Oh the carbon copy method is GOLD! Everyone else just does their own calligraphy, but I cannot do calligraphy, and I'm left handed which makes it even harder. Thank you so much!!

[@emma-511]

Do you need the canva premium to be able to put in the sizes etc like you did for the first (Bride wooden sign) project? I can't seem to do that. Love this video 😁

[@tamikaallison2492]

Beautifully done. Acrylic, does that means that it won't break easily?

[@foxxybrown291]

Will the chalk hack work on mirror writing??? X

[@aliciafrederick5176]

Hi did the chalk marker last on the the glass?

[@dyanajane1519]

hi for the chair sign, what’s the size of the pine board? this video definitely helps me alot with my wedding preparation

[@alexisstuart4554]

love these tips!

[@tinalemac]

Thank you!!! I hope these helped you with how to use the acrylic frames 💛

[@Lydia-kr2lv]

Sorry i have another question! When you stained your wood, did you do both sides at the same time? Or did you wait for 1 side to dry then do the other? Thanks x

[@valeriesmith454]

Hello!! I am doing as much DIY for my wedding in May 2021. I would love to learn how to do calligraphy for my signs but I am having the hardest time finding big enough picture frames! Where did you get yours??

[@haleystreets]

Micheals or hobby lobby would be your best bet! You can also look online! Congrats :3

[@marymiles4373]

Tina, your videos are so helpful and creative. How do you print from the Canva website?

[@tinalemac]

Hi Mary! You can save the project as a png to your computer and print from there. (:

[@Lydia-kr2lv]

Thanks so much, this is super helpful!! Is there any way to trace a nice font onto the chalkboards as well like the others? I can't freehand the writing, i'm terrible at it 🙈

[@tinalemac]

You can rub chalk on the backside of the piece of paper and trace on top of it like a carbon copy! Works like a charm (:

[@Lydia-kr2lv]

@@tinalemac Thank you!

[@meganschmidt1724]

what font didyou use for bride?

[@tinalemac]

It’s called “Virtual” (:

[@aineem411]

You are amazing.....

[@tinalemac]

Thank you, Ainee 🥰

[@melaniethorne9396]

You’re so talented! So my friend has one of these that has her info on it and I am interested in buying it. Do you have any recommendations how to remove the paint market from the stained wood without it wearing off the stain?

[@tinalemac]

I think that the best way would be to sand it off, but that would definitely remove the stain. It might be worth it to re-stain and re-finish it though! Thank you so much for watching Melanie 💖

[@melaniethorne9396]

Tina Le omg YOURE the best! I will totally try that. I love your videos. My wedding got post poned due to corona... so I’ve had lots of DIY time before our new date

[@melaniethorne9396]

That would be a good video for us brides who are looking to resell a wood sign! Can you do one!?

[@tinalemac]

Thank you girl!! I love that my videos are helpful to so many brides, especially during this time! 💖

[@tinalemac]

I am no longer making wedding content, perhaps in the future if I ever help a friend or family member with their wedding! But I will keep this idea in mind, thanks Melanie 💖

[@XtineBB]

What is the name of the font you chose?

[@harmonyhill4657]

I'm going to check out your IG right now. Thanks Gurl!

[@tinalemac]

Awww, thank you! Hope this video was helpful to you! 💖

[@barbc38]

I just subscribed to your wonderful channel. 🙂

[@tinalemac]

Awww, thank you so much! I really appreciate it 💖

[@SarahBlohm]

It that your own handwriting you use for the words you have in your videos? If not what font it is?

[@tinalemac]

Hi Sarah! It’s my handwriting that I do on Procreate (: For my thumbnails, sometimes I write them and sometimes it’s a font! If you’re looking for a great place for fonts, I like DaFont or Creative Market 💛

[@SarahBlohm]

@@tinalemac I need to work on mine. I've been on the hunt for the perfect font for my wedding invitations but still looking. I've been looking on those sites religiously. Lol

[@vnoemycor]

😍

[@tinalemac]

Thank you!!! 🥰💖

[@celinastoehner5554]

For the chalkboards do they look Grey online to order them?

[@tinalemac]

I think it depends on the seller! Usually I see pictures of them in black but you should always prep them by using a piece of chalk on the entire board!

[@angelabaro758]

You got married the day I got engaged 😭❤️

[@tinalemac]

That is so cool! 🥰🥰💖 Thanks so much for watching!
