Rainbow Craft

Supplies:

• Wooden Rainbow
• Paint, I used the standard rainbow colors red,orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, violet
• Brush
• Hot Glue Gun and Sticks
• White Felt Balls

Butterfly

• 4 Burlap Leaves
• Paint

Bee

• 2 Wooden Beads
• Paint
• Twine
• Button

Instructions:

First, I painted the rainbow. I did not go in the correct order of colors, instead of starting with red I started with orange. I’m not a good painter and found it difficult to cover the inside well without getting the wrong color on the outer ridges. Using a small brush made this easier.

I hot glued three wool felt balls on the bottom of each side of the rainbow. You could also use cotton balls instead.

To make the butterfly I painted four burlap leaves. I twisted the leaves together two at a time and then twisted both pairs together. Once they are twisted together I wrapped the wire around the center and made antennas with the left over wire.

To make the bee I glued two wooden bees together and painted them yellow. I put some hot glue in the middle and used twine to make the wings and put a button on top.

Then I hot glued the butterfly and bee on the rainbow. This craft was so fun! Hope you give this a try!
