I only have so many ways to say how creative you are, and I will say that over and over!!! I watch all of your videos, and appreciate it when you have found a better way to be creative on wood. So the most important thing I can say is…Thank you so much for your creativity and wonderful videos!!!
Awww thanks so much Jodi . I really appreciate that. I have no idea how I come up with some of these ideas but always happy to share and brighten up some ones day with a new crating technique .... but dont ask me for any cooking videos hahah
@@OurUpcycledLife Jodi expressed my sentiments as well! Ur def Top Five best content creator on RUclips and your trials n hard work are appreciated more than u could ever know! The sign from tabletop in woods changed my life! Thx 4 sharing ya'llz upcycled life with us!
That is such a cool technique! I volunteer at our local youth centre and I'm definitely going to do the painting technique with them. I have some Terra Cotta pots I want to decorate for spring and this will be a great way to do it.
I hate to keep saying how addicted I am to your videos and the content, but it’s worth repeating! You are so creative and talented. I subscribe to many DIY, Crafting and Upcycling channels, but YOU are one of my favorites.
At my youngest daughter's 11th birthday party they did this on Christmas ornaments. I still have the ones both of my daughters made. Each guest took home the ornaments they made. That was 25 years ago. It's a fun to do.
I really enjoy that you make''artwork''non stressful that imperfections are ''perfect''. I love the ''no waste'' of any artwork too..Thank you,you make my ''beginners crafting" experience ''no stress,just go what you feel"
You are amazing!!! I love how you come up with different ideas 💡 I work with Alzheimers patients and I’m definitely going to do this painting technique with them!! They will love it. Thank You for sharing!!
This is one technique I haven't ever seen before. I love learning new ways to up my crafting game. The second sign gave me more fall vibes with colors you chose. Thank you for sharing.
This is my favorite way to paint. I spray my paint with water and then after I have the Saran Wrap on, I then spray my Saran Wrap with water so it spreads easier, your fingers glide on top if you spray the wrap with water and it doesn’t pull the Saran Wrap.. The paint I use, the water activates the paint, I have never used acrylic paint so I’m not sure about spraying water on it but I might try it and see how it works. Love that you’re sharing this, a lot of people probably don’t know about it. I love all your DYI’s.
This technique on a larger scale is used on walls, wainscots, furniture tops, boxes etc. The mediums used are unlimited. Also any clear or translucent plastic sheeting or even a piece of Lucite or glass can be used.This includes cut up plastic grocery bags and for wall surfaces, Visqueen or drops. The selection of tools lends variety as well. The flat of one's palms to brayers to roller frames with short knap sleeves to pouncing brushes Marbling effects can be done with palettes of suitable colors by applying streaks instead of dots and dabs. Paints etc, can also be applied to the ""plastic" instead of the substrate. Layering is also used. A second color superimposed over a ground color or even a second or third color glaze is employed. Monochrome a/o polychromes are also interesting effects.
Wow! You have alot of great tips and knowledge. Do you have a channel? Would love to learn form you :) Thanks for taking the time to share . Have a great day
Oh my gosh! I LOVE this technique! The color blends are totally awesome and those signs look so professionally done! Actually, I doubt you could find something that beautiful at a department store! You’ve impressed me again with another one of your incredible tutorials! Thank You! ❤️
Soo Cool 😎, thanks I've even watched most ur Tubes in past to help me learn more great ideas cuz I'm a newbie in my 60s never too late!! Lol 😆 thanks gurl, Kathylyn from N Mississippi 😘
Love your videos I learn something new. Do sell small tranfers, it's expensive buy tranfers when you only need 1 tranfer. Thank you for your time, Lisa
Thanks for watching Lisa. No I don't sell transfers . I do sell the graphics I use for my signs though . Here is the link: www.etsy.com/ca/shop/OurUpcycledLife
😱🤩OmG!.... thanks for making these!... 😍❤They turn out so beautiful. 🤗❤I want to make them, I know my Florida people are going to love them!.. This technique is amazing, thanks for sharing!. Edit: Please, can you make a video on how you cut your arrows, and power tool that we need for wood crafting. That would be super helpful, I want buy some and I would love to hear your recommendations on which ones would be great for starting.
@@OurUpcycledLife yay!... Great, thanks!. 😅And I thought so too, specially when we are beginners, right know I want to go and buy every tool I see. But, I since I'm watching all your videos I saw a Jig saw and a small triangle sander and that's what I'm getting for now. 🙏🏾 Thanks for inspiring me. I can't wait to have my 🤰🏾👶🏽💓baby and start making projects for home 🥰
Hi Deidre .... this is realy neat .... I have been wondering if you have any ideas how to use pallet of wood? I have access to these all the time at my work and hate to see them being thrown in the dumpster ..... thank you
Hi Kim!! I love using pallet wood to make signs. Perfect size too make a direction arrow. Did you see this video? ruclips.net/video/6avjNZX4imA/видео.html
I love that paint method and I am certainly gonna try it. However. I have tried the regards sign thing you did with the printer. It does not work so well for me. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. At one point it looks like there’s still paper on there. And I keep going and then about to peel off the words. Is there a happy medium?
That is exactly what it is great for, also retirement home craft projects. I also had a follower message saying it will be a great project for her Alzheimer’s patients ♥️ Sorry if you didn’t enjoy Sandra

Yes!! So much fun... Thanks for watching
Going to try this with grandkids over break. They love painting and crafts.
That is such a cool technique! I volunteer at our local youth centre and I'm definitely going to do the painting technique with them. I have some Terra Cotta pots I want to decorate for spring and this will be a great way to do it.
I also was thinking of doing that on those planters.
Yes that would work great!! Let me know how it goes :)

Great way to paint camouflage
Yes!!! I need to try that. Thanks for inspiring me :)
There are so many things I can think of to use this technique on. But how easy it would work on round planters.
Try it out ! I think it might work well :)
Can you use paper in printer after it dried? Or would you not recommend it? TIA- ANOTHER AWESOME video!!😍
I think it would be fine as long as it is really dry :) Thanks for watching
Fun
I love that paint method and I am certainly gonna try it. However. I have tried the regards sign thing you did with the printer. It does not work so well for me. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. At one point it looks like there’s still paper on there. And I keep going and then about to peel off the words. Is there a happy medium?
Are you using a Ink jet? If so it can be tricky. A laser jet works best. Also just do small areas at a time and dampen when it gets dry.
Can u please let me know how to get rid of the modpodge without scraping the paper or smooth the modpodge as it became too thick
Which side did u put the mod podge on.. The back or front of paper?
Thanks for watching Christi! Here is a tutorial that will help you out: ruclips.net/video/6avjNZX4imA/видео.html
You could also swipe the plastic wrap from one end top the other
Yes that would create a really cool pattern !
How did you do the graphics?
Here is a link to the tutorial to make the graphics :) ruclips.net/video/4uYe1SXRDE4/видео.html
How can we make the signs using an ink jet printer?

Hmmm. Perhaps we could all come up with some sort of saying that involves: Oops, that's okay, It's the DIY way. LOL
Hahah!! I love it... need a t shirt with that on it
Great idea. There really is ( no disrespect to feline lovers ) more than one way to skin a cat.
Absolutely!
That was not Saran wrap… it is Glad wrap … lol
Lol... we have both here in my house so never know which one I am grabbing and using. Thanks for watching Cathi
Not impressed...maybe for a kindergarten class
That is exactly what it is great for, also retirement home craft projects. I also had a follower message saying it will be a great project for her Alzheimer’s patients ♥️ Sorry if you didn’t enjoy Sandra
