I made
adorable peas in a pod door decs for my residents this year and they
all LOVED them. Buy dark green foam paper and cut it into the shape
of a pea pod. (Kind of like a banana shape) Then take a lighter shade
of green foam paper and cut out a circle (pea) for each roommate. I
glued googley eyes onto the peas and cut out big pink lips then wrote
their name on the pea pod below each pea. I also glued and curled a
2-inch piece of brown pipe cleaner and two green leaves to the end of
the pea pod. These turned out wonderfully and they were easy.
I suggest
using hot glue and trying to find foam paper with an adhesive backing
for the peas--it just makes it a bit easier.
Enjoy!
