Homemade Poster Paint Recipe

Flour-Based Poster Paint

This homemade Poster Paint recipe is very easy to make, and will save you lots of money if your kids love crafts like mine does.  My daughter really enjoys making this paint with me and prefers it over store bought because she makes it.

Materials

  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 cup water
  • Small jars or plastic containers
  • 3 tablespoons powdered tempera paint per container
  • 2 tablespoons water per container
  • 1/2 teaspoon liquid starch or liquid detergent per container (optional)

Directions

Measure flour into saucepan. Slowly add 1 cup water while stirring to make a smooth paste. Heat, stirring constantly, until paste begins to thicken. Cool. Measure 1/4 cup paste into each small container. Add 3 tablespoons powdered tempera paint and 2 tablespoons water to each container. For a matte finish, add liquid starch. For a glossy finish, add liquid detergent. Store covered.
