Try this fun necklace your child will love to make and wear, made from things you already have on hand.
Approximate Time: 30 minutes
Supplies:
- cardboard
- aluminum foil
- tape
- paper punch
- paint
- wax paper
- white glue
- toothpick(s)
- paint brushes
- yarn
Instructions:
Cut a simple shape from cardboard and cover it with aluminum foil. Tape the ends of the foil to the back of your shape. Use a paper punch to make a hole at the top of your shape.
Choose paint colors for your design and make a few little pools of paint, one for each color, on a piece of wax paper. Add a little white glue to each pool of paint, and use a toothpick to mix the glue with the paint.
Use paint brushes to paint a design on your foil shape. Allow the paint to dry. Thread a length of yarn through the hole at the top of your sparkle shape and knot the ends of the yarn together to make a necklace.
