The December 2021 Club Couture™ Transfer is a great way to kick off your new year, sending vibes for good things to happen in 2022. For new chalkers and those who prefer a more simple project, this Chalk Transfer® design looks amazing chalked all in one color. For meticulous crafters and those who like to take things above and beyond, it’s a great chance to show off detail work, adding different hues to the design.
We’re showing off a bit here with a busier design; make it pop with a surface sized to allow a bit of empty space in the border around it. We’ve chosen to add our old staple Bright White (item P181121). The subscription includes Chalkology® Paste Singles in Couture Teal, Eucalyptus, and Peachy Keen, which can be used here or saved for future projects.
No matter how you chalk it, good things are going to happen!
Supplies Included
Club Couture Transfer: Good Things—December Club Couture Chalkology® Paste Singles: Couture Teal, Eucalyptus, Peachy Keen
Additional Supplies Needed
Surface: Sylvie White Frame (9" × 12") Chalkology® Paste: Bright White
Tools: Color Trays, Fuzzing Cloth, Detail Tool, Multi-Tool, Mini Squeegee
Follow these instructions to complete this project:
1. Remove your Transfer from its packaging and carefully peel off the Transfer Backer Sheet.
2. “Fuzz” the Transfer by gently pressing onto a Fuzzing Cloth and carefully pulling it upward. This will make the Transfer easier to remove from the surface after you’ve applied the paste.
3. Center the Good Things Transfer on the surface and smooth it out to ensure it has properly adhered and that there are no bubbles or wrinkles.
4. Knead your Chalkology Paste Singles. Cut open the corner of each packet and squeeze the desired amount of paste onto a Color Tray, using a new tray for each color.
5. With the curved edge of your Multi-Tool, thoroughly mix your jar of Bright White Chalkology Paste and scrape excess paste from the jar sides.
6. Use your Mini Squeegee, Multi-Tool, and Detail Tool to apply color over your Transfer (see “Color and Placement Suggestions”). Select your tool based on whichever size best fits the various Transfer elements. Once the screen portions of the design are completely covered, use your tools to remove excess paste as evenly as possible; excess paste can be scraped back into the tray or jar. The more excess paste you remove, the better the result will be.
7. For best results, divide your project into sections and use the chalk-and-pull method. This allows you to work in smaller sections without having the paste dry in the screen, which would give you patchy results. Chalk the top section of the design and peel back only that portion of the Transfer to let the paste dry on the surface before continuing (use the Quick Dry Tool for a fast dry). To prevent any stretching in the Transfer, peel from the center or from both corners, instead of peeling diagonally.
8. Gently lay the Transfer back down over the chalked section. Ensure that the next section is fully adhered, and repeat these steps as you work your way down the Transfer.
9. Once your design is fully chalked and before the paste dries, remove your Transfer from the surface and immediately clean the Transfer with cool water (do not let it soak).
10. Dry the Transfer flat with the sticky side up. Once completely dry, reapply the Transfer Backer Sheet and store flat.
11. Show off your latest DIY project to friends and family. And remember, good things are going to happen!
Our basic instructions go like this: choose a surface and Transfer, add some paste or ink, and start creating. With the Best Basics Chalk It Up Kit, you’ll have what you need to carry out those instructions and you’ll be well on your way to artistry!
This kit includes two of our favorite surfaces: Board & Base (perfect for A-sized Transfers) and a Sylvie White Frame (perfect for B-sized Transfers). Both surfaces are reusable with Chalkology Paste, and can be used in either landscape or portrait orientation. Plus, that Board & Base is reversible so you can have two projects to display all at once!

This is such a great item to use inside or outside your house. This sign only took about 5 minutes to make including set up and clean up. I love these projects since they are so easy to do. Plus, you can just spray it with water and wipe it off if you wanted to reuse the sign for another project.
Oh my “gourd”! A funny autumnal play on words brings your Transfer collection to a whole new level. We know that projects made with this Transfer are going to get your friends and family to smile, especially when you’re giving those projects as seasonal gift items! For a different look, try using just the “I love fall!” portion by itself or in conjunction with any of our other autumn-themed offerings.
Step 2: Open your chalk pastes and stir them up so they are ready to be used. Add in some distilled water if needed but then new Chalk Pastes are amazing!
Step 3: Grab your transfer and a Fuzzing Cloth and fuzz well. I mean REALLY FUZZ! Use the back courser side of needed.
Step 4: Lay your fuzzed transfer down and start applying you Chalk Paste to the transfer. I used 3 different Chalk Pastes colors. I started from the top with the Black Velvet Chalk paste, and then chalked the Gourd in Orange Peel Chalk Paste. If you are a slow chalked, I would use the Paste and Pull method. The Paste and Pull method is where you chalk and then lift the transfer up and pull down to the area you have chalked to. Hold it up until the paste looks dry. Then carefully lay it back down and continue chalking! The last part is to use the Bright White Chalk Paste in the words on the bottom.
Step 5: Once you are done applying Chalk Paste, lift transfer up and wash it well. Let air dry and once dry, replace backer sheet
You are all done! Now it's time to show off your new DIY Oh My Gourd you made!
Watch me make it here:
Are you excited for Fall? I know I am!
Do you make stuff for your home? Let me know! I would love to hear all about it!
