Heart Shaped Clay Rainbow Fish

Clay Heart Shaped Fish Craft

Hi friends! Did you happen to catch my Paper Plate Ice Cream Cone tutorial that went live the other day?

Well – today’s rainbow fish craft made from clay  really goes hand in hand with it. With summer sadly coming to a close son, I wanted to share another kid friendly fish craft centered around the hot season {before pumpkins and Halloween start to consume to my blog}

The other day I was cleaning out my craft room, when I came across a half used package of air-dry clay. I didn’t really have a kid craft in mind when I found it, but once I came across a stray heart cookie cutter in one of my drawers – it all started to come together.

After some debating in my head – these clay and sequined rainbow fish came along nicely.

I don’t know about you but when I think of summer, I think of a beach and fish swimming freely. With a little imagination, kids can decorate and customize their own clay rainbow fish creations. Then let air-dry and turn the end results into magnets, home decor or whatever your heart desires!

Find all the crafty details below! Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share pictures of your clay rainbow fish creations with us on our Facebook to admire! #gluedtomycrafts

Heart Shaped Clay Rainbow Fish Heart Shaped Clay Rainbow Fish

This is a really fun, easy and colorful craft idea! All you need is some air-dry clay, a heart shaped cookie cutter, colorful sequins and magnets or pins if you want to make them into magnets or home decor. Let your little ones go wild with their imagination and have a lot of fun making these!

Craft Supplies:

  • White Air Dry Clay
  • Large Heart Shaped Cookie Cutter
  • Small/Medium Sized Sequins
  • Craft Paint – red/brown
  • Paint Brushes
  • Large Cookie Tray, Plate or Paper Plate

Directions:

  • First roll out the clay and cut out your heart shapes for the fish bodies. You want one heart shape per clay fish piece you want to make today.
  • Lay them on a plate or cookie sheet, where the cutouts will be able to dry for a few days {but wait – there’s more!}
  • Before you let them dry, grab your sequins and have your child push them into the clay, to decorate the “fins” of the fish.
  • Once you have all the sequins in, paint on the lips and eyes of the fish.
  • Now you are ready to let the clay pieces air dry for a few days, undisturbed, until they are completely hard.
  • Once they are hard, display as is OR add magnets to the back of each clay rainbow fish, so you can display them on the fridge to enjoy every day!

Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use.
