Both of these hooks are beautiful in their own unique way. The possibilities are endless.

[@sonagray3176]

Beautiful dangles! I agree with other person who said Giant Bulb Pin. In addition to adding to junk journals, I’m going to use with my Bible, as well as, adding to my handbags.

[@tlk2348]

I absolutely love your videos. This was such a cute project. Thank you for your kind words in the video. Very sweet!

[@vivilovespaper]

Oh my goodness what a brilliant idea. I love how both dangles turned out but my favorite ended up being the one with the paper beads and the key. Thank you Ingrid 🥰

[@Freddybender123]

On the hunt for those shower rings ❤thanks for the inspiration

[@dianapadilla3617]

Bless you for sharing the word on your channel. Loved this idea as well.

[@51andhappy44]

What a great idea! I never would’ve thought to use these shower curtain clips like this. Thank you for sharing!

[@rhondahunt9888]

Wow, they are both so pretty and yes i got ideas from this. I don’t think i own alcohol inks but adding color is wonderful so I may get a few in favorite colors. I would reinforce the holes with eyelets. Since i am a scrapbooker and only a potential junk journalist, i need to adapt a flatter hook but using a shower curtain hook is brilliant if bulk is okay. Maybe i’d use this outside on a photo album cover. Honestly, using the decorated hooks on hangers in your closet, as a hook for kitchen towel, tie backs, etc, would be like adding jewelry! Even from your car mirror! You are so creative! My problem is being interested in too many art methods, collecting the supplies and living in a tiny already-overcrowded studio apartment. 😂 Thanks again, Ingrid!

[@janicehetrick3]

This is a very cute idea. Thank you for showing us how to make these on the cheaper but looking gorgeous dollar tree finds. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Crafting_Whimsy]

Love this idea! Such a nice addition to a journal…I’d add strips of fabric for a tassel!

[@kimberlymc6243]

What a lovely project! I just got some ‘new to me’ alcohol inks from my local creative reuse center, and I can’t wait to pop over to the dollar store to stock up on some shower curtain hooks! Thanks for sharing!

[@GardeniasandGrace]

I was looking for another reason to go to Dollar Tree! Lol. 😂 I absolutely love this idea. Thank you for sharing! 😊❤️

[@brendadavisscrapitydoda1284]

What a great idea❤

[@susanmorales8675]

These are so pretty. I can’t wait to try some. Thanks, Ingrid.

[@angelburba635]

I love using zip top plastic bags for coloring metals. Several drops of color with several pieces and then kneeling the bag. I let it sit a while then dump on to wax paper or paper towels to dry.

[@brandasuther1156]

Wow, what a brilliant idea! Thank you for sharing an easier way to color the books.

[@julieschwartz2135]

The neutral rust is my favorite, but the other is great too. I already bought these shower curtain hooks right after I saw you purchase them, lol. 🥰

[@RayneSaltair]

GIANT bulb pins. So cute. Thanks for the idea, I'm going to try it but I don't have alcohol inks. Will have to try markers or paint.

[@ourcreativebeehive]

Look up how to diy alcohol ink. I believe some have even done it using DT markers.

[@RayneSaltair]

@@ourcreativebeehive wow thank you so much.

[@voguevania]

Sharpies are alcohol inks! If you already have some, you might wish to experiment with scribbling on your shower curtain rings, then spritzing or dribbling 91% rubbing alcohol to move the ink around. Alternatively, you could scribble on a non-porous surface, like a ceramic dish, add the alcohol, then quickly add it to your project with a paint brush. If you hate chemical smells, the sharp alcohol aroma will stop you in your tracks, so it's good to to test it out with the Sharpies before purchasing. Many alcohol ink users prefer to wear a mask and disposable gloves. The Resin Studio Pigment Inks at Dollar Tree are very likely alcohol inks, and the price is right. I bought Mod Podge brand alcohol ink at Walmart a while back, but they're not appearing in the app search. Hobby Lobby sells the Ranger Ink/Tim Holtz, brand in their paper crafting section, and they might still carry Brea Reese brand in the Art Supplies section. Ingrid showed both brands in her stash. Please don't buy the no-name brand in their art section. It's in the same bottles as the Brea Reese line, but they're truly awful, and will ruin your experience. HL may also sell another artist brand, Piñata. If you don't like the results, the ink can also be removed by wiping with the rubbing alcohol. I hope you love playing with alcohol inks! (Don't forget to protect your surfaces.) 🌷🌷🌷

@@voguevania You are an absolute ANGEL. Thank you so much for all this information. May you find all the joy this life can give you.

[@annaleehowell4792]

You ROCK! You're 💣!!! I sooo enjoy all you SHARE with us! Thanks and GBY!!! ❤ ~Ana- Oklahoma

[@juliecurtis9517]

I love these! I like the one you took the beads off of the best. You added beautiful beads to it and its stunning.

[@KimberlyChristy-ql8ww]

Oh, so fun. I hope I can find them. Tyfs, have a blessed day 🙏 😊

[@robinsismai9085]

Another gorgeous project!! I didn't think I was going to like the one where you put the alcohol ink on the beads, but that one ended up being my favorite!!

[@suefryer2991]

wonderful inspiring idea

[@voguevania]

This was amazing! I'm not a junk (or any kind of) journaler (journalist?) yet, but I have loved buying DT craft supplies for several years. This led me to watch your recent junk journal haul. I truly enjoyed it! I've watched several of your projects, and I'm now a subscriber. This video has inspired me to use the alcohol inks I already own to color my STAPLES! Years ago, Dollar Tree had jewel-toned staples in their back-to-school supplies, and I purchased beautiful blue ones. Since I moved, I have not been able to find them. Just yesterday, I told a co-worker that I would look for gold ones online, to match my beautiful gold-and-clear stapler I got from Hobby Lobby. Now I must try alcohol ink first! I can have an array! The inks can probably also color the little charms you purchased during the haul that drew me in. Thanks for sharing this project tonight. 💐💐

[@rhondahunt9888]

Ohhhh, staples…yes! I also have that lovely stapler! But knowing we can transform any plain metal is eye opening! Had another word in mind but since covid, words can escape me. 😂 Only have silver brads, paper clips, safety pins or bulb pins? Just color them!

[@gailcason3652]

Very clever!

[@graciesnycmama]

Great idea ❤ love your encouragement.

[@brandasuther1156]

Another awesome video with such a clever idea! I love what someone else said about them being giant bulb pins. Thank you for sharing your neverending creativity with us. 🤩

[@donnamahaffey4225]

First time watching your videos. I love this idea. They look amazing. Thank you for your words of encouragement.

[@dawnbrosnan7186]

I was wondering what you would do with them! I love the ink but I think you also need to flip them over and do the top. Leaving them shiny silver doesn’t go with the bottom but they are still very beautiful! I like it when we add hand made items to a journal! Way to go! Have you thought of wrapping them in fabric scraps and gluing along the way? Maybe another idea? Dawn

[@kellimiller2418]

I love this idea and it definitely inspired me to create some of my own!! Thank you!

[@bridgetjones8339]

What a genius mind you have ❤

[@RockyRoadCreationsbyDiana]

Great idea!❤

[@customercustomer3634]

Very nice!!!!!

[@tripletgirl2484]

SO creative! I wonder if there is a way to make my own alcohol inks. Must investigate! I guess I’d have to say the green/blue is my favorite, but both are wonderful!

[@stacylinn3102]

Oh my goodness these are so amazing 😍 thanks for sharing. My favorite was the green one

[@karatootie]

@@stacylinn3102 You’re the AMAZING one Stacy!! A million thank yous!! 💕 The green is beautiful!! 💚💙🩵

[@debchilson2719]

So far it is the aqua and green

[@Gigi2foir]

Haha! Over wondering if I could rob one from my shower curtain would it be noticed… 🤔. Have gone down the paper bead rabbit hole, also 😱

[@sandypalmer3861]

I just love beads! Both look great. I have used DT shower hooks before - to hang tools from the BBQ. Not nearly as glamorous or fun!

[@juliecurtis9517]

I swatch little dots and glue them to the top of the bottles so I know what color 5hey are when I o0en my tote...

[@melissahall9742]

Love the idea! Does the alcohol ink come off (with use of the journal) or do you need to seal it in with a clear spray?

[@cindyburns7667]
