You’ll need:

Step-by-step instructions:

- Attach your strings: Use tape to secure the strings to the frame. You can attach them to the edges, corners, or even in the middle of the frame. Experiment with different ways to attach the strings!
- Create your pattern: Once your strings are attached, start pulling and arranging them to create your design. You can use your fingers, a pencil, or even a ruler to help you shape the strings.
- Trace your design: Once you’re happy with your pattern, trace the outline of the strings onto your paper with a pencil. You can also use a pen or marker if you want a bolder line.
- Remove the strings: Carefully remove the strings from the frame.
- Color your design: Use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to color in your design.
