Tips and Tutorial Tuesday - Liquid Starch

It is not often that you may need liquid starch. I never have until.....I was crafting and it called for liquid starch. Somehow I had missed that before I started. What now? No liquid starch in the house.

Grandma Shirl - Mom

Luckily I could pick up my phone and call my Mom who has the recipe for anything you want. Here it is and it dries clear also.

Ingredients:
1 cup water
1T cornstarch
Directions:
bring water to boil
in a cup mix cornstarch with a little water, enough to get it mixed
once water is boiling add cornstarch a little at a time until desired thickness



Now the thickness should be thicker than syrup but thinner than gravy! lol this is what Mom told me so I am passing that along to you as well.


There you have liquid starch. Mom said they used this all the time on clothes, etc where starch was needed.
