I like art tutorial books, they are great when you don't know what to do, like a watercolor tutorial book and using watercolor markers or pencils instead. Or even acrylics who knows but its fun to try a different supply or just changing it to make it your own

Colorful Collage did a test of 10 different glues she uses for collage, including the Yes paste, and it did indeed yellow. I recommend watching her video for some alternative craft glues. I don't think she noticed the yellowing while she was testing, but you can see it on the video (along with some of the other glues). Congratulations on selling out the Italy event!

If you like cocktails, make alcohol-free versions and enjoy reading on the deck! I used to fix a drink when I got home from work, but I live alone, there are others with alcohol problems in my family, and I thought this is not a healthy pattern! So I would come home, fix my virgin drink, and sit down to unwind. Do you know it was every bit as effective to unwind? It was the ritual I needed! Since then, I have limited myself to drinking alcohol in socially only. So fix yourself a mocktail and get out on that deck!

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

That's a great idea! Why didn't I think of that?

@KatiesCraftStudio 27 дней назад

@jimflack9462 27 дней назад

I too live alone and have alcoholism in my family background. After my wife passed, I was led down a dangerous path. But good sense and two very caring adult children with love and watchfulness and that path took another direction, but I an still very cautious. Mocktails are a viable alternative. I even have found an alcohol free beer!

I used Yes paste to cover my first sketchbook covers, I love that stuff. It's super low-moisture compared to other glues so I never have problems with the paper wrinkling or air bubbles. My paste was years old and had turned a tan color but it did not change the performance. Love, love, love my first sketchbook. Thanks again for that video!

@ShwetaC 27 дней назад

Another great SatChat ❤ Btw, I stopped alcohol consumption completely recently because of empty calories and I can relate because I used to do exact same, have a glass of wine with reading. Since then I have replaced it with different teas, if it’s afternoon and I need caffeine then green tea, if I want caffeine free but a bit peppy version I’ll go for peppermint and if it’s night and I’m almost ready for bed, sleepytime tea. I had my doubts about would it relax my tense mind enough, but they do work great… good for health, wallet and you can freaking drive after having some if you want to 😊🎉

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

Yes! The empty calories were a factor too.

@brendawalsh8254 27 дней назад

I have an idea… pour water into the wine glass and take it out on the balcony and read or paint. Maybe just using that wine glass will trigger the same relaxing vibes.

Hullo Lindsay, I believe that you as well as everyone else going to Italy 🇮🇹 will be having a wonderful time! You are truly inspirational and I can see how quickly your trip sold out! I have no plans to leave my home for any other country ever again! I enjoyed watching your feature’s videos from your France trip! I have hopes to go to an art retreat in the southwest like Arizona? I have seen a few videos on locations in upstate New York! That is so close to where you live it might not seem like a big deal to you? I do enjoy watching SatChat, I have seen your blue and white polka-dot dress before and the hair accessory is truly lovely! Thank you for sharing all of your thoughts, I gotta comment (as so many others have) on buying art supplies over paying for medical procedures to create a differing illusion of one’s self! You young lady are truly lovely just as you are! Thank you for sharing another wonderful SatChat with us all! OH! I have stopped using most glues on my artworks, the one exception is that glue we use for book binding it is ph neutral and dries clear! Ah PVA Glue!

@nancyclemmensen 27 дней назад

Hey Lindsay, "madhabitz" here -- when this came up before I posted about Grandmother Stover's stikflat glue that is virtually the same stuff as Yes! paste, but it's at those old prices. I paid $9.80 not long before the discussion about it -- now it's up to $11.95 with a 5%-off coupon. Etsy has it for $9.99, and eBay has it for $6.98. As for using it for colllage, the stuff is archival, but save it for bookcloth pasting onto bookboards. Use it in a thin layer. For what it's worth, a lot of book artists cook up a wheat paste for pasting bookcloth to boards, but you'd want to use PVA (the archivao stuff}, not the white school glue people started calling PVA a few years ago. They are *not* the same thing. As far as the moldy problem goes.... just make small batches. There are tons of YT videos on how different people do it -- takes only a few minutes to make.

You might could replace your wine with sparkling water in a special glass to still trigger yourself to wined down and relax. My husband is 2 years sober this month and drinks topo chico sparkling water glass bottles as they feel very similar to a cold beer. They are very crip and lovely to drink if you like fizzy drinks. You can also add lemon, lime or any flavors you like to they. You could even put real fruit (frozen or fresh berries) in the bottom of a champagne glass and pour the water on top and sip away. Nonetheless, I'm happy for you as you choose a healthier lifestyle either way you go about it. My cut back needs to be sweet treats; I just love sugar and chocolate things 😋

I don't know if I missed hearing it, or if he just didn't go last time, but I think it's fantastic that Jason's going with you and you're going to add a vacation on to your Italy trip. I think you should add as much time as you can afford, before or after the workshop, and really enjoy yourselves. From the vantage point of 49 years of marriage, one thing we never did enough of was to travel, just the two of us. (One memorable trip we did do was to travel to Bar Harbor 11 years ago. We had a fantastic time, apart from discovering the hubs gets extremely seasick on our whale watching tour! We went home via Jackson,NH and "did" Mt Washington in our itty bitty Yaris. We both decided we could live there, without a doubt.) So you're both young and healthy and mostly unencumbered with children - get in all those experiences! You will not bemoan that priority when you're retired and less able to do such things, I promise you.

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

Great advice, especially now the kids are old enough to watch the pets!

@nancyleigh-smith2796 27 дней назад

Re wheat paste alternative. I use gloss medium (varnish) by Liquitex for my book covers and most gluing situations. If I want extra hold I use gel medium (adhering watercolour paper to wood).

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

Great tip! I have plenty of that too. I really liked the slow drying aspect of the paste but it's not essential. The ge medium disnt dry too fast.

@kathleennakata8850 27 дней назад

Congrats that your Italy class filled quickly! Does not surprise me at all! I used to use Yes Glue years ago. And it was much cheaper then. $10 for the large size at my then local stamping store. I just looked online and it is ridiculously expensive. I saw one price at $39 for the large size. I haven't used it in years, but it's definitely time to find another option that is more affordable.

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

Oh wow!

@TaraDreams 27 дней назад

Never tried Yes paste but I have tried Nori paste which is a tapioca starch paste. It is readily available at least here in the UK from art supply, bookbinding supply or printmaking supply shops (It can also be used for woodblock printing). Another option is Methylcellulose. It makes a very repositionable paste but isn't the strongest adhesive on its own. It is often used by bookbinders in a mix with PVA glue to give a longer time to reposition/ adjust bookcloth or endpapers etc with the strength of the PVA.

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

Good to know 😌

@EveVaneczek 20 дней назад

I’ve never used the “Yes Paste” but I’ve been working on a collage piece recently and needed something thicker and grabbier than the matte medium I was using so I used the Golden brand “high solid gel” it’s basically modeling paste but with acrylic solids instead of powdered marble, it’s FABULOUS, dries clear, and it definitely sounds cheaper than those new Yes Paste prices

Hey Lindsay, Need some advice. Trying to put together Paint Alongs for extra income & something easy to do. Need budget friendly advice for brushes. Thinking maybe two flats, two rounds, and a liner brush for each person. Sets have too many sizes. Will keep canvas to about 11 x 14. Should I get tube paints or liquid acrylic or craft paints which would be less expensive? Do I need table easels or can we use a rolled towel or tube to prop the little canvases on? Would probably need this for maybe 12 to 15 people. Thanks! Lesley from Boynton Beach, Florida 😊

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

I think it would depend on how often you will do it. I know Michael's has bulk acrylics, canvasses and easels for paint parties. I'd check that first. I'd probably get 1/2 gallon bottles with pumps for paint. The Blickcrylic was always good. They sell a pack of pints if you aren't sure if you will use so much: shrsl.com/4nskt Brush choice sounds fine. Blick also has the zen all media brushes which hold up well.

Thank you so much!! I think so. It's scary to pu something big out there I think. You are going to have a blast in France, the location is gorgeous and the hosts are the sweetest couple!

Interesting… In one chat you talked about a European retreat in Italy - - as well as farting, toilets, & upchucking- classy! On the other hand, you seem to be very productive if you did all those paintings in one week! Can you hold your paintings up for a little bit longer next Sat Chat? You take them down so fast I don’t have a chance to get to really look , and you do have nice work. (That’s one of the reasons why I am here. ) in fact, i replayed the beginning & tried to hold on ea painting to view them. Haha Thank You SARA

Happy Sat Chat! You really had your "Marilyn" vibe going this morning! Love it!! Congrats on selling out your Italy trip! People know a good thing when they hear of it! Best wishes to your daughter on her semester abroad. My friend's daughter recently spent a semester in Ireland and said it was wonderful. Such a privilege to be able to study like that. Have a good week!!😊

@thefrugalcrafter 27 дней назад

Thank you, I am very excited for her. She figured it out all herself too which makes me very proud.

When you were talking about making your own paste and mold It came to mind that I make my own spray starch with flour and or potato or rice starch and it's called hooch spray because you add vodke or 91% rubbing alcohol to prevent it molding. I've had it under my kitchen sink for months at a time and no mold, Maybe that would work with homemade paste.

How wonderful that your Italy retreat sold out so quickly! I am so happy for you! I also still have doubts about whether people want what I make or if it is a fluke. I did so well on my Ginger Treasure Box and am just about ready to release the next box - a Halloween one called "Critter Coven". It has taken two months to create and write the 17 patterns and get the stuff for the kits ready, so I really feared that no one would want it. So much work! (So much RISK!) But I mentioned in passing that it was up for pre-order on my site and it has done well already - and I haven't even done the official release yet. So I was encouraged and pleasantly surprised and it keeps me moving forward. Do we ever develop confidence in ourselves? I mean - I have 'some' but I still fear every time I do something new. I was so happy to see your title today.

It's imposter syndrome and I feel it every time I launch a class or Product. I think it's natural. If you didn't feel it then it would mean you didn't care about what you do.

lol, Sat Chat is like a box of Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans! That golden brown bean could be a nice toffee or, “Alas! Eat wax!” If you don’t want alcohol, what about a mocktail or just a special drink that’s non-alcoholic? I like to add a splash of grape juice or crab-grape to seltzer water for something tasty that feels special. I’m glad you’re feeling better!

Happy Sat chat morning to you! ☕️ Congrats on selling out on the Italy retreat so fast! I HAVE to get dressed to feel fully "awake and up". I am not a lounge in my jammy jams all day type of person, even when sick. It's a thing. I've never thought of cleaning the toilet before getting sick. Might trick myself into NOT yucking it up with...yuck 🤢😅 Love all you do Lindsay! Have a great weekend! ✨️
