Good morning. I'm sure you can "decoupage" the tissue paper to a candle. But would the paper not catch fire when the candle burns? Maybe not with the right glue? I'm sorry that I don't have a solid answer for your question. Enjoy your week!
i AM SO HAPPY TO HAVE COME ACROSS THIS VIDEO! I wasn't looking forward to all that goes into avocado dying. Using pink paint looks a whole lot less time consuming! Thank you!
Good morning. I got the paper bead rollers from Etsy, just type in: paper bead roller, and some will come up. Then you just pick the one you think would work best. I had to write the size on the wood as it was not very clear. But I'm sure you can find it on Amazon as well. Have a great day!!
Thanks for your fantastic tutorial. Very easy to follow. For anyone in Australia who might be interested: I bought a pack of 100 sheets of tissue paper in Big W a few months ago for tracing dress patterns. I think it would also be great to use for printing. The brand name is Jot&Dot and the sheets are 50 x 75 cm so they'll last a long time!
Hi, I mostly use regular copy paper, which is usually 20lb, but if you want a bit more weight to it I recommend a 24lb paper, it gives it a bit more body and feels a bit more professional. If you want to go all out, you could use a 28lb paper. You'd have to shop around for it, as I don't know if a Staples kind of store carries that. But then there is the internet...🙂🙂 Hope this helps and have a great day!!
when you iron the paper afterwards to set the colours, do you cover the printing with anything first or just put your iron straight onto the paper? thankyou
Hi, I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I just found this comment yesterday! You can use a this cloth between the paper and the iron to protect the iron from potential dye, but I have not found it necessary, so either way would work. Hop this answers your question. Have a great day!
Thank you sonmuch for being generous to let us know about the website for free downloads, nobody does that I watched over 30+ videos. Also thank you for telling how to enlarge the picture or make it smaller ones to print . Also i am planning to buy a printer but I didn't want to invest in lazer printer if you can confirm does ironing the image that I print in an inkject printer would stop the bleeding of color or I need to use couple of layers of hair spray as most people suggest. Awaiting for your response so that I can decide to buy the right printer for my Art work . Thank you
Thank you for your kind words. As for buying a printer, if I had the funds, I would invest in a laser printer, but oh well, I don't. I find that letting the print rest for a few hours and then ironing on the highest setting reduces the bleeding enough for me to adhere it to a background. I personally don't like the smell of hairspray and never tried it. But if that works also, and you are okay with that, then that certainly is another solution. By using hairspray one covers the print with a thin "protective" layer, vs ironing one basically "sets" the ink. I do think when applying the ironed image to another paper by using a lot of glue and brushing more than necessary, the ink might smear a bit. but once a coat of glue as been applied and dried, it is run proof. I hope you find this useful, have a great day!!
I tried laminating them to make them last longer. I skipped the sewing process and just used beacon or clear gorilla glue to adhere the 📎 inside it keeps moving. Please help me I don’t know what to do to make the paperclips stay in place. 🧐😕
So the paperclip still moves even when you used the gorilla glue? The reason I used the sewing machine was so that the paperclip would stay in place, I just "tacked" it at the bottom to prevent it from coming up during use. I hope this helps a bit? Have a great day!!
Hi Carla, thank you for your interest. I like to play with the small ones like a stamp with a stencil between the paper and the small gel plate. I don't sell them, I just had fun making and using them. 🙂
I don't soak the papers for 10 minutes, they get very fragile and might tear. Depending on the strength of the dyebath, as in how much paint vs water, I usually get the paper wet and remove it after maximin of 30 seconds and then set to dry. Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend!
Thank you for stopping by! I looked at the video again and I would change the way I glue the three or four strips together that form the hinge for the cards. My suggestion would be to glue the three pages that are going to be the hinge together, about an inch close to the spine, and then cut them shorter. Have a great rest of your day!!
I can not wait to try this method of adhering the tissue paper! I’ve tried double sided tape, attaching to printer paper or card stock and no matter how “perfect” I think I have it taped on- I always get the ink blobs. This will be a game changer for me! Thank you for sharing! 🤗
Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment, I hope with this method you don't have ink "blobs" anymore. Do watch for the corners, that they are adhered nicely, otherwise the tissue will curl up while being dragged into the printer, I had that happen once. Happy creating!!
Very nice binding technique and your books front cover is something I'd like to try. I read the answer on 'how' you made the cover and will definitely give this a try. Thanks for sharing. Happy creating magic!
Thank you for your comment, the front cover is indeed not that difficult to make, just try it out on a piece of paper to see if you like the colours. Have great week, and yes, happy creating!!
@@lizzandrews9968 I did make sets of a pendant for a necklace and earrings to match, the earrings have shorter cores, so they are not as long. But I also have some just sitting pretty in a nice jar. 🙂
@@dianneoberski2212 Yes, I've also seen them used that way, for the right journal and the right percipient, it would be a nice additive. I myself have not used them in that way, but now that you mention it, I might just add a boho bead to the next journal!
Hi Elana, thank you for your comment! You can find more videos if you click on my name, which will bring you to my channel, if you then click on videos, you will find the content I made. Happy watching!!
Hello, I don't have a video on how to create the cover, if you like, I can make one. But it is quite simple: I braided strips of cardstock to create the background of squares, I glued that to a piece of chipboard (the stuff that is on the back of drawing paper and such) then I added the leaf design using a thick paste through a stencil and painted everything black. Then I added highlights with metallic paints in a few colours like copper, teal and gold. If I didn't like the outcome, I could just paint it black and try again. I'm sure I tested it out on a piece of scrap paper first 🙂 I hope this helps, have a great day!!
Your process is easy with clear instructions step by step. I liked the way you prepared pieces ahead of time so we are not wasting time while you string stuff. Good tutorial for creative bead making! ❤
Hi, I'm sorry that the result didn't show up on camera as I hoped, but it is there, with the lighting it is hard to see. I encourage you to try it out anyway. Thanks for the feedback.
Greetings from OZ 🇦🇺😎 I just came across your boho beads tutorial & subscribed xx Great tutorial !!! I will attempt these with my 8 year old granddaughter ..... she loves to spend time in my craftroom, she says its like a big treasure chest 😂🤣😂 I have to agree 🤗🤗 TFS I will be binge-watching your vids xxx
Hi Pauline, thanks so much for stopping by and subscribing, that is much appreciated. I'll be doing the same, one of these days I'll be making these with my granddaughters as well. I'm sure your granddaughter is going to love it!! Take care and have a great week. 😊😊
Thank you for your clear explanation about layering. As a total beginner, I've watched other videos but it feels a bit like maths to me so I didn't get it and you have helped make it clearer! ❤
