Welcome the sunlight with these bright colorful suncatchers, made with your favorite Elmer’s glue! Please note that there is a 48-hour waiting time for glue to harden.
Materials
- Elmer’s Glue
- Cookie Cutters, any shape
- Wax Paper
- Toothpick (optional)
- Hole punch
- String or yarn
STEP 1 Lay out a piece of wax paper on a flat surface and place your desired cookie cutter shape on the wax paper.
STEP 2 Squeeze your Elmer’s Glue into the cookie cutter shape until the bottom of the cookie cutter has a nice layer of Elmer’s Glue (about 1/8” worth of glue). Try using different colors of glue in different areas of the cookie cutter for a multi-colored suncatcher or use a toothpick to swirl the colors together for a neat color effect!
STEP 3 Let the glue completely harden in the cookie cutter. This may take up to 48 hours.
STEP 4 Once hardened, remove the cookie cutter.
Use a hole punch at the top of your shape and insert yarn or string to hang your sun catcher on a window! Parents, you may need to hole punch the sun catcher for your younger children.
