I thought this was a fabulous idea when I saw it; making two kinds of simple textured paint to create a unique polar bear craft. Pure genius!Materials:
- puffy paint and sandy paint(see directions below)
- sheet of light blue construction paper
- polar bear template to trace
- pencil
Directions:
- Find a simple polar bear template and trace it onto the blue paper.
- Carefully spread puffy paint on the inside of the polar bear.
- Paint the bottom with sandy paint for the ground. Allow to dry.
The paints will retain a unique texture when dry.
Puffy Paint recipe
Combine equal parts white glue and shaving cream in a cup and mix well
Sandy Paint recipe
Combine equal parts craft sand and paint in a cup and mix well.
Make these special paints right before you use them. Afterward, they will take longer to dry than average paint. You can add a little colored paint to change the color. These textured paints are great for a great many crafts. Try them out soon. Read all about it at the original website, The Crafty Classroom
