The ornament turned out gorgeous & the black really made the flowers become the star of the show. That book is lovely.I'll have to pick one up when I can afford it. Thank You for sharing.Many people didn't do an ornament series this year. Was so happy to see you made some.As far as art I am into advanced crochet, ceramic painting, glass bead embroidery, mixed media art, needlepoint, cross stitch, crewel, etc. love that you moved into a different area with this.😊🌬️❄️☃️🎄
Hi Debbie. Thanks so much for watching! I’m just like you, I love mixing up different crafts. My mom gave me the gift of holiday crafting from an early age. She used to make new ornaments every year and I look forward to it all year long : ) Happy Holidays!
You my dear are the BEST teacher. Love, love, love your videos. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent with us. Also love the “shmear” of paint. I thought I was the only one who used that word. 😂
I love this project!! It's beautiful, and I don't mind one bit that it deviates from the dot art especially at this time of year. Technically, there are dots in the creation of it. Thanks Rachel.
Love it!! Looking forward to your next ornament!!! Need to run out to Michael's to get the ornament and paint!! I love how you are introducing another technique that is suitable for the upcoming holidays!! Thank you for sharing your talent!!
Hi Rachel, I am a newbie here. Lucky to find your chanel. Loved the technique. It's a gr8 tutorial. Bit curious, can I use heavy body acrylic paint for the flowers?
Welcome! Yes. You can use heavy body paint with these bottles. 😊 You will need to use a stronger brush like acrylic or hog hair to move the paint once it’s applied.
I just stumbled onto your channel as I paint and was very interested in these absolutely gorgeous ornaments - definitely want to try - I subscribed to your channel so I can also check out your dotting process as well. Do you reuse the little bottles and tips or do you just have a vast collection of colors? If you reuse them- how do you clean them?
Welcome Leanne! I reuse the bottles. I have 16 filled with my favorite colors that I use all the time. I rarely wash them out. I actually just refill them with similar colors. I have a booklet and a 45 min intro video that goes with my kit. etsy.me/30qFRYJ
Hi Elaine! Welcome. Yes, the only paint I added medium to was the black. All the other ones are thick enough to use straight from the bottle. Most multi surface paints are ready to go : )
