You Will Need (9 things)

  • Sticky Back Plastic
  • Paint Brush
  • Paint (different colours)
  • Scissors
  • Ruler
  • Pencil
  • Paper
  • Light Switch
  • Double Sided Tape

Steps (8 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Measure your light switch and add a border.

  2. 2

    Cut out the square/rectangle. Snip from the corner of the border to the corner of the middle so that you can fold.

  3. 3

    If the corners overlap cut a half moon shape.

  4. 4

    Fun bit!

    Put something down to protect the surface and choose your colours ( i used red, yellow, green and blue ) And mix them with water. This will make it easier to spalt.

    Now....SPLAT. You can do this as much as you want.

  5. 5

    Wait to dry.

    You can use a hair dryer to speed up the progress ( i let it dry naturally ) But make sure you stick it down with blue tac so it dosent blow away!

  6. 6

    To make it last longer use some sticky back plastic. Refold and cut the corners.

  7. 7

    Measure where the switch is and cut it out.

  8. 8

    Stick onto the light switch with blue tac, sellotape or double sided tape.

    Done! :D
