Homemade Sidewalk Chalk Paint

Hello All!

Welcome to another day of creative fun at Creativity Corner. This project could span to a lot of our FPLS students. We are making homemade Sidewalk Chalk Paint! I chose to work on a paint v.s. chalk project because I assumed most of us do not have plaster of paris laying around our house-I definitely do not! :)



Materials:
-containers for the paint (I would suggest old cottage cheese jars with lids, empty ketchup bottles or     even a muffin tin
-water
-corn starch
-food coloring
-brushes (Check out our Make Your Own Brushes post   to https://creativitycorner20.blogspot.com/2020/03/make-your-own-paint-brushes.html)

Step 1:
Clean out and prepare your paint containers.

Step 2:
Mix 1/2 cup of corn starch and 2/3 cup of water together.

Step 3:
Add food coloring until you are pleased with your color.

Step 4:
Repeat the process as many times as you like to create more color options. Keep in mind food coloring can mix just like paint! Yellow + Blue = Green.

Step 5:
Paint away the quarantine blues! :)



As always, have fun and be creative!
