Rainbow Tissue Paper Craft
Materials
- Rainbow craft template (available for download below)
- Tissue paper in rainbow colors and white
- Scissors
- Glue
Instructions
First, download and print out the free rainbow craft template, which you can find at the bottom of this page.
Next, gather your tissue paper in rainbow colors and cut small pieces of tissue paper in each color. We found it easiest to use pieces that were approximately .5″ x 2″, but this is very forgiving and doesn’t need to be exact.
Once you’ve cut your tissue paper, begin gluing it to your rainbow. Working in sections, apply glue to the rainbow, lightly crinkle up a piece of tissue paper in the appropriate color, and stick the tissue paper to the glue. Continue like this until the entire rainbow is covered in tissue paper.
Finally, use the same method to glue white tissue paper to the clouds.
Once your rainbow is covered in tissue paper, cut out around the rainbow.
Now your tissue paper rainbow craft is complete!
Crafting this tissue paper rainbow is a fantastic way to bring joy and color into your day while enjoying quality time with your kids.
The vibrant colors and textured tissue paper make this rainbow craft a beautiful addition to any space, and it’s a great project for developing fine motor skills and creativity.
I hope you and your little ones had a wonderful time creating your rainbows.
