coffee filter and let the kids color it with washable markers
(permanent ones won't work). Then either mist it with water
or carefully sprinkle water on it. The colors will bleed
and blend, making a tie dye look. Let the filters dry, flat.
Be sure to put wax paper or something under them as they will
"bleed" onto what ever you lay them on. Then cut the hearts
out of the filters and you'll get some really cool fish! I've
used filters to make butterflies and flowers and now with you
heart fish idea I have another use for this material.
My kids love to watch the colors mix!" Kelly
Another viewer wrote: "Your fish made
of hearts reminds me of a craft we did in scouts. We made heart
fish from red and pink felt. One mostly red and one mostly pink.
Made them into magnets and made them so they would face each
other and kiss as they stuck to the fridge. I have had mine
for 13 years now and love them all over again each year as I
put them out for Valentines Day. " Janette
