As a very young child I loved doing decoupage. That would be back in the 1960's. Thank you for bringing that love back to me. You are fantastic and I absolutely love your humor! Stay true!❤
I like watching you because of the speed you do! I don’t like things to drag on so keep doing what you do at the pace you do! I love your projects and you are so entertaining and funny!
Brandi, I think the little ceramic/porcelain book is the most beautiful piece you have ever done. The hydrangeas and the gold accents and gold pages with the dry brushing is absolutely beautiful. I love you sense of humor. You entertain us as us as you do your DIY’s. The “crusty” word brings back to all the many times I watched SpongeBob SquarePants with my son and took him to the movies to see every movie that was made. And his birthday party that I throw for him and all his friends. It is hard to throw a economic and fun in door “Bikini Bottom” birthday party in January.
That is such a sweet memory!! You are so sweet my friend! The book really is pretty and I had so many others I truly loved that didn't make this list. It was hard
Scanning thru UA-cam.. hmmmm 2 hour compilation with Brandi and coffee… or housework (my 2 yr old grandson was here all day yesterday) and guess what won out?? Hands down. Not a second thought! 😂😂😂 thank you for sharing your knowledge, creativity, humour and absolute class!
💙❤️💚💖 Don't tell anyone but I am going to start working on a compilation that's all brand new. Might take me a few months but I got ideas..lol I hope you had an amazing day!!! Thank you for the love and support
I'm not usually one for the longer videos but I gotta say...I sure enjoyed this one! I LOVE decoupaging so I really appreciate all your tips & tricks & how-to's. Thank you Brandi.
Brandi, I love them all. The real show-stopper for me is that owl! He is just gorgeous! Thanks for yet another great video. I can't wait to see what you get up to next.
Oh Brandi, I really loved everyone of these especially the little owl, I just love owls!!! You have inspired me to make some of these. I am now addicted to decoupaging!! 😁 I could watch you decoupaging all day! Thank you so much for sharing all of these ♥♥
Very very cool “mod podge” (can’t spell 🤣) Brandi can I hang with you-like just forever!!!??? Just to absorb your mind! We would have a blast! You are bright and talented,willing to share your idea, + give us handy tips and tricks. Thank you. I pray this month is overflowing with stuff to share 😁😂👍💕🙏🏼
Incredible! While I would certainly never attempt several of these projects myself, I am entranced watching you. I'm also entertained. You are amazing!
First thing, the dog slurping the water... 🤣🤣🤣🤣I can't! What a beautiful piece it turned out to be! Stunning! Thank you for the cooking mit tip! How adorable your baby calf is. The finished product with the moulds is beautiful. Lol I now save all my crusty bit paintbrushes. Lol Thank you for all you do. Merry, Merry, Happy Happy.. all the things. X0
I just love you!!! You are very talented!!! When you started the cutting board, I thought, “ How in the world is she going to make this co- ordinate!” Anyway it was absolutely the most beautiful piece I’ve ever seen!!!💜 I’m now a believer, but I think I’ll have to send my projects to you; probably why you don’t leave your address 😊 Thank you so very much for your wonderful instructions. Pauline-Kansas 🎄
I love that piece so much! That Napkin is still one of the most beautiful I have ever came across! ( love you girlie) and encase I do not get a chance to tell you Happy Holidays my sweet friend, to you and yours!
Projects are beautiful as always... that table is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! The stain art - WOW!! Stunning!!! Oh I just love them all… you seriously are sooooooooooooo incredibly talented!!!!!
It sold the second I put it up for sale! I used to do way more than I have had time too recently! I hope to change that next year! Thank you so much for the sweet comment
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Brandi I'm a newbie to your tutorials, I enjoy watching them.😮😮 WOW you are an amazing crafter., and I ❤love your sense of humor ❤❤❤❤. Thfs ❤❤❤❤. This is the 2nd time I watched this tutorials ❤❤❤❤ # replay. Anna in the house with you. I'm from New Mexico ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just a thought: on the crafts you hate waiting to dry: do try doing before your ready to get to bed. When done you don't have to wait ❤😂❤😂❤❤❤❤❤ # REPLAY. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC BEAUTIFUL, DYN-O-MITE !!!!!❤😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
Enjoying your videos very much and just subscribed. I like that you are adventurous in your choice of materials and that you show your mistakes so we can learn. Your napkin choices are superb! I wanted to suggest a scissors which I cannot live without and don’t see many YT crafters using. It’s the long multi-media one made by Fiskars. (They make one that is shorter, also). It cuts heavier and thicker items such as cardboard, thin woods, skinny dowels, etc. I would not use it on wires however; use wire cutters for that. I am a stickler for using scissors specifically for the materials they are made to cut. Looking forward to more of your decoupage videos. Blessings on this holiday season.
Brandi it continues to amaze me how much I LOVE all your videos - the ones I've already seen and even the ones that are not my style!! I appreciate your humor and your oops! I'm so interested in knowing what the tattoo on your left lower arm says (if its not too personal) Thank you for sharing your amazing talent! 😊🙏
This means a lot to hear!! Not to personal at all. I posted the poem it's from on my Facebook page I had so much interest in it. It says Let them. Go to Google and type in let them tattoo meaning. A bunch will pop up. Hope that helps
Im new to your channel and ive thoroughly enjoyed your work. Youve cracked me up too mate! Lmao when you were dissing the paintbrush people not gluing the ends. Ill be binge watching more videos now as I'm too bloody tired to craft after a full of day babysitting my grandbabies 😮 great work ❤
Just discovered your channel and am loving it. I have been collecting packs of napkins for 2 years mostly from home goods. Thank you for all of the ideas! Merry Christmas.
Home goods is a banging spot to grab napkins! I hate the prices sometimes when its 5.99 or 6.99 for 16 napkins..lol but sometimes the designs are so fire I have to get them!!!
Ji, I'm new yo your channel but got to let uou know much I enjoyed it. Your little break aways are so funny. Your humor made it do much fun. Your projects were so pretty.
Girl I really wanted to add some books in here a few more glass pieces! My next will have to be a top 50 or something next year..lol I felt like I left so many of my favorites out! The top 5 in this were really all on the same level for me!!
You have amazing ideas! You inspire me. I hope to succeed on youtube like you have. I love how this turned out. I wish you a very merry charismas and a happy new year.
Brandi, loved this video... My favorites were the last 2... The gnome & owl. Those really showed off your talents. Hun you are so very talented. Hope you have an amazing Christmas! Take care my friend
Hi Brandi... Love your videos..... funny too, especially when you are in the corner..lol I also do crafts projects.... Hopefully soon I will do a canvas bag and napkin with mod podge.. I look forward to see what have for next year... Merry Christmas
Brandi, I stumbled on a crafter who had a store bought mica power paint. She had to stir and stir and stir to get the mica power off to bottom of the small container even and the end she scraped the bottom of the paint container and still brought up a lump of mica power and paint. What do you are your thoughts on store bought mica power paints? Is it better to buy the mica paint and mix in with you on paint, and what type paints should you use? Thanks for your time and reply. I have referred several new crafters to your channel who needed help with mod podge. Thank for posting the tutorial in the discretion no. Merry Christmas to you and your family. You have “Smurf Fingers”. The floral deco podge vase is still beautiful with the glow of the candle in it. You need a water pen brush to help you with your napkin “cutting”. I love the “HOME” sunflower sign. My personal thought is the “HOME” lettering color would have looked better in black, yellow or dark green. White off set the SUNFLOWERS.
Wow, I’m impressed Brandi! I mean…. Everything u do is always amazing, but some if these really are just beauty-ous!!! That “picture “ of the mama n baby cows with the barn was damn near perfection!! SO beautiful! You really are SOOOOOO talented! Ty for bringing your genius to YT to share with the world!!!❤❤❤ always LOVE your videos! I haven’t looked yet so I’ll ask before I search, but….do u have any Christmas napkin bundled available, by chance?? And…. if (more likely WHEN) I order a bundle, would/could u be so kind as to add one of those blue n white napkins that u used on the chicken pig n cow??? Pub-leeeeeeeez??? ❤❤🙏🙏🙏🫶
Brandi , would spritzing the napkin before adding to the mod pogde book help it to not dry out so fast ? I’m asking you before I try it then I will know if I had a good or bad idea 😜
Curious if you can recommend an adhesive for placing a cut out acrylic painted canvas image onto an existing acrylic painting ( basically a collage effect ); Txz jeanne
Denise knows me so well..lol I am not a fan. I have used it and demonstrated it a few times on here. Its just not a prefered way for me to do anything unless I may see a need for it!
Have you heard about the method where you put the mod podge down and then you let it dry and then you put the napkin down and you heat it up with a little iron
right now none... lol long story But, I was using a Canon color image laser I've used epson laser Hp inkjet. Hp color laser Let me know if any of that don't help
The gnome : if he would be real I have to believe he would go ooooo, ooooo. Watch it girl. Now with that said. I love gnomes. This turned out awesome. I like it a lot.
Help Brandi, I have ordered Mod Podge twice now from Walmart and both times the mod podge is gummy. Impossible to use. How can it be made usable? Is there a way. Please, please help! 😫😫😫. Using delivery has its downfalls and I guess this is one. However even if I were to purchase this stuff in person, I’m not sure I would be able to pick a good bottle. Kind of like picking a canned ham. PLEASE HELP! Thank you Brandi!
@@thediystruggleDo you have any Mackenzie Childs napkins that you would sell? I'd love to find a couple of the frog 😊 I have tried to order some different styles from the actual Mackenzie childs website but they wont sell less than 4 pkgs of each kind. For people that sell them it's worth it but for personal use definitely not lol 😊

To make frames, a really frugal option at Home depot is the PVC molding.
Yes it is! It can be a paint to repaint at times. But, it deff can be cheaper! Good tip!

Hi! If you put a thin piece of wood under your tags when you drill the holes it should keep the wood pieces from tearing out.

right now none... lol long story
