Supplies Needed:
Instructions:
1.
Color carton pieces
Begin by cutting apart your egg carton into individual sections.
We used eight sections for our dragon but I thought it was a little long.
Make your dragon whatever length you want.
Paint the egg carton pieces with your red paint (or the paint color of your choice).
Once they are dry, add some gold metallic paint onto your egg carton pieces.
Let them paint dry completely.
Tread yarn trough egg carton
Thread a piece of yarn onto your yarn needle.
Sew each of the egg carton pieces together.
Add glitter sticks to carton pieces
Cut a few Glitter Sticks into 4 sections.
Bend the sections in half to make a point.
Make teeth & flames
Cut two slits in the front of your dragon face to define the dragon mouth.
