  • Here is a video on how I created this epoxy free alcohol ink mugs. To seal and gloss up my mugs I used Brite Tone from the crystalac company. Brite Tone is an epoxy free alternative. Its a non toxic water based top coat. These mugs were inspired by Christi Brown. Her Tik Tok is Gracefulrainart. Be sure to check out her Tik Tok... Her work is AMAZING!

    Hello
    While looking @ how you add and subtract the ink, I think that you waste a lot of ink. You could tape off the rim instead of wiping away the ink. Just a thought! Thanks

  • @melindamartell-lownds4259

    Great video! Do you use Brite Tone all the way to the rim of the mug? Is it safe to drink directly from the mug?

    Hello, this video is so helpful, i have a question though for you. Can you use glitter on the mug and it hold well with the bright tone? I started experimenting with making halloween mugs but use mod podge and glitter. I like your method it looks more official. Could glitter be used though?
    Thank you in advance!

    Have you calculated the cost of 7 layers of Bright Tone? I'm curious how much you are spending just on that part compared to 1-2 resin layers.

  • @leaalvarez9804
    @leaalvarez9804 Před 3 lety

    I was just doing some research on alcohol ink with brite tone. So many do it different or not at all. So brite tone is ok as long as you seal it before adding BT. I want to do this on a plastic Starbucks cup. Do you have a video of that?

    • @MelissaCrafter
      @MelissaCrafter  Před 3 lety +1

      Hi . You can definitely do it on a Starbucks plastic cup. I don’t have a video on it but I can definitely make one. The process will be similar to this video.. except I would spray paint the Starbucks cup white since they are clear. The method I used in this video is just one way of using alcohol inks. You can use them in many ways. You can also use them directly on the cup without pouring alcohol on the cup first. I’ll work on a video using Starbucks cups using different alcohol ink methods.

    is it safe to have your lips on the britetone?

  • @judichristopher4604
    @judichristopher4604 Před 2 lety +1

    Question:
    Is the Britetone clear coat FDA approved, so we can touch the rim with our lips? Right?
    I'm very new to this.. but know that we have to have a Clear Coat that we can drink from.
    Thank you so much for making this BEAUTIFUL Video... Love it.

    • @MelissaCrafter
      @MelissaCrafter  Před 2 lety +2

      You’re very welcome.
      So the FDA does not regulate coatings since they are not intended for consumption. Brite tone surpasses compliance with any FDA , OSHA and EPA standards. There are no toxic or hazardous ingredients in the product and it is food safe when dry. Hope this helps 😊
