I don't remember where I found this idea originally, but I know I saw it somewhere last spring and we're just now getting around to it. Also, it's a bit more of a "wintry mix" today than a "spring shower" but I think it works about the same.

{Abstract Painting by Mia, Logan, and myself} |
Materials:
Directions:
- Color a piece of paper with markers. It seems to look best if you fill the paper. I preferred the painting we did with abstract designs over the ones that were supposed to look like something realistic.
- Place paper outside while it's raining. (Weight paper down with rocks if necessary.)
- Wait a few minutes for colors to run and then bring paper back inside.
- Allow paper to dry (I used a hair dryer to speed things along.) and then display your "watercolor painting."
