DIY Color Bubble Art

This week I’ve found the perfect EASY craft that’s both fun for the kids and makes for some great artwork to hang in the house or playroom. And what kid doesn’t love bubbles?

My kids love bubbles so much that we have to buy them in the gallon size because we go through them so much. And I’m excited to announce that my daughter now says bubble with no prompting, clear as day! How cute is that?

All you need for this project is 5 things. And I’m sure most of these are in your home already! Don’t feel like you have to go out and purchase a canvas for this artwork, simply use a piece of paper, cardboard, or cardstock you have lying around and if you love it enough just frame it later! That way you can keep changing out the artwork as your kids create new masterpieces.

DIY Color Bubble Art

What You’ll Need: 

• White canvas or cardstock
• Bubbles
• Bubble wands
• Dishes for bubbles
• Food coloring

What you do: 

1. Take the bubbles and food coloring and mix some colors together. Remember, a few drops go a long way!

2. Get out a variety of wands and tools to help change up the patterns on the artwork. Small and big bubbles alike look equally as cool.

3. If you have a bubble container lying around, fill it with some bubbles and add some food coloring right to the container to create an easy-to-use option for younger kids.

4. Start blowing bubbles towards the canvas!

5. If the bubbles don’t go directly onto the canvas you can always just get closer like my son did and make them blow onto it. Feel free to change up the colors and size of the bubbles by using different wands.

It helps when Mommy and Daddy get involved too. That way the kids can blow the bubbles and pop them!

6. Then enlist an official bubble popper to pop all of the bubbles that are still on the canvas.

7. Allow artwork to dry then hang wherever you see fit!
