How to make mashed potato stamping art

What you need:

  • Potato masher – the more shapes, the more fun, but it’s okay if you only use one
  • Washable paint
  • paper
  • paper plate or tray

Step-by-step instructions

Paper plates come in really handy for projects like this, especially if you don’t have a tray for this purpose.

Svg%3E

Pour paint into tray or plate. You can work with one type of paint or use a variety of colors.

We recommend less paint if you’re working with a child and more paint if you’re working with a larger group. This will prevent paint from being wasted.

Eco-friendly tip: if you use paper plates, apply paint to the entire paper plate when finished. You can use painted paper plates to make fun paper plate crafts with your kids later.

Dip the potato masher in the paint. If you have a larger group, you can use a grinder with a paint.
