I have a new DIY on my channel today and it’s all about COLOR! I’ve been brainstorming these rainbow DIYs for a few weeks now, but with the Supreme Court ruling the other day, I thought it was the perfect time to finish them up. Keep reading for the full DIY video and more photos of the projects!
The first one is a recreation of a project I made ages ago just for myself and never put in a video – the rainbow bead wine bottle/mason jar. All you have to do is layer beads of every color in a clear jar and you’ve got a really fun room decoration with no drying time that literally takes about five minutes to make.
For the rainbow of glasses, I pulled out my collection of movie 3D glasses, spray painted them white, and then painted them each a different color of the rainbow. They make such a fun wall decoration, and you can also use them for costume pieces or photobooth props!
The spray paint definitely looks nicer than the acrylic paint, but not everyone has 8+ bottles of spray paint lying around in every color of the rainbow, so acrylic paint totally works too.
This DIY is an expansion on the painted rim jar I made for my Springtime Organization DIY video, but I loved it so much that I wanted to make one in every color of the rainbow and fill them with color-coordinated washi tape.
This is probably my favorite project of the bunch, but it was definitely the longest process, and was almost a craft fail almost every step of the way. Be sure to watch the video to learn what I went through to make it and what I recommend you do differently.
I do like this photo though of all the embroidery thread before I finished the string art. It’s color o’ clock!
I’ll leave you with a closeup of the string art if you want to recreate it yourself. If you make this one or any of them, please send me a photo by tagging me on Twitter, Instagram, or Tumblr. And if you want to see more DIY projects from me, you can check out my main channel DIYs here and all my HGTV Handmade DIYs here. Have a great day, Happy #Pride, and Happy Summer!
