    The goofs are my favorite part. Not only do you show how to fix it, you laugh about it. I did a 2 sided piece, with 1 side upside down. I chucked across the room! Lol You just giggle and fix it. Way to roll model! Lol I love your videos.😊

    Take Murphey furniture oil and pour enough in a container to cover the head of the brushes. Place your crusty brushes in the jar and your acrylic paints will come off. Use Dawn dish soap to remove the oil. Almost good as new. 😊😊😊

    I just love watching your videos. I have a suggestion. It worked for me. I had a huge bottle of elmers glue, i mixed a cup of glue, 2 cups of water. I put it in a large dollar tree container, dipped the pages of the book in it, making sure the cover didn't get glued. When i pulled the book out, letting excess drip out, i the put the book outside propping the book up. The next day the pages were evenly stuck together. Then i painted the outside. I used your mod podged method. It turned out great. No lumps and only took about 5 minutes to glue all the pages. It was messy, but i saved my glue mix for another day.

    If you brush on acrylic or chalk paint on your wooden feet first, it will cover much better. I brush paint onto all my wood before I spray paint. I get much better coverage without using so much spray.😮

    If you will take your wall paper and put your two pieces end to end then...... find a section that will match and cut each piece to match up..... and make a continuous piece then you can cover the piece with a continuous cover to make it cover without an unmatched section.

    Hiya!! Just a quick question: You use Tacky glue and hot glue, but you mentioned something about them "cancelling each other out". What did you mean by that? Thanks!! xo

    • @thediystruggle
      @thediystruggle  6 месяцев назад

      If you put one on top of the other instead of next to each other. The one will stick to one side and the other will stick to the other side.
      So say you put down hot glue.. what's sticking to your actual project if you put tacky glue on top of the hot glue? Not the tacky glue. That's sticking to the other side of your item prev3nting the hot glue from penetranting that side while the hot gluebis preventing the tacky glue from sticking to the other side.
      It also cools the hot glue. So, it's stops it from being as effective. I hope this helps make sense of it more.
      Just plop them next to each other. They will then work together instead of fighting their chemical makeup to create an adhesive bond!
