Q: Are there any tips for painting pumpkins?
A: Yes, here are a few tips:

• Water-based products work best on porous surfaces.

• Allow a little extra drying time for the paint to adhere properly.
• We recommend displaying your painted pumpkins indoors to protect them from the elements.

Q: Can I eat pumpkins that have been decorated with Crayola products?

Crayola® Washable Window Markers are designed specifically for window decorating. Learn more here.

If you're unable to locate the Window Markers, Crayola Washable Paint can be a fun alternative.

Pro Tips for Washable Paint:

• For the perfect mixture, add equal parts Crayola Washable Paint and dish soap.
• Add a pinch of flour to make the paint thicker.
• Don't forget to protect the area under your window by laying down an old T-shirt.
• Painting can be done on the inside or the outside of your window.
• Because soap is used in the paint, your designs will wipe off windows with a wet paper towel. You can follow up with window cleaner for extra shine.

Have questions about your Washable Paint Pour Art Set? We have the answers!

For Best Results:

Pro Tips:

• Use the tray handles to tilt and turn the canvas in any direction.
• When the picture is complete, use the handles & tray to carry wet canvas to your drying area.
• Use 3 to 4 colors for the most interesting results; colors will mix and blend to create unexpected new shades.

Make sure you have these items before starting your project (not included in your set):

• Water
• Paper Cups
• ½ Tablespoon

Our experts have a few tips to help your creativity bloom with the Crayola Paper Flower Science Kit. 

For Best Results:

• Protect clothing & work surface before starting.
• Wipe water and ink spills immediately.

Cleaning Tips:

• Rinse and dry all pots, covers, funnels and watering can.
• Recap ink bottles and markers.
• Wipe away any spills from work surfaces.

Looking for refills?

• Need another bouquet? White coffee filters – they are the perfect alternative to paper petals because they mimic the wicking process of the ink into the paper.
• Have left over ink? To make your creativity bloom again, rinse the used cores and tips under running water to clean up as much of the ink as possible. Just be sure to wipe up any ink right away and let the cores and tips dry thoroughly. We’ve found this craft hack works best when the ink is fresh and hasn’t had too much time to set.

Have questions about your Color Wonder Magic Light Brush? We have the answers!

For Best Results:

• Always protect your work surface!

• If your set has a paint pot strip, it must be snapped into the base until it clicks for the Magic Light Brush to operate. 

• Turn the power switch to the "on" position. – The unit is "on" when the switch is under the l. The O indicates "off".

• If your set has a paint pot strip, check to ensure the brush tip is tightened. To activate the light brush, hold the brush tip over a single paint pot. Watch the bristles turn the color of the paint inside. Dip the bristles into the gel paints and start painting on the Color Wonder Paper (a thin layer of paint works best). The brush tip will stay illuminated for approximately 10 seconds while it goes from paint to paper.

• If your set has paint pads,the handle will light up and cycle through all the colors. When that is done, press the bristles in the middle of the paint pad for a few seconds.The handle will temporarily light up the color of the paint. Brush the bristles against the paint pad several times. An invisible layer of paint will stick to the bristles. Brush onto Color Wonder Paper and watch the colors magically appear! 

• Between each color change, wipe the bristles with a dry paper towel.

• When creative time is done, be sure to close the paint pot strip covers to prevent the paint from drying out.

• If your set has paint pads, the cover should be placed on to protect the paint pads. Since the paint pads will not dry out, the cover does not need to be airtight and replacing the paint pads is not necessary. The paint pads are securely sealed in the unit during the manufacturing process and not removable, so we do not recommend attempting to remove them. 
  

Battery Savers:

• To help preserve battery life, the Magic Light Brush will automatically turn off after 5 minutes if unused.
• To reactivate, push power switch to "off" and then back "on". Turn the power switch off and then on.
