Soapsuds Pictures
By OreO
Soapsud pictures is a fun and creative way for kids to make cards or pictures to show for art in school...
Materials
- 1 cup of dry detergent or a capfull of liquid detergent
- 2 tablespoons of liquid starch
- Brown wrapping paper
- Poster paints or food coloring
- An egg beater
- A mixing bowl
- A spoon
- An old newspaper
1. Beat the detergent and the liquid starch with an egg beater in a mixing bowl. When it is like thick marshmallow frosting, you have beaten it enough. Now you have enough soapsuds for painting three or four pictures. If you want soapsuds of several different colors, put the mixture into different jars. Then add just a few drops of color to the different jars and stir. Put down a newspaper to work on.
2. Dip the colored soapsuds from the jar with your fingers and paint on some brown wrapping paper. If you want a darker color, add more coloring until you get the shade you want.
3. If the soapsuds thicken too much to paint with easily, add a little more starch when you are painting and beat it into the mixture with a spoon. When you have finished your picture, let it dry lying flat on the newspaper before you show it.
