Corn husk Sun

After we made our corn husk dolls,  I was looking for opportunities to use the corn husks.  On a sunny afternoon, we made a corn husk sun. It took us 10 minutes to set up and make.

What to do with cornhusk

We tried with tacky glue but the husks were not sticking. So changed to hot glue gun.

It is a very simple project. If a kid knows to use the hot glue gun, then the kid can do this craft very easily.
