Instructions for Bubble Wrap Painting Garland

These step-by-step instructions are here to help you visualize how to make this adorable summer garland with the help of bubble wrap painting.

Please be aware that kids using bubble wrap should be supervised by an adult.

Let’s get started:

Step 1: Download Free Printable Popsicle Templates

For the garland, you will need our plain popsicle outline printable. Sign up for our newsletter and get instant access to our free printable library.

Step 2: Prepare Your Workstation

Before we get started with our bubble wrap project it is time to prepare your child’s workspace.
Layout all the needed materials on your child’s table. You might consider covering your work area using old newspapers to avoid a big clean-up.

Step 3: Cut the Bubble Wrap

First, cut the bubble wrap with the scissors approximately the same size as your popsicle outline.

Step 4: Paint Bubble Wrap

Then paint the bubble wrap with the help of your paintbrush in the preferred color.
We used watercolors but all liquid colors will do.
Make sure to be generous with your paint and clean your paintbrush thoroughly before using a new color.

Step 5: Stamp

Once you are done with step 4, turn your painted bubble wrap around and use it as a stamp.
Place the colored side on your popsicle cut-out template and press firmly down with your hands.

If that seems too messy or difficult for your children, there is an alternative: Take your popsicle printable template and press it on the bubble wrap with the popsicle outlines downside facing.

Step 6: Lift the Paper

After you apply enough pressure to stamp the color from the bubble wrap onto the paper, carefully lift the bubble wrap or paper.

Step 7: Let your Popsicle Templates Try

Now it is time to let it try.

Step 8: Cut Out Your Popsicle Templates

When your popsicle craft template is tried, take your scissors and cut the popsicle along the line.

Step 9: Attach Tape

At the end take all your popsicle cutouts and attach them with the help of tape to a string to hang up your finished popsicle garland.
Now all you have to do is to hang it up and enjoy your summer decoration.
