I don't know what to say. That was just amazing to put it mildly. What you did with the paint transformed the piece. I loved how you made a simple piece of paper into something that blended seamlessly into the design. You are definitely not afraid to take chances to achieve something that will be appreciated for years.
Michelle, I've watched a LOT of your videos and I truly enjoy your style, your laid back manner and attitude, as well as your talent. But today is the first time I have seen this video and I was dumbfounded when I realized it was YOU. I had to double check to make sure it was you, and then you appeared on camera and I was immediately awestruck! Honestly, I had no idea you did anything like this. I would so love to be able to do this, the first time, without totally ruining it. LOL, I need to start with something smaller for sure, and I do have IOD's Desperado just waiting for the right piece as well as a little more confidence! I just need to start with bits of it, I know. Thank you for sharing this one. I personally want to see more like this.
Wow! Thank you! I haven’t done a decoupage video in a while, huh? Although I used the iron method with this, I most often do the traditional method. I like grungy, aged, layered, textured, etc, so the wrinkles don’t bother me at all. I suggest starting with something smaller for decoupage and just dive in. I have many papers and a wide price range on my website. I guess its time to do another Longhorn piece, though, because I LOVE this particular paper :)
I love how honest you are! Telling us your thoughts, same things I say to myself!! Sometimes I think people want you to think they can do this so easily but in truth it really is WORK! LOVE THIS!!❤
Fantastic job! Wow, what a transformation. It's good to watch videos that show how cool a decoupage can turn out even if the subject seems a little "out there", like the steer. I wouldn't know what to do with it but your paint and artistry around it brought it to life.
Wow, I love how this turned out. I have never seen anyone do decoupage with the iron method before and watching you blend around the pic was great. Thank you for sharing.
I’m new to IOD, transfers, decoupage and DIY paint and have a strong desire to take my pieces to this level of artistry so I hope you keep up the tutorials I love your work! ❤️❤️❤️
This turned out amazing I think you did such a good job love how you blended the paint into the the paper and made it all one piece. Thank you for sharing 🥰🤗
Great piece! My question is what Decoupage medium did you use? If I used mod podge would I just paint that on the front And let it dry. And then iron on my deck at posh image?
I personally don't like Mod Podge on the front of a piece for sealer. It looks like glue to me. When I use it for the back, I topcoat with Wise Owl Varnish or DIY Paint Big Top.
Very nice! Love watching your process and vision. I would like to know what you would have sprayed the ironed on image to keep it from reactivating when you use the water base topcoat? Thanks! Getting ready to try my first piece with decoupage!
Wow. That’s the best diy I’ve every seen..... love it so much, if I lived closer I’d buy it ... the best I’ve seen.. such talent, live in a cabin in Alaska and would look so lovely in my place.... Question, did you seal it after you decoupaged? Not sure what you said as in reference to it bubbling.
Hey Sue-Anne - we ship the kits and all our products to Alaska! Rather than decoupage - I used a furniture transfer by Iron Orchid Design, and I used a heat gun to pop the air bubbles. You can read the step-by-step directions here: serendipity.house/blogs/tutorials/easy-diy-home-decor-project-wood-serving-tray-with-diy-paint-iod-transfers-epoxy-resin. Let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks for such a quick response. Anther question .. I live in Alaska and shipping is no joke... real expensive, can I use different paint brands with different waxes and so forth? Right now I’m hooked on DIY paint but so expensive to get it shipped in.... Thank you and have a great day....
Pretty sure I can ship usps flat rate to Alaska, so it shouldn’t cost any more as long as it fits in a flat rate box. Not all brands are comparable with one another, although not sure which you’re using. Sometimes chemicals and solvents don’t reactor well with the natural paint products.
I’ve never decoupaged. I’m planning to do my first piece soon. I have a few questions. I have several colors of chalk paint. Can I use those for blending, or do I need to buy DIY or Fusion mineral paints? Also, how do you decide which method to use? Iron on or the other way?
You can use any paint but they won’t all work the same., my preferred paint for blending is either Wise Owl chalk or DIY PAint. As for iron on versus traditional, I suggest trying both to see which you prefer. I actually enjoy the traditional method and can get a pretty smooth application with a brayer. It all just takes practice. Start small :)
@@serendipityhousellc Is that going to be a video or just listed on your website? My son lives in Texas and I know he and his wife would love something like this. Congratulations on the sell! 🥰
I sure wish you would fix your system so I can watch your videos on my big screen tv via my Apple TV device and iPad. None of yours I can do. Not much fun at all. I like to show on my big screen tv as I work. Have no issues with anyone else except your channel. Thank you.
I love what you did with this piece!
Thank you for showing how to fix mistakes
Love the wrinkles ❤️
That was good. Excellent result.
Thank you!
Love the music and it looks awesome!!
thank you. Everyone loves the Longhorn!

What a great tutorial I am new to Decoupaging, can I ask what you used as a primer that you mentioned to stick the image on.
Great piece! My question is what Decoupage medium did you use? If I used mod podge would I just paint that on the front And let it dry. And then iron on my deck at posh image?

I’ve been using a spray lacquer, or just doing regular method with a brayer and brush on topcoat. Hardly any wrinkles and much faster!

I absolutely love this! Great job! Will this be available to purchase?
Thank you! This sold while I was painting it live on my FB page. I’m doing a bench now that’s not sold yet, though 😊

I live in TEXAS RANCH LAND AREA I DEFINITELY NEED THAT POSTER
its Mint by Michelle decoupage paper and its amazing! my favorite and a best seller for sure
What kind of paper are you ironing on the decoupage paper?
does the iron technique works with other mediums? THanks
Yes- most decoupage mediums. I’ve used mod podge, wise owl varnish and DIY Liquid Patina.
WOW
I can't find the long horn bull. Can you send me the link?
Wow! Turned out absolutely fantastic. The music for me is slightly too loud and distracting.
What size of paper did you use on that.?
This is the larger size paper. 23 x 33 serendipity.house/collections/decoupage/products/texas-longhorn-decoupage-paper

Sorry your Apple TV isn’t working right. Not sure what the problem is- I am able to watch them on my Apple TV. ☹️
Does not spraying all that water hurt your wood piece..ouch
No- its primed and sealed, and it’s just a light misting to help blend the paint.
Please lose the music
