Ok - so here is a quick, easy and inexpensive way to make your own custom Glimmer Mist. Using a mini spray bottle, water or alcohol, CTMH Create-A-Shade Pearl Paint, and reinker you can create custom colors of glimmer mist. In a mini mister bottle (the size I used is similar to the Ranger Mini Misters - I got mine on ebay) squeeze a drop of paint into the spray bottle. Fill the bottle 3/4 full of water (or alcohol - I have read the alcohol dries faster but have not tried it). By filling the bottle only 3/4 full you can make adjustments to the mix if necessary or add color. If you don't add reinker you will have a nice pearly shimmer. To create custom colors add reinker to achieve desired color. To create a more direct match to the reinker color use about 10-16 drops of reinker, use less for a lighter color. You can always add more reinker to darken your color. You will have to shake the mist up with each use as the paint will start to sink.
In the picture above the paper flower was sprayed with the mist with no reinker added. Just a nice pearly sheen. The great thing about this is you make small batches of custom colors with little or no waste. How great is that. I have to give the credit for this tip to my wonderful CTMH sisters - they are a great group!
