More from the 1943 book, You Can Make It – Things To Do With Scissors and Paste. Some of the crafts in this book seem pretty hard for children — even older children. These Easter favors are so cute, but honestly, I think the whole tiny strips of paper as hair idea would be tricky even for me, and I’m pretty confident it wouldn’t look nearly as good as it does in these adorable illustrations. I can’t help it, though — I’m going to have to try making at least one. The flowers, at least, look doable.
Wow… what fun! Love “olden days” crafts…..
Oh YES, I like those flowers! I have made paper hair before (not quite like this) and remember it looked pretty cute when you curled it a bit.
Those are darling! I love the ‘fruit head’! I am with you on the level of difficulty, though. I think it should say “things to do with scissors and paste, if you have a lot of time for practice”!
I’m so in love with the faces on the favors! So cute, thank you Martha!
