Homemade! - Puffy Paint
By Kayla • April 3, 2018

We love the idea of homemade art materials! This summer {when your kiddos are petitioning you for something fun to do because they're bored} add some dimension to your paintings with homemade puffy paint!
Supplies You'll Need
- Small plastic cups or bowls
- White craft glue
- Shaving cream
- Craft sticks {or another utensil for stirring}
- Food coloring
The recipe is easy peasy; simply add equal parts white craft glue and shaving cream to the plastic cup, throw in a few drops of food coloring, and stir away!

Use the paint to create fun scenes...

...or spread wax paper on a cookie sheet, swirl the different colors of homemade puffy paint together, place a piece of card stock over top the design, then peel it away to reveal a colorful {dimensional} print! [Like the ones below...]

Whether you brush, squeeze, dab, or swirl this homemade puffy paint, your kiddos are sure to name this one of their favorite summer "boredom busters"!
