A note on the shaving cream: Please avoid the super scented ones like Barbosol as the scent may linger on your paper for months. Also, since we will be working in a large group with lots of shaving cream we don't want to create a perfume scented overload for our senses. Please see the brand suggestions in the list below.
Here are examples of Lara's shaving cream marbled papers |
What to bring:
- One can of Shaving cream (NOT GEL!) Lara recommends these brands from the Dollar Store: 1. Assured Men's Shave Cream (sensitive). It comes in a red can and has just a slight soapy smell. 2. Assured Ultra Rich Women's Shave Cream (sensitive). This is raspberry scented but not too strong and it comes in a fuchsia colored can.
- Colorants: Food coloring. Also, liquid acrylic paints for added interest.
- A shallow glass or plastic pan big enough to hold an 8 1/2 x 11" sheet of paper.
- A spatula to smooth the shaving cream.
- Chopsticks, Popsicle sticks or other similar tool for stirring.
- A small paint brush for spattering paint.
- Cardstock of various colors, including whites, pastels and brights.
