- To accurately draw the arch shape, lay down the top edges of 4 craft sticks onto the cardstock as a guide.
- Experiment with different watercolour shades to customize your fan!
- Adult assistance required when putting holes in the craft sticks.
Steps:
1
With a pencil, outline the arched shape of a fan on a piece of cardstock.

Use paint brush and watercolours to paint a design within the arched shape. Dry 1–2 hours.

With paint brush, paint a single side of 4 craft sticks with washable paint. Dry 1–2 hours.

Add accents to the dried fan with Super Tips and glitter glue. Dry 3–4 hours.
