How to paint, mix, and weave paper

Set up your area with your supplies. Your supplies are the primary colors and white paint but also include magenta and dark blue.

Mix colors and then add white to create a tint of that hue. Keep each new color separate from the others until the page is full.

Take the back of your paint brush to scratch into the wet paint. For your very last mark, add a few dots on the top

Cover your entire piece of paper. Set aside until dry.

Cut your paper into thick and thin strips on the shorter side of paper.

Begin your weaving by taping down 4 strips. Start weaving over, under, over, under. Add strips vertically and horizontally until you have run out of strips.

Finished weaving can be glued down to a black sheet of construction paper.
