Sammie. Please hang strong. You are such a good teacher when it comes to crafting. You are a true artist and I know you will be doing great things. You have a special talent and God will help you use it in many different ways. I love your channel and enjoy ALL you work. So sorry things have been tough for you lately. But I am happy Everette is feeling better. Love you Nana Brenda
I am so sorry you’re going through a difficult time lately. Grieving is hard, then worrying about your child on top of that, can be a tornado of emotions! I am so glad Everett is doing much better! Please don’t be discouraged, you are an amazing creator, and you have a very solid following! We ALL love you! Take the time to care for you. We will be here supporting you in anyway we can. YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!!❤
I personally got sick of the Dollar Tree crafts from everyone and I love everything about your channel! You sprinkle in some DT here and there which is good but the thrift flips are my fav!
We love you Sammie and the family! UTube has been treating everyone terribly! There is nothing wrong with changing the direction of your channel! You are changing with all your new knowledge and sharing that with us. Hang in there girl!❤❤
So sorry you are going through this struggle. Life does have its challenges and losing a loved one is the hardest! You and yours are in my prayers. I am a relatively new follower, and you are doing just what I need and love. I up that your channel can continue to offer creative and inspiring DIY's! I find you so unique and creative and talented.
Dollar Tree stuff has saturated RUclips. Your channel is a breath of fresh air. You’ve had a lot going on. Give yourself some grace. The first anniversary of a huge loss is always the worse. Know you are held in positive thoughts and prayers!❤
Sammie, I am so sorry that you have been going through so much. Ì loved your Dollar Tree crafts and I love your thrift flips even more. Hang in there, sweetie. We are here for you!❤
Prayers for you Sammie and for your family. Glad to hear your son is better. Strep can be fatal. Almost lost my daughter to a strep infection that lead to necrotizing fasciitis in her arm. Praise God for healing. I love your channel and the changes. You inspire me to look at discarded items and repurpose. There are so many channels doing DT projects and they can get boring and repetitive. Because of your ideas, I look at things thru the minds eye, how can I create more beauty with this. Continue doing what you do. Trust the process😊 Trust God! Doubt is not from Him but away to move you off your true calling.
Please do not be discouraged, you have been such an inspiration to me and I am sure others! I started with IOD and DIY products about six months ago and you have been my biggest influence. I love your videos and enjoy every single one!
Sammi, you have inspired so many people to start crafting, and to continue to craft. I know that that doesn't pay the bills, but that is a huge deal! I have been crafting since childhood. Thanks Mom. Lol She used it as stress relief and to save $. I think a lot of us do. You give us so many idea's! I watch a lot of crafters. Many of them mention you. I hope you see how awesome that is! You even inspire those that inspire others. Don't give up! You got this girl!😊
I absolutely looooove your channel and look forward to every episode!! Don't be discouraged! You are doing a great job! RUclips is horrible about changing the goalpost - it's irritating! You are in my prayers. God bless you and your beautiful family!
Please don't be discouraged with the flips you are doing now. Your creativity inspired me to purchase DIY Paints, try IOD products, and start my own little Etsy shop of thrifted flips. I've watched you pretty regularly for just over a year now, and (I remember when you lost your brother) I still make the time to watch your new videos because you always have new ideas and see creativity in flips that other creators just don't. And I agree -- you're a great online teacher. I enjoy listening to your videos! I'm a military wife and mom of four, as well, so I completely get the "when it rains." It's so true. That fever sounds very scary, and I'm so glad they got it figured out and under control. Don't ever feel bad for taking the time to grieve and just inhale your sweet kiddos -- sometimes their cuddles are the only thing that can calm an aching heart. Do what brings you joy and rest in God's peace that surpasses any understanding we can even begin to imagine or experience. I know you know this! ❤
I love thrift flips. Yeah, you can do some cute DT crafts, but for statement pieces, you can't beat a thrift upcycle and you rock in that category, Sammie ❤❤. Hang in there, girl!
I loved all of these projects as always but I really liked how the cover of that hymnal turned out! Absolutely gorgeous!! Please do not doubt yourself or be discouraged by social media. We all love you and the inspiration that you give us. You truly are an amazing woman, wife, mom, and creator!!!! Big hugs ♥
Sammie you have an amazing natural talent. You are honest and genuine. I love your channel and the variety you give. Don’t let the bad apples ruin it for you. ❤️❤️
I can totally relate, sick children and losing a brother. I’m happy to hear Everett is better. Keep a watch thou, my daughter’s severe case of strep came back after strong antibiotics. Your self care and the care of your family come first. Everyone can understand that. I LOVE the dresser in Montgomery’s room and the hymn book is gorgeous. Your transition from DT to now has been a great inspiration to me. I love that you share your talent with me and all your followers. Never give up!!
As for the book cover...... The White was definitely the right choice! Beautiful❤ And omg!!! Another baby?? Wow, that's awesome. Congratulations. Lastly, I lost my sister to cancer. She was 31 and died 3 months after being diagnosed. She was my best friend and I can't even put into words how difficult it was for me. Her physical pain was tremendous (to put it mildly) and I told her in her final days that I would have traded places with her in a minute so as not to feel the pain that I was feeling. I know it's absurd to say that her physical pain was less than my heartache, but at that moment I really felt like it didn't compare. It's the worst hurt I'd ever experienced, and to this day I have yet to experience anything worse. My heart goes out to you because that feeling I can, unfortunately, truly understand. I told her that she better be listening because I would talk to her every single day. I'd like to think she's listening. ❤ Stay strong sweetie. I feel the pain does not lessen but in time it does become manageable, if that makes any sense. Praying for you. As for your channels... Keep doing what you do... The world will catch up. 😊
Hey Sammie, personally I live where you have taken your channel as I too have moved away from Dollar Tree crafts and ventured into better quality DIYs. I will always be here to support you and your family as I have been with you from the start and live everything you do! Hang in there, this shall pass. Also live all of your scrap wood DIYs😊
Sammie ~ We love you and are here for your RUclips videos. I LOVE this new direction away from dollar tree! The DIY paint line is also another reason I'm excited to see what new inspiration you are bringing to your viewers!!! Everything you create is unique & one of a kind. Please dont change!!! Hang in there friend!! Your plate is full for sure, but we can't wait to see what comes next!!! 🤗
First and foremost Sammie. You are amazing in more ways than you know your resiliency, and your tenacity is palpable. Not to mention you are crazy talented and creative.You are an inspiration. As we all know trends change, and I have noticed that a lot of the RUclipsrs have added shop along with them videos. It may be a trend, but I have to admit I do enjoy them. I find myself gravitating towards the ones who take me shopping, live along with them, and then show me what they do with the items whether they are just planning on reselling them as is or making them over and then selling them, which are actually my favorite, seems to be how a lot of RUclipsrs are pivoting.just wanted to add my two cents worth and encourage you to keep going . Sammie ,DO NOT doubt yourself!! You have everything it takes to succeed at this . I’ll be praying 🙏🏼 for God to show you the path to take. 😊 PS if you could use a good laugh … whenever I hear that someone needs to “PIVOT” I tell them to to google (Friends Ross Pivot )🤣😂
I have always enjoyed your quirky personality! I was very happy that you have evolved into upcycling thrift finds. As a fellow creator, I understand the need to branch out in other directions. You do you girl, and always follow where your creative juices take you. After all, that's what this is all about.
I’m a mom of 6… you’re Gonna get through this. You’re not alone. I also lost my brother in September. I lost my husband 5 years ago. You never stop grieving because we never stop loving them. Your channel is fun and inspiring. You’re doing great. You’re not alone. Lots of us here are appreciate you!
I love your channel. You have taught all of us so much! I've been wondering about you, so glad Everett is better. Your upcycles are amazing as usual. Enjoy your Dads visit. ❤
Hi Sammie, family comes first in any job, so don’t be hard on yourself. Life is tough in so many different ways. I love what you do now because uk doesn’t have a dollar store, but we have charity shops, so I have a better chance of trying out different crafts. You inspire so many people as don’t let the others get you down, they are not worth worrying about. 💕
I love that you do the thrift flips they are the best and that's what I like to do. I think watching anybody that does thrift flips gives the opportunity to learn. I wait for your notifications and I'm extremely happy when they're there! Don't doubt yourself you're doing wonderful!
Hiiii, giiiirl sorry you had to go through all that! Happy your little man is feeling better❤. I will watch whatever you put out! You are talented and your DIYs always turns out gorgeous 😊❤. It’s sad that people stopped watched you just because you aren’t using DT items! You are here for inspiration and we are grateful for all your ideas and creations!!! Keep going girl we are here for you❤
Gorgeous up cycles as always! I love that book holder and I think the white dry brushing made it even more beautiful 🤍. Thinking of you, Sammie, for all that you are going through. Just know, all of us here love you and always thinking of you 🤍. I’m so sorry your views went down without DT crafting and although I absolutely love the DT crafts, I would watch you doing ANY crafting. You truly are my favorite DIYer! And I love the DIY paints that I have purchased from you ❤
I’m so excited to get the IOD email that refers us to creators who are featuring the new Spring collection! And there you are!❤ you are one of my top go-to subscriptions and this is a great assortment of your talent! Hang in there …you are loved!
Bless your heart! You've certainly had more than your fair share. You're such an inspiration in so many ways! Life is cyclical. Things will turn around soon. Have faith. ❤️🙏
Sammie, my heart is with you. I love the direction you are taking with your crafts! I think we all start with the DT a crafts but as we get more creative we want to expand our abilities. You are so inspiring to me with your courage and creativity. Don’t stop following your dreams!
I am sorry you are going through so much...I love your thrift flips. There are plenty of channels for DT if people want that. Your channel is unique and awesome so hang in there.
I have tbh, there are only TWO people that I will watch do Dollar Tree videos and YOU are one of them ❤ I too started out doing Dollar Tree crafts and have pivoted to more handmade or thrift flip type projects. So, I totally get it except that it doesn't affect my income. That's where we're different... I do have a question and suggestion at the same time. First of all, I KNOW you are already spread thin, but is there any way that you can pivot and move things around to where you can fit in ONE What Not Auction per week (maybe combine your thrift haul and What Not Auction as one and stream on RUclips and What Not?) People make a killing on there and I've seen Bri rake in bids at crazy prices for things as simple as vegetable/flower seeds she got for free at Dollar General and hymnal pages torn from a hymnal book, wrapped in twine, with an added sprig of floral. I'm NOT saying anything negative about that... In fact, I praise her and try to show up/buy from her atleast once a month and your followers would do the SAME thing. If you haven't watched any of Bri's auctions or other vintage home decor sellers, just go take a look. It is fun and addicting as a buyer to the point that I've set up a seller account and plan to destash my craft stash and sell things I've made along with things I've thrifted. Just an idea! Hope things are better and you are on the upswing. I'm always here if you need to talk and ❤ everything you put up on your channel ❤❤❤
Oh my God Sammy I am so sorry that you are going through some tough times. I love your channel. I’ve been with you since the beginning please don’t give up you’ll get through as far as I am concerned, I love everything you have done from dollar stores to flips to watching you with your children everything you’ll get through this I have faith in you keep up the good work, and always remember all of us are with you no matter what thank you again for sharing your thoughts and your ups and downs
I loved all of these flips! Especially, the crock! I just wanted to say thank you for all that you do. I personally admire you because I couldn’t do what you do! Keep that family close and well!
Sammie bless you all so glad Everett is on the mend. So hard when your baby is sick. I just pray RUclips picks up. I will follow you anywhere. I started watching you when you were making wooden round signs and loved you right from the get go. Sorry you Lost some viewers. We all here love you!!! I know you will figure it out. 🫶🫶🫶
Sorry you are going through all of this. I LOVE your channel and I am glad you don't do DT stuff anymore, there are so many other people that do that. I LOVE the thrift flips, I save almost all of them. You give all of us so much inspiration, it is much appreciated. Take care ❤❤❤
Sammie I love your channel. It’s one of my favorites. When you went into a different direction I loved your channel that much more. You had the best dollar tree crafts and then you upped your game! You evolved and this is what a true artist does. Always learning, always willing to try new things and be a better teacher to all us subscribers ! I’ve learned so much from you! Do what makes you happy period. My thoughts are with you as you grieve the one year anniversary of your brother. Give yourself grace girlie! You are beautiful inside and out.
I really enjoy your flips. These turned out awesome and I'm sure they'll sell now.. I'm sorry about the rough patch, but I know things will turn around. And I happy to hear Everett is feeling better. 🤗🤗🙏🙏👍👍💗💗
I love your new direction on your channel! It’s my favorite and has inspired me to change up my crafting style! Big hugs changes and anniversary dates can be emotional and that’s ok. Feel your feelings. It’s how we get through. ♥️♥️♥️
Ni Sammie, im so sorry tohear how sick Everett was ans I'm relieved he's ok now, you've had a hard year with lowest of lows and highest highs butt don't loose faith in your self hun you've got this, your a wonderful wife and mumma ,loving daughter and a very very talented lady who is and has always been honest, funny, daering,and always always inspiring, and which ever way you pivot your followers will pivot with you and for the ones that don't there will be others that will find you ,trust in what you do hun ,all the best Mary in Australia 🌻😊
Girly always here for you, and so glad Evert is doing good Thank God, and don't apologize for being a mom or morning the loss of your brother, I myself have been Mia, it's been a tough 2 weeks we also had a loss in the family so trust me I get it, & all the transformations are beautiful and just keep being you. & enjoy time with your dad. Tfs. God Bless You And Family Always ❤🙏. Big Thumbs Up 👍🥰🙏
So sorry for the loss of your brother my heart breaks for you. You have so much to look forward to, a new baby. This should be a happy time for you not stressful. So you do you and the rest of the world will follow. We all love you for who you are. Quirkiness and all, that's what's most special about you lol. Although I'm sure your kids don't feel the same JK. Like I said keep doing you and it'll work out in the end. Wish you all the best! How to edit sorry this is long. I will miss your Dollar tree crafts. Those are one of my favorite on this channel only because a lot of us that do watch RUclips don't have the capability to afford much higher end items so to be able to make them is nice. Have you thought about doing I know it's a lot but one video of Dollar tree and then one of your thrift flips? Cuz I do know you do two videos a week. Just putting it out there is a suggestion. Xoxoxo
Sammie hope things will get better❤❤❤ You are such a good person and your videos are always so inspiring and helpful. I know other content creators who are having issues with RUclips but hope you don't get too discouraged.
Sammie, I think it’s only natural that over time your content has changed. You are growing as an artist and that’s being reflected in your makes. Otherwise you risk stagnating and be coming stale. Plus let’s be honest, a lot of Dollar Tree’s stuff is the same year in year out. The colours, patterns & shapes may change for each season every year with the only the occasional new product. But a plaque is still a plaque at the end of the day and there’s only so many ways to create with it before it becomes slightly repetitive. It’s all just variations on a theme. Dollar Tree will always be useful for craft supplies but your skills & creativity have outgrown it. You need to stay inspired and fresh in order to continue creating. Personally I really enjoy following your journey and seeing how it progresses. And it is a big reason I continue to watch your videos. Stay strong, trust & believe in yourself. This could simply be a temporary blip in viewers as one audience stay behind and another starts to grow or a natural transition from one side of your business to another. Whatever it is change is always uncertain but I have no doubts you’ll come through it stronger than ever. In the meantime, enjoy what you’re doing and take care of yourself. I for one will still be here following along.
Sammy, I just want you to know you are so talented with a wonderful personality I've enjoyed watching you since you began your channel, in my prayers!!!
So sorry you are going through all this right now. I am trying to get a business off the ground and watching your videos has taught me a lot. I am great full i found your channel. I am glad you don't do a lot of dollar tree stuff. I prefer sourcing from thrift stores and yard sales and auctions. I think the items are more high end when they are finished. Thanks again for all you do.
I can relate to so much of what you said and as always thank you for being you! I’ve grown and changed completely in my crafting with you the last 2 plus years and I love this journey we’re on. I too have been hitting some blocks and rough bumps but as my mom always said things never stay the same forever. Keep growing keep slaying! ❤
Hi I’m so sorry I was a little concerned you were quiet on u tube so pleased your little one is better there’s always light at the end of the Tunnel and you will get there please take care and don’t get discouraged were go along with you love from U K ❤😊😊
Sammie, know that you are incredible and I have and will continue to learn so much from you. Your sweet nature and kindness comes through on all you videos and it is why we all are here to support you. 💕💕💕 I know only good things are on the horizon for you and your family.
Sammie just being pregnant is enough, let alone going through grief and your child, being really sick. My daughter had gotten strep throat and also got a rash and high fever. I never knew that strep throat could cause so many problems. I am happy to hear Everette is better now. Do not doubt yourself. You are doing great. I do not think it is anything you are doing or not doing. I loved all the items that you flipped. My favorite was the book stand. Stay positive. With so much going on it is hard to stay inspired. We all go through it. Have a great rest of the weekend and relax.
You poor woman! You're going through a lot! I'm so sorry and sending you lots of prayers and hugs!!! ❤❤ Also, I wanted to tell you that RUclips is going through and unsubscribing people from channels we've been subscribed to for years!!! I had to start checking my subscriptions! I was unsubscribed from your channel too!!! I had to resubscribe! It wasn'tjust your channel!
I, personally, like the fact you are NOT doing Dollar Tree DIY’s. They get redundant, at best. You do what you feel the best doing. Good luck.
Sammie. Please hang strong. You are such a good teacher when it comes to crafting. You are a true artist and I know you will be doing great things. You have a special talent and God will help you use it in many different ways. I love your channel and enjoy ALL you work. So sorry things have been tough for you lately. But I am happy Everette is feeling better. Love you Nana Brenda

Love the flips you do with your finds. Don’t let a few people discourage you from doing what you love ❤️
Keep in mind that some people who make others feel bad just so they they feel better.
I absolutely looooove your channel and look forward to every episode!! Don't be discouraged! You are doing a great job! RUclips is horrible about changing the goalpost - it's irritating! You are in my prayers. God bless you and your beautiful family!
Sweet Sammie, you’re a warrior! That was a lot to deal with. Hugs from me to you ♥️♥️

I’m so excited to get the IOD email that refers us to creators who are featuring the new Spring collection! And there you are!❤ you are one of my top go-to subscriptions and this is a great assortment of your talent! Hang in there …you are loved!
Bless your heart! You've certainly had more than your fair share. You're such an inspiration in so many ways! Life is cyclical. Things will turn around soon. Have faith. ❤️🙏
Sammie, my heart is with you. I love the direction you are taking with your crafts! I think we all start with the DT a crafts but as we get more creative we want to expand our abilities. You are so inspiring to me with your courage and creativity. Don’t stop following your dreams!
Love the shoe molds! Sorry for all your family has gone through…prayers with you. I love your RUclips channel…keep doing you!
Hang in there girl! Remember all things happen for a reason, better day's are coming!! Have faith in yourself!!
Sammie, I love your thrift flips & you teach well how to do them. The crock was amazing & the hymnal...WOW...so pretty. ❤😊
I am sorry you are going through so much...I love your thrift flips. There are plenty of channels for DT if people want that. Your channel is unique and awesome so hang in there.
Sammy, I will follow and watch you no matter where the path leads you!
Sammie I love watching your videos, continue doing what you’re doing! So glad your son is feeling better, take care!❤
I have tbh, there are only TWO people that I will watch do Dollar Tree videos and YOU are one of them ❤ I too started out doing Dollar Tree crafts and have pivoted to more handmade or thrift flip type projects. So, I totally get it except that it doesn't affect my income. That's where we're different... I do have a question and suggestion at the same time. First of all, I KNOW you are already spread thin, but is there any way that you can pivot and move things around to where you can fit in ONE What Not Auction per week (maybe combine your thrift haul and What Not Auction as one and stream on RUclips and What Not?) People make a killing on there and I've seen Bri rake in bids at crazy prices for things as simple as vegetable/flower seeds she got for free at Dollar General and hymnal pages torn from a hymnal book, wrapped in twine, with an added sprig of floral. I'm NOT saying anything negative about that... In fact, I praise her and try to show up/buy from her atleast once a month and your followers would do the SAME thing. If you haven't watched any of Bri's auctions or other vintage home decor sellers, just go take a look. It is fun and addicting as a buyer to the point that I've set up a seller account and plan to destash my craft stash and sell things I've made along with things I've thrifted. Just an idea! Hope things are better and you are on the upswing. I'm always here if you need to talk and ❤ everything you put up on your channel ❤❤❤
Oh my God Sammy I am so sorry that you are going through some tough times. I love your channel. I’ve been with you since the beginning please don’t give up you’ll get through as far as I am concerned, I love everything you have done from dollar stores to flips to watching you with your children everything you’ll get through this I have faith in you keep up the good work, and always remember all of us are with you no matter what thank you again for sharing your thoughts and your ups and downs
I love the new trend of your channel! It's totally my vibe and I get so many great ideas from you. I hope your life becomes much less stressful soon!
Hang in. Your work will bring viewers back
Sammie, I love all the DIY's do. They are so awesome. Just keep going. I know it's sometimes very difficult.
I loved all of these flips! Especially, the crock! I just wanted to say thank you for all that you do. I personally admire you because I couldn’t do what you do! Keep that family close and well!
Sammie bless you all so glad Everett is on the mend. So hard when your baby is sick. I just pray RUclips picks up. I will follow you anywhere. I started watching you when you were making wooden round signs and loved you right from the get go. Sorry you

I still love DT projects, if they are well done. I love thrift makeovers best though and everything you do is top notch!
I liked all the flips. The book holder looked great with the white bring out the details of the leaves and ferns❤
Sammie I love your channel. It’s one of my favorites. When you went into a different direction I loved your channel that much more. You had the best dollar tree crafts and then you upped your game! You evolved and this is what a true artist does. Always learning, always willing to try new things and be a better teacher to all us subscribers ! I’ve learned so much from you! Do what makes you happy period. My thoughts are with you as you grieve the one year anniversary of your brother. Give yourself grace girlie! You are beautiful inside and out.
Always here for you. You do you Sammie. Love to you and your family.
I Thank You for sharing your creativity! Being a stay at home Mom is a busy person, plus doing these videos. I think you do Great, Thank You !

I really enjoy your flips. These turned out awesome and I'm sure they'll sell now.. I'm sorry about the rough patch, but I know things will turn around. And I happy to hear Everett is feeling better. 🤗🤗🙏🙏👍👍💗💗

Girly always here for you, and so glad Evert is doing good Thank God, and don't apologize for being a mom or morning the loss of your brother, I myself have been Mia, it's been a tough 2 weeks we also had a loss in the family so trust me I get it, & all the transformations are beautiful and just keep being you. & enjoy time with your dad. Tfs. God Bless You And Family Always ❤🙏. Big Thumbs Up 👍🥰🙏
So sorry for the loss of your brother my heart breaks for you. You have so much to look forward to, a new baby. This should be a happy time for you not stressful. So you do you and the rest of the world will follow. We all love you for who you are. Quirkiness and all, that's what's most special about you lol. Although I'm sure your kids don't feel the same JK. Like I said keep doing you and it'll work out in the end. Wish you all the best! How to edit sorry this is long. I will miss your Dollar tree crafts. Those are one of my favorite on this channel only because a lot of us that do watch RUclips don't have the capability to afford much higher end items so to be able to make them is nice. Have you thought about doing I know it's a lot but one video of Dollar tree and then one of your thrift flips? Cuz I do know you do two videos a week. Just putting it out there is a suggestion. Xoxoxo
Sammie hope things will get better❤❤❤ You are such a good person and your videos are always so inspiring and helpful. I know other content creators who are having issues with RUclips but hope you don't get too discouraged.
So sorry for all your troubles! Please don’t be discouraged, your videos are great ❤
Sammy you are very good don't be discouraged I love your channel keep it up girl
I love the whitewash on the metal book shelf.
You did such a wonderful job up cycle! Thanks for all the great ideas! Terri
Sammie, I think it’s only natural that over time your content has changed. You are growing as an artist and that’s being reflected in your makes. Otherwise you risk stagnating and be coming stale.
Plus let’s be honest, a lot of Dollar Tree’s stuff is the same year in year out. The colours, patterns & shapes may change for each season every year with the only the occasional new product. But a plaque is still a plaque at the end of the day and there’s only so many ways to create with it before it becomes slightly repetitive. It’s all just variations on a theme.
Dollar Tree will always be useful for craft supplies but your skills & creativity have outgrown it. You need to stay inspired and fresh in order to continue creating. Personally I really enjoy following your journey and seeing how it progresses. And it is a big reason I continue to watch your videos.
Stay strong, trust & believe in yourself. This could simply be a temporary blip in viewers as one audience stay behind and another starts to grow or a natural transition from one side of your business to another. Whatever it is change is always uncertain but I have no doubts you’ll come through it stronger than ever. In the meantime, enjoy what you’re doing and take care of yourself. I for one will still be here following along.
I've watched you for years, you are fantastic!!!
Sammy, I just want you to know you are so talented with a wonderful personality I've enjoyed watching you since you began your channel, in my prayers!!!
Im very happy that you do thrift flips now
I LOVE the jug!! That would go great with my collection!
So sorry you are going through all this right now. I am trying to get a business off the ground and watching your videos has taught me a lot. I am great full i found your channel. I am glad you don't do a lot of dollar tree stuff. I prefer sourcing from thrift stores and yard sales and auctions. I think the items are more high end when they are finished. Thanks again for all you do.
I can relate to so much of what you said and as always thank you for being you! I’ve grown and changed completely in my crafting with you the last 2 plus years and I love this journey we’re on. I too have been hitting some blocks and rough bumps but as my mom always said things never stay the same forever. Keep growing keep slaying! ❤
Hi I’m so sorry I was a little concerned you were quiet on u tube so pleased your little one is better there’s always light at the end of the Tunnel and you will get there please take care and don’t get discouraged were go along with you love from U K ❤😊😊
Sammie, know that you are incredible and I have and will continue to learn so much from you. Your sweet nature and kindness comes through on all you videos and it is why we all are here to support you. 💕💕💕 I know only good things are on the horizon for you and your family.
Sending love and prayers to you and your family...God bless ❤️🙏🏻
Hi Hank!!!!! They all turned out awesome!!!!!
KEEP GOING SAMMIE!!! Ride the wave low or high🥰
Thanks Sammie for all you do!
Sammie just being pregnant is enough, let alone going through grief and your child, being really sick. My daughter had gotten strep throat and also got a rash and high fever. I never knew that strep throat could cause so many problems. I am happy to hear Everette is better now. Do not doubt yourself. You are doing great. I do not think it is anything you are doing or not doing. I loved all the items that you flipped. My favorite was the book stand. Stay positive. With so much going on it is hard to stay inspired. We all go through it. Have a great rest of the weekend and relax.
❤ I love watching your upcycles! You do such a great job. You have inspired me many times! ❤
Awe Sammie my deepest condolences about your brother ❤
I love your channel, i love the variety of projects. You make and encourage me to think out of my box. Thank you
I like what you did with these. I love the wings
You are so talented and creative. I love your thrift flips. Keep up the good work!❤️
You poor woman! You're going through a lot! I'm so sorry and sending you lots of prayers and hugs!!! ❤❤
