What's to keep the oil from becoming rancid over time and what keeps the oil from transferring to other pages? I love the look!

[@craftplanwrite3182]

Not too sure about becoming rancid. But after I dried my pages, I put them in between paper towels sheets to absorb the access oil (which was hardly visible). I also put a book on top of my stack so they really make contact with the dry paper towel. I let it sit in between the paper towels for 2 days, but only because I wasn't ready to use them. I've started crafting with the sheets and don't have oily fingers. (hope that helps)

[@nuvoclassic]

@@craftplanwrite3182 Vegetable oil does go rancid when used for DIY vellum paper - I tried this years ago - the rancid oil stinks - I had to toss all my DIY vellum papers :-(

[@laurier1132]

I would try mineral oil because it doesn't go rancid.

Use baby oil, it is a mineral oil n even smells good

[@wease4824]

First time viewer.....your voice is so soothing....

[@rachellee.9389]

Very pretty but I always have a problem with that type of vellum is that eventually the oil/lotion comes off on other papers. It also doesn't work well with glue. I prefer Nik the Booksmith's spray clear sealer on each side of the paper. No oil stains/residue, works with all liquid glue, and even goes through the printer. In essence, the paper is just like paper but it's translucent - VOILA! You could do reams and reams of paper per can of spray, too. TFS your lovely creations.

[@CreativeGigi]

Your paper turned out so pretty 😍 I use Vaseline instead of the oil & it works great 😊

[@craftplanwrite3182]

Oooo using vaseline sounds less messy 👍

[@CreativeGigi]

@@craftplanwrite3182 yes definitely 😁 I have a video I shared a while ago using Vaseline 😊

[@marlenejones6266]

@@CreativeGigi how long does it take to dry. Seems like it would be greasy

[@CreativeGigi]

@@marlenejones6266 it won't take long ...I make few put them between tissue paper and a magazine or just a pile of paper over it for couple of hours or so in case there was an extra oil... but it won't be greasy just use little oil ...or you can use Vaseline just rub it with it on both sides ....Vaseline is awesome to prevent pages from sticking together in collages and the likes

[@EvBarney]

OH! GOOD THOUGH! Vaseline is unrefined mineral oil and does not go rancid either. It also has no scent. THANK TOU!

OMG! Thank you so much for this tutorial, I finally found a way to make miniature stained glass cheap whit materials I already have. One question though is there any risk for the ink to bleed when applying oil on the printed side?

Great video! I will probably buy oil from the dollar tree store. Awesome video!

[@marlenejones6266]

Not all vellum is thin. Depends on the weight. Thanks for this.

[@anne111963]

HI Just yesterday I was looking at purchasing some printed Vellum, which were 5 dollars a sheet, here in Melbourne Australia... and to find this has saved me so much money that can be used for other things. Thank you so much.

[@EvBarney]

baby oil is mineral oil, which will not go rancid. It does have a scent, so you may find that a problem. You can buy plain mineral oil, but it's pricy.

[@kytastrophe-]

Does this technique work on cardstock? I have some pre-printed cardstock pages that would look better as vellum.

[@reJOYCEful1]

Thank you…I noticed this was made 3 years ago - can you let me know how to see Part 2?

[@bouldergirl528]

Did you ever make a part 2? I couldn't find it on your channel.

[@kanami5038]

I'm having a bit of an issue with mineral oil not drying. I've had it aired out for a few days now and when I try to incorporate it with my other papers, the oil contaminates everything. I've tried pressing it between other card boards and something heavy, but then it starts to lose its translucency and it looks a bit like normal paper again with just a hint of image showing through. Should I just leave it out longer? Or am I missing a step?

Hi Maggie. I watched all your videos and have enjoyed them very much. I see you haven't posted anything for 6 months and was wondering if you're still doing the ephemera swap?
