I know this is kind of a new thing people are doing with baking soda but you can do the same thing with spackle and it takes paint quite well

[@treeseneese8655]

Baking soda is probably cheaper.

[@erikseanwolff5341]

@@treeseneese8655 I did not think about that if you are doing a big project like the beautiful picture that you did you're probably correct

[@treeseneese8655]

@@erikseanwolff5341 But good suggestion on the spackle, that would definitely hold up longer I would assume.

[@lesliebean4594]

Spackle does work great. Corn starch, or flour might be a comparable substitute as well.

[@shariontipler5542]

Good tip👍🏾😊

[@sharonelaine5419]

I love this. I would use a piping bag for the center and pipe little drops

[@lalareeves1941]

That's a good idea!

[@WJW1024]

That would be a great idea! If you don't have a Piping Bag, you could substitute a Zip Lock Bag!

Good idea!!!!!

Very cool! Yes I use spackle, putty, even grout on glass vases to give texture...it works great! Thank you for this video!

[@rachelk3054]

I’ve thought about grout but wasn’t sure if it needed to be the kind that was not sanded.

[@rhonnachurch6929]

I mix all of those same items with paper machet

[@arashy]

I’m not an artsy person. Had you shown the finished product, I wouldn’t have watched. If I were an artsy person, I’d have thought this very cool, especially since you can choose the colors.

This mixture is FANTASTIC for beach scenes. You can really get the water and breakers on the sand to look awesome. Thanks for sharing the video!

Will this glue and baking soda attract bugs

Put my cake decorating skills to use and put that in a pastry bag….. I could do….. so many things🤫🤭🥰

I paint boxes and bags to put out Christmas gifts in for family. I'm going to try it with a snowman and a tree scene. If it don't work out and can scratch it off. If it does work out I will have a cool extra gift on the boxes.

Love this interesting technique. All white would hv been pretty as the shadows would give a grayscale feel. It would be a bas relief style as old school European artist used plaster.

[@joterwilliger3756]

Very clever, have not seen anyone using baking soda/glue, and only small amount of paint does the trick! What a savings on paint a d love the chunkyness! Nice job....

Super cute! 💖Love the fact you were able to recycle an old canvas

[@pamwaldron2566]

Just remember that too much filler(baking soda, cornstarch, etc) w8ll cause the paint to flake off later. Glue might delay it for a while, but don't be surprised when the paint flakes off. Just redo your project.

Getting used canvases at the thrift store are so much cheaper too.

[@burghbrat3319]

This is an easy and inexpensive alternative to pricey texture media sold in stores. I'd use this for craft projects but not for art. I'd also seal it after drying or, alternatively, use a bit more glue in the mix to keep the baking soda from crumbling in the future.

[@Kayenne54]

Would spray varnish (clear) work okay? To seal off the surfaces...

[@Jillian1stJohn3-9-10]

I want to make a design on a giant wall with broken mirror and glass. So would this mixture work as a replacement for grout?

This doesn’t work with every glue. Test it first. The sodium can do something weird to some glues.
