Great job a couple of suggestions 😀 Wet your brush a touch before you put it in the paint and it helps eliminate the brush stroke from happening. Trick 2 I use a straight edge razor blade to take off the raised bubbles on laminate!! Again Great Job!!
Kimberly, what would you do if the damage was on the top corners? I cut it off with the razor blade but it became puffy again when I painted it. Could I seal it with something? It seems what ever I tried didn’t work. TIA
Yeah, I think the mixture of the roses and the wildflowers just didn't work. Also, it might have looked a little better if the roses had been a brighter violet to match the flowers in the transfer paper.
I love how the doors are done in a decorative framed style as you can put any image or two tone color or anything you want really. And my gosh sweety, you must have a never ending stream of dressers passed along your way hahaha. The biggest piece of furniture I ever done (once) was a grand piano I had to do for my sister. This was long ago. The previous owner painted it with house paint and a roller. Like omg house paint on a grand piano. I died..lol. So I had to strip all the paint off and start from scratch. It was a huge job to do and I painted it black with a two part basecoat/clear coat automotive paint. Then I played it for hours. I love the decorative materials you use. Especially the choice in stencils and paper prints you use like this Decoupage paper. You have a lot of patience sweety I give you that. It's also fun when you can artistically paint flowers by hand using acrylics. I had to practice a lot before I had the hang of doing an array of flowers and leaves. You are very good at what you do and you make these pieces of furniture really stand out. Excellent work!
Thank you!! I can’t even imagine stripping paint off a grand piano😳😅 I have seen Furniture pieces done in automotive paint. They turn out so beautiful! Someday I would like to try painting flowers by hand. I’ll have to watch some Bob Ross reruns first!
I do agree.... this is a very in sweet looking piece. I haven't used any transfers or decoupage papers on furniture yet, only on small shelves or boxes. The DB florals, look like you hand painted them!! You really pamper your pieces Amy, and they always are standouts. I'm a big fan🌷
What a pretty piece! I could store my paints in that! Thedecoupage added so much character and interest! I love using rice paper! It is so easy and finishes beautifully! Great job!!
I have a whole bedroom set like this. Thought I couldn't paint it. Who knew?? Also I loved it but would have liked 2 knobs instead of one. I guess I like balance???
I swear, every video gets more and more amazing. I wish I had even an ounce of your talent. I am just starting on my journey of flipping furniture and I am just loving what you’re doing. This is such a pretty piece. I just love it.
Thank you so much!! That’s so nice of you to say. I’m sure your full of talent. It’s never easy at the beginning But with a few pieces under your belt I’m sure you’re going to be great😊
Thank you! I get that...It took me a while to gather all the basics like Primers, sealers and brushes But the decoupage papers are pretty inexpensive and the stencils you can use over and over so they do end up paying for themselves overtime. Before I could afford the Redesign with prima transfers I would decoupage napkins to my furniture. It looked great! Now I figure I can use one transfer on two or three pieces That way I can get a big bang for my buck.
I am absolutely beside myself this is so cute .. You did a fabulous job 😊 I'm getting ready to redo a little vanity and thank you so much for the inspiration... What a great video and a beautiful soft voice.... I just can't praise you enough.. Yours Truly from Kentucky 🙃🙂🙃
I went that route with the first paper And decided using the whole sheet worked better on this piece. Since the paper is so small I didn’t need to lay it down. I would definitely lay down for a bigger Decoupage papers though.
This is gorgeous. I love the floral detail. A good tip with the decoupage paper is to use a wadded up piece of cling wrap to smooth it. It has a slick enough surface that it won’t tear it like your fingers might. Just a thought. I learned that trick from The Reclaimed Heirloom. Love your channel, I’ve been binge watching your videos all morning. 🙂
Hi Amy this piece came up beautifully I love the Decoupage pattern you used and the stencil on t he sides ,you shared a lot of great tips thanks for that ,look forward to seeing more videos take care all the best Mary in Australia 🌻
New subscriber. I love that piece and the way you instruct. I use to help my dad paint and he also was a carpenter. I used to work in a signage shop so I've picked up a lot of knowledge over the years that will help me in flipping furniture. I've a practice piece I'm working on. Like you said, sometimes picking out the color is the hardest part.
I love this so much. It's very cute. Personally, I wouldn't have used both the transfer paper and the stencil, as they don't really go together, but I love them both individually. I also love that violet color. I would love to have this piece in my house. You did a really nice job on it and the tutorial. 💜
You did a fabulus job. This is just a sugestion not a crit. with the two sides being alike I would add two knobs even if the one does t work. I heard that smothing the rice paper with crushed saran wrap works ???I have 2 bottles painted ready to deco.Keep up the excellant work.
Its a beautiful piece, and I love the spring flowers on the front door panels. Could you use paint tape to tape off the area around the detail you painted silver, or would it pull the new paint off?
Ay be easier if the peice was on its back than trying to go up wards with the paper and even the silver detail. I LOVE SILIVER. AND SILVER HARDWARE. Beautiful Beautiful.
I would like to use a metal tray to redo. How do I prime and /or prep or seal it. I ordered your paint two years ago but never used it for this project, cause I am not sure about prep etc. Thanks for your reply
You don’t have to use Stick first with a three in one. I only used it because my surface was extra slick if you have a regular surface then you’re totally fine without it.
I actually did that when I first started. It comes with three papers but I didn’t like the way it looked With this particular design so I used the whole sheet instead
@@cathyleslie568 wow passive aggressive much. I was offering support to make things easier as I do this myself. I get tips and share tips with other people. So you comment is totally unnecessary.
No you would need a bonding primer first. Slick stick is a bonding primer you can use on metal, glass or mirror And other surfaces Then you can add your chalk paint.
I have a retailer not too far from my house, but you can also order online. You can order directly from the Dixie Belle website, or you can order from many shops on Etsy. I like Maika Daughters on Etsy. I have links to all the products I use in the description box If you want to check them out too 😊
Such a pretty makeover! I have been reluctant to try the Silk paint as I had a lot of trouble with Amy Howard’s one step paint- similar to what you said here about drip marks etc. Have you used Amy’s paint and if so, is Silk similar?
It's French for eggplant. More like O at the beginning and with a soft G... oberjeen. And it's a STUNNING colour no matter how you say it. IKEA used to do an entire suite of cabinets in high gloss aubergine yeeears ago. Was fabulous. This was adorable. I liked it with just the wildflowers on the front, that to me looked really perfect.
You sure can! I just like to smooth it out with my fingers because I can get a feel of bubbles and wrinkles. But a credit card or a brayer would work great!
Why didn’t you sand the whole thing before you put any paint or under coat on? That would make the paint stick and you wouldn’t have to dig out the sides afterwards.
Slick stick is a bonding primer. You can use it on shiny or slick surfaces so you don’t have to sand. Also, I did sand the bubbles With my sander but it does nothing. Carving them out makes for a beautiful finish.
(It sounded like you were trying to pronounce the word “aubergine”.) If you Google “aubergine”, you’ll find a quick tutorial how to pronounce it. It’s always been one of my favorite colors. 🤫…..It’s one of those fancy French words.

Also if you tear a lot of that top space it will smooth better
Kimberly, what would you do if the damage was on the top corners? I cut it off with the razor blade but it became puffy again when I painted it. Could I seal it with something? It seems what ever I tried didn’t work. TIA
SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL
Very interesting makeover. The front is awesome. The side flowers ... are too much. Thumb up for me.
Thank you! 👍😊
I agree I love the front, I even like the sides but not crazy about them being on the same furniture piece. But I do love the stencils.
I like the front. And love the knob!
Yeah, I think the mixture of the roses and the wildflowers just didn't work. Also, it might have looked a little better if the roses had been a brighter violet to match the flowers in the transfer paper.
@@VioletJoy Theres so much negativity in the world!! Why cant people keep their personal opinions to themselves?? Have you done any tutorials lately??
Beautiful! I especially like the decoupaged flowers! 👍😁💖
Thank you!
That decoupage paper is so cute
Right! 💕
Beautiful piece Amy! You are amazing!

Thank you 😊
Really pretty!

It would be much easier to lay the piece flat to add the decoupage plus rip the paper off unevenly above the flowers and then the line wouldn't show
I went that route with the first paper And decided using the whole sheet worked better on this piece. Since the paper is so small I didn’t need to lay it down. I would definitely lay down for a bigger Decoupage papers though.
That’s exactly what I would have done. Turned out really nice though!

Your furniture is very sweet I am making modern ꜰᴜʀɴɪᴛᴜʀᴇ Your furniture is very traditional sweet very very beautiful nice looking

I really loved it !
Thank you!
You did a fabulus job. This is just a sugestion not a crit. with the two sides being alike I would add two knobs even if the one does t work. I heard that smothing the rice paper with crushed saran wrap works ???I have 2 bottles painted ready to deco.Keep up the excellant work.
very pretty
Thank you ☺️
It's lovely!?
Beatiful job! I would like to know What slick stick is
Its pronounced: ah ber jean. It's what they call an eggplant in Europe. Looks great, I like your work.
Thank you!! 😊
Well, not exactly.... but close enough...says that french speaker!
Its a beautiful piece, and I love the spring flowers on the front door panels. Could you use paint tape to tape off the area around the detail you painted silver, or would it pull the new paint off?

two years ago but never used it for this project, cause I am not sure about prep etc. Thanks for your reply
I used the 3in 1 paint but I did not use slick stick first. I am hoping that if I coat it after with poly acrylic it will be ok.
You don’t have to use Stick first with a three in one. I only used it because my surface was extra slick if you have a regular surface then you’re totally fine without it.
Beautiful. I would have trimmed the decopauge design around the flowers to avoid having all that blank paper and filling and painting.
The closer you trim the decoupage paper the more satisfactory the result will be.
I actually did that when I first started. It comes with three papers but I didn’t like the way it looked With this particular design so I used the whole sheet instead
I would have done the same thing.. Still looks good...
Good for you Jane!! Nobody cares what you would have done!! Its a tutorial!! No one asked for the opinions!
@@cathyleslie568 wow passive aggressive much. I was offering support to make things easier as I do this myself. I get tips and share tips with other people. So you comment is totally unnecessary.
I found the easiest way to pronounce aubergine is to say ow-br-zheen or oh-bur- and the zh sounds like j in jean as in denim jean. hope this helps.
Yes, Thank you!
I'm jealous! I got a desk for 50. In Wa. From FB market place.
That’s a pretty good price for a desk!
Can you use a dry roller to smooth out the rice paper instead of your fingers?
Yes!
How much slick stick did you use.
Can you use chalk paint over wrought iron furniture?
No you would need a bonding primer first. Slick stick is a bonding primer you can use on metal, glass or mirror And other surfaces Then you can add your chalk paint.

It does not need stencil art work on the side as the flower décor on the doors makes it appear complete. 🤔
