Paint on Salt

Try SaltCraft, the art of painting on salt paper. Peel off the backing from a piece of clear contact paper. With sticky side up, cover thoroughly with Morton® Salt. Gently shake off excess salt. Let stand at least 48 hours.

With salty side up, place salt paper over a coloring book picture or a piece of plain paper. Use a paint brush and water colors to paint on surface of salt paper. Use light strokes when painting, rather than rubbing hard. Let dry, then remove the paper from under your design.

To give design a softer look, spray with fine mist of water. Glue design to background paper of your choice, with either textured or smooth side up.
