Painting with Epsom Salt

We added 1/2 cup of epsom salt to 1/2 cup boiling water then stirred til all the salt was dissolved.


The girls painted the epsom salt water onto dark colored cardstock.


Once dried it looked liked the picture was painted with crystals.


Keira painted a snowflake.


Leilani painted Elsa from Frozen.

Crayon Lipstick

We were watching some videos online when we came across a "How To" video for crayon lipstick. The instructions were easy and we happen to have all the ingredients so we decided to give it a whirl.


All that's needed is a half teaspoon of Coconut Oil, a little dab of Vaseline and a crayon. Once we peeled and broke up the crayon we put all ingredients into a small jar and placed it in a sauce pan with boiling water. Once everything is melted we mixed it together and poured into small plastic containers and placed in the fridge for 15 minutes. 


Once the lipstick was ready, the girls grabbed a lipstick brush to test it out.


Keira went with pink and Leilani tried a blue color but they can wait to try out more colors.
