Today we are sharing an art project idea that we hope will BLOSSOM so much creativity in your home this spring season.
Keep scrolling so you can make an awesome stamped cherry blossom art piece, with just a piece of raw broccoli, craft paint and cardstock paper! That’s it!
Cherry Blossom Tree Art Made With Broccoli
It’s another tutorial using a material YOU would NEVER expect! FRESH, RAW BROCCOLI! I didn’t know how much people would love our fall version last year, so I’m super excited to continue the fun into the spring season, as well!
Today’s creative “stamping” technique is super simple for parents, grandparents, teachers, babysitters and anyone looking to celebrate the spring season with their littles. It’s also really inexpensive too {especially if you have a few pieces of broccoli to spare from your dinner plans!} My favorite part is probably that NO TWO PIECES will be alike – kinda like real deal!
So what are you waiting for? Grab some raw broccoli from the grocery store today, print out our provided tree branch printable below and get ready to let your creative juices “blossom” with our full tutorial below! I’m sure you and your child are going to LOVE “growing” it together!
Happy crafting and creating beautiful artwork pieces this season!
