About
A 3rd grade Indian project.
My Dad is really into the Native American culture. Especially since he and I both have a good majority of it in our blood. You can see in the back ground pieces of other animals he has killed and put into good use; but this is something that I helped him do and I'm proud of.

You Will Need
-
Step 1
Cut off long piece of thick fishing string and attach the needle to one end.
*it's better to use a strong big needle rather than a little one.*
-
Step 2
Pour out your dried corn so you can see the different colors and shapes.
Pick out which ever pieces suit you best and put them in a separate pile.
Use the needle to carefully stab and drive in the middle of the corn. Be careful not to hurt your self.
*Helpful hint: the corn will not fall off and will last longer if you drive it in slowly directly in the middle.*
-
Step 3
Repeat step #2 until the corn is strung on and is the length that you desire.
-
Step 4
Lay your necklace down and pick up your skull.
*You don't have to use an Otter skull, or let alone, any kind of skull. A bone or neat looking object (such as an arrow head) can be used to replace or substitute for this project.*
Inspect the skull for any flaws or chips that could hurt you while wearing it.
-
Step 5
Find an opening in the skull and stick the string with the corn on it thru.
*make sure the the hole is big enough for the corn to go thru. Do not force it in if it does not fit; find another opening.**if you are using another bone or object, be sure that you have made a big enough opening also for it to fit.*
-
Step 6
Tie the ends together tightly. If you would like, you can burn the knot so it will melt together and stay firmly tied.
Comments
I have Native American blood also, but I do not know very much about my heritage. It makes me happy to see someone else loving the culture
