DIY Farmhouse Window | Tips For Adding Vinyl to Glass

[@goodvolks2know372]

I haven't jumped into the world of "Cricut" - but seeing this video helps lower the fear of it all, haha. The window turned out lovely.

[@plumcrafty4348]

I have to say that this is the absolute best instructional video on how to transfer vinyl to glass! Way to go and thanks for sharing your technique!

[@TheDailyDIYer]

Oh yay!! Glad I could help!

[@lorie8437]

REALLY beautiful gift that will last a lifetime.

[@sherimayberry3096]

Love, love this. I just recently made a shadow box for my niece who recently bought a new house. I mirrored my vinyl words so I could put it on the back of the glass. The reason I decided to do this was so they would be able to clean the glass and it would not miss with the vinyl. I plan to add pictures into the shadow box and will try post pictures on Facebook group or Instagram when I'm done.

Sheri Mayberry if I mirror my words I can put the words on the inside of my glass

[@claudiavessel2691]

Sheri Mayberry was it difficult to apply the vinyl from behind? Since it’s not facing you when applying?

[@Shebelieved]

Hi ! Do you love the shiny side down when you mirror ??

[@lorie1111]

Keep coming back to your video for instructions ty

[@31janicke]

Wow that is gorgeous. Shes so lucky to have had such a beautiful window!

[@katz4me960]

This turned out so beautiful. What a lovely gift. I have an old 4 paned window that my dad stained/distressed for me and put a mirror behind. Love it.

[@meiy09]

Awesome! Soo helpful because my vinyl always comes out crooked! This will help a lot! 😊

[@KMAMomma]

This could not have come at a better time! I have 10 old windows to do and this will make it so much easier!!

[@Lauras0801]

That looks great! That's the method I always use. It came in handy when I applied an anchor with rope behind my side rear window on my Jeep Renegade.

[@christinepemberton5077]

I do chalk painting! This would be great with a mirror spray paint, loosely painted on the back, and a chalk paint painted over that and sealed! This is beautiful! The mirror spray and paint would give it a country glam look!

[@whitewaterannie]

Spraying the glass with Windex and then applying the vinyl is another way... This way you can make any necessary adjustments to the graphic and then squeegee out the liquid and air bubbles and let alcohol in windex evaporate. Works great.

[@susandavidson3610]

Ann K don’t you need to use paper transfer tape for wet application?

[@whitewaterannie]

No, I just spray the surface with windex and then place the decal on... If it's not perfect, you can move the decal to the exact position, I've even taken the whole decal off, resprayed and reattempted for the perfect position. Then I careful squeegee the remaining liquid out and let dry. Its super easy and very forgiving. Give it a try.

[@michellehedge39]

Wow! I am so happy that I watched this before I made my first glass project! Thank-you!!!!!

[@nickygus00]

Really smart idea !!! Thanks for sharing with all of us

[@aracelisescalona150]

Gorgeous! Wish I had an old window. Lol Thanks for sharing. Blessings

[@gabriellemaggio2361]

Wondering what font you used for the names...it’s beautiful!

[@gloriafields4328]

I absolutely love this. It gives me an idea for putting my grandson's picture behind a glass to look like a picture frame with his name and birthday under it. Do you think it would be hard to get a picture to stay in place?

[@MsCurliegirlie]

What an awesome tutorial!!!! Thank you!!!

[@tinamoss273]

Thanks for the tip! Enjoyed the video.

[@susandavidson3610]

Could you use the wet application and use paper transfer tape ?

[@sandrajeffrey944]

Brilliant!!!! Thanks for the information. Super helpful for the project I'm about to do.

[@maryjanew20]

Beautiful project and a great method. I’m confused by the date!?

[@vanetica84]

IS THE TRANSFER BEHIND THE GLASS OR IN THE FRONT? THANKS FOR SHARING

[@tatianaschwegler3898]

Beautiful!!! Thats a great video. Thank you for sharing.

[@princessalways4eva]

Love it! I've actually wanted to do something like this but we're trying to move so I'm holding it off. Great job!🎉🎉 Tfs sweetie. Have a great weekend. Hugs-Kristina🤗

[@pinklove2010]

Their anniversary is in two days. Happy one year to them!

[@shellydwatson]

Thank you for doing this video! Great idea! Love the window!

[@marylesueur868]

well that's pretty much brilliant!

[@ADanaShalabi99]

What font did you use?

[@BreckGirl04]

Gorgeous!! And great tips!

[@catchdq5341]

Love this....How do you secure the glass to the frame? I have tried to use my glue gun but it seeps out and shows on the front and looks like a mess. Thank you.

[@christinepemberton5077]

I'm fixing to do some old farm house windows. The caulking has gone bad in them, and they're loose! I tried glaziers, but they're still loose! I'm going to scrape as much of the old caulking out as possible and recaulk them to secure the glass. They say you have to wait 24 hrs after you recaulk before you do your art on them to be sure they're dry.

[@priscillaegan8172]

When working with glass like this, do you guys mirror the vinyl and add to the ‘inside’ of the glass? Or do it on the outside? I want to make a WiFi sign and I’m scared my 6 year old will pick at it like she’s been picking at other vinyl!

[@TheDailyDIYer]

If you can mirror I would suggest that.

[@66935brent]

I love this video! THANK YOU!!!!!!

[@ashtongarner2405]

Can you use vinyl without the machine or is there some other kind of letters you can use?

[@kathybrooks4270]

What if on wanted to put that on back of window. Wha do I set my cricut on

[@karynwest6385]

What font is "Rebecca" done with?

[@pauaolson]

This was sooooooooo helpful. Thank you!!!!!!!

[@kathybury6806]

We have trouble finding old windows in Australia and I was wondering if I paid you to make and send me a window like this, if you could?

[@ADanaShalabi99]

And did you use a cricut?

[@v.y.9937]

That’s beautiful!!! Do you use a Cricut?

[@drewkim2]

Thank you for sharing this video. It was very hellpful.

[@b2gBandCamp]

Brilliant!!!

[@KathyGwosdz]

[@AndreaSawdey]

Great tip!

[@vanessav9693]

Awesome!!! Love this! Thanks for the excellent tip! Can’t wait to try it out:)

[@debralansdowne6929]

Where did you get the transfers? I would like to order something too

[@gabrieladelcid9357]

How do you get your letter? Do you print them?

[@tazachary89]

I love this!!

[@SuperStarSweeti]

GENIUS!!! Thank you!!

[@cassandrad7442]

Do you use a silhouette? I have a silhouette and am having trouble with script font getting caught and lifting as the machine is cutting. May I ask what settings you use? I am currently using the cutter at 1 - speed:5 and thickness:10. Thank you!!

[@TheDailyDIYer]

+Cassandra D Try these settings: Blade 3, Speed 8, Thickness 8 ☺️

[@elizabethmims568]

Love LOVE!

[@sharondamajor7946]

Can you tell us the size for your large letter and your names?

[@scottpowell2829]

Thank you so very much!!!!!

[@horrisajones8933]

Nice job!

[@jeangeorge3143]

Beautiful

[@chantalkeating1234]

is there anyway of putting it on the other side so you can't feel the vinyl when you are looking at it?

[@jackiehay1258]

Thus is what I want to know also

[@elsagarcia1]

Thank you for the tip!!!

[@michelemorgan5118]

Love it

[@vickiesizemore6922]

love it

[@RamsSalon]

Mine had a bubbles. Need help

[@NesterBug]

Love love tyfs

[@GG-uk3dn]

Thanks! I see these appliques ON glass and looove them but i have two questions if you dont mind-- 1-is there a vinyl that is sticky on the color side so you can stick to glass from behind and have the wording seen through the glass rather than on top of it? 2-Loove the look of old windows but my ocd mind wonders about lead paint on old windows (chippy or sanding the paint/creating lead dust)--etc--makes me pause to buy old painted house fixtures THANK YOU-have a great day

[@homesteadingprofessor4291]

I love this too. But the lead does give me pause. I have small children. I think if I put it high where they cant reach it. It should be ok.

[@christinepemberton5077]

You can seal the window frames with a clear seal and it prevents anything already on it from harming anybody.

[@cocobellediwa]

Gorgeous 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@priscilatrimble1320]

Hello! Where did you buy the names

[@katherine.melody]

They are created with digital cutting machines that use computer software to create designs and then will use specialty blades to cut the design out of vynal, paper, cardstock, iron-on fabric, etc. Largest brands I know of would be the Silhouette or Cricut machines. You can find at michael's or other crafting stores to connect with your computer at home (but they are fairly pricey). I just bought the Cricut Maker and I LOVE it! Definitely worth the investment for me.

[@elfcraftvinylswindon4014]

[@traceyleicester3875]

[@KellyTrayah]

That is so clever!!! Thank you for the tip.
