Look at the Old Vs. New pictures and you can see how the designers & crew opened up a wall from the kitchen to the family room. The old sliding glass door in the kitchen was replaced with a beautiful window with a window seat, thus allowing all the beauty of nature with none of the foot traffic. And extra storage to boot!

Check out the glass-front cabinets. These are only lightly frosted, but still obscure the view of the contents and enhance the contemporary feel of the space! Maybe most memorable from this kitchen remodel is the granite on the island – it is ALL ONE PIECE! The crew that brought it in had to carry it up an entire staircase and down a hallway to get it safely into position atop the stunning island.

4 tbsp baking soda

2 tbsp white vinegar

1/2 tsp light corn syrup

2 tbsp corn starch

Food coloring (liquid or gels)

container to keep your paints in –mini muffin tin, ice-cube tray, small plasticcups, plastic egg carton etc.

Mix your baking soda and vinegar together (hello science experiment) and waitfor the fizzing to stop. It's handy if you mix in a container that has a spout(I used a 2c measuring cup).

Add your corn syrup and corn starch, and mix well until the corn starch hasdissolved.

Pour into your containers. A double batch will make enough to halfway fill all12 compartments of a mini muffin tin.

Now, get out your colors and have some fun! Use toothpicks and popsicle sticks for adding your colors, and stir for about a minute to make sure the color is mixed in well.

If you're using liquid colors, you may have to add about 6 drops to get the intense color that you 're looking for. Add a pinch of extra corn starch to compensate for the extra liquid.

Now the hard part: you have to let your paints "set up" and dry which apparently could take 1-2 days. Once they're hard, simply grab a paint brush and some water and get painting!! The paints glide on smoothly, the colors look super, and they're nicer than any of the kiddy watercolor paints you can buy. They're a little chalky when they dry, but not nearly as chalky as the dollar store paints, and so much cheaper than the art store brands.
