DIY VELLUM PAPER |3 DIFFERENT OIL OPTIONS 

Good tests... Fyi, argan oil will go rancid [i.e. smell foul] over time because it is plant based... Baby oil = mineral oil + fragrance. I will use a cheap 'chip/paint' brush to apply MINERAL oil (I have on hand).

I love that your daughter bonds with you by crafting along, it’s sooo cute!

Oooh, love the idea of making patterned vellum! Thanks for running these tests and sharing your process and results.

Thank you so much for this “tip”, what a fantastic hack! 😄

I love to make faux vellum using acrylic varnishes. I use spray varnish on napkins and use brush on varnishes with paper. My favorite being tea dyed tracing paper. It turns out perfectly translucent and seals the paper to a much stronger texture as well. I also prefer argan oil over baby oil. Most people don't have it on hand but it soaks into skin and paper very well. Great video!

This was a very interesting and well done. . . experiment? Before I jump wholeheartedly into oiling papers, have you tried stacking your argan oiled paper with untreated papers and seeing if the oil transfers? I am very curious about this. Thanks.

Loving This Vellum Tutorial! 🤩🤩🤩

Thanks for making this video....I can't wait to give this a try.

i love vellum.its way too good to make one on ur own as i m so so so into custom made things

Im so excited about this idea! I love vellum and to be able to make my own!!! FANTASTIC! Thank you for sharing this Vanessa! Have a beautiful day! 😊❤🌻

Really cool 👍

Ok ... I got some Argan oil. It works FANTASTIC. And mineral oil is SUPER. I found out that if you put the oil on the reverse of something you've printed, especially using an inkjet printer, you can turn it into a vellum sheet.

I love the tanning oil smell, too! And, if you did go outside & layout, that’s ok!

Very interesting TYS

Interesting

Yay...you recorded your project...what a cool project.. thank you! ❤❤❤

This was so interesting. Thanks for trying so many varieties.

I was just about to purchase some vellum paper & your hack came up 😃! Maybe I’ll purchase Aragon Oil instead 😉! Thanks for sharing ! 💚🌹

Very 😎 cool

Does the oil you used turn rancid? I saw on another channel that cooking oil turned rancid. So idk if it’s the same principal with these products. Thanks!

Hi! Can we print with thede for certificates?

Love, Love, Love this Vanessa TYFS... Vellum can get very expensive for design ones.... So excited to try this!! :-)

I wonder if coconut oil or Tim Holtz distress glaze would work?

Who knew? Tfs And I have some of that oil!!!

Thankyou so much for this tip ma'am .. i tried using hair serum and it showed great result while applying but as it started drying, it looked blotchy again and paper started showing up. How do i fix it??

i think I heard you live in Canada could tell me where you find the Argan oil.Love this idea and Thank you for sharing,

Have you tried Fractionated Coconut Oil? Wondering if that would work???

I was thinking coconut oil, it would probably act the same as argan oil?

can i use cocunut oil

What can I make with this paper?

Great super interesting project! Can you inkjet print on these papers? Thank you! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Can you use stamps on it?

Oil cook oil is good.too

Okay. I've never heard of 'vallium paper' until today & I'm super intrigued... is this regular printer paper?

Just use plain old mineral oil, that’s what baby oil is, and you don’t need the added fragrance. It’s cheaper too. 😉

You really need an asmr channel 😍

The copy paper with the argon oil would be great to stamp on.

That was cool👍👍now you must show us what you do with it😁🐝

I remember doing this when i was 7 y/o. I accidentally poured too much oil on the paper and it was a nightmare to clean it all up before my mother got back lol. But the oil i used was my mother's hair oil which had a strong smell so yeah.... I did get an earfull😂

Hello, just a comment, I've been watching several videos, on oils as well, it's seems most of these first experiments failed, only becuz they tried to let dry by itself, then most of them now finished up by using paper towels, which dries , plus soaks up any extra oil, u may want to try laying paper towels down first, and last after each completion of soaking with oil. Thanx

I have always just used cooking oil(veggie or olive) It will dry without a greasy feel

Actually vit E in oils help you to tan quicker and healthier. Unless you're not used to it and then oil will turn you into red and sunburnt. Aloe vera for that though. Kinda have to build up the sun contact hours in summer, or use oil everyday even in winter. People used oils and butter before sunscreen. Also Aloe vera. I prefer it over sunscreen because as an Asian I need more sunshine (vit.d) in the Netherlands so I love using tanning oils. With sunscreen I would lack in vit. D more. And without tan I look sick in winters 🤣 and without vit D have depression 😅. I love the technics. I prefer buying vellum because of the oily feeling. But I can see myself using this technic on paterned paper and already printed on paper.

What is " a while"? It would be better if you timed the process. Thanks for sharing.

Mix your Hawaiian troops with the oil for the smell

Why would it matter if you used it to tan. There is nothing wrong with doing that. Sorry that just caught my attention, tfs

What about vegetable oil?

I heat dry my papers
