Lighted Aquarium

Today we made lighted aquarium's!!

Here's what you will need for this craft:

Glass bowl
Tissue paper
Elmer's glue
Water
Small plastic bowl
Foam brushes
Small light (I used battery operated tea lights)
glass pebbles

And here we go....

  • Cut or tear blue tissue paper into strips.
  • Pour 2 tablespoons of glue into small plastic bowl and add a tablespoon of water. Mix until the glue is thin and runny.
  • Adhere the tissue paper strips to the outside of the glass bowl using the glue mixture. Do this until the bowl is covered.
  • Using several different colors of tissue paper, cut out fish, plants, and other sea life objects to adhere to the top of the blue tissue paper.
  • Fill the bowl halfway with glass pebbles.
  • Add your light to watch your aquarium glow.
Enjoy!!


The fish bowls are going to make great night lights for the kiddo's tonight!!
