Homeschooling ABCs
I was sold on the first mini class and
started the 26 week course after that! Thanks for showing us how to start
and stay going. We are excited with Homeschooling ABCs and feel
comfortable knowing someone cares about our homeschooling experience being
a success. All the planning is already done for us and we really like the
freebies and weekly schedule that make each lesson personal and fun!
Please tell us this will never end,
LOL, no really I mean it!!! Thanks Homeschooling ABCs!

Inexpensive Oily Soap Paints
Here’s a concoction that feels almost like real oil paints.
Even though the paints are made of soap, they are strictly meant to use in artwork and not to wash with. The powdered tempera may stain porous materials such as clothing and skin.
SUPPLIES:
1 tablespoon powdered tempera paint
1 tablespoon liquid dishwashing soap
DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix powdered tempera paint and liquid dishwashing soap together with a paint brush, toothpick, popsicle stick, etc. Continue mixing until the two ingredients are smooth, with no visible streaking.
2. Just like with oil paints, you can blend the various colors of the soap paints to create new colors or shades.
These inexpensive, homemade soap paints substitute well for oil paints with beginner artists. This gives them the opportunity to get the feel of painting with oils and how to blend these paints, without having to worry about the waste of those expensive little tubes from the art supply store.
