Yet it doesn’t take days like some recipes! This one will be dry to the touch within about 30 minutes, although you can still stick things in by giving them a little push for another hour if you need to.

We turned some of our puffy snow paint into stunning winter window art! We used a glue stick ton the inside of a laminator sheet, sprinkled with glitter / snowflakes, close the sheet and laminated. Then we made our snowman on the laminator sheet. We hung our winter art project on the window for some truly beautiful artwork we will enjoy all winter long!

      sure, just make sure you don’t put it on so thick that gravity takes hold before it dries =) Should clean off with windex or your favorite window cleaner.

    Is it ok to borrow your puffy paint recipe so that I can make it together with a group of children?
