Fun stuff from Santa Fe, NM....some of it in German for my family in Germany.....my fantastic wildlife experiences here in the prairie of the still Wild, Wild West.
My hometown in Germany is Bad Kissingen.
I hope you enjoy my love and respect for all things nature!
Wow!! You just popped on my feed, and I have to say you are so clear and to the point! Thank you! As a beader, I've been curious about paper bead making, very cool video!
WELL!! I got playing, it was fun to do this. My husband came over to meand saw what I was doing(he usually doesn't say much or even come see what I'm doing). But he said to me, why don't you stand up and blow straight down on it and it would go out in all directions. I DID! And I loved that out come too. And I did some tiny circles too among the larger ones. 😆 I want to try using some metallic watercolors for sparkle.. THANKS AGAIN...❤
These pieces are simply stunning! Thank you for sharing yourcreativity and talent. All of your necklaces are so beautiful....I'll bet its is sometimes a challenge picking ONE for each outfit! 😊 The caterpillar bracelets are right up my alley! All jingle-jangle-y! Love them! Thanks for sharing!
I knew it was you before I even actually looked at the TV. I pressed on the video cuz I saw the water color painting, I was doing something else, but when I heard the necklace hit the table from you tossing it down, I knew who it was. Lol. That's cracks me up.😂❤
I LOVE YOUR MANURISM ! Is that the correct word ? Hell I don't know, but I just love the way you speak, so down to earth. Not a people pleaser ! Not a follower, just all you. So cool. Now, I LOVE YOUR JEWELRY ! It's very well done , great colors !. Only one simple question that I must ask, what weight of water color paper. Awhahahaaa I pretty sure may know that. I had ta ask. Love the black one most, oh but also the yellow, oh heck just all of them.❤❤ 😂
Oh boy! Your comment just made me laugh so hard! Thank you for that. I am German, I tend to be straight to the point. I can't stand RU-vid videos where people go on and on and on and all I want to see is how they're going to make something. So, I'm happy you liked the way I talked. Honestly, I don't care if I get likes or subscriptions, I do this for my own fun and people can either like it or not. Your comment is wonderful. Anyway, my watercolor paper, I'm looking at it right now and I'm going to read to you what it says, it says 117 lb 250 g/m... I have no clue what that means. Thanks again for your wonderful comment, it made my day! 💜
Oh my your beads are so lovely! I’m always painting watercolor but now want to roll some beads. You’ve inspired me. What do you string the finished necklace on? A wire? Anyway, your work is gorgeous thank you so much.
@@SantaFeLady Thank you so much! I rolled a watercolor bead today and OMG! It’s gorgeous. May I ask how well do they keep after glazing? Do you notice any fading over time? Just curious because I have tons of papers.
I'm so happy you like it! Yes, it makes so much more sense than other methods I've seen, one bead with one toothpick at a time. I just didn't have time for that. This method has always worked well for me. I wish you much success and beautiful paper beads! 💜
I'm obsessed with Costco boxes! I actually hoard them😂! I actually hoard all boxes but I have a particular soft spot for these.🥰 Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing!😊❤
I'm really excited to try paper beads with watercolor paper. I have a TON of it lol. I buy it when it's on sale and don't really paint much anymore. Thanks for sharing!😊❤
I love watching the humming birds & with the beautiful sunset is spectacular! We just returned from NM. My husband's uncle passed & the funeral & burial was in the Veterans Cemetery in Santa Fe. We have always enjoyed visiting him & seeing the beautiful landscape there.
Great video.. best one I've seen on youtube... thank u for sharing yr tips. Im excited to start making paper beads. We did this when we were kids & im a jewelry maker & im gonna start a line of paper beads jewelry to sell in my shop.. im a subscriber now!!
Your pieces are stunning, well done, they look so varied and pretty. I love how you say "This is what I made, don't ask me any questions, I just make it, go and look at other videos if you want to learn more" That made me laugh! I don't think I have heard any other RU-vid creator be so direct. :)
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for your sweet comment! I'm glad I made you laugh and you in turn, made me laugh. Well, I am German to the core and I am very direct. Sometimes, when you post things online, people will ask so many questions that it is absolutely exhausting to answer everything. I'm glad you liked my video and thank you for commenting. ❤️❤️❤️
I am a toothpicker (for shame..but i didn't know any better!). Tomorrow morning I will be doing your method because its so much faster Love your direct instructions, with no extra chitter chatter. best wishes from Scotland, UK
@@SantaFeLady Great to hear that your husband enjoyed his trip to Scotland!. It is a lovely country indeed. I haven't been to Santa Fe, but I know of it, and consider it to be quite a creative place. I follow an artist called Kelly Moore who lives there - bit of a wild guy but makes vibrant art. Anyway, my box of beads is strung up and dripping happily. Sure beats the toothpicker method! I noted your amendment in this video with regard to leaving them for quite some hours before the second layer, so I shall occupy myself with painting papers. Have a wonderful day! :)
I like how fast you go. My favorite part was when you said, "If you're a crafter you already know..." So many other tutorials are too long and tedious. Thank you for short and to the point.
