365 Days of Bliss – Homemade Finger Paints

Hey hey sweeties!! Laurie here today with a super easy recipe to make finger paints!! I don’t mind buying finger paints but it seems that we go through them so quickly. When I found this recipe and saw that I had all of the ingredients on-hand, I couldn’t wait to try it!!

Here’s what you need:

3 Tbsp sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 cup of corn starch

2 cups of water

Combine your ingredients into a small saucepan. Warm until mixture thickens.

Cool and pour into containers. Add food coloring to create desired colors.

Enjoy!!

Just a note….the only thing I wasn’t so crazy about with these was the food coloring staining the skin a bit, but really it wasn’t anything a good soak in the tub didn’t take care of!! 🙂

And finally for my last order of business today I get the privilege of selecting the layout of the week!! Oh my gosh!! SO many beautiful pages this week!! I ended up choosing this beauty by dianeskie.

I love love love the colors in that gorgeous photo and I really love how the colors of the kit were perfect for that photo!! It really is a happy layout and I think the design is fabulous!! Congrats Diane!! You’ll be receiving a PM from me shortly!!
