Make: Watercolors

by Designing Mom Sara of Creative Jewish Mom

Water-Colors-Making-Your-Ow

Doesn't this look irresistible? It is! And you can get started on this fun activity right away, using supplies that you most likely have in your pantry. Okay, you may not have light corn syrup (I certainly didn't) but you can substitute glucose syrup which you can cook up yourself with some regular old sugar! (Boil 2 cups sugar with 1 cup of water until you have a clear syrup.) And I'm happy to say that I can now cross one thing off my list of great recycled craft materials (here), as tea-light holders are perfect little water-color paint pots, practically and aesthetically.
You'll find the complete recipe and instructions here.
