Click the link or picture above to print it out. (Be sure to download and print at “Actual Size” from a PDF reader like Adobe Reader. If you save & print directly from your browser, it might not print at the right size.)
1. First you'll need a plastic button container. It is the perfect size! You can find these at Joann Fabrics or other craft stores. Take off the cap and empty out all the buttons. 2. Put the plastic pellets inside the bowl. (These are orginally used for handmade stuffed animals or dolls. Be careful with these as they can spill everywhere.) 3. Cut out the fish bowl background. Curve it slightly as you put it inside the bowl. You can add some tape to the back to hold it in place. 4. Finally put the two little plastic flower stems in the bowl. These were from some extra silk flowers I had around. Then cut out a fish from the printable. You can decide which direction its swimming. :) Use the invisible tape to secure it to the front. And, you're done!!
Kenley just got back from the pet store with her new fish!!
She doesn't know what to name it! Do you have any ideas? :)
