Directions:

First download and print the FREE corn shape printable listed above.
Use your choice of coloring material to color in the husk of the design.
Next up – use scissors to trim out the corn shape, as well as the center of it.
Now grab your contact paper and cut two pieces the same length.
Take off the protective paper off one and lay it on a flat surface.
Lay your paper cutout on top of the contact paper, face down so it sticks.
Go ahead and at this time, sprinkle a small amount of loose craft glitter in the inside the shape.
Now grab your yellow & orange tissue paper and cut it into small squares.
Have your child place it on the contact paper, inside the design, to make a beautiful mosaic piece.
Once done, grab the other piece of contact paper and remove it’s protective sheet.
Then lay it on top of the other piece and press firmly, making sure every corner is stuck together.
To finish off the Stained Glass Corn Cob, use your scissors to trim out the design.
Then use some tape to display it proudly on a window or on a fridge!
