The music is fine. Disregard the haters. I'm not sure why people think their own criticism is their gift to this world. I was taught, "If you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all." I never comment on tons of videos that have taught me a lot however, I'm getting older and I guess I'm getting a little tired of mean people who complain. They should go make their own videos instead of complaining about those who are actually teaching, sharing and giving their time. Your teaching and skills teach me how to do things that I can do IF I only knew how to do it. Now I do know thanks to you taking your own time to teach us. Thanks for your time to do this! I appreciate you! PS, Turn the music up! See, I told you I was old. 🙂

I just bought an large, antique apothecary cabinet that when it was advertised, it had the best 100+ years of patina on it but when I went to go see it, they had painted the cabinet a bright white and sanded the drawers, all that patina GONE. I still bought it tho and was thinking how I was going to make it look like it had a 100 year old finish on it. This will be what I’m going to do with it. I know it’s going to take me a LONG time since it has 18 drawers and it’s a large piece but I think it will be worth it to do this project on a large scale. Thanks for all your painting tutorials.

Love this technique! It's the most authentic, aged paint finish that shows paint layers. It's interesting that you alternate the chalk & salt wash paints. I've used Elmer's Glue (the regular school glue) thinned slightly with water & brushed on prior to the top coat to create authentic cracks - very inexpensive. The top coat also needs to be thinned down & brushed with a loaded brush (brushing back & forth removes crackle). Thank you for sharing your tips!

I bet you’re right! Sea… salt. Sea Spray. The table I have is SUPER old. It is wood but I have no idea what kind. I cleaned it up and it’s one solid piece (on top) I’m thinking it’s going to soak up so much expensive paint. Do you any tricks up your sleeve for putting something on the top first before I use paint? I have stain, would that help?I forgot about this one but I did make your sand & plaster of paris. If ever I want to change it up, I can sand it off, right? I found a table “workbench” that’s going to look super cute using this technique. 💕

Great technique and instructional! We almost expected to hear the sign was flipped for 50,000 USD. :) The chamfering of the corners on new sawn cuts on new stock and on older commercial furniture pieces when repainting is done adds a little insurance that the paint or coating (s) will adhere. We did a similar finish years ago using gesso and polenta and a bunch of hand sanding.. Great job!

WONDERFUL! You are talented as a teacher as well as art. I am wondering if humidity would break down the paint? In humid Florida twice I tried using a salt lamp and there was a pool of water on the table because the salt absorbed moisture from the air. Anyone have experience with this issue? I supposed it could be sealed very well but then sometimes that looks plasticky, at least on chalk paint it does.

Can I use this mixture on my terracotta garden pot with my chalk paint to give it an aged texture and not a flat look? I've seen that Dixie Belle do what they call Seaspray, is this recipe similar? I live in the UK and don't want to pay £15 plus postage for it! Your sign looks fantastic!!

Very interesting technique. Thanks for sharing. I've never seen something like this in real. Should be fun to try out. Is there a way to also have the text looking old and chippy? Did you seal the paint/text?
@OurUpcycledLife
@OurUpcycledLife 3 жыл бұрын
It is such a cool technique! Usually the text peels a bit and looks vintage after I do it and then I seal with a poly acrylic sealer ☀️

That is so so gorgeous 😍. Pickling salt is not easily available and very expensive in my country. Would it be fine if I use sand instead?
@OurUpcycledLife
@OurUpcycledLife Жыл бұрын
Sample not work as well because you can’t use a sander to remove the sand. It will stick in the paint, but you could use any type of salt.

Hi! I’m trying this process on uneven barn boards with slats. It’s quite uneven. How do you lay the graphic after it’s sanded to accommodate for the slight levels? Do you cut the graphic to fit each board?

It’s very difficult to transfer is board is not smooth. Might be tricky for you

Did this a while back, wasn't grainy enough, searched everywhere for something to add to my paint. The answer? Skittles! Covered in paint, you have no idea, plus a variety of sizes, I pulled out the XL ones. And I think I've tried everything in my kitchen, but Skittles are crazy obvious.
