What do you need?
Helicopters (maple seeds)
thin twigs
watercolor
hobby glue
tiny beads
In the fall we found a lot of helicopters! Around the corner from where we live are large maple trees and we also regularly go to the Trompenburg Gardens, where there are also many. The mini-monsters gather them all up and we let them dry at home. This way we can make a craft from autumn material in the spring ;)) if you have saved some too you can craft with us, otherwise you have to wait a bit, until fall actually ...
Here is how you make dragonflies
Paint the helicopters.
Let the paint dry well.
Cut off the seeds.
Stick 1 on a twig,
Stick the wings on the twig.
Stick feelers on the head.
Stick on beads as eyes.
Allow the glue to dry well.
What beautiful Dragon Flies!
We can hardly wait for the real ones to come again, have a lovely spring!
