Outdoor Painting And Wallpapering Area

[Guest]

I fancy doing something like making patterned wallpaper with the children then having a board outside where they can cut, paste, and hang the wallpaper. Has anyone ever done anything like this before?

Nope, but it's a cracking idea. Let us know how you get on, I might be borrowing your idea.

ooh sounds brill, let me know how you get on. My thoughts would be to use a lining type wallpaper and scrounge leftover emulsion from parents for making a printed pattern, as for cutting and pasting, I can see my lot having great fun with that

Slightly off topic, but today I saw something another childminder has just done. She's made an outdoor painting area by stripping back a sign and fixing it to an outside wall. She's suggested the a piece of Perspex could work well which she thought might cost about £30.

 

Enjoy your Arts and Crafts project.

We have perspex walls around our decking and we use this for painting or using shaving foam directly on it. Hadn't thought of wall papering - interesting!
