Instructions

  1. How to Make a Farm Layout

    • 1

      Use the sandpaper to smooth the door on both sides.

    • 2

      Use a pencil to sketch out the basics of your farm. Mark in roads, pastures, crops and a place to put the barn and farmhouse. Maybe sketch in a kitchen garden near the house site. At one end you might draw in a small town with a store and a school or maybe a neighboring farm.

    • 3

      Use the white, brown, black and green paints to paint the major features of the layout. For the barn site and farmhouse site, paint a square or rectangle that will accommodate those toys. Be sure to paint around the edges of the door.

    • 4

      Use the other colors and smaller brushes to paint in the details. Paint in the crops, rows between the crops, lines on the roads, flowers and some little animals.

    • 5

      Let the front of the farm dry, then flip it over and use the drill to attach the four wheels.

    • 6

      Seal the front painted part of the door to protect it against animals, tractors and pickup trucks.
