    You're so funny and fun and real, Debi! Oh, and you're a fabulous furniture artist as well!!! :)

    You are so funny to watch. Great comedic placement of the camera, and how you haphazardly hold EVERYTHING up to the camera. After I started watching your videos, I found Dionne and Quitta and have started working on building/painting furniture to supplement my lack of income! Thanks!

    Deb, you were the first person I found online that actually taught me something. I miss some of your super think outside the box ideas...(sea shell glam chandelier was my all time favorite) You are a trend setter girl. I have followed you a long time and watched your growth. You don't worry about Quitta because you are your own person...you have awesome ideas and creative juices flowing thru you on a regular basis. Bravo...this piece is lovely!

    Spectacular job Deb. I understand other diy artists selling their tutorials cause that’s how they earn their living, but I truly truly appreciate you showing us how it’s done. Not everyone can afford to pay to learn. Absolutely love you Deb. Keep up the amazing work. 😍😍😍😍

      Incorrect. Tutorials are customer service and free advertising. They make their money off of selling their product which is 1. Customer service 2. Furniture (in this case) 3. The supplies used to do DIY a project (again, in this case) 4. Customer service! After 20+ yrs of starting and growing one successful business after another, I can assure you that no matter what business you may be in, Customer Service is ALWAYS your #1 product.

    Hey Debi, the story of my life, a day late and a dollar short. I’m 63 yrs young and barely hope to get started the beginning of the year, but just to let you know, I want to be just like you when I grow up. Better late than never right? Luv the piece, inspired by you , and enjoy your videos immensely ❤️💜❣️💐🌸

    I think Quitta not sharing her method turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It forced YOU to turn to YOUR own "inner artist", (you know, the one who got you on TV?), who by the way does amazing work!

    Obsessing over a tiny detail? The story of my life....there is a quote that says "perfect is enemy of good" I always try to have that in mind!!! Very nice job!

  • @rneustel388

  • @dbrucestevens
    @dbrucestevens 6 лет назад

    Absolutely beautiful! You're fun to watch too. Very engaging. I wanted to share a technique that I used some time ago. I froze some acrylic paint till it was hard, then used a razor blade to shave off thin slices and let them drop onto my canvas. I let them sit where they were till they melted, then did a very minor bit of touching up. Very cool results! Oh, and when I'm painting with a water-based paint and have mixed some colors on my palette that I'd like to continue using (or if I don't want to waste paint) I always put it in the freezer. When I need it again, I take it out and within 20 minutes it's thawed I can use it again.

  • @KG-ui7ji
    @KG-ui7ji 5 лет назад

    Love the colours you used...and yes always bloopers when I paint furniture too, but I find they usually work out in the end and sometimes turn out for the better. That's how you learn and discover new techniques. I really like the camera angle you use too. It's different and makes it easy to see the whole piece.

    Yes I most defintely I obsess with my work. Im a virgo!! Im not so good at letting it go and just letting the piece evolve. If there's a small part bothering me I often walk away and have a cup of tea then come back fresh. Love you work Debi wish you posted more xx

    I just too a look at some of her Shabby designs on her FB page and her work is spectacular! You touched on her style but you made it your own. I think this is a good try especially for a first time out with no directions or instructions. You're an artist in your own right and i love your work.

    Whenever I find myself obsessing with a particular thought that's really not helpful I stop, take a breath and relax, and then I visualise being on a speed boat, and all the little random chaotic thoughts that really don't matter are the bits of water spray shooting out to the sides, and just whizzing way back into the distance behind me. The bigger picture, what's really important is what I see in front of me, the lake, the water, the view in the distance, the front of the boat pounding on the water as I fly along toward my destination. What's in front of me is what I need to focus on and what I choose to focus on, and it's beautiful.
