Crackle & Blend Alcohol Ink Techniques on Ceramics

[@dorismuir1592]

WOW! Beautiful projects, you are so inspiring!

[@WakkasLove]

Very useful information! I loved the crackle, but you are the first person out of all the videos I've watched, to mention that alcohol inks fade over time. I had no idea! Thanks for saving my future artwork!

[@DisorganizedCrafter]

Thank you so much for the inspiration, I have a new found passion for art in a different medium, can't tell you how much it means to me ... thank you again for sharing your talent ...

[@marymangano1705]

Like many others, I am wondering how you seal the lip of the bowl/glass. i'm assuming that these are food safe but would like to know that for sre. thanks

[@bluealliekatt1]

This is the first video of yours that I’ve watched and I really enjoyed it! Thanks for the helpful tips and the great demo’s! I look forward to trying this out!

[@betsinewbury4670]

Awesome ideas! I'm off to Walmart to find some ceramics :) A couple of questions though - after the pieces are sealed how can they be used? Are they safe to use as say cereal bowls? Should they be hand washed? Do they ever need to be resealed? Many thanks!

[@DeniseMcIntyre2016]

love your video! 1st time subscriber! I'm so looking forward to working with alcohol inks!

[@jeni_bean]

Hi Jane thank you for your video. How would you seal them using your sprays. I know you can put the bowl upside down but how to get the rim of the bowl without contaminating the inside?

[@7northgate7]

I'm hoping there will be a demo

[@moogie3111]

you could always just use good old masking tape around the edge of the bowl, turn it upside down, and then you'll be good to go. I love masking tape!

[@ponygecko]

Jane are these bowls useable for food after treating with the varnishes? And are they dishwasher safe? Thanks in advance.

[@terry_kathryn]

Kathryn Parmeter I’d love to know also hmmm, I think I might do a white tile & run it through my dishwasher for a while 😁😁😁

[@jennifermetivier5483]

No this is not food safe

[@carolanneconnolly-brown6781]

Perfect, exactly what I was looking for

[@shannonsimmons4647]

Are these dishwasher safe after they have been sprayed? They are awesome!!

[@michellehunter-thehennalof8765]

Following!

[@jasminesuri6784]

Shannon Simmons I wanted to know the same

[@JaneMonteith]

Patty Jensen Thanks Patty 💕

[@amasikabanahene1434]

Omg really inspired

[@dianekohl9179]

hi. i have a question like some, will these bowl be ok for use as salad and cereal bowls, meaning, is the sealing etc ok because it is on the outside only. food safe? i canot see use as a fruit bowl as they are too small... thank you!

[@janetproctor6233]

Thank you for sharing 😊 I think inks are much more expensive in the UK - I'm counting pennies with every drop you use 😀

[@JaneMonteith]

Janet Proctor yes agreed they are fairly expensive. Yikes I go through so much 🙈

[@SweetWillowDsgn]

Love your tutorials and can't wait for the book!

[@JaneMonteith]

Sweet Willow Designs Thanks. Me too! 💕

[@neightzindustries]

Hi. Can It be toped with Automotive paint?

[@maryrjfitz]

Are these bowls dishwasher safe. They are so pretty!

[@MegaBitters]

I love all of these! They are stunning. Thank you for sharing how you do this, I can't wait to try it :)

[@lori88ish]

Thanks so much for sharing this technique I cant wait to try it out and I will be definitely checking out your book and as soon as my budget lets me I will get it. Have a great week Hugs and smiles

[@KellieChasse]

Creative gal - as usual! I just posted your new book to my student group!!

[@JaneMonteith]

Kellie Chasse Aww Thanks so much Kellie!! That’s so kind of you 🥰💕

[@maureencronin1075]

Well done!

[@lovepoet4u121]

Can you use mini wax polycrylic varnish to seal

[@amyclark6640]

I love this! But do you know how you get the bigger "cells" in the first example? I've done it and it turned out full of lines from the wrap and not so crackled up in large cells like in this video..do you know what I could be doing wrong?

[@shondawhitaker8728]

Can i make alcohol ink, or can I use a different paint or nail polish?? Those are beautiful!!

[@MohammedAli-sn5gd]

Beautiful... can we do such techniques with alcohol pens

[@doodysoso2975]

Thanks for sharing this, can someone eat it, and is it for alcoholic colors

[@justineolausen1115]

Thank you Jane, was wondering if you had any ideas on what kind of product I could use to glaze over tissue paper that is stuck to wax?

[@Karri_in_the_PNW]

Awesome Techniques! Would the Alcohol Ink have sealed if you took a lighter to it?

[@1600murphy]

When you're putting the varnish and UV resistant on do you do that to the inside of the bowl also

[@norinemueller4588]

This is the best video I’ve seen yet thank you When doing the strips on the cup could you use painters tape if you wanted them straight

[@creationsbyjsheri]

Beautiful techniques. I can't wait to try them out. TFS!

[@Margot4454]

Amazing ! Really amazing effect

[@radwazakaria2362]

gorgeous❤️ If i used i colored the inside of the plate , can it be used i mean for eating???

[@Beatriz-yy6qx]

Is this thecnique possible to use in ceramic peaces and burn then ?

[@mothermakeup7481]

why do my alcohol inks never dry? am I doing something wrong?

[@marcohairdoctor]

Great ideas! are these bowls and vessels food safe after the color treatment and sealers?

[@reshminair5502]

Wow :) it is so beautiful

[@karenboyan8563]

Jane, your video tutorials are just wonderful! Quick question-is there a trick to keeping the Kamar varnish from making the ink bleed when you spray it? It didn’t cause bleeding when I used it on inked glass, but it did on inked ceramics. Any advice is most welcome-thank you!

[@modhialeliwah6229]

If for example I did an alcohol ink art on a plate or a cup, what can I put or use to make the design not being washed off and safe to eat or drink from it?

[@karengould9563]

Thank you after watching the whole video I saw thanks so much😁

[@karenkelleher989]

Okay, lovely work, I do like the techniques very much. I, too, spray the sealers on my alcohol ink works. BUT... on the things like glassware and bowls etc, I bake them in the oven and wait two weeks before use, and I do not spray them. Does the spray really truly last on the bowls with light hand washing? Do you know? I’m asking, probably knowing you won’t answer, since you have not replied to any of the other comments. Is that because you are selling them?

[@Amandahugginkizz]

You could leave a white gap between the pink and blue dipped cup

[@sandraleamelendez9679]

Oh my gosh, I Love this idea. I just recently came across this art, so I'm hoping this isn't a stupid question. Question: I might have missed it, are these vases or drinking tumbles. Are you able to drink out of them with the sealers on? Can you drink out of an item after applying a resin?

[@joannecrombie9152]

Sandra Lea Melendez I wondered the same thing. Are they food safe.

[@joannecrombie9152]

Art Resin is food safe.

[@jennifermetivier5483]

No, this is not food safe

[@MartaSarasuati]

So pretty! Is this suitable on glass?

[@charlesdhanielgarcia6961]

Hi, I'd like to ask if the sealers are food safe. Thank you

[@didee1000]

What a easy method and yet the results are spectacular! One question... do you spray the inside of the vessels as well? Or do you cover them somehow to prevent the spray from getting inside? Many thanks!

[@ReneeW59]

I love this! Thanks for sharing your technique with us, Jane!

[@cidbanares2509]

What’s the name of that pencil marker to color the rim of the bowl?

[@Kimmie978]

These are beautiful! Can't wait to try this technique. Thank you so much for sharing this! :)

[@genevievemilot8187]

Have you ever put a dishwasher primer modpodge has one to your pieces My husband loves the dishwasher

[@JaneMonteith]

Genevieve Milot yes and it doesn’t work especially if you put it on hot cycle. Even after the recommended cure time of 28 days. The repetitive washing over time wears down the film and eventually chips off. Best to treat alcohol ink painted ceramics like fine china and lightly hand wash.

[@genevievemilot8187]

Thank you so much

[@amethyst1826]

Hi. I tried this & it turned out 'ok.' Lol. On a clear vase, & I missed a bit - it's shaped like fat bottom, skinny neck, with tapers out wider, so a small problem wrapping. And I got a bare bit. Would you go over it, or clean off & try again, please?

[@maggieqiu5645]

Do you protect the inner side of the bowl when you spay?

[@DiDianne01]

Amazing and thank you soo much

[@shyamkumar-zt8dx]

Thank you :) very engaging!

[@Cheryl64014]

You are extraordinarily creative, Jane! Thank you for sharing this technique with us! But I want to know more-more-more so I've just pre-ordered your book, and now eagerly await November 19th! Thank you, again.

[@JaneMonteith]

Cheryl64014 Aww Thank you so much 😘🙏🏼

[@Cheryl64014]

@@JaneMonteith :) My pleasure.

[@gailhochman1494]

how do you wash the bowl once it's done and you use it for food?

[@TiffanyMedifastMommaSoto]

Hi! This is amazing, I saw it on your IG. Can you do this effect on a spray painted stainless steel cup?

[@JaneMonteith]

Tiffany Soto yes. Anything non porous will be fine.

[@cherylhudson5080]

Fascinating you never cease to amaze, this technique looks great one question is it dishwasher safe after the Kamar has been finished. Keep up the good work and TFS

[@dawnschwering6603]

Found your channel after seeing another video that mentioned this video. After sealing, are these food safe? I feel like it was implied by saying to wash like fine China in soap and water but I wanted to be sure.

[@bethbahel145]

Fantastic

[@jodijohns2572]

Well, guess I know what I’ll be doing this weekend 😀

[@JaneMonteith]

Jodi Johns 😝👍🏼

[@cheryldass9832]

Can you tell me what kind of tape you use to cover cermaic bowls while inking. I put blue paint tape and it came right off right away. Thx

[@tamekabreland7677]

you can use electrical tape

[@Alchemy_Art_Designs]

Thanks Jane👍 just wondering if it would be more cost effective and safer to brush the outsides with resin ?

[@brandytorrez32]

I was told to bake my glass after I inked them. Is that right? I can't find anything about it. Everything I see has the sprays. I've also heard that when you pour hot liquid in you can smell the spray and that's why they baked it. What's the right way please?

[@gailchapter9240]

Is there a way to get a crackle effect on resin?

[@elainegobis6482]

Olá lindo seu trabalho, gostaria de saber qual tinha vc usa? 😘

[@lusciousleggings6829]

very nice

[@anasoto3775]

Hi...where can i get that brand online?

[@WhiskeyBlack777]

But are the bowls still food-safe with that paint on top?

[@ashleywarwick9535]

When are used the sealer the ink started to run a little bit am I spraying to much ?

[@karenboyan8563]

I have been wondering the same thing! Thanks, Jane, for the great tutorial! I did have problems with the ink running when I sprayed on the Kamar varnish…any way to avoid that? Any help is greatly appreciated. 😁

[@cajunkid0]

Can you do this technique with 🕯 candles?

[@BelindaPort]

Do you share alternative products to Saran Wrap and Kamar Varnish in your book? We cannot import the latter as it my not be in a plane.

[@JaneMonteith]

Sarah sarah I share alternative products yes. But not cling wrap. Do you not have cling film in your country ?

[@gabrielaetchepare7505]

Soo pretty!!!🤗😘thanks!!!! A question ....for the golden ink has the same result ??😅

[@JaneMonteith]

gabriela etchepare golden doesn’t make alcohol inks. They make acrylic inks which are not the same. But you can still attempt the same effect. :-)

[@DianeMaley]

Can you bake the color on in the oven?

[@belindamason8286]

If I pre order your book when will it be available or an estimated time of shipment? Love this tutorial ❣️. Thanks so much for sharing your tips and awesome creations.

[@JaneMonteith]

Belinda Mason Thanks Belinda! The publisher is set to release November 19th I believe. So all get shipped then. Just in time for the holidays 💕
