room. Since you are using clear plastic with tissue paper it looks almost transparent.

- Scotch tape
- ELMERS or White glue
- Acrylic Paint (White, Black, Blue)
- Colour gift wrapping tissue paper
- 20 guage wire, 28 guage wire
- Small paint brush

The Pattern

Making the Fish
Print out 4 hard copies of the 4 different fish.
Cut roughly along the outline of your fish, then cut out along the dotted lines in the middle. Make 2 sets of the same shape.
Put a cut out fish on a clear film sheet with masking tape. This will prevent the fish from slipping away from the film.
Close all "V" areas with Scotch Tape.
Make a hook with 1 1/2" of 28 guage wire. Position the hook in the mid section with tape.
Make sure the bottom of the hook is well knotted to prevent it from slipping out.
