My dilemma.
I had silver mini brads. I wanted black brads.
Solution – color them!
Yes, you can change the color of any brad, regardless of it's original size or color. My simple tip gives those brads a face lift!

Love that tip! I have used a sharpie in the past, but I have always worried that it would still smear. This is a much better solution!
Hi Christine! I have tried Sharpies but they don’t cover nearly as well as the embossing powder does. Plus, you get a nice, shiny and professional finish with embossing. I think you’re going to love trying this. I was going nuts coloring all different brads. It’s quite addictive!
What a fantastic idea, Lisa. TFS. The possibilities are endless.
Enjoy your day & thanks again
