Today we are going to learn how to draw a beautiful and colorful peacock. It is easy to draw and all you need is a paper, pencil, and an eraser.
First, draw two big semi-circles under each other. Next, draw a small circle in the middle for the head and then a line going down for the neck. Third, draw a body shape from the neck and two lines for the legs. Also, make two lines coming out from the bottom of the body.
In addition, draw oval like shapes for the tail feathers and a fluffy cloud like shape in the middle of the body.
You are half way done! Now, add larger feathers to the feathers you already have, an eye and a beak. After, add three curls on top of the head.
Furthermore, add another set of feathers that are larger than the others. Then, add another cloud like shape under the other.
More crucially, draw the "eye" feathers on the peacocks' feathers. To do that you have to draw straight lines from behind the peacock and a tear drop shape. Inside, draw the eye.
Finally, erase all the unneeded lines and color! Have fun coloring!
Hey guys! I'm back! Today we are going to learn how to make Pom Pom Flower Balls! This is a fun and exciting craft to make and great to hang in your bedroom! Let's get started!
Materials
- Five pieces of tissue paper (same or different colors)
- Scissors
- Curling ribbon
First of all, line up all the tissue paper so it is in a pile. Next, fold all the tissue papers in half. In addition, cut on the crease so you will have ten pieces of tissue paper. Once again, lay the ten pieces of tissue paper so they are aligned. Furthermore, fold the tissue paper all the way so it is like an accordion. Basically, you fold the top an inch down and then turn it over. Next, you do the same thing to this side and you keep doing it until you have to more tissue paper left to fold. After you have done that, trim the ends so it is in a shape of a triangle. Now, fold it in half so you can find the middle point.
More importantly, cut a small piece of curling ribbon and tie it in the middle point really tight so it wont come off. In addition, fan the two sides out and then take each tissue paper and fluff it out by pulling each piece up or down. In the end, you will have a Pom Pom Flower Ball!

Hey guys! Valentines day is around the corner so we are going to make a Heart Mobile! This is great to hang down from your ceiling and is a great February craft! Although you can make this with any shape, I am going to teach you with hearts!
Materials
- Large hoop
- String
- Red or pink construction paper
- Ribbon
- Scissor
- Glue gun
Now we are ready to start! First, cut out four pieces of ribbon. Each should be about a foot long. Next, find the middle of one string and place the middle on the hoop so it wraps around. Do this with each ribbon and tie all of them together on the top just like the picture. In addition, take the construction paper and cut about 100 small hearts. After, cut out different sizes of string and make them long enough so you can hang them up on the mobile. Cut about 50 strings Furthermore, take the glue gun and glue the small hearts to different parts of the string. Hang them up and down so it is filled with hearts!
More importanly, let it dry and then glue the top of each string to the hoop with the hot glue gun. Let it dry again. This project takes about three hours. The longest step is when you need to cut out about 100 hearts. The part where you cut the string is long as well. GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN! :o)
