Window Painting {and It's My Blogiversary!}


One year ago I was a mom looking for arts/craft ideas to do with my young daughters.
What I found was amazing!
Brilliant bloggers writing about things they were doing at home with their little ones,
I had to join in on the fun!
One year later, I'm a mom blogger hoping to inspire other moms to introduce arts/crafts to their little ones.

My very first post was 
so
for my blogiversary I decided to do another window art post.

Window Painting!
It's so simple.
All you need is paint
(you can use powdered or liquid tempera)
and 
dish soap
I added the (liquid) paint first
then added the dish soap until I got a consistency I liked
(keep in mind that the dish soap thins the paint)
Set out the paint and brushes and let everyone go at it!
The girls really loved painting on the window. 
Experimenting with 
mixing colors
making shapes and designs
 using their fingers
playing on the fact that the paint drips
 Mostly,
 they just love creating together
 Before and After
Thank you all for such wonderful support throughout my first year!
I hope you'll stick with me through my second!

    1. You're right! It's pretty daunting to get over the "mess factor" but luckily for this activity it cleans up quite easily because of the dish soap!
      This paint is also great for painting on the windows from the outside and also for bath time! :)
