A $5 purchase has sparked a delightful beach trend that's perfect for a fun girls' day out! Get ready to embrace your inner artist and create beautiful memories by the sea.
Kmart, a go-to destination for many, is offering an adorable and practical arts and crafts activity that's taking over social media and Aussie beaches. Their Mini Watercolour Paint Pads are an affordable and portable way to unleash your creativity wherever you are.
Each pad comes with a paintbrush and watercolour paint swatches, making it an all-in-one kit. Simply add water, and you're ready to paint! TikTok creator @Moll_jasmine shared a video of her beach painting session, which quickly went viral. She captioned it, "The cutest beach activity today! Our mini paint pads from Kmart." The flower prints she created were indeed adorable!
But here's where it gets controversial... or at least, a little unexpected. This trend isn't just for the beach! Commenters suggested taking the activity on long-haul flights, among other places. It's a brilliant way to keep yourself entertained and relaxed during travel.
The paint pads come in various themes, from fruits and tropical vacations to sea life, birds, and desserts. Each pad offers 20 unique designs and six watercolour paint swatches, providing plenty of creative options. And at just $5 each, they're an affordable way to indulge your artistic side.
You can find these mini paint pads both in-store and online at Kmart. They've been around for a while, but they've recently gained popularity as a fun beach activity, thanks to the power of TikTok. Kmart also offers a larger A4-sized version for those who prefer a bigger canvas.
If you're looking for alternatives, Amazon Australia has a range of watercolour paint pads in A4 sizes, like the Euyehn Watercolour Paint Pad, which features vacation-style designs and costs $16. Typo also has its own version, the Mini Watercolour Paint Pad 2.0, with jungle and dessert-themed pads for $12.99, available in-store and online.
So, are you ready to embrace this wholesome beach trend? It's a great way to spend quality time with friends or family, creating beautiful art and making lasting memories. And who knows, you might just discover a hidden talent!
