Egg Mosaic Craft
Supplies
• Clear Contact Paper • Multi Colored Tissue paper cut into square tiles (or whatever shape you would like) • Scissors Optional • Confetti • Iridescent Easter Grass cut into small pieces
Instructions Decide what shape you want your final suncatcher mosaic to be. We’ve made egg suncatchers about 4 inches high but you could do any shape or size you like. Once you’ve decided on the final shape and size you want your suncatcher mosaic to be, you need to cut out two pieces of contact paper big enough to fit your design on with some overlap. Leave the contact paper in a square or rectangle shape for now, DON’T CUT OUT YOUR FINAL SHAPE YET! Peel the backing off one piece of contact paper and fix your paper mosaic tiles and confetti onto the sticky surface. Peel off the second piece of contact paper and lay it on top of your mosaic pieces and confetti. Cut out the shape of your egg (or whatever shape you are making) Use sticky tape or blue tack to attach your sun catchers to the window.
Simple Mosaics For Young Kids: Because we were making simple suncatchers using a random design of the confetti and mosaic tiles the children just scattered it all over the contact paper. This method is great for young children.
Detailed Mosaics For Older Kids: If you are working with children who want to design a more detailed mosaic suncatcher it can be really useful to sketch the outline of the mosaic shape onto a piece of paper and place that under the contact paper as a guide to the area to work within or cut out the shape needed before they start. We used a free bunny cut out from http:// besttemplatess.com/ rabbit-stencils-free/ to create a bunny with a suncatchers belly.
