- Now dip the pom pom paint brush in the yellow paint, then on the printable, just above the popcorn box design.
- Repeat under you have the desired “popped popcorn” look you want. You can make your butter covered popcorn as tall or as thin as you like!
- To finish off the Pom Pom Stamped Popcorn craft, sprinkle loose craft glitter on top of the wet paint for added sparkle.
- When done crafting, allow it all to dry completely before you display it proudly for ALL to see!
