Coffee Filter Bow

I came up with this idea by using a coffee filter.  I tried it with a piece of toilet paper, but the designs bled right through.  So instead, I used a coffee filter.



Supplies:
  • Stickers
  • Dot Paints
  • Coffee Filter
  • Marker
  • Scissors
  • String
  • Hair clip (not shown)


1.  Flatten the coffee filter out


2.  Draw a circle in the middle





3.  Cut the circle out


 4.  Now you have a circle


5.  Use the dot paints to make designs on it (note from Mom:  put a magazine or something under the filter so the paint doesn't bleed on your table!)


 6.  You have a designed circle


7.  Fold it like an accordion





8.  Pinch it in the middle


9.  Twist it where you pinched it


10.  Cut a string a few inches long


11.  Tie the string around the middle and trim the ends





12.  Put the clip in the middle


13.  Put your sticker on it


 14.  You have made a coffee filter bow!





Thanks for visiting!  See you next time!
