In the old days we called transfer paper "carbon paper."

I guess I'm mushy, cause this gave me chills. What a wonderful way to save your child's hand writing and/or art work! My 5 year old son drew something for me, yesterday and now I will forever have it burnt into my chopping board! Thank you!!

… why don’t you just have your child draw directly onto the board and then seal it … that would actually be an authentic piece of art …

Love this idea! I’d probably hang the cutting board on the wall as a piece of art in my kitchen.🥰

It’s easier to transfer it to the cup if you just lay the paper down and then slide the paper out from under the decal. Hope this helps. Love your projects

Great ideas for grandma too! Fun gift ideas for mother or father's day . Thanks for sharing your talent.

Wonderful way to preserve your children’s art work❗️What a great mom you are‼️❣️🤩

Don't forget to print the image out REVERSED, so that it's positioned correctly when you place it face down to iron it on.

So often we lose these precious memories, amazing way to keep then! Blessed and safe days!

Another fun idea to store for another day...gotta have time to organize myself.

That is just so cool and cute. It's a more permanent way to keep & treasure when our young children express their love when they 1st learn to write and draw.

This is a sweet idea. Love the sentiment of preserving children's handwriting.

What a beautiful way to display those precious memories we don't want ruined! I'm thinking I want to use this idea to make a quilt out of each of my two girls' art work, and gifting it to each of them for next Xmas (I have some time) 🤣. I'm also thinking about transferring some of them onto canvas and framing them to make an art gallery in my hallways. So many ideas you've given me! I'm heading to my precious artwork archives and getting started right away. Thank you for sharing! 🙏❤️

I use these board for little breakfast charcuterie board for my 2 year old daughter’s breakfast and lunch. She LOVES to have a breakfast board each morning and either a board or a bento box for lunch. It makes feeding her easier since she willingly eats and it’s fun. She eats more this way than she does if I put it on a plate.

What a beautiful way to collect your children's art

We used to do something like this back in the 70s...we'd find a picture and a piece of wood. We would scorch the edges of the picture then glue it to the piece of wood then cover it in epoxy. Made pretty wall hangings.

On the dish towel, I would have cut out the drawing, cut along the edges, to get a much cleaner look. Great idea, and appreciate your showing the products used. Maybe list them in the description/info under the video for easy reference? 👍👍👍!

I use water slides on tumblers. It’s doesn’t say this in the video, but be sure to seal the water slide with at least three coats of clear sealant to make image durable. When applying water slide to cup, it should be left of the backing paper, placed on the cup, and then slowly slide the paper backing from behind. Also, the cup should be wet, and air bubbles can be removed with a silicone flat brush used in tumbler making.

Loved the first two crafts! Definitely trying them out! I have a wood burner kit already! So that’s a start! 😂

I LAMINATED MY SONS ART (ALL 11X14) AND GAVE THEM TO HIS GRANDPARENTS AS PLACEMATS

Great idea!! ..but I'd have her write directly on the board and skip the carbon paper all together

These would be great gifts for Grandma, too!! I wish I had a wood burning tool! If I did, I'd want to burn everything, but probably just burn myself!! Another idea might be to shellac the copy, then keep it as a decoration!

I was looking forward to see more than just one diy with the cutting board.. since that's what the title said

Uh, that's a piece of carbon paper. Used to have to put that in a typewriter in order to make copies of the document you were typing. Brought back memories

Happy Monday! Beautiful decors!

Im in my feels. My 3 month olds name is Brielle. So much cuteness

I have never found the cutting boards. I keep looking!!

Wood burning is known as pyrography. Nice to see you showing what can be done with a cheap cutting board bear in mind you might want to use the reverse for cutting as the writing won’t last five minutes cutting on it. I’ve been doing these for 15 years so it’s not a new idea. But credit to you for showing others. ;0)

Great idea! One year, when my babies were itty bitty, I traced their hand print on wooden plaques and used a wood burner and gave them as gifts. It turned out lovely!

Just Modge Podge the ORIGINAL artwork to the board. By you tracing it, it isn't truly your daughter's artwork. That's silly the way you're doing it.

Thank you so much, I really really enjoyed watching you create these amazing and stunning artwork and writing too. Great ideas too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

I wanted say everyone has difference ways of doing things you keep on doing it your way it wonderful mommy doing that for their babies which ever way you choose i for it

Thank you for sharing this cute video, my grandson ❤️ loves to draw he's 7 and loves grandma. You gave me great ideas thanks once again 👍 😊

In wood in crafts in highschool I really enjoyed using that wood burning tool.

These ideas are so classy I love it! I'm so inspired I'm throwing a prom for all the neighborhood cats. The outfits I'm making each of their outfits from pipe cleaners and contact paper. Do you think cats like hits of the 80s.

Very creative, Thank you for sharing have a blessed day stay safe and healthy. 🙏❤🙏❤

If you put your transfer on a plastic sheet protector it will stick, then you lay it on your project and peel off the plastic sheet protector. It works as a transfer sheet.

Thank you for this great video. I have gotten so tired of Hometalk's too fast videos with subpar instructions that I rarely even attempt to watch them any longer. This video was excellent and I appreciate being to watch and learn without having my blood pressure go up.

Great ideas. hit mirror image before printing when there are names. They all came out great

“Don’t cut on the image side, use the back [of the cutting board.]” …Cuts celery on the image side.

The cutting board idea is very cute. God bless you!

But don’t forget to Print your image in “Reverse” before ironing onto your choice of material……….!

Thank you for this demonstration.

Love it!!!! great idea, great job! blessings and keep it up!

It would’ve been real cool if you’d keep the “i” in dad like the original. I imagined she wrote it like she may have pronounced it. Cute 🥰

I like that with the cutting board🥰

Very clever thanks for sharing👏👏👏😃😃😃👍👍👍

Here's a tip: they are called "water slide decals" because you are supposed to bring the decal on the backing to the object, and sliiide it onto your object, not try to pick up the decal film out of the water, you can easily tear them and distort them. If you pick up the backing AND decal out of the water you can position it where you want it and slide the backing out from under it

Thank you. Much appreciated 🌱💛

Cool carbon paper for making copies from years ago!

Great Idea.

Mod Podge would've worked really well here

Amazing ideas 🥰

It's much easier to take the entire hippo paper, put it on your project, then just slide the backing from underneath. This prevents any tearing or wrinkling.

Super cute ways to preserve artwork!! Any ideas on how to get these images printed on transfer paper if you do not own a printer (or know anyone who does)?

I'm glad you can get this from a Dollar store...... Poundland is a joke in the UK this has been done for years you can get people to do this on eBay not too expensive either

Where did she find carbon paper? I haven’t seen it in a decade or more!

I've never even seen a Dollar Tree cutting board?! Has everyone here seen them??

cute ideas. Will make nice gifts

Really nice creations that aren't too hard n u have something special...

🍃🪴🍃Thank you! I love the cutting board! My plan is to get our family to AUTOGRAPH a card for my son but technically, I will add everyones name to a cutting board or plaque like you taught! Thanks for the great idea! God bless you! Lynne🍃💜🍃

Thank you for the wonderful ideas. Blessings 🙏🏻🎉

Use a hot pen or foil to “burn” the words into the wood. You don’t need transfer paper. Draw on top of the paper.

I just need cheap wood supplies so thanks for the pipe line.

An interesting video for these products. I might have titled it ’how to capture an image on a DT cutting board’ it was a little misleading.

These are great ideas!

I absolutely love these ideas. Thank you for sharing🙏🏻🥰

I love all of these ❤️❤️❤️

SMART, I love these ideas 💡 tks for sharing, looking forward to seeing more ideas from you

Couldn’t you just get your daughter to write on the board directly 😁

Thank you for the demonstration.

Love these diys… question.., does the type of printer you use make a difference.. or will any printer work?

I wish my dollar store carried these how lucky you are and fantastic by the way.

gee, we used to call 'transfer' paper carbon paper and we used it in a typewriter to make a duplicate letter lol

Wonderful!!!😊

Brilliant!!

Such great ideas and so easy. Thanks!

Very clever amazing work great ideas 💡 👍 😊

LOVE this idea!!! Thank you Thank you ♥️

Beautiful idea! 💜

I love the mug with the art on it! It would be neat to get a bunch of matching plain mugs and do an entire set with your child’s art. Of course then it would be much more upsetting if one broke! Maybe a good idea would be to make doubles of each just in case. Lol. I’ve also seen people frame their child’s art really nicely with beautiful frames and patterned matting behind the art, Then make a gallery wall with that and favourite photos and anything that’s a personal memory, like some field flowers your child picked for you while on a nature walk, flatten and dry them in a book then get two matching frames and secure the flat, dry flowers between the two pieces of glass in one frame. It’s a beautiful look! And a great way to save something special. Or if your child has a favourite cartoon character or story or game, print off a neat screen shot of it you can find online and frame that. Actually my daughter would have an extremely hard time letting go of old toys, every single craft she’d make, clothes she’d grow out of, old bicycles, plastic toddler dishes, every single stuffed animal (she still has the MOST special ones, I’m not heartless, but they sure add up and take up so much space as most parents know.) literally hundreds of rocks she’d collect from walks along the lake (actually those could be used for a rock garden or in potted plants), she’d get personally attached to these things. So because I didn’t want to end up on an episode of hoarders, or make her feel like I didn’t care, or have her cry about it for the entire day or longer (i’m not even exaggerating)......So I had the idea that we could donate the items for another little kid to enjoy but keep the memory of the object by taking a photo, which totally worked to help her let go! (and tbh she’d usually forget all about it after she took the photos anyway). I think she was mainly bothered by the feeling of things she cared about not being appreciated, so just the acknowledgment of her feelings, that the items were worthwhile and the memories important to her (to give it to another child and then the token photo farewell), was what helped her emotionally cope with letting go. But it would have been neat to also make a collage or something of those photos or send them out and have them made into one of those books of photo memories! Something small she could keep forever if she wanted, to look through and remember the things she enjoyed as a child. I wish I still had all of those photos, it would have been a great gift, to give to her, now as an adult, one of those photo “coffee table” books, as well as add in some favourite photos of childhood trips to the cottage, or the nature walks etc. I know she’d absolutely cherish it! And now with a grown up perspective, she’d also appreciate that it wouldn’t take up nearly as much space as if she’d literally kept everything! I really hope someone with a young child reads this and can help their child who has trouble letting things go and then will one day surprise them with a beautiful photo book of all of their child’s favourite memories of special childhood toys, crafts, adventures, friends (that’s another huge one I forgot to mention! Its so hard on kids when a friend moves away...), and of course pets are a huge one as well! Just imagine how cool that would be for them to eventually share those memories with their children and then do the same for their children, and have generations of beautiful coffee table photo books full of special memories for the family to share together.

I really loved these ideas.

Have never seen wooden cutting boards at my DT.

Very informative. I love your ideas! I need a cheap idea on how to transfer a copier image to a piece of silver sheet metal, so I can cut it out.

Very creative...I love it!!

If you trace over your kids writing it isnt the same, kids have that shaky scribble from untrained hands. I don't think I would want a gift of my child's traced writing 🤷‍♀️

Great ideas. Thank you for sharing.

This is a nice idea but with things like writing or special kids drawing you want to preserve I feel like the original would get distorted between all the steps.

I'm in if wood is involved 😊

What a sweet way to save your childrens art and handwritings!

Great idea ! So cute ! also for bday s or Xmas gift , perfect 👍🏼 Tks on tips . 😃💕

Beautiful

I really love this. Thank you!

When doing the t towel, make sure you invert the printing.

This would be great for a few things my Mom had copied quotes/poems while sitting in her oncologist office getting chemo the last 6 months of her life~we didn’t know she’d get covid n pass 6months after diagnosis a year ago…going through her things I found a sweet box that she’s wrote these sort of things in there n it’s her handwriting so of course I am treasuring them❤️ I will try this with a couple of them n maybe if they work well would make Beautiful gifts for my 5 siblings n her grandchildren!

Such a fun sweet idea😘🤩😍

Good job 👍 ❤️

This is wonderful!

Such cute ideas 💡
