Dimensional Tulip Paints
Tulip is my go-to brand for paint and other colorful craft supplies.
For this project, I used paints from the Rainbow & Neon Dimensional Fabric Paint Pack.
These paints are perfect for use on fabric, but they also work well on glass, wood, and other surfaces.
The paints have screw-on lids and a pointed tip that makes it easy to apply paint directly to the jar.
You won’t need a paintbrush, since you can just squeeze the paint onto your wood surface.
If you are careful, this can be a virtually mess-free paint project.
Rainbow Colors
Are you familiar with ROYGBIV?
It’s an acronym that stands for the colors of the rainbow in order:
- Red
- Orange
- Yellow
- Green
- Blue
- Indigo
- Violet
These colors are all pretty and they are even more beautiful when they are together in a real life rainbow or when used in a rainbow craft.
Tulip Paints are available in all of these rainbow colors, so you can create your own beautiful rainbow craft at home.
Unfinished Wood
Unfinished wood hearts are a great choice for an easy craft project that is inexpensive and looks great.
They are also readily available and good for kids and adults to use as a base for a craft project.
Hearts are available in different sizes and slightly different heart shapes, so you can find the perfect one for your project.
They don’t need sanding and are ready to use right out of the package.
The wood looks nice for a quick craft, but you can also keep your projects for years.

Instructions
1) Gather up your craft supplies and make a general plan as to how you will paint your hearts. Make yours just like mine or come up with your own rainbow colored design.
2) Paint your hearts by gently squeezing out paint from the little Tulip Paint bottles.
3) Allow your paint to completely dry, remembering that dry time can vary. The paint will dry faster on a warm, dry Summer day than it will on a cold, wet Winter day.
