Adding Color to Our Playroom Window.

I got the idea for this activity off Pinterest <---- Love Love Love Pinterest!!

Here are almost all the supplies needed for this activity. I just left out the sponge paint brushes and I also used a paper cutter but scissors will work just fine.

 This big pack of tissue paper was on sale for $5 and I knew it would come in handy for other projects as well so I went ahead and bought it.  I only used one big sheet of each of the bright colors and ended up having a bunch of left overs.

First I started out just cutting random size pieces with the paper cutter and then used the scissors to cut even smaller pieces. The kids were able to help with this part.

Here is the stack of cut tissue paper with a bunch of different sizes.

Then we started decorating some of the pieces, everyone got to participate in this process!  We also cut out some of our own designs.

 

                             

                                          

Then I added a little bit of water to Elmers Glue, just to allow a smoother spread. I squirted it onto the sponge paint brush and applied it to the window in sections. After I applied some we would put the tissue paper on it before it dried and then move on to another section.

 Here is the half way point. It's starting to look good!

 Here are a couple close ups of some of our designs.

 Here is the finished product looking at the window from the outside at night time. It's beautiful! We covered the window in the play room so the colors are perfect!  We also discovered that no one can see in the window from the outside, so there is no need for us to close the blinds and hide our beautiful work! What do you think of our window?
