When I started making chalk paint, I went to thrift store and bought a little hand mixer. It works great in a round bowl. ❤🇨🇦

Ty for sharing this information!

❤❤❤❤❤❤ thank you!!

Love this!!☕️

Outstanding! I'm new and hooked! Super video...was that crickets curping? Sweet!

This is my first tutorial that I'm watching from you, may I just say thank you for your nice calm tone voice and that you're not rushing through the project. I say this because I am a beginner in a lot of different crafting projects. I am going to subscribe I already hit the like button and left a comment and I would like to say I look forward to going through your tutorials and seeing what I can learn or maybe enhance my project a little better because again I am a beginner and I'm proud to say that. I do have a question and you possibly already have done something like this but I love chalk paint and I've been using cornstarch and it works really well for me as it's just a backdrop color and then I create out of napkins I make them into rice paper and then I Modge Podge them on top and it's beautiful in my eyes. I do apologize for going into a very long story but with me being brand new I figured it would be okay this one time to let you know a little about myself and that's why I went into the pretty good detail in what I like I am a scrapbooker but I also love pretty much everything when it comes to the DIY world. N I just seen that I can hit And subscribe to your email I'm going to do that right now. It would be nice to hear back from you it doesn't have to be on this channel you could just send me an email if you would like did you ever work with cornstarch and paint on possibly small projects as the composition notebooks are my favorite and they turn out great in my eyes so have you done anything like that and if so maybe you can tell me where how far along to go to find it or maybe you haven't I think if you haven't maybe try it and see because I've done the plaster and it it got really do Beyond me and so I don't think my ratios were correct from a different KZfaqr that of course I just type it in and it pops up I'm truly excited to go back in to see what you've done and I look forward to your projects and also again let me know what you think about the paint with and I pick up the Dollar Tree paint also Walmart has the same pain for a dollar you don't get great colors but you know like I said I turn it into the chalk paint let it dry and then I do the rice paper from my napkin, and I will let you know a little bit more about that as it's regarding a business question oh, I'm so excited I love just seeing new people for me the first time and just supporting that way because it takes a lot for anybody to get up and do anything and then edit in all of that so congratulations with your Channel again I don't comment a whole lot of things and also I'm Italian so it's really hard to stop a conversation with me but I enjoy this I love meeting new people this way and learning new craft so thank you again and I'll get on that email list and hopefully I can send you that business question I was going to put on here but that's very unprofessional thank you so much Debbie

you jusy saved me a lot of money Thank you

really lovely work!

Thank you for this tutorial.

Yes, the graphic is so cute please share! I was not expecting you to rub off the paper, I was mesmerized.

I have painted a number of furniture pieces with this recipe for Chalk paint. It last and stays on great.

I LOVE your style

Love this video. New subscriber and will continue to watch your videos. Thanks 🙂

I love it! Great display piece.

I love it ❤️

Great idea!

Thank you Diedra

I am in love with your site. I watch it on TV and that is why I don't comment. I am a die-hard recycle/upcycle girl.

This is Awesome I'moving. You and Your Channel-!!

Thanks very much for the hacks❤

Thanks!

Joy🤭😅🙏🥳🥳🥳, why havent I seen this before,❤️👍👍

So pretty

Thank you :)

I buy sherwin williams samples. $8 or less for a quart. Work great for chalk paint. Even just on its own it holds up good especially with topcoat on small stuff like pots ect. I also use calcium carbonate instead of plaster of Paris

Really nice craft.

I just bought a 2 metal kettles at a church rummage sale today (saw them in corner on their flyer and wanted it so specifically went for that but got extra)… but I love the pumpkin idea. Also thinking of other things halloween theme now.

That's pretty easy , i use a lot of chalk paint for my projects

Beautiful

I’m laughing as I watch the various videos you have created. I come up with a question at the end of each video , but I have not needed to post the question, low and behold, you have made another video that answers that question!

Thank you so much for this. I made some chalk paint yesterday and when I opened the container this morning, it had water floating on the top. Shall I tip this away, or stir it in. Many thanks xxx

Just what I was thinking about today! Can you paint metal with chalk paint? Thank you very much! I’ll get to it then.

You are inspirational, I love your projects. Please tell me how you create the graphics (words not images) on the printer. You mention that there is a link in this video but I cannot see it. I have a good quality Ink Jet printer.

Is that crickets in the background? Love it!

“Wicked cute”. 😜

Thanks for getting back to me. Have a question. I understand 2 tablespoon plaster of Paris 2 tablespoon warm water but approximately how much of the tester paint. I am a beginner and would like to get it right if possible. Do love your ideas of repurposing old items

I love the cricket sound 💕💕sooooo much better then that loop music 😖😖

I am going to try this. I went to Home Depot and found the small 8 oz. And had them mix up black and I picked up white. They were $5.48 each.

Can you store this then after you make it or do you need to use it right away and then throw the remainder? I guess I could always experiment.

Can you use this mixture on a wall? Would love to color-customize a framed chalkboard for my children's bedroom!

HI there, I don't see the link that you mention on how you make your graphics. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Great job!!!

❤

Your cricket made me nuts. Thought it was in my room, lol

May I ask what was the surface you were working on? Thanks for the recipe👍

How long does the paint keep - what happens to it, does it harden? And have you tried calcium carbonate as the chalk base?

so i want to mix a bottle apple barrel acrylic craft paint its 8 lf oz 236ml would i use same sizes of plaster of paris and water that you use? or how do i figuer out a ratios?

Could you mix a small bottle of acrylic crafters paint to white chalk paint to get your desired color?

Wow, this is great. Thank you so much for sharing. Only yesterday I ran in to your channel, looking for methods to distress wood. And now I'm watching your videos one after the other. I've just subscribed. Since you are at the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, the brands that you show probably aren't available here. So I have some questions about the ingredients. Is the paint that you used a kind of (acrylic) wall paint? Plaster of Paris is a fancy name of DAP, I suppose. But what is it? Gypsum? Thanks in advance for your replies. That tea/coffee pot looks awesome. Is it aluminium? Locally I saw an ad of aluminium milk cans. That would be a lovely project to do. I wish you a lot of success with your channel. It's very inspiring. You deserve much more subscribers and viewers. (they'll come for sure), Greetings for Slovakia, Europe.

I love that tattoo removal saw. 😂

Love all your videos!! Can you use acrylic paint to tint the chalk paint in the color you want to use?

Hello! I am looking you from Poland.

What is your painting table? I’ve been looking for something I don’t have to keep covering with plastic

If you have white latex paint to make chalk paint, how can you color it?

Can you use a semi-gloss or gloss paint and can you use anything other than plaster of Paris

Hello, on the graphics did you use an Inkjet or Laser Printer? Thanks.

What kind of tester paint have you used? Is it acrylic? I think Chalk paint looks quite good on furniture and wood, does it adheres well on them?

Is plaster you get at the craft store the same as plaster of Paris?

What qty is in the tester? We may have different amounts in South Africa! Thank you. X

I’ve always made my chalk paint with Calcium Carbonate very Fine Powder never plaster Paris!

Could I also add Elmer's glue and get the process of a distressed look done in one step?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! My goodness chalk paint can get expensive!! 😮😅 Just curious but have you ever tried making it withBaby powder / Talc ? If so what’s your opinion, and is the talc cheaper than the plaster of paris? Sometimes that extra dollar or two makes such a big difference it’s worth it, I know lol but I try to save if I possibly can 😊❤

hi i love all your videos, im new to chalk paint you say its 2 tablespoon plaster of Paris 2 tablespoon warm water your test pot is 8oz you used only half the test pot 4oz but approximately how much of the paint should i mix 8oz or 4oz :) i love your orange teapot so cute :)

In the video you said to use half of the tester paint. It was 8oz so you used approximately 4oz. But in comments you said to use the entire jar 8oz. So will I use 4oz 1/2 jar or 8oz entire jar? Thank you so much!!!

Could you measure everything into a jar and shake until blended?

do you have a recipe for salt wash?

So if I use this on a table or a sign that might go out doors, how would I seal it?

Chalk paint is nice, to work with, but I still have to sand everything, first. I don't know why, but I do. I guess, it just makes me feel better.

I have a project that won't use the full quart of paint. So my question is "Can you buy a quart of white and somehow color what you need"? If so how would you color it? Thx

How do me make out on graphics?

So how much (measurement wise) is half the little tester bottle. 1/2 cup?

Can I use any kind of paint?? Látex, acrylic, water paint, oil paint??

Source of great harmonica music, please!

Why do you need plaster if your using paint that already has primer?

What exactly would half of the paint sample be in measurements. In cups or ounces. Thanks

Can you use acrylic paint for the colour?

Can you color chalk paint with acrylic paint or food coloring? I just want small amounts at a time.
