Colorful Paper Plate & Paint Splat Peacock Craft Idea For Kids
Paint splat crafts have become my new favorite technique as of late. If you have been following us for awhile now, I’ve shared quite a few different ideas on Glued To My Crafts already. By chance have you recreated any of them yet?
I recently took our popular paper plate and paint splash technique & changed it up a bit to make a colorful Paint Splat Peacock. All I did was change up the colors I used {keeping in line with shades of blue & purple} and added a bowling pin shape for the peacock’s body to the center. That’s it! Still just as easy as my previous paint splatter craft tutorials and still equally fun!
If this is something you want to do with your child today, keep scrolling for ALL the details and supply links below. I even decided to pull out my printable from our popular “chalk art peacock” post to make it even easier for us to make it! This way, I really do hope you are inspired to recreate this paint marble craft idea today!
Happy crafting, my friends!!! Don’t forget to share pictures of your beautiful Paint Splatter & Paper Plate Peacock creations with us on Facebook! I can’t wait to see how awesome and vibrant their paint marble feathers turn out on the paper plate! #gluedtomycrafts

Directions:
* Please make sure you have a good working area because paint will squeeze out of the sides of this craft!
* First fold your large paper plate in half – straight up the center, into equal pieces {one per peacock that you want to make today.}
* Unfold and squirt some paint on one side of the paper plate {I like the Tulip Puffy Paint for this particular step since it’s in a nice controlled squirt bottle} Be sure to keep the paint inside the paper plate and not place too much down.
* Once the paint is down, go ahead and fold/squish your paper plate together again.
* Be sure to rub your hand all over the folded piece, so the paint will cover your the inside nicely {paint WILL more than likely squeeze out the sides, so be sure to pay attention to that and clean up with baby wipes!}
* Now carefully unfold your piece to reveal your colorful paint splat peacock feather design inside.
* Sprinkle some loose craft glitter on top of the wet paint.
* Set it aside to allow it to dry completely till the last step.
* To finish the Paper Plate And Paint Splat Peacock – cut/staple the peacock design from the printable {listed above in the supply list} to the center of the decorated paper plate piece. If you by chance can’t print our file, just cut something out of blue cardstock instead.
* And that’s it – don’t forget to snap a few pictures to share with us! #gluedtomycrafts
