My kids had so much fun making these Rainbow Sun Clouds Paper Plate Craft. Any craft with paper plates rate pretty high on their list but this one seemed to include all their favorite craft products like cotton balls and glitter all wrapped up in one.
For supplies you’re going to need:
- paper plate
- school glue
- yellow tissue paper squares
- sponge brushes
- scissors
- cotton balls
- gold glitter
- stapler
- construction paper (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, & purple)
We started by first covering the plate with a thin layer of glue.
Then I had the boys cover the plates with a thin layer of yellow tissue paper squares. In the past, I have tried cutting up squares and they came out all different shapes. I have loved having these tissue squares in my craft room and we use them often.
Next, take your glue and make a design with it. Make sure to only cover the top half.
Then cover with gold glitter. Shake off excess glitter.
Cut long strips from construction paper in the colors of the rainbow.
Take one strip of each color and staple them to the bottom half of the plate. If you have littles ou might want to do this for them.
Then cover bottom half of paper plate with glue and add cotton balls.
When they are done they will have their own Rainbow Sun Clouds Paper Plate Craft!

My 6 year old would love making these! I love it! So cute!!
Cute idea! I think we might try puffy paint instead of glue and glitter. Glitter makes me crazy, it gets absolutely everywhere!
This is such a cute craft that I know my son would enjoy making with me!
Such a fun one. perfect craft for my son to do this summer holiday.
Adorable! My 5-year-old especially appreciates rainbows.

I love this project and it would be great for me and my grandkids to do together, great craft and easy to do
These are so cute, and not too hard, nor too expensive. Pretty much things you are likely to have around. I wouldn’t mind these being stuck to the refrigerator!
Very much a great craft. Very colorful and it looks like your kids enjoyed it.
These are so cute. What a great project for me to do with the grandchildren. Thank you so much for sharing
