Bubble June Bullet Journal
Let's paint some bubbles for the month of June! They sing summer and kids love to blow bubbles when the school ends (they'd love that in other times as well but moms are sometimes not so keen on wet children in the winter;)) so summer and bubbles go hand in hand...
Enjoy and make a wish!

Making a special gift - polymer clay pendant necklace
Просмотров 467 месяцев назад
The best thing about being a crafter is that you get to make very special gifts for the people in your life. It can be silly or weird or deeply personal, have a special meaning that only the two of you know... Whatever it is - it is worth it - it doesn't take that much of time but it creates something that is very hard to describe in words but can be so very much felt when the recipient gets th...

Bullet Journal Summer Theme - August Planning
Beautiful 😍 thanks for sharing.
Love it. Can you send me the pattern? Ty
Too much bla bla at the beginning and the main part, drawing and painting is just in a rush.
This kind of sketchbooks give me courage to make art , so thank you ❤
You look so sweet heart and lovely lady❤
You are so sweet :)
I love your drawings and you personally. Thank you
I love your drawings!!
What a lovely surprise, it has inspired me
Bubbles, perfect for summer!! I love blowing bubbles on a windy day!!
great idea!
Glad you like it! I can't for the life of me make myself paint swatches but this I can do:)
Another lovely video of yours, im so happy 💕 Right now i am studying so hard for a very important exam, and while the stress and fear of failing makes me so anxious, watching your videos at the end of the day always makes me more relaxed 💕 You are great
That was so nice to read, it really made me swoon! I'm so happy if these little videos can help someone in any tiny little way. I kept and still keep my fingers crossed for you that your exam goes/went great! It's proven that we study better when we sleep better and we sleep better when we can relax after studying - so if this helps I am more than happy:). Thank you so much for this comment!
@@veryartyfairy Well, i did the exam a few days ago and it went great!! So thank you very much for your videos, i know it maybe sounds strange, but in those weeks full of stress they have been like a "safe space" for me, where i could relax myself ☺️ + The fact that you are always with a smile on your face and your kind voice on your videos is strangely comforting to me in ways i can't explain. So i am super glad i found your channel, you are such a sunshine 💕
So cool 😍 thank you for sharing.
Thank you too! I really love to see the beauty in ordinary things - it makes the whole world magical - even the grey winter forest:). Of course, now the nature is magical in any eyes with all the colours!
❤🎉😊
Thank you - nature journaling is such a non-pretentious form of art - no expectations, everything is changing all the time so you can't exactly expect anything... but it's so rewarding - sketching in nature is so relaxing...
I also am in Carol's 2024 class. I am going to play with blues today using this technique.
Really? That's great, I hope to see you on Carla's zoom:) She is a great teacher - fun and very very encouraging!
Just what a sketchbook should be!
Hihi, full of mistakes but full, right?:) I agree, a lot of mistakes is still better than a blank sketchbook!
So simple and so very pretty I've got to try that
Have fun! It's really easy and as you can see takes literally a few minutes - this video is in real time for the most part. By the way - do you prefer sped up videos or real time?
V@@veryartyfairy I like real time... I have actually tried this already and have it hanging up on my wall I'm going to do another one and add some more leaves and flowers it was very fun and easy thank you so much for sharing I'm glad I found your channel I subscribed❤
Thanks for another cute inspiration! I love watching you paint, and I don't mind a little shaking 🙂 Fingers crossed and best of luck for you!!
Thanks so much! 😊I'll need it no matter how things work out in the end. I'm so glad you don't mind the mistakes (in video and in my painting) - I'd like to make things nice but there's a balance between quality and quantity that I never know how to straddle:D.
Ladybug is more common in Canada and the United States and ladybird in the United Kingdom. Your spreads brought me joy. Hvala.
Thank you so much for the clarification - I was always wondering about that! Thank you for the comment / hvala za prijazne besede :)
It's ladybugs! Love your ladybug drawings and all the leaves. I didn't notice the shaking all that much. It happens!!
Thank you - I guess it is ladybugs over the seas as people have informed me - that's probably why our kids learn ladybird - because here we are taught UK English but I never know the difference:D. I'm really glad the shaking was not too distracting - I'd like to make it nice but sometimes I have a very limited amount of time to make something and I have to improvise a bit;). Thank you so much for understanding!
❤❤❤
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it! By the way: we have a mineral water that has logo with three hearts that looks exactly like this! Everybody here drinks it and it's supposed to be very healthy for you:).
That is simple and looks easy enough that I could do it!! Great idea and turned out so cute!!
Thank you! 😊 It really is so simple as it looks! Try it out - it's like being in kindergarten again with all the freedom and joy and no judgment "how this is going to look" - and it still looks cute in the end (if you look from far enough :D). I just made a bullet journal with another very simple theme - ladybugs! They are also so easy to draw and so much fun with their bright colour!
Lovely video, thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks for watching! I'm so happy that this video of all got so many people because nature journaling is so rewarding - you can't go wrong - it doesn't need to be art:) and you get to enjoy nature - it's the best! Thank you so much for your comment, it really makes my day!
Can you put oil and a wick in this?
I haven't tried it yet but if it's just clay on the inside I think it could work. If it's painted from the inside that could burn or react with the paint. Maybe try to dab some paint on a tiny piece of clay and put it in an oil lamp if you have one to test it first before you ruin your little masterpiece?
I literally just got home with some twigs to paint for the first time ever. Very timely that this popped up. I love what you did!
Awww, that just melted my heart! I'm so happy if this little ideas find their way into someone else's home and maybe make someone smile:). I enjoy nature so much and would so like to share that love - I'm so happy you help me do that:) And so grateful for your encouragement - that is so sweet!
Painting with a small branch, and you did it so well!! I love your flowers!!
Thank you so much 😀 I felt like I did a terrible job to be honest but nevertheless, I am determined that I will post stuff that is far from perfect:) It's so reassuring to see comments like this - that people actually don't mind my wonky lines and messed up proportions but see that little thing behind everything - love for nature:). I didn't know it would show through all my mistakes :D.-
I love your presentation.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I've always been a bit quirky, I talk too much and I laugh too loud but if you can get past that there can be something on the other side sometimes :D.
I’m also trying to give jobs to my sketchbooks as well… I have a messy one that I like to just play with colour or write notes to myself but others that have a theme! :) got myself a couple of 12x12 art creation sketchbooks to give it a go! 😊
That's a great idea! I love the themed sketchbooks! And the 12x12 - that's a real commitment, kudos to you! I'm still in the small format until I get my life back on track with the new job. But I can't wait to get some sort of a routine (which is funny since I organize my life in a way that I have no routine :D) - well, I just want more time for art, actually. We'll get there, right?! :) Enjoy your sketchbooks, I'm very impressed!
@@veryartyfairy ups sorry, 12x12 cm XD don’t know in inches. Are you able to journal the eclipse? Wish I could see it!
Just discovered your channel and I’m in love! ❤ im trying to get back into my nature journaling practice
You made me so happy, thank you so much! I really enjoy art and sharing ideas but I don't enjoy editing that much so your encouragement is very very helpful in keeping me motivated to do more:). There are so many simple ideas floating around my head and doing art can be so much fun - I'm sure you will never regret getting back to it. PS: there's another nature journaling video about flowers waiting for you:). Because spring is in the air:). Thank you again!
This is such a great idea! I need to do it! I have been struggling to identify trees
You can do it! It seems complicated at first but you learn the basics really fast! Give it a go - it's fun and you learn something (let's call it investment/ prevention against dementia :D)
I really enjoyed this video/tutorial. Thank you so very much for all you do. 😊 I can’t wait to give this a try,
Have fun! I'm so happy you enjoyed it:). A new one on flowers is coming up as I type this:). I hope you get some ideas from that one as well (I drew with a twig:) - I got the idea while making this video but haven't gotten until now). Thank you so much for your lovely encouragement!
thank you for this inspiring video! as an urban sketcher sketching mostly in nature, maybe i just found a more appropriate expression!
Haha, I'm the same - when I meet with our urban sketchers' group I always draw plants and people :D. Sketching in nature is more relaxing than in a café or sidewalk in my opinion - it's easier when you're a bit shy about your work as the trees don't look over your shoulder;) and the subject matter is... well... the best that there is:). I hope you get a chance to do some art in nature soon:).
@@veryartyfairyi agree so much with you! and yes, i could draw in nature and even 19 morels!
Thank you,!I found this inspiring and loved the reminder that we can do nature journalling indoors. I'm in the UK and for a lot of the year it's too cold to sit outside to draw and paint.
You are so welcome! I totally get the cold weather not being so inviting to sketching outdoors - I'm always freezing, too! I have some tips on how to nature journal in winter in another video if you're interested, though. It's not the same as in the summer and spring but it's doable with some tricks. However, indoors is always an option - and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it - if you go outside and bring something home (either a twig, a pebble or a memory, they all work) you can be inspired and warm at the same time:). I hope you have some sunny days now - we have wonderful weather these last few days!
@@veryartyfairy Thank you so much! Oh great.. I'll go and check out that video. I need to be comfortable to create 😅 We have had a few warm days lately - I'm glad you have good weather!
Hope the new job is going well. As usual, I love your art!! Looking forward to the nature journaling!
Thank you! 😊 It is quite stressful as everything is new but I hope I will get the hang of it and have more time and energy to do art soon:). Another nature journaling video coming up:)
Hi from Norway. Nice idea, maybe I’ll try this
Great, if you do, please let me know:). We collaborate a lot with Norway because you also have a lot of woods and everybody is enthusiastic about your landscape:). I haven't been there but I believe them so I guess we're both extremely lucky to be able to walk outside into the nature and draw from it:). Thank you for your comment:)
This video is really informative! Not only does it provide tips for artists, but also it's a great tool for learning how to identify plants! You are absolutely lovely, i love seeing how genuinely excited you are about creating artwork. I'm so happy YT has been showing more videos from independent creators lately; I'm able to come across absolute gems like this❤
Glad it was helpful! That was such a nice review I'm so happy:) I never thought you could identify trees so good just based on one twig - but he can tell you for any little sprig where it came from, just amazing! I'm not that good yet but as guys called me "budding dendrologist - no pun intended" I guess I'm on the right path:). I really love art, it's my escape into the dream world and that often mixes with the nature world because nature is very magical and it never ceases to be even if you study it for decades... I'm also very happy about the new yt algorithm - it's hard to find new creators sometimes and it's hard to keep making videos if you don't know if there's a single person watching or getting something out of it so comments really help:). Thank you so much for that!
🪵💚🍀
Thank you - twigs are always available - almost everywhere:). Shamrocks will be out soon, though:). And today it's St. Patrick's day so 🍀☘ are appropriate (well, actually, I messed it - the 4leave clover is not Ireland's symbol - David Nihil has a great comic bid on this on yt:) but shamrocks and green hearts are so I hope Irish will forgive me:)).
Been rainy and drab here as well, but not very cold, only in the 40's range, and will warm up next week. My Daffodils are blooming so pretty! Love your twigs!! You always inspire me with your artwork!!
Rainy and gray over here as well. Will try with twigs from my neighborhood.🎉🎉
It's the rainy season (at least in Europe) so yea, rain on the field, rain on the way to work... but we can still find great art prompts in nature even in the bare winter woods:). But spring is coming:) - we don't have daffodils yet (my favourite flowers) but we do have snowdrops and crocus. Maybe I should do something with flowers soon to celebrate them? Thank you so much for your sweet encouragement it really means a lot to me!
Very, you are amazing and inspiring. When I get around to trying this, I will get back to you and let you know how it went.
Please do! Thank you very much - comments like this always make my day:). I'm so happy if the technology can bring some ideas how to get into nature and enjoy art - there's good things to everything, let's use it:). And if nothing else, people usually don't get sadder after an art video as they do after watching other content sometimes and that's something:).
Found you and loved, loved, loved your video🎉🎉🎉
Yay! Thank you so much! I'm so happy you found me and I'll keep making videos about nature journaling because it combines two of my main passions - nature and arts so... i'd really like to share that - there's so much there to discover:) I hope you'll join me in the process:)
Yes! It will be fun@@veryartyfairy
Such a lovely video and great tips!! I used to think I should only have one sketchbook and it was so hard to stay inspired. After I finished my first sketchbook I learned it’s ok to use multiple and I love drawing in all of my sketchbooks 🤩💗 your art is also so cool and looks so fun!! I’ll definitely be subscribing :)
Yea, we've probably all been taught "use up the first sketchbook first" approach - but for me and many artists this "multitasking method" works much better. If I play in one sketchbook it's totally chaotic since it's a million of styles and sometimes even different media and subjects all over the place... But if I have several it's much easier:) And less pressure - you already know what you draw in that sketchbook when you pick it up:). I'm still a bit too eclectic but I guess some of it will never go away... Thank you so much and I'm very grateful for every subscriber:). I hope you enjoy it here:).
This is so cute and beautiful! You’re so talented!
Thank you so much!! It's funny how people see the best in others - I'd never call myself talented but it really made my day. Sometimes ideas just flow and I think they are nothing much but fine to play with - and than somebody likes them - it's such a nice feeling, thank you for that!
This is so incredibly cute! Thanks for that fantastic inspiration! I love your channel - you inspired me to go out and just draw, something I always wanted to do but never dared doing because I thought I could not really draw. But you're so encouraging!
That is soooo heart-warming to read! I'm so so happy if these little videos help someone to go to nature and do art and give permission to do "something unproductive, even if we are not good at it yet, just for us"... I guess we all need it. Isn't it ironic that this little "unproductive" thing that we do is actually so very helpful and needed for our health - it's similar to what exercise does for the body instead of drugs - and art does this for the mind. Thank you so much it really made me so happy to read this!
Yes, you are so right!!🥰@@veryartyfairy
I just stopped scrolling through my RUclips feed when I came across this because your smile and joy are so infectious - I always find myself smiling when your video comes on. You feel like a kindred spirit to me. Thank you for these videos! ❤😊
You are so kind, thank you so much! Lately I've been pretty busy so it was hard to get myself to editing (it's not that hard for me to do art:D) so your comment came as doctor ordered it. Thank you so much, it really means a lot to me!
This is so useful. I've been thinking about this a lot recently. Thank you so much! Where do you usually buy your ink from?
I'm so glad it was helpful! I buy my ink from a local art and craft store but you could buy it online as well. We even get a pretty good Indian ink in local grocery store (from Koh-i-noor - but I live in Europe). If you want your pen to be waterproof, use waterproof ink. I haven't had any issues with different inks - none of them clogged the pen. Some have a slight odour and others take longer to dry so test first if that is important to you. But in the end - the pen would go into the recycling bin and would probably never be recycled since it's made of many small different parts of different compounds anyway so you can't ruin it:). If you have any other question don't hesitate to ask - sometimes it takes me a while to see the comments but I always answer:). I'm so happy somebody will save their pens, thank you!
@@veryartyfairy oh yes, than you so much, I've been thinking about it for a long time now. I'm already in Europe (in the UK) initially I was thinking about getting some pens that are refillable, but if I can just refill the existing pens, that's even better
This is very inspiring. I’m glad I discovered your channel! 😊
Thank you so much! I'm so happy when something resonates! I love playing around with art and sharing it although I'm still pretty clumsy with making videos. Your comments just make my day every time!
I subscribed to your channel ❤
Thank you so much! I love art so much and would like to share the joy it brings! I never know how successful I am with that so your comments really give me a lot of motivation:). Thank you!
How fun! I love it.
Glad you enjoyed it! I plan on making some more like this if you will like it - I was thinking one with trees since I work with them a lot now:). What do you think?
You have a beautiful accent
Thank you, hihi, that's the perks of living in a tiny European country;). You get a very funny accent that way... I hope it's not too distracting, though.
@@veryartyfairy no! It’s so beautiful! 💝
Love your personality and the smile in your voice! Thank you for sharing this and explaining everything. Wishing you blessings in all you do. Keep up that wonderful exuberance! ❤
Thank you so much! I am so so happy that this video of them all reached so many of you because nature and art are my biggest passions - I guess it shows :D. Thank you so much for your comment - it really made my day!
