- Age Guideline: 6 Years and Up
- Time Required: 45 minutes (Does not include drying time)
The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.
Materials Needed:
- Construction Paper
- Cellophane Tape
- Clear Con-Tact Paper
- Scissors
Instructions:
Cut 10 strips of construction paper (I used black), each should be approximately 2-inches thick and 24-inches long. Lay them down side by side and secure the tops with a piece of tape.
Cut 12 strips of paper, whichever color you want, each should be approximately 2-inches wide by 22-inches long. You will use these pieces to weave through your taped pieces.
Weave each piece through the taped pieces until you get your completed placemat. Once it is done, cover both sides with clear contact paper and it will last for a long, long time!
