- At this point you can add hearts like William wanted, or a nice red bow, glitter, stickers, add stringed pop corn by weaving it through the fingers… Whatever you can think to add…
My kids chose red, green, yellow and brown for fall instead of Christmas, even though we were doing a Christmas project. -laughs- They told me “75′ degree weather, did not classify as winter.” It’s not in the teens at the moment so how could I argue? Then they used their hand prints as well as their younger brother and sister’s hand and foot prints… and Little Bill insisted it wasn’t complete without a heart at the top.
Funny Photographs
Materials
- Magazines
- Heavy Construction Paper
- Scissors
- Paste
Instructions
- Draw the shape of the head on a piece of heavy construction paper.
- Look through magazines and find eyes, ears, lips and a nose for your face. Maybe you could pick 2 different color eyes or a really big nose and little ears. The choice is yours.
- After you cut them out, glue the pieces on to the head that you have drawn on your paper.
- Now do you want to add accessories? A mustache, a beard, a cane and a top hat? A necklace, earrings, maybe a silly hair style?
- Finally look for arms, legs, shoes…
- Be as creative as you can be. The point is to have fun and make a silly photograph!
- If you really wanna spice the picture up, You can add an unusual background. Maybe skiing in the desert, or wearing a swim suit in the snow… So on and forth.
- Now if you really want to give it so personality, add funny objects, unusual pets, or make the people do silly things.
