Yesterday Chantelle and I started making the canopic jars. She made the human and baboon while I made the hawk and jackal. We used pasta sauce jars and a paper mache mix to make them. Once they are done drying, we will be painting them and I'll take a picture of the finished work.

Here is a picture that my hubby took of me and Chantelle making 2 of the canopic jars. I am working on the hawk and Chantelle on the human. What a messy table we had that day.

Here are the 4 jars right after we make the heads. We left them near the window to dry. Today we will complete to covering ofthe jars and let them dry a few days.

Chantelle also made a model of an Egyptian garden, think the garden the Egyptian women were at in the 10 Commandments movie.

Paper towel tube pillars, construction paper trees, foil water and paper fish and turtles.
