DIY Watermelon Suncatchers
Making Watermelon Suncatchers with your kids is such a fun and easy indoor activity!
Supplies:
pink tissue paper (cut into 1 inch squares)
black tissue paper (cut into small circles)
white paper plates
adhesive clear laminate shelf liner
green paint and a paint brush
tape
scissors
Instructions:
Cut the paper plate in half. Next, cut off the “plate” part leaving only the textured rim.
Paint the bottom half of the textured rim green.
Next cut a small rectangle of clear shelf liner (enough to fit inside the space in your paper plate).
Invite your child to cut small circles from the black tissue paper and place them directly onto the sticky side of the shelf liner.
Next, place small squares of pink tissue paper onto the sticky side of the shelf liner.
When the shelf liner is covered, cut another small rectangle (about the same size) and place it over the tissue paper. Trim any ragged ends.
Place the tissue paper rectangle into the paper plate (seed side out) and secure it with tape. Trim off excess edges to create a watermelon slice.
Hang in the window with tape and enjoy!
