      Ha ha I never use masks.... Or use stamps on mounts.... I'm a rebel. However I do understand the need for these thing... I'm glad your heart was okay. You should see my cookery then I think I might make it stop as I throw everything I have in a pan say a prayer and hope its good....

    These chairs are stunning. I knew you could paint fabric, stencil fabric and put a transfer on fabric (as long as you're not going to wash it), but I had no idea it was possible to decoupage fabric. You are such an inspiration and so generous with your advice. Starting with chairs is a great idea. Not so overwhelming. I love that you added stamps to that autumn chair. I love that you're not a "less is more" artists. sometimes I look at the minimalist photos in decorating magazines and long for just one room that looks like that. But the moment passes. I don't have a minimalist bone in my body.
    I have a question. I'm about to go to your website and buy decoupage paper. When you were adding the stamps to the autumn chair I saw a piece of furniture in the corner with one of the pieces of decoupage paper I want to buy. I can see that the piece is being used to store cans of paint. Would it be possible at some point to just do a quick video of it? I honestly gasped out loud when I first saw that paper on your site. It's so beautiful. I love all your papers. It's very hard to choose.

    Hi Marley, I just found you today. Yay! The chairs look fabulous. Can something be done so that the chairs are more functional, as it everyday functional? Let me know or make another video. Thank you.
    I LOVE how to stamp and then paint inside. I haven't seen others do this. What an awesome idea. Thank you.
    Yes, already subscribed. I LOVE your ideas. Thank you.

    • @MadebyMarley
      @MadebyMarley  2 роки тому +1

      Hey Malgozata
      They are actually more hard wearing than you think. You could give them more coats of mod podge. I've done one and it's used a lot not quite daily. I think if you wanted to do this and use the chair as a kitchen chair the best way they would hold up indefinitely is to not add the decoupage it will eventually wear. ..
      Just paint the chair and mix your all in one paint to make a coloured background then stamp. ...it will last then...as the all in one paint doesn't crack or wear like paper.
      Hope these suggestions work. Thanks so much for subscribing and commenting.

    I do hope that someone bought these as a pair... They belong together even though their styles are so opposing. They would look so unique displayed together or around a dining room table. And to think you used tissue paper found at Home Goods ~ haha! Every new material you use, like the autumn stamps, I now want to own myself. This is getting expensive... I need to find some chairs to decoupage on, even though my workspace is packed to the brim. I force myself not to shop in my usual haunts, since until I sell some pieces there is not an inch of space to store it. Do your furniture purchases get stored, or do you work on them straight away? You always seem to find such great pieces. Prices are way toooo high in my neck of the woods. People would donate furniture far more often before Facebook Market Place was a way to sell them instead. Boo-Hoo

    • @MadebyMarley
      @MadebyMarley  Рік тому +1

      Thanks Sydni I'm glad you like the chairs. I actually kept them.... A hazard of the job.
      I store my furniture in the other half of the stable it's actually very big. On one side I put stock ready to paint on the other we cling any finished pieces and cover them in packing blankets to keep them good till they are sold.
      I buy lots from auctions locally and marty finds me pieces trawling all kinds of sale sites. I do have a cap price in my head that I will not pay over for furniture so I know I will make money as time is the most expensive thing and then paint and materials x
      I sometimes have to much stock or to many items painted depending on which I either market more or paint more ha ha

    • @MadebyMarley
      @MadebyMarley  2 роки тому

      Hi Bronislava
      The paint on the chair was a French chic paint. I believe it was called constance moss but the van was at an end and covered in paint so was unable to list what it was called. I've been looking to find out on Google and I'm sure that was the paint.
      I'm glad you liked the chairs and my favourite was also Autumn one.
