Love the fact you are a down to earth person, the vast majority of art n crafters posting on you tube clearly have the money to buy expensive products that the rest of us can't afford. More of these money saving suggestions please.
I have used your technic and worked like a charm. I printed beautiful picture downloaded from free online library. As I didn't have any masking tape I have used repositioning spray adhesive which I have ages at home. I sprayed a small amount of this on to normal printing paper. After printing removed printed layer, this botom one stayed on paper (still good to use next time). I love your idea to print on kitchen towels - they are much better to apply - no wrinkles or bubbles without using water or brayer. Thank you for sharing your idea, its marvellous and not expensive. Thank you 😊 Agata from UK
I think you're fantastic . . . and genuine! The image you chose is gorgeous! You're right . . . so many tutorials out there require expensive products. Thank you for sharing this. I'm happy to have found you!
This is soooooooo exciting!!!!!.. you know I have the silly expensive glues but why use them when good old masking tape does the trick!... and love the paper towel roll as well!!! Saving money and still getting a wonderful product is absolutely wonderful!!!... thank you so much for taking the time too help other penny pinching crafters!
WOW; Thanks for this; I have just started up-cycled furniture and am a designer for craftsuprint, but have just spent ages looking for printed napkins, none that I liked; Now thanks to you I can design my own; Magic xx
this is such a great idea, thank-you for sharing it with us, it means now I can put any design off the pc onto the kitchen roll, Ive recently set up a craft and upcycling buisness and Im working from home so I'm trying to save time and money wherever I can so I will definitely be trying this out. plus when You buy a pack of napkins 9/10 times you only use a few and then the rest are left and they can be expensive, or you end up using the same designs that everyone else is using, I like unique different ideas. Thankyou so much for sharing!!xx
Wow! I just came upon this video while looking for info on crafting with napkins. I want to thank you. I so wish you were still doing crafting videos. You are so real and genuine your straight to the point. Thank you I'm subscribed and plan to view alot of your yt videos
Thanks so much sweetie I intend to come back very soon just needed time away for moving and problems with my disability witch is a lot better now so will be back soon xx
I waited too long to purchase personalized napkins for my upcoming wedding. This video allowed me to print my own personalized napkins. Thank you so much, from Florida!
You just saved me £47.80,I was just about to buy a shed load of Paper napkins and Rice Paper to try out decoupage when I came across your video, Bravo, well done, it just shows we are more resourceful than we know ! Thanx for sharing
Hi, I am everso slightly late to this party! Can you recommend the best kitchen roll to use. I realise they need to be 2 ply, white and with the least amount of embossing. Can any suggest precise products that they have had success with. thank you
Wow why didn’t I think of that. I’ve been searching everywhere for napkins with certain designs and paying a fortune. Thanks so much for sharing. A tip for you to separate the 2 ply is to put a small piece of sellotape on the back, pull it up and it it rips the 2 ply so you can separate it easier. I use this method once I’ve cut my shape out.
Oh wow thanks for sharing this, it's brilliant idea. I use PVA glue out of pound shop mixed with water to decoupage with. Topped with a coat of Matt varnish out of B&M. TFS
Thank you so much for your comment. I have pva glue and mod podge i just need to get varnish but they sell it in the pound shop so im happy with that lol. This is the first time i have done a box in this style so fingers crossed it comes out ok. TFW hugs xxxxx
You should also be able to iron the kitchen roll piece to card or paper using cling wrap as adhesive or iron kitchen roll to the shiney side of freezer paper, so you can run it through a printer.
Fab idea Donna! I've done it this way before using regular tissue paper but wouldn't have thought to use kitchen roll! I guess you could also use the spare layers from napkins too.Well done you! Tfs. Hugs,Dee xxx
I havent gotten all the way through the video but I am wondering what the bottom sheet is? The harder plastic?one I know you said, but i didnt understand. Sorry. I will be finishing the video now. Thank you!
hi there, i was wondering what printer you used please as i have a rear fed printer and not a front one, the trouble i'm having is it creases up and then i have black ink transfer in the creases!
Genius!!!! Can’t wait to try it! Thank you for this tutorial money is tight and I so wanted to do this so I’m so thankful you made this tutorial & Made My Day!!!!!
OMG!! Thank you so much . 8ve not tried Decoupage yet but did have an idea in mind for using photos . Firstly I thought we would have to use a laser printer, read that somewhere . After watching tutorials using glues and sprays , you video came on. A huge thumbs up . Thank you so much for sharing. Also in my pj's 😁😁 Xx
Had a good laugh at this video - I'm watching you talking about sitting there in your pjs while I'm sitting here in my pjs. And I had to subscribe to your channel, just to get you up to an even number - I think you're terrific!
You are awesome! I just saw one of the videos featuring the special spray and thought to myself 'I don't want to spend money on all kinds of crap - I just want a simple solution' and yours was the second video I watched - and now I've subscribed to your channel!
You could do this on plain white napkins you can get from the cheap shop too, thanks so much for this, I am often faced with this problem with my crafting being on a pension doesn't allow for expensive supplies xo
Hello luv, Omg I just came across your tutorial on how to make napkins! And I want to thank you so much!! I to don't have the money to buy these costly products!! And this is AMAZING. Will be doing the same. Can't find napkins that I like or they too are expensive, for just a little project. Thanks ever so...Hugs Debbie
I want to say a huge THANK YOU!! 😍 😍 Your idea just save my last £10 pounds. Your are amazing Lady!!! Thank you so much! 😘 Now I can use my own pictures and transform them in napkins. omg... Thank you! 😘
Thank you so much for sharing this, I really needed this because I live in Denmark and we don't have those pretty napkins, we only have modern or cartoonish ones. We don't have freezer paper either,and I can't seem to find any spray glue that isn't permanent. So thank you so much. I will be trying this out. Love and big hugs from Denmark :)
Just stumbled across this video - excellent 'outside the box' thinking! Thanks for the idea. PS: You're making the video in your PJs, I'm watching the video in my PJs - all OK by me!
Hi I've never had it bubble but I always go from the middle out to the edge with the glue. You can only but try it's not going to be perfect for every one but it works for a lot of ladies and saves a lot of money. TFW hugs xx
New Subbie here, what a great idea - well done you! I have tried this with just plain tissue paper but never thought of using kitchen roll as this gives you even more texture as they are already embossed. Love your idea TFS x
Hi as long as you don't go to heavy with the glue it should be fine. I wouldn't recommend using them for anything else other then decorating. TFW hugs xx
Genius! This is going to save me a fortune I hope, I only have a cheap Epson inkjet printer and I use compatible inks because a set of Epson ink cartridges cost almost what I paid for the printer. Some images don't come out very well, will be trying this tomorrow so fingers crossed. Either way, thank you for this brilliant idea, will be subscribing and looking forward to watching the rest of your videos. Btw, I'm usually in my nightie until around lunchtime 🤗 xx
I adore a dicoupage but .. someone told me that the essue maybe burn in my printer and i need a spcially printer for this work .. is that right ? thanks a lot
Mesa Mesa Hello Hun I have watched loads of videos where ladies do this I have an all in one hp envy printer and it's fine on that so not to sure you could look at other videos and see if any one mentioned it Hun TFW hugs xxxx
I've been doing the same thing with the backing of napkins but found the colour wasn't very intense. Just tried this with 2 ply kitchen towel & ño where near as vibrant as yours. I have a HPEnvy printer, what printer do you have?
Love the fact you are a down to earth person, the vast majority of art n crafters posting on you tube clearly have the money to buy expensive products that the rest of us can't afford. More of these money saving suggestions please.
TYFS- That’s Fantastic! I also Love that your cat knows how to open the door! Hope that you are staying safe 😷!
Brilliant! Just imagine printing old family photos onto the paper towel and using them for decoupage without damaging/cutting them. TFS ger x
I know hun its a great idea and for parties do your own personalized napkins you could use them for so much. TFW hugs xxx

Brilliant, thanks for that, clever you 👏
Excellent
Awesome idea! Thank you for sharing with us!!
I’m loving this absolutely fab, I want to do this will it go on a candle as good as napkin paper......

Love your money saving tips. So many art n craft supplies are way too expensive.
are you using a flat bed printer? If so, which one as I have no idea about printers. Thanks
Hi did you use a lazer printer or a normal printer ty x. Love your idea it will be so much cheaper x
Hi just used a standard ink jet printer xx

Lisa Jarvis hi hunnie thanks for subbing. Hope you enjoy my videos TFW hugs xxxx

savion starks123 I think so hun but you could always look at other videos on here if your not to sure TFW hugs xx
You used the emboss napkin. Will it appear or make a bubble when you decoupage the napkin into a media?
Hi I've never had it bubble but I always go from the middle out to the edge with the glue. You can only but try it's not going to be perfect for every one but it works for a lot of ladies and saves a lot of money. TFW hugs xx
Awesome! Thanks so much for this wonderful idea!
Excuse my ignorance but where do you get your images/photos to print? Do you download them on your computer?
I get a lot of mine off Google, Pinterest or etsy
Amazing idea 😉
wont the ink bleed when you decoupage it onto something?
I wondered this??
New Subbie here, what a great idea - well done you! I have tried this with just plain tissue paper but never thought of using kitchen roll as this gives you even more texture as they are already embossed. Love your idea TFS x
What kind of printer do you use? I have an old up that feeds from the bottom. Thank you!!!
Love this! Thank you so much. Can you do another tutorial showing your napkin on yr box and how you apply it? Brilliant

Awesome!!! Great idea...and I do my best work in my PJ's :)
Thank you I love cheap craft ideas
Wow, that’s really neat. Thanks for the video. Definitely going to try that today. Janice in TN
Can I ask if the ink runs when it gets wet. Also, is it safe to wipe your mouth with. Great idea. Thanks for sharing.

Genius!!!! Thank you ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Omg that is awesome. Thanks for sharing this.
