Excellent and really enjoyed it, however, you could have done without the bad language. My children repeated every word that you said but I think that you are very talented. Thank you.

[@thediystruggle]

I appreciate that! I've talked about this before in my content. Because, some make comments about the cussing. Most don't care. I think I am just going to post this comment here and address it encase anyone else has something to say about it! I cus for REAL! IF YOU MEET ME in real life, that's what YOU WILL GET! Not someone who watches her mouth and pretends life's fuzzy without the darker moments! I'm not that girl! I am Bubbly and optimistic with realism. THATS what you get! So, I try to be MYSELF in the videos! Me being anything less and dimming myself down to make others more comfortable while i conform to what others feel i should do holds me in a box I dont agree with. I dont judge people or value based on their verbage. This day and age, I believe it's important to be our authentic selves so people don't see a fake version of something. We have so much of that out in the world already. I don't want to contribute to it. Plus, and I say this all the time in the event anyone ever comes across me in the world. They will never be shocked at how I REALLY TALK because what you see is what you get! If I never cuss in my content or speak how you see here putting on a front for the camera. I don't want you walking away from our encounter thinking * WOW, she's nothing like that on camera! * And, to be fair on my about page I let people know my content might not be for everyone! That's OK! I completely understand and respect people's views even if they dont aline with mine! There are a ton of other content creators in this niche to help! I wish everyone the best and appreciate them stopping by! Take care

I was working in my craft room just me and my dog and I said to myself I love this girl she is so funny and talented and best of all I can tell she is a kind and free spirited gal. I cannot agree with you more in your comment about you throwing in a couple self therapy words as I refer to them (😂😂) I call them my frequent flyer words😂 keeping life real is so important to our OWN WELL BEING♥️ I will be watching more of you and I loved your response reply to the self therapy words you were very kind and respectful and honest.

I am so happy to hear that KC, thank you so much for hanging out today!

[@donnabashline4933]

Hi, I've been decoupaging since the 1970s. I began decoupaging on glass about nine years ago. I use paper napkins, and I also use laces and beading and all kinds of things. I'm also an artist so I hand paint a lot of my pieces. Glass is my favorite canvas. One thing I would like to share with you is that if you really want to save time on base coating your glassware instead of using two or three coats of chalk paint and having to sand it, use some Rust-Oleum spray either a matte finish or a primer that's white. I also use Rust-Oleum clear gloss sealer to spray them afterwards when they're all dried and ready to go. Sometimes I will use acrylic paint, but most of the time I use acrylic enamels.When I do base coat with acrylic if I'm going to put another color over it, I will use a sponge to dab the acrylic on with and then I take a very soft, dry makeup brush and slightly go over it and it's as smooth as can be. The rustoleum primer works especially well if you're going to cover the whole thing with a napkin or it works well if you just cover partially with napkins and then do a background color of paint with it. Best of lucj with your how to videos. One day, I will make some videos. 🥰

[@thediystruggle]

Thank you so much for all the wonderful information!! I have used some of these techniques before.. it's so nice to know it works for so many others as well!! Bless you my friend!! Take care!

[@sandieyule1644]

Brandi, you are the best. I love that you tell it the way it is and you answer people's rude comments before they write them. GOOD for you, but I'm sorry you have to deal with rude comments. Love ya girl, you are so talented I really learn a lot from you. SO...thank you!!!

[@thediystruggle]

I appreciate that Sandie! It deff comes with the territory I think of just being in the public eye. Luckily last year I had a short hit over 200k views and almost every comments was rude...lol It did so well because people did not care for it like I did..lol and they had no problem telling me about it! over a 1000 rude comments I grew pretty thick skin after that..lol

[@catherinevergati1284]

Brandi, thank you so much for this video. The reality of the amount of time and patience that goes into each decoupage piece is wonderful to see. I keep thinking there is something wrong with me because everything I create just takes forever. Love your honesty and your humor! Have a voluptuous day!!

[@thediystruggle]

It is important to wait the dry times when your creating pieces. And, for me this is ART! I stress this because it SHOULD take YOU TIME! You should wait the recommended drying because ALL of it is going to make your pieces last a long time and if you have people who purchase from you, YOU WANT to be confident in what you are selling to people. I show stuff fast because I HAVE TOO, now sometimes. especially, when I am doing large pieces or furniture it takes me days and hours returning to pieces. Nothing wrong with you at all!! This is another reason I love doing these tutorials because it allows me to cut through the fancy of watching a quick diy video to show nice new items. and get down to *THIS IS ALL THE BEHIND THE SCENES* While I still keep it very real and informational on fridays it still does not give me the ability to break it down like i care to in each and every video. Unfortunately, youtubes algorithm doesn't seem to push videos like this for me to grow, like they do my friday videos, so when I post a tutorial I only worry about it reaching my subscribers and helping them. I am not sure if that makes sense but I hope so..lol Oh, my I am rambling! You take your time and love every piece!

Brandi, this is by far THE most informative video on painting & decopouging (sp?) glass‼️ Especially the painting glass! Finally, a way to not have streaks. 😊 Well done girl‼️ Both of your pieces turned out stunning 🤩💙🤩 Thank you SO very much for taking the time to teach this❣️ It’s sincerely appreciated❣️😊💜 I’m looking forward to giving it a try. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@thediystruggle]

Aww I appreciate that so much Charmaine!! Thank you!

[@buckiannscreations9089]

TIP:Never cut the napkins unless the sharp edge look is what youre after, by tearing the edge it gives a more natural look,,,You can use a small paint brush with water, trace around the object you want to use, the water allows the paper to tear where you want it to and not rip into the picture

[@thediystruggle]

Yep this is a great point! I talked about this is previous videos and touch on it in my next video!! Thank you so much for the help Buckiann

[@BonnieCrawford-f2h]

I use deco podge before I paint.Especially if I'm using my paint pens on wood,it keeps them from bleeding into the grain.But the sponge effect is absolute,I use it on alot of my projects to keep from having to giving a second coat.

[@BonnieCrawford-f2h]

I love the way you mod podge. I was taught to put the napkin down and apply the decopodge over it and i have alot of wrinkle sometimes that cant be smoothed out so I'm glad I happened upon your app.TY

[@donnas1389]

[@ginnyzellefrow1999]

I really like using Saran Wrap on my decoupage projects. It’s amazing at getting the wrinkles out and doesn’t rip the napkin ❤

[@thediystruggle]

I only experience it ripping if i put to much mod podge in an area. Other than that it works really well!

[@terirachelsims8928]

I happen to prefer the "curvy" vases, maybe because my taste is more traditional. There' a larger curved vase at DT I love (one without a lip at the top). I'm 70 now, and I remember when I was in my teens, decoupage, largely with napkins, was really "in". My mom and I did flower pots with poinsettia designs to go with live plants for holiday gifts. And all kinds of nice wood plaques were in stores for making wall decor.

👍 I totally get you about the final price shock! I have sat in the car looking over the receipt over and over and over until I just accept it! 😢 ????

[@junerobbins6871]

I love your channel. Your projects are awesome and your painting tips are so helpful. I remember my mother Tole painting on glass jars. I don't know what kind of paint she used, but her designs were on there to stay. Maybe it was model car paint. I absolutely love the little bunny. She is so prescious on the glass !!

[@thediystruggle]

Some paint is actually for glass. I have some and as soon as it dries it's unbelievable!! Thanks so much for the information!!!
