Paint Mixing In Bags

I know this is nothing original, but it was a huge hit with my daughter and the neighborhood kids.  All we did was mix paint colors in plastic baggies. The great thing is.....there is no mess!  I hung some of the paint mixing bags on the window like sun catchers. I love how they look!


To create Paint Bags you'll need:

Baggies with the zipper top
Paint like tempera or acrylic


Place the paint in the bag.



Squish the paint together.



 A great way to experiment with mixing colors without the mess...



We did a lot!



You can draw over the paint.



Make no-mess handprints.



Pretty cool?



No mess printing with objects...



Results....



My favorite is when I hung them on the window..... Paint Bag Sun Catchers!!!!!


Again, something so simple always has so many possibilities.....try mixing other things in bags...let me know the results!

If you don't have paint you could use shaving cream and food colors.


What projects have you done with Plastic Bags?
