Hot Glue Gun Stencils 

I love these...while watching I had a great idea...use a glass from a picture frame and an easy to trace picture...place the picture right side up under the glass...then use your glue gun to trace over the picture...you can trace some or all of the picture...I've never used this method with a glue gun, but I have made faux stained glass...

Wow to your tower! I tried some stencils for the first time today and basically made a sloppy mess of stencils ha ha. I was immensely proud of them too 😂🤣

Great video and great glue stencils ! I LURVE your videos, you are fun to watch and I always learn something new. I haven't tried this yet but it is on my list of things to do. Thanks for taking the time to make these tutorials, I really appreciate the time and effort you ladies put into it xx

Enjoyed your video immensely! One of the best I've seen. Your ideas are creative, and I must say...you're a pro with that glue gun!! I especially love the words and will be doing a lot of that for Christmas gifts. One suggestion, and I have done this just recently, is to make the design...Shirley, words, etc., and attach to a prepainted ball ornament or Styrofoam ball of any size, then paint the design with glitter nail polish or whatever look you want. Unique and pretty. Thanks...will definitely be watching more of your videos. .and, already subscribed!!

I love your stencils, they would also be great to use with the Gelli plate.

awesome video ! Yvonne how come I never knew you have a RU-vid channel ? How come ??? I am your new subbie :) and I am looking forward to new technique tutorials ! Love, Marta xxx

😍😍😍😍 absolutely LOVED YOUR VIDEO!!!! TFS

Can’t wait to try this! Thx!

new subbed from JB5 on Facebook. Great demo!

Great job!

should I put some kind of oil or something when I am making stenncle's with hit glue because mine are very hard to remove

Can you stick those stencils on a throw pillow? Or would they peel off?

This is mind blowing 😍

What are you making your stencils on? Did you say silicone mat?

What is the surface you are creating the glue gun stencils on?

what kind of paper is that in its green?

Wonderful idea. TFS

What type of mat are you using?

I watched again cool

It's nice

Sorry, should have been "SWIRLEY".....Not Shirley. lol

don't go to karens

Good job Yvonne . One thing I saw on you tube someone sprinkled or rubbed cornstarch on stencils so they wouldn't stick together when stored. I heard through comments that parchment paper works, but you have to wait until totally dry. Wax paper I heard sticks to hot glue ,so probably best to avoid that .

You can reheat the stencils you don't like. I picked up a heat dish (for lack of a better term), reheated glue threads and pieces, then used the melted glue gun cast a-ways for dipping or small area spreading with a toothpick. You can mend a stencil break the same way.

Thanks for your ideas.x Can I offer my own (or ones I've seen elsewhere) ... try using these as actual embellishments...especially the words...paint them (or don't clean them after using them as stencils, the paints stick nicely) stick them on canvases or journal pages. Also when making them I found ages ago that if I took two non stick mats and a placed one on top whilst the glue was still soft I could lightly press down and get a far more even flatter stencil that gives a sharper image. Don't try to peel either away until they cold as usual. Thanks again...new subby here.x

Does anyone make a glue gun that has a "Continuous Flow", because every time I re-pull the trigger it causes clumps!

👍 Fantastic idea for the words ! I have seen a video of using a glue gun to make our own stamps. But I had not thought of making word stamps or stencils. I'm gonna practice practice practice... then never buy stamps again !!! Unless it's a stamp I can't make and really "need"... LOL 🙋 Nana in se OK usa

I like the name of your room…. Art is healing . 😊

Thank fo a great vid. It did seem like you were in a big hurry and that energy was not comfortable. So great to see all your experiments. Wow! Ideas abound. I wanted to know about what you glue gunned onto that resists the glue sticking.

Great idea! I was looking for certain animal stencils and the commercial ones are very cheesy except for a few species, so this might be a way to make more realistic ones simply by tracing a photo to get a nice realistic silhouette of any animal.

When you say the results from spraying aren’ clear, do you mean the designs aren’t sharp. People use terminology sometimes that is not specific for me.

I like your method and your relaxed style. Thanks for sharing.

I LOVE the words! Gonna make myself some of those. ;)

Love your video.

Great video and love your designs. I think I claim any that you made twice.... thanks for sharing.

Baking mat. Great idea

hi Myth new subscriber. loved your glue stencils. 😍😍

Nice than you

Yes . . awesome . . loved them. . 😎 😎 😎

awesome thanks for sharing!!!!

What did you glue on so you could peel it up you might have said it but I missed it.

What type of paper are you putting the glue on to make the stencils?

Fantastic! What do you use for spraying?

so many of these are incomplete...do you press the glue down with something on top? as I see some do..what do you put the glue on? I just tried on plexi and a failure so just bought a silicone...the other thing the mini guns suck ..got a big one now I see you have the long glue stick which shoulda been suggested...who has time to read all the comments with so many you tube...I"m a grannie in hurry to go with projects for my grandkids and this has been annoying but at least still a wonderful resource that people contribute their discoveries...
