You never cease to amaze me how original and how absolutely adorable is that little snowman. Thank you so so much for hosting this wonderful challenge and for sharing your creativity with me always
Welcome to 2024 Retro Christmas Collective by Monica!❤Filled with Bow ties, Whippity Dos and glitter. Kitsch for days!❤❤. Love this one, Monica. The ice cream cone was so original! Thanks again for sharing your talent, sweet friend 😊. Blessings and hugs to you this week!😊❤☃️🌲🤗
Oh so cute! The snowman ornament , the little ice cream cone lady, such sweet personalitys they have! Great use of those pull apart clear ornaments, I wouldn't have thought of adding it to a frame as a snow globe!!! Really cool idea! Cant wait to see what you bring us next time!🥰⛄🍦💖
You are a master at creating these vintage pieces. I love how you made them into ornaments. I image your tree is filled with these vintage art ornaments❣️TFS your expertise with us all, you share so many great tips on how to create these. Have a great week❤
Hiya, FlowerChyld! I’m so glad that you enjoyed it! I love it, too! Especially at Christmas! Loving that it brings back fond memories of your childhood! That’s why I love it, as well! Takes me back to the magic of Christmas I felt as a kid! Happy week ahead ❤️🥰❤️
@UpAllNightDIY I just had a great idea. I've always wanted to open up a drive-thru bakery that stays open very late at night because sometimes you just want a warm brownie in your pjs at 2:00 a.m. The decor would be MidMod kitsch. On the drive-up menu would also be opportunities to purchase your wonderful artwork. One-Stop Shopping! Pick up sweets for yourself and last minute shopping for a gift. The perfect pairing! 😃
Hiya, Kat!! Aw 🤗 Thank you so much! I’m very happy to hear that it cheered you up!! That’s made me smile!! I truly appreciate your sharing with me & your kindness!! Have a fabulous weekend ❤️🥰❤️
I love it Monica, everything is so vintage and absolutely perfect. I have to watch Annie & Dawn and the rest of the great creators ❤❤I really need to start crafting again. Hugs
Hiya, Leslie! We missed you today! Thank you, gf! I hope you’re doing well! You do need to start creating again!! Your Reaper was pretty bad a**!! Hugs to you!! Have a fab week!!❤️❤️❤️

Hello Monica, I am a new subscriber to your channel, by way of Dawn's channel. You two ladies are incredible creators! Growing up in the 60's and 70's, I am partial to all things vintage, and the three ornaments you created here are so wonderful! I love them all!
Hiya, Lori!! Yay!! Welcome!! So happy that you’re here!! Dawn is my favorite crafting buddy! She is fabulous!! Just love her! I truly appreciate that! Same for me. I was always so fascinated by the holiday decorations when I was a kid. Everything was so whimsical & over the top!! It’s definitely why I lean into it with my designs. Many thanks for your support & sweet comment! Happy week ahead ❤️🥰❤️
Oh Monica, they are all absolutely precious. What a wonderful idea with the Christmas globe. Where did you get that adorable picture of the snowman? Hope you and hubby had a wonderful anniversary.
Hiya, Deborah! Thank you, gf! Isn’t that snowman just the cutest!! I found him on Pinterest years ago & have been obsessed with him since! Husband had to work late that night, but we hung out when he got home & are planning some fun for this weekend ☺️
WOW....girl ,you are fabulous! I did the snowmen heads on jars. the clay kinda cracked ,maybe not thick enough...do you wet or lotion your hands while shaping?
Hiya, Irene! Sometimes I wet my hands, but I tend to forget 😂 Yeah, it’s possible that the clay was too thin. I usually don’t mind some cracking unless it’s really bad or interferes with the integrity of the piece. I should pick up some jars & give that a go. They’d make cute gifts. Thank you so much for spending time with me! Happy week ahead ❤️🥰❤️
Omg!! Rachel!! I LOVE KINDY’S!! 😂❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for reminding me!! They open soon, I think!! Yo! Now, I need to Google when they open🤣 I did buy some garland & lights there last year!
It says that they open at 10 am tomorrow. I kinda remember the cashier telling me that they open right after Halloween. They had a bunch of Halloween items in there last year
Monica, it’s me again. I would like to ask you a question. I have twice now used crayons air dry clay on Reynolds’s wrap round circle for a snowman head, then a styrofoam round head. Both times Monica, the both cracked and fell apart! I’m so frustrated what am I doing wrong? Please help faithful subscriber!
Hiya, Neta! Oh no!! I’m so sorry! That’s very frustrating! Did you use regular Crayola air dry or Model Magic clay? If you used Crayola air dry maybe you need to roll the clay a bit thicker. Sometimes if it’s too thin it will crack. Also, if you use water to smooth it, as the water dries it can cause the clay to crack. I would try a thicker amount of clay. I hope that helps Neta. Lmk. Wishing you luck, my friend ❤️🥰❤️

What do you use to dab the cheeks and eyes on?
Hiya, Grammjam!
I use the end of a paint brush handle or a dowel. Sometimes, I use a q-tip. Even a fresh pencil eraser works!
🎅
Thank you, Marla!!😘
Anyone else think of the old dippity doo hair gel from 50 they 70s? When she says whippy doo that's what I think of,
😂🤣😂 That’s exactly what I was thinking when I said it!! Dippity Do!!
I keep waiting for you to pull something out to add to one of your crafts that you got from Kindy's 😂
Omg!! Rachel!!
I LOVE KINDY’S!! 😂❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for reminding me!! They open soon, I think!!
Yo! Now, I need to Google when they open🤣
I did buy some garland & lights there last year!
Just looked!! They’re open tomorrow!!
Guess where I’m going 🤣🤣🤣
@@UpAllNightDIY Already?! I could've sworn they didn't open till Black Friday. I might have to make time to go this weekend...
It says that they open at 10 am tomorrow.
I kinda remember the cashier telling me that they open right after Halloween. They had a bunch of Halloween items in there last year
Monica, it’s me again. I would like to ask you a question. I have twice now used crayons air dry clay on Reynolds’s wrap round circle for a snowman head, then a styrofoam round head. Both times Monica, the both cracked and fell apart! I’m so frustrated what am I doing wrong? Please help faithful subscriber!
Hiya, Neta!
Oh no!! I’m so sorry! That’s very frustrating!
Did you use regular Crayola air dry or Model Magic clay?
If you used Crayola air dry maybe you need to roll the clay a bit thicker. Sometimes if it’s too thin it will crack. Also, if you use water to smooth it, as the water dries it can cause the clay to crack.
I would try a thicker amount of clay.
I hope that helps Neta.
Lmk. Wishing you luck, my friend ❤️🥰❤️
@ hiya back. That was my issue then. I need to use and measure my clay thicker. Thank you and have a great evening! I respect your opinion so much!
I appreciate your support, Neta☺️
