15 Pride Craft Ideas That'll Have The Whole Family Chasing Rainbows

You can be proud (wink wink) to welcome guests to your home when you display this doormat at the entrance to your casa. And while making a rainbow doormat might seem daunting, it’s actually pretty easy, thanks to the step-by-step instructions on Lovely Indeed’s website. You can get a plain doormat and dress it up by using a box cutter to make the arches for each individual section of the rainbow. Some additional supplies you’ll need include masking tape, spray paint in a rainbow of colors, and scrap cardboard to cover the stripes you’re not working on. And soon, with some patience, you’ll have the doormat of your dreams — and one that’s perfect for Pride, too.

This simple craft can be completed in a matter of minutes, and can be a fun activity to do with the kiddos during Pride month.

There are only seven steps to making this sweet rainbow and cloud purse — perfect for wearing when you and your littles go to a Pride parade.

A few rainbow-colored ribbons glued into the inside of the purse create some cute fringe, and a ribbon on top completes the simple yet chic look.

Plus, you can teach your child how to sew, which is an important life skill.

Although it might be a slightly more time-consuming craft (they reported it takes upwards of 15 hours), that’s a small price to pay for having a rainbow disco ball.

But the effort will be well worth it when you have a rainbow disco ball to spin while you and your kiddo are the dancing queens.
