I have seen reinker ornaments before for years but only just now tried it. They look so fab and sparkly and are sooooo easy (a tiny bit messy, though). Kids will love this!! Directions are below the picture...
All you do is take a clear glass ornament that you can get anywhere - it can be any shape - I just used round. Remove the top and add about 20 drops of CLASSIC reinker (Craft ink does not work) in the color of your choice and about 10 drops of water. Turn the ornament until the inside is coated with ink and then let the excess drain out but don't let it sit too long as the ink will dry and you can't do the next step. Next, add a small amount of Dazzling Diamonds, Cosmo or Fine Galaxy glitter and while covering the opening, shake the ornament to distribute the glitter. I used Dazzling Diamonds for all of mine. Keep adding glitter, a little at a time, and shaking until the inside of the ornament is coated with glitter and then let dry (it doesn't take long) and embellish as you like. I just added bows and elastic cord for hangers. The one has a rub-on or you could even use Decor Elements or stencil with craft ink - the possibilities are endless! My ornaments are Real Red, Brilliant Blue and I thought Bravo Burgundy but I may have grabbed Elegant Eggplant by mistake because it looks more purple than maroon - who knows? Anyhoo, try it out and send me a pic of your ornament and I will post it on my blog and send you some blog candy!! TTFN...Michelle
