Watercolor Coffee Filter Rainbows

Watercolor Coffee Filter Rainbows can be created with a few simple supplies that you probably already have around the house.

Here’s what you’ll need to create Coffee Filter Rainbows:

• Coffee Filters
• Washable Markers
• Craft Paper: White and Pink
• Googly Eyes
• Craft Glue
• Gallon Size Zipper Bag or Metal Baking Sheet Pan
• Water Spray Bottle
• Scissors, Pencil, and Permanent Marker

 

• Flatten round coffee filters and add colors in circles, in rainbow order, with the washable markers.
• Place on a gallon size zipper bag or metal baking sheet pan and then mist with a water spray bottle. Watch the magic as the colors blend and swirl!  
• Leave on the zipper bag and set aside to dry.

• Once dry, fold coffee filters in half and cut along the fold with scissors.
• You will create two rainbow shapes from each coffee filter.

• Draw a cloud shape onto white craft paper and cut out with scissors. Attach cloud to rainbow with glue.
• Draw two circular cheek shapes onto pink craft paper and cut out with scissors.
• Assemble and glue the face on the cloud.  
• Draw a smile on the face with a permanent marker.
