The light and shadow shading really makes these pop. Did you cut 2 slits in the paper to hand the candy canes? I have a holiday art workshop next week and this would be a great project.Thanks!!
Thanks for the compliments! Mary, we just cut the bottom off the candy cane and glued it under the branch (so easy) Today the kids added a string of christmas lights to the branch and they used chalk to smear it out of the lines a little to make it look like its glowing! We also added glitter and star ornaments with gold paper!
love these!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
