You always come up with great ideas when you hit a roadblock! I also love the primitive look of aging items. Also get great ideas from your projects. Paula
I'm only 3 min and 30 secs into the video, but I want to make a suggestion...after you paint objects such as this with black chalk paint and distress it, go over it with antiquing wax. You wouldn't believe how it makes the black look rich and so much more beautiful.
I had a friend make this for me from her cricut machine. If you don't have a cricut, maybe print one off the internet and cut it out. I have a larger stencil in my Etsy shop, but I think it would be too big for towels. www.etsy.com/shop/Pipberriesandburlap
Is there any way to buy the Blackbird stencil? I would love to make some napkins with the bird for my sister. We have a thing for blackbirds. I just love them. ❤❤❤

I love it all but I want that crow stencil also
I will check and see if my friend is set up to make a few. They just moved and unpacking. I am glad you like it. 😊
That black crow on the napkin is so simple but the look, especially on that color napkin, is fantastic... Love it...
It does pop really well. Something about the burlap color and black is great together. I'm glad you like them.
I just realized you have a very pleasant voice. i love the way you present things, calm and not overhyped.
Thanks so much! I am glad you are enjoying my videos.💞
I really like the chicken wire around the basket
Thank you 😊

I have done that, but I’m out of wax right now. I will have to replenish my supply next week. 😀

Bummer on the lamp shades. I've never seen any you had to put together like that. Love the crow napkins!
I hadn't either and was intimidated at first. But they are really easy to put together as you can see. Very nice quality too.
Great projects. Where could one buy the crow stencil?
I had a friend make this for me from her cricut machine. If you don't have a cricut, maybe print one off the internet and cut it out. I have a larger stencil in my Etsy shop, but I think it would be too big for towels. www.etsy.com/shop/Pipberriesandburlap
What type and brand & paint did u use for the napkins?
Is there any way to buy the Blackbird stencil? I would love to make some napkins with the bird for my sister. We have a thing for blackbirds. I just love them. ❤❤❤
I will check. My friend who makes them has been moving and not sure they are set up yet. I will check with them. I am glad you love them.
Did you try 100% pure acetone to remove the ink off of the bottles, it generally works for me on everything!
I tried acetone, but not sure it was 100%. I will have to take a look and get some for future projects. 😊
Thrift store prices are beyond ridiculous anymore. Would rather go to antique store.
I agree. There can be good items to be had still though. But I am finding that I buy less and less every time I go due to prices.
