TIP: Do not squeeze out too much paint during this step. It’s okay if you do though! It’s part of the effect and it will still look great! If you go in a straight line from line to line you won’t get pooling in between the lines. Try to move quickly but smoothly to avoid pooling the black glue. Use your black glue to outline your rainbow fish. You can get the template as a freebie for subscribing to our newsletter on the form at the bottom of this post with the preview of the template.

You can also shake the bottle to spread the paint around. You can use a paintbrush to stir in the bottle to make sure to mix it up properly. It will probably end up being close to 1/4 black paint and 3/4 white glue. What we did is added black glue a little at a time until you get the color you’re looking for.

But the key is that you need to really mix it. You just mix acrylic black paint with regular white glue. In order to make black glue, it’s pretty simple.
