Please see the links below for more information. I have chosen to leave this video content up for learning purposes only, but highly recommend considering other products when trying to achieve these same techniques. There are too many good product brands on the market to support a brand with these practices. I've included links to my most used options below

Brandy, I just wanted you to know that you saved the day - and my dining room chairs! Thank you for your advice. I painted the fabric on 6 DR chairs that were lavender and stained with red wine. I applied 3 coats of Drop Cloth and sanded in between coats; but the best advice ever, was using the best dang wax (rather than the spray). OMG! They are beautiful and soft. And due to Covid, I was able to let them cure for nearly 2 months (since I have no visitors). Thank you, you are the best!
Oh yay!!! I agree, the spray wax isn't as soft
Do they look painted ??
I'm glad you went with painting the fabric. Looks great, matches the blinds and the cabinets so well if I didn't know I would have thought it was already that color fabric! We lost our home 2 yrs ago and lived in our camper for 9 months. While I was thankful we had the camper I was so tired of seeing orange cabinets! The cabinets in our new home are the same color as in your RV. You guys done a great job and all the hard work paid off. Thanks for the video!
I've sat through 5 or 6 videos this afternoon, yours by a mile was the most fun!!!!
That is so sweet of you to say!
Looks fabulous!! I painted the back seat in my car. I have a Golden Retriever and she scratched the seat going to the vet. Leather of course. I painted it then waxed it. Looks and has held up fantastic.
Good to know!
I absolutely LOVE watching you & all your beautiful work! I really appreciate that you explain things so clearly. We're just in the beginning process of giving our 2010 RV a facelift. It's very dark & dated. We've painted the cupboards & hope to paint over the wallpaper. Any tips for that? Also one of the things I really hate are the ugly window valances with curved tails on either side that hold the accordian blinds. How did you remove your valances? Any special tools required?Where did you purchase your new blinds? They look so sleek. Thanks SO much!
Thanks for the great tutorial! Can you selectively paint on fabric (like a pattern), or do block printing with chalk paint?
Awesome, thanks for sharing!
Great remodeling!
Several tutorials recommend not using wax or topcoat if you want a softer finish (instead of leathery), and sanding the fabric with a fine grain pad to get the fabric feel even softer. They state that it still doesn’t come off on clothes and such…..I wonder what spraying with scotch guard would do after sanding the fabric soft.🤔
I did a piece for my son n his wife. Wow. I should’ve seen this first. I did fix it tho. I had to use my sander to smooth out the crusty feel. It took a lot of paint because I didn’t dilute it with water initially. It was a learning curve! I only started up cycling this year at 70! Love your videos. Good seeing your bairns n hearing hubby too but you’re a bonnie lass full of so much talent !!!
Love how you’ve sis the inside of your camper. That’s what what I doing now. I was wondering if you could tell me where you got your blinds. Thank you.
Is it possible to do a 2 toned blend on a sofa? Just sides?
I just let a gorgeous cheap dinning set gat away because I thought it would cost to much to reupholster the chairs! Dang! I am wondering if I do paint chairs if they can be steam cleaned after because my down syndrome son is very messy! Also, where do you get dixie belle paint from? It must be the best because so many youtubers are using it and why is chalk paint the new thing? One more thing I have hanging drapes and I suppose they would have to be un stapled from the pole and taken apart laid flat to get good adhesion then stapled back, they are sort of long and flowing on the end of a 6 ft slider and draped and stapled to the pole on the top part
Love to hear your chickens!❤️
They are my neighbors flock 😂
Would you still use the wax over painted faux leather?
The finished fabric looked fantastic but it wasn't clear what paint or wax you used ( possible at a Lowe's store ?)I have a very dark floral printed damask or linen sofa I would like to paint into as Brite a color as possible , I'm thinking to just to make sewn fabric cover for the cushions with a simple Velcro tabs closures
Can this work on a chair and what do I seal it with?
I like the cameraman asking the questions in these comments while you work, so we all hear the answers.
He is a huge help to me
I want to stencil- paint on fabric. Same process?
What is the name of the wax you are using? I can't read it on screen or recognize the name you are saying. Thank you and living your videos. In new to this and soaking in all your knowledge.

if you put wax on material you sit on will it be tacky on your legs or bum? how about if your RV get hot?
Great idea using scrub brush on textured fabrics
Hi Brandy! I know this video is from a while ago but I just got a camper and need to paint the trim around the dinette cushions, just like you did! I love the idea of using the paint and then wax over it, but when I click your link it doesn’t go to dixie bell it goes to wise owl! :( Could you please help me out by commenting below the exact type of paint and wax you used? It would be a big help! I just want my project to come out as good as yours did! Thank you:) have a great weekend!!
Hi! Did you end up painting your dinette coushins? I'm thinking of doing the same
Brandy, how will the waxed fabric hold up when the camper is in storage and the inside gets hot?
The wax cures, can periodically reapply if needed. Ours is stored outside and looks great, fabric and paint absorb it
I have a chair and ottoman that I'm thinking of painting for my daughter but she has small children. Will this hold up and will the batting get wet from the water and paint?
The batting will get wet, but dries fairly quickly, overnight usually. The wax over top makes it more easily cleanable, feels like leather when its done
Thank you
Did I miss what sort of paint
My sister is chalk painting her RV cushion, what is the best sealer for cushions? Wax?, Silicone and peerless mineral spirits? Thank you.
I like to seal in Annie sloan wax
Thanks Brandy! My Dixie Belle Paint arrived yesterday and after watching your video I'm ready to refresh two dining room chairs! I may have to order more wax however. Thanks Shawn or Sean...I don't know are there other spellings?!
You'll be surprised, a 4 oz of wax goes a long way
Ok thank you!
Oh, so I got 8 chairs full of velvet 😂 I'll be expert in painting velvet after they are ready 😂 thanks a lot my dear Brandy.
If you are trying to go from a fabric that is light gold to white, could you paint the fabric with primer first to make sure you don't get gold bleed through??
Yes, you can use boss on fabric
@@BrushedbyBrandy Thanks Brandy . Now if I can just work up the nerve to try by first project! And should I dilute the Boss primer as well as the paint to keep the fabric from getting crunchy?
Can you use Dixie Belle Transfers or Decoupage paper on fabric?
They would be purely decorative on fabric. They will apply, but will not hold up to washing or water, limited use would be best
I have a chair that I want to do. It’s French. Do I paint the wood first or the fabric?
I would do the fabric first, its messier to paint, involves a lot of water
@@BrushedbyBrandy thank you. You are an inspiration.
I got my permission slip signed so I can go on the field trip❤❤❤❤
I don't understand wouldn't the wax deter , repel the color ??oh okay wax after ?
Hi from Newfoundland
It took me a few minutes to figure out it was your rooster not mine 😂
Haha. Yes, that's Carl, he lives next door
Oh and I’m in Scotland by the way.... 😬
Get a drill attachment that is a nylon brush. Save your arm.
1 coat looks a bit like embossed leather.
What exact paint? Is it chalk or what?
Dixie belle is a water based chalk mineral paint
dixiebellepaint.com/?aff=23
@@BrushedbyBrandy Wow! Thanks for the quick response🥰 Also… I’ve seen other tutorials where they’re using fabric softener mixed with their paint. Is that something I should consider doing as well?
@@valerieanderson8023 I've not tried it with fabric softener, just the wax. Can do a test spot and try it.
How much do you resale the furniture you paint?
Price varies by size and complexity of finishes
How can I contact you. Do you have a email
Can you paint actual leather??
Yep!
Too many cameraman comments/jokes...saying lovingly...love more of br
agreeing respectfully
agreeing respectfully
Ha! Overwhelmingly disagree. I was thinking throughout what a perfect balance Shawn's subtle hilarity brings to these tutorials. You guys are a great team in so many ways. Respectfully, since that's how we roll. 😘🤣🥸
I totally agree with you. The video is called "Everything to know about painting fabric", not Sean's stand up comedy.
"Stripping with Sean", seriously??! 🤦♀️
I love it. Makes it better than any other UA-camr!
Can he shhhh?
Exactly! OMG. I want to know what Brandy has to say, but I'm becoming increasingly annoyed...with the interruptions and jokes 🤦♀️
You need a microphone.
It looks interesting but I promised myself NOT TO WATCH any videos that keep advertising brand products. Better use of time watching people who are producing fantastic stuff without advertising. Thank you enough talking.
I no longer use or recommend this brand of products, but by working with brands, I'm able to offer my content and tutorials for free to the average viewer. The other option would be charging users for the tutorials. I prefer the little guts get access to the info and the brands that profit be the ones paying for it. As a business, there has to be income potential or none of this info would be available at all.
To much bla bla bla
Then don’t watch.
@@kathyl5610 but you have to watch it to form an opinion! Unless only complements are allowed in this COMMENTS section...
I happen to 100% agree with the OP.
I'm trying to watch because Brandy is very talented and I really want her knowledge, as fabric painting is not a subject that pops up a lot (and I trust her expertise).
But the husband's interjections/jokes/interruptions are getting too much. Cameraman is not supposed to be the focus of the show.🤦♀️
I found it soooo distracting, and it got worse as I watched, when Brandy is trying to finish the (important) sentence and the hubby keeps interrupting with (not so important) comments. I wish next time he would just stick to reading questions from commenters.
Sorry if my comment offends anyone 🤦♀️
