Paper-Plate-Girl-Craft

1. Start with your face on the bottom of your paper plate: Add googly eyes with glue or draw on a face with markers. Cut out a triangle nose from construction paper, cardboard, or recycled paper.

2. Then make your hat: Trace your shape on cardboard or paper and cut out carefully. Add a cute flower or other decoration to the hat if desired using paper. Then glue (or double stick tape!) your hat onto the plate.

3. Add hair: Cut 1 inch think strips of paper and fold back and forth for a bit of crinkle. Attach to your hat with glue or tape.

4. Lastly, add your scarf: Tie a piece of string or yarn into a bow and glue on. Voila! This cute little paper plate girl makes an adorable decoration for the house!
