Activity 3 - Creative/Skills

Flower Pounding.

1. Take a walk - grab some bright coloured flowers and leaves

2.-Assemble the materials you will need:
-flowers or leaves to print
- paper, or old cloth like and old T-shirt or pillow case.
- A hammer (including ball-peen or cross-peen, if you have them)
- hard work surface (cutting board, slab of wood, etc.)
- paper towels (kitchen roll)
- scissors
- a pen
- tweezers or toothpicks

3. Place a flower on to your chosen material face down, and cover with a paper towel (kitchen roll)

4. Let the smashing begin - with your hammer, hit the surface of the kitchen roll all over the area where the flower is.

5. Check progress - peel back the kitchen roll. If the pattern of the flower is on there then you are probably done, if not put back and continue to hit with the hammer.

6. Unveil - lift of kitchen roll and peel the leaves off your fabric. If they are too wet leave to dry for a while then they will brush off.

You should have a lovely print left on fabric.

Feel free to repeat this process to make a lovely print.
