Your work is beautiful, I much rather hear you talk about your art than to hear music. Keep doing what your doing Im learning alot. Thank you Kelly from Florida
Absolutely stunning. I'm so sorry you had to redo all that hard work! Drawers can be such a stinker. A trick I learned is to take masking tape and number them as I pull them out🤭
Very creative. Eleanor, you are super-talented. Just finished watching your mirror design as well. Just gorgeous! One thing I would have done here, though is to downplay the drawer knobs. Maybe have little round, transparent crystal ones, instead. I find these bulky dark ones taking over the attention that is due to your beautiful design. Thank you.
Your work is so beautiful! You have a real talent!! And you seem really fun too, singing along while you work!! Would love to have you as my neighbor!! I do think that you should make more money because these are real custom pieces!! Great work!!💕
You Tube has everyone making things from designer cakes to recycling furniture trying their hand at making and selling, add in a pandemic and I’m surprised there are shops left selling anything. Craft suppliers must be making a fortune though .your work is lovely.
Please, spend more time showing off your work. I have to rewind, pause to get a good look. I think going in close with the camera to catch details and moving out to see over all look, even filming in different light would be good. You work so hard & do such a great job on these projects- *SHOW IT OFF!* ~Lisa from North Carolina, the States
@@redesignwitheleanorfurnitu8576 That makes perfect sense. Brilliant work. I do wish you could be earning more money with your skills. However, you are helping others to learn/develop their technique. I appreciate you.
Lovely! I couldn't see where you messed anything up...but can only assume you had a drawer upside down when you were putting the flowers on?! Loved the end result. x
Ahh thank you I use redesign with prima moulds I would love to try the iod but too expensive to ship from America and to be honest I use any paint which is on offer
I have looked and looked and I can’t really see anything wrong. Perhaps the flowers to the left of the black pull handle on the middle drawers are different but it may just be that the camera doesn’t show it well. Even if they are different it still looks awesome!! 😊
I had to go over the video as I couldn’t remember what I’d done wrong I’d Claude the drawers in the wrong order for how they fit in the unit so had to remove the clay and start again 🤣
Love your work, but the knobs throw everything off.Try using Apoxy clay(Amazon) and make your knobs out of the same moulds that you are using... it will just stand out higher, but blend in from a distance. Apoxy clay dries rock hard, perfect for knobs. Just a thought, your stuff is beautiful. 👍😊 Just a second thought... maybe use the bird mould as the knob, that way it looks like it's hovering.🙃
Love this technique ! I really want to try it but can you tell me how resilient the motifs are ? Do they crack or break off the units ? Do you seal them ?
MS.E....What do you mean by WAXING? What product do I use to do that? I dilute some gorilla glue and paint over the clay....they seem to turn out harder w No cracks BUT they can turn yellow-ish...which I have no concerns bc I'm painting it anyways! Can I ever use Modge Podge?
I think there are pros and cons to everything. So you can sell more artistic stuff and at higher prices in the big cities however you also pay more for the things you buy to fix up.
Hello Dear, I just have to tell you that You are a Wonderful Furniture Artist...Yes, an Artist after My Own Heart....❤️ When my husband finishes our cabin, I plan on doing a lot of your style in our cabin for decor and I can’t wait.... Have you seen the furniture companies that do this type of furniture art and what they charge? In the thousand dollar plus range, therefore, the people from your country should be proud to own one of your Art Pieces.... Beautiful Art Pieces You Are Creating! Respectfully, Marley from Missouri USA
With the questions about drying the clay in the moulds, I wonder if other people are using Was modeling clay since that type won't come out wet. I do d that our the hard way I really had to dig to get it out and then scrub away a lot at the moulds to gets it all. Your clay is white right out of the package so I'm guessing that it's paper clay?
Would love to sèe a video showing exactly how you use the Das. Do you let it dry out to lose some of its tac? Do you work it first? What's your trick. I looked it up and think they only make one kind in two colours.
Hi it depends on the paint if it’s chalk paint then yes if it’s an eggshell paint then no. I don’t have any preference I prefer eggshell as you don’t have to wax which is the part I hate doing
@@redesignwitheleanorfurnitu8576 ok that's one place I didn't check!! Tyvm!! You do such beautiful work!! I could listen to yr beautiful accent all day!!
15:08 Is there a community posting board in Birmingham? Put up a few pictures along with your number. A shop that would show your pieces but then you'd have to share the profits. Word of mouth from the man and your regulars. You've switched the bottom drawers to the top and opposite sides but other than that, I can't see any mistakes.
Hi Angela I’m fine now thank you I had a lot happen over Christmas and I had a few messages saying I do the same things over so I thought I’d take some time out plus I had to get a job as well to help out. I still do furniture most days I just haven’t been in the mood to film as people were also commenting on my bad footage so I will be back just don’t know when. Thank you so much for asking about me 🥰
I do do both I had a pair of lovely solid wood bedsides and in the end they sold for the same amount it’s like people have a set limit and that’s it if I had a shop it might be better
No I’d placed the drawers in the wrong order before I placed the moulds so the pattern didn’t line up properly so I had to remove them and do it again 🤣
Oh that sucks ! It’s so what would happen to me 🤣😂! I was hoping you could shuffle the order of the draws & make it match up. Well I guess you will never make that mistake again 👍🏼😁!
Hi guys I’m so sorry the voice over has gone haywire I’m not sure what I’ve done 😂😂😂
Kl
You are doing great!
You are my new favorite! Love you girl!
I thought it was a thing you were trying 🤣😂! Very artsy 👍🏼
I'd rather have the talk than the music myself. I think glass knobs are pretty as well. For just a bit of color.
Thank you 😊
So lucky to have all the natural light & beautiful scenery!!!
Thank you
You're so hard on yourself. We British love self-depreciating humour, don't we? Give yourself the credit you deserve.
Thank you 😊
We Yanks Love Her as well and MISS HER DEARLY !!!!
OMG, I love your work and you can not do anything wrong. Never found what you thought was wrong. Absolutely beautiful!!!!
Hi bonnie I’d Claude the drawers in the wrong order so had to remove it and redo it 🤣
Your placement is absolutely beautiful thank you for sharing
Thank you so much 😊
Your work is beautiful, I much rather hear you talk about your art than to hear music. Keep doing what your doing Im learning alot. Thank you Kelly from Florida
Thank you so much Kelly for the kind words ☺️💐
I envy you all those moulds! They are just so expensive.
They are but I’ve been collecting for 5 years it takes time
Another beautiful project, thank you for sharing.

Beautiful!
Thank you!
Watching from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA. Love these pieces, great job!
Thank you so much Lisa
Love them.💖💖💖💖
Thank you so much ☺️
Watching from Western Australia, just beautiful..
Wow thank you so much ☺️
Very creative. Eleanor, you are super-talented. Just finished watching your mirror design as well. Just gorgeous!

Thank you I did change the knobs to some glass ones great minds think alike 🙂
Gorgeous!!!!
Thank you
Ooh lovely 😍

You Tube has everyone making things from designer cakes to recycling furniture trying their hand at making and selling, add in a pandemic and I’m surprised there are shops left selling anything. Craft suppliers must be making a fortune though .your work is lovely.
Thank you so much Catherine ☺️
Beautiful as always. Not feeling the dark hardware. Thanks for sharing 🤗

Amazing!

Thank you for the advice I will do this in future videos ☺️
another reason to put the clay moulds on wet is that you can mould/bend them to the shape of the dresser and it creates a more organic final result.
Yes I like to fold them round legs and corners
@@redesignwitheleanorfurnitu8576 That makes perfect sense. Brilliant work. I do wish you could be earning more money with your skills. However, you are helping others to learn/develop their technique. I appreciate you.
I like it better when you talk x
Thank you 😊
Nice!!
Thank you Michelle
beautiful
Thank you ☺️
Wow ❤️ it!
Thank you so much 😊
Lovely! I couldn't see where you messed anything up...but can only assume you had a drawer upside down when you were putting the flowers on?! Loved the end result. x
Yes the top draw should have been the bottom draw I won’t do that again 😂
What are the best moulds and what chalk paint do you suggest. Thanks so much. You are a joy!😊
Ahh thank you I use redesign with prima moulds I would love to try the iod but too expensive to ship from America and to be honest I use any paint which is on offer
lovely
Thank you
I would like to put something like this on a journal cover
Would look stunning 🤩

Thank you for the great comment I have since used the moulds to make my knobs which I’ve done a video on I like the idea of the birds 💐
@@redesignwitheleanorfurnitu8576 i need to catch up on your creations.love what i see so far 🙃😊👍
Love this technique !
I really want to try it but can you tell me how resilient the motifs are ? Do they crack or break off the units ? Do you seal them ?
I’ve not had any break or fall off if they dry to quickly they can crack and once I’ve painted over them I will wax them with the rest of the piece
MS.E....What do you mean by WAXING? What product do I use to do that? I dilute some gorilla glue and paint over the clay....they seem to turn out harder w No cracks BUT they can turn yellow-ish...which I have no concerns bc I'm painting it anyways! Can I ever use Modge Podge?
I think there are pros and cons to everything. So you can sell more artistic stuff and at higher prices in the big cities however you also pay more for the things you buy to fix up.
That’s true 😊
This is so beautiful!!! Would you share which moulds you used?
Thank you the molds I used were fragrant roses, winter blooms and forest flora
I see... when you laid out your molds, the drawers were out of order. But honestly it still looks great!! Love your work and ideas!!❤️
Yes I had to redo the whole thing again 😂
The drawers all looked the same size to me so it wouldn't matter how they were arranged in the chest. What do I know? LOL
Where did you get your molds? Did not see that mentioned. Beautiful work.
Hi pauline I get my moulds from Etsy there redesign with prima
Hope this helps 💐☺️
I'm sure if you sell these on Etsy or Pinterest you would get a really good price (which you definatly deserve)
I’ve never thought about selling it on there I might look into it 💐☺️
Love love lindo lindo
Thank you so much Edna 💐☺️
Did you say you glue the mold on to your project while there wet, if so when do you paint it
Hi I pain them the following day when it’s all dry 😊
In love
Lindo!!! Onde encontro esses moldes? Aqui no Brasil não existe
Beautiful! Where did you get the molds?
Hi there all prima moulds and I get them from etsy

Amazing
Thanks 😊
What are you putting in the mold with the brush before you put in the clay. And is the clay a air dry clay, thank you
Hi I’m using talc in the molds first so they demold easy and yes it’s air dry clay I use DAS 😊

I do d that our the hard way I really had to dig to get it out and then scrub away a lot at the moulds to gets it all.

Hi it depends on the paint if it’s chalk paint then yes if it’s an eggshell paint then no. I don’t have any preference I prefer eggshell as you don’t have to wax which is the part I hate doing
What did you put on them the next day,I’m assuming some kind of sealer?
Hi I painted over them so it all matched
Where do you get your molds?
Hi Corrine I get all my moulds from Etsy there all prima moulds
Hope this helps 💐☺️
Hi there. I think you have something to close to the handle hole on one of the drawers??????? Jen from Australia
Yes I did 😂
Good morning from B.C. 🇨🇦🥀💕 I wonder if you have a link to your huge molds?
Hi I don’t but I get them from Etsy if you put in redesign with prima all the stockists will come up
@@redesignwitheleanorfurnitu8576 thank you so much dear.🥀
Do you use a little water with the clay?
No if once opened you wrap it properly it stays the right consistency
Where did you order yr moulds from? I can't find anything as pretty as yours!!!
Where do you get yr moulds?
There from etsey
@@redesignwitheleanorfurnitu8576 ok that's one place I didn't check!! Tyvm!! You do such beautiful work!! I could listen to yr beautiful accent all day!!
Would have painted knobs or put glass knobs on. BEAUTIFUL job.

I would like to have known what you are using. 😃I can hear you👏👏👏
Hi I’m using Das air dry clay, my molds are redesign with prima there from Etsy I stick them with gorilla wood glue hope this helps

just wanted to say how pretty the dresser is and maybe if you bought real wood rather than chip board you would make more money?
I do do both I had a pair of lovely solid wood bedsides and in the end they sold for the same amount it’s like people have a set limit and that’s it if I had a shop it might be better
What ? NO audio ???
Don’t you just have to shuffle the draws around or am I not seeing it ?!
No I’d placed the drawers in the wrong order before I placed the moulds so the pattern didn’t line up properly so I had to remove them and do it again 🤣
