Gina K has often mentioned that she has problems with her wrist and it was difficult to push down hard on her stamp positioner. A friend of hers named Chuck make the original Chucky tool and sent it to her to take the pressure off het wrist and hand. Gina’s subscribers asked that Chuck make more to sell. He wasn’t interested in making and selling them so he provided directions for making one like the original. Not surprisingly, a lot of Etsy shop owners started making and selling them. Gina dubbed it the ‘Chucky tool’ after her friend, the inventor.
Thank you. I had added a tiny bit of info about that in my video description, after some viewers had commented about it. You have quite a bit of info on it! I will pin your comment to the top!
Where can you find the directions? I just found Gina K Designs. Newbie.
Well Chuck was not her friend, just a subscriber and a very nice man (to make this for someone) 😉
@@jeanjarvis4036 defenately not her husband, that is Tom/thom, her husband
@@jeanjarvis4036 Nope. Tom is Gina's husband. Chuck is a close friend.
The Chuckie tool was designed by Chuck Meadows, Gina K’s friend, and sent to Gina K for her to use since she has neuropathy in her hands due to her diabetes. I love your design with the shaker bits...very cute!
yup. I have that mentioned under my video thanks to my viewers like you who are on top of it! :) Thanks :)
I must be living under a rock! I had never heard of a Chucky tool before this video. I love your take on the DIY and I'll be making one for myself.
"I don't have a Misti nor do I want one - for personal reasons." It may or not be for the same reasons, but I feel the same way.
Thank you for sharing your talents with us!
there is an almost cult-like following for the MISTI, and it would be easy for some to get offended that I don't want one :)
hi i just found your account through this video and i clapped when i saw your tim holtz platform and i clapped even harder when you said you don’t want the misti!! ❤❤❤❤ instant follow!!
Epic! :) You gave me a smile this morning. Thanks for subbing!
YAY! This is a cool one! I believe the first person that I saw use the Chucky tool was Gina K. and one her subscribers sent it to her. After that it became all the rage. Her's is wooden. I can't wait to make mine with what I can find ideal around my house. Lisa from King rubber stamps made a light up one with a candle lid, it's cool too. Thank you so much for bringing your very well made version to us with a great tutorial!
So cool! a light up one! wow!
A friend of mine sent me this link this morning. I have got to try this out TODAY!!!! TFS!
Awesome! You have a great friend ;)
Awesome project! Sounds like Chuckie would've saved my fingers with all that stamping I used to do!
yes! I'm so used to struggling that it seems a way of life, but then I remember my Chuckie, and every time I use it, I'm sooo glad!
Shaker bits is such a great idea! I’ve seen someone glue glitter ✨ on the inside of the lid too...I like your see through version with shaker bits! 🎉 ❤️ 🎊
Thanks so much! 😊 I like the interaction, because I adore shakers!
When I made mine I used one of my circle nesting dies and my Gemini to cut out the circles, it worked great.
perfect!
So glad I saw this! I almost threw 2 glass lids just like this away!!!!! Sandy ❤
Phew! That was close! :)
You’re a genius! THANK YOU for this!
You're welcome! I still love mine!
I found this very ironic! I just made one last week! It has truly been helpful so far! I made one with the old yankee candle lid and one with the newest lid! They both work nicely!
great to hear!
I'm so excited to have found this video! I have terrible hand pain, so I've spent the morning investigating how to make my own DIY platform tool for my Stamparatus. I love, Love, LOVE the idea of making this into a shaker! Shakers are my favorite thing to make, and I can't believe it never crossed my mind to incorporate it into the press tool! You made my day! 🤗
You got this! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Lolly, I really enjoyed watching you demonstrate .
It is just what i need I have been ha ING trouble with my hand as I now have what they call a trigger finger here in Australia.
A couple of fingers click and freeze and make it nearly impossible to use my hand. So this would be a blessing, will have to start drinking coffee. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Funny. As soon as I looked at my glass candle top months ago, I too did this same thing but I also added a layer of felt. Love the bling💖💖💖
yay! Enjoy!
Like you I have been getting these "chucky" DIY videos recommended quite often. Thanks for sharing. Don't need one at this time but glad I watched.
thanks for watching!
I’m going to try this. I like the shaker much better than the painted one. Thank you Lilly 💝
You’re welcome 😊 Have fun!
This technique is far superior to my “trial and error” effort that I made this last week. It turned out ok and is cute and useable, but was far more labor than what you just demonstrated! Thank you for a better way!
awesome! Glad to help :)
This is cool. It would be good also if you don't have a stamp positioner , especially for a large back ground stamp, you could ink the stamp, place it ink side up, put your paper down on top & then run the Chuckie tool over it. Thanks Lolly!!
Thanks for watching!
I don't have any glass lid but I do have have a CORK lid from a broken jar, it's smooth and 3.5 inches in diameter. Can't wait to give it a try.
Have fun!
this is awsome. like this one better than all the ones I've seen! Thank you for sharing.
Wow, thank you!
Love the shaker idea! So colorful
Thanks so much! 😊
I love your DIY Chuckie tools Lolly! So very Cute! I may make some for friends, since I already ordered one.
awesome! Love hearing it.
These are so pretty.Thanks for sharing.
Glad you like them!
I love this idea! So cool!
Thank you! 😊 I never thought I "needed" one, but now I use it all the time!
What a lovely idea, Lolly! Thanks for sharing
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching
Hi Lolly . I searched TH-cam for a tutorial on how to make this tool , and your video came up . I should have known to check here first ! Thank you for sharing this tutorial. I just have to get some of that furniture protector, I have everything else. How awesome to find such a neat tool that requires such little material . I have carpal tunnel in both wrists so this will be a game changer for me. Still a Peep 🐣🐥 ….and love the 🦙! Happy Crafting
Glad it was helpful! I didn't even think I needed one of these tools until I had one! Now I use it all the time!
That’s an absolutely fabulous idea! I will be making one ASAP. Thank you very much 🤗
Have fun!
Love your version. I like the shaker idea.
Thank you! 😊
Love this especially with the shaker bits
thank you!
Love the shaker bits! A unique take.
Thank you! Cheers!
Oh my goodness! I looove your version. I need to make one of these! Thanks for the demo and inspiration! Hugs Janice
Go for it! Enjoy!
This is terrific, I thought it was awesome, I had thought of that floor scuff preventer.. I love the shaker stuffs in the clear glass. Awesome! Thank you.
Thanks so much!
Hi Lolly...Good video! I happened to be in Target, remembered your tutorial and found a deep lid candle and made a Chuckie tool right away. I LOVE it! It is so helpful with a stamp positioned tool. Thank you!
perfect! Thanks for watching
Great idea - gotta make one - thank you for sharing!!!
Have fun!
What a great diy!!! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much, I really like it ..Have a Beautiful Blessed Day Full of Happiness and Sunshine!!
Thank you! You too!
Thank you Lolly for this great tutorial, it was my afternoon project today and has turn out to be lovely. I used the stopper from a jar of Dow Eggberts coffee - so I also get to drink the coffee :)
Wonderful!
Good idea! I did one with the cable lid and also with a door knob. They both came out really nice. Thanks
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow, so cute and great idea ❤️
Thank you! 😊
It's a bit off-topic but I've found that the candle jar lids are really good for stamping, as I struggle with arthritis in my hands and wrists, and can't always manage even pressure with the acrylic blocks.
My first view of the Chucky tool was on Justine's site, but her's had a different name. Again, with my hands not having a lot of strength, I've been trying to find something similar, so thank you for the tutorial.
I have the same stamping platform as you, I like it a lot, and it was half the price of the Misti.
Stamping tool -- EXACTLY! The first time I ever heard of a MISTI, I saw the price and choked. That was back before there were any add-ons, accessories, etc. I thought $70 for that piece of plastic was ridiculous, and I thought I would wait for her to lower the price, which she didn't. Tim's was better and less expensive. Sorry about your hands!
@@LollyPalooza Thank you. I really appreciate any help I can find to make my day to day stuff easier, and less painful to manage. 😀
Hey Lolly! I love your “LOLLY TOOL”! Well done! I have also had recommendations for the Chuckle tool also! Yours looks just lovely! Added bonus...the Lolly Tool sounds great to me! Thank you for the tutorial!
Oh thank you!
Love this...I’m making one today!
Have fun!
Very creative Lolly. Also, your design is pretty and sparkly. I may try to make one. Thanks for the great video.
Thank you! 😊
Once again...Lolly to the rescue. This is brilliant! I'm going to make one tonight.
Yay! Have fun!
Oh my days !! Lolly this is so cool I need to make one of these for sure.xx
Thank you! It's such fun to even play with. I am going to make more as paper weights and weights to hold down projects that need to dry! :)
Thank you Lolly, this will help my hands so much.. Now off to see if I can get a candle with these lids just because I love the shaker so much..
Glad it was helpful!
Love this idea Lolly, thank you for sharing
You are so welcome!
Great idea with the shaker elements I have candle lids I will make one
enjoy!
This is such a great idea! Thank you 😊!!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
@@LollyPalooza 😊❤️
I've been using a blackboard eraser, but going to make one of these. Thanks for the tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
I didn't have access to a candle jar lid since our dollar store doesn't carry those , So I got one of the lemon juice glasses from the dollar store and used that period I really wanted a rounded Something for my hand and the bottom of the glass was great it's tall but it works well. As a few people have said Gina K I believe was the 1st one to show 1 and it was made by her friend Chuck so she called it a chuckie. I saw someone post that historically an ink ball or dabber was used in print making in a similar way.
Yes, I added info about Gina K's friend under the video. I hadn't heard of the printing tool (Baron Tool) until viewers started mentioning it. Lots of options :)
I love it Lolly , what a fab idea especially the shaker . Tfs :)
Thanks so much 😊
Wow this is brilliant. I have my Douwe Egberts coffee lid in mind for the job👍😄
Hope you enjoy it!
Lolly. Thank you so much for that tutorial. I was asking my husband to do one, but after seeing this video, I can definitely do it myself. I especially love that you made it into a shaker. How fun is that? The funny part is that I never thought to use the top of a candle. Oh my Goodness. So easy and so convenient since I have candles in my house.🤪😜 Tfs. God Bless and be safe. 🤗🤗🤗
P.S. The first person who I saw using this type of tool was mom2create. Hers was the first video I saw of this tool. Then afterwards everyone started making their own.
She wasn't the first though. The first person was Gina K Designs -- one of her viewers made her one. :)
@@LollyPalooza Oh! Ok. I didn't know that.😄 Thanks🙋♀️
Well thank you thank you!!!! I already spied a candle that is losing her lid!!!😺😺😺
yay! :) Keep the candle jar, too. When the candle is all burned up, the jar makes a great holder for the Chucky tool
So funny. Never heard of a chuckie tool but now I must have one! Lol. And I have a cotton ball jar with a lid like that already knocking around my work bench. It is too small to collect items but it is such a weighty object it just seemed like it had to be useful. Thanks for the cool idea.
sounds great!
I made mine similar. I used the lids from a dollar tree glass container...used art glitter glue inside (with a paint brush) and fine glitter, 2 layers. Then I use thick stencil blanks cut into a circle and those floor felt pads.
nice to know Dollar Tree has them
That’s a pretty cool trick. Hmmmm. I may have to get one of those.
have fun!
Súper. Fantastico
thank you!
Brilliant! ❤❤❤
thanks a bunch!
Great video thank you for sharing. BTW...those Melaleuca candles smell DIVINE! Now I need to go snag the lids off my mama's candles hahaha
perfect! I looked, and Mela has changed their candle lids to flat metal ones now. So sad.
Barens have been used in linoprinting for a long time I think. The Chuckie tool is just a home-made version of those.
The first 'Chuckie' was made by Gina K's neighbour and friend Chuck (hence the name) for Gina.
Yes, I have Gina K's friend credited in the video description :)
Hi Lolly beautiful Chucky tool
You are so kind
Actually Julie Fei-Fan Balzer has been using a Baron Tool for years, I bought mine on Amazon before the interest it is made by Speedball. Great video though. I glue adhesive to adhesive quite often and it works pretty good. Thank you.
thanks for watching. Adhesive-to-adhesive depends on what adhesives are being used.
Nice! Thanks so much for sharing 😍💕💕
My pleasure 😊 Thank you for watching :)
Fantastic
Thank you so much 😀
Those are very cool....I have some replacement covers for furniture movers that are very fuzzy. I'm going to see if I can find something to fit in it or try my hand inside....
Good luck!
Brilliant!
thanks!
Awesome video!!!!!! Thanks
many thanks!
Ma'am, thank you for this!
Glad it was helpful!
Love this😻
thank you!
I made mine out of a air puk and felt on tge bottom. Works perfectly
Yes, I mention in the video that air hocky paddles work great
They are as pretty as they seem beneficial. This could also be used as a ‘Baren’, (a tool for book making). Very smart, thank you.
I've heard that. Some call it a baron and some say baren. I wonder if it's based on where we live, as different countries spell certain words differently
Cool idea TFS 😊💓
thank you!
Hi Lolly! I just made one from your video. I'll try it tomorrow after the glue gets almost 24 hours of dry/cure time. I used Weldbond to glue white cardboard to glass. I hope that holds.
I haven't tried it, but I think it should work!
Thank you for sharing this! I don’t have a stamp board thingy but I’m thinking I’ll adapt it somehow to use with my gelli plate! I’ve seen people using what they call a baron (sp. ?) (Berrin?). Anyway I think I can adapt the ‘Chucky’ tool! Thank you for sharing!
Yes, the baron is what this was fashioned after. Good luck :)
This is an AWESOME idea! Kudos to Chuck for such a cool creation!! I know that I have glass candle lids. But...I wonder if regular felt could work? Maybe glue a couple of layers together?
Thanks for the demo, Lolly!
💟 ~Suzy
I use a layer of fun foam then glue reg felt to it n it so work I got a stamping block that got a bulid in handle which I buy at dollar tress yrs ago. I end up just adding the fun foam n felt layer glue to it.
@@creativekat109 that's good to know about the fun foam, as I do have plenty of that. Thank you! 🙂
if gluing layers of felt together, you might want to use Beacon's felt glue or Fabri-tac
@@LollyPalooza oh good idea! Thanks Lolly!!
The original "Chucky Tool" was made by a friend named Chuck for Gina K of Gina K Designs.
Thank you. My viewers are on top of things! :)
I have a candle lid I was going to get rid of, but now I am going to make this,
ooh! Hold onto that! :)
🤣we must've seen the same video.....I have my husband cutting a round piece of wood right now....Mr La Vie....is being put to work 😆🤣....ooooo I like your index ring☝️
That is awesome! The index ring is from a company called Ann Voyage. I get a lot of comments about it! You can search her website for "heart ring"
this is a great shaker tool idea if i find a lid i make one too but i own a stamping block from dollar tress yrs ago with a build in handle n just add fun foam n glue on felt as well n that work great too. I guess I can try to look into to my townhouse dumpster bin when I throwing out my garbage if I can find any lid lol n j/k
ha! You're great! I'm going to go to the thrift store, too!
@@LollyPalooza that will work too . my mom just told me she see those glass with lid at the dollar tree store. I will go to my nearest one n try my luck too.
The jars of Moccona coffee are perfect for this, I only I needed to add the felt circle
nice to know!
Well isn't that cute and nifty! And I've never heard of these either. I'll have to look for some jar lids lol. TFS
thank you! I went to the thrift store and will do a video of other lids you can use!
You can get these same types of lids at Dollar Tree
@@stamperssecret5379 I saw them at mine, but they were so tiny.
I used supplies from Dollar Tree--I think it cost me about $3 (the tools are close to $40!). The "felt" from DT was terrible quality, so I cut up some mole skin I had in the hall closet and it works like a dream! I love the idea using shaker bits---I used glitter.
I bet mole skin does work great! Yes, I imagine Dollar Tree felt is woefully lacking!
I made those with yankee candle covers
Because they look like a knob 😉 and easier to hold
They are easier to hold for sure. They are pretty deep. Might need extra shaker bits?
So cool, i think Jina K or someone she knows came up with that tool. I need to make one for myself too.
Yes, one of Gina K's viewers made one and sent it to her. :) Apparently his name was Chuck?
@@LollyPalooza yes
Great idea, I'm going to make one. Do you think Terry cloth might work too. Thx for sharing
Might work for what? Instead of the felt pad? Not unless you back it up with heavy cardboard.
@@LollyPalooza I just a round perfect piece of cork. I think I will try that instead
Quick question....can I apply the felt on the opposite side( wider side) and just use a clear topper to the smaller side to see the shaker. I'm thinker you'll have a wider coverage and a better grip.
Up to you, depending on the specific lids you are using.
In the UK a Dowe Egberts coffee jar lid would work the same
great!
Yes! I keep the jars because they're so nice in their own right, and if I wanted to buy one, it would cost much the same. I buy my coffee at B&M, or Home Bargains, as it's a couple of pounds cheaper than Asda or other supermarkets. I use some of the jars for pasta and rice, or storing other things, and I also use them with pillar candles. The glass itself is no different, as far as I can tell, from the official candle jars, and none have ever cracked. 🌻
Can you store the lid back on the jar? The shaker decoration would make beautiful storage jar.
sure! It fits in the jar with that plastic ring around it, and we took the ring off! Excellent idea. Kudos!
When you started making this, I thought you would have used the flat side of the glass for the sliding part, as that would have given smooth, even pressure to the entire surface as opposed to only the circle ring edges of the other side. If this works, I guess that's ok. Personally, I find that positioning the stamp on the platform door near the center or an edge gives a better impression as it allows the door to flex more readily than at an edge which doesn't have the same amount of "give". Your end product is very cute, though.
thanks for watching
Michaels brand jar candles had these tops.....on their jar candles.
nice to know!
I can't find the lemon sparkle mix in your shop. Are you sold out?
Thanks for this lovely project. I just got the stamp positioner tool, and *need* a chuckie tool!!
here it is www.lollypaloozacrafts.com/products/Shaker-Elements-by-Dress-My-Crafts-Choose-Shape/864571057 you will need to then choose the style you want.
@@LollyPalooza The sprinkles are lovely! And I had an easy shopping experience on your shop site. The survey wouldn't download, somehow, but I just want you to know how happy I am that I can make a chuckie like yours! (Some of the candles at Wal Mart have glass lids like you used.)
Do you use any type of conditioner type tools on your new stamps? I have worked my fingers to the bone stamping over and over using the Tim Holtz stamping platform often never coming close to a crisp, clear stamped image. What’s the best stamping ink I’m in the US. I don’t have one of these chunky type tools yet. Thank you for your informative videos…
Versafine black
I have used Versafine black, Lawn Fawn Essentials black, and Tonic Studios black ink, too. All have worked well.. It also matters that with a brand new stamp you'll have to stamp several times before it actually starts giving clear images.
@@LollyPalooza I buy well known brand stamps Tonic, Altenew, Spellbinders, etc I have the tim holtz stamp platform. I've stamped 1 stamp over and over 5-10 times without anywhere near clear crisp image results. Ive given up so many times for months at a time then go back and try again and again so frustrating... thank you for your help, your thoughts...
@@darleneroach2848 I had a lot of trouble with the Tim Holtz stamping platform. I finally bought a Misty platform and have had much better results. I like most Tim Holtz products, but not this one!
@@sentimentsbysue8438 The Tim Holtz platform has been my main problem! Wonder if the we r memory keepers stamping platform has problems? The Misty is so much higher, don’t think the small misty would work for me.
Well, if I can make a shaker Chuckie, then I might just need to make one.
:) It's a shaker! of COURSE you need to make one :)
The Chuckie tool is a really interesting little device! I love your two DIYs. what is your stamp press that you are using? I could not find it in your favorites list.
🐝🐝🐝
Ah. Well, the reason is that it's no longer available in the US and is out of stock in the UK. It's the Tim Holtz stamping platform. He was sued by the maker of the MISTI and forced to remove his platform off the US market. Well, anyone who has remaining stock is allowed to sell them off, but Tim cannot manufacture more for the US. I found them on Amazon, though! amzn.to/3wqLtB9
Thanks for the link; I have added it to my cart. I have another stamping thing that I think it’s from Fisker‘s but I have been unable to make that thing work for me.
@@gailagilliland3268 thank you. If you are unable to purchase it today, then if you don't mind, remove it from your cart and put it in when you're ready to check out. We don't get credit after 24 hours of it going in your cart. :(
@@LollyPalooza
I did not know about the 24 hour thing so I will remove it and come back to your page here to order it.
@@LollyPalooza I didn’t know this, thank you for saying this!
Gina K. Designs on You Tube!
yup. I've added that info under the video :)
Hi Lolly! The original Chucky tool originated from “Gina K’s” friend, Chuck. I’m sorry I do not remember his last name but he made her one for her to use and it has taken off like a rocket with different designs being made to do what it is intended to do. There are so so many. His is made with a wooden curtain finial, I believe along with the felt slider that is already sized for the finial. I made one for myself like his which fits me better because I had surgery on my hand and it is sized perfect for me... It’s higher than the candle type. You can check with Gina for his name for more details. He really should market his. Hope this helps. (It is on a video of hers that I saw live over the last 3 months when she told this but I couldn’t find it when I searched back, sorry!)
thank you for the info. I kept finding her name associated with it, but I couldn't locate any info other than that.
Chuck Meadows
@@LollyPalooza Lolly -- Gina K's friend is Chuck Meadows.
