We really enjoyed making our tissue paper suncatchers, so we decided to adapt the technique to make a bag.
We started off, as before, by laying out tissue paper on to a laminator pouch and putting it through our laminating machine. We made two of these.
Then, holding the two laminated pictures together, we hole-punched a series of holes around three sides of the pictures (so the holes were in the same place on each picture).
Using a large, blunt needle and some wool, Little stitched around the three sides to join her bag together. (Perfect to help develop fine motor skills.) We used the extra wool to make a handle.
A Little Original Design bag – just the right size to fit her library book.
