DIY supplies tutorial

Hi Friends,

I have been searching for homemade mod podge,modelling paste and mists recipe..and tried making them too...So here is a tutorial on them..as I did it with whatever supplies I had with me .

1.Mod podge:
Ratio-2:1
2 portion Fevicol(or any white pva craft glue) and add one portion of water

2.Modelling paste:
All in same ratio-
Fevicol+white acrylic paint+baby talcum powder

3.Mists:

Add few drops of printer ink(whatever color u have ,you can also mix and make different colors from basic colors)+white acrylic paint+little water.
If you want it glimmer one then u can add any matching color fevicryl pearl paints or I added fevicryl mettalic powder  (silver,gold or copper).
Consistency must be not very thin not very thick..and put it in a spray bottle or mini mister.

And I used them on my latest mixed media project...all worked absolutely fine..
Let me know if it works for you and did u like it??

Mixed media Canvas-Using all my DIY MM supplies

Hey Friends,

Back again...As I promised u all ,will soon use all my DIY supplies...so here it is..It's not in my comfortable zone..but was longing to make a mixed media canvas.I started off with a blank round canvas(12 inches diameter) and a blank mind..with table full of supplies...
Here is the result.I have textured ,misted,used stencils,stamped and decoupaged pattern papers.And the latest addition to my DIY supplies is homemade mod podge..it worked really well...to be frank all of them worked really well...Flowers are misted from my home made mists.The chipboard swirl and white flowers are from Itsy bitsy.




Hope you like it!

Hi Friends,

As now a days mixed media is a trend..I have been youtube learning this amazing art .I wanted so many new products but as I am a budget crafter..I started looking for ways how I can make my own supplies with the help of the things which I have around my craft table.
So here are mists,modelling paste and hand cut stencil .

Soon you can expect some projects using these DIY supplies.
