I love your project-it's so creative and detailed! Could I use cardstock instead of napkin tissue paper? your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you again for sharing your wonderful project with us and thoroughly explained. You have inspired me to attempt making this project. :)
It’s hard to pick out which one project that we’d like the best you are very very talented and the very simply blessed project , will a lighted candle show up inside or twinkle lights? thank you Mary
So cool ! I just need some chalk paint on a mason jar not sure what type of sealer to use to seal it but still keep it Chalky and distressed looking any suggestions? totally love what you just did here☺️
@@OurUpcycledLife ...I've just made my very first sign ...water based walnut stain , antique white chalk paint , sprinkled with rock salt , sanded and with the reverse method from my ink jet printer using mod podge . Waiting for 24 hours to let it dry thoroughly and fingers crossed 🤞Thanks for your videos and reply 😊
Hi, im glad to have found your channel...love ur work. I followed along and made my own chalk paint...painted jars and did reverse transfer on it...but when i rubbed it...the paint came off with the paper and so did some of the writing...can u pls tell me where I went wrong? Thanx a million
Thanks for watching ❤️ you have to make sure the glass is really clean and no oils in it and then let dry really well between coats. When doing the transfer you should only dampen the paper if you use to much water it will lift everything off the glass. ❤️ keep trying
You did a great job. Thanks for sharing. You are very creative and inspiring. How long does the chalk paint have to dry (how much time is needed between the first and the second coat)?
@@OurUpcycledLife Thanks for your reply. My teacher always told me "Stupid questions don't exist" but I'm always trying my utmost LOL: Is it possible to do decoupage on wood, or should the background only be glass?
Is it necessary to paint the jar before decoupaging? I have a vase that is already purple glass and found the perfect napkin that will cover 80% of it hoping no painting is necessary underneath?
Another way to get off a label that doesn't tie up the sink: Wrap the jar with a couple of layers of wet paper towel or napkin, then put this in a plastic bag. Set it aside for a couple of hours or overnight, and the label should slip right off.
You don’t put a coat of mod podge over the napkin once you put it on the jar? I thought once you put the napkin on you go over the top of it after letting it dry over night? Or that’s what I’ve heard. Lol
I actually like the poly acrylic sealer to go over the napkins. It gives a smoother finish and dries really quick but that is juts my personal favorite way to do it other would work too ♥️
