Although it is a year ago, I just found this video. I love the technique and you make it “simple” to follow. All IOD is my favorite. Nothing I have tried is anywhere near as good. Thank you girls!
instead of patting, add a technique I invented. Take your cloth and make it wrinkly. Then roll it into a hotdog shape. Then take the cloth roll and roll over the flat surface. It makes another dimension of distressing with the combination of patting. I use this method to do my distressing. Alone with some flicking.
@@Embracetherandom Flicking is with a toothbrush. Water down an accent color use have already used in your project with water. Dump you toothbrush in the mixture. Hold in your hand and take a finger and rub over the toothbrush bristles.
@@sisita41 This video was initially a Live we did, which is why we had the split screen and the moving camera. This won't be our permanent new format ❤️
This is really beautiful. I saw a similar technique and they sprayed the silver paint with diluted vinegar. It adds to the distressing when the black paint shows through it.
I already made vintage mirrors some years ago with another technique. But now I will do it again because I just love the idea using your wonderful stamps for that! As I did it I used stencils and decoupage paper. As the mirror medium I used Mirror Mist from Pentart. Unfortunately it is very expensive and you get just 9ml in a bottle. So you need 2-3 bottles or more for a huge mirror. It's alcohol based and I distressed it with vinegar which worked very well. But because its price I only made two mirrors and never did it again 😅 I don't know Krylon but I think it's solvent based? Unfortunately, I don't find it on Amazon here in Germany so I will use Pentart Mirror Mist again 'cause I love your stamps and btw all your other products! Thank god I found an Online Shop who sells your amazing products here ❤ and you found a new fan 😉 Thank you for the inspiration I will try this myself!
I love that, so pretty! You go girls! Keep coming with your great ideas. Hubby & I just accomplished your brick wall with your IOD brick roller. It was a learning process, but it turned out amazing. We love it & the best part it was affordable to do. I can't wait to do another & this idea as well. The possibilities are endless with your amazing products. I'm a fan of all of them. They are so fun!
YES!! Love to hear that! I'm so glad you had a good experience and success with your brick roller! Once you get the hang of it, it can be really fun! We'd love to see your work! Tag us on instagram if you post pictures! ❤️❤️❤️

Omg my head is spinning with so many things to do I have a BOX full of picture frames and can now posh those up with this technique!Thank you IOD Sisters 💕
You can spritz the mirror or just drop some water on the glass before you spray the looking glass paint and it will look like water spots desilvered the mirror. Love this idea using the stamps too. Can't wait to try this.
Wow that's great. Love it. I am working with IOD stamps Got Farm animals and crockery stamps it's amazing how they look. It makes so much fun making DIYs. Think I got to get some moulds. I live in Germany. So thanks a lot for sharing. Bye from Yasmin 💓. Hugs.
Thanks so much for sharing, Yasmin!! So glad you've joined our IOD community and you're having fun making DIYs!!! ❤️ Love to you in Germany from us here at IOD
So you stamped the back of the glass, then sprayed the back of the glass with looking glass a few coats, next was distressing and next sprayed a few coast also on the back of the glass with Matt black spray paint over looking glass? So the front you can clean the with dusting and or windex since all the decor was added to the back of the glass?
Stunning! I am so excited to try it... one question. do you spray the krylon and the finish black paint over the IOD stamp/ink , all the steps are on the back side?
I love this idea so much! I have four pieces of glass that I am going to use for this idea. They are large pieces and were the shelves out of my entertainment center I gave away. They never came back for the glass (its been 8 yrs) and now I know what to do with them. YEAH!!! I will make the wide frames and use my lovely IOD moulds on the frames. These are going to be beautiful when done. I can't wait. Love ya both and so thankful for all your wonderful ideas. They can't be found anywhere else!!!! Oh by the way, Is there a new baby coming to IOD Heaven by any chance???? : ) : )
So glad we inspired you and thank you for your sweet comments! Gallery walls are a favorite of ours. Make sure you share what you make with us on social media so we can see!
Ok I ❤this project and you have probably said it but what kind of ink are you using is it solvent because I work on glass all the time and I think that’s the only one that works I didn’t hear because I was washing dishes 😂. Thanks
Watching again before I try I realized I'm not sure if it's dry or wet (the Krylon spray) when you go into de-stressing the mirror with the shop cloth? I'm assuming it's dry because it appears to dry so quickly but I'm just not sure if that's correct. I just can't get over how gorgeous this turned out🤗
Did you spray the looking glass on the stamped side? You did, right? Not on the unstamped side. Then the black is on the unstamped side?? I’m so confused!!
@@IronOrchidDesigns Used custom designed vinyl of my dog. Put the vinyl on the glass, sprinkled some water droplets and sprayed with the mirror spray, let dry, removed vinyl and then sprayed black and turned out awesome.
You could probably scrape it off with a razor blade, but we can't say for sure. Maybe try it on some picture frame glass and see how well it comes up. 💕
Yes, you can definitely use a color. We'd still suggest using IOD inks (the come in a variety of colors) because of their pigmentation and permanency. Happy making!
That may be the problem. Try conditioning again and see if you get better results - or try re-inking your pad and store it lid side down so that the ink stays on the surface. You could also reach out to your stockists and show them what's going on - I'm sure they'd be happy to help you get the results you're looking for. :)
Just until you get the look you want. If you want it to be super distressed, you'd pat for longer but if you like it to look less vintage/more new, then only pat minimally or not at all.
For this project we didn't seal it! We used the looking mirror spray. The sealer you use will depend on your personal preference and whether your project will be indoors or outdoors😊
Love your projects, BUT your split screen is so annoying. The audience doesn't need to see you, we need to see what you are doing. You explain things very well.
I love you girls and your products and of course these projects BUUUUT the split screen is really distracting. The half screen and fiddling with the camera takes away from the tutorial. Just some healthy constructive criticism 😊❤️
Thanks, Olivia! We're definitely taking note of viewers' feedback. This footage is from a Live event we did awhile back - definitely not our permanent new format. ❤️
@@IronOrchidDesigns Ladies, I'd love that but would need to find the right frame...how much fun you must have...I'm stuck working right now but am in the process of getting things packed to put in storage so I have the room I need in order to focus on doing what you are doing..love it and am "drooling" to get started....since I don't have a mirror at least right now to do this to, let me tell you what I "see"... I see black with gold / silver scrolling entwined on the mirror and I love carved frames so see the scrolling cascade onto that frame ....you're both artists, so I think you can "see" what I am envisioning. YES? Where are you located? I'm in Houston. I've been painting furniture for years but nothing fancy like you do, just painted things to match the walls because I don't love dark furniture....I can hardly wait to get chalk paint in lots of colors, appliques and ....do it....I used to make wedding cakes so I have lots of molds just waiting to be used again!!!

Getting motion sickness from the camera work ladies 😂....love that stamp I’ve just brought it! ❤️
I agree. This new format, and the constant moving of the camera, is very distracting.

Yes, the black paint showing through definitely gives it that little bit extra of authenticity! Thanks for watching.
Glass cuts, prevention, take a sanding block and sand the glass edges. No more cuts😊

Eliminate the glasses if you can. They bounce light and difficult to watch.

Do I see another baby on the way? Excited.
Congratulations you were the only one brave enough to ask 😂 yes ma’am I am preggies with #6!

Won't it smear since mirror is slick? What if you want to clean mirror wouldn't it come off?

To the US or from the US. It isn't that bad from my stockist in Utah, jamirayvintage.com, to where I'm located in Indiana.

Did you spray the black on the reverse side of the project?
Yes!
Beautiful! I need to do this.
We would love to see what you come up with! ❤️
Brilliant work girls...love it
Thanks so much, Mandy! ❤️
Ok I ❤this project and you have probably said it but what kind of ink are you using is it solvent because I work on glass all the time and I think that’s the only one that works I didn’t hear because I was washing dishes 😂. Thanks
It is our IOD decor ink which is a solvent based 🙌🤗🤗
Absolutely stunning!!!!
Thank you, Britzel!
Is there a way to fix an error in stamping? Can the fresh ink be removed if i make a mistake?
I think someone is EXPECTING!!
You would be correct ❤️
Gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Tammy! ❤️
I’m inspired! 🙋♀️🌴🌺
We love to hear that!!!
After distressing the Looking glass spray could I paint the back gold? Instead of black? How might that look?
Yes Jen! You can definitely try that out! I'm not too sure how it would look, but it sounds lovely 🥰😍❤
Watching again before I try I realized I'm not sure if it's dry or wet (the Krylon spray) when you go into de-stressing the mirror with the shop cloth? I'm assuming it's dry because it appears to dry so quickly but I'm just not sure if that's correct. I just can't get over how gorgeous this turned out🤗
We used a barely damp rag on dry paint💕
Thank you 😊 Yes, I'm watching again to do another one 😂 I should have this memorized.
Love this.
Beautiful
HOW ABOUT THAT WALL BEHIND YOU 😍TUTORIAL PLEASE!!! THE MIRROR IS LOVELY !!!

I love this 💜
Thanks so much! ❤️
The only time I'm sad I had all brothers and no sisters 🤣
Yes!! Brothers should create more often!!!💗
Did you spray the looking glass on the stamped side? You did, right? Not on the unstamped side. Then the black is on the unstamped side?? I’m so confused!!
Yes! Haha sorry for the confusion😂 Stamp, Looking glass goes over the stamps, then spray paint the back side black ♥️
Done this technique years ago.
How did it turn out for you? 😊
@@IronOrchidDesigns Used custom designed vinyl of my dog. Put the vinyl on the glass, sprinkled some water droplets and sprayed with the mirror spray, let dry, removed vinyl and then sprayed black and turned out awesome.
Can any of these be layered to give some depth? rather than all side by side.
Absolutely ❤️
Stunning!!! How much would you sell this for?
It would vary so much by location that we can't begin to guess.
It would be nice to see the whole project instead of the split screen…
Thanks for the feedback. This footage is from a previous event. Not our new permanent format moving forward ❤️
Wow!
Thanks so much!
Hello, new to IOD. I enjoy your tutorials.
Can one use Rust-Oleum mirror effect instead of looking glass spray on archival ink? Thank you
Hi Maryka! You most certainly can use that instead🤗❤
@@IronOrchidDesigns thank you for taking the time to answer me 🙏
@@maryka7771 Of course! Thank you for stopping by and watching🥰🤗❤
So confusing. Did you put the mirror finish on top of the stamps or on the opposite side?
On top of the stamps😁
QUESTION: If I use this technique on my (rental apartment) sliding glass door, can it be removed from the glass at a later time?
You could probably scrape it off with a razor blade, but we can't say for sure. Maybe try it on some picture frame glass and see how well it comes up. 💕
Love it! Can you you use a color for the stamps instead of black? Thank you 😊
Yes, you can definitely use a color. We'd still suggest using IOD inks (the come in a variety of colors) because of their pigmentation and permanency. Happy making!
Love it.
Thanks! :)
are you tapping with dry cloth?
It is a slightly damp cloth. :) Completely dry might be too rough and distress the mirror a bit more than you'd like.
I'm never able to get that much ink on my stamps.......did I not condition enough?????
That may be the problem. Try conditioning again and see if you get better results - or try re-inking your pad and store it lid side down so that the ink stays on the surface. You could also reach out to your stockists and show them what's going on - I'm sure they'd be happy to help you get the results you're looking for. :)
How long approx, do you pat the glass?
Just until you get the look you want. If you want it to be super distressed, you'd pat for longer but if you like it to look less vintage/more new, then only pat minimally or not at all.
How do you seal it?
For this project we didn't seal it! We used the looking mirror spray. The sealer you use will depend on your personal preference and whether your project will be indoors or outdoors😊
SNL has nothings on this deal.... oh my gosh i get it
😆😆😆
I miss the Sister’s showing how they would use their products!
