They turned out really nice. I like your idea to upcycle old decoration, just about anything if you think about it. You’ve sparked some ideas for me. Thank you.
Lovely ornaments...good to know that I am not the only one that sees even more ideas from the paint drippings....You gave me some great ideas for the leftover paint as well. Thanx much!!!! 🎄💖
@@McEArt I do Activities with Senior Citizens. I am always looking for fun ideas that aren't too immature. I Love Your Work....just sooo Beautiful. And You did mention that your kids do arts and crafts with you as well. As for the Seniors, we have tried Pour Painting Twice so far......and they are Truly Loving It!!!!! Thanks again for all of your fantastic ideas!!!!💖
I loved every minute of this video thank you so much for sharing your talent it was so enjoyable everything came out beautiful you are quite a wonderful teacher
This method smacks of sheer genius! You've sent my mind/senses on a whirlwind tour of possibilities ... while creating some of the most breathtaking ornaments I've seen to date. Holiday blessings to you and your family; and, best wishes for the upcoming year.
These are gorgeous!! I watched a different pouring with blowing & I was disappointed in the results. Is the underneath covered also? Thank you for this great video & your talent!😊
Awesome the way you used all your paint and drippings. A stencil of a tree or ornament shape would make a really cool Christmas card from the drippings.
These are so gorgeous! It's been fun to watch several videos of people doing these with different techniques. Yours are by far my favorite, but then again, I've done a lot of pour painting so yours are more attractive to me because you are also a pour painter and know what you're doing! You actually used the simplest approach in pouring on the actual ornaments. Other people moved theirs around too much and got more muddy results, plus they didn't use as nice of paints as yours. Yours are simply gorgeous! And, bonus, I have all the supplies I'd need. Oh, ALSO! I Love your idea of how to do cabochons. I've never seen anyone else use that technique! And that you used the leftover paint that had dripped. Very resourceful! :)
Oh wow ... so very pretty. Thanks for a wonderful video. Wonder if you used a smaller diameter stick if it might have been easier to poor from the top. Sort of seemed like the larger diameter was hard to poor around.
Just gorgeous!! I use the glass ornaments and put them in the inside with the paint. That is a good way to do it if I have old Christmas 🎄 bulbs that need to be updated!!! I make those pendants that is a great 👍 idea so nothing gets wasted use for the pendents and use to make cards really a great 👍 idea 💡 because everything is being used. I may try making that way and look 👀 for some old bulbs that I can redo. Great way to save money using the Christmas bulbs I already have !!! I may try it out a different way. I may make pendents as well. The cool thing about them is no two are alike
I love it! I’ve tried some for my pink tree in 2020. Yours are way better! You don’t waste much paint but I’m curious how you dispose of any leftovers or paint water. I’m trying to do better for the environment.
Personally I use lots of water and wash it down the sink. Not that great I know. A suggestion I heard was to have a bucket of water and wash in that then pour it out onto the ground to let it dissipate like that. For leftovers if you let them dry and put them in the bin is best so scrape out as much as possible before washing and let it dry.
I painted baubles from the inside back in the ‘90’s....they looked so similar...but adding the silicone makes it sooooo much more fun! I hope this kind of painting is still a thing next year, so I can paint some for next season....
So Beautiful 💞 I love it 💞 I love ur choice of colors, I might try these, they may not turn out as beautiful as yours but I'm gonna try🤔 great video you explained it very well ❣️, love and God bless always🎄💞🎄
I think Ill try this but a bit differently. I have a few ideas that I think will be quite interesting. Maybe Ill have to start my own channel. You certainly got my creative juices flowing!! Thanks!
Omg the first card pour looked like a human hreart & the 2nd card pour looked like 2 angels giving each other a high five. I could not stop laughing when I saw that. Any one else see it?
So cool! Like how one project turns into many. Now do the balls need to be sprayed for protection? And is there a video of how you use the drips for. Cards? Thank you for sharing your talent! Very inspiring.
Hi Leanne, I won't be spraying these as they are for personal use but if I was selling them I would :) Great idea re a video for how to make the cards. I will get on to that once I get some new blank cards :)
I will be doing this for Christmas this year, so beautiful. I'm glad this video was in my recommended for you section. I am subscribed to you, but I'm new to pouring so I'm catching up on everyone's videos.
Those came out so pretty! 😍🙏🏼 They looked sort of Vintage at first! Then once dry and did their thing they became more marbled & cell looking! Very, very nice! 😍 Plus loved the pendants and the card papers! 😱😍 Would love to see what you made with those cards! 😍👍
What a coincidence, I'm painting Christmas baubles as I watch this, and just before hand I was dipping cabochons! I'm wondering, are your ornaments plastic or glass? Wondering if I can use my creme brulee torch on the plastic ones if I keep it on low.
I love your giggle. I do the same thing. I get so excited about the way the pours change into their own design. Awesome video . Thanks so much for sharing.
These ornaments are too cute...and I love that you used the pour off as pendants. I would’ve never thought to use them before they dried....nice tip. I have a UA-cam channel too.
It’s 2021! I love these! My daughter keeps asking me to make these! Now I’m going to! What kind of silicone did you use? How much? I’m so excited! Thank you!
Hi Jana, personally I use dimethicone which I purchase in the form of Durex Perfect Glide (purple and black bottle). You don't require much at all, just 1 drop per 1fl oz /30ml if that!
These are ALL just Gorgeous!!! I’ve got all my trees up, but when they come down :-(( a lot of the plain balls will go in boxes for decorating in the Summer for Christmas 2019🎄 I keep Christmas Alive allll year ♥️. Aaaand, I actually LOVE the white parts. Thank You for Sharing 💕💕💕💕
Hi there, those are beautiful!! I am wondering though how they will fare to store them without the clear spray. Is the paint going to soften and stick to the storage container? or do you spray them at a later date? thank you !!
Yes they are! Acrylic paint will only soften if wet so as long as they are dry and had at least 2 weeks hardening time they should be fine but I am not going to guarantee that ;)
You inspired me to try right side up. Canadian Floetrol jugs are shaped differently so I used a 1/4 inch threaded rod I had. Worked great and love how they turned out. Have them hanging on a wreath draped in my picture window so everyone coming to our door can see them. Thanks.
Hi Teresa, sorry for the delay in replying, I mix my paints with Floetrol (amzn.to/2BG5kka) and water and put silicone in some of the paint colours. Most of my paints I use are Reeves fine artist acrylics like these on Amazon amzn.to/2GwJBRC .
Cool, if you would add a longer string and rod higher you could have done the spin better. Long rubber bands would also work. But turned out nice. I take out the top and put on something like when I do vases, works great.
Hi Michelle, I use a very cheap house paint (Spring from Bunnings in NZ and Australia) that is a semi gloss acrylic/latex indoor outdoor paint mixed with floetrol and pva glue and water. I do have a paint mixing video if you would like more info.
As we say in Maine, these ornaments are “wicked cool!” Love the cells. I also love those marvelous drips. Ahh, such projects could be made with them. Love the cabochon idea. Glad I found you.
Thank you for welcoming me to your play space. I bet, I’m going to have fun there. I have yet to do a pour, however, I am fascinated with the variations achieved by different types of pours. Looks like you have tons of videos, to show me how, when I’m ready. In the meantime, I’ll enjoy watching your videos over time.
Just gorgeous! I love Christmas and acrylic pouring too! I'm so inspired, I have to make some of these! Thank you! Leta in Reno,NV USA. Happy holidays!❤❤❤
The popsicle stick is being held by a blue soft tact style dough called BLUE TACK. You can get it online or at most large box stores in the Office Supplies Department. It is fantastic stuff leaves no marks but holds well temporarily while You work / craft away!!! xo M
These are gorgeous, I noticed that the colour didn't cover the bauble on the bottom part where all the white is. Was that meant to happen? Also could you please tell me how much Floetrol and silicone you use? Many thanks. Cheryl from Australia.
Hi Cheryl, thank you. Yes it was intentional :) Recipes vary depending on the paint you use, I use Reeves and find that a 50:50 mix of paint and floetrol plus water works great for me.
@@McEArt Thank you so much......how much silicone do you use and is is per colour? I am a beginner and have seen a lot of your videos and they seem easy to follow, thank you. But I can't get cells, not sure why but I love what you did.
Loved those so much I made a few myself! Do you varnish them afterwards? I have some requests from people who want to buy them, but I feel they should be sealed first before they're sold to protect the paint. If you have any advice about that, it would be much appreciated :) Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful art with us!
@@McEArt i use krylon clear gloss to seal mine. I usually wait about an hour before I attempt to seal any of my work. ( ornaments, coffee mugs, 4'x4' ceramic tiles, 12'x12' ceramic display plates and solid white marble white wine chillers. I just started working on canvas prepared w kilz primer. They are tuen out great! Just don't learn the hard work from me, make sure that you so. Allow everything to dry completely before sealing and also, hold the sealant away from the items you want to seal, otherwise you will get these strange little dots. Some say the dots add to the homemade charm but as a perfectionist I don't like those dots and it doesn't happen as long as you do allow the ink to dry properly and you hold the sealant far enough away hopefully that helps happy creating it's such a lovely enjoyable thing
Thank you Sonia :) I use Durex Play Perfect Glide personal lubricant which is 100% dimethicone(the black and pink bottle) which you can see in amazon shop www.amazon.com/shop/mceart
I loved the white negative space. It made these so different and unique (just like the artist)!! :) And, just look at all the drippies to make other goodies!. Don't you just love the "created" words? lol Good job!
I love this video ! Thanks for this … I’m here in the UK & I watch lots of craft Utube . Most are InnAmerica ! & I’m always struggling to work out what products might want to the same !? … You all sound like u have the most choice of items to buy over there plus tons of stores ! .. always a delight & exciting though .. keep up the good work Xxxx
Really enjoyable, informative and inspiring! Your color choices are gorgeous. Love the pastel effects created from the drips. Where/how do you dry your cabachons? Also really appreciate your enthusiasm/joy -- "How much more fun can we have?!"♡
They look nice and bright
I love your playful approach: "What else can we create? How much more fun can we have?"
Awesome.
Keep asking questions and it will continue to surprise you what shows up :)

Awesome! So glad I can contribute to your inspiration! Thanks for watching :)
My thought exactly!🦋
One thing I really like about doing it this way is that I think the patterns look better when poured from the top
Yes me too!
Those are SO beautiful. Can’t believe how the cells form after you torch it … talk about WOW!

I so wish I had seen these BEFORE Christmas!! Just gorgeous, Michelle! I know what my friends and family will be getting next year 😉
Awesome! How does it get any better than that?
All so gorgeous!! Would love to see your finished cards😊

Very cool! Love the colors! I'll have to try this! think my tree might be covered by these next Christmas!
Awesome! How much fun can you have?
I love these! Can this method be used somehow for pouring INSIDE the ornament ? And what kind of torch did you use please? Is it an air torch?
Awesome the way you used all your paint and drippings. A stencil of a tree or ornament shape would make a really cool Christmas card from the drippings.
Yes I agree. Thanks for watching Wendy.
The one on the paper that you didn’t care for...the right side looks like an Angel 😇
I saw that too!! It is just as magical as Alcohol Inks!! No two are the same!! Amazing, xo M
Oh great spotting! Thank you!

What do you do with the bottom? Can you dip them so that it's not white or use another color base coat

It is called Blu-tac it is like poster putty. You can see it on Amazon at www.amazon.com/shop/mceart
