The fibers Dried or without ink they can be difficult to recycle, because because they are a small object and have a very specific use, some prefer to save them for the little ones to play with at home or throw them away. Although the truth is that it can be used a second time, especially if it is disassembled.
The key element of markers is the ink, and when it dries or runs out fiber It’s no longer useful. In those cases, It is recommended to remove some parts to integrate them into other types of crafts.including those that are intended for children’s homework.
To make crafts with fibers dried you need:
- Fiber ink tube
- Water
The first thing to do is open the fiber to remove the ink tube. It is recommended, to obtain better results, that the greatest number of tubes be put together, since in this way it will be possible to have more preparation.
Then, all these parts are placed in a container with water. You can also cut the tube so that only the sponge that preserves the ink remains. Let it sit for several hours, until you see that the water takes on the color of the fiber.
If you want a specific color, it is best to only add tubes of that shade, but if what you want is to place the water regardless of the shade it takes, you can add any color. When it is well colored, take the liquid to a container that has a spray cap, this way it will be easier to apply.
This water is ideal to use in different types of crafts and create a watercolor paint effect on paper. Therefore, if you want to paint a leaf without having to spend on materials, this is a good technique to do it.
