This turned out so beautiful! I know it’s been a while but if you work backwards with your colors you’ll get that print on the front. Make your base color last instead of first. But I love it!

[@bandido7994]

Beautiful!!! Next time make sure your table is leveled so the paint doesn't start running to one side prematurely. But I like it, congrats!!!

[@SheWritesHerJourney_]

I love both sides! Beautiful job

[@chaseback5102]

I love how the underside look!!! Looks like expensive artwork

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you!! I'm about ready for another pour 💕

[@user-qu3us9fv2t]

This came out so pretty 💕 thanks for sharing!!!

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you! 😊

[@splifsis25]

I can't stop saying this to u but ur awesome! Wow

[@CarlyKeller]

Aw thank you so much!!! I'm working on another neutrals this week I'm super excited to share!

[@stephaniefernandez4507]

Wow! So beautiful ♡ When you're doing these you should have maybe a canvas piece under to catch the drips to see what it makes ;) how are you getting the cells?? Also white is heavier then all other colors so it goes to the bottom

[@CarlyKeller]

That's a great idea! The floetrol creates all the tiny bubbles and cells!

[@imtisalidrees3427]

this is amazing can you plz tell me ho to mounted this piece on wall ???

[@zhane8018]

Thanks for this! Cant wait to give it a try.

[@CarlyKeller]

Let us know how it turns out ✨

[@a.francis8302]

This is beautiful

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you so much 💕

[@jinnierivera3267]

Love it! Would I be able to wet the side w/o paint where I’m placing the letters so as to slide them around and get the letters nice and straight? TIA

[@CarlyKeller]

Hi Jinnie Try the hinging method when applying: kzbin.info6WxbV_vCLjs

[@meliroro2639]

I loved it 🥰 I find this video perfect for me because I have been wanting to dip my toes in some projects of this sort 😇 loving the paint idea! #Motivated 🥳

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you so much, Meli!! This was a blast to create 🥳🥳

[@thismomof5]

Would it work layering the darker colors first? That way your smooth side would have more of the color?

[@CarlyKeller]

I just starting to play around with these pours but did realize the white paint is heavier! So may have to try the darker ones first, next time :)

[@alisonpendlebury-brown7885]

I believe white paint is heavier than other colours so will sink to the bottom. I recall an artist I follow on fb saying that on one of her videos.

[@CarlyKeller]

That makes perfect sense! I’m not a pro so tips are appreciated 😊 maybe next time I’ll dilute the white more or not use as much

[@alisonpendlebury-brown7885]

@@CarlyKeller I'm no pro either but if you check out mixedmediagirl she has lots of great tips and advice videos. She does all sorts of different pours. What you did looks amazing though. I've been watching a few of your videos and your stuff is awesome. 👏

[@CarlyKeller]

I’ll check her out! Just finished this yesterday and already itching to do another 🤓 thank you for the kind words!!

[@AlishaRayyansPlayhouse]

Beautiful 😍

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you! 😊

[@cecerivera7456]

Would this process work on glass as well?

[@Zoo_pickles]

Awesome video! Do you think I can use this technique on wood and with an epoxy resin on top, just wondering if it will cure properly or any suggestions you may have?

[@CarlyKeller]

Hi Akua! Yes, I think that technique will work with plenty of time between each layer to dry 👌

[@nadialombardo6754]

Beautiful I have been asked by my grandson to do a very large canvas will this work out the same

[@CarlyKeller]

I think so!

[@widalizvega3872]

I was wondering if it would be possible to kind of stick the vinyl underneath the top acrylic but mirrored so that the vinyl would stay more permanently?

[@CarlyKeller]

I'm sure you could! Although the vinyl wont have any issues on top of the acrylic

[@teeteebee4408]

I was wondering this same thing. Did you try it & if so how did it come out?

[@amyhenderson2305]

Wow this is amazing. Does it need to be a white plastic sheet? or can it be clear? TIA x

[@CarlyKeller]

TY! It needs to be clear. The one in the tutorial is clear but has a white protective layer on one side to protect it :)

[@aladdinsr4567]

Cool.! can this technique be used in abstract shape ?. I want to mimic stone by wood. I think will be cool.

[@CarlyKeller]

Yes, I've seen other pours made with all types of shapes and styles!

[@chrisc7566]

So does the float additive dry clear? I would've thought that the black was going to become real light grey

[@CarlyKeller]

It lightens the paint some while mixing (before the pour), so can darken it then if needed!

[@melanietabaqchali2259]

Beautiful skill full work , but after we finish what do we do for a frame ????

[@CarlyKeller]

Thanks! You could always build one yourself!

[@syhu5456]

How do i mix the paint to have such beautiful cells?

[@xoAsHeZox]

How come you couldn't put the wording on the poured side without the extra piece of acrylic?

[@CarlyKeller]

Its really rough and uneven..I dont think vinyl would look very good on it!

[@_.Mahmoud_.]

Nice work 👌

[@_.Mahmoud_.]

When finished, does adding epoxy make it better?

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you!

[@CarlyKeller]

You can add epoxy but I dont like working with it! Its just so expensive and messy.

[@_.Mahmoud_.]

Good job keep going

[@cherylvictor3656]

Hi Is there somewhere that the supplies are listed. These are amazing. Great videos

[@CarlyKeller]

Hi Cheryl! You can find the full supplies list in my video descriptions 😀 Thank you so much!

[@TinaTonee]

Your videos are always so detailed. Another beautiful piece! May I ask what can be used to seal the acrylic paints?

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you so much, Tina! This method doesn't need to be sealed since it is sandwiched between 2 pieces of acrylic :)

[@TinaTonee]

@@CarlyKeller Perfect! Thank you.

[@troublee2]

What size are the acrylic scraps

[@CarlyKeller]

They come in all different shapes, sizes, thicknesses! They charge by the pound on scraps

[@SweetsInHeavenn]

What plastic store do you get your acrylics ? I’ve been looking everywhere! 😩

[@CarlyKeller]

From Plasticare in Colorado! They do ship but it can get pricey. Try googling "Plastic. fabrication store near me" and hopefully will have some options!

[@lilabbyj9297]

How large was the acrylic sheet you used? Love this!

[@CarlyKeller]

Thanks! Its app. 9x16"

[@brCharlieNagy]

Wow, how or where did you print out the letters ?

[@chrisc7566]

Make sure your area is level

[@arronecuyer5461]

If you are reusing the acrylic how do you remove the vinyl ?

[@CarlyKeller]

Just peel off the vinyl with tweezers! Its the same material car decals (good ones) are made from and can be removed without leaving residue.

[@lovely31bluprint]

This nice but where did you get the stand to hold the Acrylic sign?

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you so much!! Its been awhile but I think this was an acrylic stand from Walmart.

[@hairgirl1970]

Do you just have the subscription for the fonts or all?

[@CarlyKeller]

I have the all access and love it! I downloaded so many fonts my first month lol

[@hairgirl1970]

@@CarlyKeller I will check it out. Thanks.

[@ericamartinez2237]

Love your videos. Do you use matte black or glossy black the most for the vinyl?

[@CarlyKeller]

Thanks Erica! I almost always use matte vinyl. It looks more natural and professional in photos :)

[@sallywally8770]

Could you do this on a canvas?

[@CarlyKeller]

I've seen a lot of pours on canvas but not sure how the decal part would look

[@anastasiiashuliak872]

Да

[@CarlyKeller]

Thank you for checking out my channel!

[@zelta2009]

What does a floetrol do?

[@CarlyKeller]

It creates all those bubbles and cells in the paint :)

[@CarlyKeller]

What colors should I try next?!

[@meliroro2639]

Green, Ivory and Gold 😍

[@CarlyKeller]

One of my local clients is using those colors for her wedding 😍 Will definitely try that combo out!

[@taranicole5666]

Emerald and amber/gold please!!! These are the colors of my wedding 🥰🥰

[@CarlyKeller]

So beautiful 💛 sounds like I need to try the green and gold combo!
