Supplies needed:
– paper plate – acrylic paint (color of your choice) – pink cardstock paper – googly eyes – white string – black marker – scissors – glue
Tutorial:
1. Cut out all needed details
Start by trimming off the sides of your paper plate to make a cat body. Now cut a strip out of the top to make cat ears. Use one of the side strips you cut off for the cat tail and cut out two cat feet out of the other side strip. Discard the leftover pieces. See pictures below.
2. Paint your pieces
Paint all of your cat pieces with your acrylic paint and let them dry completely. Once your paint is dry glue the feet and tail onto the cat body.
3. Cut out nose & glue white strings
Cut out a cat nose from your pink cardstock paper and glue it onto your paper plate. Cut out small strips of white string and glue them onto the sides of the nose for cat whiskers.
4. Add eyes & draw a mouth
Finish your paper plate cat craft by gluing on googly eyes and using a black marker to draw on a mouth. Isn’t it adorable? When I was a kid we had a cat named Michael Jackson that was all black except for one white paw. It’s one of those childhood memories that I’ll never forget. Do you have a pet cat?
