All you need for this jellyfish craft is a bag of Styrofoam paper plates (super cheap at Wal-Mart), some craft paint, foam brushes and then you can get to work. I chose a few different colors and paint the inside and outside of the bowls.

Twist some pipe cleaners to look like the tentacles of the jellyfish.

Using two pipe cleaners, poke a hole in the top of the Styrofoam and then twist the two pieces together.

Here’s a better look at the pipe cleaner step.

Cut a few strips of various colors and length of streamers. Another cheap buy at Wal-Mart or any dollar store. Staple them to the outside of the bowl.

Attach a few streamers to the pipe cleaners with staples.

Add a few sparkles and sequins. Then I added a ribbon to the top of the jellyfish so it can be hung from the ceiling. And there you have an easy jellyfish craft.

All you need are a few paper plates, paint and construction paper to make the fins & tail. I painted the plates various colors and let them dry. Then I stapled the fins and tail to the plate.

I made a pattern and cut out scales from scrap book paper and various colored paper.

Using regular glue, I glued the scales onto the fish, added sparkles for eyes and made sure a mouth was cut in the paper plate. These look really cute on the bulletin board!

I had a ton of old CD’s that have been sitting around for years. I glued two together, added some sparkles for the face and construction paper as the tail.

I added a ribbon to the top of the fish so it can be hung from the ceiling. You can also make this fish into a mobile by adding a couple of fish together.
