Not Enough Tree Ornaments? One Class Makes Its Own
Abstract design of colored plastic toothpicks stuck together with cement; heavy aluminum foil twisted crimped and glittering in the colored lights; these are only two of the unusual Christmas tree decorations fashioned by the Methods in Art Education class.
One of the favorites is to dip colored cord in paste and lay it on a waxed paper design. After it is dry it will be rigid and can be made glittery with golden glitter powder.
Students have brought in an array varying from egg shell scenes to frosted cookies.
Each student has made an unusual tree decoration of ordinary materials and hung them up for display in 109 Bailey Hall.
Miss Maud Ellsworth, associate professor of education, said the object was to teach how to determine just how big the decorations should be to the size of the tree and how many decorations to hang on the tree.

One variation of this was to dip string in plaster of paris and wrap it around an inflated balloon. After the string hardened the balloon was deflated and the string remained rigid.
Some took egg shells and removed a portion the size of a fifty-cent piece. Then, they created scenes inside the shell from pieces of paper or seeds. The shells were vividly painted.
