Clean daubers

It may look like I'm marinating my daubers, but in fact I'm rinsing the old ink out of them.

Because I am not always good about using just one color per dauber, I thought it would be a good idea to clean them.

I rinsed them several times until the water was clear.

Then I squished them into a paper towel to get the rest of the ink out.

And finally....

I put them onto a cooling rack to dry.

Why take the chance to mix inks and spread the wrong color?  Just try to keep things clean the first time!
