I almost chickened out of doing a carved wood look on a hall table. Now that I've seen your video, I know I can do it. - thank you

[@CarrieSmithOriginal]

Deanna, you are probably one of the most genuine makers I’ve seen on any social media. Your skills and ideas are always so fresh and exciting. Your teaching skills are easy to follow. You also show what can happen when we do it ourselves and how to “fix the mishaps”. This is beautiful and so encouraging. Thank you for a GREAT channel and for another gorgeous piece!! Keep going! Let’s get this channel up over 100,000!!!!

[@DIYDEANNA]

Wow! Thanks so much for your thoughtful comment, I appreciate your support! I love teaching and inspiring others so I really appreciate your feedback and encouragement ☺️

[@DesertDIY]

Your attention to detail is just phenomenal

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks for watching Cory!! ☺️

[@kscheuerman5378]

Beautiful Piece!! I love it. I really appreciate watching someone who knows what they are doing. I find there are so many people on the internet who say they aren't a pro, but they still give out advice as though they are. It's extremely frustrating!! I love your black/brown & choc brown dogs, too!!! We have a 17 yr old male fawn.

[@jaxturner6896]

I really enjoy using IOD moulds with paper clay. Once painted and either waxed or sealed, they are durable! Plus you can bend them around corners and cut them while running your design across drawer front... lots of creative fun and vetsatility

[@christyarebalo848]

Very nice! I like that you are not trying to rush through things too fast as you are explaining how you are doing what you're doing.

[@emilyurban2141]

Deanna, your attention to detailing with paint to match the wood of the cabinet is fantastic & amazing. It really does look like it's been carved. I love your workmanship! Looking forward to seeing and learning more from you.

[@karenbaldry8096]

Thanks from a new subscriber. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. This is so beautiful 🤩

[@DebKiwi]

You’re a good instructor (coming from a fellow instructor). Thank you for speaking and instructing clearly with only necessary info to help the viewer achieve good results. Also, thank you for not playing music as I find it very distracting (so many KZbinrs talk with music playing or blast it in between talking causing me to have to continuously adjust my volume). Can you believe I did a similar technique to this in the mid eighties? All good things come back around! :-)

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! You’re right, all good things do come back around!

[@melindap.ullrich4564]

This is my first time seeing a video of yours and I loved it 😍! Thank you for sharing!

Watching you match/create the wood grain on the resin pieces was so cool- makes me want to try it :)

Ditto... LOL

[@kallasusort2986]

I would have never chosen that decor - except the birds - then she put it all together and I loved it. Glad I watch until the end result.

[@LaughingInTiny]

These molds also work exceptionally well with paper clay which can be made easily with cardboard and glue (aka recycling... so free) I've been on KZbin since the beginning and this is one of the very small handful of times I've hit the bell. Love your stuff!!

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks for sharing your casting medium suggestion! And for hitting the bell. :)

[@christinetremblay2353]

This was an amazing tutorial, thanks alot!

[@gigi-jeff]

I just did an apothecary dupe using a two part apoxy moulding clay. I loved it!

[@DIYDEANNA]

Sounds amazing! Thanks for commenting!

[@PCHPatti]

Wonderful! The addition of graining really works after the wax, etc. to mimick carved wood. An observation: From the side you can see some edges of the appliques aren't flush with the surface. Spoils the illusion of carved wood. Should be filled with something to close the gap (caulking? paint? wax?)

[@Christie-gp2cy]

Very nice Deanna. The raised design totally changes the look of the piece. Your tutorials are always interesting and easy to follow. Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to your next video. I love decoupage.

[@DIYDEANNA]

Thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback! I’m glad you are enjoying my tutorials, I’m looking forward to the next one too!

[@MOLLIMEDIA]

@@DIYDEANNA Yes! Definitely. I’m so impressed you were able to remove all the old layers of paint without a stripper. The nightstand looked like it was raw wood. A color gradient would be so striking.

Gorgeous! I love the wood grain idea! I noticed a few spots where a flat part of the appliqué didn’t touch the surface. Using a syringe with epoxy would fill those and prevent them from ruining the illusion.

Awesome job 👏👍 I usually use polymer clay for my furniture molds but that wouldn't hold the screw like epoxy does. Brilliant idea!
