French Cast Iron Planter Part 2 - The Finishes…Crusty and Rusty

[@kimmsoucie8027]

Finding your page a few months ago was the best thing I could have seen regarding different techniques and mind-blowing projects. The man or should I say...woman hours alone has me saying wow, this woman is dedicated. I really enjoy all your projects, this one is absolutely stunning!!!!! I have already placed an order for the liquid rust. I will be making something similar to yours but on a smaller scale. Please keep your projects coming. I have watched many of them and want to continue to do so.

❤️❤️❤️what a piece of art!!! My heart did a flip flop when you spilled that little bottle😂🤣but you did a great save on it. Your mama is going to be so proud to show off this majestic piece… and what you used to creat the different textures takes imagination. Can’t wait to see what your next project is gonna be!!!🥰

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you! I’ve been working in the decorative finishes industry for 24 years, and I’ve had a LOT of mishaps because I can be a Royal clutz! I try not to panic, but I about had a caniption on this boo boo. Luckily, it worked out. I didn’t edit that mistake out of the video because we all make them and I felt seeing the “fix” was important. I still ended up with half a bottle left despite the horrible spill. Momma is very excited to have this piece. We will be taking it with us to Texas on our Fourth of July trip. She’s 90 and has a hard time getting around, so she doesn’t shop anymore for new house items. 🤗

It’s a blessing that your mama is 90🥰 My mama is 88 and I live at home and take care of her. I just recently started crafting as a kind of stress relieving therapy. I’ve learned so much from watching crafting videos like yours and others. My projects is what I call them😂 I just give them away to friends. It brings me joy to see them smile when they get one. I pray y’all have a safe trip to Texas and your mama is lucky to have an awesome and amazing daughter like you Janet. God Bless🥰

@@SouthernRebel414, thank you! I’m equally blessed to have her, too. My father and both brothers are with the Lord.

Watching you peel that latex was soooo satisfying. I gasped when you spilled that bottle😱 This piece is stunning!♥️

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you, Carol! I about had a caniption fit with that clutzy move!🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ Luckily, it wasn’t wasted and, believe it or not, I still have a half of a bottle left. 👍🏻

Well that came out beautiful! We are on a trip to go see my son in Texas because he is leave for the UK. He is in the Air Force. I started laughing so hard when you spilled your bottle because I know the feeling. My husband wanted to why I was laughing so hard. All I could get out was I am glad we just stopped to go to the restroom. I do want to say that it is beautiful. You are very talented. Thank you for sharing. God Bless you 🙏🏼

[@designsbyJ]

God bless your son and we thank him for his service! Our eldest just returned from a year in Africa with his National Guard unit. Thank you so much, Rachel! Yeah…(LOL,) I kept that clumsy mishap in the video because we’ve all done it and I needed to show how I fixed it if it was even fixable. 🤦‍♀️😉👍🏻

[@lynedington5587]

This is so cool! I just knew you were going to knock over that expensive bottle. I have done that more times than I care to think about.

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you! I about had a heart attack! I left the clip in the video because I felt seeing the “fix” was important when big boo boos happen.

[@mariabruce6184]

Stunning.

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you, Maria!🤗

[@alysonsmith6998]

Fabulous, I want it!

[@designsbyJ]

Thanks so much! Well, it’s sold…my 90 year old momma called dibs on this piece. 😉

[@lindy2164]

It's stunning. I've been trying to find out by googling, how to learn about creating the layout/design using all the scrolls etc.

[@designsbyJ]

Thank you so much!

[@gayphares2636]

What’s the price after it’s finished?

[@designsbyJ]

My 90 year old momma called dibs on this one and insisted on paying me for it. I was going to charge $300 if I had put it in my Etsy shop.
