INSTRUCTIONS

1 Mix vinegar and baking soda in small bowl. Slowly add cornstarch and glycerin.
2 Pour one teaspoon into each paper cup. Let dry overnight.
3 After they've dried, add food color. The color isn't as deep when it dries, so remember to add a lot of food color.
4 Dip a small paint brush into some water, and then into your paint. Use good construction paper that will soak up some of the water.
