Materials: • A paper plate, cut in half • Long, thin strands of tissue or crepe paper in rainbow colors • Glue • Scissors • Hole puncher • Large handful of cotton balls • Thin string for hanging Directions: 1. Spread a thin line of glue along the edge of the paper plate, then attach the tissue papers. Tissues will be fragile; let them dry fully. 2. Dot glue all over the remainder of the plate and attach the cotton balls to create a full, fluffy cloud. Let dry. 3. Punch two holes at the top of the cloud and run the string through, tying in a ribbon or knot to create a hanger. This lucky rainbow looks great hanging in a window, where the early spring sunshine can light up its colorful bands. 26
