You brilliant woman! Thank you for sharing! Xx
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!! I had heard this and made some long ago, but hadn't written down what I did so this is perfect!!!! It works so great and I definitely can't afford the more expensive one :) I also had these other little plastic bottles with those needle nose things...clearly I'm not versed in it😳😊 but I mix this in the largest of those and it works great. But I'm SO thankful for this ratio again!! Thank you!!!
You are so welcome. Glad this was a helpful video for you as you continue working with Alcohol Inks. :)
Wow, one always loves to save money, thanks for sharing

Thank you for the "recipe"! Will save tons of money for sure!
You are so welcome!
Cool, I'm gonna try this! Thanks!
Have fun!
Ran across a 2 yr old video but deserves my subscription. Thanks for the recipe. I've never seen vegetable glycerin in any store though.
Hello Sheila, I found the glycerin at my local pharmacy store. I believe you can purchase it online, such as Amazon. Have fun! :)
Great tip! I just went to buy my first alcohol ink supplies and something made me check TH-cam for how to make them myself. This video and others show me how! Can’t wait to make my own inks and blending solution.
How exciting to hear that you are launching out with using Alcohol Ink! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Thanks for viewing my video(s). Have a good day. Susie
@@SusieShanlian Thank you!
Thank you for sharing!!
You are so welcome!
Wow!!! Thank you so much!!!
Oh, you are so very welcome! Thanks for viewing the video. :)
So very helpful!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for sharing..this formula does act like the prepared ones..
Carolyn, yes, this formula works well. Some prefer to purchase and use the real Alcohol Blending Solution. However, this formula is a simply an inexpensive option for those who are considering their budget. :) Thanks for viewing the video.
not sure if you guys cares but if you are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all of the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been streaming with my brother for the last few weeks xD
@Augustine Jay Definitely, have been watching on instaflixxer for years myself =)
thank you 🙂
You are very welcome. Have a good day. Susie
Also works good with fine glitter and mica powder.
Good to know...thank you!
Awwww thank you. I thank you and so does my wallet
You are very welcome!
Very helpful. Tysm
My pleasure 😊
Thanks very much for the tip,now i just have to find somewhere that sells rubbing alcahol cheap here in N.Z!
Hello, I did a little searching and found this link which might provide you with some locations to purchase Isopropyl Alcohol in New Zealand. www.finder.com/nz/buy-rubbing-alcohol-online
Thank you so much.
Stay safe and blessed AMEEN
Always welcome! Susie
GOD BLESS YOU!!!!
Thank you, you too!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Thank you.
I'll try it after I finish using up all my covid scare hand sanitizer both directly out of the bottle and watered down with isopropyl.
Interesting! Never thought about using hand sanitizer for anything other than it intended use. :)
I love your presentation and especially helping us all save money. Then we can buy more ink. I have one question though what aisle is the vegetable glycerin on? I don’t think I’ve even seen it before but then I’ve never been looking for it thank you for your great video
When I went to the pharmacy, I had to ask for help locating the glycerin. I hope you don't have problems locating it. :) Glad you liked the video.
Suggestion: if you shop on line i.e., @ your grocery store. You can search where products are located in that store. The search will tell you where in this case the vegetable glycerin is located. Now you can order it or know in the store where to go get it. Happy shopping.
I found it in the skin care section at walgreens. In addition to using it for this, you can also use it to take off your makeup, wash your face, throw it in lotion, it's very good for your skin extremely softening.
Hm... I have just watched the Tim Holtz videos on these inks and mediums and stuff. He said that the blending solution is literally what is in the alcohol inks, minus pigment. And that it contains resin that makes it all shinier. That resin should also bind alloy in the image, so it won't smudge. Does this also lock in the alloy?
I don't think this solution would lock the alloy...but I do use it often. :)
Thank you for this information. I will definitely try it. I have a question though, I have some Rangers Tim Holts alcohol ink that I have not used in a few years. It seems to have dried up. Can I use a little of this solution to rehydrate the alcohol ink?
Adding alcohol will always loosen it up ! Also when my bottles are getting g low ? I just add more alcohol to them ! ✌🏽
That comment was for Linda McDermott!
Good Question! I've never tried to rehydrate the bottles, but give it a try with alcohol.
The vegetable glycerin can be found in most craft stores on the aisle selling soap-making supplies.
Thank you, Amy, for this tip. I was not aware...this will be helpful for others, as well. Have a good day. Susie
Can you add it to white blanco blanco mixatives without clumping?
I'm not sure about this; I haven't tried it. Perhaps you could try a small amount for an experiment. Keep me posted. Thanks.
how i make alcohal ink for inkjet printer
Thx for sharing does it work the same if we mix vegetable glycerin with 90% IPA
Hello, I don't think there would be much difference, but you could give it a try and see what you like. Thank you for viewing my videos. - Susie
@@SusieShanlian sure u r welcome n thx for your response ❤️😍
Does this work in copics when you make custom colors w refills?
I've never tried this, but I don't believe it would work...perhaps you could try it in one of your copic markers/refills. Would love to hear about the results. Thanks for watching the video! Susie
Hello 👋 I just came across your channel, does it have to be Vegetable Clycerin? Thank you.
Hello! Personally, I've only purchased and used Vegetable Glycerin. If you locate another type of Glycerin, perhaps you could give it a try and see if you are happy with the results. I imagine it would work, but not sure. Have a good day!
Susie
2 ounces 91% rubbing alcohol + 3 drops vegetable glycerine
Thank you!
Does it have to be 91% alcohol?
I have an empty bottle with a sprayer, will that bottle work?
I would think so.
Can I use ethalon alcohol in an isopropyl place?
I'm not sure about this. I've only used Isopropyl. Sorry to not be much help...perhaps you could do a bit of research on the matter. Thanks for viewing my video. Have a good day. Susie
Is there any significant difference between using 91% rubbing alcohol to 99% when making your own Blending Solution?
I'm not really sure. I wouldn't think there would be that much of a difference, but you could test it out and see which you prefer. Have a good day and thanks for viewing my videos. - Susie
can we use ethyl alcohol? thank you
Never tried it. I've only heard to use Isyoprol (Rubbing) Alcohol
thnx but cn we use it with alchol ink in resin
I'm not sure...never tried it with resin. :)
Did the blending solution work for you in the resin?
hi susie, I have a few questions.
I usually get bottles in litre. So if 1L =33.8 ounce , does it mean I add vegetable glycerin according to the proportion: 3 drops for 1 ounce? Thanks l!
I understood it to be add 3 drops of vegetable to 2 ounces of alcohol to make the blending solution.
@@kathyd9324 may i ask if I can't source vegetable glycerine, can I use glycerin for skin ?
@@mick7827 I don't think they are similar, vegetable glycerin is usually found with baking items.
I appreciate Kathy D responding to your questions and she is correct. Let me know if you tried to make some of the blending solution with the supplies you have. Susie
Can i use coconut oil instead vegetable glycerin ?
I've never tried using coconut oil, but give it a try and see if you like it. I believe the glycerin is your best option. Thanks for your comment. Susie
hi susie, I tried 91% but there are some residues and water bubbles compared to 99%. However, in my city, 99% is at least 2 times more expensive and I have to pay $25 for shipping too. So, may I know if adding glycerin can fix the problem ? if yes, I will go for 91% coz it's much cheaper and accessible. thanks for your help! 🤓
I'm not exactly sure, but I do recommend the 91%. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. :)
@@SusieShanlian thanks a lot! I look forward to your feedback! I’ve suspended my painting for almost a month before and after relocating in this city just becoz of the costly alcohol. Feeling something is missing without my favourite pastime.
How can we make alcohol ink for resin
I'm not experienced with resin. But thank you for viewing the video. :)
Apparently vegetable glycerin is a sweetener used in foods and drinks.
Interesting! I wasn't aware. Have a good day. Susie
Make a gelli plate with vegetable glycerin, gelatin, and hot water
Is glycerin same as vegetable glycerin
Hello Ana, I'm not sure if it's the same. I'm thinking it is at least very similar, and probably would work. Perhaps you could try a small amount to see if you get the results you desire. Have a good day!
Hi does it have to be 91% is 99 % good
Hello, I've not tried it with 99%, but I think it should work aok. Give it a try and let me know!
How much Glycerin to use for alcohol 99%
I've not tried it with 99% alcohol, but I recommend trying it the same say as described on the video with 91% alcohol. Give it a go, and let me know the results. :)
@Melanie Gaucher and @Susie Shanlian I was going to ask the same but with the lower percent. Any clue?
How about tha 99.9 alcohol??
It should work the same. Give it a try and let me know. Have a good day!
@@SusieShanlian i bought 95% of alcohol ill try to send it to u when i try it...
Will this work with 99% alcohol?
Hello, I haven't tried this with 99%, but I imagine it would work. Give it a try and let me know. Have a good day! Susie
Unsure of a lot of things.
Take it slowly; there a many videos to view online. I practice a lot on ceramic tile.
You should try to find the ratio of glycerol and isopropyl alcohol. you can easily do it because you have the blending solution. besides this your video is not so useful.
@Praveen Kumar 3 drops of. Veg glycerine to a bottle of alcohol she had the 2 oz size.
@@janellepiazza4382 😊
Thank you.
The ratio of glycerol and isopropyl alcohol is mentioned in the video based on the number of ounces in the blending solution 2 oz bottle. Enjoy!
She clearly demonstrated and clearly said to add 3 drops of glycerin to the small bottle of alcohol.
