I bought one of those silkscreen stencils. It lost its sticky. Do you know how to fix it?
I keep trying to upvote. But I've already upvoted. This woman is next level.
Here's an idea for you for the flags if you ever want them to be more distressed.
Cheap little flags like that are usually made of polyester and that's nearly impossible to dye or tint. (I've tried. Many times. smh) To increase the distress on them, I'd do the coffee like you did, then do a second treatment. First, spray with water so that it's misted wet. Then pinch up instant coffee and sprinkle it where you want it. Let it dry completely, then spray it with a matte sealer. Even if the coffee falls off, the little dark brown part from the coffee bleeding will set and still be there.
Another idea that I have not tried is to hit them with distress ink, then seal. I don't know if that one would work out, but your darn tootin' I'm going to find out! lol!
I love your vision, girl.
Hey Teresa. I love you so much and look forward to every new video. I’m wanting the French wording stencil but I couldn’t find it. I’m terrible at technology. Lol loved the crunchy, chippy chair and the bread box.
Loved these projects Teresa! The burlap placemats were genius! So easy and so pretty. And I was amazed at how different the metal breadbox looked after you transformed it. Terrific!
Teresa you make such beautiful diy's!!! I loved everything you made!!💗 Tfs❤
👍🤗🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀👍👍👍
I love all of these projects. I like how you did the placemats.
Teresa, I'm new to your channel, and after binge-watching your videos, all I can think to say, is a cliche: "Where have you been all my life?!" Lol.
Loved the little flags and the "crusty" chair, I love them too and have several 😀
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Loved these projects so much! I have the stamps and the placemats! The only change I will make is putting the stamp on the other side of the placemat. That way, when a plate is on top, you see the animals head instead of it’s butt. 😁
love your decor!
I love the Cherub on books
Ohh I love the breadbox
Teresa, LOVE how you used sticks to dress up those little flags! I am adopting your ideas for my projects!
I love all the projects but my favorites are the placemats and the bow with the metal frame. The breadboard is nice too!!! Thanks for sharing.
Teresa…you are amazingly creative…I love your flavours!
Did the chalk paint come off your mesh stencil? I was surprised by the use of paint on a mesh stencil.
I love the torn ticking garland. Love the patriotic colors. It's awesome
Love all your DIY projects; and that chair and your tea cup napkins are just so charming!
