Wicked cool things to do with Kool-Aid!

Lipgloss! Blend a package of the drink mix with 3 tablespoons vegetable shortening, then microwave for one minute. Transfer to a 35mm film canister and refrigerate overnight.

Clean rust from concrete. Mix unsweetened lemonade Kool-Aid with hot water. Scrub and the rust stain, should come right out.

Make a non-toxic hair dye that washes out easily with Kool-Aid. Mix two packets of unsweetened Kool-Aid. Add enough water to make a paste. Add a few drops of hair conditioner to make the paste stick to the hair. Put on a pair of gloves and apply the Kool-Aid to your hair. Wrap your head in plastic wrap and wait. The longer you leave the plastic on, the brighter the colour.

Color your paint! Mix any flavor of unsweetened Kool-Aid into water-based latex paint to alter its color. Or mix unsweetened Kool-Aid with water to create your own watercolors, but don't give them to the kids -- Kool-Aid stains can be tough to remove.
