window . Find a window in your home that can be seen by those coming to visit. Be sure the window is securely closed and locked. Ask a grown-up to help.
2. Use Crayola Window Crayons to draw face-size circles on the window.
3. TIP: To "erase" and redo any Crayola Window Crayon or Window artwork, simply wipe away with a damp paper towel then dry with another paper towel.
4. Add flower petals around each circle using Crayola Window Markers. Use your imagination to make different kinds of petals. Some ideas to try: • Draw lots of wide lines around the circle for a wildflower. • Closely- arranged, wide yellow lines will create image that looks like a sunflower. • Draw circles for a cheery flower. • Long, rounded petals look like a daisy. • To make a pansy, draw a wavy line around the circle. • A circle surrounded by long, narrow hearts makes a "love-ly" flower. • Long square-ended petals have a trendy style.
5. Fill each petal with color using Window Markers or Window Crayons. Tips to try: • Fill in the entire area with broad, solid strokes of marker color. • Dab marker dots in 2 colors. See colors blend to make a third color. • Scribbles look fun and fill in big areas quickly.
6. Remember to gather family members to peek through your Blooming Window Smiles as guests arrive!
