you can also add elmers glue to the shaving cream and the design will stay puffed on what ever you are making. We make snowmen on paperplates like this in the winter. You can’t mail them, but they turn out awesome! I can’t wait to try the food coloring with it!

In reply to Mel. I can't say for sure because we've never tried it but I would think they'd work just as well. Just try it with a small puddle of shaving cream and a drop or two of the watercolours to test, Mel.

Hi Jackie, will liquid watercolours work instead of the food colouring? Not sure if the colors will “transfer” as well, what do you think?

In reply to Still Playing School. Thanks, Devany! I think you said on my page you do this with paint, right? What kind of paint do you use? Watercolours or acrylics?

This is lovely – as a teacher that specialises in children with learning difficulties and additional needs I’m always looking for sensory based arts & crafts! Will be using this for Mother’s Day! Thank you!

In reply to MapleMouseMama. I just emailed you, Suz, but yes, I think this would be a hit with a couple of 10 year olds! *I* personally LOVE doing it, and I'm a whole lot older than they are. lol

If you mix PVA glue with the shaving foam it will set

Jackie, I love this idea ( like pretty much all of your ideas, LOL). Do you think a couple of ten year old girls would be interested? I need some relatively small, short on time craft ideas for a sleepover, but I think this would be fun for the mess factor!!
