Make your own Watermelon Suncatchers…great craft for KIDS Pink or Red tissue paper (cut into 1 inch squares) Black tissue paper (cut into small circles that will be used for the seeds) White paper plates Adhesive clear laminate shelf liner–you can get this at a craft store Green paint (or anything your heart wants) and a paint brush Tape Scissors DIRECTIONS: Cut the paper plate in half. Next, cut off the "plate" part leaving only the textured rim. Paint the bottom half of the textured rim green or whatever color you want. Next cut a small rectangle of clear shelf liner (fit inside the space in your paper plate). Cut small circles from the black tissue paper and place them directly onto the sticky side of the shelf liner. Next, place small squares of pink or red tissue paper onto the sticky side of the shelf liner. When the shelf liner is covered, cut another small rectangle and place it over the tissue paper. Trim any ragged ends. Place the tissue paper rectangle into the paper plate (seed side out) and secure it with tape. Trim off edges to create a watermelon slice. Hang in the window and let the sun catch it.
