| Step 1 Choose your sand! We were super excited to find these huge containers of sand at our Dollar Store! |
| Measure out an equal amount of sand. 1/4 Cup. |
| Step 4 Mix well until your paint and sand are nice and gritty! It's now ready for your project. After painting, allow it to dry overnight. |
| Step 2 Decide how much paint you want to make! We will be using 1/4 Cup. |
| We used white texture paint to make the snow in our Polar Bear Painting! |
| Gritty texture paint creates a wonderful medium for children's craft projects, dioramas, and anything else that needs 3-D effect. Additionally it's a fantastic way for children to simply learn about texture in art. Provide them with different colors and let them experiment with different amounts of sand. |
