Paper DIY Watercolor Bookmarks

-


Hey Everyone,

Hope you all are doing amazing today. The blog for today will be showing you how you can use the watercolor technique to make some really amazing bookmarks for yourself and your reader friends. Watercolor painting has been one of my favorite forms of art as I have been an art student. I always loved playing with the paints and painting myself something on the watercolor sheet. You might find it difficult to learn how you can use different colors together and mix them in a way which makes the painting look pretty, but once you practice, trust me you can do anything perfectly with practice.  So watch the videos by amazing video bloggers to learn how you can watercolor your bookmarks and make something classy out of it.

Disclaimer: All the videos that will be shared in today’s blog belong to really amazing video bloggers and we, at Crafty Blogger, do not take any credit for the amazing talent displayed by them. The super ideas given by them can be tried by you for the DIY of your choice.

I will be sharing many videos today so be ready for an amazing blog ahead. Let the watercolor tutorials begin!



Beautiful!  I just love watercolors!


The effect of watercolors can be perfect if you are using the right kind of brush and the quality of the paint matters a lot. The shops these days have got so much variety in the brands that you might just get confused.Get the ones that are more popularly used by art students. I used to use Winston and Newton, you can check out the different options you have. 



I don’t think anyone would want to lose these beautiful bookmarks! Definitely not me!



I forgot to mention about the sheet on which you paint. Yet again, since there are so many producers producing such amazing sheets for watercolor painting specifically, the ones with more grains like the pastel sheet can be a good pick for you guys.But as my teacher used to tell me, don’t use too much water. Because using too much water can make the paper sheet too wet, thus giving it a sort of a bend. So to avoid that, use less water. The best way is to dip your brush in the water once, touch the edge of the glass with the tip of the wet brush, put it on the paper and then dip the brush in the paint and touch the paper with the paint on the brush just where you left off. I hope you understand that easily.  Just watch the videos to see a practical explanation.


Wow!



Superb ideas!  You can obviously alter the shades of color and the design according to your choice. But don’t these look simply amazing?



And some more awesome ideas.




Loved each and every idea shared today. And I hope you did too! And that is about it for today. Hope you enjoyed learning this DIY. Until next time, stay crafty!
