How to Mable Paper with Shaving Cream
by Jessie Daye
DIY Marbled Paper with Shaving Cream
What you need
- Shaving Cream
- Food Coloring
- Paper
- Ruler
- Spatula
Directions
- Spray shaving cream in a 9"x13" dish or large enough container to fit your paper sheets. Use a spatula to smooth out the shaving cream.
- Add drops of food coloring all over the shaving cream, about 15 drops of each color. Use your spatula to gently swirl the colors together just a tad. Don't stir it all together - you want streaks of color.
- Place your sheet of paper face down on the shaving cream and use your hand to gently press it onto the color.
- Carefully lift the paper and use a ruler to scrape off the excess shaving cream. Discard the shaving cream. Let the paper dry completely. Once dry, you can use heavy books to flatten the paper if it's not perfectly flat.
