Shimmer Mist

How do you store your Shimmer Mist and Smooch Spritz?  I keep mine in a Bell Jar without the lid insert – with a pretty ribbon tied around it   These are the mists that I make by filling a spritzer bottle about 3/4 of the way with 70% alcohol, about a 1/4 teaspoon of Shimmer Paint and reinker (if needed)  

For the Spritzer bottles, I punch a 1/2″ circle of whatever color reinker I’ve added and adhere to the lid of the bottle.  You can rinse these bottles out and use them for other colors if you want – but they are only $2.95 for 2 bottles (126185) so I just designate a bottler for a color. 

And here’s a fun idea!  The Shimmer Paints have a little ball inside the jar to help you stir them up.  When I’ve gone through the bottle of paint, I drop the ball into a Spritzer bottle and it helps stir my Shimmer Mist! 

Can you see it in there?  It works!  Once you start spritzing things – it’s hard to stop!  Hugs, Fran

  1. Love your idea, TFS Hugs n’ Stuff, Lynne

  2. Great storage solution…and looks great with your beautiful bow!

  3. Love our Shimmer paints! I keep my paints in my carry case that goes every where with me when stamping. Also keep one in the same bag. My spritzers are in a wooden holder made by my up-up line’s hubby…which also has room for a few Shimmer bottles. Great tip, will follow your suggestion…thank you!

  4. Thanks for the idea fran! I just bought the empty spritz bottles from Stampin Up but so far I have only used water and ink refill. Now I will have to try making the shimmer mist; so much fun!
    Love your blog, I will be adding it to my list of blogs I love!

  5. Have fun!  I have no doubt you’ll soon be “shimmering” everything in sight!  Hugs, Fran
