Dots!
We have a grá (Irish for love!) for dots. Here's a fun project to do with friends and family – in person or virtually.
Supplies
-
Paper (any size but we like 5-1/2"x8-1/2")
-
Black markers
-
Dot stickers or trace and color in a quarter or bottle cap
Steps
-
Place one or more dots on a piece of paper
-
Doing a drawing that incorporates the dot. Perhaps an animal, vehicle, place, insect, robot, alien, bug, sport or food. The possibilities are as limitless as your imagination!
-
Hang them up together as a quilt and enjoy the variety of ideas.
Doodle
’wan (Irish for go on)! This is a truly satisfying artistic adventure!
-
Use one of our templates like the clover or create your own outlined drawing.
-
Fill it in with doodle patterns.
-
Color it to your heart's content.
There's no arseways (Irish for wrong way!) to do it!
For added fun, add text to tell a story about the drawing. It can be dialogue, caption, quote, or poem.

We're showing two versions:

-
Traditional square Notan, a 4-directional flip
