I’ve been watching different creators from all walks of life. You are the first and only one I’ve seen who keeps it real, fails and all. You don’t fake it just to make it. I like how your videos are informative and easy to follow. Lastly I love your sense of humor don’t ever change ❤
I just you white school glue with my foil and it works great! When I brush off the extra foil I put say letter in a big baggy and dust off into the bag! Then you can use the flakes for another project! And no mess! Grt diy. They came out fab! 😊😊❤
I don't even DO crafty decoupagey stuff but I enjoyed the narration and video. You're so creative! I now know how to turn burlap into cement. I'll come back to visit from time to time so you can put a smile on my face once again.
I am stunned. That lion blew me away! I didn’t know t-shirt frames existed. YOUR laughter is infectious. Your sense of humor kicks the hilarity up a few notches. Your talent is phenomenal! That combined with the patience that you use explaining every single thing makes me wonder (yet again) why don’t you have 100k subscribers? We, as your viewers, are failing you. We need to be sharing your videos to get you the exposure needed to make that happen. All of the projects are amazing. I’m overwhelmed with creative ideas of my own. I need that hard bowl in my life. It needs to live on my entryway table as a catchall for all of the beautiful things from nature that all of my family and friends love to share with me. Think rocks. Feathers. Pieces of colored glass that I can’t stop myself from picking up from the street when we visit New Orleans. The raw edge wood with the book pages. Oh. Immediately my brain started thinking. Smaller round slices. Old dictionary pages. That technique for tinting the pages. A small paper cut out of various shapes. Bear. Moose. Wolf. A single word. Word porn. Hung on a small tree. I won’t bore you with the million other ideas that you inspired. WHY aren’t you sponsored by mod podge? You use them in almost every diy video you make. Is there such a thing as an ambassador for mod podge? I saw the shopping video where you picked up those foil bits. I’ve been waiting to see how you used them. I was thinking hmm. Shiny but not glitter. Glitter and grits are both evil. You will find specs of them in random places for years. I will be watching to see if they appear in another video with a technique that works better. The potential was there. Again with the lion, your amazing talent shines through. Possibly you could figure out a way to put that lion on a t-shirt? Will we be seeing a third channel soon, featuring furniture art? Or perhaps content creation and video editing? Production?
Between the mod podge boogers (I gag with them too) and funny inuendos, you made me laugh and smile today! Thanks, I really needed that❣️ Keep being you girl ❣️
I missed your live, so I am watching the replay! I really loved how these DIYs turned out. Everything was so beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing and for showing the different techniques. I alway get a kick out of your little remarks and the sound effects! I can't wait to give these all a try!! ♥♥
I think the foil and the flakes may have worked better if you painted on a second coat of mod Podge first before foiling. The first coat sinks into the wood and doesn’t stay on the surface enough to grab the foil but it will seal the wood. Second coat will stay on the top more so it should allow the foil to stick.
Sanding the unsparkly flakes might have leveled them out but that demo showed me that I need some sparkle. But I understand that old saying, ya gotta dance with them that brought ya. Lmao 🎉😂❤
So happy this video popped up today. I've shared it on two separate Pinterest boards. I also subscribed with this video. Can't wait to see your other videos.❤
You are a hoot! cracked me up when you were pulling that Mod Podge tickening out, I laughed so hard I woke up my Hubby! lmbo love all your talents.. Have a great week Barb
You are always so inspiring!!! I have a couple of stencils I like to do like your Lion… I’ve always loved the way you pain your stencils and the girl you did on the desk has to be my favorite by far🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 have a wonderful weekend my friend☺️☺️
Love all these hacks!! I just did the heat transfer method this morning and loved it!! I’ll never look at mod podge the same again. I used to not like working with it!!
I just found you, I am so glad I did. You made me laugh and gave such good ideas. I also love your off color comments, please never stop doing that. I am now a new subscriber!
Girl!😂😂 This needed an R rating!😅 I laughed so hard, tears ran down my leg!!😂😂 Great hacks. I'm going to try a few, that "puffy paint", I'll do on a smaller scale.
@@thediystruggle Me too!! LOL! There is a downside to finding your channel though………. 🙄😕 And that is, that your creativity, humor and your great tips are going to be costing me a whole lot of my time! 🤔 …….. 😐 ……. 🤨 ………because now I’m all inspired and ready to start creating many fantastic DIY-projects and that will keep me from doing my ‘mundane chores’…! 😂😂😂 👍😘
These are all great Brandi, I love the bowl as much as your commentary lol!! All projects are awesome but I think my favourite is the lion, he’s gorgeous. I’m going to try the decoupaging on the wood pieces, I love the painting on the paper. I have some similar paper and lots of wood things do I’ll use them. The stuff you used on the stencils is great but have you ever thought to use lunar paste it’s Simon Hurley stuff with so many colours and he has such great ideas on his videos for mixing the colours etc. he makes cards but you can use the lunar paste for lots of stuff. I don’t have any yet but I’m getting some. TFS Brandi.
Thank you for sharing these ideas, when watching the mod podge "boogers" I have this happen all the time with paint, I call them paint clots..lol After watching the video it gave me an idea to help seal these cheap canvas from crafters square, works perfectly. When painting on them without the mod podge they would end up bending and absorbing too much water. Great video, it has given me some great ideas to move forward with my projects ❤
This is amazing. You're awesome for coming up with things I could ever imagine existed. The lion was so gorgeous. T- shirt frames? When did they come about? Where do I get them? Thank you Brandi for all that you do for this channel. It certainly is very much appreciated.
I love it all but I’m especially in love with the lion ❤. One question though…. Do you take the stencil up while it’s still wet or wait until it’s all dry? I need to know because I’m definitely doing this
I’m a first time viewer. I love your videos ❤ I love that you put everything on video, especially the “oops” I messed up 😅 I also like your humor and that your voice doesn’t put me to sleep. Your video has made me a new subscriber 😃
❤ YOU 🎉 XOXO I Truly Needed your making me giggle 🤭. Tfs 💕 awesome ideas and creations Inappropriate rocks at times 😂😂😂 love ya 😘 XOXO Keep up Your awesome
OMG, You are hilarious....I have to agree with another comment about 2 coats of MP when foiling those letters. The wood looked unfinished. And on another note, I have used plastic wrap and aluminum foil when doing a stuffy bowl...lol. it stayed put better and held on to the tape. Love your videos and am now actively seeking others...lol. thank for the laughs!
When you use flakes dump them in a saucer and use a brush to push the flakes onto the glued area. Brush over the flakes to remove any excess. Return leftover flakes to the container. I come here for the laughs as well as the tutorials. 😂😂👍👍
Omg that stiffy modge podge will give viagra a run for its money. Lol absolutely Beautiful results. That foil from the dollar store is for use with resin art. When using the other gold foil thin sheets use a smaller regular paint brush like the one you applied your modge podge with. I absolutely love your idea of adding the mica powder to create puffy paint. Thank you so kindly for sharing your wonderful talent and videos with us all ❤Take great care and keep creating your wonderful videos ❤️
Girl, I want to go out and party with you!! You are so funny....we could be great friends. Now, down to business. I ALWAYS seem to love EVERYTHING!! Those wood pieces scream bookends to me. I don't have any live edge wood, but I want to try that on regular wood. I love the colors ... And that lion, WOW!! Thank you for always giving us awesome inspiration with hilarious comments to keep us laughing. THANK YOU!!
The wood slices are beautiful. The stencils has beautiful designs and came out beautifully on the wood slices. I had a crocheted dollie made into a bowl. By this method. The cat knocked it off the coffee table and our little puppy got and chewed on it. I was so upset about it. Thanks for showing me how I can patch the hole. What kind of Lion is he? A freedom Lion?
Hey. I randomly stumbled across this video and instantly subbed. I love your personality! I don’t care what your talking about just keep being you :) authentic and damn funny as hell.
I hate that those foil bits didn't take, Brandi, but the gold foil is beautiful! 😍I won't be purchasing those bits for decoupaging. I love your paint color choices on the decoupaged wood and the stencils. Your creativity is out of the park! 🥰 I always love your choice of stencils, girlie!♥

Love you girlie!!!! Thank you!! ( BIG HUGS)
I really love the last one
But all of them are cute
Absolutely love the wood diy with paint and modge pudge
That lion is spectacular!!Love it!! I have so many ideas to recreate using different images!! Thank you Brandi!
Well again a video with some great techniques. And info. Like them all. Thanks. 😊😊😊🧡💛👍👍
Love the projects. I enjoy the details that you provide - like why mixing Mod Podge with the paint is beneficial. Thank you. Keep the videos coming. 🙂
I think the foil and the flakes may have worked better if you painted on a second coat of mod Podge first before foiling. The first coat sinks into the wood and doesn’t stay on the surface enough to grab the foil but it will seal the wood. Second coat will stay on the top more so it should allow the foil to stick.
That's a great idea for me to try next time I do this!! Thank you!
Sanding the unsparkly flakes might have leveled them out but that demo showed me that I need some sparkle. But I understand that old saying, ya gotta dance with them that brought ya.
Lmao 🎉😂❤
I love your videos! You are super entertaining and so flippin funny! And a little naughty, okay a lot naughty! Don’t ever change❣️
Haha, I think we all can relate at times...lol mind hits the gutter
That Lion is Beautiful so Awesome
Literally in the last 12 hours, I colored my Mod Podge with instant coffee!
Lol
Awesome idea ❤
Did it work ??
Absolutely. I used it as the top coat, not as the transfer medium.
I would love to do that if I could get my Mod Podge to completely dry. That would be so much easier
Great hacks.
Good idea!
I love them ALL! I have laughed so hard though, I had to pause the video! So so great! 💕
Cool hacks - the lion was off the charts!
I appreciate that!!
Brandi I love all your creations. So beautiful.❤❤❤

I use double stick tape with foil it’s limited but great to line out things
😅. Hard, stiffie...can't wait to see what comes next.😂. Love these thus far.
I bet if you go over the gold you put down with antique wax, that would be gorgeous too! Thanks for these tips.
Oh for sure
I've learned so much from you 💖
I must say you made me laugh so much while trying to explain what you are doing. 😂
OMG, I laughed so hard I almost pee'd my pants!😂
I absolutely love the lion, I can see a hot mess happening here with that!
I love it!!!
I love that lion
nice graphics !!
When you use flakes dump them in a saucer and use a brush to push the flakes onto the glued area. Brush over the flakes to remove any excess. Return leftover flakes to the container.

You should try the mod podge and setting it on fire after you put it down on your peace that burnt edges look look so pretty
The wood slices are beautiful. The stencils has beautiful designs and came out beautifully on the wood slices.
I had a crocheted dollie made into a bowl. By this method. The cat knocked it off the coffee table and our little puppy got and chewed on it. I was so upset about it. Thanks for showing me how I can patch the hole.
What kind of Lion is he? A freedom Lion?

❤❤❤
Awesome hacks. Lena said your video editing is amazing and wants to know your tricks
Haha!! I'd be happy to share anything I can if it helps!!
FYI when mixing paint colors start with the lightest and add darker colors to it a very little at a time.
Enjoy your videos. Thank you!
I had the same thing to happen with Mod Podge and yes it's Gross 🤢
Haha so gross!

I have not?!?!?!?
