How To Make This Super Cute and Colorful Mosaic Sun Craft
Step 1
Paint the popsicle sticks yellow first and allow them time to dry.
Notes:
You can skip this step by using colored popsicle sticks if you have them.
Step 2
Arrange the sticks into a “circle” which will actually be more like a hexagon since the sticks can not bend! Glue them together.
Step 3
Add another stick on the middle of each of the sticks already glued together (the “rays” of the sun)
Step 4
Cut a circle from the wax paper that will fit over the opening of your sun (the hexagon). Cover the wax paper circle with glue.
Step 5
Rip various sizes, shapes and colors of tissue paper and stick to the wax paper circle.

Glue the wax paper circle onto the back of the sun.
Step 7
Tie yarn around of the sticks to hang!
