Instructions

    • 1

      Pick some of your favorite pictures from the coloring book and cut out the pages.

    • 2

      Tape a piece of wax paper over the page so it covers the entire picture. You need to be able to see the picture through the wax paper.

    • 3

      Color in the picture using the glitter glue. All of the colors must touch each other. You can use a toothpick to push the glue sections next to each other. Be liberal with the glue so that you cannot see the wax paper underneath.

    • 4

      Let the glue dry for about 24 hours.

    • 5

      Peel the wax paper off the back of the dried glue picture, which is now the window cling. The glitter glue will hold together. The Thanksgiving-themed cling will stick to the window and can be moved to any position you like.

Tips & Warnings

  • Use simple pictures the first time you do this. It is easier to get used to working with the glue if you have large, easy shapes to fill in.
