I decorate my living room with red, white, and blue twinkle lights during the summer from Memorial Day through Labor Day. I also love making crafts for each holiday and season with my kiddos. For a recent patriotic craft, my daughter and I made some super fun and super cool paint fireworks using acrylic paint and a foam dish brush.
Materials
- Foam dish brush
- Red, white, and blue acrylic paint
- Black construction paper
- Scrap cardboard or paper plate
Instructions
- Pour red, white, and blue paint on the scrap cardboard or paper plate.
- Press the foam dish brush into the paint.
- Stamp the paint onto the black construction paper.
- Allow the paint to dry thoroughly.
- Display the patriotic fireworks.
