Tissue Paper Vases

This is a very simple project that even young children can do. I made some marks on tissue paper with oil pastels and then tore the sheets of tissue into smaller pieces. I adhered the tissue to the glass vase using diluted white glue and a small sponge brush. When it dried, I mixed some glitter into Mod Podge and spread a protective coating onto the vase.

When I made these with a group of four and five year olds, I kept scooting around their work table making sure the tissue was lying flat against the bottle. They would also tend to work on one area and forget to spin the bottle around to work on the other side.
