Why Buy Expensive Textures? Just Make Your Own!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hi and Welcome back to The Stained Canvas! In todays video I show you how to save money and make your own textured rollers for making collage papers and mixed media painting. All it takes is a few supplies from the dollar store and you've saved yourself loads of money. I hope this helps you to keep creating regardless of how expensive everything is getting!

If you cut a toilet roll across its width, then you can lie it flat & use that as the perfect sized & easy template to save some wrangling 😊
Put duct tape on the first edge to hold down the piece on the roller so it’s easier to glue and join the edges. Once it’s trimmed and lined up put elastics around the roll to hold the material in place until it’s dry.

Love the leaf pattern!
Wow. Amazing results from a simple tool.
That’s so cool! Agreed….anywhere you can find ways to make crafting and art a little more easy on the wallet…go for it! Thanks for the creative idea!

@@TheStainedCanvasArt. If you go to your local wallpaper supplier they often have books of sample patterns which end of range are given away, so any embossed wallpaper could get used therefore saving you money. Thanks for this video 👍 I want to subscribe please.

PVC pipe sections would work too and they are washable.
Maybe if you lined up the join at the edge of the paper it wouldn’t show in the middle of the design.
That was very interesting to watch , very good idea 😊
Among the things my mom left behind when she passed away was a big bag of hair curlers. I still remember her putting my hair up in those things. It occurs to me that those little guys would make great texture rollers, as some are spongy and some are spiky.

My condolences to you and your family on your mom's passing. 😔 I think her hair curlers might work great! Let me know how it turns out.
This is a fabulous idea 🎉❤🎉 thank you!!! 🤗
This is GREAT. I am doing a journal exchange with 2 partners and I am always looking for new stuff to do. Thank You ... Annie Lou

This is so fun I can't wait to try different textures and look for different things to use!
It’s the first time I’m here because of the KZread suggestion and I submitted to your channel just immediately before even the video was finished! And since I don’t subscribe to a channel before I can watch some videos on it that I can see if it’s my cup of tea or not, I have to say that it wasn’t really my way. You know it’s not just about having enough money for buying the stuff that you need, it’s about being creative and I believe being an artist is more than just making something fascinating with the new products and buying every single new supplies that comes out and getting all of available items in the market. I think it’s more about how you get from the stuff you already have. That means having an artistic skill to me. I don’t mean that you shouldn’t get the necessary products, I just want to say that if I myself have enough money to buy something that isn’t necessary and more importantly if I can make it myself by being more creative, it feels more artistic than just buying everything that I can afford. I really like this video and your idea. Thanks for sharing. I’ve subscribed to your channel and I also will share it on my Pinterest page and with my friends too.
I could see putting hot glue on tube for texture.

I think you're right! That would work perfectly with this.😊
You could also use a lint roller to add a pattern to.
Love this idea. Brilliant!
Oh, I will definitely be doing this!
Fabulous! Thanks so much.
Brilliant! Thank you!!!
What great ideas! Thank you for sharing.
I just stumbled upon this and what a treasure!
Great tips. Thanks! I’m wondering if 2-sided tape or stapling would work to affix.
I love this. I’ll be saving some t.p rolls🙌🏻❤️
Thank you for your ideas 💡. I love it! Very good idea. Especially if you have a budget.
That is awesome! Never thought of that lol
What a wonderful idea
Very cool. Thank you.
Thanks for the tips
So cool! ❤
The best use of a toilet paper roll I’ve seen! For most of the video I was wondering what you were going to roll it with, I was thinking of brayers…. Big “aha” moment when you used the paint rolling tool! I’m really happy you just popped up, thanks for a really fun video! I have subscribed. Erica❤
Great idea!!✨👌🏼
Great ideas!
Thank you so much I really really enjoyed watching you create those textures from very simple items you can buy cheaply. The results are amazing too. I’ve subscribed and given you a thumbs up too

Well done you!!! Who would have thought??? I have paid for stencils and did think of making the flat ones by cutting out bits, but that was so time consuming and no guarantee that it would work. This is brilliant !!! THANK YOU 😜

Brilliant. I just made a few with stuff on hand. I fussy cut the final fitting and then clamped the seam between two popsickle sticks while it dried for an almost seamless transition. Great idea!!!

I love this! And I already have everything at home, including the placemat, yay! So going to make a few rolls, thank you. 🖤 I think these would also work beautifully for making your own wrapping paper, or when used with fabric paint to make cool printed fabric! And trying these with my gell plate too. I love making my own stuff too, simply because I get bored with using the same thing over and over, and I always feel bad when I bought something expensive, only for it to get used a few times. I'd rather buy more paint. 😉 Also love the idea of using stuff I find around the house, or from the recycling bin. Thanks for this great idea.

What a great idea! You know you could even use a hot glue gun to make your patterns on the toilet paper roll. I’m gonna try that first. I’m always looking for ways to use up toilet paper rolls, and I can never think of anything, but this is great!

It's a textured shelf liner. It feels a bit rubbery. Hope this helps.
