Print Tutorial
Equipment
- Pair Of Scissors
- Glue Gun
Supplies
- Foam Core or Cardboard
- Large Plastic Cups
- Tissue Paper
- Rubber Bans
- Prizes need to be light enough so that the cup won't fall off the board.
- Paper
- Permanent Black Marker
- Cardboard for Santa's hat
- Red Craft Paint
- Cotton Balls
Instructions
- Place your prizes into the cups.
- Pre-cut tissue paper into 7” x 7” squares. For a neater look cut the tissue paper into circles.
- Add 2 layers of tissue paper to each cup. This will help get the "pop" feel.
- Wrap rubberbands around cups and tissue paper. Either use two rubberbands or double one band per cup to ensure the paper is tight enough.
- Cover all of the cups. This design has mainly white covered cups with the middle two rows being light pink.
- Once you have planned out the cup layout, add a generous amount of hot glue to each cup and add to the foam core. Hold each cup for a few seconds to let the glue set.
- Decorate your board by cutting and adding Santa's eyes and an extra paper mustache.
- Create a cardboard Santa hat and attach it to the board or the top layer of cups. You can tape or hot glue the hat on.
Notes
- Cotton balls can add extra decorations to your board.
- Leave spaces in between cups so that you can easily reuse the board.
- Use tape or school glue to lightly attach decorations.
- Don't glue anything directly to the board if you plan to reuse it for other holidays.
