What you will need :
A small cardboard box
A wire
Fish stickers which are available at any stationery shop

Fish tank

First cover the box outside in deep blue paper
Then cover the inside of the box in strips of different shaded blue papers. The strips can be hand ripped or simply cut out wave shapes.
When you stick leave the upper part of the strip open so that it gives a wavy effect and you can insert the fish sticker in half way.
On the bottom of the box stick the shells with fevicol / glue.
then just go on sticking the fish stickers in and about the tank.
Cut out some wavy sea foliage from the green paper and stick on the bottom of the tank. You can add fish stickers between these so that they look half hidden.
Lastly put a hole onto the top and insert the wire to make a hook.
Your very own fish tank is ready.

More ideas:
You can add crabs, tortoise, sea horse or any other sea aanimals you want too.
You can make the foliage of different bright colors.
Instead of fish stickers you can also make them at home by drawing and cutting out fish shapes.
