Adding a Tiny Drop of Color

Then, using a toothpick, dab a tiny tiny partial drop of colorant into the top of each hole. A little goes a long way! I'm using maybe a sixth of a drop, or even less, with each dab.

You can always add more...but you don't want to add too much!

Again...teeny tiny little bits of color in the top of the holes.
