We had a wonderful week of July Art Camp last week. Many of you asked about the children's amazing marble paintings. I assure you, they made them themselves! Here's an easy way for you to try the marbeling at home.
You'll need:
shaving cream
pan
paper
food coloring
tooth pick
popsicle stick

How to:
Spread shaving cream in bottom of pan. Drip a few colors of food coloring onto shaving cream. Drag tooth pick through food coloring making a marbeled pattern in shaving cream. Place paper ontop of shaving cream. Press gently. Remove. Scrape shaving cream off of paper with popsicle stick. Voila! You have a beautiful piece of marbeled paper!

Ok, so you missed out on July Camp or want to sign your kids up for another awesome week of Camp? No worries. We have 2, count them, 2 more weeks of Camp coming up in August.
