The Easy Directions:
* First print out the watermelon slice template printable, that is listed above in the supply list. You will want to print it on a single sheet of white cardstock paper. You only need ONE print per watermelon craft.
* Now grab your scissors and trim out the watermelon slice from the printable. Discard excess paper.
* Next grab your choice of adhesive and glue the watermelon slice to the center of another piece of colored cardstock paper.
* Now grab your two clothespins and pom poms.
* Pinch ONE pom pom into each of the clothespins. You now have TWO polka dot paint brushes!
* Next squirt the two different paint colors {black and green} on the paper plate.
* Dip one clothespin paint brush in the green and the other in the black.
* Now you are ready to paint! Add green dots along the rim of the watermelon slice, as well as adding a few black “watermelon seeds” in the inside.
* Once done, set it aside to let it dry completely before moving onto the next step.
* To finish off the polka dot watermelon craft, glue on the wiggle eyes and draw on a smile. That’s it!
* Don’t forget to snap a few pictures during and after, so I can see what you both come up with! You can always tag us on Facebook or Instagram for easy sharing! #gluedtomycrafts
