DIY: TEMPORARY TATTOOS

If you’ve always had an idea of a tattoo in your head that your not sure if you want or not, or you’re just bored on the holidays, you might want to try out this DIY and make our own temporary tattoo.

What You Need:

Eyeliner (liquid pen is easiest, preferably waterproof and/or smudgeproof) 3B, 4B, 5B or 6B pencil Baking or tracing paper Talcum Powder Fluffy make-up brush Wet cloth Spray-on bandage (waterproof)

Firstly, you’ll need to find an image you want to tattoo (or come up with one) and decide where you want to put it. I’m going to draw the design on the new Endless Drain Major Leagues t-shirts and put it on my left wrist.

You’ll then want to print out the image and trace it (or draw it) onto your baking paper with your pencil.

Place the tracing where you want it, then apply a wet cloth on top and remove after approximately 20 seconds.

Draw along the tracing with your eyeliner.

Sprinkle talcum powder on your design and spread it with the make-up brush.

Spray on top the design with the spray-on bandage and wait for it to dry completely.

Now your tattoo is waterproof and should last for about 3 days. Try not to rub or wash the tattoo too much and it should last longer. Enjoy tattooing.

The Chive Cart (spray booth for faceups)

Most of the problems associated with sealing sprays occur during the action of spraying itself. If there is a lot of moisture in the air (which can also be brought about by cold temperature) during those few seconds while you release the spray, it can get trapped underneath your sealant layer which causes the layer to later crack, craze or chip. Staying indoor, at least during the spraying action, allows me to control my room temperature, source of lighting and I do not have to deal with annoying wind which can cause dust and other particles to get sprayed onto the doll as well. However, I needed a way to encapsulate all that toxic fumes I am about to be spraying. The idea of using a spray booth for this purpose is definitely not new, but thought I’d show you one I made out of am archive box:

I chose this box because it’s not too big and has handles on the sides for portability. Below is a second version of the spray boxy: I’ve cut out the arm holes at differing heights. Because of the way I hold my spray bottle, I just find this position more comfortable.

Here is me putting my spray boxy to use: Video . Right after i finish spraying, i wait a few minutes until the sealant layer settles and solidifies a bit, then i gently place the head on the tissue i got inside the box, take both of my hands out and carry the box by the handle outside of the house. Only when I’m outside, I open the lid of the box to take my doll head out. While i’m out there, i let my boxy air so the fumes dissipate (fanning it helps), sometimes i wipe the inside of the box too to get rid off the sealant that has stuck to the sides. I then put the lid back down and take everything back inside the house. If I need to do another spraying, I repeat this process but start with being outside when I place the object inside of the box, then bring the box inside and wait until the temperature of the air inside the box matches my indoor condition before I begin spraying again. Another Video showing the two designs. Some photos showing how the box was made:

First I cut out some arm holes. I started with same level, but later I figured out that I am more comfortable having the arm holes at differing heights.

Cut the top of the box as well as a bit of the side so I can see a lot more inside the box.

I just used this clear plastic from the back of an old booklet to make my window.

Stick the plastic with duct tape. Also, I make sure the lid opens this way (toward the back), it’s just more practical having it away from me while I spray.

Now I attach some gloves

I use the cardboard from the old booklet to make reinforcements for the arm holes.

I make sure the angle of the gloves will be comfortable for the angle of my arms for when I spray.

I then duct taped the crap out of it. Put all my object and spray in it and I’m ready to go.​
