Follow along with Te Aonehe, age 7, and learn how to trace and cut paper silhouettes.
Materials:
• 1 piece of black paper • 1 piece of white paper • object to trace • pencil • scissors • tape or glue
Instructions:
1. Place your object on a piece of black (or dark-colored) paper. Construction paper works well. 2. Use a pencil to trace the object's outline onto the dark paper. 3. Cut out your tracing or outline, which is now a silhouette. 4. Use tape or glue to mount your silhouette on a piece of white paper.
