- Thank you to The Peppermint Cactus for this amazing idea! This is a fun and easy way to make faux wood from foam poster board and some Waverly clear wax, Waverly antique wax, and Waverly Chalk Paint Ink. The Peppermint Cactus has videos that go more in depth on different colors, projects, etc. so if you enjoyed this subscribe to my channel and go and subscribe to The Peppermint Cactus I will post her channel below!

If you like this check out the peppermint cactus, she does a great job at this.
Absolutely as mentioned in the description :)
This was so cool! Thank you for doing this tutorial. P.s. I found you through the Dollar Tree Cricut Craft group on Facebook ☺️
Welcome to my channel glad you enjoyed!
Me too!
So did I. This was a a excellent tutorial
To much background noise. Dog barking, bell jingling. Couldn’t pay attention to your project.
That what happens live I try to do early before life happens
I could barely hear you. But the demonstration was on point.
thanks i'm sorry working on this issue
Thank you for such a detailed and well-explained tutorial! It was really helpful to me and I’m now subscribed and following your channel! Oh and I absolutely enjoyed your dog’s squeaking toy sounds in the background lol! Have a great day 😊
Awesome! I just subscribed ☺️
Thanks so much
Genius! I never would have thought foam board could turn out this amazing! Thank you for showing this.
You are so welcome!
vertical video ... well ...
phone will not do ugh!
Hard to hear you
Unfortunately I have had some people say this was a problem while others say it was to loud However, On the bottom right hand corner there is a little cc button this will enable closed captions I just received my microphone so hopefully it will help for future videos
@@GilbertMarketplace Thank you:)
🥰 I learned this technique from The Peppermint Cactus! Now she is using a wood graining tool for added detail on top of this finished look. Amazing!! Nice job..love 5his technique!❤
I had that tool many years ago when we painted on plaster
That really does look like wood. Love it
Thanks!
Genius!!! Thanks for sharing this. (New Subby...) I can't wait to pick up some foam board!
Thanks for subbing!
Great tutorial! It would be helpful if you spoke a little louder, I was really straining to hear you. Love the end product! I’ll be returning the chalk paint that I thought would look good for creating faux wood and buying craft waxes 😊. Thank you for this tutorial!
Thank you I’ll try to speak loader I think it’s the distance of the phone. The wax is easy for sure
These look awesome! Would this technique work on pink foam boards like you use for Halloween boarded up windows or would the pink show through?
I think pink would show unless you painted solid before you did the other colors
Any alternatives to the antique wax? I’m in Canada and our Walmart only carries Faulk Art chalk paint in white, black & light grey... I really want to find a substitute for the Waverly Chalk paint antique wax.
I haven't personally used another wax for this technique but I have used Annie Salon wax many of times before and it is basically the same concept so I think if you used any form of a wax it should work the same for you:) The wax is super important though since that is what prevents the boards from absorbing to much and curling
If you watch the video I uploaded yesterday (you inspired me to try another brand lol) for the grey faux wood I used Annie Salon's wax in black and it worked great! Its a perfect alternative and after using this I am more then sure any brand of wax will work :) Happy Crafting!
Gilbert Marketplace yes, I saw it after. Thank you. :)
can you use acrylic paint instead of chalk paint, along with wavery wax? thanks
I think most works fine
Great tutorial! I especially like your easy to follow steps - thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I missed what kind of paint, acrylic or oil? Thanks
acrylic oil to messy
I really tried to hang in there.. But your sound needs work. Best wishes
Thank you for the input at the bottom if you click the cc it will enable closed captions if that helps
I love this. You could also make these into signs.
Yes!
I just want to ask if the wax dries or cures on the boards or can it rub off on anything that touches the boards?
no it dries its not a real waxy wax if that makes sense
Wow! I’ve never seen this done before! Amazing
Thank you! 😊
This is so cool! What area do you find that pink poker thing in?
Craft section
Thank you so much for this video!
You are so welcome!
Thank you I like that!
Thank you
very cool!!!! TYFS
thanks glad you liked!
The original creator for the faux planks came from peppermint cactus. She started tutorials on fb & is also on RUclips.
Yes as mentioned above with her link
Great job! Lightweight and looks EXACTLY like wood! Perfect! Thank you!
Thank you
I only buy the clear wax, and the antique wax, I probably wouldn't even have to buy the antique wax, because you can tint the clear, any color you want. I just found your channel. New sub. 😊
Thanks for Sub!
This is really quiet, and hard to hear.
I know, use headphones
I'm fixing
I love it
Thanks
Thanks for sharing. You do an amazing job. I subscribe to your channel today.
Thanks
Thank you for this tutorial, I have wanted to do some faux wood and this looks like the best way so far. I found you through the dollar tree cricut craft group,and I'm so glad I did! My question is: What can you use to seal these planks of faux wood? I am looking at using them as a background for a framed saying, and also stand alone. I live in Florida, the weather can damage items quickly if not sealed. Also, little fingers can tend to touch and/or pick at open stand alone items. Currently I have Crystalac, Polycrylic, Mod Podge Spray Sealant, and Mod Podge brush on sealers to choose from. Will any of these work or do I need a different product?
well because its a wax that should be fine as a sealer. you cold also use a matte spray but lightly mist
All of my Walmart's are out of Waverly, can you use just Black chalk paint, clear wax, and a brown wax?
Yes any wax brand works I have also used Annie salon in replace of the waverly. Waverly was hit hard with Covid so the plant was shut down which is why it has been so hard to find but I believe they are up and running and should be restocking soon
Good tutorial... I am saving this for when I have all my stuff ready.. Thank you..
Thank you and so fun! If you have facebook you should share once you finish :) facebook.com/groups/924624524707852/
This is amazing!!!!! Funny side note the whole time you was using the sponge on the foam board I was cringing hahaha 😂 kinda like nails on a chalkboard but the funny part is, is that even though the sound wigged me out I kept right on watching 😂
haha! its crazy how something just bug us right!
Absolutely amazing! Thanks so much for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is just what I’ve been looking for. Great tutorial! TYFS
Thank you
My volume is all the way up and I can barely hear you. Please speak louder. Thanks for the info.
Im sorry, I have been having some sound issues it sounds like from a couple different people I am going to work on this so hopefully soon it will be easier for everyone... In the meantime I know RUclips has the option for closed caption on the bottom left hand side where it has a cc that may be helpful
This is amazing. Thank you. I found you through the DT Cricut Craft group also. I'm so glad I did.
Awesome! Thank you! Welcome to the channel :)
Thank you! Now I have a new skill under my belt. I subscribed to your channel!
Thanks for the sub! Im glad you enjoyed I am sure you will have some great crafts that you do! Happy Crafting
Someone recommended this video on Facebook. Glad to have found ur channel!!
Thanks :)
That is absolutely amazing ! Thanks for sharing!!!
My pleasure!
Do you need to seal it? I want to use on a ceiling in my husband’s small work shop.
no but you sure could
This was awesome, it totally looks like wood!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for sharing. Love this idea
Thanks for watching!
This is awesome!! What section in the store do you find the waxes?
I found these in the craft section at Walmart where they have all the paints its Waverly so it usually has its own shelf and is usually one of the first few... They have white, antique, and clear
This is awesome! I cannot wait to try this technique. Thank you so much.
Thanks
I’d love to see what you do with these faux wood planks.
I made faux shutters and hung boxwood wreaths off of them, I have also made one to use as a backdrop for my photos I have seen some people do a whole accent wall as well. If you join my DIY Facebook page I should have some photos on there
facebook.com/groups/924624524707852
Very nice! What do you use to stick it to the wall?
you can use command strips
Very nice! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
This is a really cool diy. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Are you able to put any type of sealant over it once you’re done?
was you don't need to
Looks great. What did you use that for?
I have done a couple different ones these ones I used as a back for a boxwood wreath that i hung
Amazing!! Thank you! So easy too!
You are so welcome!
This is great! Thanks for the tutorial 😘

Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks!!!! Love this
So glad!
Wow that looks awesome!!
Thanks
Please next video list what you use! That’s so helpful!! Ty
Waverly Clear Wax
Waverly Antique Wax
Waverly Ink Chalk Paint
Readi-board (Foam Board)
1 Bath sponge cut in half from Dollar Tree
1 Makeup Sponge from Dollar Tree
1 sharp razor blade (to cut the board, I suggest only a razor no handle or anything so it doesn't snag along the board)
and to mix the paints I used a metal Stove burner cover from the Dollar Tree
Gilbert Marketplace the list of the paints is exactly what I needed! I had to make sure I had them! Ty so much! You did a great job!!
@@kimbermcnitt8358 No problem! Thank you Happy Crafting!
Love the gnot holes.
fun
I can't here you very well at all with the volume all the way up to max. It looks good!
I am going to work on a way to add subtitles but I believe if you click the little cc button on the bottom right hand corner RUclips adds the closed caption (subtitles) hopefully that helps! I just know sometimes the RUclips subtitles switch up some words
I can hear others that I watch on RUclips just not your well at all. Thanks!
@@theresacarter1685 Thank you I am working on getting a microphone so it hopefully helps on future videos :) I also uploaded a step by step today with clips of videos so hopefully that helps also!
Really nice!
Thank you
Love it!
Thank you!
Love it
Thank you
Woooooow
Thanks
Impressive! wow!
Thank you
@@GilbertMarketplace Have you ever tried other grain effects? I got a book on painting techniques and one of the advanced methods shows how to do Mahogany burl. A prized, exotic and expensive wood grain pattern. Made from those big bulges on trees, i think Maple is prized for these tumor like growths also.
Referring to your viewers as “ladies” is pretty sexist. Guess I’ll watch someone that is ok with men doing crafts as well.
sorry everyone is crafter :(
Steven Burke, statistics show that the majority of crafters ARE women, so she had every reason to address her audience as “ladies”. Hope you did decide to watch a different creator, nobody wants a butt hurt, whiner in the audience.
@@MagicWandProductions statistics show that the majority of Americans are white. Do we need to exclude every other race because of that?
If you would like to learn from the original crafter and many more faux wood techniques follow the peppermint cactus here on RUclips or FB. She has worked really hard to learn this technique and teach it.
*It is always polite to mention where you got your inspiration!
In the description it is clearly stated from Peppermint Cactus and has the link to subscribe Thanks for the concern!
