I’ve purchased a few design plans from your Etsy shop and they’re fantastic. I put my own little twist on them to fit what my wife needed. Mainly, the legs. I came up with a very efficient way of building the legs that provides not only weight, but allows the backdrop to not take up any space behind it (when standing multiple in an overlapping sequence). Thank you for providing these great blueprints!
Thank you so much for the support! And sounds great that you were able to accommodate multiple backdrops next to each other. I have tried other things such as making the back supports in a 'V' shape so they don't protrude out next to each other. But still looking at options as well. Glad I was able to help!
I use a two-way stretch fabric which is ideal for the line issues - only thing, lettering is not adhesive. My staple gun is my magic tool for everything (love your guys channell!)
Thank you! And yes a staple gun does everything. I have just a hand powered staple gun. But I have been wanting to get the battery powered version just because of its usefulness. lol
Ok, I’m amazed. Seriously. I’ve been trying to figured out the easiest way to cover my round are and foam backdrops for FreakinEver!! And here you go with the simple brilliance.🥹 Thank you. Just Thank you.💪🏾💪🏾
this is sooo great... I'm gonna try add elastic instead of the eyelet things and see if that is a viable option. Thank you so much for taking the time to create this content. really appreciate you wanting to help others learn and grow too.
Love your channel and tutorials, you're amazing! If I may, I would suggest using elastic. You've already created an enclosure, the folded hem (ensure there's enough room for the elastic and a grommet) that you can run your elastic through. Use quality, no roll woven, elastic ensuring its not twisted within. Determine the necessary size piece of elastic just above the bottom edge and pull the elastic through. Add a safety pin to one end of the elastic, gather material onto safety pin and pull elastic through, repeat the gathering and pulling until you've reached the other end. Ensure you've attached the other end of the elastic to the bottom edge with a safety pin to prevent from pulling out. Tack the elastic in place by going back and forth with the sewing machine a few times. Add a grommet in the INSIDE edge of the enclosure (folded hem) on both sides. Attach the grommet to a hook in the board to prevent slipping. Also, download the Joann fabric app. They always have 40-50% off coupons and it would give you a wider selection of material. Thank you
Hi I’m your new subscriber !! ❤❤ love your work and I actually purchased your stencil for the foldable chiara and I loveee it!!! I see that you used grommets and at the time velcro was all I had so I used it instead and so far so good just for those looking for other options 😊
Awesome, thank you for the support! Hmmm I have never tried velcro, I know some people just use thumbtacks as well? Thank you for sharing the info as it gives more people options to work with. When I made it, my mind just went to grommets, but seeing other peoples view definitely opens up more options. Thank you!!
Have you considered using flat sheets? They are already hemmed and even a twin has the width to meet your needs. Best is they also come in various patterns too!
Thank you , yes I’ll try that , my sis told me she knows someone who sews I was thinking too n double it n sew it all together if I get two color material like white n cream color n put it together but one b inside out so if I need white side ,the cream b sewed with shiny side in so it won’t get dirty n if I need cream shiny side for the front just reverse it the white shiny side b in back , I don’t know if I explain it right but if I get that chance I’ll do it I’ll send u a pic ,seen so many now I’ll try the easiest one for me cause I have no motion on my rt hand lost 4 bones wrist so I’m limited so I’ll see what can work for me , thank you for the plans n for ur time , just keep going I love it all
If I don’t mind not using it as a collapsible, and would prefer it just to stay upright all the time; can I use wood filler to get that line unnoticeable, so I’m able to keep painting it as i want. Thanks for your help.
Hi, the best option is to not cut it in the center if you are going to keep using it straight and not fold it. Makes the build so much easier. Just cut the shape and add the legs. Hope this helps and good luck!
@@ninojb9704 yes every week like last week I had them light pink, white and cream this week they're cream,white, light blue and light pink and you can't tell, the butterfly where purple 2 weeks ago last week yellow
I’ve had to use a tablecloth as a last resort. I saw a video showing someone using safety pins. I placed safety pins to each side of the fabric on the back of the board (maybe three on each side) and tied a 260q balloon to each one. I then stretched the 260q to tie to the one on the opposite side ( making it stretch the fabric and hold tight) . It worked out great!
