Did you all see me over at Mess for Less a couple weeks ago? I did a guest post on Comb Painting but just in case
you missed it...here it is!
I don't know if you have seen paint scrapers before. They are about $3 for a few different style scrapers. Problem is...I can't seem to find them in a store and paying the shipping doesn't make it worth it for me.
If you want to get the same look {of at least one of them} you can use some combs! I got a pack of 10 at my dollar store.
Grab some paint, paper and combs
{there was a mix of smaller and larger combs so we used one of each}
Make a strip {I had to make strips all down the paper since it didn't scrape down very much} of paint. You can also have your child drip paint all over. Bug wanted me to do it.
Start scraping!
If your child is anything like mine they will want to use their fingers to paint too.
You might find me at some of these child centered link parties here.

I haven't done this, but was thinking that you should be able to cut the similiar shapes out of the combs. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteJust had another thought, also. Take gift cards (plastic credit card-like things)and cut shapes from them.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! I will have to try those. I usually save my used gift cards for Bug to play with so I have some laying around to cut up. :)
Deletemessy fun! yay!
