Ceramic Tile Craft
I have received some input about this craft. A few people have stated that marker will come off of the tiles. Although ours have faded some over many years I can still see most of the original artwork. Perhaps the tile finish makes a difference or the amount of water the tile is exposed to? A reader suggested using craft paint that you bake on for the tiles.
This super simple craft can be made with children of any age. Very useful as a "hot pad", plant stand or candle holder. Best of all it will be a reminder of the fun time you had making it with your child for years to come. (We have two of these holding a much used coffee maker, going on about 16 years now)
Materials:
6" x 6" ceramic tile.
4 marbles
white glue (elmer's)
optional materials include:
permanent markers in a variety of colors.
Step 1. Cover work area with newspaper.
Step 2. Have your child write their name and date on the back of their tile.
Step 3. Let your child decorate tile with markers if desired.
Step 4. Turn tile over and glue one marble on each corner. (may require some pressure to adhere) Let sit until dry.
That's it! A simple, useful household item that you made together!
