Tea cups in progress...

I am loving these tea cups! This was the first group I started with and I had cut their paper down to 6" by 18" so they look a little different, but still so cute!  I also discovered later to use the rectangle as in my previous post so we could avoid the shrinking tea cups!  Although it's a neat effect as well!  I will post more as the other classes using 12" by 18" paper are finishing up!

Stacked teacups

A recent visit to Disney World and the famous spinning teacups were the inspiration for this project!  I'll post the steps we took first and the finished examples later!  

We used rectangles with a 6" edge to determine how wide to make the top of each cup.

Continue stacking until you get to the top of the page and then finish the ellipse for the top cup.

Decorate with whimsical patterns!  These are turning out so well, I can't wait to share them!
