Okay, this is a very interesting paint since the end result provides a very shiny finish to the painting. It isn’t a paint that you will want to save but much like tongue painting, you can have a lot of fun with this paint.
It is very easy to make, it provides a different texture to [...]

Crafty Recipes: Sidewalk Paint

Published by sirenavs under Crafty Recipes

I’m not sure about you, but for me summer means that I will be seeing a lot of time outside, whether I want to or not. My kids love to be outside in the sunshine and will be out playing with just about everything. They will mention, now and then, that they are a little [...]

Crafty Recipes: Paper Mache

Crafty Recipe: Goop

Published by sirenavs under Crafty Recipes

I am a huge fan of goop, not only is it a great experience for children to play in but it also feels great to just let your hands sink into it.  Goop has the wonderful properties where it will run when there is no resistance but add that resistance and it goes hard and chalky. [...]
