DIY Watercolours: A Different Kind Of Cake

Krista Rao blogs about crafty adventures with her kids

I save bottle caps. There, I said it. I save them for a variety of projects that I never really get around to… until now.

This weekend we used a very small portion of my caps to make watercolour cakes. As with my other tutorials, this is a very easy craft that you can make along side your kids and provides a lot of fun for everyone.

What you need:

  • 1 tbsp clear vinegar
  • 1 tbsp baking soda
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp corn syrup
  • food colouring
  • bottle caps
