I personally LOVE owls!! They are so majestic and down right beautiful with those big eyes!!! And as a teacher, I have to incorporate owls in my lessons, on my bulletin boards, my door , etc. because I love them sooo much!! Here is a really cute idea on how to make fun, colorful and funky looking owl with minimum work!!
Here is what you will need:
Here is what you will need:
Colorful construction paper
Scissors
Glue/tape
Markers
I like to cut out the pieces of my owl first , that way it is easier for me to put my owl together at the end. The owls will have 2 big eyes, a belly and two owl wings. Cut those out and set them aside...
Next, its time for the body. Fold the piece of construction in half, then draw your outline on one side of the paper to be your guide. you have the option to give the owl ears or not. i opted to have ears so i created a point towards the top of the paper then came out into a circle then slightly went inward with the line then out again into more of a oval shape.
Keep the paper folded and cut!
Now is the fun part!!!! gather the other pieces and begin to put the owl together. Make sure to start with the belly first, then the eyes, then the wings!!! {**side note: you can create a more 3D look with the wings by cut small slights in the edges of the wings}
the last part of the owl in the beck. Now, you can just cut a small triangle and let that be it or you can fold the triangle at to center slightly to give the 3D effect. the choice is yours!!!
THAT IS IT!!!! You can also add accents or bows to make your owls look even more funky and cool!! Let your creativity shine through!!!
