Instructions:
1. Colour the filter paper with markers. Wet the filter paper then dry it.
2. Thread string through the bottom of the cup so that it hangs upside down. Then thread the string through the bottom of the coffee filter so that it hangs down covering the cup.
3. Cut long thin pieces of tissue paper and tape it to the base of the cup to make tentacles.
