How to make a children's painting using watercolors and cardboard

Children's paintings They are very useful to decorate any corner of the room of the little ones. In this post I am going to show you how to make one very fast and cheap by recycling cardboard.

Materials to make the children's painting

  • Cardboard
  • White cardboard
  • Glue, glue, or double-sided tape
  • Scissors
  • Watercolors
  • Permanent markers
  • Brush and water
  • Colored eva rubber
  • Heart and butterfly piercing machines

Procedure for drawing up the children's chart

  • The first thing is to take a cardboard box the size you want to make the painting. Mine is half a sheet of paper.
  • Take the White cardboard and apply glue on the cardboard. Join the two pieces.

  • Cut out the corners leaving some 3 mm on the sides to avoid being seen later when we cover them.
  • Apply double-sided tape or glue and glue the tabs inward.
  • Do the same on the four tabs and finally glue a piece of white cardboard if you want to cover the cardboard.

  • Now let's draw the landscape using watercolors.
  • I'm going to start by doing some trees very light with brown.
  • Then I will make some details with darker brown on the branches and trunks.

  • To finish the background I'm going to draw some leaves with two shades of green.

  • Now i will ride the bunny that will go in our box.
  • Cut out all the pieces you see in the photo.
  • I will go riding first ears and then I'll stick them on the head.
  • Now, The snout.

  • On top of the muzzle I will place nose which will be a black heart made of eva rubber.
  • Now it is the body's turn, gluing the white part on top of the belly.
  • And then we will stick to the sides arms.

  • You have to unite the two parts, head and body.
  • With markers I am going to do the details on the face: eyes, teeth and cheeks.

  • Once done the details of the face, I'll stick it on top of the landscape and now two butterflies with the hole punch.

  • I'll fold the butterflies in half to make them look like they're flying and that's it.
  • We have finished our perfect children's painting to place it anywhere in your house.
