Autumn Spice Painting and Flower Prints


 We did a really fun craft the other day- painting with spices!

Spice paints are super easy to make- just mix about a teaspoon of spice with some water and begin painting!

Nutmeg, cinnamon, turmeric, ginger, paprika and cloves are the spices we used, but you could experiment with just about anything!


We painted on a fall leaf coloring page, but you could also paint freehand or whatever you want!

Another fun craft we did was Leaf and Flower Printing.

This was Rowan's idea :)


We collected flowers and leaves from the garden and laid them out on one half of the paper.

Next, you fold the paper in half and start pounding with a hammer!


You may get hungry, so it's important to have some raisins to snack on just in case ;)

The patterns and colors will transfer to both sides of the paper and you will have a symmetrical design!
