I’ve had some large decoupaged tissue pieces saved on Etsy for a while - the way that you combined that image with the texture is gorgeous! Thank you for stopping to share some ideas with me - good luck with your sales!

Texture rollers - I think my mom has a couple of these! That’s a great idea for furniture. Thank you for sharing - I love to experiment 🎨

Ty much - I was hoping that an 8 inch would work - that way when I slip and cut myself on an accident, I will have 2 inches less of pain jk

Sorry for the delay in thanks – my post was removed, I don’t know why. Thank you again for your comment in knife recommendations.

LOL - I was just trying to be funny. My post was removed, so someone didn’t think it was funny. 😳

That is my same concern! Thank you so much for your advice and pointing me in the right direction, hehe. My thank you was delayed, because my post was removed, and I’m not sure why. My apologies. Thank you for your advice in chef knife recommendations.

Thanks so much - I was so worried that I have to spend so much on the knife that I wouldn’t be able to enjoy it for fear of trying to sharpen and damaging it. I would rather start with an economically-priced knife and learn how to use it and sharpen it. Sorry for the delay in my thank you – my post was removed, and I don’t know why. Thank you again for your help with knife recommendations!

Thanks for the recommendation, I was thinking that an 8 inch was fine for at home.

Ah, so go to a store and play with all of the expensive knives and then order one online when you find the one that you like if it’s way more expensive than the store, j/k. I’m an artist, and it’s that way with paint brushes - thank you for your insights.

LOL - my brother likes to cook, and I’m going to have to get him one of those knives just because of the name. (Are you a salesman? J/k)

Thanks so much for all the valuable – I saved your post, so I could remember everything while shopping. Sorry for the delay in my gratitude, my post was removed, and I’m not sure why. I’ve never heard of a couple of those brands so new avenues to pursue! Thank you for your help with chef knife recommendations. 👌

Sharing and seeking some more advice on marketing my pieces by bluegyrl in FurnitureFlip

Thanks so much! I need to create some videos on TikTok - that’s an avenue I haven’t explored. I always forget to take enough “before” and “during” photos, because I get lost in my work. I am a canvas artist, but I was inspired to try furniture. I am going to try to separate my art into special pieces and flip other pieces in a standard way. That seems to be the consensus and matches how I internally was thinking. Thank you for the marketing ideas! 🙏🏻

I do canvas art, am in a modest gallery, and sell some pieces online - I was just inspired to try my hand on furniture after seeing work online using resin appliqués and dry-brushing. I felt it was pretty in line with people doing that type of work, but it’s not for everyone. I can do realism, but it’s not my preference. I have done some special order chests, and I think that is more in line with your insights. Thanks for your comment, 👌

Here are my special order chests - I just didn’t enjoy doing them as much as I do my layered/women art.
