I came across this neat idea and had to share. I can't believe I never thought to do this!
Step 1: Take a bunch of celery and cut it about 2-3 inches from the bottom of the celery, leaving the head (which we will use as the stamp.) The higher up you cut the less dense the "petals" will be.
Step 2: Dip your “stamp” in the paint to create your “roses” or other designs. You might need to water the paint just a little to avoid globs on the paper.
Step 3: Apply even pressure as you stamp and there you have it: beauty with celery!
I would probably consider using 1 celery head per color if doing more than one color to avoid mixing the paint colors.
