Awesome video that is detailed and shows step by step directions very clearly explained. It was so helpful! I have bookmarked it for future use. Thank you for a great how-to video!
Thanks
Sorry about the unnecessary comments about the music. I didn't even notice it because your instructions are straight to the point; no additional words or jitter later. Informative and easy-to-follow instructions. Thank you so much.
I appreciate your comment, thank you so much!
Sarah, I want to thank you so much for the tip on using basting adhesive 💕
Music is too loud and distracting. It doesn't match the theme of what's going on.
Would be great without the music. You seem to be a wonderful teacher.
This video was very helpful, thank you! The music made it difficult at times to hear you.
Great info but the music needs to be off when you are talking. I couldn't finish the video. Very loud.
Video is great, but it would be great to show a close up so we can see that using the basting spray really helped create crisp letters.
Thanks for your input, I will try to put something together and show how well it works for me.
Love this and the detail, thank you. The background music was a bit loud..
Can you show a video how you printed the stencil itself? Like how you made the home and welcome portion and how you cut it.
I am planning a video on how to cut a stencil using a Silhouette, I'll be sure to link it in this video description when it's ready. Thanks.
Thank you so much for making this video. I'm new to the Cricut/Silhouette world and I was trying to decypher between the vinyls and transfer sheets. I'm making slate signs so I really just need the transfer paper... This cleared it up for me without it being a lengthy video. Thank you so much! 😃
Vvv
Great instructions,thank you!👍
Music is way too loud.
I don't like loud anything. I didn't pay attention to the music, you did a great presentation.
Loved the video, didn’t care much for the loud music. But I liked the video. 🙃
That Cameo looks so handy to have! I can think of so many projects I could do with one of those!
Definitely my go to craft tool!
hi dont want to be a kiljoy but at 9:48 you can see lots of bleeding on the white lettering.the reason for this is the sponge brush.use a good quality medium bristle brush for great results.
Hi Sarah ,Thank you for the project. I liked your video, very specific and clear to understand. I subscribed. Like the other comments, the music is a little laud but is manageable.
Thanks Adriana, the music is what it is I can't change it now but have toned it down on new videos. Thanks for watching.
love this. but have to agree that you don't need the music. it's too distracting.
Yes! Finally found someone on here who uses the same machine I have... Lol mine is still in the box, I have no idea how to use it. Guess I'll be binge watching your videos!
Yay, welcome! I have a ton of Silhouette videos and blog posts and I seriously use it all the time. I hope you get it out of the box and start playing around with it. You'll love it!!
@@SarahVanderkooy I'm so excited to see how to actually use it. I've been setting my craft room up and I'm almost ready to get to work. Thank you for posting videos! I'll definitely be binge-watching you're videos.
Oh my those are so good! I need to make these for christmas gifts!
The music!!! You have a very informative video, but the music is too distracting.
I just loved the video. U explain do well. Thanks a lot. I'm definitely going to try it.
just saw this, its great, been looking for spray glue that want leave stuff behind on wood, ty
I love your vids
Very well done. I am starting a sewing RUclips channel and I like your style. Your instructions are very clear. Good job.
Thank you so much Anne!
Do you peel off the stencil when the paint is wet? Slightly dry?
Always peel when it's wet.
Informative, short sweet and to the point! Thanks for doing this. ❤️ the music!!
Wonderful video!! What would you do if you had to make a sign on an uneven rustic driftwood??
How do you remove the spray from the stencil if you are re-using it?
Wash it with soap and water and lay or hang it to try. The spary is water based so it cleans up nicely.
Hi Sarah,
Such a great video, thanks for sharing. What font did you use for the continuous joined font? LOVE IT! ( Home ) Thank You ~ Amanda
I get alot of spray adheasive residue why? How do I get rid of it?
I am finding several weights for Dura-car. What should I get
Hi Sarah.
I followed your instructions for the 1st way to stencil to the letter... It bled so bad I don't know what to do! Maybe I didn't blot it enough? Of course my friend and brother says it looks good, but for me, I can tell and I want it to look good for my wife... Should I sand it off and re-stain and maybe try it slowly with a small brush? From afar it looks good, but up close, yuk!! It's a meditation table, so it will be seen up close.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
So sorry this happened. Some bleeding can happy and I know what you mean, you're always hardest on yourself. My biggest suggestion would be to use very little paint. Less than you think you need. You can go back with a second coat if needed. This should help prevent bleeding. Best of luck.
Very informative. Thank you for the video.
Basting spray leaves a residue on the wood. How do you clean it off without ruining the paint?
I typically don't get residue on my wood, but it does happen from time to time. Wait until everything dries then use a little warm water on a soft cloth. The spray should dissolve and not hurt the paint.
Thank you for an easy to follow video.
I have found that even with one time adhesive material that if the surface is not totally smooth you will have bleeding, how do you fix that? Thanks.
Thanks so much for this very informative video. I will definitely use the methods that you shared.
Thank you for sharing I like your channel
I got excited thinking this was gonna teach me something, but its just for cricut. Darn.
Jilly, I have another video that doesn't require a Cricut or any machine. It's truly and easy and inexpensive way to create a wood sign. ruclips.net/video/QGMlj6EkDag/видео.html
@@SarahVanderkooy thank you so much!
So the Cameo thing made the actual stencil? That's awesome! Thanks for the tips!
Yes you can cut stencils with a Silhouette Cameo - this video talks about that a little more in depth ruclips.net/video/EjbKyi_N-bo/видео.html
Its lovely I really like this I'm not creative at all maybe ill have a go see what I come away with ...
Great video! Which method do you prefer most? We're struggling with getting the lines as clean as we want, and whether we pull the stencil up completely wet or completely dry it pulls up paint. How have you avoided this?
My go to method is vinyl, the other 2 work well but I tend to gravitate toward vinyl the most. Make sure your stain is completely dry first, then transfer the stencil and press really well to get any gaps out. Use just a little paint at a time to build up the color. I like to pull up the stencil while the paint is still wet, if it dries completely you risk peeling the paint off. Good luck!
You could try using chalk paint it seems less likely to peel. Hope this helps.
Nice tutorial, however I agree with everybody regarding the background music. The added music is overkill, it distracts from the lesson you are teaching.
Hello! Does the basting spray work on wood painted with latex paint?
Yes it does!
@@SarahVanderkooy Thank you so much!
How do you fix your signs if you mess up? For example, if the paint seeps under the stencil, causing extra paint splotches
Love Love looks great. I am new to your Vlog. Would it be possible for you to put a list together of what we would need to start this type of project x Happy new year x Also ths Software and Machine you have on ths Table x
.
can i finish the wood sign with wood stain ? or what do you recomend for the paint not to bleed ?
Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing.
What paint did you use?
Loved the video but in the future, please omit the music!
How do you seal the words ?
Thanks for the informative video. Really helpful! Great job!
Hi, I have a question about the basting spray. I'm stenciling on to stained wood. Is there any clean up at all or does it come right off? i've read that it needs to be washed out of fabric when using it in sewing so I have to be sure it;s not going to leave a stain or anything. By the way, I like your video and the music! Thanks!
I have not had issues with residue. However, if you do have any left over on your board you can wipe it away with a wet cloth. That shouldn't damage the stain. Thanks for watching!
@@SarahVanderkooy How do you clean the glue off of the stencil?
Nice video, I printed out on my printer certain phrases that id like to see on glass. I do not like the stencil from Joann's or Michaels or Hobby Lobby because they don't have the words, the size nor the font I like. Hence why I found you. I will be looking at your video about making money with this because I think with practice, practice, practice I will be the guru of stencil in my state. So thanks so much, great video.
That's great to hear, best of luck!
Thanks for commenting on our last video. Love the quality of your vids and how set apart your editing style is from most. Nice work.
Does this require sanding after it's dry?
No it does not.
Great tutorial Thank you
Didn't notice the music being too loud until I read the comments, then it was all I could think about...
Too funny lol
What kind of brush did you use?
Also, I didn't find the music distracting at all!
I use a sponge brush to apply the paint. Thanks for you kind comment!
Where do you purchase the Stencil Maker? I could not find a link.
Hi Sarsh, new subie! I don't own a cameo or Cricut. I have to try to do it the old way. I'm sorry. I'm poor girl. I can't afford one of those. I don't own a computer. Just never recovered from Recession in 2008. It hit me hard. Thanks for sharing. Sorry this video isn't for me.
nice..
Are you using oil or water based stain?
Oil based stain for this particular sign, but you can use either for this technique.
What are your measurements for the wood and lettering please.
how did you make the stencil "Home" without having to piece letters together, like the "Welcome to out" stencil?
How do you get rid of the spray adesif on the stencil? Ive tried many ways and its still sticky
I am able to clean it with soap and warm water. There is still a bit of residue but the stickiness goes away. Maybe try soaking the stencil.
Make a video in how you cut the stencil
Check out this one, it should help! ruclips.net/video/T5m6CoPhXGc/видео.html
I find that sometimes after I have painted over a vinyl stencil, the paint tends to lift off of the wood. No bleeding issues at all but the letters come off. Any ideas on why this happens and how to prevent it?
Be sure to pull the stencil of while the paint is still wet, if you wait until it's dry it will peel like this that's happened to me! If you peel when it's still wet and the paint still comes off that means it's not sticking to your stain. Be sure your stain is completely dry before stenciling.
Thanks so much for your advice!
Can I use that material duralar with my cricut 2?
Yes you can. I currently use a Cricut Explore air 2 and it cuts Duralar.
When you use permanent vinyl as a stencil is it difficult to remove the vinyl after you paint?
I would opt for non-permenant vinyl to be safe, or a vinyl you are familiar with that you know pulls off well.
@@SarahVanderkooy I thought you said you used 651 which is permanent - that's why I asked.
Do you remove stencils while the paint is still wet or do you allow them to dry completely before removing?
I remove the stencil while the paint is still wet, if you wait until it dries you run the risk of chipping or peeling the paint around the stencil.
Great tutorial and cute sign!
great video!!
Maybe try a calmer music. It should be quieter than your voice.I feel like I'm trying to figure out what to listen to.
Love this.
Beautiful
Great instructions...but please, do not include the annoying music.
What is the name of the adhesive you use
Hi there. Great video! I have a question about the Silhouette Cameo machine that you posted the link to on Amazon. I am also only interested in the reusable, first method that you explained about. I noticed there are a ton of really bad reviews about the product. People are saying that it doesn't cut well, the software is terrible, and the customer service is awful. Did it take you hours of figuring it out or was it pretty straightforward? I really want to order it if it works and is fairly easy to use. Is there another machine that does the same thing that you recommend that has better reviews? Thank You! :)
Hi Kelly. I used a Silhouette for 5 years and loved it. It was easy to use and the company is great to work with. I recently got a Cricut, similar machine with the same abilities, and find that it is even more user friendly. The Cricut Explore Air 2 is a good price point and you can be up and running in like 30 minutes. Check it out here amzn.to/2S7dgW5
Keep an eye out at local craft stores for deals too! Hope that helps, happy crafting!
quick question after you paint the sing are you able to used a clear sealer ?
Yes you can. I personally do not and my signs, that are inside, have held up really well.
@@SarahVanderkooy any recommendation ?
Good information. I can’t listen because the music is too loud and distracting
How do you get your stencils to line up straight on your signs my fear is there going to be crooked
This is tough, I spend a lot of time lining them up. I eye the placement first, then use a ruler to make sure there is equal space on all sides.
U have no residue from the spray? I use your brand and I do
I'm sorry you are having that problem. If you do have residue you can use a damp cloth to dissolve it away once everything on your sign is completely dry. I try to use very little spray and keep the bottle a distance from the stencil to hopefully avoid any build up. Hope that helps, best of luck.
Is it necessary to prep the wood with any sealer before using the paint/stencil?
No it is not. If you are going to seal the sign I would do it after you are completely done with your stencil. If you leave your sign indoors sealing isn't really necessary.
@@SarahVanderkooy Thank you for replying. Have a great day!
Love it x
I thought I saw you use an eraser to clean up the painted letters, can you tell me what it was?
Hi Patty, the tools i use are Silhouette tools to pull out the pieces of stencil. I think there are 3 shown in this video, a pick tool a scraper and a pick me up tool. They help to pull up stencils, weed vinyl or push down vinyl. You could also use the tools to scrape away a bit of dried paint if needed. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
Does basting spray work on paper stencils?
It can work on paper stencils, but use very little. If you use too much, there will be paper residue left on the wood. I am not able to reuse the paper stencil after using basting spray.
Sarah Vanderkooy Thankyou for the tip

How do you clean the stencil?like how do you remove the adhesive after using?
For the reusable stencil I just use warm water and sometimes soap depending on the type of paint. The adhesive is water based so it washes off easily too.
Sarah Vanderkooy thank you, I use the same adhesive on your link and I notice that it leaves some white spots. I painted my canvas with black paint, idk if that's normal or I did something wrong
I haven't had that issue, but I tend to use lighter color stain and paint so there may be a residue that I just can't see. Thanks for sharing your experience.
What type of paint do you use on wood? I don't see any reference to type of paint
The paint that I use for the stencils is just craft paint, the kind you can find at any craft store or even Walmart. It's acrylic and comes in every color of the rainbow.
i LOVE that font . What font is that ?
The original font is unavailable, try Shellahera Script it's really close.
Interesting video and well explained in detail. How do I make money doing this work?
Check out the next video in this playlist, I talk about how to host a sign painting party with lots of tips for monitizing.
Thank you for the instructions but, that music has to go! Way too loud!
Hi, great video! Can you tell me what font you used to do the Home stencil with please? Tia!
The font is called Eminent Script, it is not a free font but if you search you can find a place to purchase it or find a similar free font on a site like dafont.com Thanks for watching!
Sarah Vanderkooy okay, thanks so much
Thank you where would I find that font Shellahera Script
Start with a site like dafont.com Or search for it and see if it is for sale on another site. Many of these sites offer fonts for free but some do require a fee.
How did you cut out the stencil film? And vinyl?
I cut the stencils using a SIlhouette. I designed the stencils using their software and them cut them. With a Silhouette you can also download premade stencil designs and cut them from vinyl or stencil material.
background music is too distracting
Hard to concentrate with music so loud.
I wanted to watch but the music was too much
