Paper Plate Umbrella

It’s raining again! But never fear – it’s just brilliant because you know – the great thing about the wet weather is that you can get crafting indoors – and be totally inspired to create marvels like these wonderful paper plate umbrellas – this sort of craft makes us really happy, and you can hang them in the window to cheer up the rainy view!

Paper plates are a great craft material too, there are so many different crafts you can do and make with paper plates – and they are a brilliant prop to keep in the cupboard as you never know when you may need them!

Nurseries and playgroups will love this paper plate umbrella too as it’s such a simple idea – small children will be able to cut the plate in half, and decorate with stickers, whereas older children can get painting and drawing, and decorate the umbrella themselves.
