Please leave in all your fails. It makes the rest of us feel so good about ourselves lol sometimes I try to re-create a DIY and it just doesn’t come out right so I appreciate this
**CRAFTING ADVICE** When using any spray paint like the Stone spray paint, ALWAYS sand your surface especially if it’s shiny plastic! It also helps to always use primer first to help the adhesion, then always seal your paint after you reach the layers of paint that satisfies your desired outcome. As always, thank you Bandi!!! I absolutely LOVE all your videos and the many laughs. Showing us that crafting is supposed to be FUN and NEVER set your expectations to perfection. Crafting is art and the beauty of creating art is it’s NOT supposed to be perfect, it’s impossible! Keep sending us your awesome videos!!!❤️
Hi Brandi! Wow! That balloon is stunning. What an awesome idea. I have had issues with the expensive spray paints also. I bought one can and it didn't work nothing would come out. Took it back 3 times for exchanges each one did the same thing finally I just quit trying. So excited to see you have the avian news paper back in stock Yippee!!! Just ordered. Thanks for all your inspiration. Have a wonderful weekend
On that texture spray, if I just spritz it on in light thin coats it has worked out great for me. It has stuck to everything I've ever used it on and dried well , just using very light coats and building it up. I love your channel!
Just realized I didn’t leave my name- Hello Brandi-My name is Chris and it is a pleasure to “watch & listen” with you! You have a wonderful sense of humor too!😃😂👍😄💕🙏🏼
Brandi, I was less than 5 minutes into this video, 1st time meeting you AND…😄🤣♥️love your style! You are gifted and have a realistic attitude towards so much. I love your talent and am so grateful you are willing to share it! Thank you Brandi! Can’t wait to see what else you will show us. Looks like another binge watch this afternoon!😁👍👌💕🙏🏼
So cute 💞 but that balloon 😍😍😍. GIRL!!! That is freaking AWESOME! I love to decoupage & I'm hoping some day soon to be able to snag some of that beautiful paper you use 💖. So cool, so cool
I loved how these all turned out! Missed the premier and missed chatting with you and everyone else! Thank you so much for sharing and for explaining how & why you do the decouping! ♥♥
I’ve been watching your videos for a long time now. I love how you give instructions and entertain us at the same time! You are a true inspiration to me Brandi! Thank you!
I think you have to do a base coat of another paint before the stone paint. I used it on furniture and did a base coat of chalk paint first. It did take a little longer to dry, but it did stick.
Hey my friend. You are a huge inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful paper and projects. These turned out beautifully. I can’t wait to try them.💜💜
Brandi sometimes it is cheaper to buy a new tool then to just buy a new battery.I really like the balloon with the butterflies and hot air balloon.Thanks Brandi.
Happy New year!! Whew!! So blessed to still have you with me Chanda!! I can't belive you are not tired of me yet!! I'm soo grateful!! I hope this year is so amazing for you!
You used the floral stickers! Love how all of the projects turned out. I'm here in Texas visiting my daughter. Your projects peeked her interest. Looks like mom will be making something while I'm here. Thank you for the inspiration.
You can rebuild the battery pack for that glue gun. My husband rebuilds his drill batteries. I love your decorative papers. I wish your cow papers were holstien cows. I collect them.
Advice: The stone spray paint won’t dry unless you shake it well before you use it. I also would paint a primer of chalk paint or sand the item if it’s shiny plastic
I love watching your content. I think you commentary is hilarious 😂!! Your projects are gorgeous as well! Just wanted to say that tacky Glue has a Turbo version that dries really freakin quick!! Also there is a way to “jumpstart” your dead power tool batteries. There’s prob lots of tutorials out there but I know Mathew Peech has a short and a video explaining it!!
That stone texture was unfortunate!! I used it on a kitchen counter- it dried then I used a clear coat. Really pretty but I don't know what happened on the bowl.The balloon is beautiful! 😊🙏
There are a multitude of different ways to do that, I just try new things from time to time and offer the information for everyone. Hopefully, it helps us all grow!! Great tip!!
@@thediystruggle I did some crafting with plastic and it can be challenging when adding paint. I love that spray paint though and I'm certain you'll find something to create. Happy crafting :-)
I have that sane glue gun and I have a love hate relationship with it. It never pulls thru the end of the sticks or pulls in the new ones, I have to push them thru myself. Hate it.
Yes we like to see your fails LOL however I've had good luck with that stone spray and plastic and I'm not being critical here LOL however I think you went in a little too strong from the rip unfortunately with that spray if you do smaller less is more basically you end up having to do two coats
Please leave in all your fails. It makes the rest of us feel so good about ourselves lol sometimes I try to re-create a DIY and it just doesn’t come out right so I appreciate this
I agree
❤❤❤❤ I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS DIY. THFS. #REPLAY ❤❤❤❤
# REPLAY AWWW SOO AMAZING ❤❤❤❤
Wow Brandi the balloon is beautiful and never thought to do that. It would be fun to do a bouquet of small ones.❤
I LOVE THAT IDEA!!
I JUST LOVE YOUR DECOUPAGING, AND ALL THE OTHER DIYS/ CRAFTS.... YOUR ARE SOO BRILLIANT GIRL❤❤❤❤❤❤ # REPLAY
Thank you!

Love the balloon, the stone spray paint needs a base/primer coat underneath and then spray it as lightly as you can
Where were you when I was making this ?!?!?! Hahaha. We gonna need to try this again!
That's the most beautiful paper on the balloon ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Brandi love them.
(hugs) Thanks for popping in and hanging out!
Love hanging out with you Brandy you're never boring that's for sure❤ love it all

I think that the stone paint works better if you use a base coat of paint under it
That's what I did
This wont be the last you see of this paint...muahaha..lol
As always these are great.😍😍
Glad you like them! Thanks for popping in Vickie!!

Thanks Brandi, I have to agree with others about the balloon, It's stunning! The first project was also sBalloon, You Crack me up girl ❤
I make keepsake boxes, and I use those same snowmen for feet.
I bet they are beautiful!
Love your creativity and wonderful sense of humor!! Stunning balloon!! I am always looking forward to your next video. Thank you ❤
So cute….. the balloon idea is so different…… love them all …… thanks

Hello! Happy Friday!
Happy Friday!!!
I love this! ❤😊
You can rebuild the battery pack for that glue gun. My husband rebuilds his drill batteries. I love your decorative papers. I wish your cow papers were holstien cows. I collect them.
Whew!! I don't have that much faith in me to rebuild a battery pack. Home depot told me I can just buy one...lol
Awesome share… thank you!
That's so beautiful 😍
Thank you so much Rachelle

Good thought!

💚💙💛
So pretty!
Thank you! 😊
Very cute designs ❤
Thank you! 😊
I have used the stone paint and had great results. Maybe it was that particular can
Its just MEEEEE...lol IDK but I am gonna try it again!
We need to see the fails. I think if you undercoated the plates with paint then the spray would stick
You have not seen the last of me trying that spray paint!
That stone texture was unfortunate!! I used it on a kitchen counter- it dried then I used a clear coat. Really pretty but I don't know what happened on the bowl.The balloon is beautiful! 😊🙏
That sounds amazing! And, thank you!
lovely!! I cant see any comments except mine😮
Cant you use a base coat of modge podge or chalk paint then put spray paint on?

@@PurrsMeowsHisses I hope so too! I love it also!! Thank you so much for the tips and chatting with me! Enjoy the rest of your weekend
I got there lare i wanted to ask what kind of clay you use bc you have hand issues like me and i need somn easy..?
Hey girlie! It is paper clay! I think I have the exact one in the amazon affiliate link! I hope that helps!
Where do i find your paper for sale? I cannot find the description box
Thediystruggle.com! I hope this helps!
Can you take back that paint?
I wanna try it in other things before I completely dismiss it..lol
I need it to work for me..lol
my tablet crapped out on me last night, never watched utube on my phone!
sCROLL OVER TO THE LIVE CHAT
..sorry caps..hahaha
where?
i found it
I have that sane glue gun and I have a love hate relationship with it. It never pulls thru the end of the sticks or pulls in the new ones, I have to push them thru myself. Hate it.
Same*
I've had better luck with the wall stickers when they're not on something painted.
They stick way better for me on glass!
