Spring-Catchers: A DIY Craft Post

Hello everyone! Today, I want to share a fun and easy craft project called "Spring-catchers". This project involves creating beautiful window art using flower and other shape templates, paint, and flowers. It's a kid-friendly activity that the whole family can enjoy together.

 I originally posted this craft back in 2015 when my oldest daughter was just a toddler, but I have updated it for you all to enjoy. I hope you have fun making these window catchers as much as we did!



Spring-Catchers
(Springtime sun-catchers)

This fun and simple craft is perfect to welcome Spring. You will need the following materials:

Materials

- Paint (regular or water paint)
- Pencil
- Template (you can make your own for tulip, sun, and flower shapes)
- Scissors
- Tape
- Flowers
- Paintbrush
- Paper

If you are working with young children on this craft, it's recommended that a parent help with cutting out the shapes

Trace and paint


Create stencils of any flower design such as tulips, daisies, sunflowers, etc. Cut out the flower stencil and use it to trace out multiple flowers and other shapes. After take your paint and apply it using a paintbrush.



Adding flowers

Apply some tape on the backside of your flower. Be sure that the sticky section is facing up. Place your beautiful flowers onto the sticky part of the tape. If you cannot pick any fresh flowers, you can simply use foam flowers, stickers, paper flowers, or craft flowers.
Apply tape on the front side - this will seal the flowers inside.
Use scissors to cut any remaining tape around the flowers.





These flower suncatchers look beautiful when displayed in a sunny window. That completes your lovely Spring-catcher decorations.
I hope you enjoyed this simple Spring craft. Please leave a comment below and feel free to share!
