Tobie turns a piece of driftwood into a beautiful piece of art. She will show you how to upcycle driftwood from the the process of cleaning and the various tools used. She will then show you the process of sealing the wood to end up with art that can be hung on the wall, set in the garden, or a tabletop planter with succulents and air plants. Enjoy the humor and fun with the girls as they create this piece of art.
Where do I start…This is the best! I’ve always had a love for wood myself. Every piece is different and needs to be handled with appreciation and love. It’s definitely apparent that you have the wabi sabi. Keep up the great work! Can’t wait for more of these.
Right on Noland! Tobie did an amazing job and we look forward to sharing more designs in the future. Thank you for watching.
Tobie seems to have a good grip on wood working. Thank you for sharing this! Sealing the wood was new to me and crucial it seems? You have a great wood eye.
Thanks for watching! We appreciate the kind words and support.

Hello Rogerio, thank you for watching our video. It is fun to see other creative projects and learn from each other. Have a Gourd.geous Day!
Fantastic Tobie Lee❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Wendy, Tobie is learning fast how to edit videos. Much to do and much to learn but having fun.
I keep my driftwood natural with no sanding. However, I like the driftwood to be a vintage faded whitish- grey colour, not dark brown, so I apply a watered down driftwood paint in uneven strokes. It soon looks like an ancient driftwood piece bleached naturally by the sun. I get so many positive comments on my pieces when done this way.
Hello Rose B. Thank you so much for sharing your creative idea. I love when people collaborate and share ideas so we can all learn and be inspired by each other. Have a Gourd.geous Day!
@@gourd-geousgals5674 Thanks!
In my place, there are lots of wood scraps like that, if you are here there will be many new ideas that can be developed.
Thanks for the comments and for watching!
Loved the video! You did amazing
Glad you liked it!! We are having fun learning so much but so much more to learn. Come back next Friday for a new project. Thank you
Entertaining. Off color humor. Realism. Wood. All good things.
Thank you for watching our video. We are so glad you enjoyed it and look forward to you returning. Have a gourd-geous day.
You’re adorable ! (don’t worry, I’m not some creepy dude … I’m just a regular Mom)
I think you’re doing a great job!
It’s much better than watching the heavily scripted video’s that’s for sure !
As for your wood project … I never knew that drift wood took that amount of work to prepare !
I absolutely love the look of driftwood !
I also love the shape of your wood choice and it turned out beautifully !
Will you be getting into designing things with several pieces ?
Thanks so much,

Hello Julie, Thank you for your kind words and encouragement! We have been working on more projects and hope to have them posted soon. We are in no way professionals, just believe in having fun and appreciate you enjoying our odd sense of humor. Tobie loves working with driftwood because each piece is so unique so you will never find another that's the same. Have a Gourd.geous Day!
Love it... Love the detailed video
You can also use sanding tool like a portable one with battery to get into smaller areas.
Hello Mark, Thank you for the additional tip. We are so glad you enjoyed the video and the details Tobie included. We have lots of fun when we get together to record the various videos we post. Have a gourd-geous day.
Murphy's soap helps to take of the rotten or soft wood, it realy helps 🤗
Hello Hazel, thank you for watching our channel. We appreciate the suggestions, we use Murphy's soap for al lot of things, it is a great product. Have a Gourd-geous day!
Very informative video, thanks. You mention using steel wool, but in the video, you were using sandpaper. Did you also use steel wool on that piece?
Thank you for watching our video and asking a great question. I did use steel wool but unfortunately, it was edited out. In our video "Driftwood with Air Plants" at time stamp 9:33, you can see I am using steel wool after sanding to soften the finish. Thank you again for posting a comment and have a Gourd.geous Day.
I do similar things and nice to see you not using power tools like many people do. By hand is by hand, not by b. Noisy power tools.
Thank you, Bruce, for the support. We love to do things by hand, but we also like to use power tools when appropriate. Thank you so much for watching our video. Have a gourd-geous day.
Nice job dear....
Thank you for your kind words. Have a gourd-geous day!
Teeth getters 😂
Isn't she funny. Hope you join us again on Friday. Thank you
Do you soak and bleach your driftwood? I have seen processes including the soaking, boiling and bleaching. What is your advice? I use them for bases for my glass art.
HI! Thank you for the question, no I do not use any bleach on any of my driftwood pieces. I personally prefer to have it completely natural the way I found it, unless I'm adding a wood sealer or paint or something else. I like the way nature leaves the wood. I have several pieces now, that I have aging outside. You do whatever makes your art more comfortable and appealing! Glass art is awesome! Thank you!
Unus Annus be like
Unus Annus is Latin for 1 year. We have not gotten there yet, it's been 4 weeks. Thanks
The end product was okay but I thought the video was too long
Thanks for your critique! I agree, we are working on making our videos a bit shorter. Thanks for watching!
Can the work be sold there?
Yes I can sell the things I make where we live.
@@gourd-geousgals5674 thank you for the reply.
in my place many have done it even they made it from wood veins and roots, some are made from wood fossils & some also complete it with carvings typical of our area. 🙏
@@idhambaztari3125 Hello Idham, Thank you for your interest and sharing ideas from where you live. By the way, where do you live? We are in the USA, California and have access to the coast line where there is lots of driftwood. We also have a river bed close by and gather a lot of wood from there. Have a Gourd-geous Day!

thank you for your message, I live in Indonesia, precisely on the island of Kalimantan, here there is a lot of dead wood, but because of the limited tools and ideas to be developed so that the wood is not used, not infrequently some wood has become fossilized for the community it is garbage and usually for firewood. If you are interested in developing, please come and you can form a community that is oriented towards the use of waste, so that it can empower local communities. and the results you can send abroad for trade. that's a glimpse of our situation here, thank you 😊🙏🙋♂️
@@idhambaztari3125 HI Idham, Thank you for sharing where you are and your ideas. We would love to visit you but financial resources prevent us from such a travel. You could gather some of the wood and make planters or ornaments to sell since you have the free resources. We wish you only the best. Have a Gourd*geous Day
Yawn!!
AWW! Have a Gourd-geous Day!
nice job
Thank you for the comment, Roger. We appreciate you taking the time to watch our video and comment. Have a Gourd-geous day!
I pulled a piece of tree from a lake,washed it and now it's under my sound bar and TV
another from a bush I dug out of my mom's back yard...but just wash and place.
perhaps now I will super clean and sand for a different look. 😊 thanks
We would love to see pictures of your art. It is so exciting when people share their creations, and we can learn from each other. Have a Gourd-geous day.
