Craft of the Week-4 Modern Art

This craft I saw on a CBC show called "Artzooka" which I really like! They have really neat ideas and the host is kind of cute.... :) So this is a craft that is kid friendly and when its done you will have your own modern art piece to proudly hang on the wall!

Modern Art
what you will need:
- empty chip bags(rinsed out)
- duct tape
- cardboard box (cereal box works)
- scissors



A variety of different coloured bags is best


cut the bags into long strips, about an inch thick. This is Emma cutting and pulling pieces apart. (you can have some thinner or thicker. It will give it a nice effect)


Cut your box so that it resembles a "lid" keeping the sides intact. Cover the sides with duct tape (any colour is fine)

Cut the middle of the box out and fold strips of duct tape and tape them across the box to make a frame

Next weave your strips of chip bags inbetween the duct tape frame. Across first, then up and down.

She enjoyed herself a bit more then it looks like in this picture!

Trim off the excess and duct tape the sides to give it a nice finished edge
