Making Window Clings

Last weekend when we had the girls over, we made window clings for them to put on their bedroom windows. They were made from glue, dish soap and food coloring. 

First we made this glue mix:

3 tablespoons white school glue
4 drops dish soap
I made a triple batch and then divided it up in paper cups.
I let the girls add food coloring to make the colors they wanted and this is our finished product.

Then, they used paint brushes to paint designs onto sheet protectors.  We found out that glue isn't easy to paint with.  Also, we had to make sure the designs we painted were thick enough to peel off and put on a window.

Goofing off for the camera.

Here's some of their work.  They loved mixing colors, coming up with designs and painting these.

Alaina with some of hers.

When we brought them home, some of the thicker ones weren't dry and one had something fall on it.  Hopefully the others dried and made it onto the windows.  It was a fun project.
