That technique definitely makes interesting designs, just like blooms. They are lovely.

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

The bloom technique makes for striking coasters - beautiful. Can you add a small splash/wisp of contrasting colour to the mix to further draw the eye in/intrigue/make it 'pop'? Great job!

Thank you lilum, and yes, this technique really works well for the coasters. You can add whatever colors you like to the mix. You stretch the colors out, so sometimes they mix together, so you never know what you might end up with

'Thank you lilum, and yes, this technique really works well for the coasters. You can add whatever colors you like to the mix. You stretch the colors out, so sometimes they mix together, so you never know what you might end up with.'

Interesting - perhaps I could look into it further. I like the idea of adding a drop or two of colour/s to the already stretched out colours when dry and/or wet. The technique seems to allow for much play/experimentation. Thanks

Lilium, yes. I watched a lot of youtube videos on the bloom technique, that is where I got my information about the pouring medium you need to use, and instructions on how to do it I find it really fun to do
