Our front door window has been needing some art for some time now and suncatchers are so easy and fun to make. I used the same method as when we did our animal collage. This time I ripped up a bunch of tissue paper into little pieces for Gracie to put onto the contact paper in a collage style art work.
Gracie kept crumpling the paper into smaller balls rather than laying it flat, but it still worked just as well in the end. I would have liked her to fill the entire area, but she was done before that happened. And it still turned out beautiful. I cut the papers down a little smaller because I wanted to use some smaller left over contact paper pieces I had waiting for a smaller project. The end result was beautiful!
my bubba just made a turtle one of these the other day! i love stained glass collages. clear contact paper is one of the best things ever invented :)
