Rainbow Paint Sticks

So I saw an idea similar to this on Pinterest and just had to make my own twist on it.  To make the stick, I hot glued wooden clothespins to a long shim. I glued them approximately every 2". I added some blue duct tape to give an easy to hold/clean handle.  I also wrote the color words along each clothespins. 

Here is the final product:


I was pretty excited to try them in my classroom. They were quite messy to load, but the kids had so much fun with them and everyone loved the way their very unique picture turned out. Overall, the kids didn't get too messy. I highly recommend trying it soon!
