Homemade Transfer Ink: Recipe

Materials:

2 TBSP soap powder (like Ivory Snow)
1/4 cup hot water
1 TBSP turpentine

Directions:

• Add the soap powder and turpentine to the hot water, making sure to dissolve the soap.
• Pour the liquid into a sealed container for storage.

How To Use:

• Simply brush this liquid (your homemade transfer ink) over the picture to be transferred.
• Wait approximately 10 seconds. Next, place a piece of paper over the picture and rub the paper with the back of a spoon. The picture will transfer to the paper.

You can use this homemade transfer ink with comic strips and other paper documents (such as patterns, home computer printouts and photocopies). Test first, if a paper type absorbs the ink too quickly it won’t transfer well.

You can also use this transfer process on fabrics.
