Use Poms to Paint our Cat in the Hat Craft

Pom Painted Cat in the Hat Step by Step Instructions
Begin by printing the hat template.
Cut out the template and trace on the base cardstock using a black sharpie. Also draw lines going across the hat to separate the red and white colors.
Now, gather the red and white paint. Pour either in a palette or paper plate. Clamp the poms you’re going to use to paint in the clothespins. Smaller poms will give you more precise coverage while larger poms will be quicker at filling more space.
Then, dip a pom in the paint and begin stamping the lines with the colors of the hat.
Use one pom brush for red and another for white.
Continue stamping down the hat.
Such a fun, simple, and great last minute crafty art project to celebrate Dr. Seuss Day and Read Across America!
