Art Club: Salt dough and Sharpie Doodle Shirts




For our second Art Club we started with making sharpie dyed shirts. This is such a super fun technique! And so great for kids (and adults!) of all ages.


This was a practice/example shirt I made.



Seriously, I could sit around doodling on shirts or my socks or pillowcases or...well, just about anything....all day. Really. Give me a few snacks. Pop in a fun movie like My Big Fat Greek Wedding or, my latest favorite, Austenland. And hand over the sharpie. Yep. I'd be set for a doodling marathon.




You can check out my tutorial for this project here. The only difference is that while some of the kids used cups, others drew free hand. I loved seeing what they came up with!







Next we got busy with salt dough. Oh! This stuff makes me feel a bit nostalgic. My mom made this for us all the time. In fact, I don't think she ever bought store bought play dough. But she was always mixing up a batch of this stuff for my friends and I. 

Have I mentioned how awesome my mom is? Yep. She really is. 





Salt Dough 

1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1/2 water

Mix it all together. Voila! You've got salt dough. Tough stuff, right?

For Art Club I made a giant batch of this stuff. I think I used about 8 cups of flour, 4 cups of salt and 4 cups of water.

I got out a bunch of rubbers stamps, play dough tools, rolling pins, toothpicks and other random things we found around the the house and let the kids go wild with them. 



I lined cookie sheets with wax paper and the kids put their projects on them to dry when they were finished. 



We had a few minutes left at the end so first we played a few drawing games. The blind drawing game is definitely a favorite. 


And then we broke out the pipe cleaners again.


This Art Club thing is so fun!

  2. The global hydrographic survey equipment market was valued at $3.3 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $5.5 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.75% from 2022 to 2031. A hydrographic survey or a bathymetric survey refers to the process of measuring several factors under the surface of the water. The survey can be performed on still water as well as running water. The primary objectives of hydrographic survey equipment are the measurement of tides for sea coast with its scope of application in the construction of sea defense works and harbors. Data can also be used for the establishment of leveling dams for reducing sounding, and for the determination of bed depth. Among types, the unmanned vehicles segment is estimated to account for the largest share in the Hydrographic Survey Equipment Market in 2017. Growth in the unmanned vehicles segment is attributed to the increased demand for unmanned vehicles from the commercial sector, drilling support and pipeline inspectionowing to their application for deep water exploration and production activities, and hydrographic surveys.
