Awesome video that is detailed and shows step by step directions very clearly explained. It was so helpful! I have bookmarked it for future use. Thank you for a great how-to video!
Thanks
Music is too loud and distracting. It doesn't match the theme of what's going on.
What are your measurements for the wood and lettering please.
Great info but the music needs to be off when you are talking. I couldn't finish the video. Very loud.
Music is way too loud.
Would be great without the music. You seem to be a wonderful teacher.
Can’t even watch til the end with that horrendously loud distracting annoying music. And I noticed you did not address any comments pertaining to the music...boooooo!!!
The music!!! You have a very informative video, but the music is too distracting.
Sarah, I want to thank you so much for the tip on using basting adhesive 💕
Can you show a video how you printed the stencil itself? Like how you made the home and welcome portion and how you cut it.
I am planning a video on how to cut a stencil using a Silhouette, I'll be sure to link it in this video description when it's ready. Thanks.
Hi Sarah,
Such a great video, thanks for sharing. What font did you use for the continuous joined font? LOVE IT! ( Home ) Thank You ~ Amanda
Sorry about the unnecessary comments about the music. I didn't even notice it because your instructions are straight to the point; no additional words or jitter later. Informative and easy-to-follow instructions. Thank you so much.
I appreciate your comment, thank you so much!
It's very difficult to hear you due to the totally unnecessary background music. Thumbs down.
Hi Sarah ,Thank you for the project. I liked your video, very specific and clear to understand. I subscribed. Like the other comments, the music is a little laud but is manageable.
Thanks Adriana, the music is what it is I can't change it now but have toned it down on new videos. Thanks for watching.
Do you peel off the stencil when the paint is wet? Slightly dry?
Always peel when it's wet.
This video was very helpful, thank you! The music made it difficult at times to hear you.
How do you remove the spray from the stencil if you are re-using it?
Wash it with soap and water and lay or hang it to try. The spary is water based so it cleans up nicely.
Love this and the detail, thank you. The background music was a bit loud..
Shame about the background music. I couldn't watch the video.
I wanted to watch but the music was too much
background music is too distracting
Maybe try a calmer music. It should be quieter than your voice.I feel like I'm trying to figure out what to listen to.
hi dont want to be a kiljoy but at 9:48 you can see lots of bleeding on the white lettering.the reason for this is the sponge brush.use a good quality medium bristle brush for great results.
I would like to hear your voice and not so much music. I wear hearing aids and the music was so loud. it was distracting.
Hello! Does the basting spray work on wood painted with latex paint?
Yes it does!
@@SarahVanderkooy Thank you so much!
I HATE that music, it is distracting. PLEASE REMOVE IT!
Informative, short sweet and to the point! Thanks for doing this. ❤️ the music!!
Oh my those are so good! I need to make these for christmas gifts!
Didn't notice the music being too loud until I read the comments, then it was all I could think about...
Too funny lol
Your music is very distracting
Good techniques, ugly design and terrible music though
love this. but have to agree that you don't need the music. it's too distracting.
I am finding several weights for Dura-car. What should I get
Great instructions...but please, do not include the annoying music.
The background music is too loud and distracting!!!!
Hi Sarah.
I followed your instructions for the 1st way to stencil to the letter... It bled so bad I don't know what to do! Maybe I didn't blot it enough? Of course my friend and brother says it looks good, but for me, I can tell and I want it to look good for my wife... Should I sand it off and re-stain and maybe try it slowly with a small brush? From afar it looks good, but up close, yuk!! It's a meditation table, so it will be seen up close.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
So sorry this happened. Some bleeding can happy and I know what you mean, you're always hardest on yourself. My biggest suggestion would be to use very little paint. Less than you think you need. You can go back with a second coat if needed. This should help prevent bleeding. Best of luck.
Video is great, but it would be great to show a close up so we can see that using the basting spray really helped create crisp letters.
Thanks for your input, I will try to put something together and show how well it works for me.
I just loved the video. U explain do well. Thanks a lot. I'm definitely going to try it.
just saw this, its great, been looking for spray glue that want leave stuff behind on wood, ty
Aw the music is way too dominating.
Thank you for the instructions but, that music has to go! Way too loud!
That Cameo looks so handy to have! I can think of so many projects I could do with one of those!
Definitely my go to craft tool!
I get alot of spray adheasive residue why? How do I get rid of it?
the music is way to loud.... very distracting
no music please; distracting
Its lovely I really like this I'm not creative at all maybe ill have a go see what I come away with ...
Hard to concentrate with music so loud.
Basting spray leaves a residue on the wood. How do you clean it off without ruining the paint?
I typically don't get residue on my wood, but it does happen from time to time. Wait until everything dries then use a little warm water on a soft cloth. The spray should dissolve and not hurt the paint.
Very informative. Thank you for the video.
Hi Sarsh, new subie! I don't own a cameo or Cricut. I have to try to do it the old way. I'm sorry. I'm poor girl. I can't afford one of those. I don't own a computer. Just never recovered from Recession in 2008. It hit me hard. Thanks for sharing. Sorry this video isn't for me.
That transfer tape is way to expensive. Come on Sil. You can buy RTapeA65 100 yards for 50.00
Thank you so much for making this video. I'm new to the Cricut/Silhouette world and I was trying to decypher between the vinyls and transfer sheets. I'm making slate signs so I really just need the transfer paper... This cleared it up for me without it being a lengthy video. Thank you so much! 😃
Vvv
Great instructions,thank you!👍
Background music is soooo annoying
What paint did you use?
Great video! Which method do you prefer most? We're struggling with getting the lines as clean as we want, and whether we pull the stencil up completely wet or completely dry it pulls up paint. How have you avoided this?
My go to method is vinyl, the other 2 work well but I tend to gravitate toward vinyl the most. Make sure your stain is completely dry first, then transfer the stencil and press really well to get any gaps out. Use just a little paint at a time to build up the color. I like to pull up the stencil while the paint is still wet, if it dries completely you risk peeling the paint off. Good luck!
You could try using chalk paint it seems less likely to peel. Hope this helps.
cut the music...PLEASE
\
Love Love looks great. I am new to your Vlog. Would it be possible for you to put a list together of what we would need to start this type of project x Happy new year x Also ths Software and Machine you have on ths Table x
.
Nice tutorial, however I agree with everybody regarding the background music. The added music is overkill, it distracts from the lesson you are teaching.
Sorry can’t stand the background noise. You are so very talented but the music is in competition with your voice.
Loved the video, didn’t care much for the loud music. But I liked the video. 🙃
I have found that even with one time adhesive material that if the surface is not totally smooth you will have bleeding, how do you fix that? Thanks.
Thank you for the info but thiis seems awfully cumbersome to do for a party with beginners.
U have no residue from the spray? I use your brand and I do
I'm sorry you are having that problem. If you do have residue you can use a damp cloth to dissolve it away once everything on your sign is completely dry. I try to use very little spray and keep the bottle a distance from the stencil to hopefully avoid any build up. Hope that helps, best of luck.
How do you seal the words ?
I got excited thinking this was gonna teach me something, but its just for cricut. Darn.
Jilly, I have another video that doesn't require a Cricut or any machine. It's truly and easy and inexpensive way to create a wood sign. ua-cam.com/video/QGMlj6EkDag/v-deo.html
@@SarahVanderkooy thank you so much!
I don't like loud anything. I didn't pay attention to the music, you did a great presentation.
Thanks so much for this very informative video. I will definitely use the methods that you shared.
Where do you purchase the Stencil Maker? I could not find a link.
I love your vids
Good information. I can’t listen because the music is too loud and distracting
Wonderful video!! What would you do if you had to make a sign on an uneven rustic driftwood??
Make a video in how you cut the stencil
Check out this one, it should help! ua-cam.com/video/T5m6CoPhXGc/v-deo.html
Can I use that material duralar with my cricut 2?
Yes you can. I currently use a Cricut Explore air 2 and it cuts Duralar.
Does this require sanding after it's dry?
No it does not.
can i finish the wood sign with wood stain ? or what do you recomend for the paint not to bleed ?
Are you using oil or water based stain?
Oil based stain for this particular sign, but you can use either for this technique.
how did you make the stencil "Home" without having to piece letters together, like the "Welcome to out" stencil?
Thanks for the informative video. Really helpful! Great job!
Loved the video but in the future, please omit the music!
Hi there. Great video! I have a question about the Silhouette Cameo machine that you posted the link to on Amazon. I am also only interested in the reusable, first method that you explained about. I noticed there are a ton of really bad reviews about the product. People are saying that it doesn't cut well, the software is terrible, and the customer service is awful. Did it take you hours of figuring it out or was it pretty straightforward? I really want to order it if it works and is fairly easy to use. Is there another machine that does the same thing that you recommend that has better reviews? Thank You! :)
Hi Kelly. I used a Silhouette for 5 years and loved it. It was easy to use and the company is great to work with. I recently got a Cricut, similar machine with the same abilities, and find that it is even more user friendly. The Cricut Explore Air 2 is a good price point and you can be up and running in like 30 minutes. Check it out here amzn.to/2S7dgW5
Keep an eye out at local craft stores for deals too! Hope that helps, happy crafting!
Thank you for sharing I like your channel
Turn the background music Off!
What kind of brush did you use?
Also, I didn't find the music distracting at all!
I use a sponge brush to apply the paint. Thanks for you kind comment!
Used basting spray and ruined my stencil!!!!!
Does basting spray work on paper stencils?
It can work on paper stencils, but use very little. If you use too much, there will be paper residue left on the wood. I am not able to reuse the paper stencil after using basting spray.
Sarah Vanderkooy Thankyou for the tip

How do you get rid of the spray adesif on the stencil? Ive tried many ways and its still sticky
I am able to clean it with soap and warm water. There is still a bit of residue but the stickiness goes away. Maybe try soaking the stencil.
Remove the music. I couldn’t watch to the end
nice..
Do you remove stencils while the paint is still wet or do you allow them to dry completely before removing?
I remove the stencil while the paint is still wet, if you wait until it dries you run the risk of chipping or peeling the paint around the stencil.
Hi, I have a question about the basting spray. I'm stenciling on to stained wood. Is there any clean up at all or does it come right off? i've read that it needs to be washed out of fabric when using it in sewing so I have to be sure it;s not going to leave a stain or anything. By the way, I like your video and the music! Thanks!
I have not had issues with residue. However, if you do have any left over on your board you can wipe it away with a wet cloth. That shouldn't damage the stain. Thanks for watching!
@@SarahVanderkooy How do you clean the glue off of the stencil?
Thank you for an easy to follow video.
Interesting video and well explained in detail. How do I make money doing this work?
Check out the next video in this playlist, I talk about how to host a sign painting party with lots of tips for monitizing.
Very well done. I am starting a sewing UA-cam channel and I like your style. Your instructions are very clear. Good job.
Thank you so much Anne!
How do you get your stencils to line up straight on your signs my fear is there going to be crooked
This is tough, I spend a lot of time lining them up. I eye the placement first, then use a ruler to make sure there is equal space on all sides.
Thanks for commenting on our last video. Love the quality of your vids and how set apart your editing style is from most. Nice work.
So the Cameo thing made the actual stencil? That's awesome! Thanks for the tips!
Yes you can cut stencils with a Silhouette Cameo - this video talks about that a little more in depth ua-cam.com/video/EjbKyi_N-bo/v-deo.html
I thought I saw you use an eraser to clean up the painted letters, can you tell me what it was?
Hi Patty, the tools i use are Silhouette tools to pull out the pieces of stencil. I think there are 3 shown in this video, a pick tool a scraper and a pick me up tool. They help to pull up stencils, weed vinyl or push down vinyl. You could also use the tools to scrape away a bit of dried paint if needed. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
Loved the video but the background music is totally distracting and annoying
Thank you where would I find that font Shellahera Script
