Dew Drops

I saw this technique on YouTube. Many people have done videos on colouring your own dew drops or skittles but the first one I watched was pumpkinman33's version. To make these you will need clear dew drops, a small Ziploc bag, and Adirondack alcohol inks. First you put some dew drops into the bag. The amount I used were ones in my hand. For that amount put 3-4 drops of your alcohol inks, then close the bag and shake. Once dry, you get beautiful coloured embellishments. For the ones shown above I used the ink called wild plum. I use these to accent any project but they look really good for the centers of flowers. To adhere my dew drops, I use glue dots.
