Truly magical, you never know exactly how the colors will bleed out with this project. Good for all ages, maybe start with a 3 year old who can control a glue bottle and paint brush. Fun!

Materials:
- glue
- salt
- paper
- small brush
- watercolors

Draw a simple image or design on any color paper. Follow your lines
with a glue tip or Q-tip dipped in glue. Sprinkle salt on your paper. Dust off extra salt. let dry 5 minutes..

Dip brush in watercolor tap lightly anywhere on the salt drawing and you will see it bleed. Continue until all salt is filled with lots of colors. The brightest colors make the most dynamic pieces!
