Hi, I use nails just because it is convenient for me. I would think thumbtacks should work, especially the ones that are a little longer so you have a little more “bite”. I have used a staple gun as well just make to put those in lightly.
I wanted to know how to do this so watched to the end. Very informative. Thank you. I will be following your method. However, you need to edit the carpet tack hammering in thing. Carpet tack hammering in is not the most scintillating thing in your film. Soz love
That has to be the most ridiculous video I've seen! No explanaTion of what is being done let alone being able to see what is done until the video finishes
@@dayrosenberg9944 Hi Day. I didn't intend any disrespect towards you in anyway. We're professional picture framers in the UK & I felt strongly that your video made some fundamental errors. What happens for instance if the dyes used in the needlework were to run? We would never advocate soaking a needlework in the way that you did. You might have been lucky! Blocking is a necessary step in a lot of needlework before lacing, but I would never advocate the techniques used in this instance. All the best!
No grid or rt angle markers. How can you be sure it will be exactly squared?
I don't see grid marks on your board. How do you know it's shaped properly?
I have found with handcrafting sometimes by Eye is the best way. Best!
@@dayrosenberg9944 oh that's so funny, I can tell that you don't have an astigmatism 😀
This is super helpful - thank you! Do you always use nails, or are tacks strong enough?

Do not use water! Those red colors fibers could run and ruin the hours put into the beautiful project
Thank you! Good Coaching!
this was very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
How's about just using some T50 staples?
That can absolutely work, just make sure you put them in lightly or else you could damage your mesh trying to pull them out. Good luck!!
@@dayrosenberg9944 Understood. Good point, and thank you.

What kind of nails did you use?
Hi, I used very skinny finishing nails- skinny enough to easily go through the mesh, enjoy!
Awesome. Thank you...
You're welcome!
