    Debi - Don’t be surprised if your dad is not single for very much longer ! You have showcased his sweetness & handiness, along with the adorable Levi, so much that I’m surprised the California ladies aren’t showing up on his doorstep ! A good man & a lovable Lab - that’s a pretty irresistible combination ! 🥰 P.S. Bobby deserves a little love, too ! Has no one snatched him up yet ?!?! I’m telling you, Debi, you are blessed to have those two good guys in your life - and Bobby cooks, too ! I have never had a friend, boyfriend, or husband who could (or would) do anything around the house ! Blessings as always to all of you from sunny Central Florida ! 🥰

    Everything you describe about your hoard, your creative dreams and your de-stressing at thrift stores is me ! Except I work two unrelated jobs and have PTSD as well as ADHD and my Executive Dysfunction really makes it interesting because I get quite anxious doing housework and decluttering. I wonder how many of us creatives have these conditions. (some or all) I love you for being so upfront about your life and admire ALL you do get done ! Your work is an inspiration !

    Debi, I absolutely love the eclectic boho maximalist vibe of your home and store. I love all of the bright and happy colors.
    I have a bit of a hoarding problem myself. After all, if it's good junk, is it really junk? I, unfortunately, don't have a store. I'm out in the country and don't have anyone to really help me with a yard sale, so that makes it a little bit difficult to pair things down. I'm working on it a little bit at a time. My work schedule makes it a little difficult as well. You are lucky to have some wonderful friends and family to help you out. Your dad is most definitely a national treasure, and I think every girl should have a dad like that!

    When you feel bad about yourself please remember that you inspire every time you post and long time after this woman in Eastern Europe, Romania. I am mesmerised by your créations and you inspired me to use the colors that I LIKE, not that everybody says one should use, to paint and decorate my house. So... lots of bright blue it is. You have a little wonderland there. I do understand that you feel it is too much clutter but this is how creative people are. We need our stuff and our mess. I do de clutter regularly but I do find myself feeling guilty sometimes.
    I love your dad and sister. Your dad reminds me of my dad who passed... dads like this are a national treasure indeed. So, Debi, when you feel bad, remember there is a lady journalist in Romania right on the border with Ukraine that is, who comes home from work after writing about the most terrible things imaginable in a war and relaxes watching videos that you create and creates as well. I love you Debi!

      Maybe she needs a decluttering buddy. They can exchange the chore and each has to get rid of what they are told to let go of. They could be strict but not cruel, ‘cause they know the other person would be sorting through their stuff. Even better if they have different personal styles so they won’t be tempted to scoop up what the other one is letting go. I don’t know. Just an idea.

    Just a thought but what if you took all the stuff that is broken or not wanted, etc and put it in one area of your shop so peeps can rummage through it and buy it as is? There might be others who want the broken and discarded things you are trying to get rid of. The might need something for their project. This way you don't have to stop thrifting and buying and just continue to add to that section of the store. You wouldn't have to feel guilty then and you might make some money to support your habit! Just a thought I had.

    Debi, you are a bright lite! Stop being so hard on yourself, just keep going, you are changing😍
    Every time you let go of something, to bring yourself into balance, ( which is what you are trying to do), say to yourself, “ good job Debi, you are really getting this” . And if you do go to shop, just make sure you are clear you need it or can use it NOW. Then, be ok with your decision, don’t judge. Blessings Debi, I love your SPARK!😘🙏🏻💖

    One of the reasona I enjoy and love watching your chanel is because you actually create things out of what you find for the most part anyway, Its the creative part of us artist that keeps our creative minds going and its very difficult for you to over come that earge of collecting that your so use to its in your DNA now but dont worry you know what to do and your getting it done. 👏

    Your Dad is so great, we could all do with someone as helpful in our lives… You said you’re not a hoarder, I can identify with that, from the outside looking in, I probably look like one, my problem is I see the potential in everything and I want to give it all a makeover, add to that I have a serious dose of money anxiety and struggle to throw things away unless I’ve had a good shot at trying to sell it first.

    That is what I do too: buying lots of stuff for me which I do not need😁 But it is so pretty!! It just shows our artistic nature to create something new!

    I SOOO relate to your “hoarding” dilemma. I think it’s common for “creatives.” My attention is often hijacked when I spot antique, vintage, & well-loved artwork, frames, furniture, pottery, & other decorative items, because I see so many potential ways to give them new lives by refinishing, repurposing, & upcycling. Our creative stashes may be daunting to others, but it’s difficult to part with items that have potential … there just aren’t enough hours in the day. 😢
    Ooo! I had an idea when you mentioned that you need to do something with all the stuff in the future classroom workspace - perhaps students could use the items you are reluctant to part with as blanks/substrate on which to learn techniques you are teaching in classes. It may be easier to relinquish when you know they’ll be reloved & won’t be going into a landfill. Just a thought 💭

    Debi I too am going through something with my neck been on medical leave with my job since feb (mine is causing double vision and dizziness! -so wish it was just my neck hurting -when I look down) my pastime is going to every flea market I can find on the weekend for inspiration I fill my cart with things that inspire me, Glass , mid century and boho treasures , birds!> by the time I get to cash registar I have put it all back. next time I go if it is still on the shelf I grab it. (my parents were hoarders!) now I have a bunch of their stuff too.... I am weeding through it slowly... God bless you and your family! Hope your neck gets to feeling better soon! ICE and Aspere cream work the best for me.

Seeing your family along with your painting projects AND the stories is just awesome, Debi! 🎉🎉🎉 "Give up the dream", is SUCH a reality Creatives must come to grips with lol! God is THE Creative and He gets to spread HIS creative dreams w/o 'hoarding', but we human Creatives don't hv a whole universe to spread our dreams in yet ❤❤❤😂😂😂😂

Debi don’t worry if you are…it will all work out and be very successful! Your home is fun with lots of color. I love your chair and wonder if you can link where to buy it. Thanks for sharing .💜

    My idea is for Debi to do a CZcams collab with one of the channels that focus on decluttering and/or organizing. The Crafty organizer is in Long Beach. Seems like she’d be a good fit as she’s crafty, very into DIY, and near enough. I also like the Clutter Bug. The more I think about it, the more I love the idea. Women helping women, promoting their businesses , CZcamsrs collaborating, as well as useful advice for those of us watching. It’s a pretty good bet there is a organizing /decluttering CZcamsr in San Diego.

    Your ability to turn discarded items into art is amazing. Especially your freestyle use of transfers and molds and paint. Re: your bright colours. You are ahead of the trend. With the Barbie movie success, that pallette will fly off the shelf! I’m sure you know that If you want to tone them down you can always add a little of the opposite colour on the colour wheel. But above all, you do you. It’s what makes you unique. We all need more colour and creativity in our lives. It’s why many of us watch your channel. Long live pink 🌸

    Gosh I wish I could come create things with you. I love what you do with the old frames and other old pieces and bring them back to life. You should come see my clutter. It's kind of a partially organized hoard. Your home and store are coming together nicely. I cannot wait to see how it turns out for the event.

    Nope! Got to let things go. :) I found that a one in, one out policy works. If you buy three new things, three other things must leave the house forever. It also helps to think that the things you let go of might be perfect for someone in need or just starting out with a new house or dorm. :)

    Ok, I’d love your candle making supplies‼️ we lost most everything in hurricane 🌀 Ian last sept 28 here in Florida. We’ve been in a trailer that leaks, a shower I couldn’t turn around in , mirrors I can’t see about half my eyes (I’m 5’2”) and the sewer leaks. We moved back in last month. It’s good to be inside (before hurricane season hit in JUNE: 2023. My art studio is gone of supplies. But I’ll replace. No doubt. It’s SO good to be back inside th feel safer. Love your videos! I’m older but need work and this is great, inspiring and happy. You’ve gotten me through a lot. ❤
