Fantastic Ornaments, Louise. Thanks for sharing.
Thank You Annie 😘so much for being here. I have a variety of styles if you want to check out my ornaments playlist, might give you some different ideas😉
Na matter whos idea this was , you painted these and taught us how. I don’t think I can ever pull osmonting off such as this but I am sure going to try. You are so gifted.
Thank you Linda😘, yeah, I couldn’t believe that person, and when I asked… of course no reply, but I always leave comments up so others can see who people really are! I appreciate your support 🧡
You wonderful teacher Louise ! Thorough with easy to follow tips & tricks along with proven results ! 🎉🎉
Thank you Penny, 😘that’s how I like to do it. Keep it simple, explanations clear, concise with demonstrated results. Share with your friends and help me grow!
Nicely created art work. Lovely art.❤🧡
Thanks so much Streetcats!💙🩵
I think that’s the strangest technique I’ve ever seen but they turned out amazing. That is gorgeous. I love the way the design just lays on the other putty knife. It’s amazing. I want to try it. It looks very messy but it turns out just gorgeous.
🤣😂I think these were my bloom transfers, loved them, better than straight blooming that ‘ran’, so fun too!!thanks for leaving your thoughts
Hi my friend +1❤
Hello 😊thanks for being with me💙🩵
Hi Louise I love these HEY I am doing some as well and bought a whole bunch of corks and picks and I bought all flat ornaments - you just beat me to it LOL - BUT I will use my drill to hold it - yay - I just love your tips and tricks :) your transfers turned out amazing, stunning pretty Louise - I love your blooms - they are always spot on perfect
Thanks Lori, yeah I had to get to it earlier this year because last year I started in November and I had trouble with figuring out how to do it so, the early bird catches the worm hopefully.🎄🎅🏼
@@LouiseMcKayArt It would not matter - yours are beautiful - so worm or not - they are a win win - love them
These are gorgeous! Love the idea of using corks. I've had issues trying to figure out a way to hold my ornaments. :)
Thanks Kim, 💕sometimes I have a good idea 💡
@@LouiseMcKayArt LOL!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Sherri😘…and so fun to make!
If I'll rich I'll buy all your ornaments for this coming Christmas. Really beautiful Dear Louise. Hope many will order that for you 🙏.
Thanks Nanete, doubt I’ll sell any, just for fun🧡🩵
Amazing!
Thanks Sharon!🩵💙
These are stunning!!!! I especially like the way you varnished them. Thank you for the inspiration for next year!
You betcha! 😘And thank you for watching and being here!
Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for all this teaching that you give… I have saved several of your videos as tutorials for me to look back and learn from step-by-step… I immensely appreciate that… And you’re freaking fabulous at what you create? It’s beautiful pieces beautiful work.
Thanks again 🧡Tina, glad I’m helping. Share my channel with your friends! Let everyone hopefully benefit, I’m trying to grow!!
Wonderful design, excellent !
Thank you, Pam😘, glad you enjoyed it. Check out my playlist as I have more ornaments and other creations separated out by categories.🧡
Louise you are so clever thinking about using a drill. These are adorable. ❤❤❤. I love the back of each.
Thanks Carolyn❤️🧡, the drill was a game changer for me and when I was first doing these, I was all nervous about the packet, not liking the way they were coming out, but then I just relax and let it just flow, and it made it to an ornament by itself!!
OH MY! Wow. Love this tutorial. I will say that I would name this Stary, Stary Night (from the song)! It reminds me of Picasso and his stary night painting!
Wow Lisa✨🌟I'm quite humbled!! Thank you!☺️
Louise, these are stunning!!! You make bloom transfers look easy!
They are when you’re not squeamish, just go for the gusto!!
i made one but i put all the colors on the ornament works out just as good and is faster
@@korneliaking131 great, glad this was a success!🧡
As always, you continue to amaze me! What is the varnish you’re using?
I’m going to try some of these ornaments so I can sell them and donate the money to the American Cancer Society
Thank you Michelle😘 and great idea! Best wishes especially for the Cancer Society!😘
You are an amazing improviser! Gorgeous ornaments!
Thank you, 😘Maggie, I live by if there’s a will, there’s a way🤣
Love your creative use of the drill. You inspire me to start my Christmas gifts!
Great Mary, 😘😘thank you for being here and I hope you subscribe. Your comment is the best😊Yes the drill was a game changer for me in terms of holding it steady and being able to move things around. I’ve never seen anyone else do it like that before but they do say that necessity is the mother of invention. Best wishes on your endeavors and check out some of my other ornaments or other other creations in my playlist.😊
Wow what an amazing talent there is no way it’s as easy as you make it look 😊 amazing
Thank you, Diane, it really means a lot because I know if somebody makes something look simple, it usually means they know what they’re doing. I know when I watch the Olympics I feel like I could do that lol no way no chance. But they make it look so easy. Everything takes a little practice to get it down. And for me, my thinking about things makes things more complex than they really are🤣
These are absolutely gorgeous❣️Thanks for sharing 😍
Thank you Barbara, glad you enjoyed them!💙🩵
So gorgeous
Thank you 💕
Beautiful awesome work💛❤❤💛❤💛❤💜❤💛❤💜❤❤💞❤💞💞❤
Thank you 💙🩵💙🩵💙
Thank you.
Thank YOU Debra!❄️💙
I’ve been racking my brain on how to do round and the flattened round ornaments, so this video is exactly what I needed. I’ve never done a bloom transfer, but you’ve inspired me to try it. The cordless power drill trick is genius! 🫶🏻
Thank you💙🩵. Necessity is definitely the mother of invention and that’s how I came to using the drill because the Styrofoam holder just was not working at all for me. The Bloom transfer is actually my favorite of all the techniques that I found doing this. Thank you so much for being here. I’m glad I helped.!
I like that varnishing technique too 🎉
Thanks Penny🧡, varnishing is easy, some people also resin these… I don’t see the need for that personally.
Absolutely stunning! Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Thanks so much Dana and you’re welcome!💕
I shall definitely be watching more and hopefully learning 😊so thank you for your time x
You bet Diane👍🏼
What an amazing creative soul you are!! Thanks for sharing 💓
Thank you so much Huong💙🩵
Stunning! You used my favorite colors!!!
Thanks, yeah, I’m Lovin getting the blues on💙😉
Thank you, I have done so many round ones just by pouring paint, love yours more than mine
Thank you Fran, 💙🩵and I think we all love others a little bit more than our own sometimes. But the ornament makes a huge difference and the technique it makes a huge difference. In my opinion, the Bloom transfer holds up (if you’re looking for cells), much better than a bloom straight on.
Gorgeous Louise! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much Diane🩵💙
Awesome and fantastic... Superb and fabulous... This looks amazing... Just superb performance👍👍 🎨✨
Thank you so much, I appreciate your support
These are stunning!! ❤❤❤
Thanks so much Terile❤️💙
Brilliant!! What an amazing creative soul you are!! Thanks for sharing 💓
Thanks so much for being here and you’re commenting!💕
Louise, your ornaments look so beautiful and magical, they remind me of Cinderella's iconic ball gown. This upcoming Saturday, I'm going to a Halloween costume party and contest in LaCrosse, I'm going as Cinderella's Prince Charming, and first prize is $700,000 USD, and a special dance with Cinderella, with Johann Strauß playing in the background for that special dance.
Thanks so much Byron, I’m glad you like the ornaments, that sounds like quite a costume party!🤴
Wow those are amazing 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you 🤗
Stunning 🤩 Louise! You really have the patience of a Saint! St Nicholas 😂 I love the backs, they’re gorgeous! Great job 👏🏻
Donna, you always crack me up😂 yeah, those backs, once I decided to go with the flow figuring these out, are like a reversible comforter! 2 in 1 ornament!!!
I hope you know I love the fronts too...should have made that clearer...😆but wanted to let you know those backs were lovely too! 😁@@LouiseMcKayArt
@@ItsArtByDonna thanks Donna, yeah 2 for 1 ornament as the rest will be too!
Thank you! These are gorgeous!
@@NinaHansen2008 thank you so much, Nina, 😀I have several creation videos of this ilk from last year. Maybe you’ll check out some of the others, they’re all done with the Bloom technique. Thank you so much for being here and leaving your.🧡 thoughts
Thanks Louise... I'll have to try your method... They turned out beautiful
Thanks so much Lori, more are coming!💙🩵
i dont know how you came up with this but its awesome
@@pauldejesus9644 hi Paul, I came up with this bc I wanted to bloom on these but didn’t like how the bloom held up so thought if I bloom flat, let it set then transfer, it would hold better and it did!
That is absolutely awesome
Thank you so much, 🩵💙more to come!
Love these they are gorgeous!
Thanks so much Juanita💙🩵🩵
Wonderful 😮❤ Truly appreciate your talent👏👍
Thanks so much Sophia 💙🩵
You do beautiful work
Thanks so much Kathy😘
THIS is GORGEOUS ❤🎉❤
Thank you Penny😘, I’m glad you’re enjoying these tutorials!
Really beautiful thank you so much ❣️
Thank you so much, 😘I guess you’re getting a jump on the season😉
It looks like you've done this a time or 50 lol. I saw them and was like, oh I have some of those glass ornaments, I'm just gonna make some. You've got some ingenuity goin on there! Love it!
LOL, my military and manufacturing background comes thru huh!😂 I’m always looking for a better more efficient way!! Thanks Vegas!😘
Your bloom transfers rock on the ornaments! Nice job! I love making ornaments. You beat me to the punch this year!! You will see mine soon :)
Thanks Angelia, you’ve been busy on the big fish! Last year I try to figure out how to do this and I started too late so this year I figured I better get going in October, and then figured I might as well do an entire series while I’m at it. I’ve learned so much, and I will say, with the bloom on ornament, I will give you acknowledgement because I started following you from them last year. And what do you mean, you’re everywhere!
I had to extend the big commission delivery. Hoping to be done with that by November 4th. Maybe I can get back to some normalcy. I am looking forward to Rock 'N' Pour with you and Lori next week. I miss you!!! If you are gonna be home the weekend of the 4th let me know. I will be driving through your area. xoxox!!
@@LouiseMcKayArt
Thank you for this video. I’ve been struggling with those pancake ornaments.
Thank you Doreen, I actually learned today they’re called discs lol, and in my opinion, they are probably the easiest to work with and get a really pretty ornament affect. If you check out my previous video 275, and part, one of the series, I cover, blooming on a flat little wooden piece, and that’s by for the easiest, but not the most gratifying! So check that one out if you wanna look for another option as well. I will also have a Straight Bloom on a disk coming up as the next part of the series!
Beautiful!
thank you 🧡Highroad😘
Stunning
Thanks so much, glad you’re here!💙🩵
Very beautiful colours, very nicely done!!!
Thank you Marga!💕
Beautiful. I have never painted or been very creative. My logical mind wants to know why you used the spatula instead of pouring directly into the ornament.
Hi Patricia, 😘and welcome. I thought I explained it in the video but maybe it was a different one. I did the Bloom transfer because the cells hold up better when I transfer it from the bachelor onto the ornament. With some of my other ornament creations were, I bloomed directly on the ornament as it starts to dry, start to kind of sag and lose their shape around the shape of the ornament. 🧡 good question.
@@LouiseMcKayArtI must have missed the explanation. 😣 sorry about that. Thank you for the reply.
I am inspired to try this myself. ❤️
@@pjsdragonfly no worries, I forget what I’ve said in these videos…
But this is fun and I definitely prefer the transfer, so give it a whirl!
Love it!
Thanks Michelle🧡
Amazing!!!
Thank you so much, I appreciate your support💙🩵
So cool!
Good, glad you liked. Check out my ornaments playlist for other Creation Videos : ruclips.net/p/PLD3gEym1bn-MOXsr6zlMMGYn7A4-R7uow&si=OFxtR9YBA1X173CX
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Thanks Jeanette❤️
Can I ask what happens if you do the bloom directly onto the baubles? These are so beautiful!
Hi Erika, one of my ornament creations from last season was a direct bloom on the ornament, I’ll try to link it. I’ll have to find it first. What happens is you blow out the bloom and then gravity takes hold of it and pulls it down and stretches it out, and my opinion, too much, let me see if I can find the video. Of course, it all depends on the look you’re going for, so you may like it better blooming directly on. I think this is it.: ruclips.net/video/1vlPJCpMLZ0/видео.htmlsi=hNhfTn-7BzG3P2MC
Awesome!!
Thank you Milli 💙🩵
Do u have a list of products you use. I’d love to see what glaze you use. It’s beautiful. Thanks
Hi Yagotta, 😘and Welcome…check In the description, I have lots of information there, but I used Liquitex Gloss Varnish with about 30% water mixture. Check my playlists too for more ornaments and other creations!!😘
Absolutely gorgeous ornaments! What kind of varnish do you use?
Liquitex high gloss varnish with water 80%: 20%. Thank you so much for being here and leaving your comments and questions Lorraine.😘
Well Tressie, that’s a problem bc white and red will always make pink. Hmmm. So I’m assuming you’re doing the bloom transfer. So is it in the dripping that problem really shows? Maybe do 1 side at a time by taping it half way down, transfer, let it dry, then flip it to do the other side, but not sure if taping fit the 2nd side wouldn’t take off the paint. How about one side of the bloom red/gold, the other side pearl and gold and hope the red/white stay away from each other during gravity. I’m still thinking….
These are stunning! When the paint meets underneath, is there a "drip" and if so, how do you deal with it?
Thank you 😘 in my later videos in the ornament series I cover show that but I basically take a toothpick and ‘coax’ the drip off. In the end there’s a small nipple but it looks fine.
This video was soo helpful Louise! I just received about 100 of these ornaments and have been practicing different techniques to paint them. Question: where do you get the little cork stoppers that you put in the ornament? Thank you very much for sharing! These are all beautiful!!🤗💕
Thanks so much Tressie. 🤎🧡As far as the cork stoppers go, I’ve been smart if I went to a bar lol. However, you can pick them up a little packs at Home Depot in the screws and bolts section.
@@LouiseMcKayArt That’s awesome! Thank you for such a quick response! So are they just regular size wine bottle corks? If so, I shamelessly have a large selection of those that I’ve saved over the years. Lol🤭💕
Hi Louise, I really enjoy your videos they have so much good content. On these ornaments are you using your drill skewers that connect into your corks? Your very creative with making things work :). I’ve done ornaments but have never been successful. I’m going to try again with your transfer method .. thank you for your videos, I appreciate them❤
Hi Debbie, yes, my corked skewers are secured into the drill, not that I expect everybody to have a drill laying around, but I had it and it’s much better in my opinion then sticking a skewer into Styrofoam that just doesn’t stay stable.
@@LouiseMcKayArt thank you for your response .. I also have a drill in my art room, that’s why I’m so interested in this idea. Looks like the skewer stay pretty steady in the drill. Your ornaments make beautiful Christmas gifts.
@@DebbieStephens874 thanks, yes, the skewers stays steady in the cork in the cork stays secure in the ornament hole so it all works out. I used to do woodworking. That’s why I have some of these tools.
Beautiful! Do you let each ornament dry while its still attached to the drill? Thank you, Elaine
Thanks and good question. I stick the stick thru rungs on my shelves and let them drip into a little plate below until dry. Very slapped together, but works. I can’t leave them otherwise I’d get really backed up
Louise… help, please! 😊 I keep watching this video over and over and I just can’t quite figure out what I’m doing wrong but here’s the issue I’m having: I have an order for, Red, Gold and Pearl White! I can do these in every other color but no matter how many reds or different reds I add, as they start to drip, they always turn to pink! 🤦🏼♀️ I have 4 days left to complete this order but if I can’t get it figured out, for the first time ever, I’ll have to call the client and tell them I just couldn’t do it. 😢 ANY suggestions would be so greatly appreciated!! THANK YOU MY FRIEND!!❤
Did you resolve the problem, curious. Merry Christmas🎄
@@LouiseMcKayArt Yes, I actually did!! The first thing I did was, used Sherwin Williams Color to Go in Tricorn Black as my “Pillow paint” and then I used 2 CA’s in Gold and White! Just cutting out some of the whites against the reds, really helped! Thank you again for sharing all your tips and tricks and helping us to make beautiful pieces!
@@TreesieParadisArt brilliant solution, didn’t even think to use Black!
i like to use a straw to blow
Great, that works too, I use that for finishing touches!
She’s doing a whole other thing, but Some good ideas on how to apply base coat, etc
Thank you so much, it’s amazing how seeing something even if it’s not related exactly to what you’re doing can help and what you are doing🧡🧡
@@LouiseMcKayArt right.
Beautiful, question once you put the paint on do you dry it hanging on the drill?
Thank you, 🩵💙 no because that would totally stop my production, I’ll show in an upcoming video because it’s kind of a jerryrigged set up with my shelving where I stuffed it in the shelves overhanging and let it dry😅 others have asked so I need to address the question
These are beautiful! What are you using for varnish?
Thank you, i think I said in the varnish part …. Now I need to check. Liquitex high gloss varnish
Love it! May I ask what varnish to you use? Water base?
Hi Holly, Varnish: Liquitex High Gloss with water 80% varnish:20 % water
Next question I just thought of.... Are the bulbs glass or plastic?
@@hollyelliott3009I don’t remember, I think plastic from Hobby Lobby
Hola buenas días 👈 🛎 👍 😊 🙂
hola gracias por estar aquí
Hello! I’m wondering what spinner you are using for the ornament. I clicked the link in the description but it was for the cake spinner :)
@@FionaHill-k8b that’s it, cake spinner, love it!
@@LouiseMcKayArt ah ok! Thank you! I was thinking you were talking about what you were using to turn the ornament. Is it a drill?
@@FionaHill-k8b oh geez, 😂😂😂I’m so used to talking about the regular spinner lol. Yes it is a drill that I used to turn the ornament. It worked great. State level, stable, didn’t have to worry about anything falling over like Styrofoam.
@@LouiseMcKayArt Thank you!!
@@LouiseMcKayArt It looks like it works great! is that a skewer with.a piece of cork?
What exactly is ur recycled scrap paint
While painting I’ll scoop up what spins off, put it into a container, strain it later for reuse.
what kind of varnish are you using?
Liquitex high gloss, I’m pretty sure I say during varnish, I’m gonna check now
What is the varnish?
Linda, I use Liquitex gloss varnish with water at an 80:20 ratio
@@LouiseMcKayArt thank you so much! I love your videos and your enthusiasm. I am a newbie and decided to finally gift a whirl after several years! Thanks
