I didn’t have a lot of time this week to devote to a large craft project so I thought I’d show you one of the most astonishingly quick and easy crafts that I have every done. This one came from Darby Smart – Stained Glass Bubble Votives.
This was also really fun to do, ok so a lot of that was from the novelty of it. All you need are a couple of glass votive holders, a couple of different colors of alcohol based ink, some blending solution, paper towels and sponges (if you want to create a more dotted effect.
I decided that I would go more for a drip look after playing with the sponges, I really just couldn’t get the hang of it, and I’m really happy that I did. It took all of 20 minutes to do both votives, much less time to dry them, and the only clean up I did was to wipe the lips a little to make the colors less muddy.
The end result? Ta-da! Pretty cute, huh? And I have plenty of leftover ink to try on a vase or two! Well, that’s all I have for this month, happy crafting!
