Before proceeding to the master class on the manufacture of fillings, we will tell you how to properly paint salt for such hand-made articles.
- So, let's define what colors we need salt and in what quantities.
- Spread the salt on separate plates - each plate will be painted in its color.
- Further we dilute gouache with water, we make such consistency, as for drawing, and in each plate we pour a little paint.
- Thoroughly and evenly mix the salt with the paint.
