There are quite a number of DIY crafts that you can choose from. These choices depend on your preference and the availability of materials. If you’re still looking for options, check out these wonderful DIY spring crafts that you can do with your kids or on your own:

• Tissue cherry blossom tree

Teaching your kids to care for the environment should start from home. One way to do it is by introducing them on the beauty of various trees and plants. You can help them make a DIY Tissue Cherry-blossom Tree and let them know how trees help the environment. For this project, you only need an empty glass container, tree branches, glue and colored tissue (preferably pink). Cut the tissue into a 2-inch square. Fold securely in the middle to form a blossom. Then, randomly stick the blossoms on the branches to form the tree.

• Customized Umbrella

Tired of your plain-colored umbrella? Let your kids showcase their art skills by painting their own umbrella like a canvass. For this project, you need several paint colors, paint brush and umbrella. Allow your kids to think about their design and let them paint on their own. Make sure you use kid-friendly paint for safety.

Colorful Stencil Dishes

Spring is all about colors, bright and vibrant colors to be exact.  The colors help to bring in the warmth and life that spring carries.  So little touches make all the difference, take or purchase plain white dishes.  Then get templates for the images that you want on them; like farm animals, flowers etc.  Place the shape on top of some contact paper and outline with a pencil the shape.  Cut out the shape with a craft knife, remove the shape from the rest of the paper.  Peel the backing away and set the stencil to a clean surfaced dish or mug, being sure to center the image.  Fill in the outline with a soft brush and dishwasher-safe PermEnamel paint, after you have filled it in let it stand for a few minutes.  Then carefully take off the contact paper, clean up any edges with a damp cotton swab then allow the paint to cure for at least 10 days.

Basic Stencil on your Window Shades

How about designing your own window treatments?  You can take some ordinary window shades and transform them into custom made DIY spring craft for all to admire.  Select the stencil that you prefer to use, and it might be best to use a simple stencil with strong attributes an intricate flora piece or a bird cage could be some that would be perfect focal points for your shade.  Then center the stencil on the shade, so that it lines up with the top center of the shade.  Just follow the stencil directions for using the stencil brush and acrylic paint to tenderly dampen the design on the shade and let it stand for 30 minutes.  Repeat the process for a second coating and wait another 30 minutes before gently removing the stencil, have the shade dry for another hour before hanging it.

Stencils on your Blankets & Pillows

Blanket Ideas

You can even bring stencil design onto your bedding or throw blankets.  The choice is yours if you decide on using a blanket that is solid or has a pattern.  Now this craft can be a bit different because you can actually take a fresh floral and use them as the stencil instead of a stencil cut out.  Preferably leaves or branches from plants because they lay down better, place them all around the blanket and use a color or neutral spray paint and begin to lightly spray over the blanket until you have achieved the desired look for your blanket.  Carefully remove the leaves or branches from the blanket and let it sit for at least an hour or until the paint fully dries.

Spring is in the air everywhere you look around and now it is time to let it shine in your interiors.  Stencil crafting is one of the most creative and influential DIY spring craft to add variety and life to your interiors.  So go back and take a look at some of the ideas and places for you to use stencil work then go for it.  Also, stencil crafting can also be used on the walls, table linens, and more!
