What can I say, the splatter trend has got me. I could splatter anything home decor and jewelry if it was for me!

The splatter effect is as fast as beautiful to create, but very messy: make sure you protect the surface you work on and also consider adding protective vertical panels on most sides. Prepare a mixture of 1/2 paint and 1/2 water, stirr well, then just soak your brush and, helping yourself with the finger like shown in the picture below, splatter randomly ink. For bigger drops soak more, smaller drops require less paint.
