    Two beautiful people have been invited into my home for the last 25 days. I laugh with you, I cry with you, I learn from you. Then I create, (but not nearly as well as you) How generous to share yourself and your art with me and the many others out there who also watch. My words cannot thank you enough. You don’t realize how much you touch my heart and how I’ve loved having you “here” in my home.

    The actual "prize" for us is the 50 videos that have inspired us, taught us, and made us cry. I am sad that it's over, but will be rewatching them, taking notes, and doing my own soon. THANK YOU FOR THE FREEBIES AND DISCOUNT CODES!!!!!

    What a gift you have given us. I dont have a big family and so Christmas is not the best time of the year for me, no happy faces around the Christmas tree, but now I have two amazing, creative and generous friends I see every day in December. You may not realise it but the lead up to Christmas is the very best time of the year to do this - opening each video is like a youtube advent calendar, a fabulous distraction from the outside world and a buffer against lonliness. I cant thank you enough for the joy this has brought me and clearly so many other people. You two give me faith in the inner goodness and generosity of people. I do hope you will consider doing it again, it is building so much love and joy in a troubled world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart

    This series has been so wonderful and inspirational for me. You can not improve perfection. Every day I have asked my dog if she's ready to watch DEPHEMEREMBER that she now knows the word. 😆. The only way to improve this is by taking some time off and preparing for Januarephemerember!!! 😂. 💜💜 💜! You are my favorite!

    The words you shared with us with each step of this project brings happiness and tears of joy; goodness... how wonderful and nice of you to share them with us. Thank you so much. If you've ever heard the words... "April showers bring May flowers"... well, sometimes tears bring and result in much happiness. I like the words you used because they remind me of the words you spoke about Dephemerember and Barbara... it started with love, you were always thinking of her, you were both following your heart, and I think y'all and your followers loved everything. Very nice indeed.

    Oh My Stars ❤ I have loved watching both of you make your version of each prompt ♥ You both are so talented and amaze me each time... I have created when I could, just watched and learned when I just felt frozen, I've giggled and cried and even splattered gold and white paint on my own creations ❤ I'd give anything to meet you both. You'll never know just how much love and respect we all have for the both of you....THANK YOU❣❣❣❣❣

    I am feeling sad that this is the last day of dephemerember but a big thank you from the bottom of my heart. I looked forward every day to see what you were going to create from your prompt list. It was very inspiring, and so much fun. I had many daily laughs and cried with you. I learned so much. You are a joy and a blessing for all of us. It’s A lot of work to do daily videos. Every day you created gorgeous pieces of artwork for your stunning journal. Thank you for sharing your talents. I loved your daily gorgeous paper bags.

    Your video today is the best part of my day. I've saved every video from you and 49dragonflies to create with you when I have some more supplies. I'm just starting my journey into junk journals and your creativity, along with Barbara's, is so very inspiring! I love love love that little frog!

    I discovered junk journalling during lockdown...I had never even heard of the word 'ephemera' . It is now a word I use daily! My 8 year old granddaughter made a junk journal advent calendar for her mum and my partner's daughter brought me beautiful ephemera from China where she is living. The junk journal love is spreading in my family and it is a wonderful thing! Your love for the art is inspirational and your humour and philosophical thought whilst delivering your videos makes them so interesting to watch. I am 52 years old and have been so excited to get home from work and watch your videos . Roll on Dephemerember 2023!! ❤️🥰

    Dephemerember has been so fun this year❤❤ I love watching your and Barbra's videos. Thank you so much for all of the inspiration! I love that you swapped journals this year, but I also liked seeing you make a journal last year. I would love to have some more specific/challenging prompts (maybe limitations) and I liked that you had a theme this year. Maybe next year you can do a flower theme and have a new flower everyday or something along those lines. You are so inspiring and creative Luise. I thank you from the heart for every video that you have made. Thank you for sharing your creativity and passion. This has been so wonderful!! Thank you so much!

    I can't believe how fast 25 days can go Luise, what an enjoyable challenge. Thank you so much to you and Barbara for hosting an amazing challenge. I first found your channel about a year ago and was hooked, absolutely love your style, your creativity, your experimental sense of adventure. I love the way you created your continent of Dephemerember and am proud to be a Dephemerembian. Because of you I have learnt so much, I'm much braver than I used to be. You have such a wonderful presence, many people have said it is like crafting with a friend when watching one of your videos, I wholeheartedly agree. You bought me to tears in video 24 and made me laugh in many more, you are definitely 'in my alley'. Thank you so much, can't wait to see you in the New Year, Merry Christmas. Much love and admiration from Queensland, Australia. xxx

    Because if this series that I found by accident, I am making my first junk journal. I never understood what their value was until I have heard the stories of you and Barbara's hearts as you go through the creative process. Today the story of the formation of the continent, I actually felt like one of those little pieces of rice. I have gone back and am learning from your past videos how to select my paper and making my signatures. I will replay all of these again in Jan as I start filling my journal with Dephemerember inspired creations. Please, I know this is a tremendous amount of work, but there just has to be a new series in 2023. The theme could be flowers, ocean creatures, or famous landmarks around the world. TY and Merry Christmas from Florida.

Two beautiful souls making such beautiful art!

    I have loved these 25 days of Dephemerember. You and Barbara have made these days so special with all your creativity. Your journals and all your ephemera that you have made is truly beautiful. I appreciated getting to know you a little bit better also. I crave a friendship like you and Barbara have. You have given me so many great ideas to follow. I would love it if you could do another 25 days of ephemera making say every 6 months. Thank you so very much for all the work that you put into making these 25 days of Dephemerember so wonderful. You and Barbara made it so much fun and creative.

    Gorgeous , idea. A metaphor for the continent of dephemerember is such a unifying idea and really expresses the bonding that brings us together from all over the world. You both especially you Luise have shown and told us about who you are and some of your deepest, most personal times of overcoming suffering and then finding inspiration, solice in creating beautiful journals. A journal has a mystical, magical essence of the people who make them. I have given many journals away as special gifts for women to find themselves. I am sure many of us, your subscribers, feel like we ate close friends. I certainly do as I watch you both almost every day. I do want you to continue dephemerember next year. I think it teaches, inspires, and unites so many women in the world. I think a botanical theme using natural elements like flax, leaves, twigs, small pebbles, seeds etc combined with mythical creatures, fairies imagined animals dragons, imagined plants etc would be so much fun. As always I love who you are and what you and Barbara do together in your beautiful friendship. Your honoring of each other makes me feel I am living in the heart of a continent built on love, acceptance and trust. Arohanui from me in Aotearoa New Zealand. Ka kiti ano. (I will see you again)

    What fun this has been! Especially since December can always be a bit hectic. You always provided a little corner in the world to relax and have a good laugh. That tinned fish was an accomplishment of true paper engineering! So fun! And I like the dear friendship between you and Barbara. Very heartfelt.
    The snacks...yes! All of it. I wouldn't change a thing! ❤

    Dear Luise, there was so much content to enjoy during this series of videos. From your making of each other’s journals, to your unboxing ones and then the daily uploads - two of them!! How spoilt and entertained we have been. I wouldn’t change a single thing. We have learnt many new techniques and even shared your own personal, heartbreaking story that has brought you here to us.
    Thank you.
    Thank you for taking the time to make and upload the videos - two/zwei every day!
    Thank you for sharing your ideas.
    Thank you for the freebies.

Joining you everyday has been such a welcome distraction. I love the things I was inspired to create and can’t wait to create a journal to keep them in. Thank you so much for all the work you have put into this. I can barely wait for next year! Please include another fun element next year like the animals were this year.

Ich danke euch für diese 50 wundervollen Geschenke in form eurer Videos, Inspirationen, die man sich ab jetzt so oft anschauen kann, wie man möchte. Ich glaube nur ihr beide wisst wirklich, wie viel harte Arbeit und wie viel Zeit in diesem Videos und diesen Vorbereitungen steckt-zumal nebenbei noch das "normale" Leben mit all seinen Höhen und Tiefen zu meistern hat. ich bin dafür unglaublich dankbar, dass ihr euch wieder mal die Mühe gemacht habt!! Für mich persönlich gibt es keinen Kritikpunkt🙃 ich könnte auch täglich fünf Videos von euch sehen.

I am proud to live on the Dephemerember continent [even if I have not posted my work yet] and to see the amazing work of so many other artists. So inspiring. I know how much work you and Barbara put in to creating all your videos ,however would love it if there could be a Dephemerember 2023

  • @dorishöseler
    @dorishöseler Год назад

    Danke Luise und Barbara für Dephemerember 2022! Diese Serie ist großartig, und das gleich aus mehreren Gründen. Zum einen ist es immer ein Genuss eure Videos anzuschauen, eure Ideen und die kreativen Ergebnisse zu bestaunen, und deine Reaktionen auf die Snacks, Luise, einfach köstlich! Dann die Freebies, schon die Tierbilder sind der Hammer, und die ganzen anderen Freebies , das ist so toll.
    Aber das allerbeste an Dephemerember ist: Ihr holt mich aus meiner Komfortzone heraus. Ihr bringt mich dazu Dinge zu tun, die ich noch nie gemacht habe, Materialien oder Sachen zu verwenden, die ich noch nie gebraucht habe oder die seit Ewigkeiten in der Schublade liegen. Ihr gebt mir die Anschubser, auch mal gewohnte Pfade zu verlassen und in eine andere Richtung zu denken. Deshalb ist diese Aktion so genial!
    Nochmal ein fettes DANKESCHÖN an euch beide. LG Doris

    Luise, this series has been so inspirational in so many ways. Your creative genius, your child like spirit and your vulnerability have been absolutely refreshing! It’s just magical when you create from a prompt; a sparked idea becoming a reality. For many of us, crafting is our therapy. This series came during a time of family loss, but made each day a joy. If I would change anything, maybe the treats didn’t need a ranking, since “feelings” may have been hurt. Although, I had the same thoughts about the US treats. ;-) Happy Crafting,

    Hello Luise- I would like to thank you and also give feedback as requested. I love this series, and I appreciate how much creative energy, work, and time you have shared with all of us not only for the 25 days, but for all the months leading up to it. I know it is a labor of love for you, and this series is also part of your creative business, but your generosity of creating something so special for so many of us is truly appreciated. THANK YOU. As for feedback: I love the back and forth between you and Barbara, seeing your friendship, seeing how you both interpret things differently, and how unique you both are. I enjoyed the addition of the "snack" ... it was fun and a bit silly at times, which we all need in our lives. I appreciated the structure you put into. the series prior to it staring and the freebie cards were very helpful for planning prior to is starting. I love seeing other people in the Dephemerember playlist and feel like this program is a great opportunity to meet new friends and expose ourselves to new Artists. There are SOOOO many good things about this program!!! I love that it isn't Christmas themed, it makes me feel like I can catch up after the holiday and allows people to work on their prompts all year long if they want to. I only have ONE thing that didn't work for me... I will leave it in a comment under this comment so that it isn't the main focus and the positivity can sit here and been seen!!!

      Ok... now my one constructive criticism...which I will explain, but I believe may just be an issue because I’m also someone with a channel, & I wanted to participate as much as I could - but along with doing the prompt I had a video to create and edit to think about. Because there was a surprise element every day and videos were released at noon my time, it made it hard to do the prompts as presented and stay ahead with videos. I would have made more videos if I had known the animals ahead time for the chosen days. I know I could have picked any animal each day, but I really have fun working with the same exact prompts you and Barbara work with, and by the time an animal was presented it was afternoon my time and I know I wouldn't be able to even start on the prompt until late in the day or the next morning and I would already be a day behind...so it made it hard to get ahead and I always felt behind this year. I realize that is totally my own issue... after all plenty of people made videos AND many people chose their animals as they wanted to... so I knew I had that option. For me, I love doing prompt challenges exactly as presented because I like to see how participants interpret the same prompt differently. Because so many people chose their now animals on their own days, it was hard sometimes to see the "apple to apple" interpretation and I lost that feeling unity, because we weren't always working with the same animals. I feel like the fun of not knowing lies in seeing what you and Barbara come up with, and comparing what I did without seeing yours, but I had to see your finished product before I started in order to know the animal. The timing was hard and the surprise element meant I couldn’t make 2 videos in a day or take advantage of free days to film. I realize that is a totally personal reaction and not your responsibility, you can't control how others react to something, but since you asked for feedback I thought I'd share why that was challenging.
      I sooooooo appreciate you allowing other channels to jump into the fun, but because December is SO busy for me and I bet for so many others, knowing the parts of the prompts a week or so ahead of time allows us to to make some videos ahead of time so we have a buffer in our lives to work on prompts and stay ahead of it for as long as we can. I think you know how long it takes to film and edit a video, so if we are already starting our daily prompt late, then it's hard to make a video. The first three videos I edited over night ...staying up until 2 am in order to release the video the next day. AGAIN I recognize that is something that was my choice.... and there was the option to just pick my own animal... or do a recap or something else...but since it was December it was just too overwhelming for me to figure out how to make it work.
      So that's my only bit of feedback... I would LOVE if the prompts were released ahead of time and all the elements were known ahead of time so people like myself who want to join in on a channel had time to also put content up, had a bit of time to work prior to the day on our own individual schedules and keep up. I'm not sure if this was an issue for anyone else, maybe it was just me.
      I guess my suggestion might be... if you want more content creators to create using your program, perhaps you could allow us to "apply" ahead of time and let us in on all the details & that will allow us to stay ahead of the game. Like a Dephemerember "design team". If I wasn't trying to participate as a channel, this wouldn't be an issue at all because I could create the prompt and be done everyday. Or I could just decide to watch instead of doing the prompt. Both are enjoyable and valuable in their own right, it's only because I would love to join in as much as possible as a channel that this became a concern.
      This comment does not TAKE AWAY anything from how wonderful DEPHEMEREMBER is, but since you asked I thought it might be helpful. much love. xo

    This month has been the most crafting I’ve done with the least amount of time I’ve had. Y’all have given me so many new ideas and I’ve been able to use up a bunch of my hibernating supplies. Thank you so much for all the hard work, time and energy that you both put into it. I wish I had something to contribute to improvements, but I found it was wonderful as it was 🥰

    I let Barbara know that I was so happy that you two got together and started collaborating on projects and Dephemerember. I have enjoyed watching your processes on making the ephemera and your stories to go with them. Also the journals you made each other were spot on and fit to a t showcasing your esthetics. Hard to believe it is over already have been having so much fun viewing you and Barbara. Still laugh when I remember the funny faces you and she made when you ate some of the candies. Seems like both of you like sour. Thought all you both did was truly fantastic. Looking forward to next year's Dephemermber. Thanks for sharing your talent. Take care stay safe

    Luise, this has been an absolutely wonderful series. I have laughed with you and cried with you through this series. I can’t think of anything that could improve Dephemerember. The only sad thing about it is that today is the last day. You are an amazing artist. Merry Christmas!
    I just came back and edited my comment. I think it would be interesting for you to do a podcast with Barbara and discuss how you felt about doing Dephemerember. For instance, what was your favorite prompt, what prompt you found most challenging and what you felt about each other’s projects, etc.

    I loved everything about Dephemerember. I hope you do continue to do it again next December. I have to tell you, you are so creative in using the promps for each day. I have learned so much, and it always made my day to wake up to see what you created. I loved the snacks, they were wonderful to watch your reactions to each snack. Some of them did look very good, and some I am not sure if I would like. You and Barbara made this December wonderful for everyone :) Thank you again.

I love your style, your creativity and your sensitivity! You and Barbara are just amazing and your friendship is heart-warming! You both had me crying with your tributes to each other the past few days. I couldn't comment on yesterday's video because I was crying and much too emotional as you were telling your story. I wish you all the best, lots of love to you and Barbara. I know that you realize how many of us love your work and not just your work, but you as well. Take a well deserved break and I'll be looking forward to seeing you again soon. Rose

    Dear Luise, I love that I think “what is she doing?” every time you create something new! And without fail at the end your twists and turns make a wonderful project. I love the freebies because we can craft along with you. We may not be able to do a large canvas or a whole journal, but the ephemera projects are doable. The animals were a cute addition this year, too. Hope your new year is marvelous!

    Liebe, liebe Luise! 1000 Dank Euch beiden für all die vielen Ideen und Techniken und Snacks und Verzweiflungsschreie und Geistesblitze und fantastischen Werke! Ich liebe es, Dir beim "Matschen" zuzusehen, und: ich liebe es, wenn Du beim Basteln eine Geschichte dazu erzählst. Das macht alles so locker und leicht und lässt das Video im Kopf bleiben.
    In der Rückschau bin ich noch mal begeistert, wie Ihr für jeden Tag eine Ephemera-Art kombiniert habt mit einer Material- oder Technik-Art. Wilde Kombinationen waren dabei! Ich kann mir kaum vorstellen, WIE viel Arbeit diese täglich 2 Videos gemacht haben, aber trotzdem würde ich mich riesig freuen, wenn es nächstes Jahr eine Wiederaufnahme dieses tollen Konzepts gäbe. Aber jetzt ruh Dich erstmal aus und komm gut rüber ins neue Jahr.

    One of the best parts of this year's Dephemerember series was the gorgeous journals you both made. The bags were of course amazing and the snacks were so much fun - your face is so expressive. Made me laugh out loud so many times. I hope you do this again next year but I don't have any idea how you could top the past 2 years. I have loved every minute. It's so special to see you work and hear your thoughts as you go. Merry Christmas and take a nice long nap to refresh for 2023.

    As I commented on Barbara's site, I am a teacher. Today's challenge in particular was a perfect match for the content and philosophy of my 4th-grade classroom. Our motto ? "Make stuff and make stuff happen."
    The current "real feel" here is a bitterly cold two degrees, but I am warmed by the generosity and creativity of Dephemerember.
    I am most grateful.
    Looking forward to an annual tradition.....

    Thank you very much for this amazing challenge. It's my second year doing Dephemerember and I am planning on doing it next year if you keep going! Your friendship is heartwarming and your creativity inspiring. ❤️ One thing for me is that because the animals were not numbered (except if I missed that) I had a wait for the videos to be posted to see if yes or no I wanted to integrate them. Living in the US, I spent my mornings 'waiting' and then I had to craft late at night because I didn't find time in the afternoon. Last year, some videos were posted earlier and so I could start my day watching them and pondering about the daily prompts and often crafted in the morning. This is just my experience and I know that it is a lot of work for you both, especially you Luise with two videos!!! Thank you very much for creating Dephemerember, I'm looking forward to it now!

    Hello Luise and Barbara
    I have enjoyed watching Dephemerember with you both.
    Thank you for asking for feedback Luise because whilst it is nice and ‘fluffy’ to receive positive glowing feedback - critical feedback is like gold because it is much harder to get. (Honest critical feedback)
    I thought the snack component was silly. And I fast forwarded every one. When Barbara had her advent calendar of gummi bears it was short, whimsical and it was organic. It was something she did which she shared. It was not a ‘manufactured’ element of Dephemerember.
    I am Australian - maybe this is why I am the way I am. Not fluffy. Just straight to it. With no Messing around. So .. often Dephemerember intro talk went on. And on. And after 10 or 15 minutes the content started.
    Don’t forget also, as you say Barbara, most of your followers are from USA and whilst you don’t celebrate Christmas, they do. Luise didn’t even end her 25/12 video with a merry Christmas!
    Always remember who your audience is.
    Great work guys. Luise your art is astounding and next level.
    Merry Christmas 😉
    I hope you appreciate this feedback. It is honest from me to you. On another note the wor

    First of all you said you both wanted to give us something. What you probably don't realize is that every video you have made for this series is a gift for all of us. 25 plus gifts X 2 = 50 gifts plus all the discounts and freebees. Loved every minute of each video. Words do not cover my gratitude for you two wonderful women. Like the pile of RICE, you have touched so many lives. I can only think of one thing bad about dephemerember......it ends! Every other part is amazing. One idea I had for next year is to maybe let your viewers send ideas in for the Prompt List and theme. Then you could put them in a bowl. Pull two out at a time and put them together. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Now that I have seen everything you offered in your stores, I going to do some shopping tomorrow! :)

    Please excuse my copy/paste of my thoughts on Dephemerberemer. I wanted to share the same thanks with both you and Barbara. Thank you so much for Dephemberember!!! I've enjoyed this series so much. I need to go back though to get the discount codes and go shopping! You and Barbara just went so above and beyond it's hard to express my gratitude. I enjoyed everything. I learned new things, like the origin of the ATCs. I loved seeing Luise's reactions to the snack of the day. The stories and emotions shared were so heartfelt. The laughs, the creativity. I just don't have words. Thank you. Next year...I actually thought about this while I slept last night. Thinking back over Dephemberember, the love, the emotions shared were so real. You two took a chance on us - friends who live in your electronic devices. My suggestion for next year would be "Sentimental Dephemerberemera" The prompts would be text...a word, a quotation, an emotion. When we consider the act of journaling, we do get on paper what is in our heart and head. Maybe you could use something like that as the foundation for the daily prompts. I loved the animals. I felt that was helpful for your creative plan. I love having this in December. It's a busy time for me even without children or family. Dephemeberember was a reason to sit down each evening and take time for myself and see your wonderful creations. Again, many many thanks. Have a healthy New Year. As a friend shared yesterday at breakfast, when we are healthy spiritually, emotionally and psychologically we are healthy. You've helped me have a Healthy New Year!

    Here are my thoughts on Dephemerember 2022: I just started junk journaling, and found you just before
    Dephemerember started when you were showing the journals you made for each other. I couldn’t have picked a better time to start my absolute passion for junk journaling than with Dephemerember 2022! I loved watching how you both interpreted the prompts and learned so much from this process. I couldn’t wait to see your posts every day! My daughter would tease me at my excitement over watching you both. I hated waiting until 11 a.m. for your posts! Then, as an added bonus, you shared your personal stories with us and now I want to meet you both!! It was hysterical watching you taste the international snacks and I found myself laughing right along with you. I haven’t been able to create anything yet due to responsibilities but I finally have some free time and can’t wait to get to started!
    Thank you for sharing your talents and lives with us, I am forever grateful. I can’t find anything that I liked best because I’m just learning and liked all the techniques and your generous freebies and discounts. I hope you do Dephemerember 2023! Blessings to you both!

When you mentioned next year ideas, I had this crazy thought: could they use inspirational words/phrases (ie "dream"; "bloom"; "friendship"; "spread your wings"; "be brave" - the possibilities are endless) OR some of their favorite quotes as prompts!? Both of you are amazing, & I look forward to not only the next Dephemerember, but to everything you both will create & share with us throughout the new year!!! ❤❤❤
