Celebrate the snowy winter season with coffee filter snowflakes, decorated with Natural Earth Paint!

Supplies

Coffee filters
Scissors
Natural Earth Paint

Creating Snowflakes

Step 1: Fold your coffee filter in half. Continue to fold it into a triangle form.

Step 2: Cut your snowflake. Geometric shapes work best for cutting out a snowflake. I like to do half circles and triangles.

Step 3: Unfold your coffee filter to see what magical snowflake you made!

Mixing your Natural Earth Paints

Step 4: Scoop the Natural Earth Paint into the mixing container. Add the same amount of scoops of water to the paint so that it has 1:1 ratio paint and water.

Stir it up and you’re ready to paint!

Painting Your Snowflakes

Step 5: Paint your snowflake with your Natural Earth Paint. The possibilities of what you can paint are endless!

Ta-da! Your beautiful snowflake is done; our favorite place to put the snowflakes is in the window so the light can shine through them.

Easy as pie

I applied this with a cheap 3 inch hardware store brush and minimal preparation on 3 different surfaces: oak living room floor, cherry kitchen floor, and cedar bathroom wall. Outstanding small and fast dry time. Very forgiving and easy to use. The kitchen is showing some wear after 6 months because we cook 3+ meals per day and beat the heck out of it with traffic and water. It would probably last forever in your kitchen if you just nuke up GMO microwave meals on disposable paper plates. But we cook cook cook and wash wash wash, so it will be an honor to refinish again. Living room floor and bathroom wall show no signs of wear. God bless America and everyone in it. This country is awesome.

Great varnish

I am extremely pleased with this varnish. I used it on a set of wood panel paintings and love the results. I am allergic to traditional varnishes and had zero reaction to this.
Will buy again!

It's an amazing product!

I purchased Burnt Sienna and Gold Mica to paint on fabric. It's amazing! The colors are true to pictures and are permanent (I washed my fabric swatches)! A huge plus - these are not toxic! I'll be buying all of them! Please don't discontinue them ever.

flintlock stocks

i build flintlocks, i tried some natural varnish over the top of my wood finish i put on a rifle. it works absolutely great! it goes on like water and dries fast and is hard and durable. i have put in on several rifles now and love it! thanks for a great product that is natural,,,,,,,,,,,,

Gorgeous Colors, Creamy Texture, & The First Truly Non Toxic Acrylics

I could not be happier with the absolutely beautiful range of colors in this set. Each color is rich and vibrant and the "vibe" of the paint is lovely! These paints are so much better than anything else out there because they are made without harmful ingredients such as formaldehyde and heavy metals. Before I found these Natural Earth acylics I was experiencing terrible headaches from my standard store-bought brands (even though they say on the bottle they are non-toxic). I have been having such fun playing with tones by adding more or less white to the colors. So incredibly grateful for all the work that has gone into making these paints available. Love painting with these! Oh and I also got the mica paints (gold, silver, & copper) and the shimmer is perfection!

Non- Toxic Medium That Won't Give You The Glue Headaches!

I am over the moon happy about this product! Such an awesome way to glue down my collage papers without having to have that awful glue smell or the headaches that go with it! Love the creamy smooth texture and how clean and clear it dries. GREAT PRODUCT... I highly recommend it!!!
