   Here is a craft idea that you can do so much with after you are finished with it.
   first buy a package of coffee filters. any kind is fine (even a cheap kind) Next get some markers and decorate the coffee filters. don’t do anthing fancy just like swirls and spirals going from the center all the way to the outside. Then fold them in half and half and half until they are like pie pieces (> kind of looks like that. Then dip one end into some water either out of a cup or a bowl and watch the colors run make sure it all gets wet but you don’t need to drench the thing. Just a little bit goes along way trust me you will see when you do it. then after it is wet unfold it and let it dry. It will look pretty crazy and you can do so many things with it.
   Examples: make flowers. pinch the middle and twist and put tape around the stem part so it doesn’t come undone.
   Use them as a back ground for pictures.
   They are so many things you can do with them. Use your imagination.
   Hoped this helped!!! Good Luck and have fun.

   if you like paint than decoupage is a good hobby.
