Simple Instructions:

Use the bottom of a large can or an ice cream container lid as a template for your circle.  Trace a large circle onto your construction paper. You can also draw freehand if you prefer. Cut out the circle from the construction paper and then cut out an inner circle so there is about a ½ inch ring remaining. Using the same circle template, trace and then cut 2 circles from the clear contact paper. Peel the paper off of the first circle of contact paper and place on a table, sticky side up. Carefully place the construction paper ring on top. Cut blue and green tissue paper into small squares and then arrange on the sticky contact paper to create a “globe” design. Once you are happy with your design, remove the paper from the second piece of contact paper and place it, sticky side down, on top of the tissue paper.  Trim excess contact paper. Punch a hole in the top of the globe and tie a loop with string or raffia so the globe can hang.
