The use of the lace curtain for the wallpaper print is genius. The finished wall panel, with your expert faux finishing, is fantastic. Thanks for the tips & tricks.
The lace curtain trick is one of those things that makes you go, "Now why didn't *I* think of that??" And that wood grain finished panel is just :::chef's kiss:::
It was a fun one, for sure. Very exciting to pull the curtain panel off considering we filmed the test run and that’s what ended up in the final video.
Thank you for this awesome trick! Did some work on the house’s front porch and turned out pretty good! This is yet an other example that your videos are clear, detailed and EZ to replicate at home!!! Your awesome !
Thanks for watching! I knew that haunters would never go back to individual stenciling after I saw this technique used for refinishing furniture. So I had to make a video about it.
Yet another great tutorial. Thanks for keeping it straight to the point and crystal clear. Also, great music choice. Fun listening while we watch you work.
Yet another great tutorial. Always imaginative and creative. Love the face reveal these past few videos, though not sure it was done before. This is a rare occasion the voice matches what the person might look like. Can’t wait to see your next video
Thank you! These videos are a great way to connect with my haunt community, so I figured I'd step out from behind the camera so you guys could put a face to the voice.
Late comment, but this looks like the wall paneling in the Walt Disneyworld Haunted Mansion loading area, very nice! Just missing the door frame skulls on the wood panelling, lol
Your tutorials are the best, right to the project and the point. Thanks for sharing all your know how with others! Also, that's an awesome hat. Where did you get it?
Woah! I didn't see the effect of the final product coming. The quality is good enough for actual use in the house. Obviously the style would be way too creepy, but nice job!
I’ve been watching your videos and I got to say this one really takes the cake what an amazing idea and I love how you made that Wood. all in all breathtaking DIY.
Wow, great tutorial - I am ready to go thrift store hunting for lace curtains and man, I need to get my hands on that wood grain tool - thanks for posting!
Excellent! Great tip with the lace. I love me the critter gun. Like you mentioned, nice and easy to CLEAN !! Any idea how to make the critter gun produce a spatter?
@@VanOaksProps Sorry, I WANT to make it spatter. Any idea how to make it do so. As set up, it sprays beautifully. I want to make it spray poorly. Speckles as it were.
Hmm... I can't say that I do.I know it kind of chokes itself if the paint is too thick. Maybe that's something to play with? Or you can get a Harbor Freight HVLP gun like this one: www.harborfreight.com/professional-automotive-hvlp-spray-gun-kit-94572.html It was nothing but spatter for me.
@@VanOaksProps HA! Harbor Freight didn't make a high quality tool? What!? They are getting better though, in some areas. Anyway, I have some ideas to make a critter gun spatter, I just need the time to mess with it.
Wow. Wow. Just... wow. I used lace and spray paint long ago to create a vase for my mom, but this is actually way beyond my expectations for a damask type of wallpaper. Color choices- so good. Wood grain - sooo good! Really impressed, amazed and blown away in fact! How long did the whole thing take? Including dry time?
Thanks, Kerri! The wallpaper part was so more than 20 minutes. It's been over 100° in Los Angeles, so the dry time is almost instant. The wood graining was the longer part, but even that can be done relatively quickly. So I'd say no more than 45 minutes for the full panel.
That’s quick work! Especially when doing multiple panels at a time, you could do an assembly line style and knock a bunch out in an afternoon! In Florida, our humidity is somewhat painful for dry-time but the past week, it’s been a tad lower. Yesterday, around 6:30pm I connected all my power cords and put 2 lights up, and I was soaked in sweat. 😁 I have to do things in short shifts and take AC breaks!
It takes a little practice, but it's a pretty forgiving technique. Just try to make the rocking motion a little different every time so that the grain looks different.
I would add more "dirt" to the bottom corners of the panels..I live in an old house and I can never really clean the dirt out of those damm corners!!... lol... I LOVED THE OLD WALLPAPER TECHNIQUE!!... Overall.. Ur work is Awesome man!! Thnx for sharing..✌️❤️😎👍👍🎃
Very nice! How many times can you use the cloth stencil before it is too clogged to show the pattern? Can you wash it quickly and get the paint out, or is a one and done?
It depends on your lace panel. Because it’s such a light application you can paint quite a few without any noticeable difference. You could definitely rinse it out, assuming your lace can withstand it.
Wallpaper can be a lot of work, measuring cutting, gluing, dry time, etc. It may even take the same amount of time but, you may have to spend additional time tweaking it to get the desired effect. With the method used above, you get the desired look and effect, with complete control the first time. I personally like the way it is done here and the effect it has.
This faux finishing glaze: is it more of a hardware store item or a craft store item? Can you disclose the brand you used? I'm not familiar with this stuff, and I see a few different options online.
Great question! The main difference between glaze and paint is that glaze is not really meant to altogether change the appearance of whatever you're applying it to. Paint has pigment and glaze does not. Additionally, when you add paint to glaze it extends the working time, makes the paint you've mixed into it a bit transparent, and makes it easier to blend into other colors. There's some great information about faux finishing glaze here: muralsandfauxpainting.com/faux-painting-glazes.html
One could have stretched/spayed the curtain first and then used some adhesive on the back or the panel it went on to put it on permanently. Indeed one might even dye it as well plus the lace would add a depth to the wall and with a bit of care you could also color in parts of its pattern to make it pop even more. Once adhered you could seal it with gloss/matte lacquer of ones choosing and if it can't reuse it as a stencil you might as well glue it down to get a better effect..☠
Ha! I guess some people like to cover the standard plastic liners with something a bit more decorative, but they're still classified as shower curtain liners. I don't make the rules, I just figure out how to bend them to my will.
The use of the lace curtain for the wallpaper print is genius. The finished wall panel, with your expert faux finishing, is fantastic. Thanks for the tips & tricks.
Thank you! It’s a pretty forgiving technique, especially for haunt application.
The wood grain technique was FANTASTIC! Turned out way better than expected.
A lace table cloth as a stencil is pure brilliance.
The results are awesome, for sure.
This is the best Halloween related tutorial I have seen in a while. Amazing.
Thanks so much!!
yeah using the lace curtain is awesome...what a great idea. Wood grain tool is also amazing. I can watch these vids all night
Glad you like them!
That’s beautiful; I want my walls in my house to look like this. 😊
The lace curtain trick is one of those things that makes you go, "Now why didn't *I* think of that??" And that wood grain finished panel is just :::chef's kiss:::
What a wall panel! Thanks for showing the full process of wood graining, I’ll need to get that tool ASAP!
It was a fun one, for sure. Very exciting to pull the curtain panel off considering we filmed the test run and that’s what ended up in the final video.
This technique was fantastic.
Wow, the lace worked like a champ! Love it
Yep! It was so satisfying to remove the lace and see the pattern
That wood grain tool is amazing!!!!!
It’s very handy and easy to use.
Thank you for this awesome trick! Did some work on the house’s front porch and turned out pretty good!
This is yet an other example that your videos are clear, detailed and EZ to replicate at home!!!
Your awesome !
That is awesome! Glad it was useful.
That lace idea is Brilliant!!
Right?! I can't believe I hadn't heard of it before. Such a great result with minimal effort.
As a photographer I am gonna try this to create a backdrop for a future photo shoot. Thanks for making this video and sharing this knowledge.
Great stuff! What a unique method. That wood grain is fantastic. Looking forward to more.
Thanks for watching!
This has to be one of the most simplistic ways to get this effect. Great job!
Glad you like it!
The prop master does it again!
Ahh, thanks buddy!
Another great tutorial! For any haunter who has tried stenciling repeat patterns, this is a welcomed replacement tool to add to their repertoire
Thanks for watching! I knew that haunters would never go back to individual stenciling after I saw this technique used for refinishing furniture. So I had to make a video about it.
Yet another great tutorial. Thanks for keeping it straight to the point and crystal clear. Also, great music choice. Fun listening while we watch you work.
Thanks, Jim! Glad you enjoyed it.
Good job Derek! Great idea with the lace!
Thanks!!
That's such a simple but clever idea and it looks so effective
Cool how the unevenness in the prayed paint really adds to the look of the wallpaper.
Yeah, it was an unexpected outcome that I think made it look even better. It reads really well in person.
Fantastic technique. Thank you for sharing this demo!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
Great video. I first learned about lace stencils when my dad did the roof of his 1950 Mercury back in 1984-85.
That's awesome!
I love all your props and the attentionto detail certainly makes it more authentic
That came out fantastic! Really dig your videos. Great stuff!
Thanks for watching!

Thanks again for a GREAT lesson. Will be putting this to use for our haunt in 2021.
Glad it was helpful!
Love this technique!
I use push pins to secure the lace...
You can do this vertical after the walls are up too...
Great tips, Greg!
Looks fantastic and so real, awesome work 👏🖤🎃💀
That looks amazing!! Too fun! Thank you so much!
My pleasure!
Love that technique with the lace very cool. Thanks for sharing
It's a good one. So satisfying to see the reveal. Thanks for watching, Steve!
Love this! Too cool.
Wow! I've never seen that lace wallpaper technique. How creative you rock!
Thanks so much!
Great technique!! Very realistic I have done similar using real wallpaper and dust aging the wallpaper with the sprayer.great job enjoy your work!!
Awesome! Thank you!
As usual, a great tutorial. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
WOW. So good. Really makes me miss our haunt! Thanks for another great tutorial, Derek!
This was a really satisfying one. Almost made us want to build a walk through...but then we came to our senses. LOL
Super nice 👍
Thanks!
You are amazing!! I’ve been wanting to do this for years! Now I know what to do. Thanks
Awesome! Good luck.
Fantastic!!! Really ingenious 😯🤯

Thanks buddy!
Excellent! Great tip with the lace. I love me the critter gun. Like you mentioned, nice and easy to CLEAN !! Any idea how to make the critter gun produce a spatter?
I don't have that issue with mine. What PSI are you running it at? How thin is your paint?

@@KerriGilpin For sure. I can't even imagine what it's like to build a haunt in Florida. Just being at WDW for an afternoon was draining.
This was great!
Thanks!
Great job thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Since you aren't putting up your display this year are you using the next 391 days to do something HUGE next year? As always...great stuff!
Nothing huge, but definitely thinking about ways to make the display better.
That is SO freaking awesome! I've never seem the woodgrain tool before! Do you have any tips on how to use it?!
It takes a little practice, but it's a pretty forgiving technique. Just try to make the rocking motion a little different every time so that the grain looks different.
@@VanOaksProps thanks! Love all you're work! Keep it up man! ❤

Thanks for checking it out
@@VanOaksProps For sure!

Sick! Great work! Can you please list what glaze you use? Thanks.
Thanks! I used Martha Stewart faux finishing glaze, but any brand of faux finishing glaze will work.
Are you able to reuse the same stencil over again or is a new one needed for each panel?
It can be reused.
I love this idea!
Do you find the lace curtain reusable for additional panels?
Yes. Plus, you can wash them out if they need it.
✨🧡✨ LOVE IT ✨🧡✨
This ^ is the coolest f**king thing! I want to do this!
Looks really good - but wouldn't cheap wallpaper be a bit easier and probably just as cheap? Maybe it's harder to get in the US
Depends. The full curtain was only $25 USD from Amazon but you might be able to get one at a second-hand store for a few dollars.
Wallpaper can be a lot of work, measuring cutting, gluing, dry time, etc. It may even take the same amount of time but, you may have to spend additional time tweaking it to get the desired effect.
With the method used above, you get the desired look and effect, with complete control the first time.
I personally like the way it is done here and the effect it has.
@@VanOaksProps I assume you can wash and reuse the curtain?
@@Melissa-xe6er Oh, the effect is brilliant. Undoubtedly. :)
As fine as the paint layer, I don’t think you’d even need to wash it, after drying multiple coats it may not fully wash out anyway.
You mentioned this was for a haunted house. Are you a home haunted or do you own/ work for a pro haunt?
Just a home haunter, but we only do a display.
What material did you use to make the wainscoting? Foam? Cardboard?
1/4” underlayment.
What type of plywood are you using?
1/8” Underlayment.
This faux finishing glaze: is it more of a hardware store item or a craft store item? Can you disclose the brand you used? I'm not familiar with this stuff, and I see a few different options online.
You can find it with the wood stains at most Home Depot’s or with the acrylic paints at craft stores. I’m using one from Martha Stewart
It looks like they don’t sell what I used anymore, but this is a similar product: amzn.to/3mrJQkH
@@VanOaksProps I thought I said thanks, but it looks like I didn't send it! So, better late than never. Thank you!!

@@VanOaksProps thank you
Is the panel a sheet of drywall?
Nope, it's plywood. This would work on any flat material though.
I want to do this in my house. Lol. My wife would never allow it though.
Victorian wallpaper is coming back into popularity...
🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡

True, but if you were doing a room it would get expensive fast. Thankfully you can reuse it.
In which parallel universe are shower curtains made of lace? xD
Ha! I guess some people like to cover the standard plastic liners with something a bit more decorative, but they're still classified as shower curtain liners. I don't make the rules, I just figure out how to bend them to my will.
Where did you get that hat ????
It’s a new era fitted cap with a patch from CreepyCo
@@VanOaksProps they don't have it on there page
@@dsh5564 I've had it for a few years. They may not sell it anymore.
Second!
I love seeing that people are so excited for new videos!
@@VanOaksProps I appreciate you taking the time to make these quality tutorials. Please keep them coming.
@@LuisRRodas Thanks and I plan on it. Happy haunting!
FIRST
Thanks for being so early to the video!
I love your videos, however, you always leave out major details. Show us how you created the wall panel itself.
Thanks. That was actually just a sheet of plywood with a few pieces of wood at the bottom. So not much to actually show.
@@VanOaksProps thank you. Even just mentioning that in the video helps.
very good. victorian wall panel
