Halloween Fun

Saturday is Halloween. Here is a way to make homemade face paints.

1tsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. cold cream
1/2 tsp. water
a drop or two of food coloring

Stir together cornstarch and cold cream until well blended. Add water and stir. Add coloring, one drop at a time to desired color is achieved. Store covered. Remove with soap and water. Hint: Orange = 2 drops of yellow, 1 drop of red. Turquoise = 3 drops of blue, 1 drop of green. Violet = 2 drops of blue, 1 drop of red. Have fun with your homemade face paints. Adult supervision for little ones is always a good idea.
