Mixed Media Altered Tin - jennings644

[@manny4445]

Very pretty, I have an empty Pirouline tin on my desk for my pens and pencils. I have now been inspired to dress it up a bit!!

[@melissamonroe7351]

Absolutely lovely. I adore ur handiwork. I can't afford it but I do enjoy trying 2 create my own using ur tutorials & suggestions, thank u very much! Please keep the tutorials, suggestions & wonderful ideas coming!

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

Of course it got the thumbs down because those who think they know what Mixed Media is, they don't and should go look it up!

[@annalba]

+Jennings644 they don't know what they are talking about. any time you use a different kind of material Paint, Lace, buttons, beads, is MIXED MEDIA.

[@hollowayhandbag]

Mixed media, in visual art, refers to an artwork in the making of which more than one medium has been employed. There is an important distinction between "mixed media" artworks and "multimedia art". "Mixed media" tends to refer to a work of visual art that combines various traditionally distinct visual art media-for example, a work on canvas that combines paint, ink, and collage could properly be called a "mixed media" work, but not a work of "multimedia art." The term "multimedia art" implies a broader scope than "mixed media", combining visual art with non-visual elements (such as recorded sound, for example) or with elements of the other arts (such as literature, drama, dance, motion graphics, music, or interactivity). When creating a painted or photographed work using mixed media it is important to choose the layers carefully and allow enough drying time between the layers to ensure the final work will have structural integrity. If many different media are used it is equally important to choose a sturdy foundation upon which the different layers are imposed. Many effects can be achieved by using mixed media. Found objects can be used in conjunction with traditional artist media to attain a wide range of self-expression. big love marc

Hi there, I just watched this tutorial you posted on altering tin cans. I just love your personality!! The can was so pretty, and perfect for makeup brushes. My cousin and I are preparing to start our crafting tutorials, we are long time scrappers, card makers and crafters. Our name will be Jamma cards and crafts. I look forward to joining you in the KZbin world, you made my night. Take care!!

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

Welcome to the world of KZbin crafting lol. Stay safe and be careful on here, check out folk before you sub to them as we do have some rather dramatic crafters whom are hellbent on...DRAMA! We're not in that category as my channel would rather craft then be in a group or having a go at someone :0). I have a fabulous bunch of crafters that sub to my channel and they are very very good at helping others if needed! So if I don't answer you, someone will but NO advertising please on this channel and you're more than welcome to join my facebook page too :0) xx

[@annalba]

It really is Stunning, Amazing what you can do with tin cans My Spare room has a 100 year old lace bed cover I am slowly dressing the room to co/ordinate , instead of pink going with lavender & purple . with a wee bit of tartan. Thank you for the inspiration to get cracking on this. Ann.

[@grammatoots]

gorgeous, I'm going to make one for my gel pens! then when I'm writing in my journal I will have pretty container with my pen. thank you so much a tutorial

[@Dennissiple]

Fiona, the caveat on the E7000 tube is on everything in CA from petrol pumps to the entry to every apartment building, stating that items used in the construction of, or cleaning items contain such chemicals, even in minuscule amounts. If it's sold in CA it must bear that warning. It's probably the replacement for saying "use with adult supervision" or "use with proper ventilation." The pearl trim buttons made the can "pop". tfs

[@MissTuppy]

Ty for the information about the E6000. Gosh its such a powerful warning. How bizarre but guessing there covering the backs maybe.

[@Dennissiple]

MissTuppy Most people don't even bother with it. I think it's more there for people who are particularly sensitive to certain chemicals, and in compliance with CA state laws - which are very strict on these things - the warning must be printed on packages if they're to be sold in the state. Mind you, it's on a lot of cleaning products as well.

[@carmentyson6941]

I love how you totally transformed this tin can into something very pretty, I really like how the pink inkagold shimmers!

[@wifedec]

I do mixed media all the time, and recycling, so I am so in love with this tin, plus pink is my fav color lol. I think you did a lovely job.

[@twistedimaginings]

Such a pretty project...I've been doing tins for a little while, now. I use coffee mate instead of milk. You'd be surprised at how quickly the empties mount up!! X

[@primrozie]

Very pretty. I like making the altered tins.

[@donnamccain3868]

Thank you for show us that you can change anything into something beautiful!!!

[@karenwoolsey6430]

Is there nothing you can't make look more stunning? LOL Everything you do is just amazing!

[@basmahsarraf62]

karen woolsey I agree with u

[@fred6059]

Thank you! I never thought of tape on a tin! Gorgeous as always!

[@tneverrest]

Very pretty and I like all the bells and whistles to! LOL Thank you for your share .

[@craftyblackbird4368]

love it fi those people who give this the thumbs down are jealous of your talent xx

[@VCcoffee68]

I reuse many things but don't think to pretty them up. Love the tin, and love how the whistle got the beads even 😉 lol- Kris

[@vale110101]

Watched videos and tutorials from this dear lady. Jennings644. She oftens has a friendly visit from a close friend. I love these videos. Lol. She is a master at making ribbion flowers. A handcrafted gift any scrapper would love.

[@monawall5747]

who ever is giving you the thumbs down must not be very smart, don't know how you can stand it, I love this, and yes it is mixed media, and I am in love with all the pink, I am so going to go look for the inka gold in that color, just beautiful, will stop throwing away my cans and put them to good use

[@joannestupak4749]

I loved this project. You make me want to empty all my canned items and go at it. Thanks , I look forward to your next video. Hope those grand kids are all well. Take care🐱

[@sherryvaughn189]

I found that if you let the glue set for a minute and than attach what you are working with, it does so much better.

[@beverlyash6871]

I just love it. Your so creative 😊👏👏

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

Thank you! 😊 xx

[@wendykidd]

So pretty! Just wanted to let you know that you can use E6000 and also use a dab of hot glue to hold things down while the E600 dries.

[@Cher6457]

you are so amazing fiona I have watched loads of videos of your work and you always make things look so easy you inspire me every single time I look outside the box now like you said and come up with so many different ideas thankyou so very much xxxx

[@jacquelineriley-gorman4647]

I had a laugh when you mentioned about everything NOT being garbage.....during the summer I walked by a sign shop where Ilive and they had thick tubes that looked like they had held vinyl for ..making signs...there were 6 tubes there and by the time I left 5 of the tubes were gone....the tubes are just about 5 feet long and were really hard to carry home but will look great as snowmen or something else.....I haven't figured out what the something else is yet....hugs

[@lollydollycrafts]

Love this project very pretty xx

[@reaganmiller453]

Beautiful! I have some cans saved up but didn't have any ideas until now. I think I'll make them for my paint brushes since I have large, medium and small cans. My style won't be shabby chic for these though. I'm thinking vintage or steampunk... hmm. have to give it some thought or just do it, as they say. Thanks Fi xxoo

[@SandraOranje]

Love it! It's gorgeous! You give me great ideas for my bedroom and vanity ( that I'm still looking for) but what are those pictures called you used to make that lace flower? I saw you use a punch and it sounded like cartboard when you clipped it. If you can give me the english name of those I can translate it and start my search for something like that here in the Netherlands. 😊😊

[@craftcornerwithestherc2506]

This is so pretty. I love mixed media. It is whatever you want it to be :)

[@WendyT1HappyCrafter]

Oh yes it is so pretty, i think i might need to alter a couple of things on my dressing table now lol xx Wendy

[@barbjephson]

Have been reading in the recent newspaper edition all about hoarders....they collect things too and Wellington has a problem...maybe NZ has a problem...they even collect old cars and number 8 wire....?????

[@barbjephson]

This migration thing is going too far I reckon...

[@karensanfilippo7970]

This is great, very cute. Been saving all kinds of item to up cycle.

[@hapijaq]

I love that your spirits are so much higher than in the recent past so glad you have got over your hump and seeing the world for what is is and not letting naysayers rule it love your work and TFS regards Jaq

[@MissTuppy]

Fi.....Pink Inka Gold Oh my giddy aunt I need some of that now. That's lush. I have copper and silver which I love. Arghhhh I need some now lol x👍

[@marneemiller1410]

Thanks for doing the video, I luv the tin. The flower is so cute! I've been meaning to ask u a question. When I purchased all those new laces I love them but I have no clue what to do with them. I was wondering how u cut up the laces bc there is so much to them. If u maybe could do a video on how to cut up laces. Thanks Hugs marnee lyn

[@strandnixe1]

Love this project Fiona. It's very beautiful. TFS HUgs Beate

[@lyndabuchanan3708]

I really love your Territorials , I. Missed the beginning and did not see what you used to color the can ? Could you please comment ? Thank you !!

[@jnetbeams]

I made one based on your tutorial. I love it!

[@lynnbrassington]

fi i love your personality you make me laugh at some of the sayings you have, i am from Manchester so i think its great you are down to earth person, a little bit of posh accent comes out sometimes i have a little giggle sorry i cant help it, i have been watching your videos all day from 9 30 this morning and it is now 9 40 in the evening, a little break to do meals for the family with a tut, i will continue to watch you xxx

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

I think the posh side comes out sometimes because of where I come from. I was born in Peterborough, Cambs and of course they all talk like that down there lol. When we first moved to Leeds, we were picked on for talking like it lol. Think I've picked up the slang by now ha ha ha xx

[@lynnbrassington]

well i love it xx its still makes me giggle, and i am still watching your videos i am still watching. your stuff is beautiful you've taught me a lot and i cant thank you enough, your lovely personality makes me at ease, love listening to you, xxx

[@annsmyth3840]

love it were did you get the paint from ? love the pearl look fantastic

[@47bettie]

Very pretty Fiona great idea and easy thank you for sharing!!!! God Bless Hugs Liz x

[@patnapper6178]

Jennings644, you will find that warning on many products but we don't eat this stuff. I even got some brushes that had this warning and did some research that eased my mind.

[@christinefox1666]

can I have details of where your shop is please. I am enjoying watching your tutorials.thank you x

[@vickiemurray388]

Love how you took a simple can and turn it in to a beautiful item.That you can use instead throwing it away. I do lot with cans.If I could ask you a question about the paint you use.It look like it had a rough text to it.I love the color.And where would I be able get the pictures that you use in your flower.Tfs. Hugs,Vicki😊

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

The paint had a texture to it but by stippling it, it made the texture more visible. You can buy the pictures of PION papers! :) xx

[@vickiemurray388]

Thank you!

[@MRVICTORCRAFTER]

WONDERFUL !!!

[@debmorris9648]

[@BambiOlsonLexi]

Hi, Love your creativity. What kind of glue gun do you use it looks so precise?

[@tresohmeef5884]

Regarding the warning on the E6000, I have no idea if it is true or not but I learned recently that many of the studies having been done in California are under review because of old methods of testing being used. In other words, they are still using the feed a rat the equivalent of 50 pounds of some product or another every day for a month and see if the rat gets cancer. These methods are no longer used because they are inaccurate. So I am now looking again at any warnings that came from studies done in California. Not telling anyone not to be careful or not to heed warnings but just simply saying do your research!

[@largane21]

C'est très joli !

[@barbjephson]

Think they call it recycling! In NZ...we have problems with the rubbish collection and the site location with the local rubbish tip....maybe this is the cause....and the tip fees are too expensive...this user pays ideas is not cutting it! Now we have 'Pop up Shops' too....

[@dragonflyer59]

I have some odd shaped tin cans, one is a shortbread cookie tin shaped like a snowman...any ideas or suggestions for that?

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

These are fabulous for altering into miniature shelving units. Mod Podge fancy tissue all over inside and out. Add 2mm chipboard shelving and paint that or mod podge same tissue. Add miniatures etc. Great way of using up odds and ends. I once made a bathroom shelving, making little towels, bars of soap from white rubbers, added prfume battles made from beads etc. Great fun and look fab :) xx

[@MegaChrissie61]

Love , love love this one .xx

[@dragonflyer59]

can the pearly bits be bought from your store?

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

Yes, we sell lots of acrylic pearls and pearl beads etc :) xx

[@jenethamilton226]

How pretty. I do try to reuse everything. I love to fancy up tin cans. Any ideas o small cans, I have three cats so I have many cat food cans and I would like to use them for something.

[@JenningsCraftsBoutique]

One of the things I've wanted to do for years is to use lots of cans on a wall as a pencil pot laid down, here's a link uk.pinterest.com/pin/504121752011381834/ Hope this helps :0) xx
