Ink Mixing Set | essential tools to make concocting colours easier

To be honest this really does look like the most boring item in my store, but, wait! These mixing balls are SO USEFUL!

There are 20 in a packet, and I add them to sprays, daubers, bottles and waterbrushes that contain pigments that need a little extra power to get activated. Add a mixing ball or two and they act like internal swizzle sticks.

• Packet contains 20 x 0.5mm balls
• rust proof, stainless steel

The Treasure Measure is a deceptively handy little tool! You can precisely measure pigments and art ingredients for your creative joy.

• 3 gram and 1 gram measure labelled (cutely!)
• easy to clean
• easy to handle size
• Two Treasure Measures are in this set

This is part of the new Fairy Dust pigment collection!

These Funnels are handy little tools for filling and refilling creative tools!
Set of three funnels in Powder pink, Bali Blue and Clear.

To make your own ink you need:

• Pigment Powder; such as WMC Neons or Fairy Dust.
• Gum Arabic ; this is what will make the pigment 'stick' to the paper.
• Water; Distilled water ( the type you put in an iron) is chemical free

The process is simple:

1. I use the Treasure Measure to add equal amounts of Gum Arabic Powder and Pigment to the bottle.
2. I add water to the half way mark
3. shake to mix
4. test on paper and add more pigment if you want a stronger colour, or more water if you want the mix lighter!

Ways to use your new Ink:

• Make your own Mermaid Markers by filling InkBrushes!
• Add to PinPoint pens to make a fine pen!
• add to Butterfly Bottles  to add drips and splashes!
• Add to Mister Bottle to make a spray - you may need to dilute your mix so it doesn't clog the pump.
• Add to Finetip bottle to make scratchy line
• Use with a Glass dip pen
• Try in the INKredible fountain pen or FUNtain pens
• Create a palette with the Honeycomb Ink Wells!

Optional extras:

• add a tiny drop of clove oil to your mix as an anti moulding agent
• add a Mixing ball to make it easier to agitate the ink

These art-supply friendly stickers can be used to create swatch labels to place on your favourite tools!

• Simply paint a swatch and add the name if needed.
• Once dry, peel and position the sticker!
• This special paper allows you to add a swatch of colour to your supplies, and the shapes of each one allow for flexibility and fun!
  • 5 designs to suit all sorts of supplies
  • 3 sheets of each design
