    I like the fact that you choose plaster of Paris for the details. It gives it that "old world" look because that's what was used long ago. Also love the song "Shut Up" with Little Violet. I'm hooked on your videos.❤

    I am actually in the middle of working on an identical mirror, roses already on it I got for $1.79 at Goodwill. I used Crockery then am thinking about gray patina wiped back then some dark & decrepit, then gold highlights, not completely sold on my thoughts yet! Beautiful how yours turned out

    Debi- I binge watched ALLL of your video's today! What an amazing ride! I wish someone retailed ANY kind of chalk paint in my area, but seriously Idaho isn't getting any chalky-retail love right now. Maybe in the future I will have a store and be a DIY retailer! So many beautiful pieces of art/furniture. I did an antique high chair about a week ago, added a stencil.. it was a dream! I was so pleased and excited! Hopefully I can do more projects.

    • @mship27
      @mship27 9 років тому

      +Debi's Design Diary I can recommend a retailer! They are called Downtown Shabby, check them out on Facebook they have such a beautiful little shop! I do some chalk painted jars for them. I have a fb page too, Chalk It Up to Love, its pretty new. I don't have a ton of projects on there yet. Yes it did take some time to watch all of them! My kids and I were sick so we just chilled, they watched movies I geeked out to furniture DIY vids :P

    I just saw this as I was getting ready to go back to your channel to see what's new and on the side where they list videos, there was one where this man made a rose from a plastic spoon -- I wonder if that would work, as well -- maybe on a smaller piece -- hmmm -- chalk paint covers just about anything and then you seal it -- those plastic spoon rose videos are all over the place and I wonder how people are using them?

    You could have used hot glue to make your roses too. I use it all the time to make trinkets with silicon molds. I like to use the hot glue gun to make my charms because they are durable. You can paint them and they are flexible 😊 this project came out muy bonito!

      Babushka Sisters I used plaster of Paris and it is NOT flexible at all - it chipped and fell all apart out of the molds - don’t use it... paper clay is a much better choice😊 I’ll try hot glue like the lady above mentioned too.
