Acrylic spray painting fun

Yesterday afternoon we made our faux-tie-dye acrylic paint shirts and Nico loved it so much that he wanted to spray again. So I pulled out 2 little canvases for him to spray with the left over paint.

We did it with the canvases laying down to avoid dripping and so it would keep the spray look. He loved it! As most toddlers do he overlapped the colors a lot, lol.

It looked awesome while wet but it mixed further while drying, but it still looks nice, don’t you think?

Simple inexpensive fun, just the way we like it :)

Options:
You could also do this on cardboard, if you don’t have a canvas.
You could even decorate a cardboard creation (car, house, train, plane, boat, etc) this way, would be really fast and pretty.
Add glitter while the paint is wet for some sparkle.

If you do this, we’d LOVE to see a photo of it. Email it
to us or post it on our Facebook page. We’d love to do a Facebook album, a Pinterest board and a page of your creations
:-)
