Hello Heather! You created beautiful items from your stash. I love to give old things new life. Can't pick just one fave. I can pick faves of the ornaments. The Prairie Gray colored ones are my faves. There's something about the darker color with the dark wax and gold accents. Thanks for working so hard, always putting out quality creations and inspiring us. Thanks for sharing Sweet Henry. Give him a little squeeze for me. Take care and God bless 😊
Thank you so much Terri! I think those prairie grey ones are my favorite too! Henry is ready for a cuddle day on this rainy Saturday so I’ll give him some extra love from you!
I love the advent calendar and the ornaments best. I agreed with another commenter that the ornaments would look great with velvet ribbon, maybe a sage green.
I love the decoupaged tree! Love the advent tree. The swags at the top finished or "topped it" nicely. Love the angels, too.I like the ornaments. You definitely improved them. I am undecided on the tree with the harlequin background. Great creativity and inspiration, thanks.
*CONGRATULATIONS, Heather, for making over your stash to your style!!! My favorite is Project #3, the Advent Calendar. I also liked the wooden Angels,, but I have a suggestion: use them as templates to trace around them - including the wings - and cut them out of white foam board and decoupage them for ornaments for your own tree, and/or to sell in your booth. Not very much spent in materials, easy to do, lightweight and easy to transport, and at a price point everyone can afford. Plus, no two would be exactly alike❣️😇😁*
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ all are perfect. My favorites are the tree in the wood with the JRV stencil and the advent calendar. For the tree on the stencil I was thinking a large headed tack in the color silver. I love your videos. I look forward to them every Friday.
24:04 For some reason your color scheme on these ornaments, and other things reminds me of the black, and white version of “It’s a Wonderful Life”. That’s a very warm feeling, and reminiscent of the old days, because I am kinda old. Lol
Way to finish up your projects. The first tree was my favorite. I made some pallet angels similar to the ones you have. Gave them to my Mom and Sister in Law about 10 years ago for Christmas.
Awwww, you are simply AMAZING!!! Your creations are beautiful, I love the advent calendar, makes me think of a ski lodge!!! Oh my goodness, LOVE your take on the angels, they are precious just like you!!! I am beyond thankful for you my sweet friend!!!
Great projects! I love the saxophone music! One of our sons is a saxophone player. I also love the piano music. My dad was a concert pianist. I got the angels, but haven't done anything with them yet. I guess it will be a project for next year. :)
Absolutely loved all of your projects today! My favorites were the first two Christmas trees as I was shocked at the improvement of them. I’m a fan of neutral colors too. 🎉🎉🎉
Hi Heather, they're all great, but I love the Advent calendar most of all! BTW, I received my order from your website (the 3 felt animal heads) and I LOVE them! Thank you so much for sourcing them!
Love, Love, Love today’s creations! My favorite is the second Christmas tree. 🔹 FYI…when I am in need of a small ornate hanger, I use decorative tacks /nail heads. They’re not expensive and are sold by Amazon, Hobby Lobby, etc. Thank you for crushing it in today’s video!👊🏻❤
I loved the decor board with the Christmas tree and plan on making one of my own. Great video. Look forward to your next and checking out your other videos. Sincerely a new subscriber.
Wow…. Your vintage crafty tree looks great on the board that you used the harlequin stencil on. I’m glad that you didn’t use traditional Christmas colors. Your advent calendar turned out amazing. The moulds looked like icing. Perfect color choice too. And those jewel tone ornaments stole the show. Absolutely stunning.
Hey! Great inspiration with all your projects! Love the decoupage paper on your tree! It is a perfect item to leave out beyond Christmas as Winter Decor. I really like the idea of the stencil board, being able to switch it out! Thank you for a great video!
I loved all of the projects this week! Really well done. I think that maybe if you stenciled some words onto some of the planks of the hanging Christmas tree it would look a little better. If you used the pale blue color from the background it would make them look more cohesive and intentional. Just a thought 😊
I have an event calendar oi have had for a few years and would love to make it over its square and any ideas I would appreciate TFS xoxox. Love all your diys
Hi Heather, normally I don’t comment on videos, but I wanted to tell you how cute everything is that you did. I just wanted to say something. Please, please, please don’t think that I am preaching. Please believe me when I tell you that I do not judge! I just wanted to put out there about Temu since you mentioned them. I know that everyone is ordering from them. I have to admit that I have also purchased from them in the past. Yesterday my daughter read an article to me about Temu and Sheen, I think it is. The article basically stated that they sell their stuff very cheap and take a definite loss on their end hoping to put US companies out of business. Then they will corner the market and their prices will go way up on their products. Just some food for thought. I will not be purchasing from them again for this exact reason. I will will support the US companies even though it will cost me more. Again, just some food for thought. I seriously hope this doesn’t sound judgemental. That is not my intent 😊. Have a great day.
It totally doesn’t sound judgemental as I have heard similar things and it has me paused from buying from them again. Someone did ask where I got those in the last video and I hesitated sharing where for your reason exactly! 🤔. I am going to do more research about this and I appreciate you kindly sharing what you know!
I got them at target years ago the day after Christmas 90% off. Just an example of grabbing them even if the colors don’t work. Cheaper than the dollar tree!
I truly miss the days when DIY and create meant creating...not just using expensive products on old decor. Esp when upcycling thrift store junk was done with creativity and other thrift store junk or cheap items everyone had access to. NOW its just taking super expensive and/or even super limited products that are expensive AND hard to find...that most creators even get sent to them so THEY don't experience these problems..... esp when these products aare ONLY used until the NEXT *new release* expensive products come out, then its onto THAT new expensive item. Even the paints are expensive, which is fine bc people can just use their own paints, but its just a bummer to see almost EVERY SINGLE Chnl that used to be super creative & very do-able now just use the same expensive products and very little creativity. Its like consumerism & playing keep up with the newest & latest has hit every one of my old favorite chnls. I hate to see it and even more than that I have left this same comment on so many of the chnls I used to LOVE watching bc they were so inspiring. Now its just more IOD, DIY paint, JRV stencil, Roycycled papers, etc etc all with affiliate links, of course. I really miss true creativity with junk and thrift items and not everyone had links to the latest same old same old...dont believe me? Hit the search bar yourself and type in DIT Thrift and whatever name brand item used above. Its such a bummer. I USED to buy these items, but by the time Id get it, thered be a NEW release and no one was using the "old" molds, old stamps, old transfers, etc...and youre left feeling like you HAVE to get THAT new item, etc....and on it goes. I had to just stop buying bc I have boxes of stamps, molds and transfers I dont even use anymore bc it feels outdated. Its kind of ridiculous if you think about it
That sounds super frustrating! I know that I enjoy using new products and truly enjoy being able to be creative on an outlet like CZcams. Unfortunately, unless a channel is successful overnight, it is pretty much like having an unpaid internship for the first couple of years while trying to teach yourself all these behind the scene skills. Then once you are able to make some money for your time and effort it still falls short from being able to make a living on CZcams considering the time it takes away from being able to do other work. I am thankful that there are other possible streams of income so that I don’t have to quit doing what I love doing. I am sure that if you were making well below what you thought your time was worth at a job, you would either quit that job or find other ways to supplement yourself. None of us have HGTV contracts to pay the bills. 🤷🏻♀️. I hope you are able to find what you are looking for and hopefully you can be somewhere you are not disappointed…or possibly see that us creators are human and need to make a living as well.
Love, love that 1st tree w/ the decoupage paper!!!!! Like the swags they look like snow!!!!! They all turned out awesome!!!!!
Thank you so much!
@@CreateYourOwnCozy Yvw!!!!
The harlequin diamond tree and the Advent Calendar were both very creative and awesome!
Thank you so much! 🥰

Great idea!! I have sage green velvet ribbon and contemplated adding it! I may just do that and show you on a reel! 🤔

Thank you so much Marilyn!
Your remake of the purple ornaments was wonderful. I agree, purple is not my go to color for Christmas decor either.
Thanks so much for watching!
Love the wooden tree with the background!!!
Thank you!
Love the ornaments! They look straight out of Pottery Barn! Love the Advent Calendar, too. Great vision! As always.
What a compliment! Thank you!!
All of these are gorgeous. I can't pick a favorite 🌲🌲🌲
Loved them all, but the first Christmas tree was my favorite!💖
Thank you! 🥰
I honestly adored the harlequin stencil background! It was unique and added a whimsical touch 🎄
I’m so glad you liked it!
I like your style
Cool ornaments! I’d upgrade the ribbon though, something with velvet.
Great idea!! I just did that since a number of you suggested and put out a reel about it over on FB!
I love them all! My favorite is the remake of the primitive tree.
Thank you so much!
The angels are precious!💓
Thank you! Kristen has the best ideas!
My favourite was the advent tree drawers. 🌲
Love from Australia 🦘

Love your wooden angels!
Thanks so much! 😊
Love the layered tree🎄
Thank you so much! It sold within a week in my booth!
All are great, but luv'd the Angels 😊
Thank you so much! Kristen has the best ideas!

Great idea for using pallet wood! I may just try that!
@@CreateYourOwnCozy They are very simple to make and rustic.
I like project 1, the tree is great

@@CreateYourOwnCozy what was the white powder on the advent calander .. was that a white wax technique?
@@amandakizer4718 I used white wax from DIY. Added it over sealed DIY paint and then wiped it back.

Do you have liquid patina in your store and can I use it to cured anything I need something for step one for before dark waxing ❤
I have the smaller liquid patina in my store right now. Just sold the last big one. It is a great top coat with a matte finish!
What was the white powder? Is that a white wax technique?
White wax from DIY over sealed paint and then wiped back
Wait where did u get the ornaments u painted over?
