Paper Plate Craft

We used some paper plates on Sunday and there were some leftover on my countertop, but instead of putting them away I thought it would be nice if we used them for a craft.

I grabbed some brushes and paint, we painted each plate one solid color. 

After the paint was dry, I cut all the plates like this:

Then taped that piece to make a tail:

And then we decorated them:

I am glad we were crafting, it is a hot day and the kids and I are sick. Crafting is always a great way to make time pass and we always have fun.
