Here's an absolutely stunning faux stained glass project my junior high students recently finished. These are made from black construction paper and tissue paper. They took about a month or so to finish, due to the intricate nature of all the steps. To start off, I showed students a slideshow about the stained glass in Western Europe during the Middle Ages. I showed them a video of how stained glass is made (the technique hasn't really changed in hundreds of years!). So then students started planning their own design. It could be any subject matter. I demonstrated how to make one using thick black construction paper. The key thing is you don't want the lead lines too this. I told them a minimum of 1 cm thickness, but many made them thinner! This resulted in lots of torn bits that they had to tape together on the back. So here are the basic supplies- mini cutting boards, x-acto knives and parchment paper. Make sure you use good quality and nice pure black construction paper. Tru-ray is the best brand in my experience. Anything less than that doesn't not cut cleanly and is too flimsy. To make it symmetrical, some student folded their paper in half vertically. They drew their design in white pencil crayon. Shading in what needs to be cut out really helps. Include a border as well, to hold the whole thing together. A finished cut piece. Then cut a sheet of parchment paper slightly larger and trace the black paper outline onto it and cut that out. This will be what you glue the tissue paper too. There are two ways to attach the coloured tissue paper. I call the first way kaleidoscope. Using watered-down glue, just collage various ripped colours of tissue onto the parchment paper And voila. Let the tissue paper dry and then glue the black paper on top carefully using white glue. The second method is if students want a specific colour for each section. You basically cut tissue slightly larger than each space and glue stick it on the back. This technique takes a bit longer. Here's some more progress photos: back view I hung these in a long hallway with lots of windows and they looked stunning with the light shining through!
When I said I'd created gifts for the Beaver Patrol, you knew I'd made coordinating cards, right? --------- Dimensional Beaver Cards Materials: brown cardstock white cardstock paper trimmer scissors brown marker black marker craft glue Steps: Prepare the materials. Use the paper trimmer to cut: brown cardstock - 9" x 3.5" white cardstock - 8.5" x 3" With scissors, cut: two white teeth two white eyes two brown ears one brown nose one brown tail Use the brown pen to outline the nose and draw crosshatches on the tail. Use the black pen to draw pupils on the eyes. Fold the brown paper into thirds. Glue two teeth onto the top and two ears on the sides. Center the white paper on the brown paper and glue it in place. It will trap the ears and the teeth. Refold the brown paper, which will add folds to the white paper that is now glued to it. Glue the nose and eyes to the front of the card. Fold a small flap on the end of the tail, then glue that tab to the card. You want the tail to flop down when the card is out of its envelope... .... but fold up for mailing. Quick trivia question: What do you call a group of beavers? Answer: Colony. Steve used all of the beaver cards I made, but I like them so much I may need to make more. Although now that I think about it, are there occasions that really call for a beaver card? International Beaver Day is April 7, so maybe that's just the occasion I need to justify more cards.
