4th of July Glitter Fireworks Picture Craft 1

This 4th of July glitter fireworks craft is very simple and fun to make.

Materials:

• sheet of black construction paper
• white glue
• glitter
• shallow dish to catch the glitter

Directions:

1. Use white glue and draw star like fireworks shapes.
2. Sprinkle glitter over the glue and then pour off the excess into a dish. Do one color glitter at a time as no to mix up the excess. Allow to dry.
3. Hang up your Independence Day art.

Variations:

• Instead you could just use glitter glue. It's easier and produces less wastage, but not quite as fun.
• Twist a bunch of pipe cleaners together and fold down the ends into a star shape. Pipe glitter glue on the pipe cleaners and press it onto the paper like a stamp. Turn and stamp several times in the same place for a neat effect. This idea came from the 4th of July Fireworks T-shirt craft. Check it out. Follow the link for a cool video tutorial.
