2. Decorate the body of the owl, either with paint or pieces of
magazine, or colourful pages with interesting patterns and
textures. Cut out small oval shapes and triangles.
Note: Of course, they are not limited to these shapes. They
could tear the paper, scrunch it up and simply go with their
creative flow.
Alternatively, they could also use tissue paper, sequins or
even bubble wrap to decorate their owls.
3. Next, add wings and eyes, securing with glue.
Note: As you can see in the image they have contrasted,
using the bumpy part of our box for wings and white printed
eyes from our magazine.
4. Continue decorating, sticking and painting the owls until you
feel that their owls are completed.
The Recycled Cardboard Owl Craft is now finished!
