Awesome video. I was anticipating buying some snow to fix my light up snowmen from Avon. They are ancient and have discolored. I painted over the nasty discolored felt and will use your process to make the snow. Appreciate you sharing your talent with us!

What a refreshing video, no crap and to the point!!!!!! Yes, lets get this chit done> Love It!!!! I have 3 dogs, some spots of pee snow would be more natural here, 😁😁!!!!!!!! Working on my project tomorrow using your method. OH yes, must use white paint; baking soda tends to turn yellow in time. Going to look through your other videos. Thank you ever so much; appreciate your video.👍🏻👍🏻

Way cooooool! Thank you for sharing this! If you ever want to make 'chalk paint' for crafts, just go grab one of your dollar store acrylic paints & add some cornstarch to it. Again, no real measurements... maybe a heaping tablespoon to a bottle of those Folk Art paints. Saves loads of money :)

@Em22-wtf Жыл бұрын

Ive tried the cornstarch, but honestly, I really like using an OLD way of making chalk paint that I discovered when it FIRST was being used and the woman that learned of this process went on to be a BIG chalk paint seller and now her chalk paint is sold on AMazon for more money than I can pay for paint....and that is Plaster of Paris! Take it dry and dump it right into your paint! Works fantastic! Granted, Plaster of Paris isnt as cheap as it was when I first started making this, but its still MUCH cheaper than buying already made chalk paint! I just got a 4lb tub of it on Ama zon for a little over $8 and the last carton I bought (its now sold in plastic tubs, apparently, lol) was prob 8 yrs ago, lol, and I still have 1/3 left, but bought a new container of it only bc I wasnt sure if it "goes bad" or not, but also it had dust and stuff in it from using it over the yrs and the carton not closing well at all and it was starting to fall apart. I also add Plaster of Paris to lightweight spackle for a more frosting effect if you want to add that to something and it might even work for a fake snow if you add mod podge, which Ive also done, but used it more for fake frosting on fake food! Lol!

Thanks so much for the tip. I started building a permanent train layout now that I'm retired. For my winter portion of the layout, I struggled to find a reasonably inexpensive way to simulate snow. I even bought a jar of crushed walnut shells and white paint. I will definitely give this a try. I'm guessing I need the hair dryer or a heat gun to get the mixture to foam up?

Awesome! I actually JUST grabbed a small container of this from the thrift shop I volunteer at every week, which I got for 13 cents, lol! It was 25 cents, but I pay half bc I work there....but it is kind of expensive in the craft stores, I think last time I looked, it was a little over $5! Which can def get expensive if you use it for larger projects like I do. Here in the US you can get a 2oz size bottle of Mod Podge from the Dollar Tree, same with the baking soda and paint! So, for around $4 (with tax, and price of DT going up to $1.25) I can now make it myself and make far more than I'd get at the craft store for much less and make it as I need it, rather than have it harden up in the container like the craft store one has done in the past! Thank you so much for this!!!!

@@letartfindyou I will now! But Ill def add sparkle to mine! Lol! I still have the Aileens Fake Snow from the thrift shop, but Im going it through it fast and I think its actually old, whoever donated it had it a long time, lol, Im finding the sparkle isnt as sparkly as it is when you buy it new from the craft store. I came back here after i saved your video to make more of my own, but Ill be adding fine glitter to mine and see if it sparkles more than the Aileens one I have. I do have a feeling its bc its old and maybe the glitter disintegrates after a while, lol!

I wonder if that's true with epoxy as well? I think maybe so. I did a white marble counter and used the white and other colors in the 1st pour and clear top coat (this was 5 yrs ago). It was my 1st attempt at it. I missed a few small spots with the top coat. 5 years later the top coat was ambered. HOWEVER the spots I missed were still white! Zero ambering.

Nooo...when it dries it turns back into dusty baking soda! The glue is important to bind it together! We just made fake snow out of it and within a couple of hours it was dust again.
