Hi Linda, So happy to have found your channel as your Methode is what I've been looking for. While I love "crafting", my passion lies in creating "art" which to me is taking crafting up several notches. Thank you for doing that, as I have been having a difficult time finding creators who provide me with what I've been looking for.
I’m so happy that you like this type of content, I too want to create art! I’m fascinated with mixed media because it seems so freeing to me. Thank you so much!
Absolutely enchanting new subscriber 😊
Wow Linda, you did it again! These two projects are fantastic! With all of the layers of paint, the brickwork on the book actually looks like bricks, and the bottle looks like stone! I am really learning a lot from you.....thank you!
Thank you Lori, I really appreciate that!
Hi Linda, this was my first time watching you...I'm hooked! This project turned out so pretty and it's just my style. Thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you so much!
WOW! I have just found you, and I LOVE both of these projects! I love birds, and they are perfect for spring without being a "bunny". Thank you for sharing your artistic talent with us!!
Beautiful!
Thank you so much Cindie!
Both are beautiful, but that bottle is amazing, I love it so much.
Thank you Eleanor!
Hello Linda from East Tennessee! I am new and thankful I found you! The book is absolutely beautiful, so stunning! Wow the bottle is absolutely gorgeous!❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
I really like the molds they can make anything beautiful. I love the bottle and the book is great as well.
Thank you!

I really love the bottle so detailed. Sooo pretty!!!
Thank you!
Hello Linda! Your creations are Beautiful! I know they were time consuming but I greatly appreciate you sharing them with us. Love the longer videos. Take care and have a great week😊
Thank you so much Terri! I hope you have a wonderful week!
Hi Linda, both these projects are so beautiful and unique. It seems that both take some time but well worth it when they are finished. You are so talented, love watching your videos! 😄😄😄💛
Thank you so much, i really appreciate that!
Magnifîque le livre et la bouteille felicitation madame j'ai beaucoup apprécié votre savoir-faire et merci de le partager ❤❤❤👍👍👍💞
Thank you so much!
The book is beautiful and the bottle is gorgeous! 💜💜💜
Thank you so much!
If you lay another piece of paper between the cover and inside pages you can cover all the edges at once. Good ideas and I like your speeded up videos.
Great tip, thank you Toni!
Beautiful objects and great work. Love the bricks!!
You are overbrushing the crackle. The object is to get it on in one brush stroke, maybe two. Rebrushing removes the thickness you need in order for it to crack.
Thank you for the tip, much appreciated!
I absolutely love both of your projects! ❤ You're one of my favorite crafters on youtube. I've learned so much from you about layering, and you make everything easy enough for us beginning crafters. Thank you!
Thank you so much, very happy that I’ve been helpful to you!
I absolutely love this! I also love how clean and detailed your projects are and for that, I thank you!
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
I LOVE these! I've always liked upcycling bottles and jars.(Cheap thrills! Ha!)😊😊
Me too, thank you!
Simply amazing!! So much time and care goes into your pieces! ❤
Thank you Jennifer!
Wow😮❤ Wow!😮❤
Thank you!
Oh my goodness! That bottle is just beautiful! So much work but worth it. Wonderful job on both projects!
Thank you!
You had me from the get go...such pretty projects and I appreciate you sharing what goes wrong as well as right. Thanks so much.
You’re welcome and thank you!
I too just found your channel and love both of these projects. I love that you are using products that are easy to find and your instructions are perfect plus easy to follow! Thank you for such at great video!
Thank you so much!
You are so talented! I love both projects!!!! More please. 🤗⚜️
Thank you so much!
I always learn so much from you. These pieces are stunning!
That’s wonderful! Thank you so much!
So! Many! Layers! And both projects are beautiful.❤ I'm so ready for spring DIYs and decor. I appreciate that you don't edit out the difficulties you encounter and how you fix the problems, and don't try to make the process always seem simple and easy, because sometimes it's just not. I've had pretty good luck with DecoArt's 'Weathered Wood' crackle medium over raw, stained, and painted wood (haven't tried it on glass), if you or others want to try it out.
Thank you so much!
These were beautiful projects! That is so much layering! But as you did each one it brought out more beauty. You are so talented! Ty for sharing
Thank you so much!
These projects are so intricate and gorgeous. They are definitely worth the time and effort you put into them. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
When I have a bunch to make I dampened paper towels make them lay over the top of casting it keeps them just damp enough as I suffer through multiple clay pieces lol. Just spritz with mister on paper towel if it starts drying out. I also freeze clay pieces if I get worn out making multiples and thaw them out when ready to use. I really do enjoy watching all your work
Great tips, thank you so much!
I put my clay moulds in freezer and when frozen I can take them out without breaking delicate areas and I can paint them without damaging the designs, they don’t take long to thaw out so you can bend on round objects etc
Thank you, good to know!
I love your voice! It is so calming and soothing🤗
Oh thank you so much! I really struggle with voice overs because I have chronic allergies that affect my voice. Some days are worse than others but I’m very happy that you didn’t find it unpleasant!
I love your imagination with this book! Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Really enjoying your videos and techniques. That book….so pretty.
Thank you so much Lisa!
Linda, the bottle is beautiful. I’m always amazed at the way you layer color and texture- the result is always so gorgeous. You are very talented. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Gorgeous projects!! Love the stenciling and many layers you use. Also appreciate hearing the things you wish you'd done. Good to know about that crackle medium. Also...thanks SOOO much for the tip on sucking up the glue that seems to bubble out of the bottle. Always great projects and info!
Thank you so much Cass, I really appreciate that!
Thank you for shearing your beautiful art work. You are magnificent!!! ❤️😇👏👏👏👏👏🥰
Thank you so much Nilda!
Very nice video. I watched it all the way through! I rarely do that on craft video. This one was very different. This was informative as well as entertaining. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
So many inspiring projects and methods! Thanks for the tip about the glue!
Thank you & you’re welcome!
Oh my my everything was beautiful. Love loved it all!
Thank you!
Hi Linda!
Wow!! I just happened upon your video and are so excited. Your work is amazing ❤. Both projects turned out stunning!! Thank you for all the inspiration.
Another creator on CZcams ; Erin the provincial farmhouse also creates decor books. Sometimes she opens them up; glueing all the pages together and does the design/rice paper:castings on the 2 open pages .

I love your channel Linda! New subscriber ❤ Thank you for your time and sharin of your ideas. They are beautiful and very nice and interesting. Thank you ❤
Thank you Deborah! I really appreciate your sweet words and subscribing!
Great job using clay for the birds mold. I have that mold, and I love it. I tried the clay and gave up and finally went with the resin, I just ran out of patience, lol.
Thank you! Yeah, I will definitely be using resin next time 😊
I just put mine in freezer for a bit they will come right out. Those tiny stems are a bugger if not using resin
Love love both projects! Gorgeous job !❤
Thank you!
I just happen to run across your channel and I love both your projects. They turned out beautiful❤

Thank you Nicole!
Beautiful !!! 😍
Thank you!
Beautiful book!
Thank you!
Love everything you have made I also don’t have any luck with crackle lol
Thanks! I had a viewer tell me that I was overworking the crackle, only do 1 or 2 strokes and I thought, how did I not think of that since that’s what I’ve seen many people do?! So I tried that method on my current project & I did get some crackle, yay! I guess it just takes some practice, so don’t give up!
You gave me a lot of inspiration!
That’s wonderful, thank you!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Lovely projects x
Thank you!
Amazing!!!❤
Thank you Kathy!
Hi Linda! Just beautiful..where could I buy the bird mold?
Amazon has it, thank you!
BEAUTIFUL!! What medium did you use for the bricks?
Thank you! I used Masters Touch modeling paste, from Hobby Lobby.
Linda, where did you get bird paper and brick stencil?
The bird paper came from miltonsdaughter.com and the stencil came from amazon.
These both turned out just beautiful but with all the time involved, can you make enough money from these if you'd choose to sell them? Just wondering because I have a booth and nobody would be willing to pay me for the time invested. Just curious.
I won’t be able to recoup my time on these more detailed projects but I absolutely love making them. I’m just now getting ready to start selling my pieces so I’m curious to see what people are willing to pay.
@@lindadianedesigns1808 thank you for replying. I would really be interested in knowing also, and I appreciate your honesty re time recoup. What venue will you or do you use for selling your items?
Is there a reason you use a baby wipe? Instead of water
Just for convenience.
What’s the purpose of waxing the book pages?
To make them look aged. Plus it actually kind of stuck them all together which I like.
I LOVE these! I've always liked upcycling bottles and jars.(Cheap thrills! Ha!)😊😊
Me too, thank you!
