step 10: this is the very last step all you need to do is cut out 2 long triangles and hot glue them  in the gaps that look like a triangles. done you have created your very own mount Olympus.
step 9: to complete the roof you will need cardboard sheets that have wrinkles on them. get 3 of those wrinkly cardboard strips and get a long strip of cardboard and hot glue them on the strip  for support. after that you will need help for this you will need to tape this to the roof then hot glue gun it.

step 7: Get your fluffy, white cotton balls then hot glue them onto the board but be care full they might tear off easily.

step 6: You will need to paint your old crusty columns a brown earth colour to make them look old.

Building the throne room

I imagine that the 12 Olympians would have had a throne room where they looked over the world
Step 4: I used the large popsticks to make the furniture that I think they would have sat on.

Making the water fountain

There were 12 Olympian gods in the greek Pantheon at Mt. Olympus. They are Zeus, Hera, Posiedon, Demeter, Athena, Hestia, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus and Hades. I imagine that the Pantheon would have had a water fountain which I designed as part of my original drawing.
Step 3: To make the water fountain I began with some polished stones and attached them to the board with the hot glue gun. I then attached another cardboard roll which I had painted blue to look like water. I used some strips of cellophane and glued them inside of the roll to look like a bubbling fountain. I trimmed the cellophane and then added some glitter glue inside the stones to make it look more realistic.
