We are officially on vacation which means no crafts but we did do some fun activities before we left in preparation of one of our 1st stops - The Georgia Aquarium! :)
We did a mini ocean theme in between my packing, shopping and working - I planned so much more than we got around to doing so we will most likely pick up where we left off when we get back home but for now you can take a peek at the fun we did get have!
Craft - Easy Paper Towel Roll Octopus:
What You Need:
paper towel roll
(you can do a TP roll but the length of a paper towel roll gives nice long tentacles!)
paint
brushes
What We Did:
1. Paint your paper roll completely and allow to dry
(we did this project over 2 days)
2. Once your tube is dry cut lengthwise to make 8 tentacles
3. Using a pencil or marker roll each strip and then unroll so that it has a slightly curved look
4. Add dots to each tentacle - we used glitter paint but you can use marker, dot stickers, etc.
5. Add wiggly or draw eyes and a mouth & voila -
you now have a cute lil octopus friend!
