Playdough Making

May 2020

One day I decided to have some fun and make play dough and get a bit messy at home. At the beginning I researched play dough recipes online and found one that I could triple the recipe to make enough play dough to share. It felt really soft, squishy, mushy, damp, slightly smelly and relaxing and I felt like a big kid again! It was really fun and I ended up getting blue and pink dye ALL over my hands, it took a while to scrub this off and clean up my mess but it was worth it…. :-)

This image was entered in the Heaton Normal Intermediate School Art Department Lockdown ‘Bubble Photography Competition’. The Theme was - Tūrangawaewae - Our safe place, the place where we feel we belong.. Students were asked to photograph things that they and their family had been doing in their bubble that helped them feel safe and gave them a sense of belonging.
