So, this is an idea I have been playing with in my head for a long time. You know, one of those awesome ideas that you are so excited about but just never do?
I first saw this in one of my favorite books, The Guerilla Art Kit by Keri Smith (Which I will be talking about more later). I saw it today again on pinterest and decided I needed to post about it. Maybe some of you will beat me to it!
TADA! Yes this is real. Here is how you make this amazing MOSS PAINT!
  • A couple handfulls of moss
  • 12 oz of buttermilk (or a can of cheap beer)
  • 1 tsp of sugar
Mix in a blender until it's all liquidy. Then go ahead and paint it on a wall! Moss likes shady, wet areas so make sure you spray it with water every day!
Sounds easy right? And awesome? I'm just wondering where I can find some moss... If you try it let us know how it goes!

    I love this, it is so beautiful! Just think what inspiring message you could send to anyone who sees it, and put a smile on their face. I will definitely have to see about putting this on our building at work. Nikki, I bet your family could help me with this if I get the ok. Thanks Jessi

    Jackie we would love to. You would have to make sure it is in the shade and someone could mist it morning and night.
