Art Tutorial: Cardboard City - Grades K-6

In this tutorial, you will have fun creating a building using a recycled box. You can either paint it using acrylic paints or oil pastels. “Think out of the box” and come up with a fun way to decorate your building: will it be a hotel, an ice cream shop, a skyscraper or a house? If you decorate a few you can create a whole city, or stalk them up like Jenga blocks, cut an opening and it becomes a house for you pets or a doll house. Materials used: cardboard box, oil pastels or acrylic paint, medium and small brush, black sharpie, white glue or glue gun. Credits: Art from Scrap Santa Barbara
