The truth is, I have never really been afraid to make a mess. In fact, we do it quite often here! This technique is just another fun way to finger paint!
Let's get started!
Let's get started!
Lay a piece of wax paper on the table and put a piece of construction paper on top of it. Then add a few colors. Try to keep your paint towards the center so it does not ooze out the side when you start painting!
Add a second sheet of wax paper.
Now the fun begins!
Carefully remove the wax paper.
The colors all blend really well! With no mess!
This is a great way to make:
Those ARE perfect fall leaves!

Very cool! I can't wait to try this. Thanks
ReplyDeleteThis is cool! I pinned it:)
ReplyDeletePerfect! We will be doing this for sure.
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love the way these leaves look. I was wondering how you display them. Framed? Magnets? Scattered on a table?
ReplyDeleteChristie,
ReplyDeleteWe like to make a Fall display on the inside of our front door. We usually hang all of the girls' paintings and add the leaves around them. However, any of your ideas would be great! I especially like the idea of framing them because then they last forever. :)
