Love your videos. Keep doing what your doing and remember that you're helping others with letting people know that things may happen that are bad, but it only makes you stronger.

I truly hope it helps someone, and I'm so happy you are helping me help others with your comments and by sharing your stories. Hopefully, people who are hurting will feel welcome and encouraged to overcome their trials. Have a beautiful weekend! Big hug and lots of love
Hi, my sweet Samantha! How are you doing? Aw, thank you so much! I really love making them and I'm so happy you liked them! :) Hope you are having a beautiful week, and thank you so much for watching and for your sweet comment! Big hug and love
I know I’m late to your video but I just was so excited about this that I just ordered stuff. I have some pretty beads and bows, but I didn’t know what else I could do with all of it. Thank you for your channel! You’re so creative and sweet! I’m appreciative of your stories. I’ve gone through some bad things from my ‘loved’ ones. I had to walk away from them AFTER I gave them so much of me. It’s rough, but remember, the Lord will ALWAYS be there with you. You don’t walk alone. I adore you and admire your strength 💕💕💕💕💕 Keep going 💕💕💕💕💕
Aw, thank you so very much! I love you guys so much, and so appreciate your friendship, sweet words, and support! It makes me so happy that you enjoy my videos and they inspire you to be creative and use your supplies! And, so sorry you've had gone through bad experiences. It's hard to walk away, but sometimes it's the healthier thing to do. Thankfully, even though my family made mistakes that affected my life in negative ways. They were not intentionally made to cause harm, and a lot of effort has been made to correct what they later learned was not right. I hope you have love and support from other loved ones in your life and are living a happy, healthy life. Thank you, again, so much for caring and for your friendship and support! Big, big hug and lots of love
@@CarolinasCreationsHandmade you’re so awesome! Thank you for taking time to reply, not just to me, but everyone! That’s so incredible! Your kindness shows through in every video you make. Thank you, once again, for ALL you do. Stay strong, take care of yourself and give everything over to the Lord. 💕❤️💕🙏🥰🌹
Aw, thank you so, so much! That is so sweet of you to say, and I appreciate it! I try to reply to all the messages, because I appreciate you guys taking the time to write them and they mean a lot to me. THANK YOU! Yes, God got us! :) Have a beautiful weekend! Big hug and tons of love
Thank you for sharing some of your story and your video was very helpful in many ways. You will be in my thoughts and prayers as you are going through something very rough right now. I am almost scared to say my story cause I feel ashamed and almost dirty because of it but I started on anxiety and depression medication at the age of 12. And so that was very tough already then when I was 17 I was sexually assaulted on vacation in the Bahamas. I'm 44 now and still have it pushed down inside of me. But I'm on the road to overcoming the pain and hate for someone that hurt me and changed my life forever. Thanks carolina! I hope this wasn't tmi. Maybe one day my story will help someone!!
Hi, sweet Heather! I'm so very sorry you have gone through so much! And thank you so very much for being brave and sharing your story in the hopes it helps others. Please, never be ashamed! Mental health issues can be very difficult to overcome, and much more when you are a kid. I'm so very sorry you feel dirty in any way. What happened to you was not your fault. Never blame yourself. It's not on you, it's all on the person who caused so much damage to you. I hope you know you are special in your own right, and the fact that you decided to share your story to try to help others speaks volume about your character. It takes a lot of courage, and I hope it helps you, as well. It's also great that you are working on leaving the pain and hate for the person who hurt you behind. It's really hard to understand, but we end up hurting ourselves when we hate the other person. Don't give him anymore power over you. You are worthy of being happy and loved. I'm proud of you, and I hope you feel proud of yourself. Please, know you have a new friend here. If you ever want to to talk, please, email me. Big hug and tons of love to you!
@@CarolinasCreationsHandmade O Carolina your response brought me to tears. Ive never shared that openly like this. Only to certain close people. You helped me so much and I do feel better telling my story. I shouldn't hide it because of what others might think of me. Thank you again Carolina for listening and not judging me and calling me a friend. You have a beautiful heart ❤️❤️❤️
@@Craftygirlheather Sweet Heather, you are helping me, too. So much! We are all in this together. Just know that I meant every word. You should be proud of yourself. You've kept going, even after facing such a devastating situation. Not everyone has the strength to do that, and you remained a caring person who would actually share something that has been so difficult for you to help others. To me, that says a lot about you. You are special, never forget that. And what happened to you does not define you. What you do about it does, and you are doing amazing! Keep your chin up, be proud of yourself for being where you are, and know that we are always work in progress, we will be always working on ourselves to be better and you are doing just that! Be proud of yourself and never let anyone's misjudgement affect you. They don't walk in your shoes, you do. I'm sending you a huge hug!
Thank you so much, my sweet friend! So happy you like them! And thank you very much for always watching my videos and leaving a comment. I truly appreciate it! Have a beautiful and blessed weekend! Big hug and love
Aw, thank you very much! So happy you like them! And thank very much for watching and for your sweet comments! I really appreciate your friendship and support! Have a beautiful weekend! Big hug and love
Hello my dear friend ❤️ I'm so excited when I see you have uploaded 😊 I'm so glad you're doing better, and that crafting and creating are making you feel like yourself. These pens are stunning 😍 unfortunately, beads and I don't work well together 😑 I find them fussy, and I get frustrated. If I see any locally, that are as pretty as yours, I will definitely consider buying a few. I have a strange love for stationery, especially pens and notebooks. As for the playground...I was a teacher for 15 years, and I can tell you that the playground is one of the worst places ever. The thing with bullies is that they are often victims themselves and bully others to regain a sense of power. And like you said,very often it's the home situation, so yes, it comes down to the adults. Unfortunately, bullying is everywhere, even in the workplace. It's why I quit a job I loved. But anyway, take care dear friend 😘 💕 would you consider doing a step by step beginner mini album? I've always loved your mini albums, especially your Gorjuss ones from years ago. Lots of love ❤️
Hi, my sweet Zonica! How are you and your husband doing? I hope well :) It makes me so happy every time I see one of your comments! Thank you so much for always being so sweet and thoughtful! So happy you like my pens! I know what you mean about beads, they were a bit intimidating for me! But, I couldn't stop buying them because they are so pretty. Then, I had to do something with them, and then found out they are fun to work with. You'd be surprised, maybe if you get to buy some, it'll be the same for you. I love stationary and cute things like that, too! :) You are absolutely right! It's like that saying, "hurt people hurt people", unfortunately. And it's a shame that it's a result of being bullied or going through awful situations. They then grow up and the cycle continues. In my case, it was not like that, thankfully. My siblings and I were really small, and for them it was a game. My cousin was older and she had a very tough home situation, so she was lashing out. My parents and other adults at the time didn't really have the understanding most of us have about it today. They thought it was child's play and just tried to diffuse it by telling me that it was a joke and not to pay attention to it. So, I don't hold any ill feelings towards them. They are actually all great people and love me and have been there for me throughout my life. They made mistakes, but they have always tried to correct them when they realize them. I'm proud of my family, and wouldn't change them for the world. Unfortunately, not everyone has well intentions or the willingness to correct their mistakes. I feel for those little kids who have to go through awful things. And I'm so very sorry that you experienced bullying in your workplace and had to leave a job you loved. It's a shame that things like that happen. It makes me so happy that, even though you had those experiences, you still remain a caring and loving person. You are special, my sweet friend! Thank you so much for always watching and for your friendship and sweet comments! Have an amazing weekend! Big hug and love
Hi, my super sweet Gina! How are you doing? I hope great! :) Thank you so much, I had a busy Friday, but it was a happy one! So happy you liked my tutorial, and thank you so very much for always watching my videos, for your sweet comments and for your friendship! Have an amazing weekend! Big hug and tons of love to you!
Aw, so happy you found my channel and are enjoying my videos, sweet Gardenia! Welcome! I hope you find a lot of inspiration and new ideas to try in my videos. I'm so happy to make a new friend :) Eyelet screws, I'm sure you are right, thank you! For some reason, I have the hardest time remembering the name :) Hope you are having a beautiful weekend! Big hug and lots of love
Hi, sweet Sandra! Thank you so much for watching! Are you talking about the bows? I don't have a measurement for them, but I believe they are around 1". I hope this is helpful! Have a great weekend! Big hug and love
Hi again! Can you give me a link for the storage containers you're using for the bubblegum beads? Also, God has blessed you with an eye for creativity. Of all the tutorials i've watched, your pens are the prettiest designs! 💜 Thx again for sharing :) -Denise
Aw, thank you so very much for your sweet words! I'm so happy you like my pens! And thank you so much for watching! :) Here is a link for a container like the one I use for my beads: amzn.to/3IuXEou I hope this is helpful. Please, keep in mind I will receive a small commission if you purchase using my link, the price you pay won't change whether you use it or not. But, it will help me if you do. Thank you so much, again, for your sweet words! Have a beautiful week! Big hug and love
TY so much. What size beads are you using on your white pen? BTW, you didn't remember the name of the finding on top of the bow. Is it an eye hook? I'm thinking of covering the top of the bow hole with a 3mm or 4mm flatback pearl bead or resin rhinestone😉@@CarolinasCreationsHandmade
Sorry, for the late reply! I didn't see your reply till now :( I don't really have the size of the beads. The bead hole is 2mm, but all the beads are different sizes. So sorry I don't have the measurements for each. And thank you so much for the name! Eye hooks! I need to memorize it, for some reason, I always forget! Thank you, again, and have a beautiful weekend! Big hug and love
Thank you for sharing your lovely craft!
I have things i need in my cart through your links. Now i just need the beads! Thank you!
