Do you know that cup of colored water that inevitably gets knocked over whenever your kids are painting? This hack solves that.
You can handle a little paint. Especially watercolor paints, which can’t spill, as they’re not liquid until your child dips their brush into a cup of water. And especially washable watercolor paints!
The problem here is that cup of water. The one that always turns into different colors pretty quickly. It inevitably gets knocked off, drenching everything.
Here’s a solution that will make the project all the more fun! You’ll need one balloon per cup. Start by cutting off the top half of the balloon.
Stretch it out.
And place it like a cover over a glass cup.
Press in the mouth of the balloon.
That’s where they’re going to insert their paintbrush to access the water.
Ta-da! Now let that water turn over. No worries, the cup is now spill-proof!
Now it’s time for a project.
Now, mom isn’t going to hesitate for a second when the kids want to paint! It’s a win-win solution for all of us.
