    You're really spoiling us with all these uploads, Emily! They're really inspiring me to keep up with my art while I'm at university studying psychology. I've been following you for a while now (since your mean girl story time I believe) and I'm so happy that your channel and art has just continued to grow and flourish!!

    As someone who's worked in the paint and woodwork section of a home depot style warehouse for the past decade, this video was so immensely satisfying every time you correctly named each product and did all the appropriate prep. Beautiful job Emily.

    i felt so called out when you called the chartreuse baby-poop-yellow cause it's my favourite colour ahhhhhhhh. it turned out to cute, though the white throw cushion stressed me out since you couldn't rinse the dye out only secure it! I would've gone for the orange personally

    • @brittneynicolemcloud

    • @emilyartful
      @emilyartful  3 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      I love that yellow ochre/chartreuse color on a lot of things, but this couch just wasn’t it! 😂 It was a very strange version of those colors that just wanted to clash with everything, unfortunately.

    • @emilyartful
      @emilyartful  3 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      Also, I forgot to mention but I spent a whole hour rubbing the sette with white terry cloths after the settee was dry. It got almost all the extra dye out. By the time I was done, I scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed and nothing would transfer even into my whitest of linens, so it actually turned out fine. 😊

    3:04 You should have used a ladder stitch; this would have enabled you to hide the thread within the material (assuming that the tear isn't too wide).

    Can it be fixed? Without a doubt!!! I'm doing shabby Chic in my middle room and I'll be dying similar settee royal blue. ETA: I would never do chalk paint as a dye. I've done this before it's a pain in the giggy that's not act like it isn't. But satisfying - WORTH it at the same time!

    Very nicely done! I have done a lot of furniture upholstery and repair over the years. I believe you did an excellent job. You might try a little product called epoxy sculpt. Some artist use it for creating the sculptures along with their clay, check out ace of clay for an example. I have also used sawdust and wood glue mixed into a mixture to fill large areas where wood putty does not work, just a tip for next time. I do Enjoy your art and now your furniture redo’s thank you!
