| Instructions: | |
| 1. | To make each stalk, cut three 18-inch lengths of natural-colored paper twist (sometimes called raffia paper). Untwist them, then trim the edges to resemble corn husks. |
| 2. | Fan out the husks so that they overlap and use a few drops of glue to hold them together. |
| 3. | From yellow poster board, cut out an ear of corn (about 10 inches long and 3 inches wide) and glue it atop the husks. |
| 4. | Now crumple a bunch of 3-inch colored tissue paper squares
to create rounded kernels and glue them to the ear. Lastly,
gather the husk bottoms and tie them together with a strip of
raffia.
