Crusty, Old and Chunky painting technique using Annie Sloan paint.
I found you on fb 🎉
Did you try to paint on completely clear plastic baubles? I keep trying but no good results. I need white background for decoupage with napkins, any advice is more than welcome. Btw thank you for your video, your baubles are beautiful 😊
@@agiagata945 I don’t usually use plastic for these, but if I did I would definitely prime them with a white gesso first. I have also used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint very successfully. I find matte paint works much better. Thanks for your comment and keep creating!!! Janet xx
Would using like the chunky salt give the same/better results?? I can't remember the name of the salt lol I'm drawing a blank but I love layering with the chunky salt and scraping
I'm not talking about saltwash but I do love that too lol kosher coarse that's what I'm talking about
Kia Ora & Good Evening from North Shore, Auckland, New Zealand ...great video bro.
i enjoyed watching you paint...i too will be painting your roses...i would like to see more of your piantings
@@christinejeppsson180 Hey Christine…you can find lots of my artwork on my artist FB page…click on PHOTOS. m.facebook.com/studiojanetm Thanks for commenting
I Love it ❤️😍
Thank you..Happy New Year!
Thank you so much. I want to start painting,You are a very good teacher.
You are so very welcome and I hope you do fill your days with painting!
Great video! Thanks for the info and idea ♥️
Your welcome and thank you for visiting my channel!
I need your advice. I painted a small wooden box with chalk paint and then I used a 2 Part Fine Line Crackle Va🎉rnish on the outside of the box and on top of the lid but on the inside, which I also painted with chalk paint, I applied clear wax to the paint, which I haven't buffed yet. I applied the wax yesterday, but I'm not sure how to buff it. Should I buy one of those oval brushes - like the one you used in this video - and use that to buff the wax? I know my question isn't about waxing furniture but, if you could give me any advice at all, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you so much. From Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia
Hey there Amanda! To buff your wax all you need is a lint free cloth or a paper towel that is more like a shop towel. With a light touch, just start gently wiping your waxed surface. Light pressure, your arm should not hurt when you buff. If it does, you are working too hard😉 Let the rag/towel do the work. You may feel the wax tugging and resisting at first, but as you buff you should notice the cloth begin to slide more along the surface. If you never feel that nice glide and it seems tacky after buffing, that usually mean you have too much wax on the surface. If that happens, no worries, it’s an easy fix. Contrary to what would make sense, to reduce the wax on your surface simply apply a little more wax. I know it sounds crazy, but what happens is the fresh wax reactivates the older wax and it softens it. Now with the softened wax you can easily wipe away the excess. I know I just gave you a lot of information, I hope I didn’t complicate things or confuse you. If so let me know and I’ll try to break it down or answer any other questions. Happy buffing and thanks for visiting my channel💗 Janet xx
I just bought these IOD Pot Transfers and I love them, but I didn't quite know what to do with them so thank you for making a video about them. From Amanda in Australia
You’re welcome 💗💗
This is beautiful and so cheap technique! Much better than popular "saltwash". Thank you for video! 🥰
So glad you found it useful. Be well….Janet x
Beautiful 💜
thank you!
Love your videos
thank you so much!
I appreciate your teaching approach. I already have spray fixative for my pastel painting, so I sprayed my painted ornament with that. Do you think that will prevent the paint from chipping off over time?
Hello Suzanne! First I want to say thank you for watching my video. I think the fixative should work fine. It's non yellowing and should protect the painted design properly. Happy Holidays!! Warmly, Janet x
Wow ,my favorite style,thank you
You’re welcome 💗💗
This is fantastic! I have a container of plastic clear ornaments I’m going to play with these flowers!
That's wonderful Diane, have fun!! Janet xx
That is brilliant!
Thank you! Thank you for visiting my channel, now go paint something fabulous 😉…Janet
I cannot draw or paint, but going to try this! Love your videos!😊
Thank you so much 😀
I’m so happy I found your channel.
I'm happy that you are happy!!!!
WARNING: I ruined my chalk paint project and you could too. I painted my furniture with Annie Sloan old white and it looked amazing! Then I added the Annie Sloan old wax clear as instructed by all the videos and I have wet looking blotchy streaks everywhere! Now I feel bitter because I wasted my energy and time with a ruined project. It has to be stated that these UA-camrs teaching you these techniques and even Annie Sloan herself are professionals. Compare your Do it yourself table to theirs and you will be blown away. Applying wax is a skill and it’s not for everyone. I hate to bring so much negativity to such a positive community but this really isn’t for everyone. Test yourself. Buy a boring block of wood from Home Depot and apply 2 coats of Chalk paint and Top coat clear wax and if your results doesn’t come out good then this is not for you nor is any painting project that requires a top coat. Your better off painting a wall.
🤩
Thanx for this video!
you are welcome!!
This is awesome info about Annie Sloan’s decoupage medium! I’ve used her paints for various furniture projects but haven’t tried the decoupage and wasn’t sure what to expect. Thank you for posting this video! 🎨🌟❤️
You are so welcome!
OMGosh... I have TONS of saw dust... and won't have to waste my Kosher salt! ;)
🤣🤣 don’t waste that kosher salt, it’s expensive and lately very hard to find in the supermarkets🤣
So pretty
thank you
Wow I love your work. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Hello from Australia 🇦🇺
Thank you for your lovely words 💗
I’m new to Annie Sloan so thank you for a great video. I can’t wait to try it and watch your other tutorials.
Thank you!!
Brilliantly done x
thank you Karen!
Hola. Ya sé pasaron 5 años y recien veo pero la gran noticia es que lo hice y salió perfecta la tranferencia con otra marca de chalk porque aqui en mi país no venden annie. Besos
Hola Fran ... Estoy muy feliz de que hayas podido obtener hermosos resultados en tu proyecto de pintura. Estoy seguro de que es hermoso. Que te vaya bien ... Janet xx
nice , but i wonder how long it will stay nice and good ?
Hello Carine and thank you so much for visiting my UA-cam channel. You’ll be happy to know that this painted and decoupage chair still looks fantastic. Decoupage, if done properly, will last for many many years. There are actually examples of decoupage furniture and decor items in museums that still look good to this day. Thanks again and be well.. Janet xx
i ove it love the colors so thank you
Thank You for visiting my channel!......Janet xx
This is awesome. I transcended into a French chateau on the final step. So cool with the rustic vibes.
Thank you Lavonna and yes, definite rustic vibes😉 Be well...Janet x
I love your tutorials. And your style is so easy to learn. And your paintings are my favorites.

Rose Herrera Thank you Rose, stay healthy and have a lovely day!
I just found you. Why did it take so long? I really want to learn how to do this. Thank you for all your demonstrations. I need to get setup and I am going to practice the lines, thick and thin and then petals and leaves this week after work. Thank you so much. I really appreciate you.
Cocominga Handmade Cards So happy you found me! I know you’ll have fun, watercolor always puts me in such a good mood. Be easy on yourself, and you will get better the more you practice. Enjoy the process and don’t worry so much about the final outcome. Have fun! Janet xx
I love your teaching technique. 🌹
Dear Kierstyn, That is very kind of you to say. Thank you so much. Be well and thank you for visiting my channel. Warmly, Janet xx
Great presentation. Thankyou
Kierstyn Hinkle thank you so much! Be well and have fun painting. Hugs...Janet x
Hi Janet, I love your video. I'd like to use some of the products I already have on hand. So can you please tell me if Liquitex Pouring Medium is an extender? Also, for the finish, I have Minwax Water Based Polycrylic Protective Finish, DecoArt Triple Thick Brilliant Brush-on Gloss Glaze and Judikins Diamond Glaze. Is one of these a good alternative to seal the paint images as the final step? Thank you
Hey Roseanne.......Thanks so much for watching my video. I researched your poring medium and I am not sure if they are interchangeable. The pouring med. looks like it makes your paint more fluid as opposed to an extender, which just gives you a longer open time with your paint. It dries slower. You can always try just a touch of it. The extender is not absolutely needed, try it without. The Minwax polyacrylic finish should be fine as a final sealer. Be sure to let your paint dry completely. Have fun! Janet xx
@@StudioJanet Thanks Janet for the quick response!
Thanks for this tutorial. This is dani. From laredo tx ...What kind of wax are you using. Please
daniel uvalle hey Dani! I used Annie Sloan clear and (dark) brown wax. Thank you for watching. Janet xx
What kind of brushes and paints do you use?
Kelly Acker For this project are used artist grade acrylics like Amsterdam or Liquitex . Having said that if craft paint is all you have, that will work also. They are just not as highly pigmented as artists grade. As for brushes, I use lots of different brands. Some of my favorite that I’ve had for many years were purchased online at Artist Club, their Papillon brand. Round brushes are my favorites. Thanks so much for watching..Janet x
Am looking for a chippy lol for a headboard that we made from Two old 6 panel doors from an old 1910 farmhouse we had to demo. This looks perfect! I’ll watch several times before trying. I’m definitely subscribing to your channel! Thanks. Oh and my daughter and her husband just moved to Warrenton VA! Beautiful area.
Linda Kriegel Really, Warrenton is a beautiful little town with lots of Civil War history!
Did you paint directly on the spray paint or did you prime it this another product first?
Dustin Keller hello Dustin, no I never prime when I paint furniture. It’s not necessary if you use Annie Sloan paint. I know there are lots of chalk style paints out there now, even more so than when I filmed this video, but hers offers excellent coverage and adhesion over all kinds of surfaces. Thanks so much for your comment and for watching . Have a great day..Janet x
@@StudioJanet Thank you!
I’m new to your channel Thank you for sharing this with me Love your work. I enjoy watching your videos thanks again
