I made these cool necklaces with old washers from the tool bench, nail polish and brightly colored yarn. I spray painted the washers on both sides with an off white color as a base then added stripes and polka dots with colored nail polish. The brightly colored yarn scraps were a gift from my dear knitter friend and they come in handy all the time. Thanks Sara!
I think it’s a pretty fun project and any kid that is old enough to paint their own toenails could easily manage it quite easily provided they have some supervision and a super thick layer of newspaper on the work surface.
I love projects  made with stuff everyone has hanging around the house.
Small washers might even make for funky earrings!

did you have to prep it at all so that the paint won’t chip off? what kind of spray paint base did you use? very cute
I tried this. I am 15 and have really unsteady hands. A washcloth worked just fine for me
