10 Craft Ideas to Do with Orchid Coloring Pages
Orchids, those elegant and exotic flowers, are a joy to behold. Their unique shapes and vibrant colors make them perfect subjects for coloring pages. But why limit yourself to just filling in the lines? Let’s transform those orchid coloring pages into stunning crafts that show off your artistic flair! Here are seven fun and original ideas, perfect for an 8th-grade creator:
1. Orchid Lanterns
Light up your space with the delicate beauty of orchids! Color your orchid designs on thin, translucent paper like vellum or tracing paper. Carefully cut out the orchid shapes. Wrap the colored paper around a small, battery-operated LED tea light. Secure the paper with tape. You’ll have glowing orchid lanterns that add a soft, enchanting ambiance to any room.
2. Orchid Paperweights
Keep your papers organized with a touch of floral elegance. Color an orchid design on thick paper or cardstock. Cut out the orchid shape. Place it inside a clear, flat-bottomed glass cabochon (a smooth, domed piece of glass). Seal the back with a strong craft glue. You’ll have a beautiful and functional paperweight.
3. Orchid Hair Accessories
Add a touch of floral charm to your hairstyle! Color small orchid designs on thin, flexible plastic sheets or shrink plastic. Carefully cut out the orchids. If using shrink plastic, follow the package instructions to shrink and harden the designs. Attach the orchids to hair clips, barrettes, or headbands using strong craft glue. You’ll have unique and stylish orchid hair accessories.
4. Orchid Suncatchers
Capture the sunlight with vibrant orchid suncatchers. Color your orchid designs on clear plastic sheets or acetate. Cut out the orchids. Use stained glass paint or translucent glass markers to add a stained-glass effect. Attach a string or suction cup to the top. Hang them in your window and watch the sunlight transform your orchids into dazzling displays.
5. Orchid Decorated Candles
Personalize plain candles with the beauty of orchids. Color orchid designs on thin tissue paper. Carefully cut out the orchids. Apply a thin layer of decoupage glue to the candle. Gently place the tissue paper orchids onto the glue. Seal with another layer of decoupage glue. You’ll have beautifully decorated candles that make wonderful gifts.
6. Orchid Photo Frames
Frame your favorite memories with a touch of floral elegance. Color orchid designs on cardstock. Cut them out and arrange them around a plain photo frame. Glue them in place. You can even add glitter or sequins to enhance the orchids. You’ll have a personalized photo frame that showcases your creativity.
7. Orchid Gift Boxes
Make gift-giving extra special with decorated orchid gift boxes. Color orchid designs on decorative paper or cardstock. Cut out the orchids and glue them onto a plain gift box. Add ribbons, bows, or other embellishments to enhance the design. You’ll have a beautiful and unique gift box that shows you care.
These craft ideas are a wonderful way to turn simple orchid coloring pages into unique and beautiful creations. So, grab your coloring supplies and let your imagination bloom! You’ll be amazed at the stunning crafts you can create.
