DIY Doll Head Painting! Pinterest Crafts Expectation Vs Reality! (BPC35)

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Well this episode didn't go too well! 😂😂

[@daniiknitter90]

@AnthonyCrammen well done with the wire flowers I could never have figured out how they were made, and the dolls head was so pretty (but also kind of creepy) 😂 great video as always, you never fail to make me laugh, thank you for making my day brighter 😊

[@AnthonyCrammen]

@daniiknitter90 Ah no problem! And thank you! 😊😊

[@Luxinda]

I absolutely *love* the painted doll’s head piece! I never would have thought of creating anything like that, but it is awesome! 🤩 Best line: “my less sophisticated … kinda sh*tty looking flowers” 🤣 You and I have talked about miniatures, and I still want to challenge you to one with a very specific theme 🤔 soooo maybe next year. 😁

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh it was super cool wasn't it?! 😁😁 Haha what can I say, I have flare for words 🤣🤣 Oh I have a miniature-ish thing coming up soon and I wanted to pull all my hair out over it! 🙈🙈

[@Luxinda]

@@AnthonyCrammen oh you definitely have a flare, and it’s gonna make us rich 😄

[@AnthonyCrammen]

@Luxinda 🤣🤣🤣

[@deathbearbrown]

your freaky baby reminds me of a japanese oni mask, it's awesome.

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh I see that! 😁 Ah and thanks Sue! 😊😊

[@fikanera838]

The painted doll's face is my absolute favourite thing out of everything you've made, I think. I love her, & so much want to make one too! 💚🩷🧡

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks! 😁😁 It was really easy to make too! 😁😁

[@vivianmaclean8870]

The doll head is absolutely fantastic.

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks! 😁😁

[@ScientistStudy]

The painted dolls head is amazing! I love the way the colours settled 😍 my 5 year old may find ones of her babies missing 👀 😂

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Haha you'll make it better! 😁😁

[@alexiscrazycrafter5558]

Absolutely love the doll head . The flowers take second place. Winged bugs scary no thanks 😂.

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Haha thanks Alexis! 😁😁

[@truejaneysue8269]

The paintbrush craft made me laugh so hard😂🤣🤣

[@JenniMeer]

I preferred the wire flowers. My brother made one in art class one time and he gave it to me. It’s up on my wall between the pictures of my kids. Looking forward to the next Cooking with Ant episode! One last thing: I hit 9 years seizure free last Friday!! 💜

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh congratulations!! 😊😊

[@Coyo-Tea]

The doll head is phenomenal, I absolutely LOVE it ❤

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks! 😁😁

[@laineykearns4506]

Doll head was fab. Im going to maje one for my brother using items from charity shops. I love how when you're doing a craft you don't really like or enjoy you go on a rant about something! Love your videos, thank you.

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh I'm sure they'll love it! 😁😁 Haha oh I do enjoy a good rant 🤣🤣 Ah and no problem Lainey! Glad you enjoy them! 😊😊

[@kathleenbryant7531]

Dolls face is absolutely fab Anthony.... the flowers you were on it in the end... the other two to be fair weren't bad either... loved your show today x

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks Kathleen! 😁😁

[@EmmaCarinaG]

Those flowers were cute! I'd have yours in my house. Very minimalist, I likey ❤

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks Emma! 😊😊

[@ladyasaid]

The flowers: are made by using the "single line drawing" technique. Remember back in school, you took a pencil and drew a horse, without lifting the pencil from the paper. This is how most of those types of sculptures are made. (But first, make the drawing 🤣😂) Great job on the doll painting 😂 IF humans don't realize your "different", look at the freekin background!! GEEZ, some humans are asleep 😅 LuvZ ya 🇺🇸

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Haha true!! 😅😅

[@carlycharlesworth1497]

Ant, I laughed at the way you described your efforts today. The wire flowers were ok, as was the moth, which looked really difficult to do. However, the baby's head came out sooo much better than the original version. I was impressed with it and I think it looked like one of those Japanese masks, if you know what I mean. That paintbrush just flat out made me laugh tho, it was just so funny looking! Your videos always bring a smile to my face, and I always look forward to them. Thanks for making them Ant! You're a star! God bless you and yours. Have a great weekend!

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks Carly! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁😆 Hope you have a lovely weekend too! 😊😊

[@tracyharper2121]

Loving the makes Ant! That doll painting is stunning! So you!!!

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks Tracy! 😁😁

[@amandafulton6895]

Hahaha!! I actually kinda like the paint brush!! I am definitely making the baby face painting for my sister!!

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh I hated my paintbrush 😆😆 Ah I'm sure she'll love it! 😁😁

[@clairewhitcher2190]

😮 looks like a poppy ... love it!! 👏🏻👍🏻😃 The doll head painting is very different 👏🏻👍🏻😃 The map moth is good 👏🏻👍🏻😃 I would of hot glued it 🤔 The beach scene on a paintbrush isn't to bad 👏🏻👍🏻😃🤗🥰🥰

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks Claire! 😁

[@teresalegum4049]

Anthony my favorite was the baby doll

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Same! 😁😁

[@solitaryguy54]

Hi Ant! 👋 That doll's head is freakishly fabulous! My favorite of the lot. That miniature hodge podge collection gave me a good laugh, WTH! as always, you're very entertaining Ant, keep the videos coming and be well! Have a great week 😊

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Haha thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 😁😁 Hope you have a great week too! 😊😊

[@LostSiren13]

Actually ❤❤❤ the dolls portrait. That came out great. The paint brush I agree…not your fault. Sellers need to put something up to scale on items like that for miniatures. The wire floral sculpture looks like something I’d make. Hahaha. Love it though. Imagine using resin on those to make the floral colorful. All in all love this tutorial. 🥰

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thank you! 😊 Yeah definitely need a scale comparison because those objects were ridiculous! 😅😅

[@LostSiren13]

@@AnthonyCrammen A coin would be perfect for scale comparison. That’s how I judge gemstones quickly.

[@vincentb5391]

I really liked your moth! It was cute! I also have those wire flowers saved to make my own because they're so expensive. Just takes a bit of practice but it's nice to have control over what types of flowers go in the vase

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks Vincent! 😊😊

[@arachne1969]

As always, you are so entertaining! I loved the moth. I'm in the process of moving and will miss seeing you for a while. Behave, be creative and keep on keeping on. ❤

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah glad you enjoyed it! 😊😊 Oh congrats!! Good luck with the move, hope everything goes well! 😊😊

[@louise_barescat]

Obsessed with doll's heads too. Yours turned out so neat, even better than the original, I need to try this 🤣

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks! 😁😁

[@nomadicdragon7157]

7:21 Those are amazing! Oh “Geo Cacher”! Would you ever try Geocaching?

[@AnthonyCrammen]

😁😁 I've seen Geo Caching online, not entirely sure what it is though 😅😅

[@nomadicdragon7157]

@@AnthonyCrammen It’s basically a worldwide treasure hunt! You get coordinates for a geocache, or cache, then you go to that location. Once you get close (a few meters away) you start looking & then hopefully you’ll find it! You get to sign your name & there might be swag (stuff we all get)! You can take something as long as you bring swag to replace what you’ve taken! Then you re-hide the cache where you found it & you’re on to the next one.

[@lynneewer1500]

I liked your miniature paintbrush better than the Pinterest version! And if you worked longer on the wire flowers I’m sure you would have done a great job on those too. I loved the baby doll wall art (not my colours but cute all the same) and the map moth looked ok too. So don’t be too hard on yourself m’dear. I’m very proud of you for having a go. Well done! ❤

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thank you! 😊😊

[@annasmessyart]

They should have done that to annabell . Lol

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Haha! 😅😅

Ant. I found another annoying craft project for you to try. Punch needle. Hahaha. I have a feeling you would get your knickers in a twist with this one!! 😂😂

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh dear! Sounds like a nightmare! 🤣🤣

[@thinkerdreamersketcherspy]

That dollhead thing is *exactly*, and I do mean *exactly*, the kind of object d'art I'd expect to find in your studio. You did amazing with it, better than the inspiration! (i actually thought upon seeing that pub at the start that gold/metallic would be so cool so great minds think alike 😂 -- though i might have done the frame in neon yellow rather than the green)

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Haha definitely my kinda thing! 😁😁

[@gothiccharms]

awww I liked your paint brush better!!

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks! I couldn't stand it! 🤣🤣

I think you did just fine considering you didnt have any instructions. I like the wire flowers and the doll head painting best. Hope the wine helped 🤪

Haha thanks! And it did indeed!! 🥴🥴

[@cblaney3931]

Wire flowers 👍 baby head (I hate faces) but you did a FAB job with that, and you should proudly display it on your wall 👍 miniature doodah - you did the best with what you had lol PS Where did you get the wire from, and does it say what gauge it is? Like how thick it is (not very, unlike me 🤪)

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah thanks! Haha! I just bought it on Amazon, all it says is that it's black aluminium and that it's 1mm thick 😅😅

[@kingmerry10]

Hey Ant, thanks for bringing us the epic 35th edition of the BPC!! I guess tearing babies' heads off is just part of an average day in the studio!! 😂😂 BTW, did you get the little tiny people off Amazon?

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Ah no problem!! 😆😆 And I did indeed, as well as the not so mini beach stuff 🤣🤣

[@kingmerry10]

@@AnthonyCrammen The scale of the beach decor was definitely questionable!! 🤣🤣 Hope you're having a fab weekend so far and your latest project is on a much larger scale!!

[@AnthonyCrammen]

@kingmerry10 Haha! Oh I am indeed! 😁 Hope you have a lovely weekend too! 😊😊

[@mayloo2137]

To be honest, I find single parts of a doll creepy (eg. Toy Story 1). I'm not that good with using my hands to craft things. With the flowers, i had the idea of using a rough outline of a flower or just a petal to create shapes with the wire.

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Yeah they can be quite creepy lol! Oh and good idea! 😁😁

[@lisagreenway8410]

Use a pen to wrap the wire around to make a spiral x

Sir I thought you were doing nesting dolls from your instagram post. Might I suggest that could be a fun video even if done in abstract form

Oh it's because they don't have a regular doll emoji 😅😅 And that could be a fun idea! 😁

I did the same, I broke a new dental bridge from grinding/clenching my teeth. It’s all stress 😟

[@AnthonyCrammen]

Oh it's terrible isn't it!? I have a proper habit of clenching while I sleep 🫠🫠

@@AnthonyCrammen my dentist recommended a Botox injection into my jaw 😲

[@AnthonyCrammen]

@wtglb 😨😨

[@wtglb]

@@AnthonyCrammen I guess it relaxes the ligaments that cause the clenching & grinding. I’m gonna pass on that
