Wow! This is just amazing!! What software do I need to be able to use the template?
Hey Brittany :) thanks so much! I would just make them pdf’s do that that they can be printed anywhere without special software,
Honestly gonna make these for my bedroom year round
It would be super cool! I think if you replace the LED window part with mirrors, it would make a cool piece for a bedroom.
Super impressed with your quality and love the DIYs, the brick vid is my fav, keep up the great work! 👍🏻 You've earned a new subscriber here!
Thanks so much for the compliments and the sub, Eleth! More coming soon!
Hey Eleth! Just posted a new Industrial canopy bed video, would love to know what you think! Thanks :)
Love you work! So inspiring. Do you and may I get a download of the template? Please and thank you!
It's such a privilege to be able to inspire others... I'm happy that I've succeeded in doing that- thanks a ton for your compliment, Tom! I'll make the template(s) available soon and post where to download it on the Community Tab section.
Do you have the templates available on here?
Hi Ed, I’ll post them soon to the website. Would a pdf file work well for you?
You’re killing these videos man! Fucking love your channel
Dude! Thanx a ton 🤘 feedback like yours inspires me to keep it up
Hey brother, check the new DIY canopy bed video, if you haven't yet! Excited to share with you
Hi im new to your channel
Welcome to my channel, Tracey… let me know if you have any questions
great job, where can i get the template?
Thanks a lot! I’ll be releasing the templates tomorrow (Sunday, Oct 9). Check the community tab (if you’re a sub) for the link in the afternoon. Thanks for watching!
@@SeizetheDIY cool. Thanks bro
Plans please !
Hello, I probably won't be releasing the pdf plan files as they can be used to create products that I am currently working on producing.
I did look into making oversize prints and selling those on my website for the cost of printing, but they're expensive- about $100 which seems to work against economy DIY projects.
Any suggestions?
Freakin AWESOME!!! Love your merch hat😊
Hey! Thanks for watching and the nice feedback 🤘🏻
Just found your videos and I love them! So informative and easy to follow! I look forward to seeing more!
Thanks so much Christie! Glad they help! More on the way really soon :)
Hey Christie! I posted a new video on how to make an Industrial canopy bed, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
I just found your video while looking for a way to repurpose leaded glass door inserts. They already have a gothic arch, so I need something easy to shape. This might be exactly what I need, but how do you think the strength of the foam board would hold up to a 1x4.5 leaded glass?? Thanks so much for this beautiful project!
Thanks for watching! Glad it could help you… the foam is strong but idk if it can hold leaded glass. I used to have a workshop by a stained glass artist and his work was VERY heavy. I think I’d probably use the same technique I show in the video but with wood.
I absolutely love this. How long did it take you to make.
Thanks so much! Designing it was the most time consuming but cutting and building it took a couple standard work days on a weekend. I think it can be simplified down to 2 layers of foam which would be faster but would lose a little depth.
Amazed at your creative mind, new subscriber from Nairobi, Kenya. 👏🏾👏🏾
I really appreciate the compliment, dude! Thanks for subscribing- a lot more coming soon!
Hi Mwinzi, if you haven't seen the new DIY canopy bed video, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
@@SeizetheDIY already did, loved the lights you added to it. Also I'm amazed at how easy it is to get bed hardware where you are. 😅😅
@@kriskisilu Awesome! Thank you!
I actually didn’t use any bed hardware- I found a new way to use exterior deck and pergola hardware to construct the bed- there was some things I had to invent along the way but it worked really well! Haha The exterior hardware is widely available here, as you said though. Take care :)
Is there a way to get a pdf of the template? Really great build!
Thank you!
I decided to sell a wood version of the window in layers on the site instead- it’ll be up soon. You can use that to create an interior decor piece or as a template for additional windows in any substrate like the foam.
This looks great! Did you ever release the template? I'd love to try creating this - thanks!
Hi Sav :) Will be adding the templates for sale on the website soon… I’ll notify everyone in the community area when they’re up. If I can find a way to add them here on YT I’ll do that too. Thanks!
@@SeizetheDIY Sounds good! Would it be possible to get the Illustrator files also? I might like to modify the design
@@gavsarafian6170 you should be able to drag/open the pdf’s in illustrator once I put them up. Although, since they’re original work/copyrighted, I’ll probably just ask for a shoutout/mention if they’re used for any blog /vlog work or online portfolios.
@@SeizetheDIY Cool! Also - just wondering, what did you end up using the 2x2 panel for in your materials list? I'm having trouble sourcing one, but am not sure where you're using it in your build
I love how your window turned out.
I have seen a lot of various foam board projects on YT.
When I purchased my house the previous owners left a whole bunch of it along with cherry wood paneling, all kinds of tiles and other building materials. I think he must of did home remodeling and construction. He built a super cool treehouse; my grandkids love it. Very well made. I could see doing something like this to the windows. They were moving out of state so they left quite a bit of stuff which some I have already found use for as I love up-cycling.
I do wall murals and I like the 3D effects.
Fantastic! Working on a Harry Potter haunt this year and I hope my windows turn out half as good as yours.
Aw sculpting insulation foam board-now you’re speaking my craft language! 😁
If you do more projects with it in the future, spend about $20 and buy yourself an electric turkey carving knife. Trust me, it’ll make cutting it WAY easier and quicker!☺️👍
I wish I would've known before! LOL Thanks a lot for the tip : )
@@SeizetheDIY no problemo, I hope it helps! My sister does movie set/prop designs for a living and she taught me that lil info nugget while helping me turn my range into the ultimate Halloween haunt. 🤣
Hey! Just posted a new DIY video on how to make a canopy bed video, would love your thoughts! Thanks
@@glorygloryholeallelujah will you do any videos to show it off some time?
@@KvltKommando oh that’s a good idea!!🤔❤️
In a couple weeks, I’m about to start setting up the Halloween stuff for this year!
alright, now make a big mold and mass produce them so I can cover my bedroom window in these.
Thanks a ton! I'm actually working on a wood window or mirror kit for sale for interior use. Would you be interested in that?
@@SeizetheDIY absolutely
Just found ur page wtffffffff so good man
Thanks brother! I really appreciate that… tons more to come 🤘
@@SeizetheDIY I was super sad to see only two videos from you! I want to incorporate the faux brick wall with a gothic Victorian style in my bed rooom! Have no idea where to start 😩
Thanks Kris! just saw this comment... I just started the youtube channel a few months ago lol. There's a lot more on the way. I'm actually building my next project/shooting the video right now, but my work takes a little while to complete.
Sounds like a cool idea dude. I set the faux gothic window in my room and it looked pretty badass with the brick haha. I might do another tutorial at some point creating one from wood for use as a bedroom mirror. Hope my videos help!
Hey dude, if you haven't seen the new DIY canopy bed video, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
love the videos! Can't wait to see more of them.
Thanks Jessica! Much appreciated ☺️ I have more in the works right now!
Hi Jessica, if you haven't seen the new DIY canopy bed video, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
More videos please ⁉️😇
More in the works right now- keep following… the next video is shaping up to be the best one yet! 🤘
Hey Nani! I posted a new video on how to make an Industrial canopy bed, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
Incredible skills..🎃
Thanks so much!!
Great video!!!
Can't wait to see more!
Thanks Vincent! Working on a new vid as we speak… stay tuned :)
Hi Vincent, if you haven't seen the new DIY canopy bed video, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
@@SeizetheDIY Wow! haha thanks for the ping! watching it right now!
Lets Rock !!!
🔨 🤘
That’s so sick!!
Thanks Adora!
DUDE, YOU DID A GOOD TUTORUAL, BUT THE MUSIC IS ZERO
Thanks for stopping by- please use the subtitles.
I think music genres will probably always be something that no one completely agrees on and while I respect your POV, an effort to appease more people with mediocrity or palatable vanilla music would suck the soul out of what I'm doing and I'd lose my niche.
btw, I checked out your channel- while I really love your guitar work, it's probably not a genre I'd consider for my videos if it's the style that you had in mind for my soundtracks. Regardless, nice work man!
Hi, my apologize, l understand what you mean. Keep the wonderful work going, and l fully agree with what you said :)
Love it!!! Want to do this for my room now
Wow so amazing ... we need more videos
Thanks so much Houari! I’m working on more as we speak… I’ll begin posting updates for all my subscribers on the next project soon
Hi Houari, if you haven't seen the new DIY canopy bed video, please let me know what you think! Thanks :)
Awesome job 👍
Thank you!
I would love the template download
Thanks for watching! ☺️ Is your interest in creating a similar foam one or one from wood?
I’ll be offering the template/plans on my site soon for purchase and also started a Patreon where all plans (window, bed frames etc) are free for top members.
Alternatively, soon I’ll be offering interior wall versions made from wood with a mirrored panel instead of glass.
@@SeizetheDIY a similar foam one
What a geat idea!
Thank you! Making more this year but in simplified form without as many layers… should speed things up and enable several to be produced for an entire mansion effect
@@SeizetheDIY Oh how classically spooky
Nice work!
Thanks so much!
Looks fantastic 👍
Thanks 🤘
Great idea! Love it
Thanks Afa- much appreciated :)
I could see three of these lined up on a basement wall with no windows. Genius man, I loved this video!
Thanks a ton! Definitely- I’m working on wood versions to use for interiors. I have some small scale tests lasercut and if they workout I’ll offer full size kits for sale on the site.
@@SeizetheDIYI would totally buy off your website if you did that. I love this faux window
@SeizetheDIY I would buy off your website, if you did this!
Wow! Top Notch! Bravo!
Thanks so much!
DUDE FABULIOUS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW FANTASTIC JOB HERE ,🕰
Thaaaaaaank youuuuuuu! haha I appreciate it!
