It’s actually Facebook as well and it’s because they don’t gaf about anything/ they just wanna make money it’s not just about ads it’s about anything having to do with them
Ahhh, the whole “sold out, but randomly opened a secret stash to *some* visitors, and you’re one” thing… ehhhh, NO! SCAM! But the other products were cute ☺️
Turns out no scam. It just arrived a bit ago and she included it in a video. It’s super cute. If it wasn’t so expensive I’d get one. We love our birds.
If y’all don’t know - before you purchase a candle, smell the lid (NOT the candle) and that will be the strength of the smell of the candle while it burns. I believe it is called a “cold throw”. So, strong lid smell = strong “hot throw”, not a strong lid smell = bland candle when burning! Hope this helps :)
@@zahavashaw2083 not in my experience. I’m inclined to think that a cork, wood, something porous would of course absorb more so than just a plastic/stainless lid but nonetheless, it still works! Great question!!!
I was thinking a similar thing. She could read the labels on things in her home, and I'd be there, with a smile. I have an alarm set to go off at 11:55am on Sundays. That gives me time to pee, and settle in for my favourite video of the week. A proud member of the "I'm An Odd Shape" fan club!
Hey Mia! I'm a bit late but if you still haven't gotten your bird buddy yet and you bought it using a credit card, you might try to contact your credit card company to dispute the charge/explain the situation - sometimes they'll give you back your money and then go after the company themselves
mia next time you use the clay if it cracks like that once dry: take some of the leftover clay and mix it with water to make kind of a paste and use that to fill in the cracks just make sure it isnt too liquidy or too thick and it should work perfectly once smoothed out! also using a wet sponge and misting clay with a spray bottle helps get things smoother as long as its not overly wet
Bird buddy is a scam. I checked a thread on Reddit and there were so many people who said they were scammed, no refund at all, no reply nothing. there were couple people who received it, but those accounts were very scammy. Anyway I got one for my grams on aliexpress & it cane in 4 weeks paid $80 and worth it. Lol
@@aubreyy__15 Yes! I hate it when this happens to Mia. I get more mad than she does. lol It doesn't seem to bother her though. I wonder how many people complained to bird buddy on her behalf!
PLEASE HEAR ME OUT. You and Drew Gooden both buy the first five adds you see but ship it too the other person as a surprise. He makes these all the time and I know it would be hilarious since both of you are so specifically targeted. You would both get completely different adds. But I loved this Mia!!
Lots of people are saying the birdbuddy feeders are a scam, some ordered one a year ago and never got anything but an email saying production is delayed. Apparently it's a kickstarter company that got a couple million dollars for their idea but hasn't gotten to production yet
Woww..1 year? If they hv production issue, they should've stop advertise it and solve the situation first.. pretty sure they hv making a lot of money from scamming people these couple years
Can I just say? Mia and I have very different styles of both clothing and home decor, but I really appreciate the fact that she is true to herself, has unique ideas that one does not see online and her overall personality really comes through in her dresses and her house interior. Something not seen before and truly personal.
Literally though 🤣 As someone who worked at a nursery, a garden center and some other smaller plant shops... how does she think plants get from a nursery to a big box store or other plant stores 😆 made me chuckle for sure lolol
@@michaelOliver-oc6ceI walked into the post office recently and a guy was walking out with his brand new hive of honeybees. Never encountered something like that before it was kinda interesting. Chatted with him for a bit about it.
Can we just appreciate HER TOP IN THIS VIDEO? Like OMG I’ve been so in love with Mia’s clothing these past few videos, not that I wasn’t before of course! Love you Mia!! 💕
The sculpting package is so cute?? Such a nice idea to have everything you need ready to go! I love it! Edit: and the plants oh my goddd!!! They got shipped so safe and good wth, I was not expecting that!
The sculpting set is so easy to just make for yourself! I buy air drying clay and glaze from either Amazon or a craft store and it's sooo much cheaper and using paint and stuff I already have is wayy better for the environment, still nice to get a set as a gift though
@@siannn same! I honestly thought it was ceramic clay stuff bc considering the price, but I was so surprised that it was just air-dry clay 😅 the packaging was very cute tho and it is quite convenient!!
I’ve had my snake plant for 2 years and when we moved we forgot about her in a random room and she went without water for MONTHS and she’s 100% fine. Still alive and still beautiful!
I'm so glad you got an ad for local, small business candles! I'm a big advocate for scented products by small businesses because on the whole they use much less chemicals and they hold so much more passion in both concepts and execution! Supporting them helps both body and soul :) I've found a lot of local candles on both Instagram and Etsy, and have gotten into perfumes as well. Once I took the leap to independent makers I quickly realized I couldn't go back to the mass market stuff, you can really smell the difference! Edit: I like the candle containers too, they look like they can be recycled easily and safely!
@@Madiannereid They say on their website that they are currently still a small business. Being in major department stores doesn't necessarily mean they're a large company or corporation, it can just be well executed and proactive wholesaling! Goals honestly
Little tip for all zit stickers: they are meant for pimples that have come to a head. If you put them on one that is still under the skin, you won't see much difference. But they work wonders on whitehead pimples. My routine is zapzit cream once it appears twice a day until it comes to a head, then sticker once to twice a day until gone. Cuts the lifespan in half.
Hi! Amateur sculpteur here. There's many reasons why he bowl cracked and was uneven. When using clay it is better to not have many little pieces pressed together because it creates the possibility of missing some areas and have air in between layers. You should also do cross hashes on both side of the pieces you want to stick and add slip (slip is basically watered down clay, everyone has a different preferance in consistency, but I would go around yogurt consistence.)by doing that you are sealing the pieces of clay. And it would still be considered a weak point. You indeed need water while working clay because it dries pretty fast and having water also helps to smooth out the surface as mentioned above. Even if you use slip or add water you can fire them, but we need to keep in mind that weak points will become very obvious and the size and colour of the clay will change too it usually shrinks as the water in the clay evaporates.
It’s so funny to me that other people often equate the after rain smell as worms and I’ve always loved the smell because it smells fresh and of spring time. 😂
Mia, they do make nesting boxes that affix to your window, and the side against your window can be seen through. This way you can watch the birds build their nest, lay their eggs, those eggs hatch, and the birds raise their young. I hope today finds you well, and please give Skippy a scritch on the head from me, but not my cat Chewie, as she'd go for blood, lol. 💛 from Winnipeg!
@@livingg2331 Idk if you’re a Brit but it made me laugh because I just thought of the chip shop and how people say chippy. And now that I think about it Bricky for brick layers too 😂.
The bird house thing looked so much like a scam... If a website tells you that you "won" and have to buy a 200$ thing fast or the win will expire... girl the chances of it being a scam are 99.99999999999% 😂
I’ve been getting ads from one of those companies that build you a house from scratch recently. Probably because I recently moved so my Google searches were all about moving. When Mia said no price limit her getting an ad for a house or something else stupidly expensive was all I could think about 😂
I’m struggling through a pretty severe depression right now, and seeing Mia come out with a new video just made this day a little better than yesterday ❤️
✨💖✨Please know that there are others who have struggled with depression, and that you are not alone. It sounds like yesterday was really tough. My heart goes out to you. Now, I wouldn’t be a caring, busybody ol’ lady if I didn’t remind you that if it gets so bad, and you have thoughts of hurting yourself or suicide there is help. There are national hotlines with people trained to help. You don’t have to go through this alone. You are not alone. Sending thoughts your way.
Thankyou mia for these videos . They have been kept me going through this toughest time of my life. I know there are many coming here to your channel to check if there is any new videos just to keep them away from all the things that pull them down . Im really thankful for you and your videos. Love you mia 🥰 be happy as always and stay blessed ❣️
@@HakunaMatata_1 that's so sweet of you 🥰 i wholeheartedly accept the hug ☺️and ur support . Wish you all good things in life and keep being this optimistic , loving person that you are 🤗
Was looking at reviews of the my bird buddy website, a lot of people never received their purchases from the website. Lots of people saying it's a scam. I had a look as I was curious about it after you mentioned about waiting for months. I hope you'll get your money back if you don't receive your bird house. Love your vlogs Mia 🦋 ✨ 🌟 🌻 Ps also saw read they cancel peoples orders without informing them.
With pimple patches they don’t usually stick if you have any face product on (including moisturizer) and usually you have to poke/open the pimple to allow the patch to soak up the insides onto the patch 💕
Omg have always said that i can't enjoy rain smell because i think it smells like worms. Never has anyone agreed or understood me. This made my day haha. 🤣
Same for me as well. When I was a kid I remember that after a rainstorm there would be earthworms all over the driveway and road. After that I always associated the smell of rain to smell like worms. Anybody that I would bring this up to would look at me like I was crazy. The only time that I think rain smells good and not like worms is right before it rains like when the storm is just starting to blow in, but after everything is wet it smells like worms to me😂 Even though I've never picked up and sniffed a worm before. I also was eating Ramen noodles as a ki'd after a rainstorm and I walked outside bowl in hand to see all the earthworms crawling about. I looked down at my noodles and that was it, I had to toss them in the trash. To this day as a 38 yr old adult I cannot eat Ramen because after the first few bites I think of worms and gross myself out. I've never been able to get passed it. It's weird how our child brains associate different things to other things and it stays with us forever. It's also crazy how some of us have the same weird associations like rain smelling like worms😂
There’s a word for that smell, it’s “petrochor”. It’s a real word and for some info: “Humans aren't the only ones to appreciate the earthy aroma after an April rain shower. That smell-known as petrichor-stems from microscopic streptomycete bacteria in the soil that produce a compound called geosmin, The Times reports.”.
Rubber tree's are very resilient from my experience as long as you take care of them well, they also get big and love to take over an entire space if you let them (if you don't trim them at all). They are fun tree's and I love them. Also, a side note don't let dogs eat them, it's definitely bad for them.
Hey Mia! Just wanted to let you know that it would be a good idea to put your plants in a pot that has drainage holes! You could use a nursery pot, and then just pop that whole thing into your nicer pot after you've watered it. Never plant plants in pots without drainage holes! It's a recipe for root rot, esp for the ficus!
Trees? I’ve seen volunteers planting “trees” and it should be clarified as they are planting tree seedlings most of which promptly die. Sounds good but not!
I would love that sculpting kit. Definitely putting on my wishlist. I usually ignore Instagram ads cuz I can't afford anything but that's cool and comes with a lot of clay. Worth the price of it. Second fave is the candles. I don't have a lot of room for them but I love the smell. I can't burn them because of my cats but I can just sniff them whenever
Hate to tell you this but you're not getting your bird feeder. And you can't get your money back now since it's been way too long to get it back through your credit card company.
Def love the vid bc it’s seeing an honest reviewer of those social media ads. I see a lot and always tempted but too worried that they could be scams. Watching this really helps bring to light which ads are legit and which are fishy.
"I'd never thought of shipping plants" I know she's talking about like in a personal "ship to your house" way, but all i could think was like "How do you think they get to the store?" {context - I work at a greenhouse, we get huge boxes of houseplants and carts shrink wrapped with plastic for the outside plants shipped to us every week}
I think this is my favourite video of this month no this year. No promises your weddings coming up I'm sure they are gonna beat this video. You've been so thorough girl just love you.
Check the reviews for the bird feeder. I love the plants, they are doing so well. The sculpture kit was well made. Your cup could've gone twice the height easily. See if the site has other color paints and compare them to craft acrylics. There may be other ingredients that make them better suited to pottery. I've seen special "stone" paints. How are you doing with the candles?
The pottery looks so much fun! I wish there was more Colors! You can fill in the cracks even after it dry, u can still fix it! All u gotta do is mix water with a little bits of clay and make into muddy clay! And then u just fill in the cracks and let it dry again! The plants also omg I love them I might consider getting some 🥰🥰🥰
Love ur channel..even though ur young..all the money u spend and donate it..ur awesome..I also enjoy ur mom's laugh..I can tell u have a close relationship..God bless ya"ll..
The star pimple things work so well!! If I have a big pimple I wear them over night, depending how big it is, could be 2-3 days, and they go down so much!! I want the SpongeBob ones though. I grew up with that show, so cool to see that had a different addition!!
@@heyyycarissa it was always on fanjoy but i guess she finally took it down because it’s gone now. I got the sweatpants she sold. They were cute. So I’m guessing she’s going to come out with new stuff eventually
Hey Mia, I love bergamot too! In fact I have two “bee balm” bergamot plants and love being able to walk out side and have it smell like a delicious cup of earl grey tea. I’m not sure how well they would do where you are in Canada but they grow here in upper Indiana with minimal help.
Yes yes yes to buying all the things from all the platforms, such a fun idea, loved the things that you got, shame about the scam. Love your channel 💘 Jo UK x
Jade plants can last YEARS & get REALLY big. I got one small like that 4 a housewarming gift & I eventually replanted it outside in my flowerbed & when I moved out 13 years later it was a huge bush! And it takes very little care.
Just some advice on the plants - they generally do better if you keep them in plastic pots and don't plant them directly into the decorative pot! Especially the crassula (or any plant that doesn't require a lot of water) really doesn't like to have moisture sitting at the bottom of the pot and keeping them in the plastic pots helps the water drain better. Repotting them again into plastic pots and putting those in the decorative ones might be something to consider if you want to help them stay as healthy as they are now :)
Just saw your description, that you donated to World Vision for each video. Now I have to watch all your August videos! Thanks for your generous heart Mia, such a worthy cause.
Mia, bird buddy's website says, "Bird Buddy is currently still in development, which is why it will take a little longer for the orders to arrive than it would if we were fully launched already. Existing pre-orders are set to be fulfilled in 2022, while newly placed pre-orders are set to ship in 2023"
It's a scam site. I'm finding reviews where people ordered one as a Christmas present, had a delivery date pushed back til March then the company cancels the order without a refund.
Awe yay I needed this video. Having a hard time with no appetite due to the side effects of a new medication and I need to get dinner down. What’s better than eating soup and watching Mia?!
I love the candles; the containers look like little paint buckets…you know, without the handle. Edit My favorite episodes of SpongeBob are all of the episodes with Pearl in them. I love Pearl.
I am so with you on toxic candles. I came to the same conclusion a few years ago. I am very prone to headaches, so if any candles are going to be got they will need to be clean. I love the plants you got, that zig zag plant is so cool. I may need to give them a try. Thinking I need more plants in the house to clean the air. Excited to see if the bird house works, hope it showed up. If you have the mic app turned on on your phone, the apps will pick up your conversation and show you items you mention. ( this includes world events in the news) I have turned off my mic, cause that is too big brother for me.
Even though everything went to pottery when Mia's favorite pottery item was dropped and broken, there was a light at the end of the tunnel when Mia bought those non-toxic candles.
As an avid gardener, I order tons of fun living plants. From fruit trees, roses, and actual vegetables! You should check out Lettuce Grow for veg and Greenstalk for a fabulous growing space saver!
