How to Make Paint From Berries


Ingredients:

1 cup berries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup cornstarch
Water
Bar of soap (without dye or fragrance)
Grater

1. Make the colorant. Thaw frozen berries in a colander over a bowl or simmer fresh berries in 1 cup of water for 30 minutes.

2. Strain the berries. Keep the liquid and reserve the berries for another use.

3. Grate the bar of soap to achieve 1/3 cup of soap flakes.

4. Put the soap flakes in a bowl and pour 1/2 cup of boiling water over them. Stir the mixture until the flakes dissolve.

5. Combine cornstarch with 1/2 cup of water to make a paste. Stir the paste into the soap mixture.

6. Add berry juice until desired color is achieved.

Caution: Berry juice may stain clothing and countertops. Protect clothing and surfaces and have tools on hand to clean up any messes.




BERRY IS A COLOR! BERRY IS A PAINT COLOR!!!
nope. berries can be used to make paint but the paint will be PURPLE!


BECAUSE PURPLE IS A COLOR!

OR BLUE BECAUSE SOME BERRIES ARE NOT PURPLE

LIKE RASPBERRIES THEY ARE RED!!!
