Stained "Glass" Windows
This was a great craft and the melted crayon stained glass looked more real than using colored tissue paper. Some kids melted two colors together and the leaves looked like real fall colors.
**Parental supervision is recommended.**
This project is rated EASY to do.
Materials Needed:
-
Black Construction paper - Wax paper
- Crayons or pieces in fall colors
- glue
- safety scissors
- iron (adults only please!)
Steps to Take:
- Take the construction paper and cut it into 5" x 5" squares.
- Take 2 pieces and trace a leaf on the top square and cut out the leaf on both pieces of paper.
- The squares will be solid around the edges with a leaf pattern cut out of the center.
- Next shave the crayons, using the colors of fall leaves. Using a warm iron, melt the crayon shavings between two pieces of wax paper.
- Cut down the wax paper to fit between the two squares of construction paper.
- To assemble the window, place one square of construction paper on the table and glue your wax paper glass to that square.
- Then place the second square over the first square making sure your leaf pattern matches up and glue the two squares together.
**Tips**
When tracing the leaf, I traced it on the paper on the diagonal so when we
hung them they were hung from the corner of the square.
We also used those little suction cups with the hook on it to hang it on windows. You can find these at most craft stores.
