Recipe

Equal parts White flour and Salt
Paint
Squeeze Bottles
Sturdy paper or cardboard

Mix flour and salt. Add enough paint to make a paste. Put in squeeze bottles. Paint! The flour makes the combination puffy and 3D. The salt gives it a shiny iridescent quality when dry.

Geetle liked the idea of this craft project. I told her we would pretend we were painting with ketchup and mustard. Unfortunately, as a 4 year old, her squeeze power is not that strong. So, I had to make the paint and flour/salt combination runny enough to easily squeeze out of the bottle. That sort of ruined the effect. But, she enjoyed the process.

I would recommend saving this project for older kids (6-8) so that they have enough hand power to squeeze a thick paste through the bottles. You can also cut the bottle tips wider.
