Tin Foil Painting!

If you love painting, this can be a lot of fun! 

Craft Project Directions:
To make this project, you will need tin foil, tape, paint (tempura), brushes, and a smock if you wish.  You could also use a tiny bit of dishwashing liquid to help the paint stick to the foil better and not flake off as much when it drys.

To begin, roll out a large piece of tin foil and tape it to the surface you will be working on. Next take your paint and squirt a few squirts of different colored paint on different parts of the tin foil. Now start painting with your brushes or using your hands if you love the feel of paint. Mix the colors together, add more paint, have fun!
