Thank you so much!! 🙏🏽💖🥰

If you are looking for a smooth/no brush stroke finish you’ll definitely want to focus on the brush you get or consider a roller. The chip brushes I used to test them all was pretty coarse which left some level of brush stroke in each sample. As for the bleed, they all did surprisingly well but from my experience the tape you use does make a big difference. I hope this helps and I will definitely consider doing another one of these videos when I get back. 🤗👍🏽

You are so welcome and thank you for the feedback. Sending you love back! 🙏🏽💖🥰

It was really tough to get the best lighting to show the differences on camera. One good thing about The Home Depot chalk paint is that it can always be returned if it isn’t the color you thought it would be, as long as it isn’t tinted. They are really great about that. You may also be able to return other brands but I recommend asking the store before purchasing them. 😉

I appreciate the feedback. 🙏🏽

Yes this

I felt the Valspar was a little more matte and chalky than the others but none of them really felt “dusty” per say. As for the scratch test, I recommend prepping the surface for furniture that will get heavy use. This will keep them from chipping. I never did have any issues with any of the paints chipping on furniture I’ve painted, including a shelving unit that I restored and originally had a black satin paint on it but if you are going to be reselling, better to play it super safe.

Hello Kate! My apologies for the late reply. I’ve never used chalk paint on carpet so I can’t say from experience that it would work but I’m thinking it may not be the ideal paint for it. I know they sell fabric paints that may work better for that. I’ve seen them at Home Depot in the past. Either way, I’d recommend contacting the manufacturer of the paint you’re thinking of using to ask them for the best use practices and recommendations. I hope this helps and thank you for the inquiry. It’s a great question!

@Kemi Lewis Thank you so much and you are most welcome!! 🤗🙏🏽💖

@Tracey Michael Thank you so much!!! I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙏🏽🤗

Thank you so much!! 🙏🏽💖

If you want to learn something about chalk paint watch the Annie sloan video.

@Mona Onassis That's a great question! I called Balsam Hill to confirm and they did say that the bulbs are indeed glass. 🤗

@ J S You are so welcome! 🤗 I’m glad it helped. Chalk paint is really great and I think you’ll really enjoy it. Easy clean up, dries quickly and you can just do so much with it. Enjoy!! 🙃

@raggedyannred I purchased my Teflon sheets on Amazon but you may be able to find them in your local grocery store too. I’ve included a link in the video description box for the ones I purchased. 🙃 The Teflon sheet distributes heat evenly to make sure your iron on material is evenly transferred and also serves as a small protective barrier between the fabric material and heating element.

@T Jackson First and foremost, I hope that this Christmas was a very special one for you and your daughter. I wish all the best for your daughter and I am so happy to hear she’s following her aviation dream. That’s amazing! ✈️😆 I appreciate the feedback and am also happy to hear that you found my video enjoyable. I absolutely love my Balsam Hill tree and hope you also enjoy yours for years to come. 🤗🎄

@XYZ ZYX Thank you for your feedback. There are certainly different ways you can put up your tree. That’s what makes each one so beautifully unique. 😊

You are so welcome!! 🤗

@Dusty Bartlett You are absolutely correct!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great question! You can absolutely wash the onesie before hand incase there is any shrinkage but I don’t recommend using any fabric softer as this may affect the way the iron on materials adheres to it.

@Nadia Layla I’m glad you found it helpful!! 🤗 I’m currently in transition of a recent relocation but I will certainly see what I can do. 🙃

@Elaine Harley Absolutely! It’s the Brewer Spruce. Here is the link for it on the Balsam Hill Website. ✨🤗🎄✨ www.balsamhill.com/p/brewer-spruce-artificial-christmas-tree

@Nikkenz Graphics No you can’t use water slide paper on a shirt. You will need to use Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) or an iron on transfer paper if you are looking to print and cut your image before placing it on your shirt. I like using Jolee's Boutique Easy Image Iron-on Transfer Paper for Colored Fabrics but there are others you can try too. a.co/d/i3ePvzj I hope that helps! 🤗

@K Hue Thank you so much!! ✨🤗💖🙏🏽✨

@LaTosha Martin You are so welcome!!! 😆 Yes! My trick around that is using the "slice" feature. By using this feature you can create a cut out of each letter and then line them up the way you want them to appear, and even change the colors, etc. I've listed another video below incase you haven't used the slice feature before. You can go right to the time stamp. czcams.com/video/Bc3E5yxok88/video.html I hope that this helps! 🙏🏽🤗

@Maria Lightning Miranda-Herrera Welcome to the family!! I’m so happy to have you here!! 🤗💖 I’m really glad you liked this idea and hope you enjoy making it. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. ☺️

@@EliLeeDesigns thank you very much and yes I do have a question ? Only because I was watching lot of videos but out of what did you make those circles from for the cups ? And thank you, Maria 🥰🥰🥰

@@mmoet1970 I'm happy to help! I used the Cricut Basswood sheets. You can find it using this link @t . You don't have to use basswood sheets from Cricut if you find others but it was what I had on hand. I hope that helps! 🤗

@Tracey Dunlap Thanks so much for the warm welcome back love, and you are so incredibly welcome!! Blessings!! 🙏🏽🤗💖

@Norma c McKay You are so very welcome! 🤗💖 I hope you enjoy making the onesie for your nephew! Feel free to share your experience and how it turned out. 😃 And I thank you so very much for the detailed feedback! 🙏🏽🤗 💖

@T Don’t be nervous! Just remember that it’s all bout having a good time and learning new things. I’m sure you are going to do an amazing job and can even share some fun tricks or hacks you learn along the way! 😉 Thank you so much for the feedback as well! That means so much to me and I’m so happy that you found my video helpful. 🙏🏽🤗 I’d love to see your beautiful creation when you finish. Have fun crafting! 😆

Yes!! Great for custom business items. 🤗

@Pineiro Law Thank you so much my friend! 🙏🏽😅💖

@Jacki Finland You are so welcome, and thank you so much for the feedback! 🙏🏽🤗 I definitely enjoyed that ArtMind so much. I was surprised at how different the consistency was from another color I tried in the same brand but the white was really beautiful and very creamy.💖 I hope you enjoy it too!! 😆

@Kandy Cos Thanks for the feedback my friend!! 🙏🏽💖🤗 After spending so much time looking at them, I began to question if my eyes were playing tricks on me. 😂 #1 was my favorite too. I just couldn’t get over the consistency and how great the coverage was. Another color I had used in the same brand was much thinner. It’s really so interesting. Love that you’ve been posting again! 🥰

@@EliLeeDesigns we're making progress sleeping more and taking longer naps...only problem is having to keep quiet while she sleeps 😂. I'm finally starting to unpack my shop stuff so the paint and tips are really helping me get it together

@@KandyCosplay That’s fantastic!! Though the keeping quiet while unpacking your goodies I’m sure must be a challenge. ☺️ Glad things are going well and you are finding a routine. It can’t be easy. Stay warm!! The weather everywhere has been nuts! 😳 But in all fairness, I’ll take the Florida chilled air over snow or close to below 0 temps any day. 😅

@Greta Lorena Burgos So happy you loved it!! 🙏🏽🤗💖 I hope you enjoy using the platform!! 😉

@Ivette Hernandez You are most welcome, and I appreciate the feedback too. 🙏🏽🤗💖 It really is such a great platform to work with. The possibilities are truly endless and the end results are beautiful, professional, and best of all, custom to fit your needs. 🥰

@Kandy Cos Thanks love!! 🙏🏽💖🤗 Glad you enjoyed it and the tips too!! When the card stock idea came to mind I was like 🤯, I have to share this!! 😂

@Greta Lorena Burgos Thank you so much!! 🙏🏽🤗 Yes!! I definitely recommend getting one. So many neat things you can make with it. If you click on the link in the description box it will take you to the one I have but also show you some other colors like champagne and blue that are actually on sale! The blue one is so pretty!! 😆

@@EliLeeDesigns ooooohhhh champagne!!! Gotta love that

@Greta Lorena Burgos Absolutely!! 🤣🥂 It’s really pretty too. I almost wish they sold the top covers separately so that they can be interchanged. Hmmm… now that’s an idea. 🤔😅

@LRCC I added a fitness and weight goal too!! Cheers to accomplishing it together!! 🤗💖

@KimChi I'm so glad you loved it and thank you so much for the feedback! 🤗🙏🏽 Cheers to accomplishing our goals together this year!! 💖
