Psychedelic! You're making me quite nostalgic for the 60s :) What a restful process it must be to take a break from constructing grids by using the stencilled segments as guides. Gorgeous piece, thank you!

[@elizabethwebb5242]

These colours are just gorgeous Maria. Totally love this project, thank you! Can I ask can you use rubbing alcohol to clean the stencil or would that damage it?Thanks 😀xx

[@SweetWillowDsgn]

Hi Liz. Alcohol won't damage the stencil but I would not let it soak. Check out my video on using the Awesome! cleaner from the Dollar Tree. It was wonderful!

[@shrutimisrasharma6663]

Loved the art! Just had a question: how do you clean the stencil and the dot pens used while working?

[@SweetWillowDsgn]

Thank you Shruti. To clean the stencil I have a pan of water with some dish detergent that I put the stencil in and let it soak. To clean the tools while I work I have a paper towel that I wipe them with and then when the paint builds up between painting, I let them soak in water and dish detergent, lightly scrub them if I need to get stubborn paint off. Thanks for watching.

[@shrutimisrasharma6663]

@@SweetWillowDsgn thank you very much for replying! Much appreciated. Your tips are very insightful.

[@rhodandreipenas5141]

Excuse me I'll give this for you 👑

[@migdaliaisidron3943]

I am a new subscript.I love what you do. Where I can buy the tools?

[@SweetWillowDsgn]

Hi. I have links to the tools in the description. Click on the show more or drop down for the description. Thanks so much for watching.

[@marciamorrow7149]

Do you have a list of colors used because I just bought the large stencil?

[@SweetWillowDsgn]

Hi Marcia. Thanks for purchasing the stencil. The list of colors is in the video description.

[@tonyah4453]

Hello, I’m new to dotting and I was wondering if you could help me. Is it ok to use satin and matte colors together on a project? Not mixed together but like a one dot matte and other ones satin. What about different brands of paint?

[@timone50]

Could you please tell me if the Multi-Surface Metallic Green was just green? All they had was festive green and crystal green. Than you.

[@elainefanara5631]

I would love this stencil but it says it’s not available.

[@larrynowell1733]

How do I find you stencil??? Your link does not work. Love your work

[@jennyanderson683]

I am wondering myself. It isn’t in your Etsy shop. It is a magnificent stencil. Please let us know.

[@patkline6147]

13:50 how can I get a copy of the butterfly design. Stencil since it is sold out. Pat

[@MichelleJ1822]

I looked and didn’t find this stencil. No longer making them??? 😢

[@moniqueracine1647]

I don’t see the list of items needed. I am new to KZbin, where would I find them.

[@bexlaviolette]

Just hit the SHOW MORE under the description and the list is towards the middle.

Thanks for helping. 💚
