Fun Faux Stained Glass Picture

If you are looking for a simple Christmas Arts and Crafts project for your students, you will love these fun faux stained glass pictures!  



We made these fun faux stained glass pictures of candles today and they came out super cute! You can use almost any coloring page if you would like a different image.

We started with these supplies:




We first put glue on the black lines and then covered them with yarn.  We found it easier to do it piece by piece, measuring the yarn first, cutting it to size, then gluing it down.






When it was completed, we wrapped it in tinfoil with the picture side upside down.



Then we pushed down to make the yarn impression show on the foil.



Then the kids used sharpies to color the insides.  We found that using the sides of the markers kept the foil from ripping.



And another final project done:

  1. They look fantastic! Did you glue the foil to the paper to keep it on? Will definitely be pinning this one!

  2. No, we didn't need to glue it on - it stayed on perfectly. We glued them to black paper though.
