      I actually did not see the owl or I’ve had people also say a cat until I had to finish the sign and you all have been mentioning it in the comments but now that you have said it I can’t on see the owl definitely should’ve made it into a Halloween sign

    place an image of a black teapot on top on the wide part of the green frame. Maybe even a 3D sculptural sticker of a teapot you can make with your silicone molds?

    • @OurUpcycledLife

    You are amazing!!! Thabk you so so much. I just bought at least 30 pieces of folk art wood. The shapes and pieces are amazing and I was going to cut them to make rectangles and shapes like that. Some have ben enciled in with her artwork. A few half painted but 80 percent blank. I am so doing this to all of them thanks to you.

    Thanks for sharing such great tips!! I'll send one your way - if you want to fill in old screw holes in a piece, fill the hole with sawdust then squirt some super glue in there and let it dry, sand repeat if needed. Hope this help!

    • @OurUpcycledLife
      @OurUpcycledLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes that’s a great tip I’ve also done it with baking soda and superglue I actually need to do a video on that thanks for watching

    Such beautiful pieces. I am so looking forward to seeing how they will come out. You come out with such interesting and precious projects and tips, that I feel like putting them into practice.
    The technique of ageing the wood is so interesting and apparently easy (everything you make seems easy) and the printing the wording technique is so cool! Can all this you made with wood be applicable on plywood as well?
    Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience and for such great tutorials!

    Hello from Maine!! I am just in LOVE with this reverse process!! I am going to my very first craft fair in Nov. And, I am busy making signs! My main question is about pricing! Everyone tells me that I am underpricing my stuff, I think its because I just want my stuff to sell!! What is a decent price for a regulal sign? As for the piece of wood you dont know what it is, my hubby says it looks like the bottom to an old sewing machine. it would be the underside of an old fashioned foot pedal machine! Thank you so much!

    • @OurUpcycledLife
      @OurUpcycledLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes I love the reverse process also so many possibilities. When placing an I am I always go to Etsy find a comparable product and then price from there every area it’s going to be different so it’s kind of hard to say what you should charge for something because what someone would charge in the city will be different than the country

    • @OurUpcycledLife
      @OurUpcycledLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think because I have done so many signs I can I it really well and get it straight but sometimes I do mess up a little bit and I should take the time to just use a ruler and measure it out which if you’re just starting might be a good practice

    It's refreshing to find this video. I build with pallets and reclaimed materials. you can go to my face book page and see some examples. Iwill be posting more. I recently built a table. It's there. And I have some videos of the cabin I built and am working on now. I had a few pallets that have been in the weather, but still healthy that as I've played around with it, I realized with the natural petina, they would be great sign material. So check it out. and thanks for the tips.
