I was looking for an idea to make for friends who just got their house and your idea is perfect! Thanks!

[@AmyMakesThat]

so glad I could help!! glad you loved it!

[@Ladyspice64]

Great work

[@denniellehannah7915]

If you use a wood conditioner first before you go in with the stain it will come out way better! I had the same issue when I stained and was so unhappy with the results until I did some more research and figured out what I did wrong. Great video I did subscribe I’ve been binge watching your videos. Your amazing!

[@ned3832]

Thank you!

[@Faithfullyhis91]

Love this

[@AmyMakesThat]

[@cynthiag805]

Wow thank you for sharing. I was wondering why my last project bled ! I will have to get some poly !!! Thank you !! 😊

[@kristinastichter8531]

I just tried it. Worked like a charm. No bleeding.

[@ingridb7381]

Actually, I'm planning on making a similar one as a 50th wedding Anniversary gift this spring! It's not just for Newlyweds! :)

[@lindaketner2509]

[@cynthiamott5152]

Great job

[@AmyMakesThat]

Thank you!!

[@buffteen10]

I got all the materials ready! I don’t want to stain my wood pieces, do I need to do anything to them before I start the stenciling? It looks like your stain has some sort of wax on it, so I wonder if I need to apply a thin coat of the polyurethane before doing any of the work?

[@mariaravaioli4187]

It’s beautiful and I’ll have to give it a try. Did you cover the nail heads on the bottom of the tray so it doesn’t scratch the surface of the table you put this on?

[@AmyMakesThat]

I did after with some felt! no scratches over here 🙅

[@talk2yous6]

You done a beautiful job! I’m also making these and was wondering.... why you choose to paint instead of polyurethane over the letter? Have you trying both ways. I’m assuming it will just lay better. Again beautifully done!

[@AmyMakesThat]

Hi! I personally wanted to paint the M and apply polyurethane so the last name in vinyl will stick better! If I painted the last name, it might not have looked as crisp or nice. Hope this helps!!

[@karendehuarte9998]

This will be a perfect gift for a friend of mine that just bought a house. I noticed the polycrylic is water based. Can the tray be lightly washed? Will it wash off the coating? Can't wait to try this!!

[@AmyMakesThat]

Hi there! It can most certainly be lightly washed - I use it for decorative purposes only so I give it a good dusting & spray it with cleaner every now and then.

[@haleyfedorowicz5868]

What type of vinyl did you use for the M?

[@cichrisphotography]

Just curious, but why did you use removable vinyl on this product vs. permanent?

[@sheenakulikowski8690]

Is there anything you could put on top of the vinyl when finished that’s food safe in case they want to serve food directly on it?

[@AmyMakesThat]

Hi Sheena! This tutorial is strictly a decorative piece since I am using vinyl, paint, & polyurethane as a coating. I believe the best way to make this “food safe” would to use resin.. but please don’t hold me to that as I’ve never worked with resin + am not 100% sure!

[@kellieflores9044]

I loved this video. Can you achieve the same thing with the Cricut Joy?

[@AmyMakesThat]

Hi Kellie! Since this wood circle is larger than the Cricut Joy dimensions, you unfortunately cannot. HOWEVER, you could find a wood rectangle that is smaller in width and longer in length so you can make it with the Cricut Joy! :)

[@kaitlincowan1384]

Beautiful! How long did you let the polycrylic dry before painting?

[@AmyMakesThat]

thank you so much! It was maybe about 15 minutes or so? If you have the tray in the light you can see when it dries fully too!!

[@MrsMarissaJones09]

@@AmyMakesThat How did you get the vinyl stencil to stick with the stain being oil based

[@kamerynscroggs2319]

When putting the name on the white letter, my transfer tape pulled off some of the paint! I had let the paint dry overnight so I’m not sure why that happened. Any tips?

[@staceymack5117]

If you don't mind me asking....How much do you charge for this? I always struggle pricing items!! Can't wait to try, your tutorials are amazing and very informative!!

[@AmyMakesThat]

Hi! I have not sold this item so I can’t give a fair answer- if you’re looking to I would suggest adding up the total cost to make it and see how long it took you to make it to try and give a fair price! Thank you for watching 🤎

[@ozykiwi]

i am in Australia and love this, not sue if we have the same materials , you said you have to apply something over the M before painting but I didnt catch what you called it , marpage ?? but said you could use the acrylic , is it similar to a clear varnish ?, thank you

[@AmyMakesThat]

Mod podge!

[@ozykiwi]

@@AmyMakesThat thanks'

[@TheCalicoalicat]

Should a coat of poly be applied over the vinyl to protect it?

[@AmyMakesThat]

hi! depending what you use it for, you can! it's personal preference. Since I used permanent vinyl it will be OK! permanent vinyl lasts for up to 10 years on surfaces!

[@johnbatista45]

Question, when you sealed the paint did the stain lift into the white paint? I've tried to do the same thing but the stain lifted and my white paint started turning brown.

[@AmyMakesThat]

hey there! and oh no, not at all! Mine is still a bright white.. how long did you wait to paint yours after staining??

[@cassiestretton9330]

After the vinyl do you need to seal it again if you are using it as a cutting board?

[@AmyMakesThat]

Yes I sealed it at the end and I would definitely seal it! In your case I wouldn't use vinyl and do paint for everything.

[@shelleypetersen1608]

Amy what did you seal it with that is food safe?

[@gabrielachavarin2939]

Is the polyurethane water based?

[@alejandralivinalli7978]

Is the polycrilic food safe? Can you place food directly on this?

[@AmyMakesThat]

I stated that this is for decor use only! If you plan on using this for food you definitely should use some kind of epoxy or look into a product that is safe for food!

[@angelamananhaya3624]

Did you use a printer or just cricut?

[@AmyMakesThat]

hi Angela! I just used my Cricut for this project :)

[@angelamananhaya3624]

@@AmyMakesThat thank you😊

[@_JediKnight]

I was going to like the video but it has 665.

[@debbymccormack6525]

You wasted a lot of vinyl. Cut what you don't use off before you weed to use later! Your tray is beautiful.

[@AmyMakesThat]

Haha, I know! I usually cut it off, but I didn't in this video 🙈but thank you!
