Originally to roll down wallpaper edges many years ago.......I'm 90..... Beautiful envelope....
For those of us who are a little older - well maybe more than a "little older" - I definitely recognize that tool from my decoupage days in the '70s. It's a brayer roller!
I find anything from the 70s so incredibly useful and beautiful! Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong time period, your very lucky to of lived during those times sweetheart 🥰 thank you for letting me know!
@@amitybloom159 I'm 76 and still have mine, but I stopped using it decades ago, this video motivated me to start over. Loved both.
❤amei que fofo
That is a tool that was used many years ago to roll the seams when wallpapering. The seams were always a problem if you didn’t roll them well. I had one back in the day as I did a lot of wallpapering.
I have so much wallpaper so it’s ironic I had no clue 😆 I’ll try using them for their purpose as I’m planning on using wallpaper on an entire room! Wish me luck 🥰
@@amitybloom159 good luck!
@@amitybloom159 The tool is a brayer for smoothing out bubbles & bumps but can be used to apply adhesives & paints etc & for distressing & effects. Sorry it's actually Rebekah Legion SundayGirlJournals but I'm on my other account Xx
Hi, my Dad had one of those, he was a professional painter/contractor, he used his for smoothing out wallpaper seams. Who knew. Thanks for all the great videos and ideas.
So cute and fun to make. Thank you. Blessings.
I use decorated napkins frequently in my journals if I have several related items that I want to include, such as several photos, or a few family recipes, maybe some newspaper clippings on the same subject, or maybe include a few fabric swatches in an envelope to use later in the journal. They look so nice and they keep small related ephemra together.
Love the blue always! Sweet envelope with the girls image in it!
It's a brayer------a multi purpose tool. There are hard hard ones and rubber ones. Roll out air bubbles, secure glued paper to other paper, use to roll paint onto a collage, essential for using a geli plate to roll paint onto the geli plate. Very useful tool.
Just found your channel. The green napkin looks very elegant on the envelope.❤
I always look each day for a new video from you. Love this idea... all of your digitals are gorgeous and your enthusiasm is contagious! Thank you 😄
Aww Thank you so much Sue! I’m trying to upload a new video every week as I absolutely love connecting and sharing with you ❤️ I’m starting to create a new digital and physical collection that I hope you love my dear!
Yay!!!!!! Finally!!! I myself have a huge stash of napkins and envelopes.....Oh Nazi !!!
This is heavenly sent...🙌❤️
Can't wait to get creative!!
🤗🇿🇦!!
You are the sweetest Yvette! Thank you sweetheart ❤
Stunningly beautiful ideas.
beautiful as usual, thank you 😉
Love it.❤❤❤❤❤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wihat a cool project, the envelopes turned out beautiful , napkins have such beautiful designs and colors and this is a great way to reuse them, Love your enthusiasm. Thanks for sharing.
Now I know what I'm going to do with my paper napkins. This is beautiful. For some reason I thought you were talking about handkerchiefs at first. And that would be really cool as well to glue onto an envelope. Thanks for the inspiration.
I have some brayers, but they are wider than the one you have. I use them to get out air bubbles as well. And I use them to roll paint on a gelli plate.
I've never used a glue stick for this! AWESOME, Nazy! ♥
Thank you so much Hali! It’s easier and no mess which is always a plus 😆 I just find that using mod podge never works out for me like I want it to
Gorgeous. I love the idea of an envelope journal.
Lovely napkins Nazzi, one of my fave things to use. The little tool is a cute brayer :) I use one for Gel printing. Thanks for the inspiration x
Wow!! Love these napkin decorated envelopes. Beautiful colours. x Blessings x Mariana UK xx
Adore this idea, Nazy!! Beautiful napkins and so gorgeous on the envelopes. Love this idea!!
Thank you so much ❤️ it’s such an easy way to add a vintage texture and pattern to our projects!
This is beautiful!
I love this!! Thank you!
Great video! Thanks. That tool, was used for wallpapering. My Dad wallpaper ed all our houses; he built them too. I think he had that size and maybe one bigger.
I have a wooden brayer like that..as a quilter I use when piecing..it it's like finger pressing ..I actually bought it at a quilt shop🥰love your video. Ty🇨🇦
I have a wooden roller quite like the one you used. Back in the 1980’s-90’s, I used it to smooth and adhere the edges of wallpaper and wallpaper borders. I had wallpaper in many rooms. It was beautiful. Why don’t we use wallpaper anymore? I had the most gorgeous red plaid in my front hall. I stenciled beautiful borders in other rooms. It was all the rage. You could learn how to stencil in stores that sold stencils. I remember a store that had a large selection of stencils on the walls, so I could be inspired to buy that stencil. Those were the days!
Oh I truly wish wallpaper was more popular in home decor nowadays…I think I would make each room a different color palette and pattern of wallpaper 😆 thank you for letting me know sweetheart!
@@amitybloom159 You’re welcome. I use my little wooden roller for paper crafts now. It’s precious to me. 💕 It has the patina of age.
Beautiful idea, I have to try this 😍
I looked it up and even though we may call them brayers which are typically rubber not wood. They were know as wallpaper seam rollers back when wallpaper was used a lot. It was to insure the seams of wallpaper were not noticeable. How funny since you love your wallpaper. What a neat find!!!
It’s so ironic 🤣 I’ve been finding out it’s mainly a tool for wallpaper application and I laugh every-time as I collect wallpaper yet never knew of this 😂 thank you so much sweetheart for letting me know!
These are readily available in craft shops for art work.
Oh, this is such a pretty and fun project! I can't wait to make some! thank you for sharing your creativity with us!
I have found a lot of beautiful napkins at the Christmas Tree Shop. I live in NJ. Love your ideas!
Home goods gets lots of interesting seasonal designs here in the south
Very cute 😍 me too use glue stick for that😍🙌🌻🏵🌺🌹🌼
Awesome!! I'm hoping to start journaling but not sure if I can afford it...I want to be able to have all the beautiful things up front...not sure if that's Gona be possible! You do very good work and all your papers are beautiful...maybe one day I'll be able to have some of your beautiful things!!
Lovely
What a fabulous idea! I love the green and gold together. Thanks for the inspiration! ~Velvet
I still have this tool after acquiring it from my great grandmother's bits and pieces. Also good fir flattening garment seams, quilts seams etc.
Just came across your channel . You do a great job of encouragement to adventure into new realms of creativity. Denmark 🇩🇰
So pretty. I have tons of napkins and envelopes. Time to marry them together.
Creative Blessings!
It's a wallpaper roller you use it along the edges that you join on the wall it makes sure that the join is adhered to the wall. You can buy bracers that are wider than the wallpaper one which is better.
Lovely, thank you for sharing.
It’s called a brayer ❤I use one to even out paint on gel press and other creative ideas 😊
Thank you Charlene for letting me know what it’s called! I tend to always find different little ways to end up using it 😆
I am a retired wallpaper hanger and the tool you have is for rolling the seams of wallpaper
It's used by seamstress for pressing down seams.
They look beautiful Nazy, thank you so much for sharing I definitely want to give this a go, I’ve been hoarding a few of my favourite napkins too and what a fantastic way of using them ❤️🤗
So beautiful loved your idea. Thanks for sharing . Definetly i will try it shortly and update you💖
The particular roller you are using is to run over the seams when hanging wallpaper. There is a another kind that is a little longer and not so round called a brayer. I have had my brayer for so long and use it for this very project. Love your napkins Naz.
Thank you for sharing this my dear! I had no idea but now I am more inspired to use it!
Beautiful!
Oh so pretty!
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous ❤
Beautiful, Nazy!💗
Thank you Sharron! 🤗
Beautiful napkins❤ envelops. Your tool is a wallpaper roller used on the seams of the paper.
Yes! Thank you Barb ❤️
Love what you did with the envelopes, I cannot wait to try it! I found the glue stick on Amazon they had white and they had clear I was wondering which one you used. And does it make a differenceWhich one you use. Thank you for sharing .
Lovely💕
The roller is a “seam roller” used when hanging wallpaper
Thank you Sue!
Oh Nazy, what a great idea! I love how the envies come out! So so beautiful! I have lots of napkins for decoupaging and definitely will create some. Do you know the danish brand greengate? They have beautiful patterns on dishes andfabric, but also on napkins!
I didn’t know that brand but will research it as I love collecting beautiful napkins for crafting, thank you Claudia!
@@amitybloom159 I hope it is available in USA!
The tool is an old wallpapering tool. It is used to roll the seams to make sure they are stuck to the wall.
Thank you Susan! Ironic as I love wallpaper but had no idea what this tool was used for
I use a wider brayer like yours to spread paint on my geli plate!
That’s such a great way to use this tool, thank you Debra!
I think it’s a seam roller for “hand pressing” seams while sewing instead or hot ironing
Thank you Ashley! That would be so helpful when I’m creating a fabric journal cover
Very beautiful. Do you seal the napkin after adhering it to the envelope? I seal mine only because I don’t want the napkin to come off after time passes. 🤗🦋💖
I Love this napkin - envelope idea, so pretty, I'mm be checking out my Tuesday Morning store very soon. >wink
Your going to have fun! I love Tuesday morning for crafting supplies 🥰 thank you Sandy!
It is definitely a seam roller. A brayer is a little larger. But people use it for many, many things. In fact, I just bought one and on the packaging it was called a seam roller.
I am a beginner so a couple of questions...How do you apply labels so you can send them in the mail? Make your own? It seems that using plain white labels would take away from such pretty designs...thank-you
These are so sweet. Lovely napkin designs 💙
Thank you so much! Perfect way to use all my collected napkins 🥰
THE ROLLY THING IS A WALLPAPER ROLLER...IM NOT SURE IF ITS CALLED A BRAYER BUT ROLLY TOOLS FOR INKING ARE CALLED THAT..
Thank you for letting me know ☺️
Its so beautiful but why don't you just iron it on it's so much faster. KEEP UP THE BEAUTIFUL JOB 😊
Seals the edges of wallpaper together
your tool appears to be a roller used for sealing wallpaper seams...
Thank you Sandy!
It's a brayer...
Brayer
