Earth Day Art Lessons: Reuse, Reduce, Recycle Poster!

We may have officially celebrated Earth Day yesterday but that doesn't mean we can't keep creating...and reminding our friends and family to Reuse, Reduce and Recycle! Let me show you how to make paint with just markers and a pop-up with just paper. Grab some paper, markers, a permanent marker, water and a paintbrush as well as scissors and glue and let's get creating!

Earth Day Art Lessons: Salt Dough Earth!

Yesterday, during our LIVE art class on my Facebook page and my Instagram, we created a Salt Dough Solar System and it was a crowd favorite! In case you missed, that video will be posted to my YouTube channel later today (to stay up to date on art makin' videos, you might want to subscribe!). I decided to take that same idea and create this Salt Dough Earth project. Let me walk you through how to make salt dough clay with just 1/2 cup of flour, 1/4 water and a 1/4 of salt. We used food coloring to create the primary colors of clay. If you don't have the ingredients, don't worry, use Play-Doh or another type of clay instead. I also use a piece of cardboard, crayons and a marker. Here we go:
Have fun!

 And here's the how-to video:
I'm really excited about today's art project: Salt Dough Solar System! Here's the supplies I'll be creating with. If you would prefer to use Play-Doh or any other clay you already have, go for it! I'll be sharing how to make the clay at the start of class and then we'll get to creating from there. You can join me LIVE on my Instagram, Facebook or catch the afterparty on my YouTube channel. I'm now adding tons of videos to my channel so you might want to subscribe to create with me. 
See you real soon!
