    PI enjoyed seeing the transformation of all the thrift finds, you scored lots of great things. My favorite is the Viking piece. Being Norwegian I can appreciate the end result. My uncle in Norway did pewter and had his own shop. Much of what he made was smooth and clean but he also made the rustic old Viking look. You created that look very well. Thanks for a very enjoyable video. 🙌⭐⭐⭐

    How great the stencil came out on card stock paper! You could probably use something like that in staging and sell them also! Beautiful piece of Art in itself !
    Those FLOWERS and how you paint them... love them!! 🌼🌼

    The things with the cement finish are great. Wasn't sure I would like them but I really do. When I make a stencil out of cardstock, before I use the stencil, I like to spray the stencil with the polycrylic. It helps seal the cardstock so it will be less likely to absorb paint. The stencil can be cleaned off easier and used repeated times.

    You've solved a problem for me! I was so happy to find a gold hammered metal flat piece with a rooster bulging out of it that I was SURE was going to look great painted black then white and distressed, but when I did it, all the little hammered dots made it look like everything including the rooster, had been shot repeatedly by a BB gun. I was SO disappointed and I had paid FOUR dollars for it. I just left it for a while hoping something would come to me. And when you painted that metal Viking tray with the concrete mixture, a light bulb must have appeared over my head! The white wax over the textured paint will give those dents and the rooster feathers just the subtle highlighting I need! I don't know why I didn't think of it myself since I've been painting a lot of other things with that mixture and wax. Thanks for the idea.....among many others you've given me. I'm so glad I found your channel!

    I think one of the things that would be really helpful for you for the tiny (and extra large) stenciling is learning how to make gyotaku tampos. (It's actually really easy, and in the long run would probably save time!) It's a style of ink dabber for nature printing developed in japan, but can be applied to basically anything. They also self-blend. Anyway, great video! I loved the cement ones, and I know you said the viking one was a problem child, but I think it looks really cool!
