I know an extremely intelligent creator that has taught me and thousands of others that "perfection is overrated". If everything came out perfectt and the same every time they wouldn't be homemade pieces of art. With that said, I really respect how real and raw you are in your tutorials. It shows us that making mistakes is part of it, and it's ok. I could go on and on, but you already know how I feel. I still like to remind you sometimes.💞
Mr Crafty Pants gave you a shot out!!!! I was like yeahhhhh thats my girl! Thats huge, so proud of how far youve gone, and keep going. As always, thank you
Hi Delonda! I used the Hippo brand waterslide decal and didn't have any problems getting my image to slide off the back. I didn't mirror my image and I put all of my decals in a large bowl of warm water. Most of the decals were sliding off the backing when I was ready to apply them. Great tutorial, thanks
Delonda, great tutorial. Thank you for being honest and show what a struggle it is to do. I def learned some new things. I never worked with waterslides yet. You did great ! 😊
I do know if you put in the oven it will set the ink or paint. When I have done Painting on Glass and then baked in oven it set it so the paint does not run or come off. Thank you for this Tutorial - I tried 5 times with the Waterslide and gave up and decided it was a waste - I will go back and do it your way and see what I get. Thank you for your time I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful weekend Delonda!
Thank you for your wonderful content! I won't be trying water decals! Sorry you had a hard time but grateful that you did so that I don't try it. Hopefully you find a technique that truly works for you and get the success to I love it! I love it !I love it! Thank you delonda for having such great content truly a blessing for some of us that have crickets but don't know how to use them to the fullest possibility! I don't know where you teach but I know those students are on fire! I love your personality and I know you share that in the classroom with them. Thanks for all you do for us online and teaching us and for your students in the class for teaching them!
I enjoyed watching the tutorial. Definitely need to place warm water on your item when applying as well as in your tray. I use the the Hippoo waterslides both clear and white. On painted surfaces I use the clear. On glass I have used both clear and white depending on my choice of pictures. I also spray my waterslides with clear urethane spray 3 coats allowing 20- 30 minutes dry time between each coat. ( with each spray coat I spray 3 directions) On tumblers I like to mirror my picture so I can place the wrap face to the tumbler and then pull the carrier sheet off gently. Then using a silicone ‘brush’ to squeegee out excess water and any bubbles or wrinkles. I love doing those.😊
Hello, I love watching your videos, they're always very helpful thank you so much! I found a way to do waterslides to make it a little easier to work with using warm water and a silicone brush it works wonders.
Delonda, as usual thank you for your honest tutorials. I also have a suggestion.....please put the color of your nail polishes in the descriptions as well ;)
Hi Delonda! Cool tip that may help is to slide the image of the backing paper just a bit to get it started before placing on mug. Gently slide of the backing.
Hi Delonda! First time viewer. I found your video while trying to figure out how to distress inkjet printed waterslide decals for a guitar build I'm doing. First I want to say you have the GREATEST smile on TH-cam! (I started smiling within the first few seconds of watching, lol) Second, if you have any techniques or secrets for distressing inkjet printed decals, might you share? Thank you for brightening up my day!
You are so welcome! I really wish I had an answer that would help you; but that is so far above my crafting level, lol. The only distress I know is when my Cricut won't cut accurately. Try doing a search on TH-cam for that exact question and see what comes up.
😂😂😂 Yeah, those cricut cutters can be agitating. I use one for glass and metal etch resists,... I'm more distressed over weeding, frankly, 😂 I searched a bunch, but not finding what I'm looking for. (The usual on google and TH-cam) I think tech hates me, lol. I might be the ONLY person on EARTH who NEVER gets an accurate response from Google. I could ask for purple and it will show me green. 😂Thanks anyway for the quick response! I'll continue searching.
It’s funny this is a recent video. I just used a water slide decal yesterday. It will is an interesting product and takes some time. I’m still learning. I got a couple wrinkles in mine but it’s just a product for me so it’s all good.
The trick to it is to have the water at exactly 78 degrees. I also sprayed it 3 times and let it dry as you recommended. If it is warmer the decal will stretch and tear. You don't have to reverse the decal. The temperature of the water is critical.
I been trying to use a different paper clear I see the clear one is more difficult to place it mine is the one you take off then you place it I am so bad in this my imagine get very broken and bubbles. I will try this one you use look so much better.
Hello Delonda, Would the decals need to be sealed on the glass wear? If so, what would you use to seal the designs. How long do you wait before the dishwear can be used?
Thank you for the video! 💗 I’ve had this question for a while and finally decided to ask. How do you get your michaels vinyl holder on your wall. I tried putting mine on my door and my door doesn’t close
And THAT is why I love you!!! It’s not as easy as we all think it will be and you’re not afraid to show the boo boos and we all learn from the mistakes! I do love the Rockets glass!!! 💕💕💕
Not sure if this will help you, I hope it does. When you are watching the video, there is a way to show it down . I an a visual learner also and it helps me to do that so I hope it does for you also. If you have any Quaid feel free to ask.
The glue is between the decal side and the paper side. not the side you are using. once wet slide off backing paper so that the back of decal is on the surface. get it ?
@@CraftingwithDelonda I don’t think it was all that bad Delonda. I really believe the trick was in the brush smoothing it out with the brush, also making sure the water was a little warmer. I believe when using certain products warmer water and maybe letting the decals sat a little longer my thoughts. You really did a good job. Sometimes things don’t always come out the way we want them to but at the end you always give out good and positive suggestions💖🤗🥰! I just love you Mrs Delonda and your teaching is the greatest. It’s always a pleasure watching you.

Thank you! I am definitely going to try a different brand and see if that helps ❤️
How do you put it on if you don’t mirror it?
@@patrustemeyer9401 face up, the backing slides away from it. I watched videos of other ppl that used the Hippo brand.
Delonda, great tutorial. Thank you for being honest and show what a struggle it is to do. I def learned some new things. I never worked with waterslides yet. You did great ! 😊

water slide is an easy project. I might try. Thanks Delonda
I'm sure you can do it!
Hello, I love watching your videos, they're always very helpful thank you so much! I found a way to do waterslides to make it a little easier to work with using warm water and a silicone brush it works wonders.
I'm definitely going to take your suggestions. I appreciate it. I just couldn't get it to work for me, doing it this way.
Delonda, as usual thank you for your honest tutorials. I also have a suggestion.....please put the color of your nail polishes in the descriptions as well ;)
Thank you! I think you might be the only person interested in that. I never remember the colors, I just say “pink please” 😂😂
@@CraftingwithDelonda 😂😂😂
Delonda even though some of the decals didn’t turn out like you wanted them to You did and excellent job
Thank you ❤️
Honey and Raspberry font. I like that
Go and grab it from dafont.com sis!! ❤️

Hello Delonda,
Would the decals need to be sealed on the glass wear? If so, what would you use to seal the designs.
How long do you wait before the dishwear can be used?
Hi there, sealing the design is optional. Hand made…hand wash
Thank you for the video! 💗
I’ve had this question for a while and finally decided to ask. How do you get your michaels vinyl holder on your wall. I tried putting mine on my door and my door doesn’t close
You're welcome. Make sure the hooks at the top are flat along the top of the door.
@@CraftingwithDelonda and give it a good slam!🤣
@@morgan3074 😂😂
Girl, you are so silly 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And THAT is why I love you!!! It’s not as easy as we all think it will be and you’re not afraid to show the boo boos and we all learn from the mistakes! I do love the Rockets glass!!! 💕💕💕
Thank you so much Shari! You know I have to share the good and bad...otherwise someone may be intimidated to try it.
@@CraftingwithDelonda true! Not me…I don’t intimidate east! 😂😂😂
I love your shirt. Is that a design you did? What material did you use?
Thank you. I just made it last week. It is Siser Brick. The materials are listed below this video. th-cam.com/video/PK6gNXUvIKY/w-d-xo.html
Love the images
Thank you 😊
Can you use water slides decal paper on any printer or do you have to have a inkjet printer
I haven't tried it with any other printer. I think it's important to pay attention to the directions on the paper you're using.
Also 2X Matte Seals, Protects & Revitalizes Spray it awesome with waterslides
Thank you ❤️
I'm thinking about making a r.i.p decal for my rear view window on my car do you think it will work?
I would not use this. I would use Oracal 651.
I had some of those issues…I made sure my water was warm and any fading I had I decided I did not spray it enough with the spray.
Thank you! I am going to try it again with a different brand of paper too.
The Rockets glass looked good
Thank you 😊
❤
Thank you ❤️
The Houston Rockets 🚀 is my favorite
Thank you 😊
Can this process be used with styrofoam cups?
You are so wonderful
Thanks!
TFS👍🏽
You're welcome
Loved your tutorials and videos. When you 1st started you seemed to go slower. I’m a visual learner and if something is left out I get confused.
Thank you ❤️

Yes, I get it and I have done it successfully before. I just couldn’t this time 🙃
I believe the paint brush worked best!
I agree! I have had success with waterslide decals before. I’m not sure why I couldn’t get them right this time.

I want to put a picture of a bridge on a wine glass!
I'm sure it can be done. I'm not sure why I had such a hard time with this. I have been working on these since last week.
Hello, I don't know why mine slides off the cup.
To prevent color leaking I used clear spray paint instead of clear acrylic.
Really?!?!? I would have never thought of that. I am certainly going to try this again. THANK YOU 😊
Let your waterside sit longer … and when you seal it I usually do two three coats and dry a total of a hr.
Thank you so much for those tips!!!
What are waterslide stickers
Take a look at the video 😊
The secret is to have the water at exactly 78 degrees.
Thank you for sharing. I have not tried it again since this epic fail, lol
It seems to be too much work. Thanks goodness for sublimation 🤣
Yes!!!!
❤
