How to make
If you have a Bumble bee headdress, then the easiest thing to do first is to paint two big
pink circles for cheeks. This will make the bee very cute.
Next take a fine brush and with yellow paint, outline the pink cheeks and colour in the rest
of the face in yellow, avoiding the eyes and mouth area. Yellow is a very forgiving colour.
You could always paint big areas with a round sponge if easier.
Paint a triangular black nose. Avoid the nostril area. Now, you could leave it at that……perhaps less is more? Alternatively, you could do some black stripes across the face (maybe just two), with a fine brush and black paint. Remember to let each layer of paint dry before trying the next layer.
My daughter started to get inspired and asked for a small bee on her hand and a flower on the other hand so that the bee could get the pollen.
