Design Your Dream Home... Is your Dream Home a tiny fairy house in a nutshell? Does it have a slide instead of stairs, landing in a swimming pool? Is it a tree house, a snail shell or a speedy house on roller skates? Using paper, card, scissors and mixed media you will draw and make your own Dream Home. You will learn simple pop-up techniques and take home a paper Dream Home drawn and made from your own imagination.
