Alcohol Ink and Silver Washers

It is quite fun when you can use things from your local hardware aisle for art projects. These are plain silver washers. We drilled a whole in them and used alcohol ink to dye them to create a pendant or necklace. Once the piece was finished we attached a jump ring for completion.

Is the process messy, yes! Did the kids like doing it, YES! The more they did the more intricate the designs became. I purchased the kit from Hobby Lobby. Have you ever worked with these? If not, make time this year...you will love it! The results are way cool.






Here is an example of how the inks can be used.

Nothing to do with this lesson...I just really like this song about like I like working with Alcohol Inks. Hope you all have a good one! 1969
