Serendipity Crafts Group

Buy the Book and the Woodlands Art League are jointly sponsoring this new community art group. We will meet on the 4th Monday evening of each month at Buy the Book at 6PM to create a different project each time, led by an art league member. 

This August 22nd will be an alcohol ink project on Grafix plastic, a surface with much in common to the more expensive Yupo.

Wear old clothes or bring an apron -and gloves! Alcohol ink will stain the skin on your fingers and your manicurist will stop returning your calls. 

I will bring my supplies and the Grafix, but I recommend the following:

1) A small set of nylon or taklon short handled brushes. (Joann's has a sweet set for $10.99 and is generous with 40-50% off coupons...12 brushes and a plastic storage pouch, Michael's and Hobby Lobby have similar sets and Walmart may also). These brushes can be added to your craft kit for future projects.

2) A bottle of 91-99% isopropol alcohol. We will use this plus a dash of glycerin to make our own blending medium.

3) A mini misting bottle and a small bottle to fill with the blending mix.

4) Paper towels

5) Miscellaneous fun stuff...bring it IF you've got it: your own favorite ink colors, and small cup palette (99 cent type) or a handful of water bottle caps, clear blending pen, aqua brush to fill with medium, inexpensive (dollar store) bath sponge
