Mix 1 part water with 1 part corn starch. Shake or stir to combine. (I put 1 cup of corn starch with 1 cup of water in a mason jar. Put a lid on and shook it hard for 30 seconds.)
Pour your chalk paint base into/onto your pallet. (I used a muffin tin.)
Drop a few drops of food coloring or watercolor paint into your paint and stir to combine. Add more drops for a more vibrant shade. Don’t forget to mix colors to get different colors… red and yellow for orange, red and blue for purple, blue and yellow for green, etc.
Take your paint outside and have fun creating art! Mix the paint with your brush a little bit each time you dip in for more paint for best results. The corn starch will start to settle.
The colors will become even more vibrant as your chalk paint starts to dry. Want to turn it into a splatter paint party? Load your brush up and shake your brush with a flip of the wrist! Have fun!
