MOD PODGE SWIRL TECHNIQUE | Fake Stain Glass DIY | Mod Podge Hack

[@kaitlyn888]

I just want to say thank you your tutorials are very real real life real way the whole way through. You can show the ups and downs of the DIY struggle, so that when we approach a problem when we do our projects, we know how to fix them and know that we’re not alone with the struggle number two I love watching her tutorials for the main reason of the humour you mix humour with real life struggle, well giving great information and not only how to save money and still make our homes look beautiful but to enjoy life for what it is cape struggling my friend thank you again

[@terirachelsims8928]

I haven' t tried it, but I think I'd like to use 4 smaller frames to make a lantern for an LED candle, or maybe something using a push light. I really like your results!

[@thediystruggle]

Teri!! That sounds stunning!!

[@pamelataylor3537]

It's it ok for me to say, I enjoy your silliness because when I'm crafting, I am silly too. The only thing is I don't have anyone to laugh with me. Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 😹

[@cpage2323]

i really appreciate your personality coming through in your tutorials. i find a lot of folks annoying to watch and as if i wouldl never want to hang out with them in real life. thanks for being interesting, informative and quirky! :)

[@thediystruggle]

Its taken me a long time to get comfortable like this. If you want a good laugh go back to a few of my original videos... I'm way more reserved and monotone..lol I appreciate your kindness Cpage!

[@Jojo-gh6fq]

Wow that is beautiful. I’m going to try that one. Thank you for sharing this.

[@lindawhitehouse8519]

It really turned out beautiful! You are such a joy to watch! I always laugh. I can relate I am on the struggle bus everyday with something! Lol thank you for sharing your ideas and talent with us!❤️

[@cherylmclaugh]

this was the first video of yours that I've watched and I want to tell you that I really like your method and your delivery. Your step by step delivery makes things easy. I like your little pop up thingies that tell us how you are feeling - and your casual style - your teaching style fits my particular learning style perfectly. I subscribed.

[@thediystruggle]

I appreciate that Cheryl!! Thank you very much!! It is nice to meet you! I hope you have a great weekend

[@lindaelmore1223]

Step by step is my best way to learn. Some videos are so fast I can’t keep up so end up scrolling back a dozen times and that drives me mad. Thanks for a video every learner can follow.

[@thediystruggle]

I never expected this series to do so well Linda, I cant lie. I do still have DIY fridays with more fast pasted videos

[@sandieyule1644]

Brandi, I was having trouble trying to understand what it was supposed to look like.. Well I loved your outcome! You know your Mom was picking at you b/c you gave her a hard time about not watching your hack video!! LOL I would love to see more ideas with this application! Thanks for all you do FOR US!

[@thediystruggle]

Sandie... lol omg this made me laugh. If you can read the live chat, Kathy was like.. whats the point of this... lol and as I am explaining it then it showed the result, she was like NEVER MIND I SEE IT... i love it.. or however she said it.. I was laughing so hard, Because thats how i felt the first time I seen it. someone was showing step by step pictures. I was like ok.... and... then i seen the last one and was LIKE OHHHH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS...lol

[@sandieyule1644]

I had this sweet neighbor friend in her 90's and she used to say " wait for the barn to fall then I will understand." That is how I felt too!

[@Deb195100]

It’s beautiful. Thank you for all your hard work and time. 😊

[@MAGAcatmom]

Hi Brandi, I have made stained glass-look pictures by painting the face of the picture with Modpodge, letting it dry completely then soaking it in water and rubbing off the back until the image is transparent then using Modpodge to adhere it to the glass. You can make some really pretty suncatchers that way or you can add it to the glass of a lantern for a really pretty glow. Painting on 3 or more layers of Modpodge on the image then soaking it in water has worked the best for me. I hope this gives you some ideas.

[@raewest7843]

@ninapatterson thank you so much for sharing your idea, that sounds amazing! I'm going to try your method out right now ❤

[@paulthomasshepherd5156]

Thank you. As for me I liked it better with just the rose alone and the one butterfly on the top left. Reason is less cluttered looking and more focus on the main object. Plus a pleasing simpleness.

[@munanana9824]

This is gorgeous. I Love your slow videos, in this day of speeded up videos, which leaves me a bit at sea..... I would love to see a double sided glass one done by you.

I have painted pet portraits on glass using a floating frame. And the under piece of glass, after painting the portrait, I spray painted the back of the glass it’s a colored sea glass/ frosted spray paint for a background.

That sounds amazing!

[@marychampion8716]

I wish I could give u pointers, but I’m learning from you! Question: I noticed that all KZbin creators mention, like all the time, “do what u like”. Is that to prevent liabilities? Btw, the ‘frosted’ glass demo turned out beautifully! Ur so fun to watch. Byeee

[@thediystruggle]

No. Because, in reality it's a persons choice to do whatever. I also have a disclaimer in every description box for my self. But, I say do what you like because I've gotten so much negative comments on peoples criticism of colors, crafts, just all the things. So, I like to say get inspired from what I show you and then remix it into your own version. I hope that helps.

[@maryann4721]

A simple project that creates a beautiful finished piece! The flowers you used are beautiful. If you did this to create a suncatcher, hanging in a window from a chain and suction cup, do you know if the sun would soften or distort the Mod Podge? Thanks

[@thediystruggle]

I had this in the window for about a week. It didn't seem!

[@maryann4721]

@@thediystruggle Thanks - I'm looking forward to making some!

[@melllat]

Yes with the two glass

[@snookyrichards9519]

For years I was an activity director at a nursing home. My residents loved doing stained glass projects. Dollar store frame with only one pane of glass. The residents would choose their project, birds, flowers, animals. Would trace on the back side in black, thick, stain glass around the picture they chose. Blacking the pertinent lines so they could see the picture themselves. (Simple ones) And also draw for them the lines to join the picture to the frame. After dry they used stain glass paint to color as they wanted. Beautiful. Would put frame on and a hanger so they could be hung in the window. They loved them and their families had a keepsake they could cherish.

[@jodiwaggoner9401]

Thank you for the information. Question, do you think it would be possible and what would be the affect of adding paint to the Mod Podge?

[@thediystruggle]

Hey Jodi! I have another video called 5 ways to swirl!! I show a bunch of different results with this method!!

[@thediystruggle]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/anbPiqSIp7-da7c

[@sheryltucker9048]

Oh my goodness, I absolutely love it!! Gonna have to try!! Do you think you could use like 2 pieces of glass that came out of regular frames? I have some that I took out for certain crafts and didn’t need the glass. I save everything. Then you could make a frame to go around them. Just wondering if you thought that would work. Thanks for sharing!! Love your videos!! God bless!! ❤️❤️🙏🙏

[@thediystruggle]

Girl believe me when I tell you thats what I am going to do if I can not find the frames. with 2 pieces. I have a bunch of people offering to send me some but i dont want them to break in shipping so I hopefully can find more and we will do a big tutorial trying several different ways. I also need to find a better lighting or spot to get a good picture The video and picture does the piece no justice. I love this so much!

[@lyndarandall211]

Thank you. I have seen this done with fake flowers. I think I would like to try the swirling concept on the back like you did and use the gallery glass paint on the front to get a texture look. I would like to see if you do more of this too. Thank you again. Blessings 🤗🌷
