In honor of recent and upcoming festivals of Mardi Gras, Carnival, Purim, Holi, and the Asian Lunar New Year Lantern Festival, we will be making a variety of things this week on 3/1/18. Bring any materials you would like
to use or share, and we will make costume masks, hats, or crowns, or painting with bright colors. It is also the time for making lanterns (see what we made 2017)."People wear masks and costumes during many such celebrations, allowing them to lose their everyday individuality and experience a heightened sense of social unity."
Colored feathers especially solicited, if anyone has extras to spare!
Other materials ideas:
- Felt
- Thread
- Beads
- Colored paper, foil, etc.
- Paint, glitter markers, etc.
- Scissors, glue, ribbon, elastic
Last year we had fun making felt Hamentaschen for Purim.
