They’ll be adding depth and texture to their fall tree scene.
Please encourage them to mix and match colors for a truly eye-catching result.
Have them add more glue on top.
Repeat the process by spreading the glue with a paintbrush.
Then, have them add more tissue paper squares.
Repeat the steps, adding another layer of glue and tissue paper squares to build dimension and create a unique design.
Now, place small glue dots throughout the paper, creating spots.
