Introduction: Paper Plate Elephant

I was introduced to this site by  my mums friend and she always  encouraged me to do some thing for this site.I am a student and never had the time to do big projects.Since my little brothers birthday is around the corner I decided to do this mask for him.
This is my first instructable and hope it will be accepted.

This adorable elephant craft uses a printable template and a paper plate to make a project suitable for an elephant .I down loaded from the internet and printed it to make this mask for my little brother  who turnes 10  on the 14th of Nov.
