Heart Rainbow Craft

This Pot of Gold at the End of the Heart Rainbow Craft is not only a beautifully simple rainbow craft for St Patrick’s Day, but in my mind it symbolizes a deeper meaning of how heart and love are the greatest of riches. That’s why the rainbow hearts lead into the pot of gold. Or, you know, it’s just a nice simple rainbow craft.

We cut just to the inside circle of the paper plate. But there’s really no rule on where to cut.

Paint the paper plate black. Let dry.

Cut a heart out of every color of the rainbow.

Once you get the desired size heart, use the one heart as a template to cut the other hearts so they’re all the same size.

Also punch a bunch of yellow circles for gold coins with the circle paper punch.
