Directions to Make the Mermaid Crafts
Here are the 2 different mermaid crafts with step-by-step instructions on how to make them.
Sequin Mermaid:
1. Paint the mermaid coloring page with a thin layer of paint and allow it to dry. You could also color it with markers, crayons or pencil crayons.
2. Apply glue to the mermaid tail.
3. While the glue is still wet, sprinkle on sequins (use the same color as the painted tail if you can). Allow it to dry, then shake off any excess sequins.
Cupcake Liner Mermaid:
1. Paint the mermaid. Leave the tail of the mermaid unpainted except for the very end of the tail. Allow it to dry.
2. Fold the cupcake liners in half.
3. Glue the folded cupcake liners onto the mermaid tail, starting at the bottom, right above the tail. Alternate two colors and overlap them slightly when gluing down.
