What did you think of my 12 Days of Giftmas series? Would you like to see it again next year? What was your favourite project? What was your least? Would LOVE your feedback! x
I thoroughly enjoyed the 12 days of Giftmas. So many good ideas. I'd love to see what your creative nature comes up with next year! Thanks for doing this.
I’ve spent a few days watching video after video on how to do this. I wasn’t to clear and screwed up my first attempt. Had I come across this video first, my initial attempt would have been perfect! Thank you so much for the straight up easy to follow and understand instructional video. 🙏
Love these 😍😍 they're a fab idea .. yes absolutely do this again next year 😍😍 its been fab .. I think the tray and this kne are my fabs .. followed by the cutie Dog Bottle holder 😍😍
Thanks so much, Claire 🥰 It's been a great excuse to share to really have fun experimenting for Christmas gifts. Hope you have some mod podge fun in your near future! There seems to be so many possibilities with handmade projects.
I made the cat bottle opener. It came out great and I think my daughter in law is going to love it! My wife thinks it is so cute. There were several other of your projects that I liked and may also try. Thanks so much and yes, please, do it again next year.
That's awesome news! I hope your daughter in law loves it 💗 Happy making and feel free to tag me on Instagram or Facebook age as would love to share them 😊
I really enjoyed your "12 Days of Giftmas" series Vikkie, I'd definitely like to watch that every year! My favourite project was the Fender Bookends, they're awesome.
That is great news 🥰 I hope your handmade gifts are appreciated ☺️ Please feel free to share some photos on my Facebook or Instagram as would love to see them 🤩
Great series, Vickiy. "12 days of giftmas" is very useful and I definitely think it's due a repeat for next year. My favorite project was the clock but what really caught my eye was that upside down belt sander! OMGosh! Mag clever!
Thanks so much and so happy you found them useful while I enjoyed making them too ❤️ I'll get planning for next year's content 😊 As mentioned in my other comment, I wish the belt sander trick was mine 😂 I'm always picking up tips and tricks when I'm there :)
Great series! I'm glad you included this one since I just moved (well I moved in May) to a one bedroom apartment leaving behind my shop space. This looks about right for my square footage. Love your attitude.
Glad it was useful and sorry to hear you've had go leave your shop behind. Hopefully this project has given you many 💡 as there's lots of things that can be personalised.
I've seen quite a few videos using this method, and they put the adhesive on the wood, not the paper. They also used a slightly damp sponge first before rubbing. You can use ink jet images but it's a slightly different method. Nitsa Creative Studio does some great videos on these different methods. I've thoroughly enjoyed the 12 days of giftmas.
Thanks for the tips :) It's definitely something I'll try again on future projects... perhaps when adding signature logos on my finished pieces! And so happy you enjoyed the series!
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK You are very welcome. I have an ink jet printer, which is why I looked up methods using that. Looking forward to another year of great project and creative ideas with you. :) Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Thanks so much! Yes, I agree... I'd be best thinking of ideas through the year and saving them for next year as early as possible 😅 The bottle opener definitely felf one of my most creative and is one of my favourites 😀
Good video! Much better than the "crafty Midwest American housewives" ones....."this is how you must do it". I've had mixed success too and it's good to see someone giving a genuine, no nonsense review. Liked the series, not sure I had a favourite though. 👍👍
It's always interesting to test some of these million-viewed videos and get a reality check 😄 Hope the mod podge matte works for you in the future! But perhaps different woods and materials also make a huge difference. And very happy to hear you enjoyed the series ❤️
great work on all the gifts ideas, thank you. I had to click on this right away, as i've just done some of these myself and also made same mistake and used photo transfer medium and it didn't work...2 coasters down and i've switched to matt mod podge :)
I loved this series, very well done! I'd like to see another run next year. And I'd have to say that the, Tea Box was my favorite! Now, on the other hand... My least favorite project, would probably have to be. The Dog wine bottle holder. But I'm not picking on anyone's style, or taste. It's just not my cup of tea.. lol anyhow thanks for all the great videos. And until next time. Take care
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK I'm sorry idk how I read over that, and didn't correct it. It was supposed to say, Serving Box. The Serving box was my favorite.
Now that is cool! Definitely sparking off ideas for stuff that I had thought I would need a router for! Even Cooler that you can do (most of it) on your boat! However, one from left field, if I may? What have you been doing with your stove? Admittedly mine is a little larger and is in a house (big chimney might make a difference), but mine does not spit ash out like yours has done. You haven't been running it with the flue damped down have you? ;o)
It's almost like magic, isn't it? 😂 I'm going to be honest... I haven't got much of a clue about the fire.... my husband just gets on with it. It doesn't spit out ash... we're just messy while clearing it out 😂
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK Once you understand how they work it is easy. But many don't know and it can affect your whole experience if it is set up wrong! Still if hubby keeps the fire going it is another reason to keep him handy! ;o)
I've found that the glossy side of mailing label paper works a lot better, and you can just peel it off afterwards. The only problem would be using a public printer, they might now want you to put non standard paper in there. Check out Crafsman - Steady Craftin's videos, they're super helpful
Thanks so much! I'm guessing that has something to do with how smooth and untextured it is? I loved this technique so much, i think a laser printer is the way forward to do it more often instead of inkjet!
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK Yes, it's slick enough to release the toner easily. And same, I'm mending a broken laser printer that I got for free for just that purpose
I'm quite tempted with HP Instant ink for laser printers. Not sure if it's cheaper in the long run for them - but we have instant for ink jet and love it
What did you think of my 12 Days of Giftmas series? Would you like to see it again next year? What was your favourite project? What was your least? Would LOVE your feedback! x
Thought it was a brilliant idea.
Thanks so much! Any particular type of projects you thought were the best?
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK I really liked the beer cap plinko and this one.
You're definitely in your father's heart - it has me trounced why anyone would give up a good piece of sapele.
Ha... he seems to have a few bits of it lying around hehe... I later realised the page thumb holders I made for day 2 were sapele too!
I thoroughly enjoyed the 12 days of Giftmas. So many good ideas. I'd love to see what your creative nature comes up with next year! Thanks for doing this.
Yay! Thank you! I've really enjoyed trying new things out and would love to keep experimenting throughout the year ❤️

I loved the entire 12 days of Christmas series. Thanks for doing it and thanks for this particular video on picture transferring to wood.
I made the cat bottle opener. It came out great and I think my daughter in law is going to love it! My wife thinks it is so cute. There were several other of your projects that I liked and may also try. Thanks so much and yes, please, do it again next year.

I enjoyed the series. Thought you did a nice mix of quick easy scrap projects, funny gifts, and a few nicer items. Something for everyone.
Thanks so much! Perhaps less alcohol related ones in the future? 😂
The Bier bottle game was my favorite. Please again next year.
Thank you for the great ideas.
Tschuss!
Thanks so much for your insight and glad you enjoyed the series! The bottle game was one of my favourites too 🤩
I really enjoyed your "12 Days of Giftmas" series Vikkie, I'd definitely like to watch that every year! My favourite project was the Fender Bookends, they're awesome.
Thanks! That greats news 😍 The Fender bookends really fun! I hope my brother likes them, but definitely plan to make some more :)
I would recommend not using a credit card but the side of a biro for the chamfered edges Vikkie 😉👌💯
Thanks for the biro tip :) I've got a lot more mod podge, so will have to tr this again on more designs!
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK best of luck 😊 ... and have a great Christmas
And you :)
Enjoyed them all. I am making them all. Let's do it again next year.
That is great news 🥰 I hope your handmade gifts are appreciated ☺️ Please feel free to share some photos on my Facebook or Instagram as would love to see them 🤩

Hi, nice I've not seen that before. They came out well even the white one looks good. I call my daughter pickle.
Thanks :) Yes, the white does have a charm as it's definitely bolder... perhaps it would be better with cheaper wood, maybe like MDF :)
j aime bien ce principe je ne connaissais pas c est superbe et en plus cela peut rappeler des souvenirs félicitations wickie patrick
Merci beaucoup! J'ai été très impressionné par les résultats et par la manière dont cette technique peut être utilisée à l'avenir !
Definitely should repeat the series next year it's excellent. Thank you and merry Christmas 🎄
Thanks so much and I'm relieved as I loved creating them all so much! Happy holidays 🎄

Really enjoyed them - maybe you could do a few in advance for next year? Definitely the bottle opener bottle top bagatelle game was my favourite.
Thanks so much! Yes, I agree... I'd be best thinking of ideas through the year and saving them for next year as early as possible 😅 The bottle opener definitely felf one of my most creative and is one of my favourites 😀
All were brilliant - loved the series, loved the presentation and ideas. Thank you so, so much and hope you have a great x mas 🙏👍
Thank you so much and you too 🤩

@The Carpenter's Daughter - Vikkie Lee I've used the liquitex one but only with inkjet and it really isn't great!
great work on all the gifts ideas, thank you. I had to click on this right away, as i've just done some of these myself and also made same mistake and used photo transfer medium and it didn't work...2 coasters down and i've switched to matt mod podge :)
Oh, what a shame you had the same experience! Maybe it really is just best on textiles? But so happy you enjoyed the gift ideas! ❤️
I loved this series, very well done!
I'd like to see another run next year.
And I'd have to say that the, Tea Box was my favorite!
Now, on the other hand... My least favorite project, would probably have to be. The Dog wine bottle holder. But I'm not picking on anyone's style, or taste. It's just not my cup of tea.. lol anyhow thanks for all the great videos. And until next time. Take care
Thanks so much again and glad you enjoyed the series! Which project do you mean by the tea box?
@@TheCarpentersDaughterUK I'm sorry idk how I read over that, and didn't correct it. It was supposed to say, Serving Box. The Serving box was my favorite.
Ah.. now I get you ☺️
Great job
Cheers ☺️
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
Now that is cool!

Did you say you used a laser printer? I liked the whole series! Gracias
Thanks so much :) Yes, I used a laser photocopier. Apparently inkjet printers do work, but the process is different.

Why not inkjet. How many people have a laser printer?
It doesn't work with it apparently... which is why I recommend people going to their local library to use their scanner/printer
