Mash it !
Potato Masher
Prints!
I have done kitchen utensil painting before but never have they turned out so cute! I think what made the difference is that my son helps me mash foods and knows to go straight up and down which is very important for this project! This would make awesome home made wrapping paper too… possibly for Father’s Day.
- Gather your materials. You will need some construction paper, a dish, a potato masher, and paint.
- Pour your paint in your dish
- Dip your masher in
- Print!
- Keep going with different colors- we made 3 sheets of prints.
* If you are going to make wrapping paper you can use old holiday wrapping paper, just print on the underside.

Awesome! It looks neat, kind of like fireworks!
Fun! I would cut them out and make a collage of sorts too… Hmm, now you've got me thinking…
I think they do too Bobbi!
Jessica I cant' wait to see how this evolves for you- I always love what you come up with!
I mentioned your blog and linked on my awards post. I highlighted new blogs I have discovered and really liked.
Hmmm! I don't think I have a hand masher in my kitchen. I'm sure that there is something else that we could experiment with in there, though. That turns out neat.

We're going to have to do this one too! Thanks.
Oh, this is so cute!!! I could TOTALLY see this framed and up on the wall in our playroom!!!!
did you know I have looked high and low for a potato masher around here (vista,ca) and can't find one that doesn't cost a fortune? My Mother in law whom we live with doesn't own one….I guess I will have to keep hunting!
We are so doing this today. I cannot remember when I last used my masher in the kitchen so I guess we are now going to break it out for our art!
We just got a potato masher too! We are going to do this one today! I like that its simple!
