Frye Families: Spring Flowers

Spring is in the air! To celebrate the return of spring, let paintings from our collection inspire you before making some flowers by upcycling materials you have at home.

Here are the materials you will need:

  • Paper egg cartons

  • Scissors

  • Pipe cleaners/Q-tips/straw/buttons

  • Yarn/ribbon

  • Paint/markers/oil pastel/tissue paper (to add colors to your flowers)

  • Paintbrush

  • Glue

  • Washi tape (optional; this can be used to add colors and patterns to your flowers or hold pieces together)

Once you are finished with your flowers, consider making them into a garland or arrange them into a bouquet. Or, you can create a garden! Perhaps you can take some inspiration from this read-aloud, Flower Garden.

Don’t forget to share your work with us using #FryeFromHome.
