It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

Make Your Own Custom Watercolor Paints

Water color paints are a wonderful art medium for kids and adults.  For kids, they are a gentle start to the world of painting and for adults, you can create with water colors in a way that other types of paint do not really allow.

Here is a wonderful tutorial that shows you how easy it is to make your own watercolors!

You can create your own custom color palette with simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen.

This is a really fun project for kids to help with, too.  Especially because another great thing about these paints is that they are mostly non-toxic.  (I say “mostly” since we don’t want the kids eating food coloring, but if they ingested some, it would be okay.)
