2nd Grade Flower Vases With Tissue Paper Petals...

2nd Grade tissue vase project.

Using a Sharpie we drew the vase with at least 5 flowers. Next students added designs to their vases. 

Make sure to draw a table line behind your vase.

Students used watercolor to paint the vases. The last step is to added rolled up 

tissue paper balls inside the flowers. 

I have little containers to store glue in. Students simply dip the tissue balls in the 

glue and then attach them inside the flowers. 

2nd Grade Georgia O'keeffe Flowers...

Georgia O'Keeffe inspired art work by my 2nd graders.

We used a black crayon to draw the oversized Georgia O'Keeffe flowers. The flowers had to hang off the page.

Then we painting using watercolors to fill in the flower. The flower was painted  with warm colors and the back ground with cool colors. 

when the paint was dry we placed small square pieces of bleeding tissue paper around the center of the flower. When the tissue paper is dry, allow it to simply fall off, the color will stain the center of the flower.
