I love the thought of doing this with wrapping paper, which comes in hundreds of thousands of possible patterns, without even having to do the shred & wrinkle step. Can't wait to try it! Thanks for this awesome video!
As someone who's just getting into van dwelling and has zero power tool access, this is a godsend. Finally, those years of art school fiddling with box cutters and X-Acto knives has some relevance! Thanks a ton to both of you!
I'm glad that you asked for step by step instructions. Once the bags dry, they're really the same as wood and can be finished in all the same ways as wood. I like that each coat of different materials add strength to to cabinets.
Classic decoupage technique. Been around for thousands of years and I'm loving seeing it's application used here. My work consists of a lot of decoupage and to see it here is great!
Even for making a custom console between the seats, this would be a great project. putting in cup holders and everything.
What an excellent way of making cabinets with material that is dependable and thank you for showing this to us especially for those who are on a budget that we can Not pay for wood panel boards and don’t want to add weight to our van. Again a huge Thank you!
Love this DIY for its light weight properties. Excellent choice for decreasing weight of the vehicle and improving fuel economy. Great stuff! Love the map version! Nice work guys and gal! Thanks.
You just solve my biggest concern in building my van. Buying power tools for a one time use only...
Very informative . I was not going to bother with upper cabinets but now I will have a go at this .
Another great video !! We appreciate all you do for us, you are an awesome positive example of our people, the "vandwellers"
This is a neat idea. I love the catching of the sponge brush. They're among my favorite tools. I'm sharing this with my husband. We're building out a van camper and lightweight shelves like these may be useful. I love the finish.
great ideas guys I'm going to try it out also love the mirror behind you and your helper running around in her pj's and fuzzy house shoes next time turn up the heat so that she doesn't get so cold lol
You could skim coat the screened panels with various types of body filler, final sand prep, prime and finish with auto-body paint or spray bombs. Including factory matching interior colors or even a rhino lining type finish which would hide imperfections. Long N Strong (filler type) would even give it more strength, though it would also add weight over finishing fillers. Alternately you could cover it with vinyl, though that wouldn't add any appreciable strength like the papier Mâché does and would likely be heavier. Great video!
+Kevin Mullett great ideas, thanks for your input!
But if you added vinyl over the fiberglass screen, that would just add to the tensile strength
Some great information. I remember following the foame group on the teardrop forum. My father made a canoe similar to this technique.
You are amazing. Thanks for sharing this technique. I would love to see that van completed and would so love to see the finished version. Thank you once again. So green.
Excellent job. We love your videos from here in Iran 🇮🇷. Lots of love and respect from here in Iran 🇮🇷
Wow awesome, thank you
Also wondering how the hanging cabinets like the ones on the raised roof in the van tour are secured.
Very nice! I love how imaginative people can be. I myself have always thought of wood as the go to material but now this changes my thinking on the whole process. Thanks for bringing this to us and nice job with the video!
-Jon
love there look of the paper bag method! Thanks for sharing!
There is a term for what you are doing; taking bits of paper, soaking them in a glue solution, and applying them to a surface. It is called Papier Mâché. Can do lots of cool stuff with this technique. Lots of UA-cam tutorials as well.
I know you showed the finished product in the first video, but it would have been cool to see it here again...thanks for doing this..can't wait to see what you do with this new skill set....
So glad I John shared shared his knowledge with us.
I'm absolutely losing it over this. This is incredible and I can't wait til payday to go buy test/experiment supplies!
Love your videos man, keep it up!
wow great video very practical and helpful. your life is a example that needs no words.
Super Cool! on the cabinets. Still trying to follow the fridge blog. I Need to go thru it multiple times for it to stick. That's on me not you. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas. You rock!
I just can't stop thinking about these 2 videos! You know, I have been combing the web and UA-cam, and I don't think there is anything out there that talks about this inspired way of building. And so, I have lots of questions, eg, how are the cabinets mounted to the walls (or, secured to the floors) in the van? I know that anything less than 3/4 inch plywood runs the risk of warping; what did he do to those luan cabinet doors? How did he inset the wood for hinges? (Gawd, you better monetize this, quick, lolol). And finally, I sure would like more details on the gym mat/luan floor in the van.
To 1linnell: No matter how long you spend combing the web, you are not going to be able to untangle it.
Forget urethane use 2 part self leveling clear epoxy for a much more durable finish.
You should try dry bamboo leaves
"Couldn't you just dip it in?" Exactly what I said right as you were saying it lol
Foam cabinets, that sounds pretty interesting.
Hello Sir, I need more of this technique, oh ya I am hooked now, thanks so much to you and your guest.
When I did the paper bag project I wrinkled the paper and put into a bucket of water to tamp before dipping in glue mixture. I use everything waterbased
I also seen Pipi Peterson do the same, its really cool.. Great vid bro!!
Very creative and it looks kinda easy. I could do that!
Albert Byrd
It is super easy! Anyone could do it. I feel as though the time is well spent for the uniqueness of this look. Glue can dry easily in a day especially if left outside. It takes longer to wait for stain to dry between coats then anything especially if you live in an area with high humidity and are living in the van while working on it.
I like very light colors. I think I'll do a test with chalk paint instead of stain.
Could you also just simply paint the final board white with a low VOC paint and leave it at that?
how do you secure the cabinets to the van wall?
nice work you could spray that textured spray to make it look like stone
I love these build methods videos!
Why aren't you on television??? You are a very interesting, professional presenter. Really enjoy your vid's.
+TheCaveman1961 thank you! I may end up there.
Looks great but fire risk ? BOOM!
I like this technique, alot.
It's like arts and crafts for grown ups.. who aren't true grown ups because we are free and live in our vans sometimes haha
It would have been nice to see a close-up of the finished panel at the various points.
hey what about finishing it with plywood 1/8" thick. actual thickness is .106 inch so its really thin. you avoid all the work of having to paper bag it and you might even gain the positives of full wood cabinets for the finish and screw capabilities
You could use that plywood instead of any screen or other tensile layer on the outside for the structure which serves 2 purposes.
I wonder if putting stain in the glue/water would save a step of staining? Might be a way to go.
Excellent. Thank you!!!!
I wonder what the strength would be using Tyvek to cover it before putting the newspaper or other covering on it?
AWSOM you just solved all my questions. Thanks.
We want more vlogs
I understand using this in a van but what about pop-up campers and trailers?
Thanks so much! Terrific!
What's the extent of how these boards should be used? would you use it for any framing? Would you make a seat from it?
Have you tried just using whole sheets over the foam instead of tearing it into pieces?
Could you cover with burlap or denim fabric?
how is the water resistance after finished? Would you use this for your counter tops/ bathroom walls?
Nice I love the idea💡
PLS make more clear what kind of foam is used for sides AND top
About how much weight do you think an entire structure can bear? And a single shelf?
Hey Jed I know this video is a bit older but I was wondering if you ever tried to finish these with a nice wood veneer? I can imagine it would look pretty sharp and clean if you attempt it although maybe not be as cheap. Let me know your thoughts if you see this and thanks for your videos man!
Graver, that's an excellent idea! Little bit more on the cost but you'd have the wood finish with the super lightweight cabinet.
Wish i could find someone showing how to put drawers in a foam cabinet.
How does he attach the cabinets to the van?
What about dipping the paper in the glue then crumpling it before smoothing it on the surface? It’ll probably be quicker than this method.
Really good video.
Like to see a side by side of all different Finnish on cabinets so I can make up my mind
K
Is this hard enough to be used as flooring in a house like the laminate flooring?
How do you attach to the walls or floor. Do you have to integrate more wood pieces to secure to the van?
+Created From Above yes
Hmmmmm, could you put the Minwax oil based stain (hmmm, oil and water?) AND the polyurethane in the glue/water and it becomes a one-step dealio ?
Old comic books!
oh no what's next macaroni art..? just kidding.this just reminds me of when I was a child and you would take glass bottles cover them in torn bits of masking tape,stain them with brown shoe polish ,and seal it with modge-podge and present them to our parents as candle holders in craft class lol.way to bring it to the next level.i have seen some real high-end faux finishes done this way with different designer papers you can find at scrap booking places or it was even popular a long while back to use discarded wall paper found in the trash at wallpaper stores,nowadays wallpaper isnt that popular tho....thanks good vid
I was actually thinking about wallpaper as a finish for these. The right wallpaper would look pretty good imo.
Creativity! Yes! :-)
Nice
Way to go
But how do you fasten things like hinges, etc. to the foam???
You can either inlay wood or metal, or use a wood or metal frame
Hello, there are no links to the finished vans !
+FreeBird thanks, there are now
Nice one, thanks.
use comic books?
You Definitely could!
cool man!
where is part 1?
where is the link to the map cabinets? maybe I am missing it
+Mari Shields they will be in the next tour vid coming soon
Are you worried about V.O.Cs with this technique?
They should start a UA-cam channel
Did that board have the screen already in or was the paper the stiffener?
It had the screen already, the paper was for looks
About Van Life,
Thanks I was going to ask the same thing.
light is the way to go...right!? lol!!!
There's a great article that explains the process in much more detail, but unfortunately every single picture link is broken. intothemystery13.com/brown-paper-bag-technique-amazing-finishes/
The cheapest stain is coffee.
Is the woman in the background your Australian girlfriend? Wasn't she visiting in November ? :)
