Materials

  • Clear school glue (easy to find)
  • Food coloring or liquid watercolors
  • Wax paper or plastic sheet for the base
  • A squeeze bottle (optional for precise application)
  • Craft sticks for swirling the colors
  • Scissors

Instructions

  • Begin by laying down a sheet of wax paper or a plastic sheet on your workspace. This is your canvas for the suncatcher.
  • Pour clear school glue onto the surface, spreading it lightly with a craft stick or your fingers to cover the desired area.
  • Add drops of food coloring or liquid watercolors at intervals across the glue. You can use any colors that speak to you.
  • Use a craft stick to gently swirl the colors together, creating beautiful variations in the patterns.
  • Let your creation sit undisturbed for several hours or until the glue is completely dry. The excitement of watching it transform is part of the experience.
