Wax Candle Painting

by Grandma Lizzie

You’ll Need:
1. Wax candle (you could also use a white crayon)
2. Watercolor paper
3. Watercolors
4. Paint brush

Directions:
On a sheet of watercolor paper, have your child or grandchild draw a picture with the wax candle or white crayon. Using watercolors paint the entire sheet. When the paint dries, the original wax drawing will show through.
