    • Blender Pen Refill

      Dual Tip Blending Pen A blender pen is a dual tip marker that has been filled with a clear blending fluid. A blender pen can be used with ink pads, markers, watercolor pencils, and even chalk. As a versatile crafting tool, it can be expensive to buy the refills. Here is a simple, money saving Blender Pen Refill Recipe .
      . .


      To fill a 1 oz. bottle:

      1/3 Glycerin
      2/3 Distilled water
      1/4 teaspoon alcohol

      Place above ingredients in a dropper bottle.

      Step #1 - Make the Recipe as noted above.

      Step #2 - Carefully pull the tips out (both ends) of the pen. If you have small hands, you can just use your fingers, if you have big hands, you can use tweezers. (be careful you don't ruin the tip!).

      Step #3- Soak the tips in the Blender refill recipe, for several hours (or overnight).

      Step #4- Carefully push the tip back into the marker, adding a few drops of fluid to the pen. If you've made your refill recipe in a dropper bottle as was suggested, the drops will be easy to add.

      Step #5 - Put the remaining tip back into place and Voila! Instant Refill.



      Alternate Blender Refill Recipe:


      2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons glycerin
      5 tablespoons water
      1 teaspoon rubbing alcohol
