Painting cut outs in Picket Fences
| | |
Posted by Gardenfairy50 z5 MI (My Page) on Sun, Jul 4, 04 at 11:13
Our master gardeners club is planting a childs garden and has picket fences that we want to cut out a hole so the child can put their face in, and on the outside have a painted object - (scarecrow, flower) or any other suggestions you may have. What we really need is patterns if anyone knows of any somewhere on the web or if they have done such a project any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance |

What a darling idea!
As for patterns - children's coloring books. Also talk to you school art teachers - not just elementary, but junior high & high school too. One of them would probably be happy to sketch some for you. Just curious - do you plan to make the holes much larger than a child's head, or quite small so that only a face shows, but a chin won't get stuck? Happy painting. |

| Good ideas, actually the holes are just small enough for the face to show. Hopefully when we finish I will post a picture. Thanks for help |

| Adorable idea! I'd include flowers, too…butterflies, bees, praying mantids, etc. :) |
