craftgrrlHi all,
I'd like to make a name on rice charm for a friend, who I will be seeing this summer. I've done a lot of google searching for the materials needed but haven't had a lot of luck. (example of a name on rice charm)
What type of oil would you use to make this? I've searched on google and I haven't found any type of oil that is clear and transparent. All the sites I've been on have said they used 'magnifying oil', but what oil are they using exactly?
If I just used water, do you think it would last a long, long time?
And last question, apart from online buying, where could you buy the vials (preferably in the Ottawa/Toronto area)?
I'll be going on vacation and seeing my friend on July 15, so it'll be appreciated if I could get answers before July 10th.
EDIT: Thank you to everyone who replied, especially![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
beautifulwolf. I have a final question and I've checked on the Internet (not much info) and I am planning to go to Michael's tomorrow, but where can you get the miniature real flowers (something like these, perhaps)?
Thank you in advance!
