For this craft you will need

cardboard
thread
clear decorative stones
scissors
hot glue gun
foam paper in the rainbow colors
cotton balls

How to make craft

First cut same stripes of all the rainbow colors of the foam paper. They need to be around 1cm wide each. You will need red, purple, orange, light and dark blue, yellow, green.
Arrange them in the right order of the rainbow, attach them together and glue them on the piece of cardboard. They don’t have to lay on the cardboard, they need to be in round shape creating a rainbow. To attach them on the cardboard I’ve used hot glue gun.
To cover the cardboard use pink cotton balls. To attach them on the cardboard also use some hot glue.
Take a thread and cut it in long stripes. Tie a knot on the beginning so you can glue it easily, you will have bigger surface to attach it on the cardboard.
Attach the decorative stones on the threads and attach the threads on the cardboard. Add a string to from both sides to hang the rainbow wind chime.
Now you can hang your craft in a window and enjoy your Rainbow Wind Chime.
