Around Valentines Day, I saw a lot of ideas for using coffee filters and watercolor to make pretty heart-shaped suncatchers, like these from
The Artful Parent. We didn't have a chance to make the V-day ones, but here's our go at some St. Patty's Day suncatchers!

| Watered down some green paint to make "watercolor." Why is it always so fun to dip paint brushes in a cup? And DO NOT attempt to hold the cup for your toddler. Help from mom not necessary, apparently. (wink) |

We dripped and painted the watery green onto coffee filters. It was very cool to watch the paint spread!
 |
I cut the filters into shamrocks and LB helped me tape them onto the window. Easy!

This looks like a MUCH more doable project than the crayon shavings one we did last week. Good idea! Also, I love The Artful Parent so much!
Those crayon shaving ones looked so cool! Maybe in another year or so they'll be ready to participate more, haha. It's hard to find a balance of "you do, I do" sometimes! There are many projects that I just give up because there's no way Chloe's participating!
