Welcome the sunlight with these bright colourful suncatchers, made with your favourite Elmer’s glue!

Please note: there is a 48-hour waiting time for glue to harden.

Ingredients Needed

• Elmer’s Glue (Recommend Clear, Translucent, Glitter or Glow-in-the-Dark)
• Cookie cutters, any shape
• Wax paper
• Toothpick (optional)
• Hole punch
• String/yarn

Directions

Lay out a piece of wax paper on a flat surface and place your desired cookie cutter shape on the wax paper.

Squeeze your Elmer’s Glue into the cookie cutter shape until the bottom of the cookie cutter has a nice layer of Elmer’s Glue (about 3 mm of glue). Try using different colours of glue in different areas of the cookie cutter for a multi-coloured suncatcher, or use a toothpick to swirl the colours together for a cool colour effect!

Let the glue completely harden in the cookie cutter. This may take up to 48 hours.

Once hardened, remove the cookie cutter.

Use a hole punch at the top of your shape and insert yarn or string to hang your sun catcher on a window! Parents, you may need to hole punch the sun catcher for your younger children.
