Description
A fun and engaging DIY art project using salt, glue, and food coloring to create vibrant, fireworks-like designs.
Ingredients
- White watercolor paper or cardboard
- PVA glue (white school glue)
- Table salt
- Liquid food coloring
- Small cups or containers for mixing colors
- Paintbrush or dropper
- Tray or baking sheet (to catch excess salt)
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace with newspaper or a plastic tablecloth for easy cleanup and gather all materials.
- Use PVA glue to draw shapes, swirls, or lines on the paper and let it dry slightly for about 10-15 minutes.
- Sprinkle salt generously over the wet glue designs.
- Add a few drops of food coloring to small cups and use a paintbrush or dropper to apply colors on the salt to watch them spread.
- Allow your painting to dry completely, ideally overnight, for the salt to crystallize.
