Juliette Low crafts are are a great way to teach about how amazing she was!
Juliette Gordon Low (1860–1927), often known by her famous nickname “Daisy,” founded Girl Scouts of the USA in 1912. Her goal was to create a movement where ALL girls could come together and embrace their unique strengths and passions. This is what Girl Scouts has been doing ever since she turned that dream into a reality. This adorable craft project is a great way to learn about what an amazing woman and leader she was.
Materials and Supplies Needed
This project can be done as complex or simple as desired. If making this with young girls (Daisies in particular) the background can be done with simple crayon and marker coloring. However, this tutorial is going to show the project using mixed media techniques that are really fun for older girls.

- Washi Tape
- Pencil
- Tape Runner or Glue

Directions
This project could be done with pencils, crayons, colored pencils or markers. I think it is really fun with plain pencil to get that silhouette look to the final masterpiece. The FREE PRINTABLE can be downloaded below and works great to color in with patterns or trace to cut out for all kinds of projects.
Step One
Color the silhouette pattern of Juliette Gordon Low with pencil. This is a fun practice in shading for sure.
Step Two
Cut the silhouette out and trace onto chipboard or heavy cardstock.
Step Three
Cut pieces of scrapbook paper and use a tape runner (or a glue stick for younger girls) to cover the background around the traced shape. It is okay if they overlap and go over the lines.
Step Four
Add pieces of washi tape to add character and style to your work,
Step Five
Use the adhesive to add the cut out of the Juliette Gordon Low silhouette that was colored in step one.
