Chalk Art Rainbow Pot of Gold

Will you find a rainbow at the end of our latest & greatest tutorial?! I sure hope so!

Today’s Paper Plate & Chalk Art Rainbow Pot of Gold kids craft tutorial is drenched with so much COLORFUL FUN!

Keep scrolling to see how we made this Paper & Chalk Pot of Gold craft idea come to life with a few simple supplies and steps! I’ll show YOU how easy it really is to incorporate into your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations!

Chalk Art Rainbow Pot of Gold - Kid Craft Idea

Chalk & Paper Plate Rainbow Pot of Gold Craft Idea

Today’s rainbow kids craft idea uses inexpensive materials such as Crayola sidewalk chalk, dark colored paper and a simple, small paper plate. Very basic craft materials you probably have on hand already {especially if you have been a long time fan of Glued To My Crafts!}

With our tutorial, kids will be able to make their rainbow as bright and/or as colorful as they want. Since our craft idea is very abstract on how many lines and/or chalk you add to the paper, no two pieces will be alike {just like the real deal!}

If I have convinced you to give it a try, all the details can be found below in our step-by-step tutorial. Although I don’t have a free printable like my past chalk art posts on our website, this St. Patrick’s Day inspired tutorial is really easy to start on your own and can be completed just as fast. Promise!

So friends – don’t let this crafty idea slip away! Bookmark this very post and later this week, make some colorful “one-of-a-kind” chalk art and paper plate rainbows with your child. Then show off those creations, with pride, with us! We love seeing those pics so tag us on Facebook or use our #gluedtomycrafts in the description for us to see!

Happy crafting, my dear friends! I can’t wait to see your paper and chalk rainbow pot of gold creations!
