Okay folks, here is the skinny....

Have you ever wanted to make your own homemade alcohol inks????....

We found a recipe on Youtube....

Here it goes.....

You will need:

1 bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol
1 bottle of liquid Rit Fabric Dye (color of your choice)
1 bottle (travel bottle from Walgreen's???) for the liquids

Pour 1/2 cup of 91% isopropyl alcohol into travel bottle
Add 2 tsp of Rit Dye color into bottle

That's it!

The only negative I have heard so far is that it produces more tint than color...But, one crafter recommended a textile dye instead....I researching on the textile dye....I will let you folks know what I find out...
