Yield: one aquarium

Supplies:

Steps:

  1. Heat small sections of the plate with the hairdryer and use the crayon to color the plate blue. The heat of the hairdryer will make the crayon melt, so that will look as if you are painting with the crayon.
  2. Spray the bottom part of the plate with the contact glue and while the glue is still wet, sprinkle sand over the glue. Shake off any excess sand and allow to dry thoroughly.

  7. Glue the wiggle eye in place.
  8. Glue the fish to the plate.
  9. Cut sections from the pipe cleaner and glue these to the plate to make sea weed.
