- Instructions
-
-
Have your child pick out her favorite coloring creations: monsters, people, a landscape -- you name it. Cut out the shapes and glue them to the outside of the shade. If the shapes are too large, you can take them to a local copy shop to have them resized on a color photocopier.
-
With a solution of three parts glue to one part water (or you can use a decoupage matte), paint over each of the cutouts on the shade, taking care to coat all the edges. Apply two or three coats, allowing the glue to dry between applications.
-
Use the craft wire to attach the small toy to the end of the pull chain.
