This project is spectacular!! I agree you should not rush your wonderful instructions. You are very clear and so informative. I have been using paper napkins to decopage for years and am enjoying all the tips I am learning from you. You are a true artist with your paper and glue -lol. Thank you so much!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the LONGER videos!! Please keep showing them with all the details that you can! I'm enjoying the step by step instructions. You really are the best instructor! xx
This looks a lot like what I called decoupage when I was a kid in the 70s. I would paint the medium (not mod pod, but I can’t remember the brand) and painted about 6 coats on the paper image letting it dry between each coat, then soak it in water for a bit and roll the paper off with my finger the way you did. Then I’d turn it over and lay it over a molded plaster disk and put more medium on top. We made them as wall hangings. I’ve looked everywhere for someone who used a similar method and you’re the first I found! It reassures me that I do remember it correctly. I was beginning to think I was crazy.
Longer is fine with me! I work at home, and Thursday is my manicure day; I sit at my desk and play your video for the week while filing and polishing my nails. This works beautifully for me. Everything you do is fascinating. And your nails look great, too, by the way!!!
Thank you so much Annie! Every other Thursday is my manicure day since I"m working on the video's every M thru W. Thank you for saying that about my nails!!! Yay... I appreicate the feedback about the video length too. What a big help. Patti
Great techniques! As far as I'm concerned, make your videos as long as possible! You inspire and teach me so much! I've always wondered about gel medium for transferring graphics, so this was extremely helpful♥♥♥
Thank you Lynda, that's great to hear. Yes, I love doing transfers but for years I kpet trying and would only have about a 50/50 success rate, umtil I started using the Gel Medium. Thank you again! Patti
Lovely! and the length still grab my attention, this is why I know the length is fine, because I watch till the end! Thanks for sharing beautiful value!!.
I always get so many great tips from each video you post and It really makes my day when I see a new creation you have worked on. I am going straight to the Graphics Fairy to get that script!
Thank you Becky! I love getting comments like yours because that is why I do this! I was making so many things with decoupage that I thought, "Does anyone else know about this?" LOL/ at least now a lot more people know about it. Isn't the Graphics Fairy Amazing? Patti
Hi Patti. I have been decoupaging birdhouses as. Gifts for friends for indoors, so this really excites me. I didn’t think they would survive outdoors. Do you know if the ones I print myself on rice paper would work too? Thank you for another awesome video! Been following you for years. 😊
This is wonderful. For years hubby makes birdhouses and I paint them and use stamps. Now I have a much better way and so want these papers. Starting on a new one for sister In law this week, just got it sanded. Can we download your script and buy these napkins from your site? Just started looking at your store, a lot to see...but I do have a lot of crafting materials I need to use and not waste. Hubby is all for recycling and me using what I have already. Just need a few papers?
Hi Patti I am loving this gorgeous birdhouse. The script looks amazing on it. Love the glitter, love the gelato, is that how you spell it :) I like the longer videos. Doesn't bother me how long they are, they are great videos either way. I bet this birdhouse is going to look so pretty on your front porch, is that where you are putting it? deezie
aww, thank you so much Deezie. So far every single comment on the length of the video's says to make them longer. I always have trouble spelling gelato and yes you spelled it right. The birdhouse is out there now, looks like I have a few interested buyers (sparrows and wrens LOL) It's prime real estate for birds being in front of the waterfall and all. LOL :)
I like the longer videos! By the way, did you "age" a little a few of those bulb decorative overhangs from the "roof"? I missed that I guess! It's beautiful!!
Thank you so much for the feedback.... Oh, you know what? I accidentally did that with the aging on the roof overhangs. I thought I was wiping away some dust while the paint was wet, but it was paint. I decided to like the effect. :) Thanks again! Patti
Thank you Girlie! I need that feedback. Sounds like everyone thinks that same way. (tomorrow's video is short but that's to be expected around this time of the year. :) Patti
There are many components to creating an amazing design. One resource I found that successfully combines these is the Aviary Magic Method (check it out on google) without a doubt the most useful info that I've seen. Check out this unbelievable site.
