445. Lazy Susans are Top Sellers! Acrylic Painting Tutorial w/Important talk about Paints!

- Опубликовано: 1 янв 2025
- Hi Everyone,
Thank you for joining with another Lazy Susan. Always TIPS shared!! I spend a good amount of time clarifying about my recipes and paints and why it's important to use the correct paints!
If you want to create more, create these, create Functional Art that SELLS. Seriously! Or, with family gatherings on the horizon, create one to show your friends and family or to give as a gift!!
These are bread and butter. Unfortunately I've been having problems with warping on my most recent October order from IKEA and I've been exploring other sources that are sustainable for me in Asheville NC.

Louise, this is the first video I’ve seen where someone explains the paints. It’s so clear now. Thank you! And of course, your lazy Susan is gorgeous… they all are gorgeous and can see why you can’t keep your art in stock!
Hi Lauren, 😘I’m so glad I took the time to share this as I haven’t taken much time getting to the basic level. The only reason why I brought it up is because I had several people in the last couple months. Tell me they were following my recipe, but their paints were returning pastel so I knew they weren’t really, so I figured I better just put out an all points broadcast to everybody explaining how the pouring medium works and what paint you have to use. So glad it’s helpful!!!♥️♥️♥️
The most beautiful lazy Susan’s Louise! Lovely colors in this😎✨stunner!
Thank you so much, Donna, it’s amazing what you can find on your phone after a few months! Totally forgot I had this video, glad I could finally delete it😘😘 and free up some space💙💙😅😅
As always, Louise, you hit this out of the park. Beautiful color combination again. You are a master of these lazy Susans.🧡🖤
Thanks so much Carefree!😘I pretty taking your time to be with me!🖤🧡🩶
Good morning friend Absolutely gorgeous work really amazing thanks for sharing friend 👍
Hi Ronak, 😘thank you so much for being here and always your support, my friend💙💙💙
I have MS and I love this type of art. I have studied the Shelee bloom techniques, but because of your comprehensive explanation, I FINALLY GET IT. Thank you thank you thank you 😊
Thank YOU Georgia! 😘😘Please feel free to share this sentiment to anyone, I really do take pride and take time to explain things the way I would’ve wanted them explained it to me when I was first starting out. I’m so glad it’s been helpful to you and hopefully many others.😘
Your talent just spreads across each piece with brilliance & grace 😊 Thank you so much for sharing, Louise! ❤
@@m3minez305 m3 🧡🤍thank you so much for being here and lending your support and nice comments!😘
@LouiseMcKayArt always a pleasure! 🥰
Louise, you are truly the master of Lazy Susan art. 🤗🤗🤗 My Christmas spirit is very contagious and filled with Disney magic. 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you Byron and you are a knowledge pool for everything Disney! So glad we’re friends 😉😉😉♥️
Louise stunning as usual! Yes, it is functional, but it is a true work of art!
@@DebbiePagtalonia thank you Debbie😘😘😘, I’m a big believer in giving a purpose to are or beautifying a functional piece🌟
Beautiful dear Louise! Such a calming video and watching you more little tips sunk in. Love you ❤
@@Marie-LouiseArt thank you so much, 🧡🧡my friend. I really appreciate you being here and all of your support here and everywhere.😉😘Love you too♥️
Louise, you have such a knack for digging into your way of building your paintings. Your voice over's are great, especially when you are knowing, when to add reference to how and why you are doing what you are doing, from what paint we should use to get the results you are getting. I love your ability to go back, and remember something you maybe thought of, to explain to us now, so we get the same or even better results 🤗☺❤ Love this one so much!!
Thanks so much, 😘😘Jude. It was at the last minute I decided to add all the voiceovering about the paints and the mixtures in which paints to use because recently I’ve had several people tell me they’ve been following my recipe, but they’ve been getting pastel and washed out colors And I’m thinking to myself. There’s no way you’re following my recipe if you’re getting that result. So I decided I better say something and in fact, there was one person that wrote from this creation how they had the same problem and it turned out that when Home Depot sent them the paint they sent them the wrong paint. So I’m glad I said something and hopefully save other people more problems. Sometimes when you’ve done things for so long, you forget to cover the foundation, and that’s a little bit what today was. Thank you so much Jude for being here again.🖤🧡

Thanks for explaining things so well and sharing your specific recipes ❤
Thanks Julie, the recipes have always been available, video 140 PM and video 141 CA and shared in my descriptions, just put it all together with several ppl lately saying they followed my recipe to get pale results only to find out they used the wrong paints, just making it clear and in 1 place!
I absolutely love the colors in this. It is just gorgeous❣️
Thank you so much, Carrie, I really appreciate your comment😘
Beautiful lazy susan! You also shared invalueble tips that I truly appreciate!!! It is clear to me why it is so important to use the Glidden 6413N or Valspar. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge with us!
Thanks Nicie😘 Yes, the paint definitely matters and I’m glad this is helpful. 🧡🤍

Beautiful color combo!!! And as always, great tips throughout.
Thanks August, this palette always wins!!!
Very beautiful painting! Friendly regards!
Hello Top Mallorca, 🧡🧡I appreciate you being here, this is a lazy Susan and I do lots of these type types of creations with functional Art. Thank you 😘
This is absolutely gorgeous, Louise!! You have the most amazing color palettes! 😍🤩😍
Thank you so much😘, Bill, I had to think that working many years at Graphic Packaging international as quality manager fielding customer complaints for colors, I’ve learned a thing or two about colors, variation, and combinations. Who to thought working in manufacturing would help here.😂
So beautiful, I keep watching and learning and working up my nerve to try it myself. Thanks
Gina, 😘thank you so much. I appreciate your support. The best way to get over your nerves just decide to go for it. It’s a simple decision. Just decide “I’m going to try this.” I might suggest you start on something smaller if you haven’t already and work your way up to this.😉
Love these colors, another beautiful piece & great tips as usual. Thanks Louise
Thank you Anita, 😘trying to put the word out there where it’s missing!!
@LouiseMcKayArt i recommend that people watch your channel all the time. You give great tips & actually show people what you're doing & you tell them why you're doing it
@@anitapotter2586 thank you again, I appreciate your support😊
Thanks for explaining about Base C paint. Very appreciative of you and your channel!
Thanks Paws😘🧡, yes, lately I’ve been getting a lot of people asking why their paints have turned to pastel, and sometimes I just don’t even think about sharing the beginner information I just take it for granted. But yes, it’s very important to know you need a base three or base C paint for your pouring medium. So many little things can trip people up with his technique.🤞🤞
What a coincidence! I was just mixing paints for a pour, and they were all fading out. Getting frustrated, I was just taking a break and saw this video become available and you solved my problem immediately! I just checked my paint for the pouring medium and it is not what I ordered! The local Home Depot will not let you order or ship a base paint online… You have to go get it. Although I ordered the 6413N, they shipped me 6411, so I’ll be calling them about a refund. Just picked up the right base and will try again. Thank you so much for going back over this… The recipes have been the hardest part of getting started with all of this.
Wow, 😘great sharing and glad I took a little extra time to cover this in this video. So glad to help at a fortuitous time!
Louise, this is stunning!
Thanks so much Jerelyn! So glad you’re here!😘😘😘🧡🤍
Thank you for sharing in such detail and your recipes! This is stunning. So helpful to us beginners just trying to figure out colors and styles.
Thanks Kim 💙😘glad to help and remember that my pouring medium recipe and how I make it as in video 140 and American Floetrol Cell are activator recipes video 141, both are definitely worth looking at to see how I create them and the consistencies I’m looking for once I’ve created them.💙
@LouiseMcKayArt i will do that and write down the recipes before heading to Home Depot or Amazon!
Wow that's definitely amazing painting
Thank you JHoe😘I appreciate your support!😘
This is fabulous, Louise.
Thanks Holly, I’ve missed you😘🧡🧡
wow so beautiful Louise
Thank you so much Antara 😘
Soo pretty Louise! ❤️
Thanks so much VJ😘💙
Absolutely stunning piece, Louise. Your videos are always so full of amazing information. I’m just about out of my old Behr 8300, so this recipe will really come in handy.
Hi Pattie😘, you’ll find the Glidden 6413 and Valspar 833124 very very very different from the Behr 8300!
Trying to find out about the warping? This is beautiful!
Hi Rebecca, I shared it in my community section of my RUclips channel. If you want to check community, you’ll see pictures and my comment.
Gorgeous!!!
Thanks Charlene😘
So beautiful.
Thank you Alpa😘😘😘🧡
Beautiful sharing
Hi Sidras 😘and Welcome I appreciate you being here!!
Love this!
Thanks so much Rebecca😘
Beautiful
Thank you Eunia😘
Wood will warp if all sides are painted. The wood needs to breathe. I always leave the btm un painted until it done and varnished. That has worked.
@@flipperc6042 same with me for two years and then it changed. It would be one thing if from the get-go I had to trouble, but for two years, I’ve varnished one time one side the top and poured on it and was no problem now no matter which way I go it doesn’t work. That’s the frustrating part something changedon the product side and I can’t figure out how to get around it.
Thanks
Thanks so much Gina, a tip for tips!😘😘😘💙 I truly appreciate your generosity and thoughtfulness 😘💙
Awesome, another Lazy Susan!!!
Thank you, Sam Amster actually it’s been almost a month and a half since I posted a Lazy Susan because I’ve had such trouble with them lately😲
@ Oh man, I’m sorry about the trouble.
@@PunmasterSTP yeah, warp and nothing a Star Trek way!
Awesome
Thank you 😘Jasper and Welcome!😊
Louise very beautiful 😍
Gerri😘😘😘
❤❤
Thanks so much Ann😘😘
I love how this one looks like magma boiling up. ❤
Thank you, Kim🧡🖤🩶, didn’t even see that, but I think you’re onto something with that observation😘
I can't help but wonder how it would look with a metallic paint pallet.
Hi Ozwald, 😘hope all is going well with you. In this one, most of the paints are metallics and actually I did one today that was all metallic except for the black. The metallics play well together for sure. I hope all is well for you as we near the holidays and take care😊
Hi Louise, I have the same spinner you have, but do you have a video, or can you show how you added the boars or sticks to ir to create the handles?
Hi MrsH, this lazy Susan is actually from Winterstromart. Jessica Winstrom when she was here in Asheville for the fluid art experience, gave it to me when she left, so you can check with Jessica at WinstromArt to purchase one for yourself.
@LouiseMcKayArt ah! Ok thanks. I know from other videos that we have the same heavy duty silver spinner from Amazon.
Thank you for the information. Blooms are not my friend currently.
Thanks Judi and straight pours have never been my friend either!😅
You are so generous with your tips. I'm brand new to pouring and have a bare wood circular tray available. When you say you varnish the item, what type of varnish do you use? I'm sure I need to seal this tray first with something before pouring, right?
Thanks Laura😘 probably any varnish I use matte because it’s an extra varnish I have. You may want to see my Lazy Susan full creation video for this… ruclips.net/video/My7Tbj_D9U4/видео.htmlsi=KVUoqUvNKwHXFJsD
although up to this point, I’ve been using a chisel to clean the back when I was done resigning, you may want to use an X-Acto blade. It works much better.
@louise McKay Art I found 12 1/2 glass Lazy Susan’s with Nutcrackers on them for $8 at Dollar General. I used some nail polish remover and the nutcrackers came off. Any advice or thoughts on pouring on glass?
Also, I found them in the Christmas in the middle of the stores. It was a fluke to discover because it seems mist store only got 1 or 2. I was able to get 4.
Hi Miss C 😘I don’t think I’ve ever been to a Dollar General. I don’t even know where there is one. I’ll look around. Sounds like an interesting opportunity. I have caught on glass a long time ago and found no difference. Obviously you have to be very careful since it is more fragile than a canvas or wood.
Damn 🤦♀️🤦♀️. Your comment on varnishing the back to prevent warping made me slap my forehead 😂😂😂. That explains why this happens to me 😂. I have had to wait a couple of weeks for it to dry then turn upside down with a weight on it . This is the only way I could flatten it out 😂😂😂😂
Hi Diana, I’m not saying that varnishing the back is going to help because I’ve done two of them where it’s warped on me, but I’m still going to try something else tomorrow and I’ve been in the meantime found some alternatives from other places like TJ Maxx. I’ve also had one that warped that unwarpedover time, so we’ll see where the story ends
@ Louise , it occurred to me that the pieces that have warped could not have been 100% solid wood . I looked at the wood I purchased at Home Depot and I didn’t have any issues 🤷♀️.
@@Diana-ft7vl I just tried another IKEA Lazy Susan today after priming it with Kilz spray primer and eight hours later it still looks OK so I’ll keep my fingers crossed
What is in the pillow???
The pillow in this is PPG Multipro 47-3110 house paint only!
A little off topic, but when you buy your ppg multi pro, do you have them shake it? Same question for your PM Valspar. I'm thinking no to avoid bubbles.
NOOOOO, never shake it!!!!! Never shake anything, gently stir. And actually, once I have my pillow paint, decanted, I don’t ever stir it again, I use it up before I need to reconstitute. The less stirring or mixing the better. And certainly never ever ever ever ever shake. You will never get the bubble out of the pillow.
@LouiseMcKayArt lol, thank you 😊 pretty sure that was going to be NO.
Help me get the setup you have for spinning
I checked Amazon and it is a 12" spinner. I need the handles so I can spin my canvas. Please help me
Hi Kathleen, yes when I have LinkedIn, the description is my normal 12 inch aluminum round spinner. The spinner is from Jessica WintersStrom at WinterstromArt. If you go to her RUclips channel, you can ask her how to purchase one of those spinners with the wooden arms.
Beautiful piece. Louise are these functional too? I heard it’s not safe to cut food on resin, what’s your experience?
Hi Boston butter, 😘these are definitely functional as a Lazy Susan. These are not intended to be used as cutting boards and you wouldn’t want to cut on them anyway because it’s resin and it would get ruined. That’s why I also made cutting boards have a partial decorative area with fluid art that is resined and also a wood portion that is unencumbered.
@ Thanks for taking the time to explain Louise- I super appreciate it! Have an amazing day doll. 🙂
Food safe?
Yes
