An extra DIY video, just for you.
To make alcohol ink you need:
1. A Sharpie or similar alcohol marker
2. Xacto knife
3. 70% rubbing alcohol
4 Small spray bottle
5. plastic container
6. Needle nose pliers
7. regular pliers
8. Plastic gloves if you don’t like stained hands
9. Paper towels to mop up any mess
Fill the spray bottle with the rubbing alcohol and then pour the alcohol from the spray bottle into the plastic container. Using the needle nose pliers, remove the nib from the Sharpie and put into the plastic container. Using both pairs of pliers, ben the Sharpie back and forth until you pull it apart. The marker I had needed to have the end removed. Once you pull the marker apart, remove the long plastic covered tube inside. Using your Xacto knife and needle nose pliers, cut the length of the plastic you removed from the marker. Do this on the front and back. If your container isn’t long enough to hold this piece, cut it in half. Pull the fibrous pieces out of the plastic if you can’t cut it in half and then put all of it into the alcohol. Let this set until the ink has soaked into the alcohol and the fibers are a lighter shade. Once you think the ink is dark enough, pour it into the spray bottle and you are ready to go. If you get the ink on anything, the alcohol will remove it.
To make Dylusions style spray paint you’ll need:
1. small spray bottle
2. two small marbles
3. acrylic craft paint
4. very warm tap water
Put an inch of paint into your spray bottle and then drop in the marbles. Pour the hot water over the paint and close the bottle. Shake really well. If your spray paint is runny, add more paint. If it won’t come out of the sprayer, you may need to put in more water. Make sure before you do add more water, you really shake it well again.
