Another super easy Halloween/Autumn craft project! 






Notions:


-buttons in yellow, orange and white
-glue
-black construction paper or black poster board for background (to make the paper sturdier I glued the black construction paper onto a piece of scrap poster board)
-scissors
-yellow, orange and white crayon (in retrospect it would have been better to use {neon} paint for this project)
-pencil to trace (if available white marking pencil for sewing works perfectly; or a white crayon)
-hand drawn candy corn shape or use a print out online, for example: http://www.frenchtoasty.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/candy-corn-2_coloring_page_jpg_468x609_q85.jpg)
-(optional) ruler
-permanent marker


Cost: if you have a collection of buttons on hand then the cost is insignificant.


To make:

Trace the candy corn design onto the black paper using a white pencil or crayon. Use a ruler to separate the three colors.

Use the crayons or paint to color the areas as shown here.




Glue on the buttons in color order shown above.


Set aside to dry.

Don't forget to sign and date!

 CANDY CORN HAIKU

Some people pop corn
Others will grow ears of corn
But I candy corn
