Not sure what category this may fall under, because ink spritzers can be used in a variety of ways. Has anyone made their own? To buy just one premade color is kind of spendy, and the project I would like to attempt has up to six different colors.
Any links or tips to share?
I found this link: DIY Ink Spritzers
Not sure how good they would actually be though. |

I have been making my own mists for a while in mini mister bottles as I need them but I recently bought some decently sized spray bottles from e-bay and have been making my own just using paint, water and sometimes pearlex powder. I am more than happy with the results and it is so much cheaper than buying plus you get the exact colour you want. The only thing I have found to be an issue is the mist is not as fine as some of the bought brands or what I got from the mini misters, so I would say that is from the bottles.

I used created some with my Design Memory Craft® Gelatos® last night and it turned out perfect! I used the metallic mint color and it dried with a shimmer finish = beautiful!! Here's a YouTube tutorial on it - I am embedding below (it starts on frame time 00:53). <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/a4T7GdHSqX8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> If the video doesn't show, here's the link: Techniques with Gelatos by Tiffany Johnson Hope that helps! |

CTMH has spray pens you can purchase to make your own mists. They are cheap and really great for this.

I was able to get some 2 oz fingertip spray bottles from Wallyworld (in the travel size section), acrylic paints and rubbing alcohol, and they seem to work fine. I just need to play around and experiment with them and some different size salts.
Thank you everyone.
