- A paper plate
- A soft brush
- 5 liter soda container
- White cardboard or poster board
Directions
- Dip the brush in the black paint and draw the branches of a cherry blossom tree.
- Continue painting the branches but make sure they aren’t very thick. Don’t worry if the branches are curved, they look better that way.
- Put the pink paint in the paper plate. If you don’t have pink paint, mix red and white paint till you get the perfect color. Use more white than red.
- Dip the bottom part of the soda container in the paint. Remove excess paint by shaking the bottle.
- Press the bottle on a branch on the cardboard. It will create a lovely cherry blossom with five petals.
- Repeat the process to add flowers to the other branches.
- Leave the paint to dry then display your artwork.
