- This video tutorial is a very in depth look at how I make my String art. I chose to include all the little tips I have learned the hard way. There isn’t much woodworking involved, but they make great gifts for younger ladies and they are my most requested type of wedding gift. Hope it helps!

Perhaps the best "how to" video I've seen yet. Great job and thanks!
+Ryan Hendricks thank you very much ryan 🙏🏼
This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection th-cam.com/users/postUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
By far the best tutorial on nail string art. A lot of the other videos try to teach it in under 3 min. Thank you for your great video!
Oddly enough, I was about to do 2 of these as gifts, and when i saw your IG post, I decided to wait for you video. Thanks man for the tips!
This video helped me start my string art business 👏🏽 Can't thank you enough💪🏽💛
Awe you’re the best. Thank you. This has been the most helpful tutorial so far.
Thank you so much....this way of threading makes it look a lot more intricate...
Awesome❣️👍🏼 I love the idea of having the yarn extended from above 😊 wow making it so much easier to work with ❣️❣️❣️❣️ thanks for the tips and video ❣️👍🏼😊
Perfect tutorial. Very easy to see and understand. I especially like that you has an error and were able to show us that it was no big deal.
We are about to try our first string art project and this being the first video I watched, I seriously doubt we will need to look for any more. Great video!
I've done a couple of these before. I love your idea of having a eye hook above your work area to hold the string I will have to do that.
I just do simple words like Welcome, Home, Love and so on so I have one temple per word and reuse it.
Awesome job on yours.
Most detailed version I’ve seen. Thank you
Nice! Still have my childhood string art! Great job!
Something different but stands out! good job! thanks
Never seen this done so well. I didnt like the string art until I saw this. Great job! Im going to try one.
I love the hope and tricks! Super laid back and straight to the point! My type of guy... Subscribiiiing now
I have seen several videos on making string art and none of them can compare to yours. Love all the tips! Beautiful result 😍
This reminds me of rubber bands and shapes in elementary. I loved how it turned out!
Watched your video and knocked my first one out of the park. Thanks!
Best tutorial still! Thanks for the detail!
Thank you for making the video. It will be my first time. Your detailed info and helpful hints were the best I have watched. I appreciate all you did to help explain it. 🌺
So glad I found your video. Never heard of string art before. Will definitely be trying this. You stayed on topic and and kept me entertained the entire time. Didn't even realize it was an 18 minute video!! Great job. Subscribed.
+weston0614 thank you!!
Looks awesome Mike!!!! You do good work man!!
Damn... that’s cool. Such patience. Looks awesome.
Very cool. I will have to try this. Thanks for sharing.
Hey! It is one of the best I have seen! I specially like the vintage touch of the wood!
Wow!! Great job and nice tutorial! Glad you used yarn because I have a lot of that! Thanks!!
“The ladies love em” lol cute 💕
Thank you sooooo much for showing us this video! Alot of 'sting-art' videos state that there is NO method to the madness (as one quoted). They looks super messy when they were done. You actually have a method to the string art madness. Your finished string art is beautiful! It is clean, has straight lines and doesn't look crappy. Some uploaders were using crochet cotton which is super thin ( the string used to crochet doilies). I wonder what bulky yarn would look like... I don't think I would get a beginning and ending outline including the filler, with the size of nail u used, lol! I would need a 2" nail! It would probably look great on a huge sign tho. Tfs!
Great job, told me everything I needed to know
Clear and concise. Helpful. Thanks.
Thanks seems like a cool project to start. Looks great
Thanks for sharing. You made it seem so simple.
Genuinely enjoyed how realistic this was. I've been wanting to try string art, but after seeing how similar the process is to that time I made a geoboard (and hated every second of it), I'm thinking this probably isn't the project for me!
Thanks for sharing.. looking forward to trying my first piece.
Awesome tutorial! Great job! ❤❤❤
You are a FABULOUS teacher. Thank you so much...I have always wanted to do this, string art....now I am 68 and retired and I can get right into it. You must have been doing this for a long time...you are very good. Thanks for sharing. This is my husbands "email" We haven't quite figured out how to do a separate email for me...I hope I see more of your creatations....sincerely, Linda
Back again to watch this for another project. I miss Mike so much!!
Wow that looks so good!
To save ink in making your stencil AND make the font wider, add a thin outline in light gray and then change your text to white. Your final result will look like a pencil outline of your letters. You will know EXACTLY where to place the nails.
jimbobaroobud yea I was wondering why he didn’t do that lol
I actually didn’t think of that even though it is blatantly obvious. Thanks
Thank you for that suggestion.
Can you help me with the font style used?
I asked you because you seem to be a computer whizz.
Thanking you in anticipation
he didnt do it because this is preschool art and his little mind doesnt know how
@@Enviousttv Wow, that was a nasty little comment.
love it! Great job.
Wow! Beautiful and well explained👍
Beautiful!
Great video. I learned a lot thank you.
Good job man. Have to try this once..
I'm having Vacation Bible School kids do this project in a cross shape next week! Cant wait!
That looks awesome!
Beautifully done!!!
Great thing u made ❤️❤️
Awesome dude 🙌
Great tutorial, thank you.
dear god I wish I had seen this month's ago. I'm using 3874 nails (not actually) doing small pieces..like 10x10-12" and it takes me a lifetime. and haven't had a technique for outlining. creating shortcut to this vid on desktop lol thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this! I recently started trying out string art. I seem to have issues keeping my nails straight. The last time I tried one, half of them were straight up and down, then half of them ended up angled just a bit so I gave up on it. Any tips?
nice recovery the mark of excellence. Nice job
Cool idea dude. I think I'm gonna make this voor my eldest kid too.
I'm making this type of thing for the pops. Thanks so much for the guide!
Great video!
Great art...
That was really helpful thank you i want to try and do something like that for my nephew and i wanted to ask you what thickness is the wood you are using and nail length please ?
Thanks for sharing❤
zing zing amazing!!
Awesome ❤😊
Amazing 😍
my classmates and I want to make a tree for our teacher.
and this vedio was very helpful thank you sir
Very nice string art i love art
Hi ! I have the same scissor and good work !👍🏻😍😃😊
This is the best string art video I've seen, thank you! What type of wood would you suggest using? Also you sound like Ron Swanson, it's awesome!
Thanks for the great tutorial! What kind of wood is that? I know you said cedar, but what do I ask for at the store? Sorry if I missed it in the video
Love your Video!! Great job... May I ask what size font you used? I’m in the process of making one similar and need a little advice. Thank you
great work
Hey Mike, might be embarking on the string art journey soon! this video was a great intro. Should I be worried about splitting wood with all those nails? Is predrilling holes a waste of time?
ahhhhhhhmazing!
Awesome
Awesome 😎
Do you do any signs of pictures? Like doing your logo? That would be pretty cool. Thanks for the tips.
Adam Comfort i have not yet but i plan on doing my logo soon!
Hei this vedio is very helpful for me... please upload more vedios about wood and string art step by step ideas or trick's for beginners.
Pretty straight forward project but looks nice anyway. One question: Could you use spray glue or spray paint at the finished project, so when it gets dry you could get rid of the nails and the board? I am thinking of seperate letters filled with an led strip and would like to know if this method could be used for this task. Thanks beforehand and keep up the nice work
A nice idea indeed. I was thinking of LEDs too actually. I think you could either spray-paint (or glue) the whole thing. You can also try using a mix of vinylic glue and water, and "paint" the strings with a brush with it.
Hi your video is very helpful.thanks
Great job, would you mind giving the name of the font you used?
THX
How do you make the stencil ? On MS paint mine doesn’t want to work with that font
What kinda string is better to use? Which thread is easy to clean and dust?
Thank you
the best artwork for Slow children.
Faça com legendas se possível, estou assistindo do Brasil 💚💛
I am making a going away gift for a friend who is moving. Do you have any recommendations to about wrap 12x12 square plaques of string art?
Hi Mike, when you run out of thread, how do you hide the attachment? ok you answered my question, one letter at a time.
thank you nice job
Well you sure are highly motivated... 😂 But great tutorial, thank you!
That was Awesome! I feel I could attempt something like that. Do you get Cedar tongue and groove and then stain it? Could you use stained or distressed pine?
Tekton Wood Design i’ve used pine but it’s slightly harder to nail into i think. This was actually the fake distressed cedar shiplap that they sell at home depot. I didn’t have time to stain and distress my own on this job, so i went the easy route haha.
Mad Raven Woodworks Either way works!! I'm thinking family signs for Christmas for my sisters and sibling in-laws.
+Tekton Wood Design this is actually cedar shiplap straight from home depot. Had to do it in a rush. I typically used okd cedar fencing but was fresh out. I also distress pine.
Did you paint the nails after they were all nailed in, during the jump cut? If so, what do you use?
From start to finish, how long did it take? I have had people ask me to do this for them. Until now I really didn't have a clue where to start. Thank you for the video!
can you please give me the name of the font you used? this is so cool btw
فن جميل حقيقي 👍😍
Do you spray with a sealant or anything afterward to keep the yarn from getting dirty or is getting dirty part of the aging effect or doesn't it matter either way?
No
That's so rad
I like 😍
Such a great video! Thank you for sharing! I have a few questions. Do you use Paint 3D, Paint Universal, or another version? What size font are you using for your template in this project? I think that is all! lol
First time on your channel and I have to say you’re a very attractive guy. Seeing a guy doing something like this is oddly attractive to me... I didn’t know until now lmao.
Do you have a link for the wood
How do you set up the text on the paint page? Add a textbox? What size font did you use?
Bobby Hopkins I also want to know
I remember you saying what type of wood your using. But now it’s slipped my mind and can’t find the part when u said it lol.
What type of wood do u use?
Great job by the way! Started doing string art and ur method is by far the nicest!
