I'm so glad I found you! I haven't done decoupage in many years & I'm picking it back up again at 60. Your videos are so helpful. I love listening to you! And your work...these candle holders & your plates, everything...is absolutely beautiful. I love how you really keep it simple! Thanks! P.S. You can NEVER have enough glitter & sparkle!
These are absolutely beautiful and elegant! As I run your tutorials I look forward to seeing more of them. Your thorough and clear instructions and tips are so worth paying attention to. Thank you!
You do a good job im helping us I just love doing things that with you .it's not a lot of money put do the things with you and I got alot of the way you do and I can do it I just love doing things for Christmas
I have tons of little glass jars from a yogurt I used to eat. Now I know what I am going to do with them! I don’t have mulberry paper so I will paint some of them. Thanks!!
I love this video, I am looking at creating some for a shop I plan to start. While I use a lot of the battery tea lights I was wondering if these could also be used with an actual tea light? I wasn't sure if the products used like the varnish would not be safe for this. I want to make sure my customers have appropriate information. Thanks so much for your videos.
Hi Angela! I recommend the battery operated flameless candles only! And Target has the best little flameless candles, they really flicker like real candles. They’re pretty in centerpieces, on each place setting as a favor, on shelves, in the bathroom, on a tired tray....good luck with your new business venture and let me know how they sell. - Joan 🙂
Just found your channel and I love your designs and tutorials! Do you have one for decoupaging wax battery-operated candles? There are so many techniques on uTube but I’d love to see your version.
Absolutely beautiful 💕 Can’t wait to try these. I already bought everything. Can this technique be done on the clear plates and cutting boards? I know you would have to put the napkin first then the mulberry paper.I think this would be easier than painting. Thank you💕
They are gorgeous! I love this! I wonder if there are pastel color mulberry papers for spring time projects? That would be awesome! Thank you for this beautiful DIY video!
Hi! Yes mulberry paper comes in many colors. I bought the white because I knew I would use that the most. I got a big roll so it’s like a lifetime supply, lol. Thank you for watching! - Joan 🙂
Thank you for introducing me to decoupage. I enjoy doing it and your guidance really helps.🌝 There is one question can I use something other than mulberry paper to get approximately the same result.
The napkin with the birds is sold out which can happen when I do a video. The holly is still in stock. Vippies Designs has lots of napkins that can be used on tea lights. www.Vippies.com 🙂
Hi Joan Question for you. I've watched your video making the Joy glitter plate. Can you explain why I'm getting some bubbles on the napkin on the back of the plate? I'm not using any glitter on this plate and I did coat the napkin with some Mod Podge. I'm using Folk Art one Step paint to paint the back of the plate. I couldn't find a color in the Chalk Paint that would match. I'm hoping the bubbles go away once I apply a second coat of paint. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jackie
Hi Jackie! Here are some reasons: not giving each step enough time to dry, how and where the Mod Podge was applied, not applying enough Mod Podge and coating the entire surface first which means if you miss a spot a bubble may form, applying a top coat of a Mod Podge too soon. I am not familiar with Folk Art one step so maybe it has something to do with the paint. I hope that helps Joan
Hi! I use flameless candles and remote lights. If you ever have any safety concern about any product including varnishes, please read the label with manufacturers recommendations and warnings. Always safety first! I never use candles in my home. - 🙂 Joan
HI Joan. I want to do some votives for a birthday coming up in March. Do you have any suggestions? I know the area on the votive candleholder isn't very big. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank You
Hi Jackie! If there is a theme for a birthday party or something the person likes ( flowers, birds, cats, travel)? I would start there! Good luck and have fun, sounds like a really nice idea! 🙂 🎂 Joan
Hi! For safety, do not put real tea lights. Put only the battery operated. Personally I never burn candles in my house, only flameless. Thank you for watching! 🙂 Joan
Hi Terry! Do you have an art supply store near you? That’s a good place to check. I do buy from Amazon because I am not a fan of Michael’s or Hobby Lobby because I spend too much money when I shop, lol. The roll I bought from Amazon was about 17.00 and is like a lifetime supply. You can also try Etsy and eBay. EDIT- I checked eBay and they have lots of it there. However some of the same sellers as on Amazon. Hope that helps! - Joan 🙂
Love the using water to weaken the napkin instead of trying to cut or tear perfectly 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽☺️

Thank you for introducing me to decoupage. I enjoy doing it and your guidance really helps.🌝 There is one question can I use something other than mulberry paper to get approximately the same result.
Hi Rachel! You can crumple up tissue paper, smooth it, tear it in pieces and apply the same way. Not exactly the same but similar. Joan
Can I use the kitchen paper towel that's a bit thicker than the paper napkin if we can't get mulberry paper?
I have never tried paper towels, might wok. Give it a try! 🙂
Hello, I don't see the napkin you used for the candle holders. Can you share a link please?
The napkin with the birds is sold out which can happen when I do a video. The holly is still in stock. Vippies Designs has lots of napkins that can be used on tea lights. www.Vippies.com 🙂
Can u tell me what size of candle holders u used,thank you.
They are tea light holders I got from the Dollar Tree. They’re small, about 2” high.

Joan-Marie, I can’t use this varnish. I have a parrot that can smell this varnish. What other item can I use?
Hi! I have a parrot too. I do it outside however I recommend you use just Mod Podge and do it in another room or outside. Don’t use the varnish - Joan
Hello!
Those are so pretty.
Just recently subscribed and just love how you show and explain everything 🙂
Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! - Joan 🙂
Do you have to use flameless candles or can u use real candles for this?
Only use flamesless
Love this tutorial, can you tell me if there is a right side or wrong side for attaching mulberry paper
I think the fuzzy side down but I have done it both ways and saw no difference - Joan
@@JoanMarieDomino thank you
Is the varnish heat proof? Thank you
Hi! I use flameless candles and remote lights. If you ever have any safety concern about any product including varnishes, please read the label with manufacturers recommendations and warnings. Always safety first! I never use candles in my home. - 🙂 Joan
How long is the drying time for each stage?
I would say with these candle holders about an hour or less..when they don’t feel sticky. - Joan
What is Malberry Paper???? I've never heard of it before.

Hi beautiful project where to find the paper??
They are very pretty indeed! Is it safe to use a real flame with the products you have used?
Hi! I say no they are not. I only use flameless with napkin crafts 🙂Joan
We’re do you find the mulberry paper
This is what I used in the video. Mulberry Paper by the roll: amzn.to/3wizEy8
I love this Dura Clear Varnish you showed.
If a use a gloss mod podge, which Dura Clear finish would you suggest?
Hi Margie! If you like the glossy finish then use the DuraClear varnish too -Joan 🙂
@@JoanMarieDomino what about the mod podge varnish? It comes in the plastic bottle the same as the others. I don’t have the dura clear.
You can use the Mod Podge as a top coat. If it’s not going outside it should be fine. If it’s the glossy Mod Podge it will be shiny too! 🙂
Where do you buy your beautiful napkins?
Vippies Designs and Decoupage www.vippies.com
Is Mulberry paper the same as Rice paper?
Hi Mary! No they are different. Rice paper mostly comes printed where mulberry paper does not and has lots of fibers running thru it. 🙂 Joan
So beautiful. Where do you get the mulberry paper?
Hi Trish! Thank you! This what I used in all my Mulberry Paper videos amzn.to/3wizEy8 Joan
Can we just use Kleenex paper in place of mulberry paper
Hi! You can try Kleenex but I think it would tear once wet, it’s not strong enough. You can always try! Thanks for watching! - Joan 🙂
I am new to decoupage ... would it be safe to use real tea lights in these? Thank you! They are truly beautiful!
Hi! For safety, do not put real tea lights. Put only the battery operated. Personally I never burn candles in my house, only flameless. Thank you for watching! 🙂 Joan
