      Hey there Cheryl...Awww, thank you so much girl...As always I don't pull any punches, I am who I am and I've got to love myself...NOT that I love being overweight, that's not what I mean, what I mean is that I embrace whatever size it am and do the best that I can. :) Thank you so much for your sweet words!!

    Hi Arlynn! I love your videos. It’s great to watch a down to earth lady that seems to have such common interest as myself. Your home is beautiful and it really inspires me to up my decorating game! Lol! I can’t believe how many videos that you have uploaded in the past year! You are one busy lady! I’m so glad I found your channel!

      Hey Sandra...I think I saw another comment from you asking where I got my capris and my cold shoulder tops? I'm not seeing it here currently, but, I'll answer here. :) Unfortunately, I do not see my capris at Avenue this season which is where I purchased them last year...keep an eye out on their site though as they are adding things daily. Here is a link to Dressbarn to one of my cold shoulder tops. :)

      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  6 лет назад

      Hey Barb!!! LOL, I know it right? I am ridiculously organized, I drive myself crazy sometime. LOL And yep, Christin bought both of us a set us cubes and each a garment folder, so Chris takes care of his own packing...he always has. :) I would do it for him, but, I'm okay that he does it himself...haha. :) Love you too sweet lady!!

    " Hi Arlynn thank you for all the tips for packing I think those packing cubes will be helpful. I purchase some the other day. I was trying to pack both my husband and myself in the 29" suitcase but that is not going to work for 12 days so glad to see that you both (husband and yourself) have a bag and a carry on. That's what I was planning on Scotland and Ireland are not that warm this time of year and we need layers. Thanks and take care :)

    • @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner
      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  6 лет назад

      Hey there Paula...Awww, you are so very welcome girl...and no, Chris and I could not do it with only one 29" spinner. I fully admit that I am not minimalists...well he is more than I am...hahaha. ;) I hear you about needing layers gf...and that sounds like a lovely trip that you have coming up next year. :) Thanks for watching!!

      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  5 лет назад

      Hi Tannie thank you so much girl!! I get most of my tops from Avenue.com. Also my skirts. Dressbarn used to be one of my go to stores but they will unfortunately be closing soon.

    Arlynn, I'm so sorry your sick, I've had sinus infections and they are no fun in fact they make me miserable. I do like to mix and match outfits and here's a cute story. We went on spring break one year and the pool was so full of kids there wasn't room for my big toe so I just sat on the edge and left my cover up on and my daughter said, mother take that cover up off and jump in you will never see these kids again. LOL! So now I don't care what people think. Just had to share. All sizes are beautiful. 👙😀

    • @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner
      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  6 лет назад +1

      Hey there Addie...Such a great story and a lesson to all of us girl who worry so much!!! Awesome!!! Thank you so much for your sweet words!!

  • @addie2532
    @addie2532 6 лет назад +1

    Hi Arlynn!!! This was a great video you did a fantastic job. It's amazing how you packed all those cubes. I'm exhausted just watching you pack. Do you ever wear the same outfit more than once. I thought I packed a lot but you have me beat. LOL!!I love your tops they are so pretty and colorful and look so comfortable. Arlynn, thank you for answering my question the other day, I watched your live chat until the end, I'm working on finding out how to join in. I'm looking forward to your next video. Have a blessed remainder of the day.

    • @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner
      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  6 лет назад +2

      Hey there Addie...OHHHHH whew, I'm so glad that you saw that I answered your questions...it has been a long weekend over here...I've really been fighting a sinus infection...blah. ANYway, there are times that I wear the same outfit twice...I tend to do that more in Alaska than for something like that Caribbean though because I can make the same outfit look a little different by wearing a different scarf. :) NOT that anyone is ever going to see me again...I do it for myself. :) Thank you so much for watching!!

  • @cindik8631
    @cindik8631 6 лет назад +2

    You, my dear friend, are an expert packer! I am stealing your ideas. You have cloned a mini Arlynn...not in the creepy way..in a good way. Your organization skills are amazing. And...listen...you looked great in every single outfit! Even with green springy things coming out of your head, you looked put together and lovely. You and Chris make a really handsome couple! Sometimes I wish I had a couple inches on this 5’ 1 1/2” body of mine....I can’t wear long dresses and struggle with patterned tops...capris are ankle pants and ankle pants are regular pants. Lol. Guess I can’t help genes, now can I? Thanks for another great video.

    • @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner
      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  6 лет назад

    I love to watch your videos. You have great taste in everything. I am concerned about packing medications in checked luggage, I always carry medication in carry on or in my purse. My brother in law had a good idea he and is wife have one or 2 outfits in each other's bag in case one suit case gets lost. Just some things to think about.

    • @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner
      @ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner  6 лет назад

      Hi Valerie, aww thank you so very much girl. I'm with you about medications...well prescription meds anyway, they always go in our carry-on bags. I do pack Tylenol, Advil, and the like in my checked luggage. :) Great idea about putting outfits in each other's bag!! :)

You are uplifting,stated you have good standards (important to me) present yourself in a positive and organized manner. Conduct your chanel professionally. We don't just see your hands crafting you make excellent use of your camera positioning. You and your surroundings are pleasant and appealing. I like the use of grafic posts. You are welcoming and informative. You don't appear prideful or vain the opposite demonstrates it's self with the inthuassium you display. I am looking ford to watching and learning. I am on my husbands chanel . I am really wife Vickie.

      Arlynn's Country Craft Corner Hello Arlynn, I just finished watching your latest "shopping haul" and your 2018 Easter Tour. Iam looking forward to seeing what your creative mind will come up with. Well right off I must comment on Grace and Sam. How absolutely precious they are. I feel no house is a home with out our four legged family members. Your home is lovely inside and out how wonderful that you and your hubby have found your forever home. I enjoy the tour as you discribes the personal touches your hubby did through out. The family photos were beautiful. I especially enjoyed the ones with your father. Finally after seeing some of your creations (Easter decor) I am excited about what you will come up with next. I must tell you how warm my heart felt to see your reflection of love and faith. Often now days that is either twisted or incorrect to show or speak of . That brings me to my final obsevation. I really love how you tend to close out your viedos. With prayer, blessings for your veiwers,or encouragement along the lines of having trust and faith in God. I like the story you used about being stuck in traffic and being just where you were supposed to be at the time. GOD BLESS you Arlynn

      Hi @Till069, you were allowed to take a non-surge protected power strip. It is very important that it is non-surge protected. Here is a link for one from my Amazon shop.
