THANKS SO. MUCH SIS. YEAA.

I use white acrylic house paint or any other colored leftover acrylic house paint for my selfmade gesso, yet I do prefer white as white makes colors of the paint added in my painting to pop. It actually doesn't make sense to use expensive art paint for making gesso. So house paint will do and might even be better. 🤔

When l use just a small amount of anything from a bag, like the plaster, l dip the measuring utensil ( cup, spoon, etc.) in the bag. Using a knife, l level out the amount while still in the bag. Much less mess!

Thanks for taking the time. You didn't have to do this but you did. I commend you!

Thank you very, very much❤

Thank you. ❤

Is it going to dry clear?

I love the idea if using a lint roller. I never thought of that one. Thanks 4 sharing even though I'm watching this video 9 years later. Hope all is well

lovely tutorial, one question, can the project air dry, or do I need a heat gun thingy.?

How long does it keep in the jar?

Is adding water a no-no, cause I added some to my baby powder mix because it was to thick and chalky and it became like starch with water, you know, when ya hit it, it's hard like rock but when stirred gently it's very runny. Why did this happen when I didn't use starch, but used baby powder which is talcum I thought???

I've seen literally 50 gesso recipes on KZbin, and every one is different.

Would you say the plaster of paris or baby powder gives a smoother texture/look?

😂😂😂 plaster of Paris 😂😂😂 Il gesso di Bologna è diventato "plastic of Paris" La storia secondo gli americani è tutta una comica 😂😂😂😂

💚😘😘😘 This made my day.... Thanks a lot...🍀🍀🍀

Thank you soooo much for this! I need to save money.❤

It cracks on canvas on the time ?

Why does my texture paint paste crack, and peel off the canvas?

I know it is a very late comment. I have a question, I'm looking for a very thick modeling paste to create petals and flowers art. Could you please share a video about how to make it or which one to use

Gesso is calcium carbonate and non acrylic paint(tempura), which can be purchased cheaply and mixed together. It’s the acrylized stuff that makes it impermeable and non absorbent. You basically by rights could buy the cheapest water based tempura paint in bulk and add calcium carb(chalk) and get the best gesso super cheap! Adding a bit of matte medium or acrylized primer as a sealer first would make an amazing base on top of wood, Masonite, even artist canvas.

Please stop wiping, tapping, and making extra nervous noises. It’s very distracting for us folks on the spectrum and beyond annoying.

Love the way the homemade texture has soft edging. Very interesting and potentially good to know. Thanks once again. I loked forward to seeing the rest of your videos.

I buy my gesso by the gallon, I liked the effects and possibility effect (worth a try.......right?) . Thanks I will let you know how I make out.

Thank you.

What I use is a paint roller with the size of an empty toilet paper roll onto which I’ve glued the different textures of choice. Obviously the toilet paper rolls are then interchangeable .

Thank you

ThankYou....

i cant believe i was here 3 years ago but here i am was looking for something else but im really glad i found this lol cause ive forgotten about this...

The pink DAP will be very weak until you paint it. The spackle will dry very hard. Use spackle

MyTherapyRoom? Anything but therapeutic for me. What a chaotic and irritating unprofessional presentation.

Lol your camera is upsidedown.

Thank you so much for this information and I would like to ask you if I use polyfilla can add a color for it since when it’s dry it dries white but if I add for example green do you think it will dry green?

I enjoyed this video 😍 many thanks for sharing, especially the use of unusual materials 👌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

really got a kick out of this lady! I enjoyed laughing at the sound effects right akong with her!😃

❤❤❤ thank you so muchhh

What’s the pink stuff called

Thank you for the recipes and ideas. Thank you for showing what happens when heat is applied to the real stuff and the homemade stuff. What is the name of the pink stuff? I didn't catch it.

Can poly filler be used in place of plaster of Paris?

This is not a good idea. Waste of MONEY for me. I have a pro mixer from a LAB and it will not get the chunks of plaster out no matter how lone I mix it. Waste of paint and time. I have to dump it in the trash. DO NOT USE PLASTER! That is my vote.

Instead of a mason jar i use my old empty bottle of store bought gesso i got for cheap at my local buget store

I use gesso for every thing. For my fine watercolour paper for my sketchbook and some times i buy cheap canvasses and i use it for that

Does the gesso and the moulding paste harden in the jar? I am New at this😊😅

Hey, how long can these be stored in air tight container?

That was awesome , thank you

I like the name of your room…. Art is healing . 😊

Thanks for the video i made it and it was exactly like the ready one

Wow I see the difference and I’m grateful for you sharing this video! It’s really is helpful. Plus you save from spending the real stuff already done… thank you again.💫💫💫

Thanks for your tutorial! I too make alot of my own supplies, as I use quite a but and it is more economical for me! 🙃 I have found that Ready-to-Use Joint Compound works the best by far...it gives deep texture and holds up well!! I paint with my hands for the most part and have found that if I finalize my layers by rubbing water over it I don't have issues with cracking!

I have wood glue at home can I use wood glue

I was looking all over for using stucco for texture and I found you, thank you 😊
