3. Pour alcohol over the marker on the tile. You can do
drops, single pours or spray bottles, each way leaves
a different type of marble design. No too much, just
enough to spread the ink on the tile pieces.
4. Then you can let it dry the way it is and see a marble
like piece of art. If you see the alcohol is too much and
is taking way too much color just blot it off with a
paper towel and you’ll see a different type of tile art!
Then you’re done.
5. Wait for it to cool off and you’ve got a cool piece of
tile art!
TIP: Glue tiles together to make a giant art piece to hang
on the wall or fill a room with them! Use them for a craft
room; the floor would look unique and colorful. Use them
as a background on a wall, or glue them in cool designs
and show them off in your kids play room. If your kids
want more fun for later, wipe off the tiles with alcohol
and they will be as good as new. Have fun with it!
