With the Easter holidays now in full swing, it’s time to get working on some holiday crafts. Using bits and bobs that are already around the house is a great way to inspire your little ones, and this simple trick will guarantee hours of fun and creativity.
What you will need:
- One potato, halved
- Paints
- A knife
- A paintbrush
- Paper
Before you begin, it’s important to note that adult supervision is always advised when using knives and sharp tools.
Method:
- Cut the potato in half to create two stampers. Decide on the design you want to feature on each stamper, then carve the shapes along the inside.
- If you want to use one colour on your stamper, you can dunk it directly into the paint; alternatively, if you want to use a series of different colours, use your paintbrush to apply it onto your stamper.
- Press the stamper down on the paper, careful not to move it for fear of smudging your pretty design.
Tip: Why not use this trick to make a pretty Easter card for a loved-one?
