Glue & Shaving Cream Paint
I saw this on some site and I can’t believe how well it worked! Anyone with kids NEEDS TO TRY THIS! You mix equal amounts of shaving cream and glue and then paint with it. I thought it would be fun on black paper to make clouds and ghosts (I cut out little circles of black paper to add to the ghosts for eyes). We used a butter knife and paint brushes to apply the glue paint. Once you’re done painting you need to put it out of reach from the kids until its dry (roughly overnight) and it dries nice and puffy and looks really neat. You can add a little regular paint to make different colors and next time we’ll try that. Maybe some glitter sprinkled onto the still wet but finished painting would be a nice addition. Oh and don’t go crazy making a ton of this paint, it won’t last more than a day.
I am pregnant with #4 and tired and lack motivation so there is no picture to go along with this (really bugs me to post with no picture but I need to get over that).

We’ll have to try this. My boys love to paint.
I tried doing the shaving cream and glue, and it looked GREAT when first applied, but after it dried it wasn’t puffy at all. It looked just like regular paint. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong! I don’t know if I’m using the wrong kind of shaving cream or what. I would be very grateful if you would get back to me! Thanks so much!
My daughter used this in her Pre-K class to make a beautiful painting of bumblebees made out of finger prints and the hive was made from the puffy paint. Really cool! So, my 10 year old son is doing a project about Neptune. He is making a poster and using the Shaving Cream paint to make a 3-D of Neptune. I needed the recipe and just found this on Google Search. Thanks!
