    I love these. My husband passed away last July and we didn't do ANY holidays since. He was a young 53 yr old Papaw. Our 2 grandsons...now 8 & 3 miss him terribly. I haven't felt any connection to life since then either. But watching this video has inspired me to give these babies the best Christmas ever. I can't wait to see them do some of these!! Thank you for the love I can feel from your heart in these videos. 😢❤️‍🩹🎁

      I'm so sorry for your loss, I couldn't even imagine what you are going through. I know crafting can be therapeutic for me to just stay busy and block out the world sometimes, I hope you can find some joy this holiday season and get quality time in with your sweet grandbabies. Thank you for your sweet comment and sharing that with me! Sending hugs! ❤️

    If you want more uniform-size marshmallows, you could roll out a "rope" and slice it into even-sized sections; then roll and pat like you did to round the edges. Your handwriting is so good for this 'Folk" look! I think I will try a reindeer with twig antlers from my back yard!

  • @edithh9478
    @edithh9478 2 года назад +7

    You’re amazing! So talented. I like how you don’t let perfection get in the way of your creativity. The reindeer is awesome, and the moss was perfect. I think it also would be cute to (spray?) paint the Spanish moss different ‘hair’ colors-black, brown, red, white, grey, salt/pepper… etc. Not sure how it would look, but worth a try. 😅

    The moss is fine! It doesn’t take anything away from the project.❤

    My favorite is the snowman with the cute eyelashes. Now I am in the mood for some real hot cocoa!
