Description
Create beautiful sun catchers that catch the light and brighten your home with vibrant colors and personal style.
Ingredients
- Clear plastic sheets or old CDs
- Colored tissue paper or cellophane
- Scissors
- Mod Podge or glue
- Paintbrush (if using Mod Podge)
- String or fishing line (for hanging)
- Decorative items (optional: beads, glitter)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Workspace: Find a clean, well-lit area to work. Lay down newspaper or an old cloth to protect surfaces from glue.
- Create Your Design: Use scissors to cut your plastic sheet or CD into your desired shape—circles, stars, hearts, etc. Decide on a color palette with your tissue paper or cellophane.
- Apply Glue: If using Mod Podge, brush a thin layer onto the plastic surface. Lay down small pieces of tissue paper, overlapping them as desired.
- Final Touches: Apply another layer of Mod Podge on top to seal the colors and allow the sun catcher to dry completely.
- Add Hanging Mechanism: Once dry, punch a small hole at the top and tie a piece of string or fishing line to hang your creation in a window.
Notes
Mix materials such as beads or glitter for extra sparkle. Experiment with different shapes and designs.
