Flick your switches up a notch with colorful collage art.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Switch plate
Scissors Old magazines, candy wrappers, comics, and photos Postage stamps Glue Paintbrush | |
| Seasons: Birthday, Evening, Rainy day, Year round | |
| Materials: paper | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | Cut out images to cover a switch plate. Then arrange the pieces until they are just right, leaving the openings for the screws and switch clear. |
| 2. | Set the collage aside and stir up a mixture of three parts white glue and one part warm water. |
| 3. | With a soft paintbrush, coat the back of each cutout before mounting it on the plate (the glue mixture will look white when applied, but don't worry, it dries clear. Apply a final layer of the sticky stuff when the collage is complete. |
| 4. | For pieces that extend over the edge, fold them under the plate to prevent them from curling up. If curling persists when the glue is dry, apply a second coat or fold strips of clear tape along the edges of the plate. |
