Guest Blogger Sunday {The Color Palette}

 Welcome to my first Guest Blogger Sunday!

Today my guest blogger is from the fabulous blog The Color Palette: Exploring Art with Kids.

Dot Stampers are so much fun but they are expensive and once the paint is gone you have to throw them away and get more. Well now you don't, I started seeing these over the net last fall and went out and for 1 dollar we have been doing Dot Stamper art over and over.

Need: Go to the floral department of your grocery store and ask for the vials they put water in for cut flowers. Some give these for free, mine charges .25 cents each and I bought 4.


Now all you do is fill them full of water and some drops of food coloring (need to use the liquid for this art activity) they don't leak if sitting on their side. They work just like dot stampers and make such pretty art.


Water Color Dot Stampers:


You can also add just a tiny bit of paint and some water to make paint stampers.


Paint Dot Stampers:


We used paper towels for this art project but we have used card stock also.

Wasn't that such a great idea!! So clever!
