First and most obvious-who doesn't love a mask? This scary/adorable mask was created using a milk jug as its skeleton. Then was taped in all sorts of layers to give it that leather, aged quality. Shoe polish was then put over it to once again achieve that aged look. The final step was putting on paint to spruce it up. An option is to add rafia for hair.
This is another great integration project. Teach about african mask and what they are used for. An earlier post mine tells more about the culture of the african mask. Worth checking out and your students will love it.
