Good tests... Fyi, argan oil will go rancid [i.e. smell foul] over time because it is plant based... Baby oil = mineral oil + fragrance. I will use a cheap 'chip/paint' brush to apply MINERAL oil (I have on hand).
This was a very interesting and well done. . . experiment? Before I jump wholeheartedly into oiling papers, have you tried stacking your argan oiled paper with untreated papers and seeing if the oil transfers? I am very curious about this. Thanks.
Does the oil you used turn rancid? I saw on another channel that cooking oil turned rancid. So idk if it’s the same principal with these products. Thanks!
Ok ... I got some Argan oil. It works FANTASTIC. And mineral oil is SUPER. I found out that if you put the oil on the reverse of something you've printed, especially using an inkjet printer, you can turn it into a vellum sheet.
Veg/argan oil DOES work - but goes rancid/smells foul after time....Mineral oil is better for DIY vellum - OR using candle wax/paraffin method - which is slow and cumbersome. (see YT video).
Hello, just a comment, I've been watching several videos, on oils as well, it's seems most of these first experiments failed, only becuz they tried to let dry by itself, then most of them now finished up by using paper towels, which dries , plus soaks up any extra oil, u may want to try laying paper towels down first, and last after each completion of soaking with oil. Thanx
Me too!!! And I reallly wanted printed vellum paper. What a game changer for paper crafting. I am so excited to be able to turn beautiful scrapbook paper pages into vellum! 🤩
I love to make faux vellum using acrylic varnishes. I use spray varnish on napkins and use brush on varnishes with paper. My favorite being tea dyed tracing paper. It turns out perfectly translucent and seals the paper to a much stronger texture as well. I also prefer argan oil over baby oil. Most people don't have it on hand but it soaks into skin and paper very well. Great video!

Actually vit E in oils help you to tan quicker and healthier. Unless you're not used to it and then oil will turn you into red and sunburnt. Aloe vera for that though. Kinda have to build up the sun contact hours in summer, or use oil everyday even in winter. People used oils and butter before sunscreen. Also Aloe vera. I prefer it over sunscreen because as an Asian I need more sunshine (vit.d) in the Netherlands so I love using tanning oils. With sunscreen I would lack in vit. D more. And without tan I look sick in winters 🤣 and without vit D have depression 😅. I love the technics. I prefer buying vellum because of the oily feeling. But I can see myself using this technic on paterned paper and already printed on paper.
I remember doing this when i was 7 y/o. I accidentally poured too much oil on the paper and it was a nightmare to clean it all up before my mother got back lol. But the oil i used was my mother's hair oil which had a strong smell so yeah.... I did get an earfull😂
😅😂🤣 hahahaha it was probably argan oil. I use it in my hair!!!! It makes it silky and shiny. How are you and your family doing? How is your schooling in the middle of all these unknowns?
@@VanessaVendetti 😂 it was actually coconut oil. Parachute coconut hair oil. Our local and most favoured brand. Anyways... I'm in semester break currently. But they announced that classes will be online for the rest of the year😔 which...is safe in a way but fashion design is not a subject you study with your lecturer's face on screen😫 what a horrible year. How are you doing? And the rest of the family? I hope everyone is safe and healthy 🤗
Thankyou so much for this tip ma'am .. i tried using hair serum and it showed great result while applying but as it started drying, it looked blotchy again and paper started showing up. How do i fix it??

Good tests...

Baby oil = mineral oil + fragrance.

Just use plain old mineral oil, that’s what baby oil is, and you don’t need the added fragrance. It’s cheaper too. 😉
Oil cook oil is good.too
Love, Love, Love this Vanessa TYFS... Vellum can get very expensive for design ones.... So excited to try this!! :-)
Right!!? It can get so pricey and the prints are limited. I am so excited 😁
Excited to see what you create with your printed vellum :-)
Hi! Can we print with thede for certificates?
Don’t trust The Logan UA-cam channel. It’s one of those scammers channels.
Thank you Michaels for the heads up, I appreciate you looking out for me.
ClassyCrafting&Parcels You’re welcome. I’m always looking for for my UA-cam friends.
That is so kind of you ☺️

I love that your daughter bonds with you by crafting along, it’s sooo cute!

Okay. I've never heard of 'vallium paper' until today & I'm super intrigued... is this regular printer paper?

Have you tried Fractionated Coconut Oil? Wondering if that would work???
Im so excited about this idea! I love vellum and to be able to make my own!!! FANTASTIC! Thank you for sharing this Vanessa! Have a beautiful day! 😊❤🌻
Me too!!! And I reallly wanted printed vellum paper. What a game changer for paper crafting. I am so excited to be able to turn beautiful scrapbook paper pages into vellum! 🤩
I was thinking coconut oil, it would probably act the same as argan oil?
I have always just used cooking oil(veggie or olive) It will dry without a greasy feel
Thank you so much for this “tip”, what a fantastic hack! 😄
You’re very welcome. I hope it helps Linda 😊
I was just about to purchase some vellum paper & your hack came up 😃! Maybe I’ll purchase Aragon Oil instead 😉! Thanks for sharing ! 💚🌹
Try vegetable oil!! I just tested it and it works magically!
I was about to do the vellum purchase too

Mix your Hawaiian troops with the oil for the smell
What can I make with this paper?

Oooh, love the idea of making patterned vellum! Thanks for running these tests and sharing your process and results.
I am most excited about that!! And I just tested vegetable oil and it works!!!

Great super interesting project! Can you inkjet print on these papers? Thank you! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

i think I heard you live in Canada could tell me where you find the Argan oil.Love this idea and Thank you for sharing,
can i use cocunut oil
Interesting
I wonder if coconut oil or Tim Holtz distress glaze would work?
I love the tanning oil smell, too! And, if you did go outside & layout, that’s ok!
Thanks for making this video....I can't wait to give this a try.
i love vellum.its way too good to make one on ur own as i m so so so into custom made things
The copy paper with the argon oil would be great to stamp on.
Who knew? Tfs
And I have some of that oil!!!
Loving This Vellum Tutorial! 🤩🤩🤩
I heat dry my papers
Ohhhh to create a vellum effect? Or after you oil them up?
Can you use stamps on it?
You really need an asmr channel 😍
Very 😎 cool
Very interesting TYS
Yay...you recorded your project...what a cool project.. thank you! ❤❤❤
Awww so glad you enjoyed it Maria 🤗
Really cool 👍
This was so interesting. Thanks for trying so many varieties.
I hope it helps. I looooove the effect of the argan oil on the paper - it is just simply beautiful in real life!
That was cool👍👍now you must show us what you do with it😁🐝
Ok 😁
What is " a while"? It would be better if you timed the process. Thanks for sharing.
Why would it matter if you used it to tan. There is nothing wrong with doing that. Sorry that just caught my attention, tfs
What about vegetable oil?
