Making art with kids doesn’t have to mean expensive supplies or complicated tools. Sometimes, the best materials are the ones you make at home. That’s why I created The Art Recipe Book—a free PDF full of easy, affordable recipes for DIY art materials.
Why DIY Materials?
Because they’re simple, affordable, and versatile. These recipes use ingredients you probably already have in your home—like flour, water, and glue. You won’t need fancy equipment either. A mixing bowl, some spoons, and your hands are all you need.
DIY materials also open up endless possibilities. With just a few basic recipes, you can create salt dough ornaments, papier-mâché sculptures, or even marbled paper.
They’re great for rainy-day projects, classroom activities, or just having fun with your kids.
What’s Inside?
The Art Recipe Book includes clear, step-by-step instructions for six versatile materials:
- Salt dough: Perfect for sculpting and keepsakes.
- Papier-mâché: Great for lightweight sculptures or masks.
- Slime: Squishy fun for sensory play.
- Oobleck: A hands-on science experiment with a twist.
- Floating ink: Create mesmerizing marbled patterns with this simple water-based technique.
- Paper pulp: Sculpt or make homemade paper with recycled materials.
Each recipe is easy to follow, with tips on how to use the material and ideas for creative projects you can try with your kids.
Who Is It For?
Whether you’re a parent looking for weekend activities, a teacher planning a classroom project, or just someone who loves hands-on creativity, this book is for you.
These recipes are simple enough for kids to help with and flexible enough to adapt to whatever you want to make.
