How to Make a Printable Butterfly Dot Painting Craft for Kids – Free Butterfly Template Outline
Supplies
- butterfly printable –
- White Card stock
- Bright liquid watercolors or try these Watercolors with brush
- 5 small plastic cups or 1 for the water
First, print out the free printable butterfly template file on white card stock.
Next, pour a little of the liquid watercolors in each of the cups. I have blue, yellow, red, orange, purple and green.
Then, dip a cotton swab in a color of your choice and make a dot. Repeat, change cotton swab for each color. The more often you dip the cotton swab in the color the darker the color will be.
You could use a paintbrush and paint the picture instead. Another option is using markers and making dots.
You could outline it with salt or black glue and use watercolors with that too. Another idea, is using tissue paper to fill in the flower with crunched up pieces.
