Once I get on a roll with something, I tend to get carried away and my latest obsession is building DIY stands for use around the classroom out of PVC pipes. However, some ideas take a little tweaking like this DIY paint stand.
We have been spending time talking about opposites which sparked the idea of creating a painting process that explored the concept of back and forth. I wanted it to be a cool process so I made this PVC stand and painted it.
The first day, I added paint brushes and watered down paint. Although the children found the process interesting, it really didn’t paint or drip all that well.
Not to be deterred, I switched out the brushes to water paint pens and made the strings a little bit longer. This worked much better…
Of course, I can use my DIY stand for other types of activities – I am just trying to figure out what they might be! If you have any ideas for what else I could use my DIY stand for I would love for you to leave them in the comment section below…
