"Arm" Tattoos

Jr. High students began work on tattooing their "arms" soon after JCYF.  Students made a paper mache arm to use as a surface for tattooing.  Here's the visual process.

First, we wet strips of  plaster wrap and applied them to pool noodles or old water bottles.

 

 


It was a bit messy . . .

Once dried, students decorated them any way they wanted using sharpies.  Some chose patterns, others created/copied different things they liked.  They then added color with markers/sharpies.

 

 

 

 


And here are the finished products. . .

 

 

 

Some were very detailed, others colorful, some were both!  They stayed busy, quiet, cleaned up their messes and had fun!  I hope all future projects run as smoothly :)

.  Thanks for stopping by!
