    This is the most stressful part of using vinyl. I have ruined so many pieces when I first started. This would have been so helpful when I first started. It seems simple and like I should have known it but newbies will be so happy to know this. Braying is something that I never knew to do. It just goes to show that we all can learn something new.

    Thank you, your tutorials seem very thorough. I will have find some of the StarCraft vinyl and try it. I have very little time to learn and play and it's so discouraging. Told my husband I'm close to selling it😢 . I'll try a little longer. Also, any tips on taping of wine glasses for glitter and different colors? TIA

    Aloha from Hawaii🌺🏝 Thank you for sharing your weeding technique. I had the hardest time weeding my vinyl as i kept lifting my letters up which led to messing up where it originally belonged. It took me awhile as i had 6 lines that i made to put on my late brothers urn. (ie: His name, sunrise date, sunset date, and a few words that followed) 1. I didnt cut the excess vinyl off, 2. My excess vinyl got crinkled up, hence losing the dot on the i's and apostrophe's on the s. Had i seen your amazing video prior, i probably woulnt have had those issues and i thank you very much for your well-explained tutorial. Lastly, one question: My vinyl backing sheet is shiny/slippery in the sense that my letters kept moving and sliding, is that normal?

    Does StarCraft fall under another name by chance? I can see it through 143viny, but cannot find it through Amazon? Thanks in advance 😊
