Girl!!!!!! You gave me an idea and I want to THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!! My husband went to pick up a chair he bought from an individual and welp, the darned thang fell out😆😅 So I've been trying to figure out how to hide the "imperfection" all this time. I mixed up some paint to match the color and dabbed it on with a sponge brush and BOOM hid that ugly spot!!!! It's located at the top but kind of toward the back of the chair so it can't really be seen unless you walk up and look for it. You rock!!!
Fabric softener is made with tallow, also known as animal fat which is what I think gives it elasticity, so maybe it won’t crack because of that, perhaps someone else can comment on the tallow component, I’m just guessing.
@@mariemccormack8515 check out “Lone Fox) , he did this and loved it. As well as “DIY Danie”and hers turned out great as well! Good luck! I want to try this someday too. For any type of furniture makeovers, “Furniture Flipping Teacher” is amazing!
Ya,it did turn out Beautiful. However I have the same ? Does it crack when someone sits on it? Also when you sanded it & the fibers broke did it give it a suede texture?
what about no sanding then after last coat use the wax like annie sloan a d apply to set the paint and make it soft. she did it and said its wonderful????
@@GloriaGaleana-e7z I’m not sure 🤔 I wouldn’t recommend this method on fur fabrics but if you have something small and you don’t care much about it, you can try and see what it does.
Nice! Hoping it held up without cracking or rubbing off on clothing over time. I heard the baby in the background during the second coat ☺️ Great job following your vision!
Susan, I painted my old loveseats which were a pink damask. No paint has ever rubbed off or cracked. They still look great after two years and we actually sit on them. 😉
Much more attractive when it was unpainted damask. The fabric was clean and had no worn spots. If you wanted to refresh it, simply do a light shampooing with fabric cleaner.
She said it was stained, so this was her way of salvaging it. The new Finnish looks brighter, fresher, updated, less fussy and more relevant to present style.
Why use hard paint in fabric? Why not use a fabric dye? Also, you can use hydrogen peroxide and baking soda, drop off dish soap, and fragrance of your choice. This is thumbs down for me. Sorry 👎
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
It looks awesome! I've never heard of mixing paint with fabric softener. Thanks for sharing!
I think the pattern showing through is nice.
Exactly what I thought
Gives it depth
Bravo for bravely honoring your vision. Ignore people who make it about them. This is your vision. Now, I get to try it! Thank you!
I'll admit I was worried when you first started... but it turned out beautiful. :)
Can't believe u painted over that beautiful damask ..!
It had yellowed.
@@cheekypiper512 It had yellowed BUT was beautifully aged.
It had stains
This a common technique. Great job!
Very Beautiful

Can’t wait to try.
I am definetly gonna try it on my old couch
What is the life of the painted project? Will it crack and peel later?

Love this it looks great
Does the paint not crack when you sit on it.
I too would like to know the answer to that as I am thinking of trying this and wonder how well it would hold up to usage?!

I wondered the same??
You didn't say if the fabric was stiff when completed. Was it?
Olá boa tarde!!!
Ficou lindo maravilhoso
Vc saberia me dizer se tem como pintar tapete peludo
So interesting. Thank you

Can I paint on a fur fabric,,,same method?
@@GloriaGaleana-e7z I’m not sure 🤔 I wouldn’t recommend this method on fur fabrics but if you have something small and you don’t care much about it, you can try and see what it does.
I like it
Looks good. Do u know if u can paint any fabric..ex soft suede
@@spoilledsilly2 not sure 🤔
Much easier to hand wash. Does it look like leather now?
It does look as if it went on well.
Does anyone know, how I can cleaned my stained white leather lounge suite?
New subby 🤓Approximately how long between coats does it take to dry?
The longer you leave it the better
Thank you. I can leave a month in between but I know you don’t mean that long 😂
LOOKS BEAUTIFUL

😍💕💕💕💕💕
Does it come off on your clothing? Does it crack? I do wish she would answer questions:)

Hi, no it doesn’t come off or crack.
Brown paper bag to sand with works well
Which paint should I use?
That’s so cool good job 👍
what type of paint did you use please ?
@Joni Spruit thanx for reply
Satin or Eggshell as for finish! Can't wait to try this!!!
50% paint 50% Downy Fabric Softener so I have on other podcast & can't wait!!!
It will not last very long AT ALL
@@squirrel8161 did you try it? I want to try it out .
Has anyone tried to paint the fake leather/vinyl that has started to peel?

Thank goodness everyone has a different perspective on things in this life. It would be so boring if we were all the same.
I AGREE
It wasn't to her and it's in her house. Looks way better in her room after it was painted... Not everyone likes old fashioned fabrics. I sure don't
Agree
they usually use chalk paint .
Briliant idea!
Use a peice of balled up brown paper bag
Idk about mixing chemicals. Sounds dangerous.
Kan het niet verstaan te zacht geluid
Very nice. Hope it doesn't over time.
Yall do not do this.....you will ruin your furniture.
Oh, it makes the fabric like leather!

Ok critical Quinn Karen why don’t you go try your own idea and record it for the world to see
That is not how you pronounce softener
Picky-picky!
Everybody has different accents or pronounces something wrong you don't have to bring it out
She obviously knows two languages! She should be proud! She's also very crafty.
We can all rest easy knowing that the pronunciation police is on guard to protect us!
Obviously that’s her second language🤦🏽♀️
it was nice to begin with. too ba u ruined it
She said it was stained and this was done to salvage it.
Thank goodness everyone has a different perspective on things in this life. It would be so boring if we were all the same.
What's wrong with you? It's not your house. It's not your bench. I seriously doubt you will ever be invited to actually see it. Is that your problem?
