"Everything Collage"

A collage is a kind of artwork made with different kinds of paper or materials glued to a surface.

Based on Smoky Night

Materials:
Lots of different kinds of papers: gum or candy wrappers, newspapers, magazines, envelopes, junk mail, any kind of paper you can find (recycled art is good for the earth!), cotton balls, straws, macaroni, any kind of pasta, feathers, seashells, beans, etc., glue, paper to glue your collage to.

Instructions:
Assemble all your materials; look at what you have collected! Begin by placing some of your materials on the paper, move them around, and decide where they look best. You are now ready to being gluing down your collage. You could start by making a border or frame around the outside edge of your paper and then glue your collage into the middle.
Happy Gluing!
