Hello from across the pond, over the plains, and through a ton of traffic to Southern California! I came across your channel, and when I heard your divine accent, I was hooked! And guess what? I subscribed! Yep! Psst…I can’t wait until my husband and I are able to travel to your neck of the woods. ❤️

[@robinpike6226]

That large vase was absolutely stunning!

[@Kimella777]

You made that so much easier then all the other crafters did👍🏻looks great 😊

[@shirleykathan-sayess5764]

Wow! This is gorgeous. I’ve done marbling techniques, but I am now inspired to upcycle some pots that really need it! ❤️ Shirley

[@miriamm.8313]

Beautiful work, you take away a lot of the intimidation of chalk paint. Please more tutorials 👍🏼

[@JuliaKajtazi]

Miriam M. Thank you and they are on the way!

[@bahnsidhes]

I've been on the diy journey for a couple of years now so I lost a little steam. This has renewed my creative juices. I can't wait to try it out. New subscriber. Thank you!

[@JuliaKajtazi]

I have a solution for all those pink and green porcelain pieces with wonderful shapes. But tho I put them into our community room giveaway Noone would steal them. I only use blue and white so this is perfect. Bring it on,Annie Sloan! My first watch was worth all the time and more. Thank you. Subscribed

Hello Love it's gorgeous i lovit, think I'll givit a go w my old ugly vase 🍀 love ur channel.

[@gaile2241]

That was so easy and looks wonderful.... need to get a vessel to try this

[@lzrd8460]

I just picked up a large plastic pedestal planter thing on the street that I want to do this technique to. But I want to start with a thick joint filler because I want to hide a lot of the detail I don’t like. Then I’ll start painting. I really want the effect of an old Grecian type urn.

[@bayouluxxeevents]

It’s so pretty!!! I pray I can find a similar vessel to transform when I go thrifting🙏🏽

[@JuliaKajtazi]

Tee J. Hi! The look works really well on plastic planters too, if that helps. Julia

[@pamelasheldon1055]
