Did you quit? I just found you

Can you tell me how well painted fabric on something like a kitchen chair would wear? Some of the tutorials I see seem to be for accent chairs and not highly used chairs.

Awwww, the kitty! 🐈‍⬛

Thanks so much! My daughter and I are going to do all her furniture this way!

I do not do this type of crafting but I want to learn. I like the results of both projects! I probably would wax the transfer on the Asian look gold picture. It looks like a pricey piece of art!

I love the the result and butter flies ❤

Ok this js THE BEST tutorial for chalk paint!!! I am refinishing an old kitchen sideboard into a bathroom vainty using black Annie Sloan chalk paint and I have watched countless videos and tried a lot of techniques but I am not satisfied with the results I am getting. I am definately trying the roller technique, which no one else talks about in their videos. Thanks a million ❤🎉

Awesome Job! ... Beautiful! i wonder if there's a way the mild imperfections could've been masked (prior to painting..) ??🤔 .. perhaps not on a highly textured item.. But with this one being small squares.. could drawing the pattern in with a puffy product.. 🤔.. or perhaps even hot glue..??... if lightly drawing in the pattern under the paint to create a faux pattern...🤷‍♀️ Could something like this have helped??.... just me over thinking.. 😁.. Lol!!... Regardless, your piece is absolutely Lovely! i would definitely buy it at a sale!! 💗.. *Just sharing for ur Thoughts, Please!! ... Im Not sure if this would work with chalk paint... But I'm getting ready to do some large high-back Victorian chairs so been watching creators for ideas, in hopes of a nice outcome! i saw something interesting in one video... the creator used regular ( latex paint ) & mixed it in Equal parts with Fabric softener..😳.. it made the latex paint thicker.. she then did the same as you, & dampened the fabric as she went along with a spray bottle of water.. of course as viewers, we cant feel the finished product.. :/ but she claimed the fabric softener mix created a finished product that was soft( as the orig fabric)... 🤷‍♀️ she did use a wax, she said was just to mildly darken the corners (to create a slightly worn effect..).. Your thoughts PLZZZ! Need all the help i can get..& sure don't want mistakes i cant undo 🤗 TYSM for sharing ur wisdom & all your crafty gifts!💗 @DIYDEANNA 💗

Informative, concise, and well-done. Thank you!

Think the lamp is fantastic..👍🇬🇧

Beautiful until the wallpaper drawers. It clashed big-time. Could've been even more beautiful without it...

Oh my, I thought it was best to decoupage before waxing!

I have a straight brush but always it makes lines… is it the brush or me doing something wrong?

Really great. Extra steps and blends are totally great idea. Awesome

This is a very good video with great explanations on each step in detail. Great info. Thank you.

Love it

Good video!

Can you please guide us step by step through loading it in Adobe Illustrator, editing it, and downloading it so it's ready to send to a print provider? It's really cool art work. How can I find you on Instagram?

Very nice!

This is a really helpful video as I’m contemplating a dye project… would it be possible to dye a darker colour? I have a cobalt blue garden seat pad that I would like to make green - my plan is to dye it yellow, it should work and produce a dark green I’m thinking? Thanks 😊

All I can say is WOWSERS I am truly impressed with both of these projects!!!!!!!!!! I have never worked with transfers but you have definitely changed my mind. I have already checked my " frame " situation and might have to go to village to see what they have that has a good frame and sturdy back. I am late coming to your site but better late then never. I was looking for ideas to spruce up some old lamps I have. So thank you very much for the ideas and for providing an excellent video for me to learn from. Well done!!!!!!!!! I have subscribed for more ideas and will

This is a great video and your dogs are super cute!

Nice ! Lovely!

Beautiful!

Does the wax add any kind of sheen to the paintwork? I'm painting a piece of furniture for a friend who wants a matt finish (no sheen whatsoever), will the wax keep the matt finish???

I had major problems using chalk paint. Had a unit with drawers and cupboards that only had about a mm clearence when closing. After 2 coats of chalk paint neither the cupboards or drawers would close. Can't say I'm a fan of chalk paint, would rather see the natural beauty of the wood.

Did you water down the paint??

We're going to try the roller. Leave them wood.

Do you prefer this method over the shellac?

YES absolutely want to learn how to paint details and your chinoiserie pictures like yours. Thank you. I am a new subscriber. You definitely got me interested

I just chalk painted my first piece of furniture, a large dresser. I used a micro roller because I had veneer damage to repair prior, I had to prime first. The primer showed those lines and brush marks you mentioned. So I lightly sanded and then roller the 2nd coat of primer. That's why I was afraid of brushing the paint. I did do thin coats but I can see those lines again in just a few places. So I'm going to apply a 3rd coat of paint using the same brush you used. I didn't use with primer because I was afraid of ruining the brush especially if the primer dried on it. Now my dresser is all color. I was going to add a decoupage but it was far too large and didn't want to cut all that off and waste it. ** So what would look nice over a dark blue grayish teal color? This is antique dresser older than me, 59 but doesn't have any appliques. I want to some flare and male it look unique. Any suggestions other than knobs and pulls? I don't want distress or make it look old again. Add some silver guilding creme to the edged? OR can add a lighter color to the middle section of drawers so if I find a new decoupage I could incorporate it? Or just it over the blue paint and try to blend a little bit of.the edges to draw interest to the picture? I'm lost at this point. I had originally left the drawers just primed but chose to paint since I didn't have anything to dress it up. I do have some Behr clear wax. Jus5 add that and leave as is? I have 2 other dresser and a 4 poster bed to paint as well. Btw,as you can tell I love challenge in anything I do on first try of whatever I'm learning. Lol I'm using Modern Masters warm silver on the bed, added appliques to it since it already had a little. If all this isn't enough? I'm venetian plastering my livingroom and adding plaster raised stenciling too. I've learned to mill grains and make my breads from scratch, have been growing near all my food for a decade. I've learned to add wood decorative trims to my kitchen cabinets after stripping and staining 32 cabinets over the winter. After the venetian plaster I'm putting thin brick around 4 archways throughout my house. And I'm making a valance and curtains for a 144" window which I've never sewn anything before. Yea I'm crazy. I'm loving retirement and learning so much I never had the time to learn. So far really enjoying all of this . I wonder if anyone else is doing any of these things? Please share if you are. Fun 😁

Do you ever use primer and which brand do you recommend?

Is wax absolutely necessary?

Very simple and easy to follow. How can I make this waterproof for using it outdoor?

Although the paper you used is not my style, I appreciate what a great job you did. I could never have put paper on in that contorted way you had to stand so we could see what you were doing! ☺️☺️☺️ 👏👏👏👏 🥰🥰

This is only the second of your vids I’ve watched and I’m so impressed with you! No annoying music in the background, no entertaining us with irrelevant yapping, just getting down to business doing what we are here to see. You have a pleasant voice and a friendly look about you. Of course I’ve subscribed! ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

A beautiful job! 👏👏👏👏 Amazing how the paint you mixed matched the wood tone and love how you took the time to actually paint wood lines onto the flowers before whitewashing. Just gorgeous.

Well edited And instructed

Thank you

Repairing and painting a piece of furniture and the ruining it by sanding off paint is the silliest thing I can think of. Distressed = old and worn.

Beautiful! Good job!

I see your really cute workers came to help.😂😂😂😂😂❤❤

Great video, thank you! Do you also wash the `wax clothes` after using them?

I don't know if she's using a different chalk paint than what I used but when I tried it and without sanding off the finish entirely I could scratch the paint off with a fingernail.

This has been the best video!

Beautiful

Thanks for this straightforward and informative video! I feel encouraged to go ahead with my project. One question: I will be repainting the top of my dining room table. It was a “farmhouse” white painted table, and when we put a plant in the middle, some water leaked underneath and the paint has come off in a few places and you can see bare wood. I expect that I’ll need to sand those areas and then prime? Should I prime the whole top? Thank!

OMG what the hell man!! Well you made that look quite simple!! I'm struggling with a little project right now. My brother's wife has old toy box that was done with wood stain just like this(they did a very sloppy job whoever did it lol) but for whatever reason this thing is being a nightmare to sand!! This stain is just really holding on and doesn't wanna come off easily, not to mention they did the stain over a white paint too lol. But yeah it's being a bitch....was browsing YT looking for some sanding tips. I enjoyed watching your video but this was useless for me honestly haha you made that look so simple(as it should be) but my stain is on steroids or some shit. Wish me luck...I'm about to get started on it again.

Great video tutorial Deanne. I have just subscribed to your channel as I love way you explain in depth and the way you teach. Can’t wait to go through all your videos. Thanks so much ❤

New to your channel, both projects looked amazing. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see more!!
