Description

Craft whimsical glow-in-the-dark suncatchers that brighten your home decor and unleash creativity.


Ingredients

  • Clear plastic or glass panes
  • Glow-in-the-dark paint
  • Paintbrushes
  • Small dishes or containers for paint
  • Paper towel or cloth for cleanup
  • Optional: Glitter, markers, stencils, or additional embellishments

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Workspace: Find a clean and flat surface to work on. Lay down newspaper or a plastic cloth to protect the area.
  2. Choose Your Design: Sketch a simple design on paper to guide your suncatcher. Consider shapes like stars, flowers, or suns.
  3. Apply Glow-In-The-Dark Paint: Pour a small amount of paint into a dish. Use a brush to pick up the paint and start applying it to your template on the plastic/glass. Tip: Layer on more paint for a brighter glow after dark.
  4. Add Embellishments (Optional): If you want added flair, sprinkle glitter while the paint is still wet or outline your design with markers.
  5. Allow to Dry: Set the suncatcher aside in a safe place to dry completely before handling.
  6. Hang and Enjoy: Use suction cups or thread to hang your suncatcher in a window. Watch as it charges under sunlight and glows at night!
