DIY, clay, paint, and IOD transfer cottage, style, furniture, makeover, 

Hey everyone! In today’s video, I’m taking you along as I explore the magic of DIY clay paint and one-step paint for the very first time! Last year I had the pleasure of meeting Debbie the owner and creator of DIY paint at the Iod flourish convention unfortunately at the time I was too busy to have a play with her paint but now Watch as I transform this piece of furniture with a beautiful cottage-inspired project using IOD transfers. You won’t want to miss how it all comes together!

Excellent job! And thank you for finally using Debi's DIY paint. She promoted you on her member's only video. That's how I found you. So, it's nice that you're promoting her now. THANK YOU!

I believe this might be one of the best applications of an IOD transfer that I have ever seen! Beautiful job! Perfection!

[@juanitavaldez1907]

I usually don't like the transfers, maybe just on the sides of the drawers. But this, I'm in love. This is beautiful. Way out of the ordinary.

You have done a lovely job! I found Debi’s DIY clay paint 5 years ago and it was love at first brush. It is my go-to paint for everything. I am so glad you have had a chance to use it. I just used the same IOD transfer on a small table project I did! The transfers are beautiful. Thank you for your in depth video.

[@Jendarhan64]

Wow, that went from boring to sumptuous! I love the look of those paints, especially the green. There were so many colors that would have coordinated with the base color and the transfers but I think your green was spot on! I bet Debi and the sisters and Jami Ray are very honored! I consider you one of the masters of furniture art and restoration. I think you are an icon in the furniture and creative crafting world. Bravo, love it!

WOW BEAUTIFUL ❤

[@bethbartlett5692]

Yes!!! Really lifts my thoughts and feelings. perfect timing for some Jonathon and Creative! ☀️ I have a Spice Cabinet that is a smaller version of Your cabinet. I keep seeing it as "Red Velvet Cake": exyerior Whipped Cream White and internal Red Red Wine aka Caliente Red (Color of the Year by Benjamin Moire, 2017) 🔹My hold up has been, "Do I want to add some little detail?" 🔹Then my mind goes to: do the interior in Salmon or Coral and do dome Decoupage on the Exterior, giving it some Garden Feel, with flowers in Coral/Salmon, Purples, some Green and Yellow in the garden decor mix. Then it sits, and I remain "undecided" 🔹I use the cabinet to store my Acrylics, and small containers of Chalk Paint, Wood Filler, Spakle, Glue, etc. When I do it, I might sell it. Hugs to you and Mr M!!!
