There are two basic ways to go: Color the model
magic before your craft or wait until after. If you’re going the before route:
·
Use markers. Yes, they are messy. And
yes, they will get all over your child’s hands. But, isn’t a lot of fun worth a
little mess! Smoot out the modeling compound, making a flat pizza dough-like
sheet. Add color with the markers, covering the entire sheet in one shade or make
stripes/blocks of different hues. Flip the “magic” over (use a piece of
cardboard underneath to avoid smearing markers all over your table) and color
the back. Twirl, swirl, blend and mash the colors together.
·
Use non-colorfast tissue paper. Aside
from Model Magic, my second favorite art material is bleeding tissue paper. It
has that “wow” factor when the color comes off and changes whatever is
underneath it a new shade. Wet a dark or bold color of tissue (if it says
color-fast, do not use it). Wrap the wet tissue around a ball of Model Magic,
press down to transfer the color and then remove. As it dries the color will
stick. You can also add a piece of dry tissue, and then place a wet paper towel
on top to soak through.
·
Oil pastels: The oily nature of these
drawing tools makes it easy to spread across the surface. Use it in a similar
way to markers.
·
Food coloring. Work a drop or two of
food coloring in to go from white to bold!
If you want to wait until after the crafting is
over:
·
Again, use markers. This is super simple
and easy to do. Just color on the Model Magic. This works well for adding
facial features, spots or stripes or even drawing letters.
·
Paint the project. Use a thin paintbrush
to add color on top, after the compound is dry, or while it’s still drying.
