Relive your childhood with some jumbo sized chalk!
Supplies
For the mold:
Toilet paper roll
Parchment paper
Tape
Scissors
For the chalk:
Cornstarch
Water
Dye
Instructions
Cut toilet paper roll and tape it to the desired size of your chalk.
Line the sides and bottom of the toilet paper roll with parchment paper and seal it with tape.
Mix equal parts cornstarch and water together or to a thick consistency. Add drops of food coloring for color. (If using natural dyes, the natural dye is quite watery so substitute the water for the dye)
Fill the molds with this mixture
Let dry 12 hours or until solid
Unwrap from the molds.
Use to your heart’s desire! Cleans really easily with a wet paper towel.
Wow, this jumbo chalk project brings back so many fun childhood memories! I love how simple and customizable it is, creating a great inexpensive activity. I reckon the vibrant colors would inspire some seriously awesome sidewalk art. Have y’all experienced this process of bringing old memories a new form?
