(Newswire.net — August 15, 2015) Caledon, Caledon — Visitors and subscribers on the I Heart Arts N Crafts blog can now see how to make their own pinwheels with their children. The blog recently published DIY ideas on how to make Neon Chalk Pinwheels with the new liquid chalk pens from Gold Star Selections. One added benefit highlighted by the blog was the eco-friendly design of the markers which make them safe to use with children and those who suffer from allergies.
Jackie Cravener, writer at I Heart Arts N Crafts, confessed that she loved getting new craft supplies because she always felt like a child at Christmas. She recently received the eco friendly chalk markers which she and her children used to decorate the windows. These were said to be perfect for this kind of art as the liquid markers wipe off easily after use on windows and glasses. Cravener mentioned that the fluorescent colors of the eco-friendly markers are bright and bold and perfect for the pinwheel craft creations.
According to I Heart Arts N Crafts, the supplies needed to build the neon chalk pinwheels included; Eco-Friendly Markers, Black Cardstock, Glue Gun, Paper Straws, Buttons, Pipe Cleaners and Scissors and Puncher. The first thing art and crafts enthusiasts or kids should do, according to the blog, is to cut the black cardstock paper into a square so that all the sides are even. Afterwards, they can design some kind of fun artwork with the Fun Chalk Liquid Markers on both sides of the paper.
At this point, the scissors should be used to cut a slit down every corner of the square while ensuring it doesn’t go all the way to the center. Then, holes should be punched on every other corner of the paper on adjacent side of the slit as well as in the very center of the paper.
According to I Heart Arts N Crafts, next an adult should fold the corners with the holes into the middle of the paper meeting the center circle then use a hot glue gun to paste the edges together. Once the glue is dried the user can take a large button and thread a pipe cleaner through it and bring it back through the holes of the pinwheel. The ends of the pipe cleaner can then be placed around a straw to make the final product.
This arts and crafts project is a fun way to let children interact and learn about shapes. The eco friendly chalk markers by Gold Star Selections that they use is xylene free, odor free, non-toxic and dust free making it safe for children’s use. According to Gold Star Selections, this makes the markers ideal for those who may suffer from allergies or asthma.
