Stain Glass Cross

This is a GREAT Sunday School project.  I did it for Easter, but "the cross" is always a good lesson, year around.  You can also cut different shapes out for different seasons.  Last September, I did a stain glass leaves for fall. Use your imagination :-)

What you need:

1. Clear contact paper
2. Colored tissue paper
3. Scissors
4. Ribbon

What you do:

1. Cut the tissue paper into small one inch squares
2. Cut a large piece of contact paper (large enough for your cross) and lay STICKY SIDE UP
3. Lay the tissue pieces down on the sticky side in a random order, barely overlapping each other
4. Cut another piece of contact paper and lay it down so that the sticky sides of the two pieces of contact paper are touching each other
5. Cut your cross out
6. Make a hole at the top for your ribbon
7. String ribbon and tie a knot

What a beautiful, yet simple project. - Rejoicing in the Present
