For those who are not fans of the "umm"s and the poor editing in this early video, feel free to check out my remake! I feel like it is much more put together and doesn't have music to blast your eardrums. Thanks! kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3uaZXyBmb-SoZY

The Umms didn’t bother me as much as the cold cider on your gorgeous wooden table. 😆🤣 I could hear my dearly departed gran say to you, “Get us both a coaster, and bring me a 7&7 on the rocks and let’s make some shit!”

[@maddiekain7728]

@@trinitiyoung333 sounds a lot like my husband's grandma. Except instead of crafts, it was coloring books, and instead of alcohol, it was weed. 🤣 She was one of my very best friends. Hope this finds you well. 💚

I liked everything you said and was impressed by your ability to talk in long segments without forgetting etc so please don't worry

My wife did something like this to the back of our 50 gallon fish tank. She painted a Van Gogh “Starry Night” using neon blues, yellows, and florescent white. It’s GORGEOUS!!!

[@Emmanuel-uw1pm]

I'd love to see it

[@dragonflyer59]

do you still have the tank?

[@ironfae]

@@dragonflyer59 Unfortunately no. My oldest daughter took it to college with her. She’s an art major.

[@edgar-j6h]

never noticed the umms. good work!

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

The words to add to your vocabulary are: opaque & translucent. Great project and technique that I’m going to do. I plan to use metallic copper acrylic for my faux leading. ✌️🇨🇦👍

[@flowerchild777]

Thanks! Great alternative to that black👍Thanks for sharing your suggestion

[@AnotherCatLady-]

You very well may have saved my sanity. I found a great deal on a gorgeous old six paned window that I had intended on painting with acrylic flowers. I'm no artist and I've been losing my mind trying to paint something I liked and that would do justice to my window. Thank you so much, I'm totally trying this. 💙

[@cynthiakarazim2197]

We just had new windows installed in our 1890’s home and I’m going to paint some of the old multi-pane windows for a “stained glass” garden accent and a vertical sun filter on the front porch. Thanks for the inspiration and tutorial, I am so psyched!

[@craftswithpaige222]

I've had a few people mention it in the comments, and I want to apologize for all the "umm"s in this video! This was one of my first projects and you can tell I wasn't very comfortable with the camera. It's similar to the pressures of public speaking. In retrospect, I could have rehearsed my words more and maybe even tried to edit some of the umms out. I hope you all still enjoy watching the video and I encourage you to check out some of my more recent videos, there's a better flow to them and I've been working hard to decrease my umms! EDIT: I also hear you about the bad and loud music. Stated above, this was one of my first projects and the video/music editing needed some work. The music is different and has a more consistent volume in my newer videos.

Jessica Schlienz Hi, Jessica! 👍

[@barbkrejca]

Thank you for sharing, Paige. I'm curious to find out what you think would happen if instead of paint/glue to fill in the design, I filled in the space between the black lines with colored resin?

[@PoliceCam911]

Thanks so much, I have a lot of windows for a school bus and think I'll give this a try. God bless

[@amandajones6481]

I LOVED this video. I find that white always comes out opaque. Another way to hang your work is to put the glass back into its' frame, if you have it. Thank you for a great video. 🙂👋❤🇭🇲

[@CheriBomzArt]

Then how do u hang it? Just prop it up?

[@cynthiakarazim2197]

Wonderful tutorial! It’s gorgeous!

now, it's really a cool idea, that I thank u from my heart, cause I needed it badly.....

[@DaisyJune6]

Beautiful

[@flowerchild777]

Lovely👍 I would have added pearl to the white for shimmer or swirl but it looks nice. A couple of chains and eye hooks on a frame should do nicely, but what do I know😉

[@GardeningwithRoshni]

Even I have my early videos in which the sound was too loud and editing was poor. Hats off to your creativity. Loved watching your video and got to learn so much. Keep sharing 👍👍👍

How much black dye color do you add to the white glue?

[@bernadettearellano5698]

I just came across this. I think it is amazing. I cannot wait to try it.

[@margaretstewart4125]

Very nice. If you want it totally transparent just use food colouring with the transparent glue. I love the soft colours in the sun.

[@pictishell]

It will fade very quickly

[@badri7108]

I really enjoyed your tutorial 👌

[@fotonmom]

I appreciate your effort here. It is lovely--people are picky, I guess about the rest of it. { I don't care about music or 'um's--as long as you are willing to share. } I used to cut stained glass , years ago. Expensive and dangerous. And the pieces were so heavy! I did watch another lesson on this craft. But it was all ink and glue. As one that crafted realy glass..most my pieces were a combo of see through and opaque glass. So with the acrylic paint color in glue and..the ink in glue--it should be a nice effect of a realistic piece.Great job. Now I know what to do with all my spare frames..

[@timonsix]

Wow turned out great

[@33sunstar]

I like it! Very cool and looks like something fun to do.

[@sharon3017]

I had to keep turning off the very loud music. Picture is great.

[@RonnieMclassics]

Thanks so much for sharing your creativity. Also I would think one could maybe use silver (maybe a metallic silver) or a shade of gray paint instead of the black for the outline. To give it a lead outlined look. Just asking 😊 Also if I may ask what is the ratio of the glue and paint or does it matter.

[@craftswithpaige222]

You could totally use whatever color you’d like for the outline! In my remake of this video, I use copper and it looks metallic too. And the ratio of glue to paint depends on how transparent you’d like your colors. More paint = more opaque. I’d estimate a 5:1 ratio for a colorful yet transparent look. Hope this helps!

[@katwilliams9452]

Thank u so much. I couldnt find the reg stain glass paint bc they dont sell it anymore. This looks fabulous! I hang mine by putting it back into the pic. Frame. I get this pic. Framing kit with these little eye that screw into the frame. Then I go tonlowes and get this small chain with certain amount of length I choose and add it to the little eyes I screwed into the pic. Frame. It works very well!

[@CheriBomzArt]

With what?

[@olibhe1]

I loved the video thank you. Since I am not good at drawing I think I might be able to do something like that as I could free lance the design

This is a great video! Thank you for the tips that will help as I try this project; I'm very appreciative! You seem very personable and were easy to listen to. New sub!

[@maureendiederich4571]

If you like the original frame, or decide to paint the frame I'm going to put the stained glass back in it. I will use a very strong glue. There will be no need to clip the glass to the frame. This might be a safer way to hang it to the window.

[@stevetilbrook3402]

Simple easy and good..

[@cjmac9279]

Enjoyed the video and it helped to see you used a sealant first. I'm just starting out with my painting and not sticking to glass very well. I'll watch for more videos from you and other things you create. **don't worry about the "um's" etc... Didn't bother me. ;-) Thanks again for sharing your videos and talent.

I thought I was the only one with a bottle cap windchime. Very cool

[@rheaanglesey6913]

Loved the pattern and the cool pastel shades you used. 🤗 Wanted to share another option for creating stained glass paint( you might know this already of course) I used food colouring with clear glue. This gives a much more transparent look. I prefer this for my stained glass art work as more light gets through and brightens up the room. These days I use store bought glass paint (a brand called Pidilite makes great glass paints) as I found the finishing to be better. The frosted look has its place too of course. Great job 👏🏻

[@simonleaf2765]

Have you tried alcohol inks with clear glue? gives a lovely transparent finish and is more fade resistant than food colouring.

[@davidcook9321]

Looks great, thanks

[@AG-bq7ft]

This was great!!

[@docbrown3139]

Beautiful!

[@kayebishop9419]

l have several can of spray---I need to know can I use any of these for spraying the glass before doing the stained glass-fake? Rust-Oleum 2x Gloss Clear, Krylon Clear Glaze, Mod Podge Clear acrylic (one is Mate and one is clear). Which one can I use??? tk U---- K

[@martinathompson3206]

How much black paint did you add to white glue. 4:08 time in video

[@designsbypamela2831]

What ratio of black paint to glue did you use?

[@vivianeb90]

This is just like window color!

[@user-pk7xo2mq2o]

do you spray over it with the clear glaze when done painting?

[@Cajunkaty]

I thought it turned out very pretty.

[@Runningtorchbearer]

great i watched another doing this and she put the stained glass in a frame. which was also cool

[@thetruthbetold961]

This was soooo inspirational! Can you do a video on stained glass bottles? That's what I'm trying now. Thanks!

[@aliciabell8053]

Can I use Elmer's Washable colored glue in purple to mix with the colors? I could nor find clear? Beautiful work btw!

[@messagefrom8749]

Can you do plexiglass? My son is traveling on a plane and I thought if we make it with plexiglass - less chance it will break.

[@mikesfarmmikesfarm3977]

To mix put a round stick in a dremel. Attach a couple tie wraps and trim them short. Stick in glue bottle turn on slow speed to mix

[@laurellmacisaac7585]

Empty glue into ziplock baggie with paint, mix well, cut corner off bag.. with use as is (like an icing bag) to draw with or squeeze it back into the glue bottle

[@nikkilynnebreder3233]

I’ve seen people use black puffy paint to do the lines too. Have you ever used it? I’m about to do a faux stained glass & I’m gonna try the puffy paint.

[@arjunmuttayam5802]

Beautiful...

[@skullgirltabby]

U CAN ALSO USE BLACK PUFFY PAINT. I USED CLEAR GLUE WITH A TAD OF ACRYLIC PAINT BC IM A PAINTER AND THTS ALL I HAVE.

[@serenaleaghgrace5023]

i love the music who are they, love the leadlight, cheers ess, tailem bend south australia

[@morriganold6750]

If you use food coloring or alcohol ink, you get a more transparent look

[@Kristina-gz2wu]

Is that the Stella Cider? I love it. I wish I could find as many varieties and quality of ciders like I did in Scotland and Ireland.

[@andrearobbins6321]

This is very cool. Does the glue (black outline) stick over time? Was curious if it starts coming loose eventually.

[@maureenbarker8272]

[@wendynewcomb5239]

Wonder if ok on plexiglass

[@katiegrav]

I love it! Can't wait to try.

[@maddiekain7728]

I know this is an older video, but I have a question. Can I substitute mod podge for glue? Children turned all my glue into slime. 😅

[@tammydinatalli1245]

Does the clear coated side face against the paper or does it face up.?

[@craftswithpaige222]

It faces up, it’s the side you paint your colors and lines on. Hope this helps!

[@DrJones-nh4my]

Looks fabulous. I didn’t notice any uhms. Music was a bit loud compared to your voice. I think you’re great 👍🏼

[@audreyhilton4570]

Thank you for this video! I made a few of these for family and friends as christmas gifts! How does the glue hold up in warm weather? I'm worried that it will melt or become sticky again if hung in direct sunlight on a hot day. What can I do to prevent this?

[@craftswithpaige222]

I have had mine hanging in a window since I made it! It has been in direct sunlight and survived two Michigan summers without melting or getting tacky. If anyone has experienced this or has a way to prevent this, I'd love to know!

[@dragonflyer59]

Love it... thank you for the tutorial... when you begin the design do you determine the colors you want to use, or do you play it by sight? also have you ever used inks or dyes? again, thank you... (p.s. I love the music... 😊😅😅😂

[@teenaleer6447]

👍

[@flair4crafts894]

Beautiful. The only problem with using the glue is that after sometime it starts peeling off from the surface. At least that is what happened to me so it was dissapointing, maybe I did no do something right. Any sugestions?

[@cindyleastorch194]

I wondered about peeling...was yours in sunlight? I wonder if it would be ok if hung in the house out of sunlight?

[@judichristopher4604]

4:02 HUM??? Something is wrong with this picture... OOOHHHH the bottle is upside down... So Cute. I love this video. Thank you for sharing this Beautiful video.

[@briansview2886]

I would think it makes more sense to paint your shapes first, THEN do the outline in the dark glue once the colors have dried?

[@chucky6367]

The outline stops the colors from blending with each other, you need to do it first .

[@beacompassion3742]

Get Alien Tape to hang it, and use stamp pad ink instead of acrylic paint. Nice job!

[@melissaperkins3777]

I think it looks great! Can you list the products please and where you can purchase! Thank you for you hints.

[@craftswithpaige222]

Thank you! A rough list of the materials used is in the video description and I believe I bought them all from Walmart. Hope that helps!

[@kylacooney3209]

I know this is an older video know but I'm wondering if this would work directly on a window. Would it hold up to the temperature change outside and could it be removed if needed (since I rent)

[@craftswithpaige222]

Potentially, if you forego the acrylic spray coating at the beginning. I’ve heard the glue/paint mixture doesn’t stay very well without it, but maybe that’s why you’re looking for!

[@jenniferfletcher5425]

You don't add anything to the glue to make it thicker? Just black paint and it will be thick enough? I have to go buy some glue and try it.
