Today Im sharing a fun project - how to make your own alcohol markers using Crayolas marker maker refill kit! \r
\r
If youre young, its a good idea to get an adult to help with this project as youll need to use Isopropyl alcohol in a well-ventilated area and may also need help using the art syringe.\r
\r
The kit costs about £8-12 in the UK depending on where you buy it, and comes with enough stuff to make 12 Crayola pens. £1 a pen - not bad! The alcohol isnt too expensive per bottle, and you can probably find the other materials around the house. \r
\r
To make alcohol markers using the kit you will also need:\r
\r
Isopropyl alcohol\r
Small container to mix ink in\r
Tweezers to help push sponge into pen barrel\r
Paint Brush for mixing and testing colours\r
\r
To make alcohol markers using inks you will need:\r
\r
Inks (I used Windsor & Newton inks with good results)\r
An art syringe\r
Water to flush syringe (basically you pump the syringe in the water until the syringe is clean)\r
\r
