DIY Window Clings for 4th of July
Create colorful and customizable window clings for Independence Day celebrations, a fun and easy craft for the whole family.
Ingredients
Materials Needed
- 1 bottle PVA Glue (white or clear) Best for clear finish and easy removal.
- a few drops Food Coloring or Watercolors To achieve desired colors.
- 2 sheets Wax Paper or Silicone Baking Mat To prevent sticking.
- 1 Paintbrush or Toothpick For drawing designs.
- 1 pair Scissors If creating shapes.
- 1 container Container for Mixing Colors For mixing glue and color.
Instructions
Preparation
- Cover your work surface with wax paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.
- In a container, mix PVA glue with a few drops of food coloring or watercolor to achieve your desired color. Stir until the color is evenly distributed.
Design Creation
- Using a paintbrush or toothpick, draw shapes like stars, stripes, or even letters on the wax paper. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch to ensure they peel off easily.
Drying
- Allow your designs to dry completely—this may take several hours depending on the thickness. Consider letting them sit overnight for best results.
Display
- Gently peel the dried clings off the wax paper and place them on your windows. Adjust as needed, and watch them stick!
Notes
Add glitter or sequins for extra sparkle! Experiment with color combinations and cut out shapes for detailed designs. Use tape on the back for extra support if needed.
