Cat litter works too!! 🙂 Great channel!

[@charlotted6247]

Very interesting. I have the Crystal litter that hurts my feet to step on. I bet it would be great. Best litter I've ever used.

[@Mollydogdesigns]

I’m guessing the kitty litter should be unused,right? LOL 😳🤔😂😂

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Oh!! never tried that!! Gonna do it and Ill let ya know how it goes!

[@wesfoleyArt]

Best chippy technique ever

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes, it works fantastic thanks for watching

[@lydialangfordjoiner765]

Happy Weekend! I hope it is warm there.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

We are actually in a heat wave!! Has been 30 C for 4 days now which is very hot for this time of year!!

[@KarenMafiaMomma]

I like the first one the best. It's a mire subtle look. Wonder if you can just use a layer of chalk instead of the spray paint?

[@doggiemama7192]

Every one a winner! Can't wait to try the first one...couldn't get any easier than this. I think you're the queen of chippy finishes!

Reference to the site sponsoring the video…I had to chuckle, I mean, it is a great site to learn from. But I learned macrame as a kid, in Girl Scouts in early 70’s. My mother had to be the best Girl Scout leader anywhere. She was so active and made sure we all experienced a wide range of activities. Macrame, fire log making using newspapers, making and decorating Barby Doll cakes with fancy ball gowns. Camping, hiking. Seeing you doing these crafts is a walk down memory lane. Perhaps sharing your knowledge with the younger kids (boys & girls) is a way to expand their horizons. I know it did mine. Thank you

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Love to macrame but def needed some refresher classes to remember all the knots! Thanks for watching Susan

I love your videos. And I’m fairly new to your channel. Is there a place you post the DIY salt paint recipe?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

So glad you found me! Love new crafting friends. Hope you find lots of great content Cathy. Here is the link to my salt wash recipe: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXzZpHeLobOKosU

[@jenniferkopenga4383]

That yellow and torquiest board was 🔥 omg I’m OBSESSED all of them were magnificent! I’ve actually tried this method but with kosher salt and idk what or where something went wrong but it seemed like the white wouldn’t go away like the white cast of the salt if that makes sense?? Great work 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Thanks for watching ! Glad you enjoyed Jennifer. Probably just needed to keep sanding! It takes quite a bit

[@jenniferkopenga4383]

@@OurUpcycledLife yes ok that’s what I noticed about yours so I’m LEGIT trying that again but I will buy the pickling salt though lol ty for responding I greatly appreciate it!!

[@monikamerritt1674]

Hi, I tried the second method and it didn’t work for me ☹️ How long did you let your paint dry? I tried it once with epson salt and then sea salt. I don’t know what went wrong. Any advice - thank you

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Don’t mix salt in too much if you do too many strokes it won’t work

[@Robert-ce5wp]

This is a good method using salt but beware the salt can leach out overtime and produce white salt dust on your project.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

There shouldn’t be any left on your project if you have sanded all off

[@dianadiehl]

That sounds so dangerous in uneducated hands. People may not clean their skin properly and introduce things that don't belong under the stratum corneum. Yikes.
