I love your tutorials! I would use food coloring instead of alcohol inks. Alcohol inks fade over time unless they are protected from the UV light of the sun.
Good to know. I prefer using food coloring but have had so many people ask if alcohol ink will work. It will but for what they cost I'm not certain why people want to waste them. Food colouring is so much more reasonable for cost. Interesting to hear they can fade though!
That is SO COOL! I was given some alcohol inks and had no idea what to make with them so I will def be trying this. I have a few questions 1. Why is your video so quiet? I have hearing issues and have to put your videos on full volume with captions lol 2. Have you tried a wood burner or a hotfix tool for the hole? It's really helpful. Stinky but no shavings to shake out. Do you recommend not doing that? 3. Have you tried uv resin on the oustide top seal to avoid leaking before? Ive tried it on a few of mine and they stop leaking but I'm not sure of the long term with doing that
I'll try to increase the volume, I didn't realize it was a problem until recently. It sounds fine on my side but that doesn't mean it sounds fine to everyone. I'm having issues finding a mic that doesn't pic up my apparently loud breathing lol. I'm on my 4th one and all it still picks up is breathing. Lol. I have actually ordered a burner tool but haven't received it yet. Would be good to do outside. I would be worried about the fumes.. I will definitely make a quick video when I actually receive it. I have definitely used uv resin to seal up the holes. That is what I typically use although I've had a few people ask me for alternative ideas as they are allergic to resin.
I find it lasts much longer if you add some clear glue or vegetable glycerin. Also food coloring seems to work better imo anyway. But like to experiment for the videos.
Do you mean to glue or glycerin or the powder? I put about 1 tablespoon per 1/4 cup of water and depending on the tumbler I use about 10 drops of coloring or more if you want it darker. I use about 10-25ml of mica depending on how much color I want in it. They are fairly forgiving, I don't measure much.
That was incredible to watch... ty
I do this with glycerine 😊it flows better nd slower try it ❤
Thanks for the tip! I will try that out!

Can you use the alcohol ink and mica powder snow globe mixture in a glass can?
Like a canning jar? Should be just fine
Does the mica settle out of the glycerine ?
Yes it does settle out of the water glycerin mixture
Can you mix alcohol ink and food coloring at do this?
I have never tried it but I assume if you can mix the food coloring with the ink and it doesn't separate you should be ok
Does this effect last long?
I find it lasts much longer if you add some clear glue or vegetable glycerin. Also food coloring seems to work better imo anyway. But like to experiment for the videos.
What is the ratio of liquid for the color changing and magic tumblers
