Potato stamping is a clever technique used to create the leaves in this beautiful nursery mural. Here's instructions on how to create your own potato stamps.
You'll need:
- Small sharp knife
- Firm, fresh potatoes
- Paint
- Paint brush or sponge
- Mixing tray
- Paper towel
- Felt tip pen
- Paper
Directions:
- Assemble your materials and prepare a work surface.
- Cut a potato in half and leave on paper towel to dry.
- Draw your leaf design directly onto your potato with a felt tip pen.
- Cut around the surface of your design with a small knife.
- Turn your potato on its side and carefully cut away the edges of the potato to reveal your raised design.
- Mix your paint (a thick consistency will work best)
- Use your paint brush or sponge to over the surface of your potato with paint.
- Test your design by applying the potato stamp to paper. This will ensure you have the correct amount of paint applied before using it on your wall.
- Stamp the design onto your mural.
Note: Potato stamps will stay fresh for two days when kept in the refrigerator submerged in water.
