The great thing about Petroleum Jelly is that it has no PH because it's just hydrocarbons. This means it shouldn't yellow your paper either. When you add the alcohol to it, you're just removing some of the water. It's considered a soft parafin wax and it comes from refined petrol. The only thing is that in some cases it could darken the paper. I tell people stuff like this a lot- Many of the products that have been co-opted into scrapbooking are either already art mediums or stuff you can get at the hardware store. I saw an amazon review for texture paste where a kid used it to spackle a project that was supposed to look like a wall. Wall spackle itself only costs about 3.00 for a small tub of it. It just goes to show you that it's easier to sell people on products if they are used to specific brands.

[@TosaNewsense]

Belinda Short - thanks for that tidbit! I love learning. Now I’ve found 2 people to subscribe to on this post (more experiments, Pink Poodle Crafts!). crossing my fingers this works! And that I find my tub of Vaseline!

[@ClareCreationsAL]

You are freaking brilliant!!! Your thought processes amaze me! Love this DIY! I bought some DMG 6 months ago because I didn't think there was an alternative. I have been trying NOT to use it because I worried about the expense of replacing it! Now I don't have to worry! Amazing. Thank you so much for sharing!! Keep sharing! From a person who is disabled from MS, these money saving tips are a blessing!!!

[@cutflower36]

I took your concoction and then I took a cheap white candle and melted some of it down and and mixed evenly. this is even better! Thanks again

[@amandajoyr1]

you are genis, another money saver.

[@canadianeastcoster7117]

Going to make this on the weekend. I'm in the process of watching all your videos. Your the type of teacher I needed for all the neat inexpensive tips. Now I have you. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@berkbuns]

I’m late to the party, but this is awesome! And Tim Holtz buffs his distress micro glaze with a paper towel after application, too.

[@nm9412]

The actual recipe starts at 6:00

[@damepasty9203]

This is awesome, thank you! I'm new to this and just bought a bunch of Distress inks and was VERY disappointed to find they smeared with mod podge.

[@CreativeGigi]

Dame Pasty water-based inks always react with water use aclyric medium instead of the mod podge and everything will be ok 👍😊

[@cherylcullen9087]

Wow!! This is awesome!! Kristina Warner uses the distress micro glaze on he envelopes she make by hand...I had never heard of the stuff before...in the comments section on one of her videos some one said chap stick worked the same as the glaze. But you mad science recipe looks to me to be the best!! Btw...what you made looks exactly like the distress micro glaze...exactly like it!!!!! I did recently purchase the glaze instead of the chap stick...but I'll be using your recipe when my container runs out!! And I saw Tim Holtz do the stencil to....this is soooooooo awesome....are you a scientist for real??? Lol!!! Thank you so much the DIY distress micro glaze!! So cool Stacey!! 🦋🦋🦋

[@CreativeGigi]

I use aclyric medium over any water-based inks and I use Vaseline to prevent my pages from sticking when l close my art journal 😊

[@toriswanson5451]

HOLY COW!!! THAT IS INCREDIBLE. thanks

[@truthbetold4178]

👏You are a thinker...a wise woman! Thank you so much~💐

[@Greyhounder200]

you saved me $ 9.00 dollars by doing this video.Thanks for the tip.I made some and i love it.It is cheaper than the Tim Holtz Distress Micro glaze.Joan

[@mzfierywoodsprite2511]

Made and used some. Your a genius. Thank you so much. Saved some buckaroos

[@ethicsexistentialism4191]

GIRL... You are amazing! 👍😉😇 These branded art materials cost the Earth... Yet usually made from cheap ingredients. THANK YOU!🙏

[@Schmeela]

Love the resist technique. Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@shellyscherbarth3619]

I recently die cut some butterflies, watercolored them with distress ink and now wanna with gloss medium without smearing my ink; although I don’t need to make my own micro glaze (at this point in time anyway) your video is the only one that answered my exact question...”will a sealing medium adhere over micro glaze?” So thank you 💞

[@heatherschye2469]

This is a life saver! I have recently switched to gouache from acrylic due to health issues. This will allow me to do mixed media without everything reactivating. I hope you know how smart you are! Thank you so much!

[@geoffreymiler6624]

[@laurasil]

OMG girl....I was just looking at this on Amazon last week and thinking about buying it. Now thanks to you I don't have to...I can make my own! SCORE! Thanks so much for sharing and I love the resist it is AWESOME!

[@hellenic.h1168]

Ooh yeah I See What U See so so damm cool ur da bomb hunny Thanku so so much for sharing Sharing is truely Caring with the crafty peeps:)):)):)):)):)):)).

[@cutflower36]

I was thinking 🤔 it got to be something simple to use, rather than buying that glaze. I will try it. Thanks

[@lorimcgarrity2146]

That's really great. I love your willingness of always trying to make your own versions of some of these popular products. I just fell in love with you after making my gelli plate from your directions. :)

[@jillkent6134]

So glad you made this video I just looked at the price of micro glaze and you can tint it to make it vintage with a little brown, awesome indeed

[@elizabethgoodhand7828]

I agree it is awesome and the micro glaze is really expensive in the UK for such a small pot.

[@bettinaullbrich8743]

Thank you very much for your successful experiment. It safes us a lot of money. Regards from Germany

[@ElizabethBrittBBsButterfly]

Okay...the resist is AWESOME! I can't wait to try this out. Thanks for being the mad scientist!

[@lamoncheri5823]

OMG!!! I was having a really rotten day, one of those "I just want to curl up a cry" days. And this is such a great discovery you've shared, that I'm giddy with excitement and can't wait to locate a small jar so I can play. 😃 Thanks a hundred times over and keep up the great job.

[@IrisGLopez]

In my opinion, your idea rock!

[@cindyhenry1410]

I just watched the TH video and he did rub/buff the glaze after applying it. But as I was watching “Vaseline” popped into my head.....but then I thought how would you keep it from getting all goopy.....then I saw your video! Tyvm for the tip on alcohol! New subbie too 😃❤️🦋💜

[@REVTERAMANI]

Awesome! Thank you Stacy!

[@frankieleal4145]

How did I miss this!! Thank you for being a mad scientist!

[@CarolReidCA]

Thanks! I'd think it would have resisted acrylics, but with the alcohol, perhaps not??? Might be a different type of alcohol, or perhaps they use an emulsifier if the alcohol doesn't change the petroleum jelly, but well worth playing with it! Awesome sauce!!!

[@sandyfranklin1123]

This is an awesome discovery!!

[@craftysquirrel2958]

Didn’t know micro glaze existed but I’m definitely making some, so handy thanks 👍🏼!

[@SUSSDUE]

great! Just makes me angry I just ordered a Rangers pot... But now I know better than to order more! Thank you so much for showing this and helping us save money and have fun!

[@Danadane314]

I love them apples!!! Genius!

[@paprluvr]

Hi Stacy. This is awesome. I saw another video where someone used plain petroleum jelly but adding alcohol is even better. In the other video it was used to seal inkjet printables both front & back to avoid water from messing up the ink. I wonder if cardstock could be sealed to be used for a stencil after shapes are cut out. Resist is a great idea. I'm definitely going to follow ur instructions. TFS. Tere

[@BelindaShort]

This would definitely work with cardstock, you would just need to be slightly careful because petroleum jelly is a little bit of an emmolient and it may penetrate whatever you cut, which can make it slightly softer and easier to tear. . Emmolients get between fibers like oil. I'd use it on something like cold press watercolor paper where it's more likely to sit on top rather than to get into it. Cardstock tends to be thinner rather than dense.

[@suesweetpea7]

Awesome, another DIY I will be trying. Thank you Stacy you rock!!

[@MaggieValera]

I tried this DIY, and I prefer the original Chapstick in the black & white tube.

[@devilblueduke]

cool thx for the tip I'll try both

[@clairefraserbavin8055]

@Maggie of House Valera Do you have to mix the Chapstick with anything, or do you use it neat?

[@cutflower36]

Good idea

[@NoteSpinner]

i'm learning about all of these mediums and this one is an answer to prayer !!!

[@scrapcathy868]

love it. Well done you for working it out.

[@Peggy462]

OMG! This is amazing! I am so going to try this. I'm so busy anymore I don't get much time for crafting. But after watching this I am going to have to make time. The things you do are amazing and creating things like this to save money, awesome. Thank you for this and all your videos! TFS Hugs, Peggy

[@lindabeebe7065]

Well lady, thank you🙏 so much. I will be having a play with materials today. You are such a darling sharing with us, knowing we don’t have a wealth of money to buy gesso, Ranger products etc. You allow us to play when otherwise cost may prevent it.

[@DebbyLong777]

Great idea.

[@susandickson9869]

I bought Dorland's Wax Medium, 4 ounces for just over $10.00, from Amazon. It is the same product and I love it. The only issue I have had with it is that I made a die cut with Xyron adhesive on the back and really had to burnish it from behind. Since the person I sent the card to never acknowledges getting my cards I will never know if it held up. I like your DIY version, but I am nearly 65 and likely won't use up the Dorland's before I die!

[@onlyamruta]

Hey this is so super cool and awesome... thank you so much for sharing ❤️😘

[@nuvoclassic]

Just what I needed to know: Alcohol + petroleum jelly mixture. The chemist in me loves this!

[@PinkPoodleCrafts]

Im a chemist at heart.... not a real chemist mind you, just a pretend one lol for craft purposes, ive made many DIY hacks for things that are typically store bought like the distress oxide sprays, the tim holtz texture resist spray, clear gesso, among others... i love discovering new things to make :)

[@MaryGadsby]

very exciting, thank you!

[@pelicanstreetdesigns7953]

Thank you for this video I will be trying this recipe, love to save when I can. love ya keep up the great videos

[@randigerber1926]

She mixed isopropyl alcohol with vaseline.

[@janetteaguirre-terry2986]

Wow!!! That is amazing! Just stumbled on this video. I have to go buy some petroleum jelly. Thanks for sharing! Awesome!! Hope all is well with you.

[@robinjohnston7986]

Brilliant! This was a cool video! Thank-you!

[@javagirl54]

Brilliant! TFS!

[@deborahanne9793]

Amazing! I love this as it takes away the chalky white powder when blending with Oxides.

[@paulinematthews7468]

Thank you so much that is very helpful

[@sweetnsassyscraps]

That paper came out really Pretty.

[@MsChareng]

You are amazing!!!!!

[@isabeljohnston5020]

Awesome. I don’t need it to be acid free or archival since I’m just making cards. I can see several applications for it. Thanks for sharing. I love your tutorials.

[@joannbrewer8314]

That's pretty awesome...
