How to turn an everyday object into an artwork

Follow these simple steps to transform an everyday object into an artwork

1.Collect your resources together. You can use anything you have to hand. We used: A pencil, paper, pens, scissors, glue and collage materials. 2.Draw your chosen everyday object. We chose a tea cup, but it could be a pen, peg or even your pencil it is up to you. 3.Make a template of your drawing on paper to make it easier to repeat it in different materals and multiple times. 4.Create multiple copies of your everyday object. 5.Play with where you want things to be. How does your object look in different colours, from different angles, repeated or even rotated. 6.When you are happy with your artwork stick them down to some paper or card.
