Summer is here, and so are trips to carnivals and amusement parks! Bring the nostalgia and fun home with this cute Cotton Candy Puff Paint craft. Thomas made this when he was a Tiny Town last summer, and I just had to share this adorable idea! Plus - you probably have all of the materials already on hand!

 Share your creations with us on Facebook and Instagram!

MATERIALS NEEDED: 

~shaving cream 

~white glue
~red and blue food coloring 

~large paintbrush 

~cotton candy cutout 

STEPS:

1. Mix equal parts of shaving cream and glue until it softens and starts to form peaks 

2. Separate into two containers and add blue food coloring to one and red to the other. Add coloring until desired color is reached. If you want, mix the pink and glue together for a cool spiral look! 

3. Paint with the puff paint right onto the cotton candy cutout. 

4. Let dry overnight.
