THANK YOU FOR SHARING!
Wax alone wont protect from scratches....Im going to have to add Gator Hide over both my waxed display cases.
I dunno what kind of acrylics she's used but I've ingested artist acrylic (by accident) and nothing happened. I wonder if she's using some weird hybrid. I also don't know what kind of chalk paint she's using but the kind I have used (rustoleum chalked) will come off with a fingernail unless you top coat it.
I was about to say. I use acrylic paint for my art - dunno what she’s talking about. I think she’s just promoting chalk paint.
So you can’t use to change a dark wood to lighter?
The best tip I got, was that I can "forget" about this type off upgrade, as it will be placed over old vinyl. Paint it will be. ;)
Do you really need such a long intro? I almost skipped to the next video because that is SO annoying
calm down kid. no need to get upset over a youtube video
Can we watch the videos on your channel?
It looks amazing, such a transformation. A little tip if you ever stencil again…always do the first coat in the same colour as the floor that way when you put the top colour on it won’t bleed through the stencil and you’ll have crisp lines.
What is the name of the last brush you recommended
Women like her...just annoying.
The intro is too long.
Wow you did an incredible job! Bravo 👏
Thank you soooo much!
Do the wallpaper ruins the cabinets i mean after removing it
Actually no. Theres no permanent glue so it just pulls off!
There's no such word as 'heighth' :)
Also using a snap off blade is better, it keeps a very sharp blade each time you cut. Thanks for this!
That fuzzy part of the wallpaper is a backing of the wallpaper. Just saying. Wallpaper unless it’s a vinyl paper Always has a backing. So it’s like taking two layers of paper off . Also it’s way easier to remove old wallpaper, with a garden sprayer, and diff. Or just warm water. Spraying it and letting it soak in saves a ton of time. Then you can remove the old paste as well. But I’m watching because I don’t install peel and stick in my daily wallpaper job. But I have had to do several jobs lately with this type. I could scream. But I’ll glad you’re trying to show people how to do this. Thank you! 🙏
Thank you 👌very helpful for me since It’s my first time to put wallpaper 😎
Thank you for this, I'm attempting my first wall paper application and so worried i'll screw it up. So this was very helpful especially the leveler with the string! I bought beautiful banana leaf tropical print and can't wait to turn my kitchen into a tropical vibe!
So glad it was helpful!!
I would love to try Amy Howard products but just can't afford to purchase them at the moment. Milk paint gives a gorgeous finish, however, I did hear you say it's a finish that can't be achieved with Chalk Paint. That's definitely not the case, I do Old World finishes primarily on my pieces and you can absolutely obtain texture, cracks and that authentic aged look. It's simply a matter of knowing how. You don't even have to (though sometimes it's fun and creates an amazing result) to purchase texture mediums or crackle mediums to be able to get that effect. It can all be done with the paint alone, depending on your brand and application. Annie Sloan, DIY, APC, Daydream, and Nordic Chic all work well for this. That said, I'd still love to play around with AH products if I ever get the chance. Great tutorial, and thank you for sharing.
Where is the LONG version of this video?
Huh? I use and clean acrylics with water, baby
Please please turn the music off or make it quieter.
Just playing with some milk paint today. I was making the cracked gesso way to thin, I guess. Mine wasn't cracking at all. I've watched several of her video's (Amy's) and I like the thicker. I'll also have to try the mind your bee's wax, I have the antiquing one and sometimes it makes it darker than I want. Glad to see I can just paint over a wood piece without removing the finish. I thought we had to do that first. Looking forward to more videos.
Beautiful! Thank you
Great live!
Hi! Just found you. Could you tell me what’s in your gel art ink please? Lovely table scape btw.
excellent presentation. Exactly what I needed to finish my door. Thanks!
You are the perfect instructor I subscribed !
Oh yeah, forgot to say this looks amaaaazing! 😍😍😍
Thank you so much for making a video of this! I've been searching everywhere and finally found the link through Pinterest. Ah, Pinterest, you have everything! Hahaha! 😄 So, we had a Shar Pei when I was younger who was really neurotic. I guess he accidentally locked himself in my room while we were all gone and ate a hole through my door! Like, a BIG one! No idea how he accomplished that in a period of a few hours, but he did! Granted, it wasn't a solid wood door, but still... there was little evidence other than the hole so eat definitely straight up ATE it!😨😱🤢🤣
Totally wrong unfortunately.. All pigmented water based paints are either latex or emulsions (meaning solids or oil dispersed in water). Regardless of that, paints labeled as "Latex" are for interior use, and Acrylics are for exterior use. There is no particular reason for this. It's just something that has stuck. Chalk paints can be either Latex or Acrylic. Chalk is added to the paint making it easy to sand.
Now amy Howard’s one step paint. There is no acrylic or latex in it at all.
@@revive-up-cycledheartup-cy381 Amy Howard’s one step paint is actually interior paint (latex) with chalk.
Great tutorial. So glad I found you on KZread.
Thank you! It’s nice to meet you. You made my day. 🙌🏻
What do you clean kitchen cabinets with before using chalk paint? I just painted several items with Annie Sloan paint. They came out great! So I moved on to my kitchen table today and plan on doing kitchen cabinets next. The kitchen table had areas that bled through some brown spots. I thoroughly scrubbed with dawn and then afterwards with Mrs. Meyers all purpose spray. It worked well on my other items, but I"m guessing it is because it is the kitchen and stuff I couldn't see deeper in the wood. Don't know...But now super nervous to do the cabinets because unlike the table, I won't distress them or do a stain/glaze. I want them just fresh paint look.
That’s a great question.! So you should always clean with clean slate before you paint so it adheres well for the long haul otherwise it might chip or peel off down the road. As for bleed… that’s an entirely different problem. I have a whole video on it through 🙌🏻 I’ll post it to this message but generally you need to 1) clean it 2) out down a layer of chalk paint 3) then a layer of SHELLAC based primer (this seals the tannins in the wood so it doesn’t bleed though) then 4) another layer of chalk paint. 5) seal with wax or matte sealer
Here’s the video kzread.info/dash/bejne/epl3ptGEiZyuj7w.html
White vinegar twice woud do the same job I reckon, plus it's probably massively more economical and environmentally friendlier.
Yes it likely is more economical it I haven’t had the same results with vinegar. It’s what I used when I first started along with TSP. I like clean slate results the best, but if it works for you, more power to ya 😉
great video!
Thank you! Hope it was helpful
Looks so elegant and easy to do. Excellent tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! It really is and it adds just the rig HR touch 🙌🏻
Holy crap that's ugly, there's furniture makers crying themselves to sleep because of shit like this and the morons who've made it fashionable
I would be so ever grateful for ideas utilizing old dresser drawers that are sturdy, wide and deep as a seat with a lift top for storage adding repurposed white spindle legs from an old eating table, and a unique wooden back like this one. I found the wooden table legs at the curb for trash pick up. My thoughts are to cut them down the appropriate length to attach underneath the drawer. Am i making any sense to you?
I’m sensory I didn’t see your comment. If you still need some ideas, email The pics of your furniture to me and I can shoot you some ideas. My email is [email protected]

Thank you so so much!
@@revive-up-cycledheartup-cy381 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
VERY CREATIVE....... NICE....
That means the world!! I’m thinking of making another one and selling it. Do you think I should?
One thing, I just subscribed, and I know this is spooky music, but can we ditch the pop music on sone videos? It’s your call, but I’m older and hate that stuff! 😇💕
Thanks for your feed back. I try to pick background music that is happy and uplifting. I have a very limited selection to choose from in my video editing software so unfortunately it may not be for everyone. That said, I hope you can continue to enjoy my content and that it doesn’t annoy you too much 😉 also you can turn off the sound and just read the captions. Just select the closed captioned options in the bottom right hand corner.
Milk paint that is liquid in a can...is usually acrylic ...they call it milk paint because of the sheen of the finish but it is not a true milk paint...and u cannot get the choppy look that the powdered milk paint can give. Ive seen many people buy Rustoleum milk paint and or general finishes milk paint and they are shocked when it doesnt chip or crack for them...its because its not true milk paint. If it doesnt come in powder form...it is not a true milk paint
You’re absolutely correct and I hate that. It seems like false advertising…
I don’t believe there’s anything you can’t do Heidi! I Love your stair makeover!!
That’s very kind but I just like to learn a lot and try new things. You should hear me TRY to sing lol!
Great effort!
That vinyl float flooring is surprisingly easy to install. Plus it just wedges up against the walls so you don't need to adhere to the floor at all. As long as your floor is level, you can lay that stuff over top of tile!
I know right!! Have you used it before? I’m assuming so…
I'm a certified installer of float floor, epoxy coatings, and polished concrete. Basically, I make floors pretty. Lol
1. 1:00 Prep (prep! prep!) wall(s) - clean, free from old wallpaper / debris, drywall painted, holes filled in 2. 2:51 Measure well - take into account pattern repeat 3. 8:54 Don’t pull/stretch wallpaper 4. 9:43 Hang from left to right 5. 12:02 Buy a good exacto knife
Thanks for that! It’s helpful ❤️
Turned out lovely
Oh thank you so much!!!
