Visual poetry from the Lewis Carroll picture book - 1899

Marbling with shaving cream

 Adding drops of color 

Gently swirling

                                                   Pressing  paper on to swirled color

                                         Peeling paper off, this is where it gets globby but keep going

                                                    Scraping excess shaving cream off of paper

                                                                               MAGIC!

Printing is big at beehive. 

Marbling is also. 

This is a combination of both. Colorful, magical AND it smells good. 

WE could have printed all day.
We used photograph paper for a smooth glossy surface and finish.
Liquid water colors, shaving cream, droppers, scrapers and paper - you will need a stack!
