Guest Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Hi does anyone have a 'recipe' for mixing paint and bicarb to make puffy paint please? Thanks for your help
wellerkaren Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I found this I hope this helps Puffy Paint Great Fun for Kids! Equal parts of flour, salt, and water Food Coloring Cardboard squares or heavy paper Plastic squeeze bottles Mix equal parts of flour, salt, and water in a bowl. Add the food coloring to get the desired color. Pour into the empty plastic squeeze bottles (empty mustard or ketchup bottles). Squeeze out onto cardboard or heavy paper. Mixture will harden in a puffy shape. Colors will pool together without mixing together. Experiment with designs and patterns! Kids love it!

Guest Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Hi Thanks for replying I tried this once before with a recipe from a book but it did not say to add salt, which is probably why it did not work! I will use your recipe this time!! Thanks very much
dublinbay Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Sounds great! I haven't used this before but will certainly try it now. Thanks for the recipe Karen.
Guest Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I used to use that recipe then carefully dry the picture in the microwave for a few seconds (not too long or it may burn). This made it fluff upeven more and give a different texture. Peggy
