Kari, you make this project so easy. I’ve been thinking of foiling, but looks so intimidating. 😅I will be watching this again & again.

You can do it!! 👏🏼 I’ve foiled several times and this is the happiest I’ve been with the result.

Hmm, I have never ever used foil before. Your project is so pretty. You have sparked an interest in trying it. 😊

This will definitely be a useful video for me. I tried foiling a while ago and was not happy with the result.

I’ve been there! And I learn every time I do it. Two layers of fouling glue definitely made a difference.

Love it Kari ☺. If I want to use this foil method on a tray would I seal it as I would any other surface and could I use wax?

Thank you!! If you use a matte varnish over the foil, it will dull the foil. We have not tried waxing over it to see what that does to the foil. If you try it, let us know!

Is there a sealer that would not dull the foil or do you not seal when you foil?@@StudioR12Stencils

@@trohlfs01 We generally use the DecoArt Matte Varnish. Matte to avoid glare and shine from lighting. This link (below) will take you to a great tutorial that Patty made for varnishing gold foil specifically. The 17:28 minute/second mark is when the varnishing starts. 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3vQnKmmqNlpnpo

A question though, are dark based coats better than light? Or personal preference?
@StudioR12Stencils7 ай бұрын
That is personal preference. We foiled on a cream background with a rose gold foil on this project: Paint a Fall Door Hanger with Stencils| Buffalo Plaid Pumpkin | Rose Gold Foil kzbin.info/www/bejne/inm1fIKvnNKjqa8

Did you varnish before applying the glue can you varnish after foling
@StudioR12Stencils7 ай бұрын
We did not varnish this project. Your decision to varnish would depend on how you want your project to look. You can use a spray or paint on varnish. If you use a matte varnish when you are finished, it will dull the foil. We have not tried varnishing the background then foiling over, but Patty says that could be an option to keep the foil vibrant.
