Jonathon, you have no idea, having watched a year of chalk-paint tutorials on RUclips, how grateful I am that you are willing to let us see the FULL process. The best teaching moments are the ones where you fix little problems or go back to add or remove paint. Highlights and low-lights, illustrated after the fact so that we see the difference --This was the first time I really got it. You are a Master Teacher. That you would come back and declare a misstep with the base was Wonderful. Another Master's teaching moment. And thank you for the subtlety with which you dry-brushed and gilded the detail. That and the symmetry of the top -- And I've certainly never seen anyone try free-forming an accent line around the perimeter of a table, which certainly took it to the next level! Thank you for being so capable and confident and generous enough with your time that we can see every step of the way. This video is precious to me, as are you.
Here again in October 2023. I have previously viewed this incredible makeover and enjoyed another visit to gain more insights and skills. What I so appreciate about you, Jonathon, is your willingness to be transparent with us and include the difficult processes when they occur. When you remain calm and contiinue on, it motivates me to do the same. Not all artists will do this and only upload the "perfect piece" when completed. Never stop being you, the amazing and talented Jonathan we love. ❤
I am so enjoying your tutorials. I just recently found you on RUclips and am really enjoying your art works. I am a huge fan of decoupage and will be trying this in the near future. Great work and you are so talented. Thank you for your instructions.
Thank you for your lovely message and of course welcome to the channel really great to have you here and I’m so pleased that you’re enjoying the tutorials happy creating 😊🙏❤️
Great work. I have just discovered your tutorials as well and I so enjoy them. No irritating music - Just really peaceful listening to you! The pieces you create are gorgeous!!!!!💥💚
Thank you so much and welcome to my channel I really appreciate your lovely comment it is always difficult choosing music I’m pleased that it seems to be right 😊😊
You are truly a creative artist going beyond being just being an artist. Creating your own design out of this beautiful paper combine with blending paint to unify the given area is awesome. I am always impressed by what you create and enjoy your inspiring videos!
As I was editing the video I couldn’t quite believe just how loud the birds really are I suppose when you’re getting on with your daily business it’s just a background noise but I couldn’t agree more absolutely beautiful 😊😊😊
Jonathon you continue to be an inspiration. Your tutorials are so precise and help an old woman like me. Thank you and God Bless you now and in your future. ❤️❤️❤️
Helloooo, I came for the pretty pictures but stayed for the end results. I am so impressed with not only your artistic style but your style of teaching. So many tutorials have been pre-planned and are rushed through. You have explained why you are doing what you are doing and also telling us mere mortals is it ok if it’s not perfect. Thank you!
Hello Jonathan, I enjoyed watching you do another decoupage project. Very educational. It is nice to see you take "wrong" steps and then fix them because that is the reality for me. Lots of wrong steps. Ha, ha. Personally, I am not a dark brown/black person, so I was sad to see that gorgeous green of the legs disappear..... I LOVE green. But, it's for you. so, it's for your liking. My tables will have green legs. Ha, ha. Thank you. You are officially my favorite youtube teacher. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your lovely message and I’m trying to learn to make sure that all mistakes stay in my videos I think it truly is important I don’t want everyone to see an edited polished facade that isn’t real I do make mistakes all of the time I try and learn from them and the jury is still out on the bottom half it may get a repaint at some point but I do love the top 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Jonathan! Laura from France. I discovered your chanel looking for tips découpage and OMG you have teach me so many things! Thank you so much. I love your videos and how you explain things . So easy to follow your advises. Thank you so much!
It’s absolutely gorgeous and I love that you aren’t afraid to admit if you’re not quite happy with something and explain how to fix it. Leaving the “ blank space” for a lamp or a vase is a wonderful idea. All over pattern has stopped me from doing some projects because I didn’t want to cover the entire space. I just love this table. Thank you for sharing it.
I'm just starting to dabbling on Decoupage and I've wondered how one makes it look nice as most paper isn't large enough to cover furnature pieces. This is great. Thank you! This is beautiful.
Jonathan I saw a fabulous little cabinet you did that you decoupaged pages of music inside along with what you appeared to use beautiful napkin flowers with. Could you please please make a video on that to show how you made it. I’m a music teacher and would love to have that in the room where I teach piano and harp. I love your videos. You’re very talented. Thanks, Nancy Moss
Hello... from across the pond in Ontario, Canada.I am so thrilled that I found your channel. I couldn't sleep and was tuning in @ 4am this morning. I was so excited to watch you combine napkin decoupage along with painting techniques.. My daughter bought a 2nd hand "entertainment unit" The only thing I find entertaining about it is the horrible paint job and round balls that were stuck on for feet. I've been throwing out ideas at her every time we visit. After watching you do such an amazing finish, I knew exactly what I, or we needed to do and I ordered some gorgeous, baroque napkins on-line. I might let her help pick out the paint. Thanks for the inspiration!
I was watching your show of Jan. 2, 2022, where you are discussing what color to paint..what...and I absolutely L❤vE your color choices ! I watched the show this morning when you painted the 1920's piece and it came out gorgeous ! Totally 'drool-worthy' ! Lol
Thank you Jonathan. You’ve turned that table into a beautiful piece of art. Loved watching it transform before my eyes. Very inspiring ~ this summer I will try my hand at this. ❤️ from 🇨🇦
Oh boy can't wait and hope I can catch this live. I was inspired by another black table you did, Jonathan, to repair paint and play with an old table we had. It looks cute and gets to be out of storage now and watch t.v. with us 😆.
@@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove I so need 1 minute of your time: *Questions:* 1. Do you ever use Polyacrylic to Seal you Chalk Paint Projects? Or other Varnish like Sealers? 2. I want to achieve a Painted Wall texture that has the look and feel of what is call "Linen Stock Paper", paper for letters that are of a higher quality stock than plain copy paper. It look like linen but paper, not to be confused with canvas material. - I was thinking: I could mix a thin version of home brew chalk paint, not watered down, but less mix of Plaster of Paris, in a Flat Acrylic or Laytex, and achieve a close outcome. Possibly even a suede finish. But Chalk Paints call for Wax to Seal, and this just would not work for walls, for me. I could use a semi-floss with the chalk additive and that might meet the need. I just don't want to take this on without the advice of an expert on Chalk Paint, a Sample Board might not be a strong resource for my concern. Please advise if you see this. Appreciate your time and your Channel. 😘 Beth Tennessee, USA.
Fantastic channel! I always thought of decoupage as some corny technique for leisure handcraft projects, but you certainly bring the best of it and I'm getting inspired by it.
Sometimes when I do these things even I panic but I suppose you have to just take that leap of faith…..🥴I have to remind myself that all of these things are fixable if they don’t work out
Beautiful! You have such amazing control! When you said you were going to add a keyline I thought right, wonder what size pot lid he’ll trace around. But off you went with the hand drawn then hand painted line-whew! Lovely lovely piece.
@@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove I’m slowly picking up vitally useful terms. Risk it for a biscuit going into my repertoire. Besides risk it for a cookie just doesn’t…
You're a fantastic teacher, Jonathon. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Love this project you are inspiring 😚
Some people just have a gift… I will continue to enjoy watching genius at work!

@@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove Well, thank you, very much appreciated.
Браво!! 👍
I have learned so much watching your videos and to blend the colors. I can't wait to try it on my own. You have given me a lot of inspiring ideas.
I am super pleased that this is helped and I’m wishing you all the very best for your project 🙏❤️😊
Turned out perfect.
This is beautiful just like all of your other creations!
I would love to find this decoapge paper
You have a great eye!
Splendid....how you can create the painted in areas to match is a bit mind-boggling. Beautiful finished side table.
Beautiful!!!
Great video
Beautiful
Absolutely love this. I watched you a long time ago, then lost you. Happy you are back. I’m going to try this soon! Happy painting!
It turned out beautiful!!! I was a little concerned about the key line at first…but it really does now look like the whole table top was hand painted.
Sometimes when I do these things even I panic but I suppose you have to just take that leap of faith…..🥴I have to remind myself that all of these things are fixable if they don’t work out
