Drawing Dough

A cross between paint and dough, this delightful concoction is fun to squeeze out into puffy, colorful designs. As it dries, the salt in the dough crystallizes, leaving behind a glittering abstraction that, like a Rorschach inkblot, is open to interpretation. Here's how to make enough for 2 bottles!


Materials

• 2/3 cup each of water, flour, and salt
• Washable tempera paints
• Squeeze bottles

Directions

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the water, flour, and salt (the dough will be just barely pourable).
2. Divide the dough between two bowls and stir a few drops of washable tempera paint into each. 
3. Pour the dough into squeeze bottles.
