We are part of a great big solar system, but that does not mean that we can not shrink it down a little. In fact, if you shrink it down enough, you can wear it around your neck!
Make these planet beads in metallic and bright colors, and in sizes that are not to scale for a fun and funky look. The idea here is to create the essence of the solar system, rather than trying to create anything too realistic.
You'll find tips for painting the planets, but your kids will have fun decorating them in imaginative ways. They may even want to create a whole new solar system with their own whimsical planets!
WHAT YOU NEED
- Assortment of wooden beads (multiple sizes)
- Bright and metallic acrylic paint
- 30-inch necklace chain
- Paint brush
- Wooden skewer
