Cherry Blossom Craft: Easy Cotton Ball Painting For Spring

Ingredients

  • White cardstock or printer paper
  • Brown paint and paintbrush
  • Paper plate
  • Pink and white paint
  • Clothespin
  • Cotton ball

Instructions

  • Paint the Branches: Start by painting brown branches on your white cardstock or printer paper. You can make them as simple or as intricate as you like. Allow the paint to dry completely.
  • Prepare Your Paints: Pour some pink and white paint onto your paper plate, mixing parts of them slightly to get different shades of pink.
  • Create Blossoms: Attach a cotton ball to a clothespin to use as a makeshift paintbrush. Dip it into the pink paint and gently press onto the branches to make cherry blossoms. Use different shades of pink and some white to add depth and make your blossoms look more realistic.
  • Let It Dry: Once you've finished adding blossoms, set your artwork aside to dry completely.
