How to do Union Jack face paint

Union Jack face paint: it’s not just for football fans. Whatever else the Jubilee has brought us – hagiographies of the Queen’s dress sense, forced street parties – it has produced an eruption of British flags and bunting on an unprecedented level, and that includes my daughter’s face. All the celebrations can necessitate last-minute face painting.

To the rescue, YouTube and in particular a site called GreatAunt.co.uk. You will need this information over the coming days so watch the video now to be prepared.

It took me about 3 minutes to do this. I used a brush and paint from pots and I was pretty pleased with the result. What do you think?

I’m sharing with Mudpie Fridays for #bloggerclubuk.
