Rainbow Wax Suncatchers


These rainbow wax suncatchers were simple to create and a wonderful way to bring a splash of color to our windows while we wait for spring!

To create you will need

Crayons in the colors of the rainbow
pencil sharpener
wax paper
iron
regular paper

To begin:
Create shavings from your crayons, separating into little piles of each color of the rainbow as you go.
Sprinkle your shavings into rainbow layers on your wax paper.


Until it looks something like this!


Place wax paper over top of your rainbow.


Place it between two sheets of regular paper and iron it on low.


Cut out your rainbow.


Place in a window like this to catch the sun or...


Cut out shapes from your rainbow. 
We were feeling the love so we decided on hearts!



They now brighten up our dining room offering us some colorful love to brighten our days.

Rainbow Heart Transparencies


Here's a super easy way to decorate your abode for the upcoming day of LOVE…

Rainbow Heart Transparencies

To make your own you will need:
cardstock
tissue paper (rainbow colours and white)
scissors
glue stick


To begin cut out a heart shape…cut out the inside too.


Now using your glue stick, glue white tissue paper to the underside.


Then…cut out strips of rainbow coloured tissue paper…
layer it side by side in the colours of the rainbow.


Trim off all the excess and it should look like this…pretty huh?



To put up in the window I put a few dabs of glue, (with the glue stick), on the backside…
the glue washes off easily when they come down…I find it looks nicer than tape and holds really well.

And that's it!  These are so easy to whip up…and they look so pretty.
Here's to celebrating LOVE in all its glory!
