Fall Art Kit: Fall Banner
Today, as promised, we did the fall banner from the Fall Art Kit.
The kids were excited to use the “special markers” we bought just for this project. LOL! Yes, we have other washable markers but these were speeecciiiiaaallll. *giggle*
Sam and I painted the glue solution while discusing the nature of a “solution.” (Who knew science was involved in this!) We had trouble getting the canvas to absorb the solution though. The first time we peeled the transfers and plastic off the colors didn’t transfer too well. So I painted the areas on the canvas where the transfers where and reapplied. The second time was a little better. I am wondering if prewetting the canvas would help get a more even transfer…? Not sopping, just slightly damp.
These are the “transfers.” I am letting them dry and thinking about hanging them from the banner! I could have so much fun just painting coffee filter leaves and decorating the house with them. LOL!
