This is my first time seeing you after catching you on my tv on you tube! I so enjoyed you that I rewatched you so I could subscribe! I thought I liked the bird in the original state until you finished it! Wow! It is gorgeous! The second one is as pretty as the first! Love the bee,but the canisters take the cake. So happy I found you! Thanks for sharing! I’m also having a hard time getting motivated. My husband of almost fifty years passed away in October and I I want to do so much and go through it in my head, but can’t get much done. I hope you get the mo-jo going and get motivated again because I truly enjoyed this one. God Bless You!
I am so glad you are here Brenda! I am so sorry about the loss of your husband!! I bet you go through so many emotions and I just hope you give yourself some grace! Stop listening to what you “should” be doing and listen to what you need each day! My prayer is that creativity will come back and be an amazing therapy for you! 🥰
Farm fresh is my favorite color. I think a lot of what people are feeling is atmospheric the way the moon lines with the atmosphere I know it sounds crazy but if we all kept a journal on how we’re feeling during certain moons and how things line up it actually affects us ☺️💕
You NAILED IT on all of these projects, Heather!!! I wish my lack of motivation would end up like this. My favorite item is the bird on the music - probably because I play the piano. Painting it then restamping it made it extra special. 🥰
Heather I have watched you since you started. I always look forward to your videos. You and Sonnet are in my top list of creators. Thank you for the content I know it is a lot of work 🥰
I loved the blue bird! To try and get motivation and inspiration I watch your videos! We are similar in so many ways, it's like I'm living vicariously through you! Thanks.
I love the stamping over paint technique. And of course you have my heart with the canisters. I love the farm fresh and white wax. Good for you to splurge on yourself. I know how we mommas are. We end up spending it on the kids for something they need. I love the bird stamp!!! Thanks for the sweet Henry fix. Blessings to you and the family. Thanks Heather ❤❤🐾🐾🐾🐶
Loved the idea of painting over the stamp and then reapplying the stamp again, it looked so gorgeous! Loved all your projects! My ultimate favorite was the canisters too. Big thumbs up👍
Hi Heather, I love all your projects ❤️😁, the first on, omg is stunning I love the paint then stamp and paint. I will have to try that. And the stamps, they are beautiful and so detailed gorgeous 😍. I was the same way the year before I turned fifty, but I'm here to tell you it goes so fast and now I'm less than a year away from 60.... I can't believe it and I'm falling apart, so just try not to think about it and enjoy life. God bless
Your projects look fabulous. I love the technique you used with the stamps. I can’t wait to try that stamping a flower. You always do a great job. Thanks for sharing your creativity!!!
Hi Heather! The stamped bird you painted teal and then restamped looks beautiful! Also, I'm usually not a bee-motif type, but I surprised myself by really admiring the bee stamp on the yellow plate.
Hi Heather, all your thrift flips are beautiful and I like how you stamped the bird, painted it white then stamped it again with dark ink. That is a cool technique that I'll try. Especially love the mushroom cannisters; I recently used a small covered jar and used similar paint with the white wax and love how it turned out. Keep sharing, you're teaching us newbies!! 😀😀
WOW! Great projects! Thank you for the idea to restamp on top of painted stamps. I love this process. Also, I didn;t think I would love the mushrooms/toadstools mould (having lived through the 70s) but your use of it has turned me around... what's old is new, as they say.
Happy belated birthday! I wish I were 47 again! My birthday was Feb 2 and I turned 55. It is hard to grasp I am now considered a senior citizen! I love this new release. I am waiting for my return from the gov to get most of them if not all of them. If I have to chose a favorite, it would be the farm fresh bird. Love the technique of stamping then painting and finishing with the stamp over it. Great projects and good job with getting motivated this week 😊 I have issues with motivation too. Sometimes retail therapy helps😉 and sometimes I just start on something small and put some music on and that seems to pull me out of it.
I liked the other projects, but my favorite was the first teal bird in the frame!❤ Also, love the bee! I'm not super crazy about the mushrooms yet, they feel a little unfinished. Waxing would have been my preference, but I think they might also need another element to add dimension and interest. IDK. They will probably all sell fast, no matter! Great job.
We must have had the same blah day because i went out Wednesday and bought some of those amazing molds and stamps! Love the pop of color you put on the birds! Love the mushrooms and Bee on the plates! Beautiful ! Thanks for sharing! Happy belated Birthday!!
Happy Belated Birthday Heather! 🎂. I got both of these IOD products as well (and more) and have been playing with them. I love how you painted birds then re stamped them.
I just had a birthday as well. Only one year away from 50 and I have needed a little grace. Give yourself some too. Loved the stamp over paint technique you have done. I haven't tried it yet, but it's definitely on the to do list!
Hello Heather. My fav is the teal bird. I can't wait to get my order. I watch videos to get motivated and find new techniques to learn then when I get started i just keep going.
I love the color on the stamps. It makes them pop. And you gave me a good idea. I don’t have the stamps, but I can paint a watercolor on a music sheet. Thanks.
Thank you for showing yet another brilliant idea of stamping/painting and re-stamping. The mushroom canisters are cute, just not my thing. Hope you are well. I have gotten into a funk a few times. This weekend I worked on reorganizing my craft room. This gave me a fresh new start and helped motivate me.
Guess what. . .I hate mushroom motifs. BUT those three canister with the mushrooms was my favorite and I would buy the set. WONDERFUL job Heather! Also I love your background music it is so soft and gentle, kind to the ears.
Aawe... Happy Birthday sweet lady 😂🎉❤ Hey listen, I just turned 72! You are going to be fine🎉😂❤ I like the color with the stamps. You and Debbie are my inspiration.Go Girl 😅
Heather, dear, try 3 years away from 80!!!! I still enjoy crafting, though. I found out about mushrooms when I saw Brandy make a woodland thingie and realized I had the perfect woodland piece to emulate her, so I went to Amazon! That would be a NO! Girl,those bird pictures are pure genius. I have been saving my birthday money for a trip to Harbor Freight, but, now I’m thinking about some IOD things! Hard decision! Like usual, I love everything you did today,but my favorite is the bird pictures. I DO have a set of 4 white canisters in my stash, yours might influence my saved money! Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing
I thought the music paper behind the stamp, was a great idea,very clever, i have just seen your youtube, i enjoyed what you did, thank you. Pamela hall
Hi Heather, if you have birthday money you can spend it anyway you want. I loved all your projects but my favorite was the bird stamped on the music sheet. I love birds on anything. But, my most favorite is Henry give him some doggie love. 🐾🐾🐶❤️
Retail Therapy: if it gets you out of a funk, why not?! 😊 it will pay off dividends you getting the new IOD bc you’ll sell those items you made in your booth! 🎉 I loved all your projects this week, you have a great hand for painting and waxing! My two favorites were the bird frame w the blue, as you were painting over it (brave!!) I was hoping you would stamp over it w the black, and you did!! Great minds think alike haha 🎉 And I also loved the bee 🐝 stamp, went perfectly w the yellow plate! But all pieces were great. Since you asked about the mushrooms, I probably would add some white wax just to highlight the details and make mushrooms more dimensional. Ok the work you did on the hutch, again you are a master at painting and waxing. As you were talking I’m seeing the highlights and the lowlights of the hutch…it looks stunning! ❤
Great idea painting then re stamping,I’m waiting for my Toadstool mold to come. The canisters look great!!! I think retail therapy is good if you need some new inspiration or new items from thrift stores to flip always inspire,but sometimes I have to just walk away from the crafting if I’m in a funk, or do a different craft like sewing.
Looks good. I have a pile of pottery barn frames I need to put in my booth. You have inspired me to do a bird stamp in side. I was in a funk this week too. I think it is the weather!
Some of the new line was a bit intimidating but as I watch you and others share, I’m inspired to try some of the new items! Thanks for the inspiration!
I like the color💖. I'm on the fence with the white bird, but I am loving the bee. Loving the mushrooms! Look good unwaxed, but I would like to see it waxed. ( I have been a fan of mushrooms since the seventies. Happy Birthday !!!🎂💐
I’m in love with EVERYTHING this week! I can’t wait to get my hands on these new releases. I’m also obsessed with how you added paint and re-stamped over the images 😍❤️😍❤️😍❤️😍❤️
Hi, loved the green bird...the white one I find a little to stark. Using a cream or pale brown may have worked better. Altogether an amazing job as always..keep up the great work
