🤯 YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT I MADE USING $1 NAPKINS | FALL NAPKIN HACKS YOU MUST SEE! 

Kristen, take a paint brush, dip it water, lightly wet the edges of the napkin and gently pull the excess edges from the napkin to make it smaller. When you mod podge it down, start from the center and work outwards. The frayed edges of the napkin will blend in and look nicer. Also, when using a sanding block, sand in a downward motion (one direction) and not back and forth. That will tear the napkin. Just a few tips for you! I decoupage alot and those tips helped me when I started out. Hope they help you, too! I LOVE those napkins, btw!!!!

Hi Kristen, don't know if anyone told you yet, here's a tip, each napkin has either 3 ply or 2 ply, try to separate them and then use only the one with the design. Then jus put mod podge on the top of it, less wrinkles. I got the tips from Jody craft corner. But overall you did a good job. I love you projects. Thank you and God bless.

Everything you made was super cute ❣️ I love how you showed everything, even the things you thought didn't work so well. 🤗

Love...love...love the napkins!!! And the $$$$ !!!

I think they turned out super cute. Sometimes the little imperfections are what makes them special. You did a great job!!

Loved these. The shadow box where you added the extra pumpkin to the corner was adorable. It gave it a 3D effect.

I love your crafts! Each one came out really pretty and I can’t wait to make them myself! Even though you made mistakes, I like that, you are honest because nobody is perfect! Keep up the good work!

The iron method works well, especially on the house shape or any flat surface. Brush on modpodge, place napkin, cover with parchment paper & iron. You did a great job. Adding the rope or twine was a great idea.

I think they each turned out cute. The last house was my favorite

Your sassiness and honesty about all the things like gluing your foot to the floor, which you mentioned in a casual manner are just some of the reasons I love watching your videos. I love all the napkin things too! More more more please

Love all of these! I also appreciate your honesty....thanks for sharing!

Love all the Tier tray ideas. Bring them on! Thanks again

I love your tutorial and the fact that you are open to put it all out there. Everyone is not a professional and there is room for all crafters! Thanks for sharing

My favorite is actually the one you shredded! I love what you did with these napkins and I’m going to give it a shot! 😬

These came out adorable Kristin! 😍 It is very tricky getting the napkins on a surface without them wrinkling. I've tried different methods and some work sometimes and others work other times. But something I recently started doing is applying a little adhesive spray. DT has several types of adhesive spray and they work great. I don't spray the whole surface but just a spritz here and there. It helps keep the napkin in place until you get the mod podge on. The mod podge will penetrate the napkin so you don't always have to apply it first. I painted the roof of a small birdhouse with mod podge. I let it dry then placed the napkin on it and used a heat gun to attach it. A heat gun also works in place of an iron. The napkin went on beautifully and this is the only time I tried the burning method of removing the excess napkin. I actually went outside and set the edge on fire. It burned all the way around the roof and it smelled like toasted marshmallows! 😚 But you did very well with these projects, especially if this was your first time. Wrinkles will happen, almost every time. But sometimes they add character to the piece and make them more interesting. 😉 But we are our own worst critic. Everything you made was adorable! And with time and practice, you won't be so hard on yourself. It takes a lot of patience to decoupage with napkins. Some days I don't have enough patience so I save it for another day. ☺️ You also got some very beautiful napkins! That's half the battle. I'm finally finding more selections of napkins but I see crafters who find gorgeous ones. I kind of wish there was some type of co-op where people could exchange napkins. When you get a package of 14 or 18 and only use a couple, it would be nice if you could trade with someone who has other patterns. Thanks for sharing another great video! 🤩

Really cute crafts , I learned the hard way when sanding off napkins only use downward strokes and it gives you the perfect edge , love all your videos

Love that you show wins, misses and fixes.

🤣🤣🤣How are we going to have Thanksgiving dinner without napkins in August? 🤣🤣🤣 That was sooooo funny! I'm still giggling!

I love every one of your projects, So many cute ideas and I love that you are real. You admit your faults because we all have them and you seem to be able to laugh at yourself because that’s important too! I’m glad you did not have any more tragedies, God bless you! Look forward to more of your videos. I will definitely be following you! Good job!

Napkins are such a challenge but I loved all the crafts. You are so honest!

Improfections are beautiful, I love all your crafts. Thank your for sharing your skills.

Who knew you could turn Fall napkins into beautiful Fall decor.

Oh gosh glue your foot to the floor!!!!🤣 Love it, cracked me up. Love your diys ❤️

these are gorgeous!! loved these so much. I'm definitely going to try them.

Those are beautiful napkins on all these projects!

Love your laid back approach. You are a warm fuzzy!!

You did a great job on the little boxes with napkins inside.

Love using napkins too! They all look amazing! Can't wait to find some new ones for Fall. As always love what you make.

So far what I'm seeing, I'm loving. I just saw theses napkins last week. I need to go back and get them.

Cute projects. I use a clean brayer to knock down the crinkles when using napkins. It doesn’t get rid of them but it does flatten them

I like the little shadow boxes you made w the twine. Nice job!

As always love EVERYTHING u do!!!!!

They all looked super cute!!

Loved all the napkin DIYs- so glad to see your creativity w/o using your cricut😉

This is my first time watching your channel. I’m in love. Thank you.

These all turned out super cute! Love the napkins!!!

Great diys!! I think they all came out awesome!!

I love that you show your mistakes!! It makes me feel better about my oopsies. ♥️

I think they all came out super cute

You are so funny. Just love you so much, truly made my day. And really loving all the napkins.

The pumpkin with t&e wrinkly napkins looks vintage especially after you brushed on the wax paint. Sometimes mistakes are a blessing.

Everything turned out very nicely you did a great job don't be hard on yourself it's just a craft project enjoy the moments with your ideas 😀 great 👍 😀 😊

You make me laugh! We could be sisters in how we do our projects! Yes I love tier trays and would love videos of ideas!! Thanks my dear!

All your projects were adorable!

Awesome job! Thank you for another wonderful video... Love your channel ❤️

Happy Thursday beautiful Kristin! Very beautiful decors pieces!

I love ALL OF YOUR DIYS KRISTEN! AMAZING JOB GIRL! LOVE THEM ALL SO MUCH!!!

Kristen, thank you for sharing your mishaps! I felt like the only crafter that's clumsy lol! I glued my fingers together, I singed my hair & on n on! You're such a great crafter! I get so much inspiration from your videos!

Your creativity blows me away! Thanks for the inspiration you give me with all of you beautiful creations. It’s great share and learn with others what we create. Keep learning as you grow. I’d love to learn more from each other’s channels. Let your talent keep shining bright.

I love your ideas I think they're adorable

I think the Mason jar and the 2 pumpkin one in the box are my favorite i think they cam out super cute.

Just loved them all! Napkins are like artwork!

These are all so beautiful for fall. I have found that if you let your napkin dry completely and then put the Mod Podge on, it doesn't wrinkle or bubble.

I think they look great! My husband always reminds me that these little imperfections are what separate the "mass produced" from hand made. I see the imperfections of what I make, but no one else will. We are so self-critical! Sounds like you got some great tips below.

I think they all turned out so cute! I think my favorites are the jar and the box with the extra pumpkin. I really like them all! I love tiered tray decor. Yes, please!

Heyy Kristin! You did an outstanding job on all these decoupage crafts!! They all turned out sooo cute 😍. Girl, you are a hoot 🦉 lol. I respect that you're real and show us you're human like us..flaws and all. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Be blessed 😘

Lol you crack me up girl! Glued your foot to the floor?? 😂 I love your diys and that you’re real with us ❤

Beautiful diys and thank you for sharing your talents with us 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

They are all so cute, great ideas 🎃🎃 thanks

I became addicted to tier trays (and making items for them) this past year. I have one in almost every room! You always do such great things. Thanks for your efforts in sharing with us.

Craft iron is amazing. Super smooth

Your projects are adorable!

These are all so adorable ☺️ A tip I heard from another crafter was to dip a paint brush in water and dab it around the image you want to use and gently tear away the image then after you modpoge it down use parchment paper n lay it over the image to press down on it, it actually does help with some of the wrinkles. Either way these are all so pretty as are all your crafts 😊

You are so entertaining to watch! 🙂 I would like to see a tiered tray video.

So cute. One thing I do is make sure the napkin is only one layer. It makes it stick better. Love the mason jar.

Love your ideas and inspiration very cute items thank you for sharing Theola

Love all of the napkins projects. They are all beautiful !!

No never cringing, love your diys.

I have seen other crafters use saron wrap to help smooth out the wrinkles when working with napkins.. I would also suggest sanding downward instead of side to side, it makes a much nicer finish. Thank you for sharing your crafts!

Super cute! Try sanding in a downward motion vs back & forth. You can also do the iron method on flat surfaces to prevent wrinkles.

Love your honesty. Makes is so much cooler.

Loved all of your ideas, very creative.

Everything you do is so cute. stop saying I'm not that great. because you are great!!! I totally loved the shadow boxes. I am making those for sure for my girls to decorate with.

You are the most talented person ever!!!

Love these napkin diys TFS

The little burlap pumpkin really worked. Love the tray with the truck.

It's a good idea to work with small sections, but you'll have bubbles and wrinkles as well! Small imperfections are charming!

❤️ love using napkins thanks for sharing

The wooden boxes w/the napkins inside turned out REALLY REALLY cute! Give yourself some grace. ❤️ Since you didn't seem so keen on them, maybe try laying the box on the napkin & tracing around it to cut it to the exact size of the inside? 🤷🏼‍♀️

I like them all! Good job! As for crinkles, I truly believe it looks meant to be. It added to the look. 😊

Hi Kristin everything turned out great and very very pretty 👍 TFS have a beautiful day 🐝 safe and God bless you and your family !

Lots of cute projects here and you are always fun to hang out with, thank you!

Those were some cute projects!

I just subscribed ❤️ I love that you showed the good and the bad ones. You are my kind of people 🤠❤️🤠

Yes I want to see your tier tray ideas!!

I absolutely love your klutzy stories! They have a familiar ring to them! Love these craft projects too!😊❤

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing your adventures with flooding and gluing. I've got the battle wounds to prove my mishaps from attempting things in my own home. I pretty much am banned from cutting things (when my husband is around) and I definitely am especilly cautious with fire! Love your crafts and always enjoy and look forward to your videos! 😺

I really loved all your diys I think they turned out so cute.tfs

I love you sense of humor and I love your crafting 🤠🤠 from Dallas Texas

I understand the lighter thing. They all look great!

I loved all of these but I think the jar is my favorite. Those napkins are super cute, what a great find!

I loved them all. Great ideas.

Kristin you are too funny!!!! But i love it... Your projects turned out so cute. TFS with us can't for some more.😀

They were all so nice and cute

All absolutely adorable

Those napkins were the bomb! You did a great job on them!

We are always going for that aged look, a little crinkle in the napkin gives it that country charm.

I love tiered trays. I have 7 now and the materials for 2 more. I would love to see as many tired tray decor that you want to make.

Love what you did with the napkins 💕💕. I would love to see more💕💕

Absolutely loved all your projects! All of them are so easy to make!
