In October half term our church is running a Holiday Bible Club. This scene is part of the decorations for the hall.
It is made using a template bought from www.creativeforkids.com. It’s a download. You need to photocopy the scene onto acetate ready to enlarge. We used an OHP (so glad we kept it!) to enlarge the picture onto material, drew the outline and then painted the picture with poster paint. In between the drawing and painting I hemmed the top to make it possible to slide a curtain rail through so we can attach the whole thing to the wall. There is just one thing to keep in mind if you want to have a go yourself – you need a lot of space and make sure you cover the floor with plastic so that if the paint seeps through it won’t matter! Finally, I am so glad that we finished this 🙂
It looks really good!
Thanks Clare – can you believe I feel like I did a workout yesterday – all that kneeling and stretching to paint it! I haven’t had a chance to read your latest post – planning on having a proper coffee break tomorrow and a nice read 🙂
I can believe it! 😀
