Go to school with something tasty
by Ruth Winter

Create your own lunchbox design and you can make sure your sandwiches never get mixed up with someone else's!

Ask a grown-up to help you with sharp tools if you need to.

Pheobe's "designer" lunchbox.

Collect all equipment first.

You will need

A pair of scissors

Masking tape

Card

Enamel paint (at least two colours)

Plain plastic lunchbox

Paintbrushes (and some pain brush cleaner)

N.B. Wear some protective clothing

Step 1

Draw a small bold design onto the card. We have chosen a fish.

A simple design works best.

You may need an adult to help.

Step 2

Cut out the centre of the design creating a stencil. Leave enough of a border around the stencil so that it can be taped into position on your lunchbox. Repeat this process at least four times.

Step 3

Tape all four of the stencils in position on your lunchbox in whatever pattern you chose. We have put two fish along the top and two along the bottom leaving the middle free.

We like the fishy option!

Don't forget to wear an apron.

Step 4
Now you can paint the stencils. Take a brush an choose a colour. Dab paint through the stencils onto the lunchbox until evenly covered. Leave to dry then
carefully lift the stencil off.

Step 5

Take another colour and using a small brush, paint your name along the centre of the box or wherever you like. Make sure you space the letters out. Add some wave shapes and paint in some eyes onto the fish.

You never know, your design may even inspire Mum or Dad to be a little more creative with your lunchtime sandwiches!

Next cover your school books with style
