Painting a FANTASY MAP with RICE AND COFFEE ☕️

- Today I'm painting a fantasy map with rice and coffee! Uh, what? Yeah, you read that right. Let's use some household staples and turn them into art! This is a VERY easy activity, so if you ever want to create but you're short on ideas... let the rice decide for you!
This is inspired by all the viral TikToks, Reels, TH-cam Shorts, and the new Dungeons & Dragons movie! I put my own spin on it, and love how it turned out! I hope you like it too!

A tip for rice: if your rice gets too wet, throw it in a pot of phones to dry it right up! 😂
😂😂
Everybody just saw us laugh out loud at that!
This actually just made me snort laugh 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Haha i just screenshot this and sent to my husband it made me lol that much 😹
If you enjoy dying paper, try black avocado skins! Beautiful purple colour! And if you put a patterned rubber mat on it (like doilies), it will dry lighter in the spots the rubber touched the paper. You can create beautiful papers that way
This was fun to watch, Mira! One of my pandemic projects was a "quick" D&D map that turned into a year-long project. It admittedly is an art project foremost, but it eventually lend to a couple of one shots and a campaign (so far)!
We're totally going to do our own map now! There's lots of spilled coffee everywhere in our workspace so all of our documents already look like antique parchment with muffin crumbs for islands. We think this could be a great rainy day project for anybody, and maybe even the basis for an educational activity! (BTW, one of our team thinks they might just recognize the real life inspiration for that glass house in Victorian Gardens and now they think they're cooler than the rest of us. Don't indulge them.)
Oh hi Blick!
@@mangoowtay Hi there! We always connect with the nicest people in Mira's community!
Spilled....coffee?! Bunch of savages! It's practically sacrilege to waste good coffee!
It's like when Mira mentioned leftover coffee at the beginning...I don't understand this concept! 😂😂
@@Littlewings1211 It's true, we do cry over spilt coffee. We know, the horror!
@@Blick_Art well at least you have that to redeem yourselves, I was starting to worry! 😂
I play D&D but mostly as a DM. I’m making a rice map for an island in the middle of a lake. There are great secrets to be revealed within a cave on said lake-island. I found the experience of making a lap like this that you’ve shared to have some useful tips. Thank you for posting! May all your rolls be 20!
My dnd character is an Eladrin elf warlock whose patron is an Archfey. She was intended to be a ditsy fairy princess but because her party members are a zombie and cleric batman, she’s become Kermit the frog to keep them in check.
that second sentence is so funny😂
I play D&D and a number of other RPGs. I haven't been in a standing campaign in a while, but often run games at gaming conventions and/or play in games with my friends at said conventions! Love the map!
This is like, perfect to do at school or work when you're trying to kill time. You can use paperclips, staples, tacks... really anything and just trace around it with a pen. Cute idea and wish I did this when I was in school.
Omg I seriously love this! I started playing DnD over a year ago and have been wanting to start drawing maps for story lines. Fantastic!
Thank you. Even I notice the cuteness they hold.
I am amazed at how smooth the coffee stained the paper. I usually see splotches where it’s darker in spots. That’s what it was like when I tried it hahahah! Awesome map!
This was so fun!! I write fantasy stories for myself for fun and have been wanting to make maps for them...I'm going to do this to create the maps!
(And as for DnD, I haven't played yet, but I've been wanting to for years)
loved this video Mira!! Please do more random videos like this :)
I've played D&D before, but I don't play now. I was a barbarian, and that's about all I can remember about it lol. That, and my lack of luck made me want to have someone else roll my dice for me!
I don't play DnD but I am creating a bit of a fantasy universe in one of my sketchbooks using my kid and my nephew as my muses. Also I wanted to point out that I think you're supposed to add something to the coffee to make it neutral because the acid will eat away at the paper over time.
I got an idea do a D&D inspired art we’d like to see that of your elf. I think that would be fun to see you do something with DD cause I love DND you love DND so maybe that would be fun to have you do something with that
D&D!!! Don't have a group but alchemists are great! I liked the movie. The map was really cool and would be useful for a campaign
My husband and I were just talking about using rice for making fantasy maps and how we wanted to try it! We've also been wanting to play D&D, but we haven't had the opportunity to yet.
I love to play D&D! Also I'm a changeling lunar sorceress
Now name the map. A lot of fantasy writers use different techniques to create maps. I do a lot of Islands and those Islands are with their borders and with their names inside of it.
I literally said WHAT?!?! because I always wanted to try thiss. thank you so much for the inspirationnn
This looks so cool! I’ve wanted to try it for a while ❤
I used to play Dungeons & Dragons back in the day I was a mage called Landrid..lol…xx loved the map..x
Hi! My friends just finished a 1.5 year campaign and I played a human sorcerer (inspired by Dena’ina Athabaskan culture because diversity in D&D rocks) named Memento Mori. They’re a pirate captain who turns into a skeleton at night because of a botched resurrection, and they joined a rebel crew to take down two evil queens and a whole oppressive magic system. I love D&D! Can’t wait to hear your guys’ characters!
This map came out super cute!
Thats so cool
Im gonna try that myself
This was a fun project. My hubby & son play D&D!
I absolutely love to make fantasy maps. Although I haven't tried using rice before. Will have to try it sometime.
What a fun video! I love the process and the final product.
Love love love the map and the music
This was so cool! Defo would like to try this! My husband and I would really love to play d&d but we don’t know how to play, we have just got a handbook and a starter pack so hopefully we will understand it at some point!
This is so cool! I’ve wanted to do a map like this for a while.
I play as a dragon born Rogue and a half elf Rogue. We love getting together with friends every week to play. 😂 I have a sword that is a water elemental. Hear me out, endless water to drink 😂 we have a dark elf who hates all races, who loves shoots, and is wacky. We have a dragon born who is a derp. He is wearing a party cone hat, with a pet rock under it, in a black suite. His reasoning is business and party opportunities. 😂 there is a high elf who is the smart leader. The three love to pick on each other. I'm just trying to get stuff done 😅 you can imagine how the adventures are going.
My mains are Eris; the cleric fighter; my first female character. Next is Briask; the awakened Ragdoll cat rogue. Next is Tascus, the rogue fighter tabaxi. Finally, there is Bael, the gunslinger fighter tabaxi. As a dungeon master; I have created hundreds of NPCs and monsters for my on-going campaign and whew; what an experience.
I also made a fantasy map a few months ago. I did it when the InkTober52 prompt was mighty and I did a simpler map that represented different parts of creativity. I think I wanna try making another fantasy map now
I am a DM/GM. I’ve made several worlds and own many TTRPGs and am working on my own TTRPG right now! I’m a forever GM so have not gotten to actually be a player for over a decade. The rice method works well. I used it for a world a couple of years ago. I think doing it in pencil and adjusting it then inking is my preference.
Maybe make an artwork of your DnD character.
Also excellent thumbnail for this video.
I haven't played in a long while, but my lasr character was a changeling snd the prior was Tobaxi. I'm too sleepy to remember other details.
I love your imagination!!!
Love the way it turned out!!❤❤❤
We used to use coffee or strong tea when we were kids to age paper and make treasure maps for each other.
I’m so glad I found your channel! I look forward to your videos!❤️
My husband and I paly D&D every other weekend with our friend group, and have been meeting up for about three years now. My character's name is Tip and she is classed as a fighter....and the unofficial baby sitter of the group. Nine times out of ten she is running after our goose kinku and our golden grung. Poor thing has become a very stressed out tank
My son did this exact art project for his homeschool curriculum. We use the good in the beautiful homeschool and this is one of their projects.
Myra I think this is absolutely wonderful 👍😊😊😊
I've not got to play D&D in a long time I love playing elves play the Sprite which was probably my favorite
That looks like so much fun! I think I’ll do one!!
Amazing!!! And WOW your hair looks gorgeous ❤
I LOVE THIS!!!!! As a kid we aged paper with coffee like this to make “old letters” but I’ve never heard of a rice map! I need to do it! How fun and such a mystery what the outcome will be! It came out amazing.
This is so cool!
This video makes me want to create a fantasy map asap - it looks so fun! 🥰
I enjoy painting landscapes, nature scenes and birds (especially macaws) in watercolour or acrylics. But I often dabble in other things as well 😅 this, however, looks like a cool idea to try some day!
You can use tea bags after you make a cup of tea to antique your paper
What a lovely map! I play Dnd weakly and though one campaign is on hold, we are almost finished with another one. In my first game I am a human Monk and in the second almost finished one, I am a half-elf Arcane Trickster/Bard 😊Might try this for the next campaign😉
I play 2 characters, as one campaign has been on hold for a bit. Longest running character is my forest druid half-elf call Merrial; and my current character is a halfling barbarian named Andry. Keep up the amazing work, I might have to try this. 😉
I would love to see you try gel printing! It looks so fun and satisfying!
Mira I think that it’s awesome that you’re making art using mediums which you don’t usually use for creating artwork.
I haven't played DnD in a long time, but I usually play Warforged characters because I love robots :D
I’m dying to get into D&D! So hard to find a group tho. I love that you play. The map is beautiful.
I'd love to see more fantasy art!
Bit late to the party, but I recently started playing D&D. My characters name is Lacey and she's an always positiv Forrest gnome druid.
I don’t do dnd but, I am in a Christain based role playing group. It is fun. My character is a class rouge ninja with ice powers
Fun! I've drawn maps since I was a kid =)
I've never gotten a chance to play DnD, but I would love to someday =)
I kind of play D&D.
I say "kind of", because none of my campaigns have worked so far.
I have a bunch of characters, but my favorite is Othilea Bhe-Djean, my level 1 Half-Elf Cleric I played in a homebrew game I DMed for my friends. (they had no healer and were very chaotic. I wanted the campaign to last, so I made her).
She is a very shy person, and I simply loved her interactions with one of the party's bards (there were 2).
Sadly, one of the party members moved away (and then I broke up with the player of the afformentioned bard), so the campaign died...
What a great technique to get random looking maps
I've been wanting to try this and now I see that you taught me 8 months ago how to do this. I thought I just recently heard about the rice thing. I guess it's been percolating for awhile
I don't have coffee but I have dried beans, black beans and pinto beans.
Lol right after you poured the rice the first time, I IMMEDIATELY thought "uh... that's just a loose representation of Earth >.> LOL!
I'm only about 2 minutes in, tops so although I know this will turn out great, because it's yours Mira, I don't yet have any details to reference to make my point. ❤
fun idea
What a fun way to do random maps=3 Love the end result=)
Yes I would love weird things this was a weird thing in it turned out great 😃😃😃
I have played D&D In the past, (many years ago)… My husband loves it… but he doesn’t have the time to devote to it, like he used to…
ANyway, your map is really cool!
Mira, did you just apologise to the rice??!? 😂😂
This is such a cool idea to get the random edges to the map. I really struggle to make stuff look random. Oooh! This would be really cool to make a pirate treasure map for the kiddos when they get bigger, for like easter egg/scavenger hunts. You could crumple it up and singe the edges to make it look old.
Rice is the glitter of the culinary world-
Mira that map is gorgeous! I love how it came out! Can you tell me what pens in what sizes you used. I am looking for some fine liners black pens. Do you have particular ones you think are really good? I love what you included in the map. It looked very much like a D&D map. I love watching your videos because you always do different things and it's never boring. I also love your happy disposition, you always make me smile! God bless and keep you and all your loved ones. Have a great week!
This reminds me of the one time I thought making rainbow 🌈 rice for my now older girls would be a great idea. That rice haunted me for weeks 😅.
Looks really cool though! Man, people are so creative 😂
It is reverse colouring but with rice. Same kind of concept though and I bet you could create maps with those books too.
If you say D&D three times in a row, you will be sucked into to an art collab with Jazza, who clearly is a HUGE fan. 😂
You should use your map in your D and D game :)
wonderful sharing
so Cool😄
This reminds me of the random rubberband idea I saw on Pinterest! Now I want to try both of these!
What is the rubberband idea? You got me curious.
@@Canadaindy152 you drop rubber bands onto a piece of paper and trace the shapes they leave
I used to play DND before I had kids! Hi I'm new here! I love all your videos and we've been watching them before bed because they relax my 2 year old, she asks for "mommy painting show". I do a lot of watercolor, journaling and designing tattoos. I work in a quilt shop so I'm an adivid quilter and fabric hoarder. I. So happy to be apart of your art family, you seem like such a kindred spirit. Back to answering the question of the day... I played a cleric dwarf named Freona she was incredible. She had fire red hair, thick round glasses that made her green eyes look huge, and covered in freckles. By the end of our campaign she was skilled in axe throwing but I also obtained a hammer like Thors that would come back when summoned. Ugh she was the best. She was also obsessed with my husband's character Butterlegs haha. Thank you for helping me remember that wonderful time in my life! It wasn't that long ago I'm only 26 but still! And thank you for spreading positivity in this world. You're an inspiration and I can't wait to see what you create next! Sorry this was long! I meant every word ❤
My husband and I used to play DND as well...now our boys are 11 and 9 so we started them on DND with us. It's so fun to get their imaginations going (although most monsters get killed by poop or farts lol).
Can you create characters and creatures based of your map?
Super cool! Didn't you make a map years ago as a sketch book idea or something? I remember thinking it was such a great idea! Hope all is well! ❤
I am an elf in disguise as a human with dragonhunters trying to save them and preventing other hunters to kill them
In dnd
More drawing and painting ideas videos please!!!!!!!???????!
Another idea is to rip up some tissue paper in bigger pieces to add some variety and make it less "islandy"
I play D&D! My character is a Dragonborn sorcerer named Saphrine :)
Hi Dutch person here. Love the map, but how do people live there without any fresh water. Am missing rivers, ditches, canals, etc.
I thought the same thing.
What kind of paper did you use, I’ve been wanting to make one of these but I couldn’t figure which kind of paper brand
Where do you get you water color paper block?
fantastic thumbnail
Forgotten forest?? how did you remember and draw it then :))
I play DND to! My carchter is a tiefling
I'm a tiefling ranger who has a pet dragon😊
If you want to give it more of an antique look, just tear the edges a bit, make it as rigid as possible, don’t keep it smooth. Thank me later 😂
What type of paper
I'm DMing my first game and we are doing this on 10 in * 16 in Canvas to make a massive map
I'm excited to try this.
edit 10 in not 8 in
Just starting to get into d&d my character is a gnome wizard named fapplestamp
this reminds me of something I saw years ago, but you use dice instead
Whaaaaat
@@MiraByler I don't remember where I saw it, just that it was pre-tiktok 😅 sorry
First! Who else loves Mira????????
👇
EARLY SQUAD WATCH PARTY!!
