I’ve been wanting to make this one for weeks! Lorelai was sooo excited when she found out we were making another suncatcher for the window. =)
What We Used:
- 2 Pieces of Cardstock (to print on)
- Pairing Knife
- Scissors
- Wax Paper
- Green Tissue Paper
- Green Crayons/Paint (optional)
- Glue
Glue-Down Layers:
- 1 prepared cardstock sheet, watermark up
- 1 piece of wax paper
- tissue paper
- 1 piece of wax paper
- 1 prepared cardstock sheet, watermark up
Directions:
- Print out TWO sheets of the clover printable.
- Cut out the INSIDES of the clovers. You can use scissors, but I definitely recommend using a sharp pairing knife (or an Exacto). Trust me, it’s SO much easier that way.
- Have your child color or paint (optional). Lorelai wanted to color, so that’s the route we took. =)
- Cut two pieces of wax paper, a little smaller than the sheet of paper. This is only going to show through the “window”/clovers.
- You need to look at the two clover sheets. I put a little watermark thing in the bottom left corner. Lay ONE clover sheet down with the watermark facing up. You’re going to glue one piece of wax paper down. I just outlined the clover with glue (shown above).
- Now it’s time to cut out your tissue paper. I just chose squares since they are the easiest. Just fold the tissue paper and cut out once. If you do individual pieces, it will take a while.
- On top of the wax paper you just glued down, add more glue in the clover ‘window’. You need to cover the entire opening with glue and tissue paper. (shown)
- Once the entire clover is covered in tissue paper, glue down the other piece of wax paper on top in a similar fashion as the first piece.
- Last, you’re going to glue down the top sheet. Make sure the watermark is facing up and on the bottom left so that all of the edges line up correctly.
