the other day we were in walmart
and i saw these blue polka dot paper plates in the clearance section
bluuuuuue pooooolka dooooots (zombie voice)
it’s like a magnetic force … pulling me to the polka dots
ok.
so we got them. and i thought about this garland i saw on pinterest
… it’s from a cute blog called a little delightful
but those are suns, and these plates looked like clouds
but rainbows are like all buddy buddy with clouds too right?? so we went with it.
it’s one of the crafts that i put down on our summer bucket list
and the girls were excited to make it
it was really simple, we just cut the plates in half
then punched holes along the curved edge
then went to town with the rainbow part
they put ribbon & twine on some
fabric & yarn on some too … i like how they look all wonky 🙂
we strung them all on some twine and hung it up in the craft room
across the top of the window.
summer crafts are the best ♥
happy crafting

Super duper cute!! The top part could even be cut a bit scalloped instead of straight to make it even more cloud like. =)

Your garland is so cute, great project to make with kids. It looks so great over your window. Think I might just need to make one also just for the fun of it and cheer up one of my craft rooms. I love colors and the plates how you used them, only limited to an imagination. You've truly inspired me. Happy days
