    Of all the talented crafters on UA-cam I can't remember being so impressed by each and every craft on the video. The way you see things and then are so remarkable at figuring out how to recreate them astonishes me. I wish I could do that. From the first projects of the "aged metal" butterfly and dragonfly, those amazing floral wall sculptures, to the puffy paint "concrete pots", the table riser, and this realistic "Galvanized" two tier tray your imagination and creativity shine. And then there were the "make over" projects like the wreaths, the wall sculpture from fence parts, the several signs, the picture box, the recipe holder ... your description fits. Genius creations all from the simple to the divine. Thanks for sharing your talents.
    I believe this is the first time I've been on your channel because I was not subscribed. I'm sure had I been here before I already would have been. Well, that's taken care of now! And I can't wait to watch another of your videos!
    P. S. You are extremely good in the way you video, explain and teach about how you created your projects and encouraging us that we can do the same.

    New subscriber here. I just found your channel tonight @ 1:36am and I absolutely love your creations. I love how you explain everything in a voice that's very friendly and the way you walk us through putting the crafts together. I already follow a lot of crafters and said I wouldn't subscribe to any more because it's been hard keeping up with everyone but, your style and creations shook me! I'm not and never have been a fan of the dry brushing technique, but that's just my opinion. I still think everything in this video is absolutely gorgeous. Take what you like, leave what you don't, and make it your own. Thank you and I look forward to many more wonderful creations from you.

    Hello this is my first time watching your channel. I am really HAPPY TO HEAR & WATCH YOU EXPLAIN in a way that is easier to go along with your explaining rather than some that are too fast & does not give a manner that gets me irritated for losing concentration and focus on where the instruction is at the time! You are much easier and believe men..I AM IMPRESSED WITH YOUR SHOWING, EXPLAINING AND GIVING US TIME TO WORK ALONG SOMEWHAT WITH YOU TO FINISH THE PROJECT THAT WE WANT TO COMPLETE HAPPILY! THANK YOU!!

  • @DeeEll86442
    @DeeEll86442 Рік тому +30

    I like your idea but might I suggest a few changes to how it’s put together. First, you don’t have to buy a toilet plunger 🪠. Walmart or the hardware store both sell wooden dowels that can be cut down and used for the rod. Second, if you don’t want to use the wooden rod an old or new towel rack kit can be used instead of the dowel idea. Third, the metal bucket should be painted with spray paint that can be purchased at Walmart in the hardware department. The reason I say to use the spray paint on the metal is because I have learned through experience that the paint you were using tends to crack and peel off of metal over time, especial if it is kept in a bathroom wear moisture can effect it. I know you sprayed a clear finish over the top but I’ve found that metal still needs the kind of paint that’s meant to a adhere best to it for it to last. I hope this helps. GREAT VIDEO 😁👍 Dee

    Questions- lots! What do you clean your brushes with when your done? Am I correct - you throw your foam brushes away? What do you use to get the paint off your fingers? As you can tell I'm a newbie to diy 😂, but I love your video!❤ Thank you for sharing your talents!!!😊❤

    • @LovinLifesJourney
      @LovinLifesJourney  Рік тому

      Hi Christine. Thanks for watching! I usually put a drop of dish soap in the palm of my hand and rub the brush back and forth (keeping the bristles together). Then I rinse it in warm water and repeat until I'm not seeing any paint come out. I do throw my foam brushes out unless I barely used it. To get paint off my hands I use a scrubbie like you would use in the shower with warm water and soap. I love that you are getting in to crafting. Keep at it!! 😊
