Summer crafts are one of our favorites types of crafts to do. They’re colorful, exciting and fun! And while it’s still pleasant and warm outside this Lemonade craft is a must for Summer! It’s super fun and easy to set-up too. You’ll be making the ice using a super fun and unique technique and when this lemonade glass is finished, it looks amazing!
You’ll need:
- Cardstock (assorted colors)
- Glue
- Straw (optional)
- Kid-safe scissors
- Crayons (yellow/orange, white)
- White washable kids paint
- Sponge
Step one:
Using the white crayon draw a large tall glass on a piece of vertical cardstock (any color but white).
Step two:
Next, for the straw (unless you’re using a real straw) cut a long strip and a short strip of cardstock, and…
glue like a straw right onto the glass.
Step three:
Cut the sponge into .5″ x 1″ rectangle.
Press into the white washable kids paint and stamp inside the glass to make the ice.
Step four:
Using yellow cardstock cut out 2-3 lemon wedges. I used a dark yellow/orange crayon to color in and outside the lemon wedges. Glue to the inside of the glass.
Isn’t this a refreshingly fun craft? Easy, fun and perfect for summer!
