Sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know of a method to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me

[@kylerwalter1308]

@Maximo Quinn Instablaster :)

[@maximoquinn7218]

@Kyler Walter Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@caryulmer7063]

As someone who could never afford a cutter, I really appreciate you showing us how to do this without needing one.

[@ritacaizzi9279]

You got that right. I've learned to do my own freehand lettering.

[@freewaybaby]

Whether you can afford one or not, I tend to want to do so many different things, that I would only make a couple of things with it before I’d be off to the next thing. AND, there that machine would be…just sitting there. I love this video! It will definitely take longer than a cutting machine, but it’s always good to build basic skill sets by “doing it yourself “. 😊

[@tuijawilska9913]

Thank you so much for showing us how to make a sign when you do not have a cutting machine. We rise by lifting others. I love that. I believe you will rise to a million subscribers in no time at all.

[@ElysiaEnglish]

aww thank you!!

[@TIMAFEY2]

Yes, the real and authentic way to make a 'handmade' sign without using those cutting machines.Been doing it for ages.

[@Juju-bm1sh]

“We rise by lifting others” should be one of your signs... I love it. I looked and don’t see the “join” sign but will check again later.

That turned out great. Thanks for the option.

[@alisahausgaard973]

Thank you for sharing a very budget friendly and low tech version for making signs.

[@kristakefer8551]

One of the things that I love about you and your channel is that you give alternative ways to create the SAME THINGS that you do in your shop. Lots of other KZbinrs try this buy end up only giving a VERSION or variation of the product or craft.... thank you 🙏🏻😊 keep up the good work!!! I ALWAYS get excited to see a notification of a new video uploaded by you!!! Also, on a side note... and warning this may be TMI however I struggle with depression and anxiety caused by PTSD. I also just underwent right hip surgery and that just so happens to be my 18th surgery total. I cannot tell you or THANK YOU enough for your videos. They have helped me immensely along with what crafting I’m able to do at the moment!!!! Please keep them coming! 💜

[@charlee1503]

Love your work. Thank you for your videos!!!!!

[@annewade4228]

I discovered your channel yesterday and binge watched. Still have 5 months of videos to watch. Being retired I can’t afford a machine, so hope to win. Thank you for all your wonderful ideas. You live up to your mission statement.

[@mrod6772]

[@jedimom7934]

I am so excited to try this method. Thank you for thinking of us who have no Cricut!

[@ChippyNest]

You truly inspire me! My favorite quote, “To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world!”

[@tieskeellis8531]

What a superb way to start my lazy saturday. First watch your new video and after breakfast do one of your projects from last year that I planned to do today. Enjoy your weekend, all of you crafters!

[@suescott4418]

My sister just gave me some nice paint marks today. I may try it. Great job as usual.Mad skills girl

[@dianastokes740]

Wonderful info for those of us who would like to create a sign, but know we couldn't spend the money just to do a few projects.

[@carlamacedo1503]

I like that method....I did same method decorating wood slice ornaments!!!!

[@normataylor3124]

I enjoy your videos and how u show in detail had w to do a project. Ty for sharing and the givaway

[@valoriegibbons378]

I'm old enough that we used carbon (graphite) paper for many things, including when needing copies of letters or such that you typed. I learned to type on manual typewriters, then electric. My Mom taught us crafts using carbon (graphite) paper. It is great to learn manual skills that you can fall back on if your electric tools and machines are unavailable. I really enjoy your channel

[@nancystricklin8016]

Thanks for showing how to letter a sign without a machine this is so helpful sense I can't afford a machine right now. Keep up the good work

[@theosburns7794]

Loved you showing how to do it made it look so easy Blessings

[@mog-gyveroneill2500]

I used just a black crayon and rubbed it over the back of the printed paper, and did almost the same as you. It didn't come out as crisp as yours, but it was evident enough to draw the words in with chalk pens (it was for signs for my nephew's wedding in a castle), and sealed it with a spray. You look so 'sparkly' these days, so happy and comfortable in front the camera now, but still humble, so cute. I love the interaction between you and Philip, it makes my heart happy! ❤️ Edit: you can get carbon copy paper that shows up when written on, like on receipts, but doesn't come off over everything as easily as the graphite paper.

[@scarlethenderson6510]

Thank you for sharing your talents with all of us ,love your videos

[@ElysiaEnglish]

Thank you Scarlet!

[@lorimayer9928]

thank you! Awesome tips and well communicated instructions. Appreciate it!

[@tanyadavidson4188]

As someone who will probably never be able to afford a cutter. I really appreciate and enjoy your videos.

[@sherrybane343]

I love your channel and enthusiasm

[@SophieT1416]

Great cost saving video. Thanks.

[@janicemantanona9614]

Thank you thank you so much! Cost effective for those of us who can’t afford the cutting machines. Inspires me to start making my own signs for my home! You are the best and I love watching everything that you do!!!

[@anitabruzelius3905]

I do love that you show how to do things in different ways. You are inspiring.

[@cbb_creationsceciliabaca775]

“We rise by lifting other” love it! Thanks for sharing!....I haven’t ever done any signs or stenciled but I have a special needs daughter that wants to try it out she isn’t in school anymore she is with me all day, so I’m trying to teach her how to craft and paint furniture that what I love to do. But anyway I want to Thank you for all of your great ideas!

[@samanthabarris3729]

Cecilia Baca my son, nearly 13, has Down syndrome, and yesterday he said to me "Mom when I'm bigger we must have a workshop and make furniture" 😁 I told him I think that's a wonderful idea! It has always been my dream to make furniture I'm just really nervous to try and other than a drill and a hammer don't have any other tools yet. I think it's time to try, a wood sign seems like a great starting point.

[@cbb_creationsceciliabaca775]

Samantha Barris Yes that is a wonderful Idea!...my daughter has Williams Syndrome! We have to think of something to keep them busy!

[@gregvonhoene2745]

I think a really easy project for your child to make for starters would be blanket ladders. It does not take a lot of tools and they are fun to make. Look for Elysia ' s tutorial video on how to make the blanket ladder. It's great. ☺

[@tinalyle4644]

Thanks for sharing your tips! Love your joy and enthusiasm!

[@clarindaperrin7694]

Thank u for showing us all how to do that. that was awesome. I swear u should have your own little tv show on how to do things the frugal way. I know there's shows on how to do stuff like that but in the end your gonna pay a hundred or two for what your making. So I just want to say thank u for coming to you tube and teaching us all how to do things on a budget I'm so glad I found your channel

[@lauradyer8532]

I total forgot about the graphite paper! Used it to type copies of letters in high school. Lol My mom use to use it on her painted ornaments. You can use a pencil on the back of your print out, though more time consuming. Thank you for the reminder. I have one sign I'm going to redo for our home. We were full timing in the RV but now we have permanent custody of our grand daughter, so bought a home again. Love you😘

[@celesteelijah2515]

Thank you for sharing this video. I have had a project in mind and want to do a stencil...now I don't have to. Please show more and thanks so much...love it!

[@elenapalacios6374]

This project is such a great idea. Special for some of us who don't have the cutter nor the skills to use one like you do. Lol. Awesome sign.

[@Redlvr2000]

Thank You for sharing, glad you found a way that's affordable for us all, going to Michael's today, this project turned out beautiful...Love It!! Very Nice!!🌻🌻🌻

[@margaretbertolo7642]

I love watching your videos, because of you I’m trying to redo a desk, thank you 🙏 for all your help

[@marissavergara768]

Love how crisp this looks for not using a cut machine. Thanks for sharing!

[@samanthabarris3729]

Love it and the words are beautiful too

[@ladybugger5380]

Thank you so much your awesome I just started my sign making business and I bought Michael’s stencils and they were not how I wanted them to look thanks so much for a new computer way

Elysia , such a helpful video ...I teach craft classes for a local hardware store and this is how I teach my ladies how to transfer a design or letters onto wood . We don’t use graphite paper though , we use the old fashioned way of colouring the back of the letters which are printed onto a piece of paper , then turning the paper over and drawing over the letters as you did . Your way is MUCH easier and I will be using this technique from now on . Thank you

[@rubypolichino9580]

I love this. It helps to stay on budget and make it your own.

[@CrazyEmoRanger]

This is an absolute GAME CHANGER for me! I'm brand new to DIY and crafting since recently purchasing a home. I'm clueless and absolutely not artsy. A stick figure is hard for me. So creating a beautiful wood sign without spending a pretty penny was so daunting! I'm SO GLAD I stumbled across this video!!!

[@tinamurphy2231]

Very impressive! Love it!

[@chelseywaldridge2106]

I love that your giving away a machine to others! February is actually my birth month (2-11)! I love your videos and you have helped me so much with my crafting

[@brookep8799]

LOVE LOVE LOVE... I am starting to make signs for my family. and would love to be able to make and sell signs.. i am deff going to be using this technique on my next signs.. and who'd a thunk.... i ordered my graphite paper this week!!!

[@lindasimmons6674]

This was nice of you to do this. Like you said you remember using the graphite paper or we would call it carbon paper when in typing class. I hated it in typing class. LOL Thanks, Elysia.
