What You’ll Do

  1. Set out as many bow tie noodles as you would like to paint.
  2. As you paint the base color, be sure to make sure there is not a glob of it in the crevice. Paint it and set it aside to dry. That won’t take long as the paint absorbs into the noodle and dries fast.
  3. Use different colors to create designs over the base color. You can make dots using the end of your paintbrush.
  4. Set them out to dry. Once dry, you can glue them to hair clips, ribbon and more.
