Bubble Wrap Fall Corn Craft
Don’t tell me bubble wrap is corn-y. Get it? Am I corny? Anyway, since we’re really into crafting with bubble wrap these days, our next thought went to fall. Turns out, the bubbles in the wrap are perfect for the kernels of corn in our Bubble Wrap Fall Corn Craft!
Not only is this a bubble wrap craft, but we’ve made the whole thing with a paper bag. A favorite craft supply and a favorite art process for a favorite season and a newly favorite fall craft. Corn’s a favorite, too. I really love corn. It’s corn!
Bubble Wrap Indian Corn Craft
To make this fun Indian corn craft, you will need a brown paper lunch bag, a sheet of bubble wrap, acrylic paint in yellow, orange, red, and green with a paintbrush, and scissors.
Paper Bag Corn Craft Supplies Needed
- Paper bag
- Bubble wrap
- Acrylic paint – yellow, orange, white, red, green
- Paintbrush
- Scissors
Fall Corn Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin by gathering your fall paint colors and a sheet of bubble wrap. Try your best to refrain from popping all the bubble wrap.
Use a paintbrush to paint the sheet of bubble wrap with fall Indian corn colors: red, yellow, orange, and white.
Once the bubble wrap is painted, fold the flap of the paper bag back and press the front of the paper bag into the bubble wrap. Make sure you press all areas as evenly as possible.
Lift the paper bag from the bubble wrap. Let the paint dry.
When the paint is dry, make sure the flap is back in place and paint the flap green. Insert a scrap of paper between the flap and body of the bag before painting to make sure the green paint doesn’t go where it’s not supposed to. Let this dry completely.
Then, when all the paint is dry, cut a long V shape into just the top of the flap of the bag. Make sure you don’t cut beyond the fold of the flap or you may ruin the bag.
Lastly, round the top of the body, or corn, part of the bag.
Corn-y? Only in the best way possible!
