Rainbows! Why are there so many crafts about them? Well, they’re an actual thing that exists in the world… kind of, but they’re also a colorway. I even have a friend whose “favorite color is rainbow” and she defends that statement before you even raise an eyebrow! Makers are constantly inspired by them and will recreate their colors - as the classic rainbow arch across the sky or as the visible light spectrum manifested across a surface in any medium. Here we have just a smattering of the beautiful rainbow projects made by our members.
A rainbow can be the main theme.

Rainbow crafts do not stop with colored arches across the sky or stripes and ombre across our projects.
Creators also love abstractions of refractions!
