I wanted to make mine with the paint on the inside but after watching KZbin videos, I was disappointed when most of them either poured on the outside, used alcohol inks or used nail polish and water to “dip and swirl.” I just came across your video and it was exactly what I have been searching for! Thank you so much, now I will know exactly what to do and all the supplies I need to create these beautiful works of art. I was sitting here, all by myself, talking to the IPad screen, good thing my family wasn’t home, they would have thought I was crazy! “Perfect”, “I know that color combo is great”, tip it over this way a little”. “A little dark green”, I was so excited to watch and see how they changed from the original pour. They were all so lovely, thanks again.

So glad you found the video and you enjoyed it. Happy crafting.

Wow the varnish probably helps adhere the paint, im going to try this as a pour on the outside. Thank you 😊

[@OurUpcycledLife]

You’re welcome 😊

Hi, thank you for the video! I am interested to know, how have these held up since the video was posted? Did they last? Thanks!

[@jennifertaylor7784]

Thanks for watching Jennifer!

[@susanyasinsky930]

I’m going to try these and separate the colors using gold leaf to make them fancy. Might look ok. Fingers crossed.

I did these with my Granddaughter but as they dried some of the paint laced. What can I do to prevent this?

[@psarapsych]

Hi there😊, I'm coming to your video 2 years late😅. I've tried putting paint inside the Bauble but no matter what i do the paint always ends up either pooling or run out and i end up with a thin colour stain. Do you have any suggestions please. Thank you from Ireland 😊🙏😊

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Wonder if there’s an oily film on inside of ornament?

[@psarapsych]

@OurUpcycledLife even when I rinse it with a bit of rubbing alcohol it still pools. I'm trying all types of paint, with and without pouring mediums and only two baubles dried. At the moment I've got 3 and have been turning them for two days. I let them pour out for 15 minutes after working the paint and covering the insides fully. I then have been turning them every half hour to an hour or so and still there is the pooling. If I pour out the rest there'll only be a see through film of colour. Do you use pouring mediums or a particular type of paint? I have Arteza, liquitex and some deco art which isn't easy to get in Europe. All help gratefully received 🙏❤️🙏

[@OurUpcycledLife]

@psarapsych I just used acrylic paint and haven’t had that issue

[@JaneMills14]

They turned out beautiful. Question, did you seal the names after applying them?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Thanks for watching! No you don't need to seal the vinyl

[@janetclaiborne4662]

Do you prep inside with a few drops of windex or alcohol??

[@OurUpcycledLife]

You can but I just washed with soap and water

[@angeladouthitt8837]

A 10cc syringe for putting each color in the ornament would be helpful. My opinion.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes that would work great

[@amyspringer1483]

What a great idea. Would this work inside a wine bottle?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes, absolutely! That would be fun to try! Thanks for watching Amy

[@user-yv9hu8bw9y]

What did you use to write the names?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Cricut

[@lunawolfheart336]

Know I know what to do with all those plastic ornaments I bought. The original idea did not work as I was going to put mini dice in them but the opening is a bit to small.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Perfect!! Glad to help out . Thanks for watching

[@StephanieCrowell-r8r]

I did these with my Granddaughter but as they drained and dried some of the paint laced. What can I do to prevent this?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I haven’t had that happen
