I’ve been on a huge watercolor kick lately! My favorite craft techniques are those that don’t require precision. I can’t draw or paint anything realistic, but I can swoosh paint around like nobody’s business. Recently, I made some quick watercolor confetti because I believe it’s always a smart idea to have a little on hand. You never know when you’ll decide to have an impromptu festive moment.
Supplies: watercolor paints, assorted paint brushes and craft/hole punches (of different sizes and shapes if you’d like). All of my supplies were purchased from Michael’s.
First, dilute your paint and fill a sheet of watercolor paper with messy brush strokes. Then punch out several shapes.
Store your confetti in little envelopes. Or throw it in the air. Or throw it at a friend. Have a party. Love life. Etc. :)
