Ink Stains

Paper and ink have been compatible materials for centuries. In this video we will explore how two very different inks, alcohol ink and walnut ink, can add color and drama to simple gift tissue. Both of these inks can be purchased from art and craft stores, but they can both be made at home. Inks created from boiling nut husks were some of the earlier inks made. Making your own walnut ink is satisfying and makes an abundance of ink to give away to all of your artist friends. Google and YouTube will lead you to both written and demonstration instructions. Michelle will demonstrate her affordable way to make alcohol inks.
