I value creativity. I am inspired by others and I am always trying to push myself with new ideas and a little out of the box thinking. I’m trying to instill not only the flair for creativity into my kids but the appreciation of it as well. Last week we were looking at watercolor art in a local restaurant and I was pointing out to the kids the way the colors blend into each other. While my daughter got the concept, my 7 year old Autistic son did not. He just couldn’t picture it. So instead he obsessed over it until I decided to work up a little hands-on art project. Now, I know I said that I value creativity but, I also value clean clothes. Nothing makes me more frustrated then kids ruining their newest $40 outfit with a $1 painted craft project. (yeah, it happened recently so I’m still a little bitter!) So, this week’s project was all about discovering clean watercolors!
Supplies:
Wooden animals (I found these great wooden creatures at our local Michaels. They were $1-4/piece and had TONS to choose from… run there QUICK!)
Water
Paintbrushes
Tombow Dual Brush Pens (even if they get a little on their clothes it washes out!)
Polyurethane Spray (or any other simple top coat)
For the watercolor effect on wood I dipped all the creatures in water for a few minutes first. Then I let them loose with the markers. It was fun to see them watch what was happening to the colors at first, then they really got into it and started dipping the brush end of their Dual Brush Pens into a tiny bit of water before coloring the animals! (They won’t loose their color, and it creates a completely different effect). The kids love that you can see the wood grain through the color too. Once they were done with coloring, they used the paintbrushes to blend in the empty spots and then we let it dry overnight and sprayed it with a light coat of poly to seal in the color. The kids loved learning about the effects of water and color and I loved that I got a chance to show them new CREATIVE ways to look at simple things (that and the fact that they were still so clean at the end of an afternoon of fun!). This was such an easy project I bet we have an entire zoo by the end of the summer!

Fun filled weekend around here and this morning my kids and I are grooving to oldies and attempting to clean so that I can work on an amazing kids project with them for the rest of the week. More details on that soon, promise! You thought I forgot about that Tombow prize didn’t you? Never! I decided to hold off until today… Today’s prize pack? ta-dum!

What if you don’t win that prize pack either? Wait, there’s more. We love our YouTube followers and commenters too! So here’s a YouTube Challenge for you. I’ve posted that Paper Hibiscus How-To Video on YouTube, all you have to do is go watch it and make a comment (on the hibiscus video) telling us what kind of projects you like seeing on YouTube (and maybe tell me how I can get more of those stem-do-dad’s?) and you’ll be entered for a chance to win another prize pack that is pictured above! We’ll announce the winner of the YouTube challenge later this week.
Have a Happy Monday and Good Luck!
