Rainbow themed Shrinky Dinks!

I found out about Shrinky Dink two weeks ago when browsing Pinterest and immediatialy thought that using it would be a perfect fit for Share a Rainbow Day ideas! I've never tried it before as I can't remember having it in my country, Brazil, when I was a kid. WOW!

Abandoning colorful pine cones

When you are creative, life flows through you . (I dont know the author to credit it) My Art Therapy coach course is bringing me so many insights about the benefits of art, specially to kids, whom i work with almost everyday.

Enjoy the season to paint colorful pine cones and leave them hanging from trees to surprise people! Supplies needed (affiliate links for your convenience): Pine cones. I find them in the nature but you can buy some here. Acrylic paint Adhesive spray (optional) Glitter (optional) Twine Hot glue gun Paint two layers of acrylic to make it look bold and bright.

Use the twine to give a tight knot around the stem and
