So amazing to hear you say that you’ve been inspired by ladies doing journaling/art journaling with textures and paints.. I am a journal maker and have been heavily inspired by a lot of furniture artists here on RUclips and Instagram and I sometimes apply their techniques and painting styles to the way I paint my journal covers that I create. So hearing you say that was a full circle moment! I love your style and the way you use color, and this piece looks incredible!!
Well thank you then as you ladies who journal know where the layering is at.... It all worked quite well and I'm glad you liked it and have left us such a kind comment. Lel x ❤️
I was telling my gang about how intrepid you are and how every time you do something that would make a tidy perfectionist hemorrhage from the gall bladder you go 'I'm quite brave' or something. I love it. You're a rock star.
Ha ha.... Art is not about perfection.... As is witnessed quite a lot if you watch my videos. Its about having fun.... And being crazy enough to just go for it..... Marty loved this comment... Ha ha we are laughing. Lel x x
A big YES! Please have a tutorial on your blending technique! This piece is an incredible, beautiful display of being courageous in artistic expression! Love it!
Funny I have just started filming a piece on simple blending it could take a couple of weeks to filter through by the time it's edited and uploaded but keep an eye out. Lel x
Ha ha you always have to trust the process...when painting I often think this but I just keep the faith, thanks for your kind comment. And I'm glad your having some sunshine in Germany. Lel x ❤️
They were not really random they were the background and the build up to the design.... Although I do understand to everyone at home they look like a hot mess and incredibly random. Does this happen to you? You go back half way and think oh no......... Thanks so much I totally appreciate you watching x x
Just replayed this video which still leaves me in awe of Lel’s artistic gifts! This art piece is ridiculously beautiful! Hopefully, Lel will create another piece for her membership group…lol!
Oh do you know.... Someone bought that a few years ago.... And paid for it and were moving and had legal issues with the property so didn't collect it. It's still here...... I keep hoping they will want it soon...... X
What a fun and beautiful piece! This a complement for sure, but it reminded me of when I cook a meal from all of the leftover bits of food that I have in my refrigerator and it comes out as a masterpiece that I can never recreate again. I loved the uninhibited way you just watching you unabashedly smashed and sprayed paint on the cupboard. I just found your channel a few weeks ago, but it has taken first place in my furniture painting artists. I love the earthy way you approach art and the sweet collaborative partnership you share with Martin. What a great team. Your accent is so lovely. My dream is to visit Scotland someday. I am in Boston, Massachusetts and my name is Lesley! Thank you so much for generously sharing your gift and knowledge.
Lesley I cook those meals the ones where you try to use everything up from your fridge and it turns out tasty. Then they ask you to make it again and I have totally forgotten what went into it ...ha ha ha I love they way you described it..... In regards to my art because you are actually quite correct I will never make another like this as I will forget what I did ( I will have to watch myself) As for painting I feel I want to spread the word that it's fun and so liberating to just play with paint. And to create a look that you are happy with. I'm so glad we rank so highly in your furniture artists as there are so so many amazingly talented artists out there. Marty and I are total partners and we have so much fun doing our videos . And we both read your message and we want you to know we appreciate your very kind words. We thank you for watching and commenting to stay with us on our journey. Marty and lel x ❤️
So very interesting! You are indeed a true artist! And Martin really gets in there with you to show us your genius. You are fun to hang out with. Thanks. Beautiful job! .
I am thrilled to of accidentally found you yesterday whilst surfing you tube. You are a breath of fresh air. I’m loving the fact you are British and you just speak, teach, show and do. I’m excited to learn new techniques and ideas from you. Your work is fabulous. You’ve already inspired me. I’ve been stuck in a box, but, I’ve made a decision on a piece I am going to upcycle for myself. Thanks to you sweetie you’ve opened my creative box and the ideas are now flowing. Love from Felixstowe England 😍👏
Yay Karen...... I'm glad, it's difficult sometimes when you feel your stuck that even happens to me... I fix it by just looking at colours and then patterns and it just grows into an idea... I'm glad what I'm doing and showing helps.... I do my videos like I run my art classes when I used to teach.... I would show show again then move on... And repeat it again and show as I go.... When your finished you piece send me a pic through Facebook or Instagram I would love to see what your up to. Thanks for watching and subscribing we appreciate it. Lel x
Thanks so much ❤️ I'm glad you liked it a fun project made from leftovers. Thanks so much for continuing to watch and for such a kind comment. Lel x ❤️
Ahhhh Angela thanks so much, I'm kinda sorry you had to endure me droning on 7 times. Yes that piece is one that just keeps drawing the eye with lots of surprises. Thanks for watching Lel x
Joanne You do ....I promise It's creativity and you have it ...I promise I used to teach people how to use there creativity skills ... Just get a piece and enjoy it...if you don't like it start again...and try colours and really have fun....this is the start....stick things on it stencil things on it and splash paint around and then look at your work. Joanne go for it...❤️❤️
Hey Marley girl, I gotta stop binge watching your channel all night and go to bed sometimes lol! I’m learning so much I toss and turn in excitement for the want of trying to imitate your glorious style!
Hello you two..I was laughing when I heard you say Journaling..wait WHAT!!! And than you start talking about vase..what?! Where is it?This art work is so intimidating,I'm lost for words.All finished combining together..Really??!! I can't express enough how brilliant you are.Absolutely mind blowing. This one I'll need to watch over and over.Thank you soooo much for showing your greatness in such a humble way. ❤❤❤
Please don't be intimidated at all, just get your paints and stuff out and play ...learn to play again...it's liberating not intimidating I promise 😇 Find inspiration in anything from hedgerows to old fabric scraps. Everyone and I truly mean everyone is creative just get it out there.... As for how kind and generous you have been with your comment I don't feel worthy....remember I'm just a middle aged woman standing in an old stable throwing paint around....ha ha Much much love to you and thanks so much again for watching. Lel x ❤️
Ha ha ha those rabbits...needed there moment even if it was in the cuboard. Thanks Linda so much for watching and I'm excited you can't wait to get going. Lel x ❤️
You are a MAD Magician!!! What a show! I love the stamp design put on the tissue papers. And then painting them. In graphic design I worked with transparent layers of colors, textures, text, you name it. Speaking of Scotland, I've been listening to a 70s band, "Slade" and they have a great song, "We're All Crazy Now." The crazier the art the better.
This is brilliant! Creativity and skills practice, making use of bits and pieces and creating a beautiful, artful furniture journal of your work. I'll aspire to make something like this one day.
OMG !! Lel . That’s INCREDIBLE!😮 You just blow me Away girl . Just INCREDIBLE your talent WOW ! WOW ! I thought when you were painting outside, I thought NA ! I’m NOT going to like this . Boy oh boy how wrong was I . All those colours just blew me away 😮and all the stencils and inlays and tissue paper just Exquisite work Lel ❤❤ Ya . Oh yes please do a video on blending 👍 Have an Awesome day
Amazing!! Incredible!! I love it so much!! Didn’t know journaling could be so beautiful!! You are so so talented!! Thank you for this- you gave me so many ideas.
Oohh there's a story to this piece, someone bought it over a year ago. And asked us to store it till she bought a house. She keeps in touch but no sign of it going anywhere soon...... 😂
You are absolutely brilliant! I love watching your video tutorials. You inspire me so much & I wish I could be half as good as you! I look forward to your future videos 😊 xx
You are as good as me every one is creative. Just play with your paint and grab inspiration from everywhere. I absolutely love your very kind comment it makes me feel very humble. Thanks so so much for watching and leaving such a thoughtful and kind comment. Lel x ❤️
I need to borrow your mind for just 1 hour!!!! 🤣🥰 absolutely amazing and the rabbits inside remind me of the white rabbit from a crazy but beautiful alice in wonderland garden
You are a masterful artist ! Such talent ! Love your teaching .. I’m learning so much and am getting ready to start a piece that will definitely test my skills . Best to you and Martin 😊
I also love creating bohemian style pieces 😃 Your work is amazing 🙌🙌🙌🙌🥰 Thank you for sharing your tips. I especially love the lacquer tip for inlays. Haven’t tried them yet but hope too 😀❤️❤️❤️
This piece is completely magnificent! I so enjoyed every single second of this video and as far as the colors, they are perfection. I am in love with this and how you brought it together! Super super job! ❤ You are extremely talented indeed!
*This tutorial was wonderful…beautiful job explaining your process in creating this gorgeous piece! The way you altered the ❤front “panel” was absolutely amazing. You are an artistic genius! :) thank you ..thank you! :)
I'm sorry there is only so much I can show in a hour and it takes so long to do a piece like days and days and it has to be condensed and its what to keep in our take out. Others would find it dull it I repeated steps or put to much footage of one thing over others. , it's a fine line and Its a difficult one to try and get right. Sorry you are unhappy about the editing.. Lel
I think it's imaginative and I love that, I've watched some of those laddies aswell, I paint small boxes so I do use inks, stamps, stencils in mimiture for them, and although I'm not into scrapbooking I admire the work involved.
Yea I didn't even know about, I was looking for layered techniques. However I ended up just making it up ..ha ha If your on any of the socials send me pics of your boxes they sound fabulous X ❤️
This gives me such inspiration to use paint inlays. I bought one months ago but haven’t attempted to use. I luv all the patchwork color idea! I guess the one color blue inlay is the paradise one. That really looked good over the pink! Ur Soo creative…. Thanks
WOW! You have such an amazing imagination! I admire how you see alternative uses for pieces of furniture. My question is this- how do you know what paint/varnish/lacquer can go on top of each other? I hear you mention the different varieties, but I am clueless about them. Is there a formula or chemistry involved????
What a magnificent piece of art! The detail is so so good! I would love to see what you create, when you aren’t creating furniture, or large pieces. If you have the time someday, I would love to see some smaller creations!
Okay Alyson I will think about some smalls ....my buisness is furniture but I do work on smalls for our website....so I will see what I can show you. I'm so glad to liked it and thanks again for watching. Lel x ❤️
Lel, how wonderful once again I'm thoroughly amazed. The world of color is all new to me and have been so excited to give it a go and have purchased a piece similar to the one in todays video I can hardly wait to use a pallete knife lol. Poor Don during the time I'm glued to the video he is trying to hang a door at least my legs are getting a workout up and down the stairs lol. Keep on creating your beautiful art❤
Yay....get your pallet knife and go for it....get the colours going....ha ha Oohh I'm excited for you to get going on your piece. I'm glad your looking at colour it's brilliant. Thanks again so much for your kind comments they really mean so much...and for continuing to each me. Lel x ❤️
Yes it's just paint if you don't like it just paint over it Thanks for watching and commenting sorry its taken so late to reply I've had a bug... We are grateful for your continued support Lel x x ♥️
Tartan? Yes but quite a long time ago I did but with all the clans tartans in Scotland you have to get them exact as you could offend. Ha ha Would you like me to? I could give it a bash...ha ha ha
@@MadebyMarley Yes I guess tartan is correct word. Oh I bet if it's wrong you'd be in trouble. My husband had Scottish ancestry. His grandfather lived to 100+ and was very into his genealogy. He gave his tartan tie (green plaid) to my husband. Clan name was "Graham." Anyway I'm sure you have many, many ideas brewing in your head. I get a kick out of your wonderful creative videos.
Yes Graham is a very Scottish name lots of Graham's ..thanks your always so kind . . some times ideas are quick and come easy other times they come and go till I work out how to execute them. Do you paint furniture? X ❤️
@@MadebyMarley I do for myself, not to sell, at least not yet. It's hard, hard work! Very physical which is hard for me to do with horrible arthritis issues. I have painted/remodeled two bathrooms. Right now I'm back working on a large mirror frame for master bathroom. I made from foam board, paper mâché, joint compound, etc., Lol! I just wanted to see if I could do it vs wood. It's large and still in progress. While it's "curing" I am also creating smaller mirrors from cardboard with a Moroccan shape. Never seen it done before, it's a brain storm idea. Protoype #1 was done last year with obvious issues. But I had to start some where. Now working on Prototype #2. If all goes well I'd like to sell them. I just need to purchase a scroll saw so I can cut plexiglass/acrylic that has mirror finish one side. Option would be to have a catchy quote stenciled on the mirror. I would make my own stencil. I love, love to paint, create projects, improve home, etc. We remodeled our kitchen and it was my largest graphic design project imaginable. I always loved packaging design and grew up loving interior design.
Wow I think we might be kindred spirits. I love home decor and interiors to. Your mirrors sound awesome. I like smalls and I've been asked a few times to do smaller projects so maybe I could fit some other things I do into my channel.I like hearing about what everyone else is making... I'm sorry to hear you have arthritis that must be painful and debilitating. Keep in touch. Lel x If you have Facebook or Instagram send me some pics of what your up to.🙂
A light sealer nothing to heavy.... Can you get rustoleum laquer in the US? Its a good one. Any light sealer will do not a tough coat sealer... Can you get French chic in the US they do a good sealer? I can't get DIY paint in the uk but does Debbie do a light sealer or wise owl...? I am asking marty to look on US Amazon he says he can't find rustoleum laquer only a spray. Let me look into to see if I can find something.... X x
I'm sorry but to me it's just a mess..I would have stripped it and started over...I do like your other work though...you have painted some beautiful projects!
I'm sorry your not a fan of this piece, Art is of course subjective and not everyone has the capicity or appreciation to understand. I guess it's also a case of beauty is in the eye of the beholder because the customer who purchased this piece absolutely loved it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Maybe next time we will make you happy.
I learned a lot watching you do this armoire!
It turned out pretty cute x
I luv how u made transparent peonies from tissue paper and outlines with the paint pens .. so many ideas from this video… thanks for sharing
Always a good one to try stamping on tracing paper x

When you started I thought Oh dear. But was wrong its really lovely and cheerful - have a nice weekend from hot and sunny Germany.
Ha ha you always have to trust the process...when painting I often think this but I just keep the faith, thanks for your kind comment. And I'm glad your having some sunshine in Germany.

Absolutely amazing how you pull all these random techniques to produce such a beautiful unique piece
They were not really random they were the background and the build up to the design.... Although I do understand to everyone at home they look like a hot mess and incredibly random. Does this happen to you? You go back half way and think oh no......... Thanks so much I totally appreciate you watching x x
Layers and layers. There were times I was holding my breath watching this process. But the results are amazing. This piece is absolutely beautiful!
I guess it sometimes get way messy and ugly before you can turn it all around X ❤️

What a magnificent piece of art! The detail is so so good! I would love to see what you create, when you aren’t creating furniture, or large pieces. If you have the time someday, I would love to see some smaller creations!
Okay Alyson I will think about some smalls ....my buisness is furniture but I do work on smalls for our website....so I will see what I can show you.
I'm so glad to liked it and thanks again for watching.

Lel, how wonderful once again I'm thoroughly amazed. The world of color is all new to me and have been so excited to give it a go and have purchased a piece similar to the one in todays video I can hardly wait to use a pallete knife lol. Poor Don during the time I'm glued to the video he is trying to hang a door at least my legs are getting a workout up and down the stairs lol. Keep on creating your beautiful art❤
Yay....get your pallet knife and go for it....get the colours going....ha ha
Oohh I'm excited for you to get going on your piece.
I'm glad your looking at colour it's brilliant.
Thanks again so much for your kind comments they really mean so much...and for continuing to each me.

At any point when your design goes crazy, does Martin throw down his camera and run?
God I love this
Awww that was a fun one......
@@MadebyMarley I’m binging all of your videos. Your work is so inspirational
Thanks so much Cat x
Have you done anything in Scottish plaids? I bet you could pull it off.
Tartan? Yes but quite a long time ago I did but with all the clans tartans in Scotland you have to get them exact as you could offend. Ha ha
Would you like me to? I could give it a bash...ha ha ha
@@MadebyMarley Yes I guess tartan is correct word. Oh I bet if it's wrong you'd be in trouble. My husband had Scottish ancestry. His grandfather lived to 100+ and was very into his genealogy. He gave his tartan tie (green plaid) to my husband. Clan name was "Graham." Anyway I'm sure you have many, many ideas brewing in your head. I get a kick out of your wonderful creative videos.
Yes Graham is a very Scottish name lots of Graham's ..thanks your always so kind . . some times ideas are quick and come easy other times they come and go till I work out how to execute them.
Do you paint furniture? X ❤️
@@MadebyMarley I do for myself, not to sell, at least not yet. It's hard, hard work! Very physical which is hard for me to do with horrible arthritis issues. I have painted/remodeled two bathrooms. Right now I'm back working on a large mirror frame for master bathroom. I made from foam board, paper mâché, joint compound, etc., Lol! I just wanted to see if I could do it vs wood. It's large and still in progress. While it's "curing" I am also creating smaller mirrors from cardboard with a Moroccan shape. Never seen it done before, it's a brain storm idea. Protoype #1 was done last year with obvious issues. But I had to start some where. Now working on Prototype #2. If all goes well I'd like to sell them. I just need to purchase a scroll saw so I can cut plexiglass/acrylic that has mirror finish one side. Option would be to have a catchy quote stenciled on the mirror. I would make my own stencil. I love, love to paint, create projects, improve home, etc. We remodeled our kitchen and it was my largest graphic design project imaginable. I always loved packaging design and grew up loving interior design.
Wow I think we might be kindred spirits. I love home decor and interiors to. Your mirrors sound awesome. I like smalls and I've been asked a few times to do smaller projects so maybe I could fit some other things I do into my channel.I like hearing about what everyone else is making...
I'm sorry to hear you have arthritis that must be painful and debilitating. Keep in touch.

If you have Facebook or Instagram send me some pics of what your up to.🙂
Would you know the U.S. equivalent to lacquer?
A light sealer nothing to heavy.... Can you get rustoleum laquer in the US? Its a good one.
Any light sealer will do not a tough coat sealer... Can you get French chic in the US they do a good sealer? I can't get DIY paint in the uk but does Debbie do a light sealer or wise owl...?
I am asking marty to look on US Amazon he says he can't find rustoleum laquer only a spray.
Let me look into to see if I can find something.... X x
❤ ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕 💘 ❤ 😍 💖
Thanks so much ❤️
do you know? what is the equivalent of Lacquer in USA?
Mmmm whatever thin top coat sealer does DIY paint do a top coat...I'm not sure but I will try and find out ☺️
Lel x ❤️
It's just sealer. We put lacquer on our bamboo veneer cabinets. Can be matte, satin, shiny, etc.
Thanks for clearing that up ...X X ❤️

Ha ha you always kero me right Deb.... Ha ha ga
I'm sorry but to me it's just a mess..I would have stripped it and started over...I do like your other work though...you have painted some beautiful projects!
I'm sorry your not a fan of this piece, Art is of course subjective and not everyone has the capicity or appreciation to understand. I guess it's also a case of beauty is in the eye of the beholder because the customer who purchased this piece absolutely loved it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Maybe next time we will make you happy.
