Craft Supplies:
You don’t need to run out and buy fancy art supplies for this project. Most of these items are commonly found in homes, classrooms, or craft stores. Here’s what you’ll need:
- DONUT Printable {FIND IT ON BOX.COM}
- White Cardstock Paper
- Watercolors
- Paint Brush
- Small Dish w/tap water
- Black Glitter Glue
- Wiggle Eyes
- Markers
Directions:
Follow these simple steps to create your black glue and watercolor donuts:
- First things first on your radar – print out the DONUT FRIEND TEMPLATE above, on simple white cardstock paper {or any color you like!}
- Next, if desired, you can cut the donut body template out with scissors before or after you paint them. I opted for not cutting mine out but it’s just another angle you can take this craft, if it interests you! 🙂
- Now it’s time to paint! Use your watercolors to decorate the donut design however you like.
- For added flair {and more crafty fun} add black glitter glue around the edges and inside the painted donut design.
- Now for bringing them to life! Glue on the wiggle eyes at this point in time and draw on a smiley face with the markers, as well.
- When done with all the crafting fun, set aside your pieces to let them dry completely.
- Finally – display your hard work proudly!
