Spring flowers craft ideas

Here are a couple Spin Art Tips:

• Lots of small blobs in the middle or drizzling it across the paper works best.
• Don’t put too much paint or you’ll just end up with a big ball of paper and lots of wasted paint at the bottom.
• You don’t want to spin too long or too fast or the colors completely blend. You want to do it 5-9 times slowly to create a beautiful mix of colors.
• Don’t use your good salad spinner! Use one you find at a garage sale, your pitching, or you find at a dollar store.

Flower craft ideas

Let your paper dry. completely.

To make your spring flower craft you will need a completely dried spin art made on a coffee filter and a large straw. [You can use any straw if you use a small rubberband to hold the flower closed & on the straw]
