How to make it

Safety

Keep shaving cream away from eyes, and buttons away from kids under 3.

1
Mix the paint
Fold the glue into the shaving cream gently. Stir slowly so it stays fluffy.
2
Paint 3 circles
Spoon on 3 circles stacked on the paper: big, medium, small.
3
Shape it
Smooth the edges with the back of the spoon. Keep it thick.
4
Add the face
Press on an orange paper nose and button eyes while it's still wet.
5
Let it dry
Leave it flat overnight. It dries puffy and stays soft to touch.

Edie's tip

Make it right before painting. The foam slowly flattens after about 30 minutes.
