I love the dresser. It turned out beautifully. I love the way you compared your work to life. None of us are perfect and we all have imperfections. That’s what makes us unique.
❤😉❤
THis lady is finding herself through her creativity and it is shining through. What a beautiful honest spirit... as far the piece of furniture... what a beautiful honest spirit... incredible work.
Everything is perfect in its imperfection 😍
Love the end result. It is gorgeous 😍
Thank you Fiona. I’m so happy you are here 💓
We can all relate to the baggage. Very moving video. Beautiful piece and I learned a lot. ❤️
Thank you! I hope you were inspired!
I had tears in my eyes watching this! I so identify with everything you said! I am still half broken but through my art and craft I too am healing and putting the pieces back together again! Thank you so much!!!!
Verne, I get it!! We are all broken in some way. You are a beautiful creation and you are created to do beautiful things 💓💓💓💓
I just adore you! Your use of and how you apply decoupage is brilliant! Great makeover
And I adore you , my new friend !
Absolutely beautiful... soft and delicate. But has the wear that is sturdy amd strong. Im so inspired. Thank you
This video was my introduction to ellen j good and your lovely family! I couldn't hit subscribe quickly enough. Both to your channel and your beautiful attitude to life. Thank you for allowing us into both!
Oh welcome Valerie we are so excited to have you here! Thank you so much for tuning in and commenting. We hope you come back often!
My favorite piece, thrilled to watch the process. 💖
You are so kind! Thank you CJ!
Ps. The dresser was absolutely gorgeous, hard to believe you only did one coat of the base color but all turned out great. Best of luck to you!
Oh my! We err under so much pressure to get it done! In real life, I would definitely give it a few coats 😂 thank you so much for stopping by.
Beautiful narrating, beautiful work, beautiful part of who each of us are. Thank you for sharing and teaching.
Thank you so much for tuning in Thavy!
You've taken something so blah and basic and turned it into a work of art. I really enjoyed your video. Great job! And I celebrate with you the things you learned about yourself...especially your newly discovered ability of letting go of perfection.
Thank you Linda! Letting go is not always easy but it’s always good. 💓 . Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
You not only have a way with refinishing but a way with words. Using flawed furniture as a way to describe how so many of us feel inside and how our imperfections make us uniquely wonderful. You are a true artist!!!
Oh and your piece turned out stunning 🤩
Thank you! I hope you were inspired!
So true how we try to get rid of our imperfections but God wants us to embrace them because then we lean into Him instead😊
It’s SO TRUE!!!! 💓
God made us ....so I embrace my imperfections... they are HIS CREATION ! Why the imperfections? Like you mentioned Rhonda...we lean into HIM! 💜💜 When I am weak...HE IS STRONG... Amen?
@@jaynebrown693 AMEN!
Lynne not only is your piece beautiful..... SO IS THE VIDEO AND YOUR WORDS !!!!
God bless sweet lady! 💜
Thank you Jayne. 💓 you are such a dear.
I just hit my bell to get notifications. Listening to you is SO refreshing and freeing!!!!! That piece you created is a STUNNER!!!!!!! You are also!!!!! Blessings to you and keep those edges of yours soft! Not everything needs fixing ❤️
Kelli! Thank you SO MUCH!!! everything you said means so much! I appreciate you following along as I try to add inspirational content and projects to grow my new channel!
I loved this video! I found you and Mint by Michelle by accident. You posted Waterplay that reminded you of your beloved Lake Ontario. It triggered an obsession - I spent summers on the lake for years with generations of my family from Oswego, Jefferson Park, Henderson Harbor.I ordered Waterplay and Girl on a Swing from Michelle not knowing you were a stockist. $80.00 later I was a nervous wreck and ordered Girl on a swing from you too in case I messed it up - I didn't - and these pieces will bring this 72 year old a lot of joy in Illinois - 3 years is too long to be away. from the lake. When I head back - Medina is on the way!
Oh my gosh!!! I’m so glad you found us! And so sorry I didn’t see this comment! We are all learning through the decoupage process! Thank you so much for following along . 💓
Precision and grace; bravo!
Linda thank you, thank you!
This piece is absolutely stunning! Bravo to you!
Rachel, thank you so much.
I've just found you on You Tube beautiful lady.. this piece of art is just stunning.. and the message from this video is wonderfully honest.. well done 👏
I’m so happy you’re here! Thank you Joy. I do appreciate your kind words. 💓
Sooo beautiful! Thank you for sharing!!!! I inherited my mom’s decoupaged trunk that sat in our family room for years and years. There is some damage to the top and some of the paper has torn off. This video was so helpful. First, it taught me what decoupage is and how it is done. I have more appreciation for this trunk knowing the effort, care, and creativity my mom put into it. Second, I am one step further to learning how to fix the damage! Thank you!
You have a treasure there! So glad this video was helpful. Thank you for being here with us!
Your authenticity is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your amazing talents with the world. Rock on, Lovely lady! 🤩
Thank you for being here so I can share!!!!
Love the dresser and your vulnerability Lynn! Thank you for sharing as a reminder to us all 😘
It’s all about the process, right? In painting AND in our personal life! 💓
Lynn… I learn so much from watching you! We are all imperfect and have broken pieces. You help me with mine! Thanks❤
Oh what a touching post, thank you so very much!
Love this Lynne! Thank you for sharing your heart! Thank you for being a wonderful teacher. Love seeing the up close shots of you using your fingers to manipulate the paper to get it just so and showing us how you blend the paint colors so it looks like an extension of the paper. Beautiful piece!
Hi Lourdes! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you always for your continued support 💓
Excess luggage, do they still charge for that.😁
You are beautiful on the outside and inside. That’s what we see Lynne. Flaws only make us human and empathetic to others. And more interesting as people.
Your piece turned out beautifully and I agree with not wanting that sticker look!
👏❤️❤️
I wonder if that’s why I’m drawn to the most beaten up sad looking pieces. Those are a darn sight easier to “fix”. We need to invent an internal Bondo for our own personal repairs.
I love everything you said! It’s all true! And I am also willing to give the worst pieces my best effort! 💓💓💓💓
This is one of the best videos Ive watched on RUclips ever ! The paper is beautiful, wonder if its still available 😊
I really love your spirit! Beautiful piece of furniture and you did wonderful!
Thanks Gina. I appreciate you watching! 💓💓💓
This was a sensitive and insightful approach to art and craft which really resonated for me as I wrestle with creative blocks, with each step of your process the piece became more lovely, complete and strong. I thank you so much for sharing this video.
Thank you for your kind words and for being here with us, we sure do appreciate you!
Gorgeous! I have been binge watching your videos. Love them all but this one is extra special. Thanks so much for sharing your art and yourself!🤗♥️🤗
Thank you so much for coming by. 😊
I actually starting painting for stress relief. After 20 years of marriage, I am now single. So I needed a hobby and this is where it has taken me. I am fixing myself and learning so much! Thanks for your honesty and vulnerability
Oh yes, PJ. It is creativity that can sooth our brokenness and connect us to what is good. Best wishes to you in this journey, my friend. 💓
This dresser came out great!
Thank you! I think it’s one of my favorite pieces.
BREATHTAKING Ellen you do such beautiful creative work...TFS.
Thank you Maria… I SO appreciate your comment. Blessings! 💓
Beautiful piece ! Wow ! If I saw that for sale, I would buy it even if I had no place to put it ! As for working on ourselves, well, I have noticed a funny thing about people - some of us have absolutely no capability of inner self reflection - these people just don’t ever give a second thought to anything they do - good, bad or ugly ! Then there are those people who are in their heads sooooo much, examining infinitely their every thought & action - both of those are - to me - very hard to be around for long ! So what I try to do is not beat myself up too much if I screw up, give myself a little praise if deserved and go through life with a smile & a kind word as much as possible - I think you do a good job of that, from what I see ! Be as kind to yourself as you try to be to others ! And you are so amazingly talented & creative - that is truly a gift from God ! Blessings to you from sunny Central Florida ! 🥰
Some wise words Melody and thank you so much for the compliments and for tuning in! Enjoy your warm weather!
I love the black n white
.looks like a black n white photo from long ago!!
Yes, it sure does! Thank you for stopping by! 💓
It’s Beautiful ❤️😘 I love how your dresser came out....so Pretty !!!! Thank you for teaching me 😊
Lovely interview & tutorial. It was art & the poetry of life. Beautifully said & done ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for your kind words!
Absolutely stunning!
Thanks so much 💓
Everything about this video is beautiful. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
Thank you sweet lady. 💕
I love this video. I have all these supplies but do not use them because I am scared.... Scared of messing up, scared that want I want to do so perfectly will not be achievable because I messed it up. I love how your minds works. I have a cabinet in mind that I stare at every day saying this will be the day I do it.... I think I am ready to do it. You are such an inspiration and you make such incredible art. Thank you.
Do it Robin don't hesitate anymore. Give it a shot, you can always sand it down and repaint, etc. Go for it, I am excited with you for what you will create! Enjoy creating!
Beautifully done and I’m 68 yo so I know exactly what you were talking about! Thank you for sharing your talent and your thoughts!
Thank you so much!
Ellen...I can relate to so many things that you did..and more importantly what you SAID! I've been traveling through a journey which I do not understand, but I've been brought to this place of IOD, DIY DEBI'S paint, and furniture...for which I dreamt of over 20 years ago...Long before my pursuit of sculpting and becoming licensed..which all came true...only to disappear because of a head injury in 2014. In 2021 I decided no matter how much I could paint, I would try again. Thank you for your inspiration.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I’m so sorry for your struggles along the way, but so glad you can keep a positive outlook!
OMG how fantastic. I love love love what you create 😊
Thank you! It’s a beautiful paper, and was such a joy to work with! 💓
I love your dresser and I love how you shared so much about finding yourself and how it affects your art.
Thanks for watching Mary. It’s a life journey for all of us 💓
Lovely piece.
Many thanks!
I think this is the best video you’ve ever done! I’ve been a subscriber for awhile now.
Thank you so much 💓
That dresser is amazing!
Thanks Carol! It was a fun project
Lovely video. Thank you. Always learning a lot from your videos.
I’m so happy to know that! Thank you for taking the time to comment. It means a great deal to me 💓
This piece is fabulous and you are inspiring!!!
Gretchen, thank you. It was quite an experience and I’m so thankful to have had the opportunity!
So beautiful. I think it's perfect. My style for sure.
Thank you Michelle. It’s such a lovely paper. I’m so glad I got to use it! 💓
I have so much excess baggage, I'm carrying it around my waist! I love what you did with this piece and I love that you learned something about yourself. Maybe one of these days I'll take a drive to NY to visit your shop. Summers are good for that and I am in CT!
I can relate!!!! That baggage can find it’s way around my waist, too! Lol! I would love it if you came to visit!
I think yours was my favorite piece from the Bootcamp 💕
Julie, what a sweet thing to say!!!! It means so much to me! 💓
I absolutely love this dresser! It’s beautiful.
Why thank you, Jeanette! The papers are just beautiful, aren’t they?
@@ellenjgoods yes.. You inspired me to paint. I’ve been binge watching diyagogo & friends on RUclips all weekend.. the paint is difficult to find..
We are always happy to ship in the US!
Wow Lynne! Not only did I love your piece and all the steps you took to complete it but it was more than that at least for me . Your brutal honesty about who you are the good and the bad I very much resonated with. Thank you❤️
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! We all have stuff! And it’s okay!
I love this❤& the dresser is beautiful.
Thank you so much!
Great video Lynn! You’re a natural!
Gina, thank you 💓💓💓💓
Wow thank you for this, I’m just about to start my own but have been putting it off as I was a bit nervous, seeing what and how you have done yours has given me the motivation to just begin and go with the flow of it. A new fan from the UK 😊 ❤❤
You can do it! I am honored to have motivated you in any way! Thank you for being here with us!
Love this dresser and the video! ❤️
Thank you 😊 I appreciate your feedback!
Just beautiful- i just ordered from your website.. never done a decoupage before… just so beautiful- thank you!
Thank you so very much, I hope you have been enjoying creating!
I absolutely love this Lynne!! What a beautiful video! Love you!!
YOU are a dear and a darling. And I love you 💓
Wow! You created a masterpiece 👏🏽😍 great job 👏🏽
Thank you so much!!
This was absolutely one of your most stunning peices. I feel like the story with this work of art is what brings it together and let's both parts shine beautifully! Thank you for sharing this 🙏
Thank you Brit! Isn’t it true that whatever we create has a story behind it? No matter what it is, your story comes through! I emailed you about the gallery series and will touch base in a few days 😊💓💓💓
@@ellenjgoods Thank you so much🙏
Oh my not-Ellen (Lynne).... I was so jealous of how beautiful your piece was. It was my bet for first sale of the day. I didn’t know you were dealing with an emotional baggage issue. And wrinkles are good on our face! Just like your piece, we are all perfectly imperfect!
Oh my... yes. It was a tough week prior to Bootcamp. It was VERY difficult to get on that plane! But what an incredible experience it was to be in the presence of so many of you INCREDIBLE ladies! I will never forget that week! 💓💓💓
Sometimes when you’ve had a really rough time, the best thing you can do is get away.
Oh my did I just learn a ton? YES I DID!!! YOU are amazing and you make us out here know that we too can accomplish something just as splendid. Thank you and big hugs to you! Your dresser is divine! Have a lovely week! : )
Joey! I couldn’t be more thrilled ! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! It’s all a journey, right?
Wonderful job on this video!
Thank you Barbara!
Gorgeous piece
Thanks Ann! I really appreciate it!
This looks fabulous
Thank you so much!
Beautiful dresser and Beautiful story
Thank you so much 😊
Three minutes in and I’m giddy !!! First, I just adore you and your philosophy- but I’ve been so interested in seeing Tarnished Pearl paint up close and personal (after all, my family nickname is Pearli) 🤗 and I’m laughing because you address the thing that makes me “bleed” talking about always cutting up the paper to customize your artwork (let’s call it what is). I’m learning a lot about myself by watching you let go, be free, and trusting in the process and I’m only 3 minutes in. Be prepared for continuing comments…..🥰🥰🥰
Cheryl! Don’t be afraid to cut up those papers and transfers! It’s okay! Breath…. 😂
@@ellenjgoods I may need a workshop, on a lake, with Ellen J ...... 🤗🤣🥰
This is so beautiful!!
Thank you Rose, you are so kind. 💓
Beautiful!!!!
Thanks Patty!
Beautiful
thank you for this wonderful sharing moment!
Thank you for stopping by 💓
Absolutely stunning 👍
Thank you sweet lady
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Hi Lynne, fantastic piece and a great video ❤.
Plenty of food for thought there. Love, Michelle xx
It makes me SO happy that you were inspired! 💓
Stunning ❤
So glad you think so Olivia, thank you for tuning in!
Great job Lynne! Loved this!
That makes me happy! Honestly, yours was my very favorite piece at boot camp 💓
I LOVE this so much Lynne! When I started doing classes, I found that SO many women have issues with needing things to be perfect. I was noticing that there was always at least ONE in every class that was REALLY stressing out about the tiniest little flaws. I found myself saying "its ok to embrace the imperfections" over and over again. One of my friends was in a large class participating and she said how she loved that I always told people to embrace imperfection- and it stuck as a slogan for the store. Once I opened the store and did more classes, I found that so often, the classes became a place to vent while we create sometimes. It almost ALWAYS comes up that things aren't perfect that we create- they are handmade by flawed humans and that there is SO much beauty in that. And because we are humans, we are all flawed. And there is so much beauty in that too! Self love requires embracing our imperfections as we continue to just be or best selves. I often say "5 cents please" (like Lucy in her psychiatry booth LOL) because sometimes, it really is a form of therapy when you get these women in creating art. They leave a little lighter, and their vibes are always a lot higher. I love what we do! Thank you for showing your human vulnerability Lynne!
Hi Melissa. You are so right! We really struggle with perfection and comparison. It thrills me when I do my creative retreats and we can talk about how to let all of if go. the great master artists had the same struggles! Best wishes with your workshops as you guide your lovely artists to discovering their unique talent 💓
@@ellenjgoods thank you for continuing to inspire me! XO
Thank you for your transparency, it came in a time when I needed to hear it most. You had me in tears from my own self reflection but left me smiling from not only your honesty but beautiful job on your dresser.
Dee, thank you for responding. I think we all struggle with the same stuff, really. It’s mostly about fear of rejection and comparison to others which keeps us from the joy of “healing revealing .” We hold so tightly to the things that we think will destroy us but really, those things can only strengthen us when we let them go. Much love to you Dee. 💓
@@ellenjgoods Well said, and much love to you as well Ellen
Gorgeous!!
Thank you 😊
Love the piece and the video
Awwww, thanks so much! 💓
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Such beauty. Many blessings
Thank you and same to you!
Wow, a great video. I love the venerable story & the piece is beautiful.
💓💓💓💓💓
Just found your channel, so different... loved your self reflection in-between your decoupage lesson....cool!!
Thank you Anna! I’m so happy you are here with us!
Hey Lynne, looking forward to this👏👏
Thank you!!!!
Just beautiful
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful!!!!💖
Thank you so much Sandra! Enjoy your day 💓
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
I really admire your work, and your reflections. Embrace the wrinkles, you can't stop the hands of time. Kind of ironic that we create "age" in our furniture pieces, but try to slow down or stop the wrinkles and ageing in ourselves. Societal pressure? Anyway, this piece is stunning!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, my friend. I think you’re right! I love creating aging on my pieces, but will do anything to hide a wrinkle 😂
This is fantastic,great job Lyn.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 💓💓💓💓
This is a great video!
Thanks Sandy! 💓💓💓💓
Hello from The Netherlands! I am totally in love ith this piece. This inspires me a lot. I think it,s very original and perfect.
Hello Lulu! Thank you so much for watching!!! This is a very special piece, and I’m so glad you love it 💓
The dresser is amazing. I am a perfectionist but I have found that my perfectionist tendencies are not a good thing. It holds me back sometimes or creates too much stress (I am a knitter too and have ripped out hours of work to fix something that nobody will probably notice).
I can TOTALLY relate!!!! I guess we have to work on it together!
Amazing
Thank you 😊
Love this!! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
