In the old days we called transfer paper "carbon paper."
....can still smell them from “the old days” lol.
I still have a thin, unopened box of carbon paper. These days I call "the old days" my younger days. 😉
Wasn’t it a nightmare typing away only to find you had it the wrong way round 😆 subscribed and rang the bell. What a lovely channel!
I remember those good old days, using carbon paper and typing 3 copies! Omg. Yes, the smell! Shorthand, any one?. lol
Oh the joy of typing/shorthand class! The memories brought back by thoughts of carbon paper!
You’re so talented Thumbs up Always 💕The person who is reading this comment, I wish you great success, health , love and happiness 💖 Thank you for inspiring me to push harder with my videos 💖
Right back at ya x
Same to you and yours
Thx you're kind
@@deborahveitch5307 Thank you!💕
@@knulife8344 Thank you!🌹
… why don’t you just have your child draw directly onto the board and then seal it … that would actually be an authentic piece of art …
@@bonnylouwho76 … yes … most people would probably not know that … thank you
@@bluemoon8268 🤣
I guess I'm mushy, cause this gave me chills. What a wonderful way to save your child's hand writing and/or art work! My 5 year old son drew something for me, yesterday and now I will forever have it burnt into my chopping board! Thank you!!
There is a company that turns your kids drawings into stuffed animals too
I had my daughter wrote that she will love me forever and sign it in my old diary when she's like 10 years old, now I still kept the diary and my daughter is 29 years old this year. Time flies so fast, the sweet memories still there, intact.
Love this idea! I’d probably hang the cutting board on the wall as a piece of art in my kitchen.🥰
I like to use things that are meaningful, so for me, I’d like to use the cutting board with my children’s writing. I’m in my 40s, and I’m looking to collect less, and to bring more joy into the practical.
Ditto
I would too. Why go to all that trouble then slice stuff on it?
@@cherylloaring2016 💫
Me too.
It’s easier to transfer it to the cup if you just lay the paper down and then slide the paper out from under the decal. Hope this helps. Love your projects
Don't forget to print the image out REVERSED, so that it's positioned correctly when you place it face down to iron it on.
and names are not backwards.
What a beautiful way to display those precious memories we don't want ruined! I'm thinking I want to use this idea to make a quilt out of each of my two girls' art work, and gifting it to each of them for next Xmas (I have some time) 🤣. I'm also thinking about transferring some of them onto canvas and framing them to make an art gallery in my hallways. So many ideas you've given me! I'm heading to my precious artwork archives and getting started right away. Thank you for sharing! 🙏❤️
Love your idea for a quilt!! The dish towel is sweet but will wear out long before a quilt!!
@@willow2333 thank you. I thought the same about the hand towel. The quilts are going to take me a while, but I went to the store today to get the transfer paper and a couple of large canvases. I picked out a few art pieces and transferred them onto the canvases. They turned out so much better than I imagined. 😍😍 I'm making the frames tomorrow. I figured I would start with a couple of large ones and go about making my gallery in our upstairs hallway from there. My girls are both adults now, so having my precious artwork there, done in a way that compliments my decor is perfect for me. I can see myself going overboard with this project, though. 😂😂
I was literally JUST a thinking the same exact thing, regarding quilting. I want to transfer not just artwork, but family photos on them. Working on a family tree quilt, and wanna have all of our families memorabilia and photos on it. Also need to find out if once transferred, if these are machine washable. I'm assuming so. Because after she lifted the paper on the fish towel, it looked like what you'd see on T-Shirts. I know those are best washed after reversing the clothing inside out. But this would be good to know.
@@JANEEDISTURBED that's a great idea with the family photos. It sounds very lovely. I got the Avery brand washable transfer paper for the canvas project. The lady at the store said it washes very well on t-shirts, so it should work very well on a quilt since it gets washed less often than a t-shirt.
I don't have kids so I just can't relate to this. I have a cat. Maybe his little paw prints...
I use water slides on tumblers. It’s doesn’t say this in the video, but be sure to seal the water slide with at least three coats of clear sealant to make image durable. When applying water slide to cup, it should be left of the backing paper, placed on the cup, and then slowly slide the paper backing from behind. Also, the cup should be wet, and air bubbles can be removed with a silicone flat brush used in tumbler making.
I agree. There are easier ways to apply the waterslide.
I am 70+ and just wondering 🤔 what Is a waterslide?
@@louiseferrell1555 there are plenty of 40+ who don't know😉. It is a decal paper that many crafter use to print images. 2 types clear and white for laser or inkjet printers. You print, seal, cut out and use water to activate the glue to stick to ceramic, glass and metal surfaces. Many use under epoxy.
Great ideas for grandma too! Fun gift ideas for mother or father's day . Thanks for sharing your talent.
Hello Susie, hope you are having an amazing day.
Wonderful way to preserve your children’s art work❗️What a great mom you are‼️❣️🤩
hello there, hope you are having an amazing day.
I use these board for little breakfast charcuterie board for my 2 year old daughter’s breakfast and lunch. She LOVES to have a breakfast board each morning and either a board or a bento box for lunch. It makes feeding her easier since she willingly eats and it’s fun. She eats more this way than she does if I put it on a plate.
Loved the first two crafts! Definitely trying them out! I have a wood burner kit already! So that’s a start! 😂
On the dish towel, I would have cut out the drawing, cut along the edges, to get a much cleaner look. Great idea, and appreciate your showing the products used. Maybe list them in the description/info under the video for easy reference?
👍👍👍!
That is just so cool and cute. It's a more permanent way to keep & treasure when our young children express their love when they 1st learn to write and draw.
hello tammi, hope you are having an amazing day.
Another fun idea to store for another day...gotta have time to organize myself.
We used to do something like this back in the 70s...we'd find a picture and a piece of wood. We would scorch the edges of the picture then glue it to the piece of wood then cover it in epoxy. Made pretty wall hangings.
These would be great gifts for Grandma, too!!
I wish I had a wood burning tool! If I did, I'd want to burn everything, but probably just burn myself!!
Another idea might be to shellac the copy, then keep it as a decoration!
I found one very inexpensively at either Hobby Lobby or The Dollar General (I can’t remember now, my apologies). It was around $10 I believe? I bought it two or three years ago, but I can’t imagine it’s gone up too much in price. It works like a dream and has all of the different size and shape bits. Any hardware store should have them but you may want to call ahead first.
@@clairebeane3455 thanks for the heads up!!
@@amyralls6218 You’re most welcome!! Happy memory making!! 🙂
What a beautiful way to collect your children's art
This is a sweet idea. Love the sentiment of preserving children's handwriting.
So often we lose these precious memories, amazing way to keep then! Blessed and safe days!
Wood burning is known as pyrography. Nice to see you showing what can be done with a cheap cutting board bear in mind you might want to use the reverse for cutting as the writing won’t last five minutes cutting on it. I’ve been doing these for 15 years so it’s not a new idea. But credit to you for showing others. ;0)
Happy Monday! Beautiful decors!
Amazing ideas 🥰
I was looking forward to see more than just one diy with the cutting board.. since that's what the title said
There are 2. A mug and a cutting board
@@calligraphybytammy and a hand towel. 😊
I LAMINATED MY SONS ART (ALL 11X14) AND GAVE THEM TO HIS GRANDPARENTS AS PLACEMATS
Uh, that's a piece of carbon paper. Used to have to put that in a typewriter in order to make copies of the document you were typing. Brought back memories
Great idea!! ..but I'd have her write directly on the board and skip the carbon paper all together
Thank you for sharing this cute video, my grandson ❤️ loves to draw he's 7 and loves grandma. You gave me great ideas thanks once again 👍 😊
Im in my feels. My 3 month olds name is Brielle. So much cuteness
Very creative, Thank you for sharing have a blessed day stay safe and healthy. 🙏❤🙏❤
“Don’t cut on the image side, use the back [of the cutting board.]”
…Cuts celery on the image side.
I know! Right?
Thank you so much, I really really enjoyed watching you create these amazing and stunning artwork and writing too. Great ideas too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
hello there, how are you doing.
These ideas are so classy I love it! I'm so inspired I'm throwing a prom for all the neighborhood cats. The outfits I'm making each of their outfits from pipe cleaners and contact paper. Do you think cats like hits of the 80s.
Great idea! One year, when my babies were itty bitty, I traced their hand print on wooden plaques and used a wood burner and gave them as gifts. It turned out lovely!
Beautiful idea! 💜
I have never found the cutting boards. I keep looking!!
LOVE this idea!!! Thank you Thank you ♥️
SMART, I love these ideas 💡 tks for sharing, looking forward to seeing more ideas from you
Love it!!!! great idea, great job! blessings and keep it up!
Thank you for this great video. I have gotten so tired of Hometalk's too fast videos with subpar instructions that I rarely even attempt to watch them any longer. This video was excellent and I appreciate being to watch and learn without having my blood pressure go up.
Great video. But, lol, I changed the Playback speed to 1.75 faster. Maybe because it's bedtime and I have ADHD ( recently diagnosed). I want to try some of these projects
.. after I tidy my home and find supplies.
But don’t forget to Print your image in “Reverse” before ironing onto your choice of material……….!
Such great ideas and so easy. Thanks!
The cutting board idea is very cute. God bless you!
Where did she find carbon paper? I haven’t seen it in a decade or more!
Yes, I agree- and why did she call it transfer paper?
Amazon has them. I bought a pack just recently, and I have to tell you, the possibilities are truly endless.
I tried to copy the link, but YT didn't allow it. I hope you find it.
Edit: search for carbon or graphite paper on Amazon
@@Rebecca-zw4pm Thank you, Rebecca.🙂
@@barbarahecht4617 you're welcome 🤗
Thank you for this demonstration.

I wanted say everyone has difference ways of doing things you keep on doing it your way it wonderful mommy doing that for their babies which ever way you choose i for it
Great ideas. Thank you for sharing.
Very clever thanks for sharing👏👏👏😃😃😃👍👍👍
Great Idea.
Thank you. Much appreciated 🌱💛
This is wonderful!
I like that with the cutting board🥰
Very clever amazing work great ideas 💡 👍 😊
I really love this. Thank you!
It would’ve been real cool if you’d keep the “i” in dad like the original. I imagined she wrote it like she may have pronounced it. Cute 🥰
🍃🪴🍃Thank you! I love the cutting board! My plan is to get our family to AUTOGRAPH a card for my son but technically, I will add everyones name to a cutting board or plaque like you taught! Thanks for the great idea!
God bless you!
Lynne🍃💜🍃
Really nice creations that aren't too hard n u have something special...
I absolutely love these ideas.
Thank you for sharing🙏🏻🥰
I love all of these ❤️❤️❤️
If you put your transfer on a plastic sheet protector it will stick, then you lay it on your project and peel off the plastic sheet protector. It works as a transfer sheet.
Thank you for the wonderful ideas. Blessings 🙏🏻🎉
Great ideas!
In wood in crafts in highschool I really enjoyed using that wood burning tool.
Thank you for the demonstration.
Very creative...I love it!!
These are great ideas!
Cool carbon paper for making copies from years ago!
Great ideas. hit mirror image before printing when there are names. They all came out great
It's much easier to take the entire hippo paper, put it on your project, then just slide the backing from underneath. This prevents any tearing or wrinkling.
Wonderful!!!😊
Here's a tip: they are called "water slide decals" because you are supposed to bring the decal on the backing to the object, and sliiide it onto your object, not try to pick up the decal film out of the water, you can easily tear them and distort them.
If you pick up the backing AND decal out of the water you can position it where you want it and slide the backing out from under it
cute ideas. Will make nice gifts
Hi, I like that, thank you for sharing.
I really loved these ideas.
I got so many ideas! 😍🥰 You're awesome!
Love these diys… question.., does the type of printer you use make a difference.. or will any printer work?
Brilliant!!
Super cute ways to preserve artwork!! Any ideas on how to get these images printed on transfer paper if you do not own a printer (or know anyone who does)?
Great idea ! So cute ! also for bday s or Xmas gift , perfect 👍🏼 Tks on tips . 😃💕
I wish my dollar store carried these how lucky you are and fantastic by the way.
Such a fun sweet idea😘🤩😍
Such cute ideas 💡
I love the mug with the art on it! It would be neat to get a bunch of matching plain mugs and do an entire set with your child’s art. Of course then it would be much more upsetting if one broke! Maybe a good idea would be to make doubles of each just in case. Lol.
I’ve also seen people frame their child’s art really nicely with beautiful frames and patterned matting behind the art, Then make a gallery wall with that and favourite photos and anything that’s a personal memory, like some field flowers your child picked for you while on a nature walk, flatten and dry them in a book then get two matching frames and secure the flat, dry flowers between the two pieces of glass in one frame. It’s a beautiful look! And a great way to save something special. Or if your child has a favourite cartoon character or story or game, print off a neat screen shot of it you can find online and frame that. Actually my daughter would have an extremely hard time letting go of old toys, every single craft she’d make, clothes she’d grow out of, old bicycles, plastic toddler dishes, every single stuffed animal (she still has the MOST special ones, I’m not heartless, but they sure add up and take up so much space as most parents know.) literally hundreds of rocks she’d collect from walks along the lake (actually those could be used for a rock garden or in potted plants), she’d get personally attached to these things. So because I didn’t want to end up on an episode of hoarders, or make her feel like I didn’t care, or have her cry about it for the entire day or longer (i’m not even exaggerating)......So I had the idea that we could donate the items for another little kid to enjoy but keep the memory of the object by taking a photo, which totally worked to help her let go! (and tbh she’d usually forget all about it after she took the photos anyway). I think she was mainly bothered by the feeling of things she cared about not being appreciated, so just the acknowledgment of her feelings, that the items were worthwhile and the memories important to her (to give it to another child and then the token photo farewell), was what helped her emotionally cope with letting go. But it would have been neat to also make a collage or something of those photos or send them out and have them made into one of those books of photo memories! Something small she could keep forever if she wanted, to look through and remember the things she enjoyed as a child. I wish I still had all of those photos, it would have been a great gift, to give to her, now as an adult, one of those photo “coffee table” books, as well as add in some favourite photos of childhood trips to the cottage, or the nature walks etc. I know she’d absolutely cherish it! And now with a grown up perspective, she’d also appreciate that it wouldn’t take up nearly as much space as if she’d literally kept everything! I really hope someone with a young child reads this and can help their child who has trouble letting things go and then will one day surprise them with a beautiful photo book of all of their child’s favourite memories of special childhood toys, crafts, adventures, friends (that’s another huge one I forgot to mention! Its so hard on kids when a friend moves away...), and of course pets are a huge one as well! Just imagine how cool that would be for them to eventually share those memories with their children and then do the same for their children, and have generations of beautiful coffee table photo books full of special memories for the family to share together.
I'm glad you can get this from a Dollar store...... Poundland is a joke in the UK this has been done for years you can get people to do this on eBay not too expensive either
Beautiful 😍
Good job 👍 ❤️
Very creative.
Very informative. I love your ideas! I need a cheap idea on how to transfer a copier image to a piece of silver sheet metal, so I can cut it out.
gee, we used to call 'transfer' paper carbon paper and we used it in a typewriter to make a duplicate letter lol
Mod Podge would've worked really well here
DARLING.....❤❤❤
Have never seen wooden cutting boards at my DT.
I haven’t seen this. Granted, since DT went up to $1.25, I really haven’t been in there but I’ll look.
Check a couple different stores, if you have that option. Some of our stores sell out more quickly than others. I bought a couple at our DT 2 years ago, using one for veggies, the other for fruits when I'm not cutting enough to need my large,heavy wooden boards. They're thin, but well-made. Can serve sliced onion and sliced tomatoes for sandwiches right on the boards. I use perm marker to denote in the corner whether the board is for fruits or veggies.
An interesting video for these products. I might have titled it ’how to capture an image on a DT cutting board’ it was a little misleading.
That is awesome
I absolutely LOVE your daughter's name !!!
Beautiful
I just need cheap wood supplies so thanks for the pipe line.
NEAT !
