Activity Overview
If you have ever wished that you could create your own unique stickers, then this art activity is for you. Artists of all ages will enjoy mixing these two ingredients together to form a lick and stick substance when dries. This allows you to stick your small art segments and messages just as you would a nostalgic stamp from yesteryear.
Add your own unique flair to just about anything. Create a sticker book of artwork or poetry that is special to you. We stored ours in a small plastic container in the desk so that my daughter could adorn her journal and cards to friends.
