I do Doll Crafts and I use Dog Nail clippers to cut dowls. Clean perfect cut everytime
For the vases, I would tape them onto a lazy susan and turn it to paint stripes. That way you just hold the brush in place instead of trying to paint uniform strokes
tsareno1 This! And using a better brush.
Great idea.
That’s a great tip!
Genius!
Also a better paint brush
Imo the striped vases were the best thing I've seen on these dupe videos. They looked fantastic.
I prefer your vases. I think they came out great. Very authentic. Lines do not have to be perfect.
To paint stripes in straight lines, brace your pinky finger on the vase, or whatever, That steadies your hand really well. I love all of these dupes. 🌹
"The artist is only as good as his brushes"....learned this early on,you did good considering what you had to paint with,all your items were really nice.
Good point! I definitely believe that after using the cheap Dollar Tree brushes! 😂
I agree! I think it’s awesome to use items from the Dollar Tree for these DIYs, but I’d skip over the paint brushes and use nicer ones. 🙂
irene gronewald especially when applying makeup 😄
Anytime you want to paint something circular and make them even- you can use Artists Tape- it has a different level of tack than painters tape. I think they’re still great- and the copper pen is one of my new BFFs
For the vase, two tips could be:
Paint the lines inside the clear vase with a water thinned acrylic, an inexpensive glass paint, or DIY a glass paint (made witb with clear glue and acrylic paint) (provided your hand is small enough to fit inside 😅.)
Paint all the lines and allow to dry. Carefully paint a second coat of the same colors. If you look at the original you'll see this layered effect is evident.
When its fully dry, spray paint the inside white.
Alternatively, paint the outside with any white paint, but mix it with a small amount of white school glue. Just a small amount. Then when dry, paint your lines with your thinned pr glass paint. (The small amount of glue in the white paint will give it a smooth finish that will help your paint glide over it without pulling it off the glass)
Still do a light first layer and when dry repeat.
When using this method it's very important that you spray it with a clear gloss coat once its fully dry or the paint will scratch off.
The type of paint brush bristles can effect it also. Ideally you want a very smooth bristle so its gliding. A cotton swab could work, or a piece of dense foam cut to size.
I would like to try this with some of my DIY faux stained glass knowledge and see how it comes out! Thanks for the inspo
I love the way your vases came out! You didn’t give yourself enough credit! In fact all of your DIYs look amazing 🌸 Great job, super creative 😊
I love the vase also.
Actually love your vases! Your small version of the starburst mirror is perfect And I Love the double mirror!! I bought a Dollar spot round mirror several months ago that has a rose gold edge & a kind of dainty braided rose gold & white cord for just $3.00!! They only had one. It would be perfect to add the smallest mirror to for your diy!! Great job all around!! Thanks for sharing❣️
I wonder how paint pens or sharpies would work on the vases? Yours look great.
i thought sharpies
I think if you left a little more white space between the colored lines on the vases it might have looked more like the original, but I really liked your tall narrow one.
The marble trays were my favorite.but all of your ideas were so creative. Please continue the Anthropologie and Pottery Barn videos.
Awesome ideas! With the vases I think if you had a lazy Susan to set it on and work around it would come out similar and be a little easier to control the lines! Love this video tho!
The vases were super cute the way they are... That's the beauty of crafting not everything has to be perfect and uniform. I love them!!! I don't think you give your creativity enough credit your DIYs are awesome.
I have found only 1 of the bamboo cutting boards out of 3 $ trees I go to. Must be super popular. Love the Anthropology knock offs. Great job!
The easiest way I have found to cut dowels is using dog nail clippers. You can find them in different sizes and they cut in a circle.
You should have used painters tape and a small brush. You can keep them even and consistent.
Thanks for that tip Shelly. Now I will try the vases without fear. hug hug hug. I think I'll make it my next project
Shelly Lemons you can use any cutter for round objects for dowels- technically - but would only want to exclusively use dog nail clippers for the dowels. I recommend a round flush cutter- I use these in my jewelry making
I agree with using the smaller brush but won’t the painters tape make the lines straight versus the uneven lines on the Anthropologie vases?
I agree with painters tape and maybe a small sponge brush which Dollar Tree does sell.
The vases are perfect and my favorite!! Honestly, it’s my favorite! I’m a throwback ‘70s hippie chick and I’m also totally Country. I can be thrown into some situations and live just fine. So my style is eclectic-bogo-Country-farmhouse!!! Lol
I really liked the colorful striped vases!
Different brush would have made it easier for sure. The anthropology ones also have even white spaces in between which I think helps it look more intentional. Maybe use some spray varnish to help make yours look more intentional too. Great crafts btw!!
Taping the spaces that you wanted to keep white would help a lot even though they actual vase's lines were messy and wavy, you could add that by going over them again. definitely needed more white space :)
Loved the marble tray!!!!! Always wanted one but could not afford!! Thanks
i would love to do that, but i cant find any marble contact paper at any local DT (then again ..ours seldom has things like that that i need. #sadness )
@@jenniferggreer457 Walmart or Amazon
The small copper case with the succulents!!! Love!!!
Vase lol
Wow the sun mirror is stunning!!! Can’t believe how close it looks to the real one for SO cheap!!
I love the Anthropologie diy!!! I love them all, but I’ll rank them:
1. Marble tray
2. Starburst mirror
3. Vases (I’d use colors that would blend with my color scheme)
Thx again!
Those vases look pretty good, I would just seal it up with a clear coat of spray paint to even out the white spray paint and the colored paint
Disaster? I love those vases actually my favorite I love colors and funky thinks 😍❤
I loved the starburst mirror. They were all cute!
I use these bamboo toothpicks in gardening/DIY that already have the dent as well as being half round! You’re a rockstar!
They are great as I use a giant amount of dowels myself!
That mirror is super cute! Wow!
The vase... I think you did fine. Two suggestions: leave more white space between the lines AND never mix colors like that because they become muddy. Mix according to a color chart (or back of good dye box) or add white or black to lighten or darken a color.
Ohmygoodness I love the copper color!! Great job! Ty
I love the tray and the mirror. Your lined vase is just as good as the store bought one.
I really loved the vases. LOL After getting them finished, they need a gloss coat and VIOLA! they are ready for flowers!
A good paint brush makes all the difference, the mirror with dowels is my fav!
Mine too!
The vases were "messy" because you used child brushes instead of real painters brushes like acrylic or (real) watercolor brushes. But it doesn't look that messy and actually looks really fun! 💙 I couldn't have done any better with those brushes! If you watch your video, you can see yourself drag the plastic bristles across the vase and get nothing in return. I bought those same brushes for my kids and tried using them once and never again! I hope this helps. 💙
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your double mirrors. The sunburst mirror was good. The rainbow stripe vases were Good 👍 a replica for a dupe or knockoff.
All of them are great, but my favorite diy was the marble tray.
Cute! For the painted ones, use a better brush, yes.. also use a varathane to shine it up. Acrylic has a tendency to dry matte.
Love ur work! Please please please keep doing non farmhouse designs! Very classy dupes! Beautiful!
My favorite has to be the copper trimmed mirror. But they're all great. Have a great night.
Thank you so much, Sandy! Same to you! 😘❤️🤗
Great projects, Dont you find it amazing how easy and cost effective we can make these things and yet anthropologie sells them all day long for 100 dollars or more lol. Thank you for sharing
Tbh the colored vase looks just fine. Totally cute.
I was thinking on how I could get those cute handles with only a little money when I realized that you can diy them! Just cut dowel rods and paint after wood glueing into place! It would be cute if the middle was black or light gray maybe with the ends metallic? Also dog clippers can cut through dowel rods easier. Also I love the vase personally.
The vases are cute!!! I like the uneven lines... it adds character☺️☺️
The problems you had with your striped vases was the brushes you used. It also might be an idea to use the acrylic paint markers for this. You'd have much more control. But yeah, those brushes were a disaster waiting to happen. That said, you captured the spirit of all the items perfectly! Well done!
Vases look lovely. Maybe finish with a gloss. They look great 👍🏽
I really dig the mirror! I think the vase is actually close to the original except the colors are different.
A quality brush is always the best way to go but your vases are very cute😍
Love your DIYs!
Regarding the vases at the end, your came out fine considering the brush. I do watercolor and I have to say “The brush is EVERYTHING when it comes to painting!” Also, a cheap plastic “lazy Susan” meant for organizing inside cabinets might help you turn the piece instead of having to hold it in your hand. Set it in the “lazy Susan” and turn as you paint.
Just some thoughts!
Thanks, Kris! 😍🤗❤️
I could see putting a spin on the mirror pieces by alternating colors on the dowels. I'll post my pics if I try this. :)
Love the vases! Spray w clean spray paint, to be glossy looking
i think if you sprayed a gloss top coat on the striped vase it might make it look more finished. It honestly looks just like the original, just needs some shine. It may also smooth out all the lines
If you're shooting for the vases to look like the original ones....you definately NEED to use a brush with as little bristles as possible. Keep your paint thinned out off of the brush, and just TAKE YOUR TIME!!!!! You CAN'T rush painting. As for your vases....I like them. Give them a glossy finish and you're done. 😎🖒🖒❤
🥇👍 WINNING! Love that you used what you have and I'm beyond in love with the 2nd mirror 😍 I think you did a great job on the vases. I think the Anthropologie ones had that sort of messy Picasso look anyways and you totally nailed it. Not my style but you definitely are on point with the look.
Aww, thank you so much!! XOXO
Love your projects! I have a suggestion for you. Would love to see you do a tribal print area rug. You could use a canvas dropcloth and chalk paint or maybe even sharpies. I love the rugs with tassels!
For the vases, I would try using a thinner brush and a bit of water with the paint to make it thinner as well. 😊
At a glance these were great dupes and they really look good!!
I think that a few tips to help them look a bit more "polished", I would suggest:
1) for the trays you should try a 45 degree angle cut for the corners to lay more evenly... \ rather than L.
2) for the "double" mirror, try using the frame for a pen guide to make the initial outline circle, before removing the glass from the frame. This will give you a perfect edge to fill in, once the mirror is removed.
3) for the "stick" mirror, I think that angled chop-sticks would have created a better ray pattern for the points on the longer ends. Regardless, even using regular dowels, a light sanding on the cuts would have cleaned up the ends and made that much nicer, aesthetically (deeper scoring would minimize the splintering too!)
4) striped vases were super cute and you did Fantastic with your color mixing!! I would recommend a) better brushes (craft brushes are THE Worst!), b) second application of paint, to avoid the white showing through as much, though the better brushes with slower application may negate this step (I know,you said you were in a hurry here).
I love the wiggly lines, but keep in mind the negative white space so it doesn't look so busy; finally might want to top off with a blast of gloss (or matte, your pref) clear spay to uniform the lewk.
Great hacks and camera/definition is very nice. Take a little more time with the details and this would be Pro!! 💗
Love your tips! Thanks for sharing those!
Tape the vase off. You can use scissors to cut the waves/edges into the tape before sticking it along the vase. Hope this helps you in correct the perfect vase for your idea.
Vases are my favorite. I saw them in the thumbnail... they caught my eye... I clicked.
I really enjoyed this video! Regarding the vases, I think they were a big success. I actually don’t know what you felt were wrong with them. The “”amorphous “ lines were perfect! The mirrors were lovely. I would have to see the marble tray to assess it, but on camera it looked very nice. I would have finished the bottom because that’s just the way I am. A lot of inspiration here. Thank you!
Thanks, Jacqui! I'm so glad you enjoyed! 🤗❤️😍😘
The vases are adorable.
I love all you shared, I like the vases n the wavey lines look neat, whimsical. I love it
I love the vases. They're very cute and quirky.
Cut your small wood dowels with dog nail clipper! Very easy!!
Totally going to add this tio to my arsenal!
They sell a foam wheel on a small plastic stick in the paint section of Lowes or Home Depot. It's used for corners and joints. You could tape off sections and roll that around using the tape as a guide. Lines won't be even just more uniform if that makes sense.You have nice ideas. I thought the tall vase you did looked cute though.
Love these DIYs! And your lines are cute! If you want your lines to be more evenly spaced out you could use painters tape and then go back and make them look squiggly after you remove it. But you have a one of a kind look and that’s awesome!
I loved all your videos, my favorite is the bedside tray and the mirror. I can't wait, too try my hand at making both of those first , then the other afterwards.
My favorite is the bedside tray!! So gorgeous! I think your vase turned out fine, super cute!
Thanks, Danielle! I love having that tray by the bed so I can put water bottles or body oil or whatever on the tray and it wipes right off the contact paper rather than soaking into the wooden night stand table!
@@StyleMySweets, that's great! Definitely a great diy!
You did a great job with all three. The comparison is amazing.
Loved it! I feel that if I were to do the vase I'd probably do the spray paint base, then put it on a lazy Susan, possibly using a small sponge brush or even my fingers? But hey there are over a 1000 ways to cook an egg, and everyone has their own idea they can try to apply to their creations that'll make a piece unique
The vases look like something from Mexico. I think they would look great with the right decor. Also, to get somewhat straighter lines you could put thick rubber bands on the vase and paint inbetween them.
Lisa, I was thinking the same thing! 😍 and I love your idea for the rubber bands ❤️
I personally think the vases look great! I think the only thing keeping yours from looking exactly like the photo is brush width. Try a higher quality pointed brush for those lines. It won’t fall apart on you like the brush you used.
I actually love how the vases turned out , the vases and the best trays were my favorite. Your so talented
The vase lines would have come out better had you used a thicker brush with a point on it. Load it really well and then my trick, hold your breath as you draw each portion of the line LOL have a beautiful night hun
Great tip! Thanks, Rita pita! Happy Weekend!
@@StyleMySweets I hope I didn't come across as being some kind of expert. Quite often when I'm making projects I have to cut my head to the side and sort of squint through my eyes oh, and say yeah it's okay 😂 have a beautiful day
Love the mirrors - but the trays are my favorite.
My favorite is the mirrors! TFS!
My favorite one was the mirror and i loved it, thank you !!!!!
maybe a slightly larger paint brush or a small sponge would have given you more stability. It looks good.
Love them all but I think my favorite is the mirrors. Great ideas though.
Idk i love the idwa of spray painting but ur right!! It was still imspirinv and those trays were a very good alterbative ill definatly try it!!
You could use a thick yarn around cylinders and paint between the lines (temporarily) then use the yarn dipped in white paint to fix any mistakes if you wanted to.
I think you can just go back in and make sure the lines on your vases are filled in fully. I think what makes the anthro ones look intentionalnis the fact that they are completely opaque and even in colour.
I love love love the striped vases!!!
I've seen folks use painters tape, or the decorative 1\4 inch deco tape on the vases. I like your work.
All of your DIY’S are the best I’ve seen! The vases are wonderful! The double mirror is wonderful! I really like your style. God bless you honey 🙏🏻❤️
I personally love the vases
I'm going to do the mirror that looks like a sun but I'm going to use paper straws and see how I go. As I was only thinking about doing this project a couple of days ago.
I like how the vases turned out! I agree with using sharpies, May have been easier to do. Either way, I like yours, I love color!
I like your little vases. Maybe spray them with a clear gloss afterward to add shine. Thanks and God bless you!
Never seen those big mirrors at Dollar tree. It looks nice.
The vase is cute. I like it because its not perfect. Its cheerful.
Aww, thank you Lucky! It is cheerful, I agree! LOL 😂😍🤗❤️
All of the ideas were great and the vases came out perfect
I really loved the vases & mirrors.
vases are cute-- I think a better quality brush with stiff bristles may have helped but nice job. I am going to give it a try.
Your take on these Anthropologie items may not be perfect but your creativity is fantastic! Keep coming up with your project hacks!!! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Rebecca, My 2 favorite projects you made for this video is the gold dowel mirror and the faux marble tray. I love trays and I love white/grayish marble and last weekend a friend of mine was down sizing and getting rid of lots of items in her house and she knows anything paper related I love to reuse for making my cards. She gave me 3 brand new rolls of contact paper (very large rolls) with the back ground being white and gray/silvery flowers. My very first thought on how to use them were to cover a 49X24 piece of plywood for the top of my sewing table I am making which was from a video made by Ms. Barlow and for the life of me I cannot recall what her first name is. But, then when I saw this video of your's right away I thought, "OMGOSH, the contact paper with the silvery flowers would look so awesome as trays!!" On top of a table next to my sewing table now I have antique pedestal crystal candy dishes that my threads and bobbins sit in and I think they would look great sitting on the trays. The trays would add a bit of glamour and glitz to my area. I am running out of wall space for a large mirror but, the gold dowel rod mirror of your's is very cool too and I also like metallic blue and I bet that would be very cool too with blue metallic dowels or both - have long gold dowels and the shorter ones be metallic blue or metallic red. All your ideas are always super. I did in fact watch the Pottery Barn one before this. Although I have never bought anything from Pottery Barn I always love it when their magazine comes because their room staging gives me ideas and I love how they use vases with candles inside - so how you made your plunger candle holder was awesome. I love anything that is made with glass and wood and the layering of the wood to make the base was really neat.
I have been very busy at work the last couple of weeks and working longer hours for various reasons. I also have been away with my Dad in NJ helping at my brother's home while he has been in out patient rehab during the day and his wife is working and I am not one to carry my lap top around with me - plus I wanted to devote all my time to my Dad (80) and my brother when he was home at night and in the morning before he left for rehab. I came home late last night. After church today mom and I had lunch for Mother's Day and I gave her my little gifts and then I came home and took a long nap and she went to my sister's for their celebration. While napping I thought to myself, "I wonder if Rebecca from Style My Sweets made any new videos while I was away and how cool, the marble tray one was made this past Saturday. Again, sorry for the length and I hope you had a great Mother's Day and thank you for more awesome ideas. I just remembered - Ms. Barlow is Katie and she and you are my favorites!! Have a super week. Tomorrow I am going to go to Home Depot within walking distance to my home and get a piece of lumber, take a swatch of the contact paper with me to match up to the handles. I think probably silver handles to match the silver flowers.
All are very nice and cozy. For the painting you can use some painters tape which would give you a straight clean line. Keep at it!
I think you did a nice job. For the small dowels, I have had great success using the pet nail clipper that I purchased in the pet care section at dollar tree.
I enjoy watching your videos.
Jeannette Clary thank you! Great tip! 😍❤️
That mirror you made is superb!
Gardening Sheers would cut the dowels.
With the painted vase you could did great - maybe you could have cleaned your brush and used a eyeshadow brush or if you want cleaner lines use slim painters tape and paint in between the gaps.
Eyeshadow brush! Good idea! And I bet Dollar Tree might have something that could work 😍
