Christmas Fireplaces

For art this week we made cardboard fireplaces. We used simple art and craft materials to make them. First we got a cereal box and cut along one edge of it and turned it inside out. Then we sellotaped it up so you couldn’t see the brand of the box. After that we drew and coloured a brick design onto A3 paper. When we had finished that we stuck it onto our cereal box. We used black sugar paper and crepe paper to make a fire. We decorated them by sticking stockings and Christmas cards onto it. We had a lot of fun.
