A simple setup and cleanup checklist
Set out what you need and keep the labels handy.
Keep food products and craft paint separate
Use clean tools and keep ordinary craft or costume paint away from anything meant to be tasted. Read the packaging before opening. If intended use is unclear, choose a product with clear instructions.
Agree on what to use
Check preferences and allergies together and choose the product before setting up. Set out a washable towel and keep paint away from items that cannot be cleaned as directed.
Handle leftovers according to the label
Follow opening and storage directions. Use a fresh applicator when sharing a container and avoid returning used tools to it. Check the label for expiration and disposal instructions.
