This is a great window paint recipe. When you are ready to add a little decoration to your house or car windows you can use this great window paint recipe. Now you are ready for those football games, group field trips, or holiday decorations. This recipe will save you from having to purchase those expensive window paint markers and it's a lot more fun. There are several different colors of washable and tempera paint available also so you are no longer limited like with regular window paints.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

Dish soap
Washable liquid Paint or Powdered Tempera Paint
Plastic container
Spoon
Paintbrush

Step 1

To make Window Paint you will first need to determine how many different colors you would like. Make sure you have a bowl out for each color. I prefer to use a large plastic bowl for my window paint. I would hate for someone to accidentally drop the bowl and get cut.
Step 2

Add liquid dish soap to each of the bowls. I usually start out with a cup of liquid dish soap. You can always make more if you need it.
Step 3

Now add the same amount of paint to the bowl as you did liquid soap. For my example you will add a cup of paint. Make sure you use either washable liquid paint or powdered tempera paint for best results. If you are trying to create a new color by mixing two colors make sure you only add as much paint as you did liquid dish soap so your window paint will wash off easily.
Step 4

Stir your window paint with spoon until the paint and liquid soap are evenly mixed.
Step 5

Now using a paint brush apply this great window paint to any glass surface. The best part about this window paint is that it wipes off easily with a paper towel.
