DIY Sugar water paintings

You all know how children love to paint and get messy ! Well guess what!  There is one more way to make them happy.
Painting with sugar water and watercolors is a marvelous technique and it’s really easy to make. Lets make this yummi way to paint!!!

All you need is:

• 150 ml water
• 100 gr sugar

1. Let the mixture of water and sugar boil until you see that the sugar has melted. It doesn’t take more than 5 min to be done. It should look like a syrup but a little bit more watery. 

2. Protect your table with a plastic table cloth.  It tends to get really messy and sticky! 

3.Take a big brush and spread the paper with our sugar water mixture it should look something like this on your paper. Glossy right?

4. Then use your watercolors to paint whatever you love to paint and see the magical effect appear on your paper. 

Tips! The watercolors should be really watery so that the colors spreads in the syrup. 

Let the paper dry flat for as much as it needs. It might need several hours to dry but it will dry at the end and you will have an amazing marbled painting. Something like these like my little monsters did.

Have fun and be creative!!!! :)

Until next time
