Deine Videos zeigen mir einmal wieder ,was wichtig im Leben ist.
Ruhe und Kreativität. Ja und wir dürfen unsere Kindliche Neugierde niemals verlieren.
Danke für deine Inspiration
I really enjoyed this video. It’s very calming. Loved your walk-through nature. I agree many of us give up on crafts if we’re not immediately creating the perfect object. This takes time and patience to perfect.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Donna ❤️
The chocolate bars are gorgeous. Learning new skills keeps your mind active too. I knit but I also want to learn how to crochet. Keep us updated on how the coasters turn out.
I have been eagerly awaiting your Valentine’s Day video💞
Interesting!!! My husband and I don’t celebrate v-day either because we believe in honouring and valuing our love all year rather than just celebrating it on one day of the year! BUT, it’s always fun to make/bake a special meal with hearts and pinks and reds😍🍓❤
Your journal is so pretty! I always start out with a cute artsy project and slowly my writing starts to look like “chicken scratch”, only eligible to me and no longer cuteee🤣
Aww thank you so much!! ❤️ I'm right there with you with celebrating Valentine's Day--we feel the same way, but we love making a meal or treat just for fun (like chocolate covered strawberries--yum!!) And I'm notorious for having chicken scratch writing, too--it takes SO much effort to try to write more legibly for projects like these, but my daily journal is a mess 😂
Such a calming video again! I have to copy the idea with the chocolate bars. The paper you made for the gifts is adorable! Thank you for your important message at the end of this video! 🫶🏻
As usual, your videos make me feel very relaxed. I’m so happy for u that u started doing crochet 🧶, it’s really very nice and a kind of stress relief, maybe u’ll find it a little bit hard in the beginning but with more practice u gonna crochet without even looking to the stitches , believe me 😊
Have you considered keeping a common place journal? There are many videos on CZcams about it, I started one, and I love it!
I would LOVE to start one!! I usually separate my journals out into different categories but I'm starting to think a commonplace journal makes way more sense-- I'm so happy to hear that you're enjoying yours!
I always call this time of year "fake spring" lol. We had some lovely sunny days here as well and my daffodils have started to peek out, but now we are supposed to get 3 inches of snow tonight!
You're friends are so lucky to get such lovely thoughtful gifts. The chocolate bars look so pretty!
I also love herbalism and studying medicinal plants. Lavender is one of my favorites too. The book you are making is stunning. I am always jealous of your creative skills.
I wish I could help you learn to crochet! I have been crocheting since I was 7 years old and it's one of the few things I can actually do well, lol. I'm sure you will do great and I can't wait to see your coasters.
Thank you for your lovely videos. They always make my day better!
Your videos always feed my spirit so first, thank you for that. The advice to turn to handwritten notes and physical books is something I recommend to students and many state a preference for that. We’re under a misconception that young people only want digital but that is demonstrably not true, and increasingly borne out by neuropsychological studies. Our hobbies and restorative activities are a great way to tap into the benefits of the analog.
Thank you so much for saying that, friend ❤️ And the research you shared is absolutely fascinating, and so validating, too--I've been trying to make a conscious effort to transition from digital to analog wherever I can, and I've been feeling SO much more focused and present ever since (and learning and retaining so much more as a result)!! I tried switching to a digital planner last one year, and I've never felt more disoriented in my life--I am someone who always needs a physical planner beside me! Thank you so much for sharing this valuable knowledge ❤️
What a lovely video.
I am sure that your friends will love their chocolate bars.
I taught myself to crochet using CZcams videos.
Hello 🙋🏻♀️ First time watching your vlog, I must say I love your simplicity and sunshine from your window, trying something new 💯👏🏻 beautiful video, I wish you all the best with new hobbies 💐 Have a great time!
Thank you so much for all of your kind words ❤️ I am so happy you enjoyed the video, friend!! 🤗
I just discovered your channel. I really love your content and look forward to binge watching. I decided to subscribe and have all my notifications on. Thank you dear lady for making these videos. God bless!
What a lovely cozy voiceover and story telling ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much, dear!!!
Lovely vlog! You are such a DELIGHT to hang out with, thank you!
Aww thank you so much, lovely!! 🥰
I’m so happy to have found your channel…such an inspiring and peaceful place to visit! Thank you for sharing your ideas and beautiful images ❤
Aww thank you so much, and welcome!! ❤️ I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying the videos, I can't wait to keep sharing more with you!
Love that you're getting into crochet! I highly recommend getting to know the people at your LYS (local yarn store). There you will find like-minded people who will be happy to help you if you're stuck on a technique or project. I belong to a local crochet/knitting group, and the fellowship and camaraderie is SO uplifting! I've learned so much from others in that group. Good luck, and be sure to show us how your coasters turn out. One thing I would recommend to new students (I used to teach crochet at a craft store) is to save your first attempt, no matter how bad. That way you can look at it out later to see how much you've grown in the craft. :) *happy hugs*
It always feels like a getting a gift when I see a new upload of yours in my subscriptions. It has become my ritual to watch your videos when I'm having my cozy time on the weekend, on the couch with my cup of tea 🍵 it's always such a joy to see what you're up to, be it crafts, cooking, exploring nature... thank you so much for sharing these precious moments as well as a part of you with us!
And also i just want to say Bravo 👏 for making such professionally crafted videos, they are very high quality and just beautiful. You must be putting a lot of effort and time into making them and I genuinely want to thank you for it.💜
Aww thank you SO much, Alessandra!! It's such a joy to create these videos, and it truly means the world to hear how much you appreciate them ❤️ I can't wait to keep sharing them with you--thank you so much for being here 🤗
Your chocolate bar gifts not only look so yummy; such a beautiful wrapping for the bars. Always enjoy the sun during the winter; and to be outside. I crochet, but its very easy projects. Its relaxing. I have had great luck learning to do something new with knit or crochet watching, guess what?? youtube videos. LOL.
I would love to get to the point where I can crochet while I watch CZcams or some of my favorite movies, too!! 😊 That just sounds so cozy and relaxing, I can't wait until I get to that point--it's what motivates me to keep practicing!! Thank you so much for your sweet comment ❤️
Haley, I love you and your videos so much ❤ kind greetings from Germany 🤍🤍🤍
Aww you made my day--thank you so much for your kind words, my dear friend!! Sending you the biggest virtual hug 🤗
Yay crochet ! I crochet since forever and used to make little dinosaurs to sell. Recently, I’ve taken up knitting, which was quite daunting. But, guess what? I love it and it’s quite addictive 😅
The chocolate bars are heaven! I’ll take that idea but for Christmas: I usually give something handmade.
Lovely video as always. Take care and have fun with crochet !
I love crocheting it’s gotta be most rewarding and relaxing hobby. But knitting. Oh boy 😄
@@ItsHarperSmith Now that I'm more into the knitting world, it gets to the point where it is really relaxing. And I love creating more than just scarves, you know? :D
Oh my goodness, your crochet dinosaurs sound absolutely adorable!! I'm so excited for you to continue on your knitting journey, too ❤️ Sending you a big hug my friend!!
Beautiful video and so nice to hear you talk about perfectionism. I relate! :)
Thank you so much--I'm so happy it resonated with you, friend!!
Haley, you can do anything!! Thanks for another lovely video.
You're the best!! Thank you so much, my friend 🥰
What A Lovely Video. Tysm
My inner child is strong and draws me in on a daily basis despite being much older than you 💜. Another beautiful video and those chocolate bars were beautiful. I have a binder I started mary years ago that holds all my herbal allies and it's something you're going to love as you continue adding to it. Many green blessings dear Haley 💚
Your comment made me so happy, Marilyn!! Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️ I'm even more excited to add to my herbalism binder after reading your comment!
yummmm @ the chocolate... Happy Valentine's Day!
Thank you so much, Happy Valentine's Day!!
The chocolate bars are exquisite.❤️
Thank you so much, Holly! ❤️❤️❤️
Crocheting is so relaxing. I use Bella CoCo and Hooked by Robin. They are awesome.
Writing both of those down right now--thank you so much for the recommendations!! I can't wait to learn 😊
We are still under snow cover here, and it snowed again. Today the wind was bitter cold. I am desperate for Spring 🌼🌱
February is a month when I am so waiting for spring ❤ I also have a spring planner and herbs journal - and February is a perfect time to write some important information and notes there 🌱
Love this video. I am thinking of starting a hobby too. Love the plant journal ❤
Yay, so glad you are back on CZcams Haley, I missed your videos! I learnt to crochet using CZcams too - I like Bella Coco’s channel 🧶
Aww thank you so much, Amber ❤️ I'm happy to be uploading more often again, too! Oooh thank you so much for the recommendation, I can't wait to check out her channel!
Hello from the UK ☺. The yellow buttercups are actually Aconites. Too early yet for Buttercups 🌾🌾🌾🌾. Sending love, light & bright blessings xx
Thank you so much for letting me know!! I thought it was too soon for buttercups, now I know they are a different flower! Have a wonderful day, my friend ❤️
Loved your video really made me feel excited for spring
Spring won't be here soon enough! 🌸
ESP, just ordered a beginner crochet set, and my fav, strawberries with chocolate and going to a galantine tea party at rib and chop tomorrow! Loved the video!
Oh my goodness, that makes me so happy!! We are truly kindred spirits ✨ Have a wonderful time at the Galentine's day party!
❤lovely video....full of inspirational suggestions...❤
Thank you so much, Ricarda ❤️
I am so glad I came across this video. Of course I subscribed. ❤ I am starting to study herbalism also and a binder verses a notebook is a great idea. Thank u
Aww thank you so much, and welcome!! ❤️ I am so excited that you’re starting to study herbalism, too-I hope you like using the binder!! It’s been working so well for me so far!
Happy Valentines day to you such as my sister wish u forever in love surrounding you thank youu💕💕💕💕
Wishing you the happiest Valentine's Day, dear friend!! Thank you for being here ❤️
@@MyMoonstoneKitchen awww thank you so much love you more🤗🤗🩷🩷
Ooh I am going to try the chocolate making/custom wrapper for a future gift. I struggle these days with learning new things, particularly boring things, so maybe making an aesthetic journal would help me hmmm. I have been trying to learn to knit. I just can’t get the last part correct. Wish me luck :)
I'm so excited for you to make the chocolate bars, they were so fun and easy to make!! I am right there with you with knitting (and still trying to learn after years now), but I know we'll both get the hang of it eventually--you got this!! 🥰
Arrrhh thr butter cups were gorgeous.what a lovely thing to make for your friends .they looked gorgeous .I brought a dehydrating machine 6 months ago but I don't know how to use it.i brought it from a boot fare it had no instructions so I'm going to look it up and try to dry fruit and veggies for my healthy shakes .thank you I'm makeing coconut ice for my partner for valentines. As he works long hrs marking the roads its my way of saying thank you for all the hard work he dies for us x
My goodness!!!Your videos are a work of art!!What a beautiful thing!I'm delighted!Congratulations!!
It was so nice and warm for a few days and now is going to be cold again. I was so enjoying the idea of spring too. I am sure you had a really lovely time in nature with your walk here. I love buttercups!! How beautiful that you saw some sprouting! Usually I see the crocuses sprouted before anything else.
This chocolate treat looks so delicious!!!
What a great idea of you making your study of plants into a colorful and beautiful notebook! Clever.
Crocheting is tough. I wish you success.
I cannot tell you how many times I've attempted to teach myself how to crochet and failed miserably at it! But your "pep talk" encourages me to try again. I just haven't found the right source that teaches in the style I need (I tried your linked video, but she lost me pretty early on with the "Magic Ring" and "you need to have some crochet experience"). But I'm determined to persevere once again! Thank you for the inspiration!
Aww you're so welcome--I hope we can both learn to crochet this year!! ❤️ I've tried the tutorial a few times since posting this video, and I definitely need to practice with the absolute basics before attempting it again 😂 I'm so excited to finally get to the point where I can do it!
@@MyMoonstoneKitchen ❤️
Loved this❤❤❤
Really want spring 💕💘🌸🌷💐🌺🌧
I learned how to crochet last year, and I've been having so much fun with it. Now I'm making a folklore-inspired booksleeve. It takes a little while to learn, but you can definitely do it! Lovely video, as always! :)
Your folklore-inspired booksleeve sounds like an amazing project, what a fantastic idea!! Thank you so much for your encouragement, and have fun crocheting ❤️
Great reminder to just have fun and try. Fun video
You make such nice videos!
Thank you so much!
It look so nice. I love the cottage core style and what is your favorate singer? mine is Taylor swift but anyway good luck 😊 (sorry if some stuff in the sentence is wrong because I am only 10y and I only know English is because I learn in international school. 😢❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
I love your videos and your ideas! Thank you! What kind of paint did you use? Also, what camera do you use? I LOVE how clear the videos/pics are!
I really enjoyed your video 😊. I hope you don’t mind, but wanted to let you know that the little yellow flowers are Eranthis or Winter Aconites. I’m a gardener in England and we have them here too in January. Very good early plants for bees, so lovely to see them growing wild 💚.
Thank you so much-that is so good to know!! I thought it was too soon for buttercups anyway and I was surprised to see them, now I know why! 😂 I hope to grow them in my future garden someday, they are just so beautiful and like a ray of sunshine this time of year!
😍 beautiful 📷 video once again. I love watching your channel, so relaxing.
That means the world to me, thank you so much, friend!!
Hi!:) I have been looking for the first signs of Spring as well. Not many here but I think soon it will change. I love your chocolate bars. Such a thoughtful gift! I am sure your notes about herbs will look stunning when finished. I enjoy crotcheting too. I am not good at it but the first thing I made was a hat for my niece. It's good to listen to your inner child:). Have a good day/evening!
Btw, I recommend crotcheting a flower bookmark:)
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, my friend!! And what an amazing idea to crochet a flower bookmark--I'm sooo excited to learn more so I can make one!! Have a wonderful day ❤️
what a cozy vlog! :) this was such a nice part of my day calming down and watching this video. i also loved how beautiful the chocolate turned out to be Ps. How cold it is out there? Here in north europe -26C (-14F), too cold. Waiting for spring
Aww thank you so much, my friend!! ❤️ Oh my goodness, it is SO cold where you live!! It was 55F (13C) when I filmed this video, it felt like a spring day! I hope I can send some of this warmer weather your way 🥰
@@MyMoonstoneKitchen I can't wait for spring! :') I'm lucky I get to live the spring weather through your vlogs already :')
Loved it! I enjoyed watching it! Can you tell me where did you get the beautiful floral tea kettle? ☺️
Absolutely! The kettle is from Phoebe Wahl--here is the link: phoebewahl.shop/products/meadow-kettle
Oh my goodness, I love your materia medica. My herbal notebook is not very creative, yours has inspired me to add a little creativity to mine. Could you link the binder and pages that you use? ❤
Aww you are too kind--thank you so much!! Just linked the binder and pages in the video description--so excited for you to have fun with yours, too! ❤️
Gorgeous!! Where are you located?!
I love God’s creation! 🥰
I didn’t know I could put milk in my hibiscus tea?
