 It's Drew here from Lone Fox and welcome back to my channel. Today I have a new video that's also like kind of not exactly new and you're probably asking yourself what exactly does that mean and I'm going to tell you in just a second. So as many of you guys know over on my main channel I'm Drew Scott which I've had for about five or six years now. I do a lot of men's fashion and lifestyle which is my first channel that I ever started here on YouTube. But there was a time on that channel where I actually uploaded a ton of DIY projects and I really was focusing a lot on home decor and DIY and I realized that a lot of those actual followers didn't really intersect. Like the men's fashion followers were interested in the DIY and the DIY followers were interested in the men's fashion which is very like common. I could totally sense and see why because they're completely different industries essentially. So that is why I created the second channel that you're on right now Lone Fox because I have a passion for both. Like I love men's fashion and I love DIY and supplies or not supplies DIY and home decor and I want to thank everybody here so so much for getting this channel to already almost 125,000 subscribers that is absolutely insane. But there are videos over on my main channel that I privated a long time ago that I'm still so proud of and happy of and the content is so amazing and there are so many videos over on that channel that were DIY focused videos where I had so many amazing projects on them that I have unlisted for quite a while now which essentially means just take them off my channel but not delete them. But now I was thinking to myself why don't I just redownload them, just up the videos a little bit like add a little extra editing in there, color them up and maybe even record some new audio for them and just re-upload them here and make sure that the projects are absolutely amazing. Cut out any of them that maybe aren't up to date or trendy and just upload that content again for you guys because it gives you an extra video. So many more projects and those videos also don't go to waste because there was so much work put into those and the projects are still the best ever. They're so affordable, so trendy, so modern up to date. So for today's video, I redownloaded some of those old videos, cut them up, picked up my favorite DIYs and incorporated them into this video where you get a total of 10 DIY projects and I can't wait to hear what you guys think. So definitely leave a thumbs up and let me know which project in this video was your favorite one. And yeah, I can't wait to do more of these videos in the future. So let me know your thoughts in the comment section below and let's just get into today's new video. This applies for this first DIY are super minimal. All you need is a canvas, some flowers or leaves and parchment paper. So I gathered these from outside, literally went around, picked flowers, leaves, petals, whatever I thought was interesting outdoors. And all you have to do is press them and how you do this is you lay down a piece of parchment or wax paper and you lay down your florals or like botanical pieces that you found another piece of parchment paper on top and just layer some heavy books on top of it. And I actually kept this pressed for about four days under the stock of books you see right here. And once they were all completely pressed, they looked like this and this is how they're going to look and they're actually going to retain the shape and color, which is extremely nice. You basically pressed all of the life out of them. And this is what they look like now. So I layered them on my canvas found out where I wanted to place them and just sort of maneuvered it around for a while and found out I love this variation here glued them down with hot glue and you are done with your super inexpensive canvas. Yeah, DIY number two. All you're going to need is some sea glass, spray paint, a glue stick, a vase, ruler, paper and scissors. So I absolutely love the outlook of this frosted glass vase. I thought it looks so expensive and very West Elm ask. And what I did was cut out two inch strips from paper and just cut out some triangle masks and basically you can cut out any shape you would like out of just regular old printer paper and apply a bit of Elmer's glue stick to the back of that and just let the Elmer's glue stick dry because once this dries, it actually turns into a slightly tacky but removable masking like piece. It's kind of like a post-it note. If you guys know what that is, it's basically a post-it note. You can put it on there and remove it. So I actually place these down and wherever the paper is the spray paint is not going to go on the glass. So I then brought it to a box and sprayed a layer of this Krylon sea glass spray paint, which I got at Michael's for about four dollars with a coupon code or a coupon and then you just pull off the little masking pieces and it shows the clear glass through and I would highly suggest that you also put a mask on the top of it so that the spray paint doesn't get on the inside but it is removable with acetone. Just let you know. For the hanging your DIY you're going to need a square mirror, some E6000 and exacto knife, some chain spray paint of choice, a piece of wood ruler and some of those screw hooks. And what you're going to start off by doing is taking a small piece of wood and cutting it down to 12 inches in width and I actually just found this 24 inch piece from Michael's already like this. It was sold like this for like a dollar 50 and I just cut it directly in half by swiping over it with an exacto knife a few times. I then proceeded to screw some of these little hooks in that are meant for hanging things on the ceiling or whatever they're meant for. I use them and those are going to be what's going to hang up the jewelry and I suggest that you screw them towards the back more than opposed to the front because it can split split the wood since this wood is very thin and then after I got those in I actually sprayed both pieces of wood even the one with the little screw hooks on it with this hammered glass spray paint and then use my E3 E6000 adhesive which is like super super strong industrial cement basically to adhere down both sides. And this is just going to make sure that they stay super secure on top of the glass mirror and then I just let that sit for a few minutes and or not a few minutes I more let it sit for overnight and then I added on the chain as well using some big globs of E6000 adhesive and that basically finishes off your hanging mirror with jewelry holder. This DIY may be the easiest but it's one of my favorites and all you're going to need is a lamp shade some wood clips paint and a hot glue gun so super minimal supplies and I first started off by taking my wood clips and painting them black and I just painted half of them black because I actually wanted it to be a variety of wood and black so I first started off by just gluing the plain wood clips to the very top and I did it about every three inches and then below that in between I actually glued the black clips that I did right in between the brown clips and then I just finished off with a bit of paint on top of the black and you're basically done you can clip your mementos on and that's your new lampshade. This candle is inspired by the Lobo candles and I'm obsessed all you need is a tin can a wick some old candles and a hammer so again super minimal supplies and you can reuse your candles which is amazing. So I started off by taking my jar and literally just hammering it I hammered it so much with a hammer it was so much fun and I just went around the jar gave it some nicks and I love the rustic distressed look of this I just think it looks so industrial and is perfect for my apartment space as well and after that I went ahead and put a skillet on the stove on very low heat and took two old candles the autumn one on the right is new and used or new and unused but I just wanted to burn it down for this DIY and I actually kept them on the stove for about 25 minutes until they melted down to wax basically and I pulled out the old wicks and then basically all you're going to have to do is take them off the heat let them sit for about 10 minutes so they're not blazing hot and glue your wick down on the inside of your hammered container and then simply pour the wax in and I suggest doing this over the top of a surface where wax gets on it it's not a big deal so just pour your wax in wait for it to dry and you have your new candle it's definitely updated and cool. Let's get into this wall hanging and all you're going to need is some wood dowels yarn parchment paper paint and hot glue gun so I first started off with these wood dowels which I found at Michael's for about $3 they're just like toothpicks without the points and the nice thing about gluing on top of parchment paper is that the hot glue peels off instantly it doesn't stick at all so you can glue on top of it create shapes and then pull them off later so I actually created these hexagon shapes using these small wooden dowels and I created two hexagons that were smaller or just like hexagon shapes themselves and then I created a larger centerpiece that was actually three hexagons connected and a cool little tip for you guys is you can actually burn down those weld points with the tip of your hot glue gun so if you do need to like melt that down or make it look smoother or anything if you added too much glue use the tip to melt it down and this is a center point right here this like triple hexagon shape and then all you're going to need to do is take a bit of string yarn whatever you wanted to use to attach and attach your shapes together and you really have your brand new wall mobile hanging and I think this would look so cool on a window on a mirror on a wall anywhere you want to add a little bit of extra decor I also forgot to mention that I actually kept it plain wood over the black paint that I was originally going to do because I liked the wood look much better I feel like a pillow is always necessary so I'm starting off with some Jersey pillowcases black dye a paint brush and some foam cups and I also did use a trash bag which I'm laying down on the table right here just to protect my surface and I'm going to lay out my foam cups or plastic cups or whatever you can just dispose of later and I added a half cup of warm water or hot water to each cup and then what I did after that was used the writ powder dye and I put one teaspoon in each cup but I varied it so one teaspoon in the first two teaspoons in the second three in the third four in the fourth and five in the fifth so basically it's just a more concentrated dye as I go down and the sucky thing kind of about this was that when you didn't have enough of the black dye it was actually purple which I didn't like at first but as it dried I actually kind of grew on me and I did like the purple so keep that in mind if you're wanting a black or gray gradient you're not really going to get it with this dye it's going to be more purple based and all you're going to do is take your white white paint brush and I just use like one of those painters paint brushes that you paint a house with and it just allowed me to soak up a lot of dye at once and I created a gradient like this and actually all and I also did this one which I think looks so cool with the split down the center and the other half is white in love with this would you believe me if I told you these coasters costed under two dollars to make and all you're going to need is some foam core some plethora fabric scissors an exact knife ruler and e 6000 adhesive so you're first going to start off by taking your phone board and this is literally like that project board you use for science projects and it's a foam based one and you're going to cut them into four by four inch squares I just found that this was the nicest size for a coaster and then I used this plethora fabric I found at Joe Anne's on sale for a dollar for a quarter yard of it and I just cut out with about an inch around each edge I did it very roughly and I e 6000 adhesive to the foam down to the backing and then cut off the corners like I'm doing here so basically you're going to want a tiny bit exposed on the corner like I'm showing because when you fold it over like this you want that corner to be pointed and you don't want it to be showing the foam core board all I'm going to do after that is take the e 6000 glue it down and then press a book on top of it so that it keeps the weight on there and just let it dry for a few hours the supplies for this rustic bowl are so simple all you're going to need is a glass bowl some air dry clay paint and a paintbrush so this is the air dry clay I actually got this at Target in the kids section it's very easy to work with I love it I'm never going to switch back to the normal clay plus it dries in the air which is really nice compared to having to like physically go bake it in an oven you know so I took this dollar bowl from Target it's just a glass bowl and I covered it in a layer of the air dry clay and once you have your full layer on I used a little bit of water on my fingertips to just smooth the surface and I actually learned this in a ceramics class I took in high school so it's coming in handy right now but you can just use a little bit of water it smooths down the surface and it makes all cracks disappear and just everything just kind of meld a little bit better and then I used a small piece of parchment paper and a heavy object to create a new bottom for this bowl and then after that I used a paint brush and I use the end the opposite end of the paint brush to draw in some horizontal lines just because I wanted a little bit of texture and then once again went back in with that water to just clean up the lines and this made it look so much better like if I didn't use this it would have looked a little bit rough and jagged which it did on the top which I was able to fix with this nail file so I used a nail file to rough in or just clean off those edges and lastly went in with a little bit of paint so this is just watered down black paint and I just painted it however I felt I did a little bit of an ombre and then also filled in all of those lines to just deepen the design and added my signature on the bottom for authenticity got to save one of my favorites for last and all you're going to need for this is some more foam core and album e 6000 black cord and exacto knife and your ruler so what you're going to start off by doing is measuring out to 14 by 14 inch squares on your phone board and keeping minus phone board is literally from the dollar tree so super inexpensive and after you cut out your 14 by 14 squares on one of them you're going to cut a window out and how I did this was measured in one and a quarter inches on all edges and then cut out the square it created in the center which you could see me doing right now that will create the window which you're going to see the album through so what I did was I then cut out two half inch strips of the foam core and just whatever size because I'm actually going to fit it to length here so you're going to layer album down put the half inch piece down and then fit it to length so you're going to want it to go around three edges because you're going to want the album to be able to slip through the top so I took my e 6000 adhesive and glued it down to the album as close as I could to the album because we're going to have a little bit of courting on the outside in between the sandwich frame and the frame backing if that makes sense you'll see what I mean in a second here so I glued those down like such and then I added another layer of glue on top of those pieces and sandwiched on the top of the frame so this is going to finish off the frame you can slip your album in the black cord goes all the way around and you tied into not you hang it on the wall and this was like a $2 album frame which I am totally obsessed with you can customize it however you'd like as well
