I learnt to "create" this mess from Neil Buchanan of Art Attack. It was extremely easy and quick, creating it hardly took 15mins! I started by firmly taping a plastic sheet on a cereal box. Then I mixed fevicol with coffee powder for the brown one and fevicol + rasna orange flavor powder for the yellow :). Half a cup of colored fevicol is all that this “mess” needs. Then spread the mix on the plastic sheet in shapes that would naturally be created when some liquid is dropped. Place the cup on one end and add spoons or straws for an added messy effect. That is it! Allow it to dry completely (this might take a few days). Once dry, peel it off carefully from the plastic sheet.
When dry, the fevicol turns transparent, giving the mess the color of the powder used. What I intended with the brown one was actually coffee, but it turned out to look like black coffee when dry. Hmmm…I should have mixed a bit of white paint along with the fevicol and coffee powder. The yellow one did come out really well; it looked more original and even had a bubble in it! I couldn’t make this for April 1st though; else it would’ve been a good chance to fool somebody! :)
