Raised salt painting is an all-time favorite art activity that is loved by all ages from toddlers on up. Glue, salt, and watercolors are all you need for this simple art activity, also known as salty watercolors. To learn more, visit: artfulparent.com/raised-salt-...
Materials Needed:
•Sturdy paper
•Glue
•Liquid watercolor paints
•Paint brush
•Salt
•Tray (to put salt in)
Instructions:
1. Use the glue to draw any design you like
2. Cover generously with salt and shake off excess
3. Use the watercolor to dab on color and watch it spread like magic!
4. Let your creation dry overnight. Raised salt paintings dry hard and crystalline. It's such a cool effect! (These paintings don't keep well over time, however... you can display them on a wall, but they may eventually start to crumble)
