Party: For Halloween, decorate with chicory!
Published on 21 October 2016
Chicory, a 100% natural paint.
If chicory is delicious as a hot drink or culinary aid, it’s also a real trick when it comes to making paint. Simply apply Liquid Chicory to a surface (sheet, cardboard, furniture, etc.), preferably with a brush, to color it or draw on it in orange-brown.
You can also use Chicory seeds, which, when diluted in water, will give the same result. If, a few years ago, this method was used by women on their legs to create a “bronzed” effect, today it’s perfectly suited to a decoration that’s darker or lighter, depending on the quantity of water used. Ideal for painting pumpkins, cockroaches, lions and Indians.
Practical, this 100% natural Halloween decoration cleans up with water and dries quickly!
Use chicory grains or powder for an original and scary effect.
To add a few decorations to your Halloween painting in a quick and easy way, you can use chicory grains or Soluble Chicory. Using glue, chicory seeds can be used to create monstrous spiders or other fantastically horrifying ideas!
With glue, stencils and Soluble Chicory, it’s easy to decorate your paints or make a quick and original Halloween decoration. The powder gives a sandy effect. For homemade stencils, simply print out a coloring page and cut out the inside, keeping the outlines. You can also put a little glue on the coloring and pour a little chicory powder directly over it to fill in the desired area.
