After searching soooo many videos on how to create these gorgeous bells and your's is absolutely the best and completely high-end looking! New subscriber 🥰

[@ecbrent2]

I did the same thing and I totally agree with you.

[@dazeyknows6736]

I disagree I found the tin can and paper cups were way easier and cost nothing

[@michelehayes9509]

I was going to say the same thing! Best results I’ve seen yet!

[@sabriciastrandhagen7099]

Your Bell's turned out beautiful! They look so realistic! 😮

[@robinhaury9295]

Hi, I'm new here and have subscribed to your channel today. Omgosh wow wow wow wow wow you did a fantastic job on your cow bells! I thought they were real bells at the start!!

Amazing Love the bells Great job 😊

[@margaretjordan5381]

you did a great job with the cups. Very inventive and the rope looks great.

[@dandmpug]

Well, I have to admit I was a tad skeptical at first, but wow, they turned out absolutely beautiful, so much nicer than just giving them a coat of gold and calling it good. Can't wait to try this!

[@linsuemayland6719]

Absolutely the best faux bells ever! They look so real👍

[@kristythomas2919]

These look so real! Great job! ❤❤❤

Even though I’m not going to make any Christmas Bells this year, I’ve learned a lot of tips with you, that I can use on other projects. Thank you. 😊 👍

[@erniedollar4863]

OMG GIRL ,we are running out ways to say how creative you are ,the bells look soooo real ,beautiful

[@artsymaddieDIY]

Thank you so much, both of you 🥰❤️❤️ I appreciate your encouragement SO very much ❤️❤️

[@kellysnyder7224]

totally best vintage bell tutorial on you tube. you nailed it. Thank you so much.

[@Deneie1]

These are gorgeous and so authentic!!!! Thank you for sharing.

[@anndouglas3137]

I must say your bell is the real deal 💯💯

[@cassandracleveland]

So beautiful! The best tutorial I’ve watched for these this far. ❤

[@carollen5601]

I like this idea for my front door instead of a wreath. Thinking of wrapping the cans with a textured clay... I will use my homemade clay of cooked glue and cornstarch, sort of a polymer clay, much cheaper for larger art projects. The bells would also look great painted with copper or bronze acrylic paint, and a faux vert-de-gris. Happy holidays everyone, take care. 🎄 🎄

[@josimpson7999]

These easily look like the real thing - which can be very pricey. You’ve saved yourself a fortune and they look loverly. Well done 👏🏻🇬🇧

[@kathyhelmold7358]

WOW!!These are so real looking. Great job!!

[@lianeabeyta4515]

This is incredible. The vision you had is amazing. Does look like alot of work... but so well worth it . I specially love the gold/brass version. The layering of the paints and corrosion were spot on.

[@karenallen3486]

Maddie you are such a awesome crafter! Those bells are gorgeous! I could never do that. You are truly blessed. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@chrishubbard5073]

I appreciate that you didn’t skimp on steps such as sanding and layering the paint.

[@janinekuklinski7690]

Tried making these bells and they turned out beautiful , thank you !

[@beckylynn209]

Absolutely beautiful!! The thing is, I don't have any paint so I think by the time I buy all those paints n thing's, I could probably go out n buy the bells from the store.. Thank you.. 🤗

[@lzrd8460]

Store bells are super expensive so I doubt you will be paying more for the paints.
