Not So Wordless Wednesday: DIY 4th of July Chalk (with recipe)

Photobucket

Items Needed for DIY Chalk
Plaster of Paris (found at Lowe's)
Water
Food Coloring (preferably gel)
Wax Paper
Plastic Cups
Silicone Mold
Stirring Sticks

Directions
Pour a little Plaster of Paris into a cup and add water. Repeat until you get the desired consistency. The thinner it is the longer it will take to dry out later, but you need to be able to stir in the food coloring. You should aim for the consistency of pudding. Pour it into the mold and then let it sit to dry out. Takes about 1 1/2-2 hours. Pop them out of mold and enjoy your very own homemade chalk.
