I hope you enjoyed a nice Easter with family and friends! Today, Mumford and I are stuck inside because it's raining too hard to play outside. We were hoping to find some indoor crafts we can do together. We found an easy and fun way to make a colorful name plaque. We hope you like it, too! How To Make a Colorful Name Plaque What you need • White card stock or thin cardboard • White glue • Food coloring and water • Ice cube tray • Pencil • Table salt • Medicine droppers • A tray or baking pan What you dp • Fill the ice tray with water and add drops of food dye to each ice well. Use a different color in each ice well. Set aside. • Print your name with the pencil on a piece of white card stock. • Trace all of the letters with white glue. • Place the card in a baking pan. The pan contains any mess and makes it easy to save any leftover salt for a future clown project. • Cover the glue entirely with salt. (See photo on right) • Shake the tray back and forth to make sure all of the glue is coated. Tap away any loose salt. • Using medicine droppers, take water from the ice cube tray filled with colored water. Carefully squeeze the water onto the salt drop by drop and watch the salt absorb the bright colors! (See top photo) • Let dry for 15-25 minutes. HAVE FUN!
