Homemade Finger Paint

Friday night I made finger paint. I found this recipe on a blog and it sounded like a fun and cheap activity. Honestly, once it was ready I wasn't that impressed. It was the consistency of pudding and it was very light in color. I added more food coloring to the mix and it just wouldn't change.

Here is the recipe:

2 Tablespoons Cornstarch

2 Tablespoons Cold Water

1 Cup Boiling Water

Food Coloring

Dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water. Add food coloring. When the water is boiling pour into the cornstarch mixture and stir. It will start to thicken very fast. Let cool and its ready to use.

It can be kept in a covered container for a couple of days.

This is what it looks like after its finished

Eiz didn't mind that it was light in color. She loved making a mess!!
