If you would like shapes on your painting, we used one sheet of vinyl. Turn it over and let the kids draw their favorite shapes. Cut out the shapes and then stick them onto the canvas.

Then its time to add the paint to the guns.

There are a few different ways to do this. We added the paint straight to the water gun and then added water and shook it up. You can also add the paint and water to plastic bag and then cut the corner and fill the gun that way.

Either way, try and eyeball one-third paint to two-third water.

TIP: In terms of setup, I recommend an outdoor easel. We have instructions on how to make an outdoor easel  on the fence, or if you have an indoor easel, simply place a painting tarp down and bring it on out

Do not have an easel? That’s fine too. Use a thumb tack and pin your canvas or poster board it to a tree. 

Once the paint has dried, then remove the stickers and if you opt for having the stickers on your picture, then let the paint dry and then peel the stickers off.
