Project Tween: Paint n’ Sip (July 2017) Gallery

Enjoy pictures of our popular July Project Tween Paint-and-sip project: a sunset painting. To begin, each tween started by painting their canvas all orange. Then they layered different colors of acrylic paint and lastly, topped their creation with paint dots for the sun rays. What beautiful sunsets!  Find this and other crafty pins we’ve tried at the Huntley Library:  https://www.pinterest.com/huntleylibrary/crafty-pins-weve-tried-the-huntley-library/
