I love these Mark! Thank you for not only teaching us how to do these but for making us aware that they exist and why. I love that we not only learn a craft from you but we also learn about the history of the craft. And the music you play along with your instructions is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. I haven’t checked to see if you have also listed what the music is from or the artist. That would be an added bonus to the already bonus you have been in all our lives✨💕

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

I'll start doing that again! It's been so busy around here that sometimes I forget! Glad you like the projects and the history. I enjoy researching it, too!

Yeah he's pretty cool eh. 😁

Oh what a great idea. So beautiful. You could go anywhere with this idea. Have a wonderful weekend. As always stay safe and healthy.😘😍😀☺✨

OMGosh, I was just about to trash some cheap metal chargers I bought last year from my fall decor because they had gotten discolored from use. Love this quick and elegant up cycle!

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Noooooo! You need to give them a makeover!

[@bonniemorris1535]

love this project. We use chargers all the time, why have such beauty packed away for only holidays, when everyday is a celebration XOX

I totally agree!

[@bridgethall1065]

Beautiful use of fabric on the charger plates ❤

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Great way to add some texture and color to your table!

[@LauraMe...]

Hi Mark! These fabric chargers are fab-tabulous! I'm waiting for my invite to dinner and get that guest room ready too please. East coast to west coast is a bit of a haul, but you ❤ my dear friend, are so worth it!

That is such a fantastic idea . I will add this to the book of today's. Such a beautiful way to dress up the table .thank you. Love seeing what your up to. Your so creative 😍.

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

I thought my basic silver chargers looked a little chipped and cheap...They needed some love for sure!

[@crimsonfirelily]

I learn some of the coolest information from your channel Mark. Thank you 💜 This is a great upcycling idea! It also adds a pop of color to a drab table. Looks prettier than using placemats all the time also. Thanks for artistic idea! 💜🥰✌

So pretty! I will be altering 6 pairs of kids jeans and turning them into bell bottoms for my granddaughters in Florida. Researching the type of thread I need to use right now.

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

A good cotton thread by gutterman is what I use. Great thread!

[@MichellesCraftsandMore]

@@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark That is what I was thinking and I can get it at Joann. Not sure if I need to back the cotton fabric I will be using (I will have to on the one as it is thin, because I am cheating and using skirts so I can avoid one extra hem!) LOL And still have fabric leftover!

hi Mark! 😊 we MIGHT be doing a "Studio Tour"... where artists open their studios and you can go see their work, chat with them and such...

Beautiful. I never thought of fabric ones. You could make all colours for different occasions. I do however love the wooden carved ones as well. Have you tried making some out of a round piece of wood covered in resin iod molds? I'm dying to try some.

How to clean it? I followed you for a while now I alway LOVE your work. Thank you

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Hi Wei, I put the lacquer over the fabric so that they can be wiped. These are not for food but decorative BUT with the lacquer you can wipe them if they get messy.

[@stellagomez542]

Great idea❤ thanks for sharing. Question for you, can we use the same products but instead of fabric, it will be paper?

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

For paper you could use a regular school glue to get them on the charger and then seal them with a few coats of Minwax so that they're wipeable.

[@stellagomez542]

@@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark thank you! Minwax is for wood stains. Can you send me a picture of the product I should use?

Bonjour mark cette colle est ce juste pour le tissu ou c'est une colle universelle ? Bonne journée🤩👍🏻👍🏻

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

C'est spécialement pour le tissu et ça marche comme un charme. C'est plus solide qu'un point si vous l'utilisez entre 2 tissus !

[@bisiegbeyemi9313]

Will the farifuse affect / leave a stain on the chager plate when i want to remove the fabric?

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

This glue is pretty amazing, not sure if you'll be able to remove the fabric without LOTS of glue residue.

Hey, Mark. Where's my invitation to dinner? 😁 These chargers are beautiful! I'm thinking about making some for Thanksgiving. Will normal cotton fabric work, or do you recommend heavier home decor fabric? Thank you for sharing your wonderful ideas. ♥️♥️♥️
