Eid Festive Sheep {Tutorial}

After we made our Star banner yesterday, we have a lot of left over tissue paper. We decided to make a festive sheep that will sit on our table to help us celebrate Eid!

 

Usually you see these sheep directions for white cotton balls for the sheep’s coat. But our sheep is very excited about Eid and wanted a full color coat!

 

And really, it’s it much cuter in color?

 

Supplies

Paper plate
