Solar System Art
Create your own solar system with paper, paint and a spray bottle!
Materials
Directions
Put a small amount of white paint in the spray bottle and dilute it with water.
Spray a couple of sprays onto the black sheet of card stock to create a galaxy look. Let the paint dry completely.
Draw different sized circles onto a variety of brightly colored pieces of card stock. These will be the planets, so make them different sizes.
Cut out the circles and glue them onto your black paper.
Add whatever details you'd like to your planets with crayons and glitter glue. To make shooting stars, add a gold star on the end of a tail of glitter glue.
Once it's dry, you'll have an "out of this world" solar system!
