This was EXTREMELY helpful!!! Thank you for this video! I was searching online for a way to glaze without buying glaze. I figured there had to be a way. I am going to be glazing my wall paint and I lost my business to the pandemic so I don't have the money available to spend on anything like this. So, I'm going to mix brown craft paint with Mod Podge! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Well, I did it and it looks like leather! My son and his fiance are getting married in Dec. and building their cottage on our land. They liked it so much that they plan on doing the same to their walls. I LOVE thriftiness! Thank you again!
I have used PVA builders glue for the very same effect and the builders PVA GLUE is dirt cheap for large project's. It's been a nice experience to witness how other mediums have the same effect. Thank you for showing such a handy Tip. BIG THUMBS UP 👍😷👍🏴
Thank you this is one of the most amazing helpful hints. No one ever explains how to make your glaze they just jump into their projects. So thankful for your help
Thanks Kelly, I have all of those options available and didn't know they would work as a glazing medium. You have so many useful tips, I have to "check you out" everyday.
This came at a perfect time for me. The other day at Michaels they had all of their denim things on sale for 80 percent off so I got some glazing medium for the denim look for 99 cents. It doesn't have any instructions just links it to other products in that line. I was going to play around with it but at least now I know what it basically does. Thanks.
Huge thumbs up for this tip! I looked and looked for DIY clear mixing glazes and yours was the first I found after many attempts. The search engines kept steering me to purchase glazing mediums or blogs that are sponsored by such products. Imagine that. 😉 I’m looking forward to browsing through your videos!
LOL! I've come full circle! Your video on "Making your own glazing medium" from two years ago is the first video of yours I watched. :D And I like this one just as much! Thanks, Kelly!
Nice but u left out a lot of steps. What iwas hoping for was a lesson in creating a glaze. Using chemicals on a larger scale But i know its to advance for your video. Good luck to you and thanks anyway.
I wonder how long is the open working time for each kind of product? Because glaze not only works for transparency , it also provides open working time.
How come other people said that the kids glue doesn’t work well with acrylic !!?? Ok I’m going to try this method .. the glazing medium is a little expensive and I’m only a beginner ^ ^
I already bought 14oz of the glazing medium ^ ^ after watching many videos , and I see we can use a lot of it , so I thought to buy one just to keep and prolly will last forever for me ^ ^ , but thankyou for the video I will try it.
Kelly, I realize this is a old video, however I was wondering what homemade glaze you would use on large walls ?something that would be safe to paint over with laytext paint in the future when you need to repaint your walls. I was wondering if water-based poly acrylic would work as a glaze?
Thank you for this.. I live in Egypt where it's next to impossible for me to order things like the glaze medium.. so, this solves a huge problem for me. One question though.. do you have any idea if I mix some white glue with some acrylic paint and thin the mixture down, will it flow through an air brush, or will the glue cause problems for the air brush and get stuck inside? Thanks again :)
im glad i could help!! hmmmm the glue may get stuck if too thick--- i would try it but make sure you clean it out VERY good when done!! that will def ruin your gun!!!!!
Great video! Thanks for this. I was wondering if I could could get cells in a glaze. I would like to cover a solid area in a pour that doesn't look like it belongs with the rest of the painting.
I think any video showing tips and tricks is a great Idea - go for it! I look forward to watching it. I would also like to see what you did with the face in that green paint. (I thought "face", just before you said it! Lol!)
*Fab Value Share!* 1 Question - If you need a Water Resistant Glaze? I'm guessing that would be an Oil Based line. Any recommendations? Thanks - GREAT VIDEO!
Just do not, do not, DO NOT use Gorilla Glue! (or any glue that cures with moisture) ...although it could be an interesting experiment in texture painting where the texture comes up as a total surprise as it cures LOL.
im sorry--i thought i answered--- lol i talk to myself alot hahaha no as long as you clean your gelli plate well when u r done it should be fine--also u can use alcohol inks and gelatos on your plate!!!! have fun!!!!!
Hi!! Ok so let me get this right--you want a fixative to put over water soluable items to continue with another layer--I use mod podge ultra in mat-its a spray--you can use white glue all from Elmers- just add to a spray bottle with water and spray and ;let dry- then continue working on next layer--i hope this helps
HelloCaptainBlingBling yes if you brush it on. I make a mixture in a small spray bottle u can get at dollar store I use 3/4 mod podge and the rest water. Shake well and then spray and let dry and I will do it twice if I feel it needs it if I used a lot of crayons or paint underneath. I have a video on this somewhere I will have to try and remember to look tomorrow. Like I always suggest. Try this on a small sample to get the idea and how it will work for you.
They do sell a matte resin if that’s what you want to use. Also if u use a silicone mold when you take it out the inside part is matte so that could be ok for you too. Use a coupon at Michael’s and get money off so u can play Keep questions coming if u have them
Have you used this on a painting? Has anyone here tried this on a painting or art piece. I ruined the one I tried. This is glue and therefor it's sticky. This is not a DIY glazing medium that I would recommend unless you want to ruin a piece. I used the elmer's washable glue. It's one thing to do a demo on a piece of paper and another thing to use it on an actual painting because when I tried it, it was not a glaze. The first coat dried within seconds and than when you put another coat it made a horrible mess and ruined my art piece plus took some paint off too!
Awesome tutorial. Thankyou. Just wondering? Can this be used as a glazing medium on furniture? I've seen many vids on glazing, but the cost of the glaze is expensive.
Cool, Love your Demos Sis :) Hope your feeling Better...Is that your Moss colored Paint you where Looking for...? Off to get some work done...LOL...LYBM XOXOXOXO

Thanks for confirming that glue can be used as a glaze! I’ve used it for the crackle effect so wasn’t sure if it would work!
I am so happy you shared this. 1, I learned ,2, I Saved lots of $$$.
Just the perfect answer to my dilemma. Thank you, for saving from buying a product I don’t need .
Yay I’m so glad!!!!!!!’
great tip Kelly, I have some handmade beads waiting to be glazed, this will come in very handy. thank you xxxx
thank you so much saved me so much money . great tips
All good substitutes and great idea. Of course school glue is the cheapest so makes the most sense to me. But nice to see them all side by side.
LOL! I've come full circle! Your video on "Making your own glazing medium" from two years ago is the first video of yours I watched. :D And I like this one just as much! Thanks, Kelly!
great tips, thank you. I add Hair gel or hand cream to PVA diluted with 30% water which works for me.
Ooh great tip!!
thank you. i was trying to decide which bill i was going to take money out of for more glaze. :)
Hahahahahaha no need!!!!!!!
From my heart and my bank account, I sincerely thank you for this money saving tip!!!! Happy painting!!
Great, informative video. Thanks.

Great information! Thank you Kelly.
Thank u!!!!!!!!!

I wonder how long is the open working time for each kind of product? Because glaze not only works for transparency , it also provides open working time.
if u add a bit of water that will help with open time
How come other people said that the kids glue doesn’t work well with acrylic !!?? Ok I’m going to try this method .. the glazing medium is a little expensive and I’m only a beginner ^ ^
Have fun! Use glue all if not bit always try things out to see. Humidity and weather play a big part in it too
I already bought 14oz of the glazing medium ^ ^ after watching many videos , and I see we can use a lot of it , so I thought to buy one just to keep and prolly will last forever for me ^ ^ , but thankyou for the video I will try it.
Kelly,
I realize this is a old video, however I was wondering what homemade glaze you would use on large walls ?something that would be safe to paint over with laytext paint in the future when you need to repaint your walls.
I was wondering if water-based poly acrylic would work as a glaze?
If
You use a matte one and add a little bit of paint at a time until the consistently you want

So appreciate your clear and concise videos.
Do these products work on acrylic paintings on canva
What is the main purpose of a glaze? What look should it give to whatever it's painted onto?
Hi. It should give the look of layers. If you want I will do a quick video on it today for you to explain and show u and give u a shout out er me know
@@knittingandthings yes please, that would be so helpful.
ua-cam.com/video/1E-HFzDd6q8/v-deo.html
Another fun thing to try...Thanks Kelly
thats really great tfs
Great video! Thanks for this. I was wondering if I could could get cells in a glaze. I would like to cover a solid area in a pour that doesn't look like it belongs with the rest of the painting.
Can you use glazing medium with mica powder to do your own paints? Or does it have to mixed with ordinary paint?
Great video...great tips!!!
I think any video showing tips and tricks is a great Idea - go for it! I look forward to watching it.
I would also like to see what you did with the face in that green paint. (I thought "face", just before you said it! Lol!)
Thanyou so much .. 🙂
Very informative thank you !
Amazing, thank you so much!!!!
Keep the tips coming!
My credit union sent my statement. I am used less than 10.00 to buy everything I need for this gloss. Thank you! 🤣🥰😘
Great vid Kelly , thanks for the info 😀 sending hugs Sarah xx
Kelly would this work on paper stencils to seal them??? Thanks for the reply.

Hii can you please tell me that which one will good for mixing in resin ?
The glazing medium or paint. Paint can be acrylic and will work perfectly
Can these be used on background for painting
Kelly, do you think this would do any damage to a gelli plate? I want transparent paints for my gelli printing..
im sorry--i thought i answered--- lol i talk to myself alot hahaha no as long as you clean your gelli plate well when u r done it should be fine--also u can use alcohol inks and gelatos on your plate!!!! have fun!!!!!
Great video
Thank you
Will the glue ruin the brush?
What kind of diy glaze we can use to seal in water based colors in order to go in with another layer of water based color so that it doesn't smudge
Hi!! Ok so let me get this right--you want a fixative to put over water soluable items to continue with another layer--I use mod podge ultra in mat-its a spray--you can use white glue all from Elmers- just add to a spray bottle with water and spray and ;let dry- then continue working on next layer--i hope this helps
@@knittingandthings but a mod podge over water soluble pigments/ colors would smudge the entire art right?
HelloCaptainBlingBling yes if you brush it on. I make a mixture in a small spray bottle u can get at dollar store I use 3/4 mod podge and the rest water. Shake well and then spray and let dry and I will do it twice if I feel it needs it if I used a lot of crayons or paint underneath.

@@knittingandthings yes i will. Thank you.
Is resin not the best? Do the others not turn yellow?
Resin is great! Some people don’t like to work with it. I love it
@@knittingandthings is there such a thing as not so shiny resin? Like half gloss?
They do sell a matte resin if that’s what you want to use. Also if u use a silicone mold when you take it out the inside part is matte so that could be ok for you too. Use a coupon at Michael’s and get money off so u can play Keep questions coming if u have them

I’m sorry that happened u have to use Elmer’s glue all. Not washable
Kelly Donovan Knittingandthings you say in the video that the washable glue can be used for anything
Can use it on fabric
Yes you can
Neat. 😃👍🏻
thank you sooo much
You r so welcome. Anything else u would like me to do or show?
Awesome tutorial. Thankyou. Just wondering? Can this be used as a glazing medium on furniture? I've seen many vids on glazing, but the cost of the glaze is expensive.
I was wondering the same thing.
@@sealily6015 I actually did use this on some pieces a year ago and it worked perfectly
@@stepheather1 Thank you!
wont the elmers glue get crusty when it dries
So all of these can considered as a glazing medium !!?? Ok cool thankyou for sharing
Absolutely!
Ok thankyou..
Cool, Love your Demos Sis :) Hope your feeling Better...Is that your Moss colored Paint you where Looking for...? Off to get some work done...LOL...LYBM XOXOXOXO
What is it ? Oil or acrilic??

I dont recommend the elmers glue on glass However mod podge makes Mod Podge Dishwasher-Safe Gloss and that is awesome to use!
Very helpful. tfs
Thank u

Yes it could!!! Make sure u use mod podge or Elmer’s white school glue ALL
Thanks
