1. Take your popcorn bucket and with a ruler, find the half way point across the bucket lip and mark the lip with a pencil.
2. Draw a line down to the bottom of the bucket on both side.

4. Draw a rough outline of your super hero’s lower lip and chin on the other half of the bucket.
5. Clip out hair, eyes, a nose, ears, and eye brows from some magazines.
6. Once you have all of your face pieces cut out of a magazine or personal photo, it’s time to Glue the pieces to your rough drawing.
7. Now we are going to make a small body and cape for your hero with construction paper. You will want to save this and glue it on later. Choose whatever color that you like.
8. After all of your face pieces are glued on, cut out around the outline of your hero’s head and chin, then fold the mouth in half, and glue the little body to the bottom of the chin.
