What are you most proud of?

This was a craft I could do with my daughter and every ingredient/material was already in my house. Very economical and green.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't use too much food color and plan on using the paints right away. Because they are plant based, they will ferment after a few days at room temperature.

I would say yes because it is food coloring. I've seen articles about how to remove food coloring stains, but I think it's not easy and not always successful.
