Send a little piece of your art to a friend to brighten their day! Be creative! Use whatever materials you have and have fun! Write a little note on the back. Maybe include some of your favorite things if they want to make one for you. Make sure to write your name so they know who it’s from. Address the envelope, remember a stamp, and mail it!

These beautiful string art designs are made on paper cardboard, cut in 4 inch circles with 16 slits evenly placed around the circle. You could also make them with 12 slits. Any embroidery floss will work. Enjoy!

Fun folded paper lesson on foreground, middle ground, and background. My kids love these! They are fun to make and can easily be turned into a card to give to someone.
