[@margaretbucevicius8057]

Absolutely brilliant ❤❤❤ Thank you ❤

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Glad you liked it and got some tips!!

[@helgamertz8450]

Love the toilet paper glue ideas ,thank you ❤️👍

[@QueenBeeCreations]

You are so welcome Helga!

[@lorraineophoff4984]

Very nice! I love the monotone neutrals of your project!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thanks Lorraine! I wanted to do something simple to highlight the texture you can get with this method, which would have been lost with too much colour, but then I loved the result!

[@kathleenmay6711]

Love the tp background!❤️

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Yay! Thank you!

[@deborahbrown555]

Love the tp idea! Project turned out very nice!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thanks so much Deborah, I'm looking forward to trying out more projects with this!

[@bettyannem]

Whenever I am looking for some inspiration I go back and look at your videos and found this one 😊 Guess what I am going try lol

[@QueenBeeCreations]

This was fun and… it works well! I was going to do it at Xmas for a project and ran out of time!

[@dianalynthomas1760]

I really like this. Appreciate your perspective from a shop owner as well, trying to make things budget friendly for people. Great to see.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

I think it’s important to give options… not everyone has access to the same materials or the same discretionary funds! I’d hate for them to not craft for lack of either!

[@dianalynthomas1760]

@QueenBeeCreations I agree completely! Glad to see this. 😊

[@vickiwallace4453]

thank you for showing the budget friendly way! adorable!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

You are so welcome! Always happy to share tips!!!

The toilet paper hack with the moulds is a fabulous idea. Great way to spend an afternoon making up a stash of toilet paper moulds. Thanks for sharing.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

They really are surprisingly durable also... I use a dragonfly mold from toilet paper on my mixed media wall hanging video - along with some of the textured paper - but the dragonfly is just sewn onto the top... hovering in space. It's quite a delicate mold in clay but really quite strong even on its own.

[@blizzgamerchic]

I subscribed the minute you said “I have to be doing some thing, I can’t just be staring at the walls”

[@QueenBeeCreations]

We must be kindred spirits then if that comment resonated with you!

[@michellemull6363]

Oh my gosh! Are you kidding me? Glue and toilet paper turned in to one of the most prettiest DIY‘s I have ever seen. I love you. I love your style. I am so glad that I found your channel tonight. Thank you so much for the inspiration I will enjoy binge watching your other videos and look forward to your new ones God bless.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

It’s such a cool technique isn’t it? Who knew! Welcome to the channel… I hope you find lots of ideas and inspiration here.

[@carriecervantes7928]

Thank you for the education with the TP in the moulds; I love that papery look and cannot wait to try it!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

It's a great little technique, both for making interesting backgrounds (inexpensively!) but also for creating lightweight moulded elements - perfect for card making, scrapbooking, junk journals...

[@LibertyBooksAZ]

Oh my goodness, this video!!! You've jumpstarted my creative energy! I'm sharing ideas with my grandkids when they come visit in my new craft space but need projects that don't use up all the expensive products. So these ideas are PERFECT 🥰

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Yes!!! Definitely perfect with the kids... low cost but really high end finish! (It's nice when you do something they can have fun doing that will give them a result they will be proud of!)

[@debpate9405]

I had to watch it again, If you place the door up an inch or two away from the lowest part of frame and then apply the smaller items at different spots lower it will give a sense of depth. If possible have some layered on top of the door. I'm looking through my printed napkins to find small subjects, (birds, flowers) that could go into the mould first to add color to the scene. I'm going to experiment making dimensional Greeting cards made onto stronger watercolor paper or smaller framed "pictures" with this technique. Thank you! Retired, watercolor painter, keeping busy creating for extra income and fun 😊. Debra L Pate Art

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Debra... those are all awesome tips, thanks for sharing them with everyone!

[@ruthfitzwater-cn3vc]

Debra, your comment about paper napkins made me think the two layers without the printed pattern would be ideal to use in place of the toilet paper. I think they are thin enough. Thanks for sharing your idea.

[@carlaorjohn]

Thank you for the new ideas!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thanks for tuning in... I was surprised with how well the toilet paper did with the moulds, and how well it stood up to the paint and treatments as a backing. I'll be doing more of that!

[@Martbez1]

Great ideas! Thank you, Cindy! That's beautiful!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

You are welcome... the toilet paper in the moulds was a switch up for me but turned out great and I think it's definitely something I will do in future... hmmm... gift tags come to mind!

[@giorgismama8024]

Thanks for these great tips! I, too, love the IOD molds, but can’t afford them all. Your creativity helps us think outside the box. Blessings!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thank you for this! There are always options and alternatives available… I like to show them to you so you can keep on crafting!

[@bettyannem]

That turned out so beautifully Ty for the tips

[@QueenBeeCreations]

You are, as always, welcome!!

[@sandystremming436]

What great cost-saving ideas! Thank you! Loved the video.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

I'm so glad you found it helpful Sandy!

[@judithdenise5983]

You’re so creative, I can’t wait to try some of these ideas out for myself. 😊

[@QueenBeeCreations]

The toilet paper idea is a keeper! I think this is a great way to embellish things like gift tags, cards, journals, when you don't want the extra weight from a clay or resin.

[@lindabartholomew4951]

Wow, great work. As a paper artist, I am going to try my embossing folders. Thanks.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Those should work great Linda!

[@dianetaheri1462]

Hi. You popped up in my recommendations and I saw the new IOD moulds. I just got mine last week and am looking for ideas. So, I started watching. I really like how creative you are and that you are great at teaching the techniques and that you show us the result. So of course, I had to subscribe lol. I am looking forward to more videos from you.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Welcome Diane, glad you found the channel! LOTS of previous videos for you to scroll back through and, of course, two new full videos a week. It's a little bit of everything so hopefully we'll give you new ideas to try or spark new ideas of your own!

[@karenfranceschini8351]

I LOVE THIS! Can't wait to try!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

That makes me happy, enjoy!!

[@valmarshall4849]

Love the toilet paper idea. Could also use the back of napkin pieces if you have left over from decoupage projects. Great project

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Great use for those leftover plys!!!

[@debpate9405]

Great ideas,! I'm going to try using the printed part of the napkin also! On larger moulds the design would be interesting.

[@janebrowning4992]

Wow that's beautiful, got to give it a go. Thank you

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thanks jane... hope you enjoy it!

[@nicolepoirier-wyss8728]

Looks wonderful! Might get some of that dust next time I’m in!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

It gives you the chance to create a softer shaded look than the dark wax.

[@dianebargar7306]

❤❤❤love it, I will watch your tutorials and maybe can do it, love it

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Molding with the toilet paper is really a useful hack... great when you need something to be nice and light... works great for tags and gift cards too1

[@cathymcdonald1285]

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this! Loved all the little techniques you shared! Definitely going tovtry some of these ideas. Thank you! Just subscribed ❤

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Welcome Cathy! I hope you find other little tips along the way!

[@debpate9405]

It would be very helpful if you had a camera over your work surface. Great ideas here, thank you!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Working on it! I think this is the video where people commented on that the most….

[@ruthfitzwater-cn3vc]

What a great teaching video! The toilet paper as a medium was something I was familiar with from selling stamps years ago but you showed me some new ideas and I’m sure exposed many to this method. Thinner tp is usually better (the cheap stuff-lol).

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thank you Ruth and... agreed... Not always the case but... for this... the cheaper, thinner toilet works the abs

[@maryjocunningham5578]

You’re absolutely wonderful! I bought the wrong toilet paper and I was trying to figure out what to do with it! It’s amazing what we buy post pandemic! Anyway, now I know how to use it up, thank you! MaryJo

[@QueenBeeCreations]

LOL!!! Glad I could help, even in unexpected ways! I am definitely going to be using this technique for some Xmas ideas I have...

[@JeannieMitchellMyers]

Great job!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thanks Jeannie!

[@carlamhaight]

I did it! I used the TP texture and it came out great. I wanted to use a texture paste and didn't know what to buy. I was also feeling cheap. TFS

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Awesome!!! So glad it worked for you - and there is nothing wrong with saving some money where you can - or just giving yourself some options!

[@lillye5301]

Wow 💜💜💜

[@QueenBeeCreations]

thanks Lilly!

[@corrine_djm1769]

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Thank you Corrine!

[@patriciakumar115]

Toilet paper and glue! Genius!

[@QueenBeeCreations]

It's definitely a good 'hack' to know... especially when you want a 'light' mold!

[@abuelitap65]

Oh Cindy I Love this project. Very Nicely Done. I like the look with the dust as opposed to the dark wax Would love to see a video with the toilet paper on the stamps. Could you use water colors on the moulds? Any special sealing? TYFS your Incredible talent with us (Pauline S)

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Pauline... I had fun with the toilet paper and definitely have some more ideas so... stay tuned. That said though I think you could definitely add water colours to the moulds. I painted over the dried toilet paper backing and then sealed with wax and it it fine. It definitely dries firm so there would be no issue with sealing with a poly of your choice either. They are a great lightweight choice for projects that wouldn't hold up well to a heavier clay or even resin issue but certainly would wear as well as those options so shouldn't be used for projects that need to withstand use - like on furniture.

[@ttm1428]

You’re adorable❤

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Well that's not feedback I get very often! Thanks, I'll take it!!

[@IAMGONE2DOGS]

If you used a stamp would you still use glue to add to your tp?

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Yes, same process to layer the toilet paper into the stamp… think of it as a shallow mould!

[@glittermama]

I'm very glad I found your channel; I learned some useful things; I've subscribed. Clay is very expensive, I think, and I love the TP hack. I believe your video would have been much more compelling and you would have many more viewers if you filmed overhead so that the entire process could be seen. Tutorial videos are much more immediate and useful that way. Not a criticism; just a wish. You can get a relatively inexpensive tripod and position it next to your work and point it down. Some hold phones also. Best wishes.

[@QueenBeeCreations]

Welcome to the channel and thank you so much for the suggestions, I'll see what I can do. I appreciate the feedback!!
