Flower Vases

First grade students created flower vases for our Kids Art Fair show, December 13th.  The students began by creating warm and cool colored painted paper from a variety of painting tools.  Large flowers were created from cutting the painted paper into flower petal shapes.  Students painted the background with glitter paint, then created a curved or square table top from construction paper.  A vase was created by folding a rectangle in half to cut a symmetrical vase design.  Oil pastel was used to decorate the vase with patterns and line designs.  The large flowers were added to complete the vase.
