Night Time Trees
Gather:
- Two large black foam core boards
- Project display board with fold out sides
- Utility knife
- Tape
Directions:
- Cut a project display board in half so each side has a fold out hinge.
- Measure over a few inches from the hinged flap and draw a parallel line. Score the line with a knife to create another bend. Repeat this to make a few bends and circle the tree truck better.
- Cut jagged edges along the top as branches.
- Paint the trunks dark gray.
- On a black foam core sheet, draw a cloud shape edge and cut it out to make the silhouetted tree foliage.
- Add the foliage to the trunk by cutting a three inch slit on both sides of the truck near the top for the foliage piece to slide into.
