Q-Tip Painted Lavender Plant - 5 Minute Craft Idea For Kids

This easy kids craft is perfect for spring! Learn how to make a lavender plant on paper using q-tips and craft paint!

Craft Supplies:

  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Lavender Printable – on our landing page
  • Q-Tip
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Purple Craft Paint
  • Brown Cardstock Paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue Stick
  • Small Craft Bows

Directions:

  • First things first – download and print the provided file in the supply list above. You only need ONE print per flower craft.
  • Now grab your purple craft paint and squirt it on the paper plate.
  • Take a cotton swab, dip it into the paint, then onto the greenery in the printable, to create little flower buds ALL over the stems. Repeat until your lavender plant is nice and full with purple flowers ALL over.
  • Now grab your choice of colored cardstock and scissors. I used a kraft/tan colored paper for mine.
  • Cut out a simple flower pot shape, to hold your lavender flowers in. This can be a square, rectangle or even a trapezoid shape.
  • Next grab your glue stick and glue the “pot” cutout to the bottom of your printable with the greenery.
  • To finish off the Q-Tip Painted Lavender Flower craft – add other embellishments you see fit {like a decorative bow on the flower pot.}
  • When done crafting, set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly!!!

Customize It:

  • Instead of using cotton swabs for this craft, you can also use small paint brushes, bubble wrap or even your fingers to create the purple buds {similar to our thumbprint dandelion tutorial that went viral a few years back!} The choice is yours!
  • I also encourage you to think outside the box and change up the colors of your painted lavender print. From the color of the paper that you print the file on, to adding different shades of purple on your q-tips, I hope you are inspired to run with this idea & make it your own.
  • Don’t have a printer? No worries my friends! Just hand-draw some greenery on white cardstock instead. Maybe even get out the ruler out to make sure the lines are straight.
  • And one last note – you can easily add some wording around the finished q-tip print lavender design to turn it into a card. Maybe for the upcoming Mother’s Day holiday – hint hint!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. 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. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
