Tina, I LOVE your videos. You owe no one an apology for how you work. You give so much on a DAILY basis. If people don’t like how your desk looks, they don’t have to watch. I wish you could UNapologize.
Totally not bothered by your desk..far more interested in what you create and the ideas you give me. Love watching you....messy desk or not..thank you for sharing all your ideas..x x
Your desk is great. Your videos are wonderful. Please don’t let comments bother you. You have thousands of us who lie your crafting. We all are rooting for you. Your kindness and sweetness are a great example for us all. Sooo craft away. Do what ever type of video you want. We will support your. Love ❤️ from America.
Seriously!? Whoever emailed you about your desk, THAT’S what she took from your videos? You teach so much, inspire so many and did she miss the memo about what these videos were about? Please do not feel the need to apologize for your creative process. Create away and be YOU, a creative, inspiring wonderful artist who should NEVER have to apologize for your style! I personally LOVE your desk and the AMAZING things you do with what’s on it. No apologies NO APOLOGIES are necessary for you being who you are. Craft on and thank you for all that you share.
Hi Tina, you have 21k subscribers and thats because we love you, what you do and how you do it ❤️ Please don't change for 1 persons opinion, they don't have to watch, they can move on. It's your channel and if you don't do it your way, it just wouldn't work xx Love Dee
Hi Tina, anyone who watches your videos should know, by now, how your desk looks. Don't apologize, you do amazing crafting. Viewers should vocus on what you are doing and not what your desk looks like. Actually you make me get up and start crafting everytime I watch. Doesn't bother me whatsoever🤗.
I agree with the other lovely ladies. Your desk is and always will be just fine. My husband just shales his head at my desk. His comment to me seems applicable to you as well. He said " i dont know how you create such beautiful things out of the caos but you do. " So keep being you and do what feels right for you. Never apologize for who you are. If your good with it so be it. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing
1st...I am so sorry that I got distracted on Sunday and didn’t complete my order. The kit is beautiful and I have it now... 2nd...I along with many of these ladies love your style of crafting and are so thankful that you share what you do for free. You take the time every day to share something with us. You have a family and a home that definitely take priority so if your desk is ‘messy’ so what. Most of the time I wish my crafting area looked like yours. You inspire us daily , say encouraging words and uplifting us. If your area is distracting to anyone they can just move along. There isn’t any room for rudeness. Craft away Tina and I don’t care if it’s in your backyard or kitchen floor. Thank You so much for what you do!!!
Your desk is Your desk. My desk is always messy because I'm creating in short periods of time during the day. I love the new kit....bought it yesterday. You're the first video I watch every morning. I love spending that time with you. I'm looking forward to zillions of new videos from you. Would love to see videos using your kits. ❤❤❤
I think who ever said that was very rude. My desk is always a mess way worse than I have ever seen your desk look. You don’t have to apologize to anyone.
Hey Tina, I had a science teacher who kept a sign on her desk something about “A cluttered desk is the sign of a genius”. So of course I had to google it just now, and found “5 Creatives who had a messy desk”. It was an interesting article on canva.com, relaying that a Tidy Desk Stifles Creativity, and gave photo examples of Einstein, Mark Twain, and Steve Jobs, with their “creative” work desks. If they can do it, so can you! No apologies needed, another reason we love watching you! 🙂❤️👍🏼 P.S...great idea with the journaling cards, I’m so trying it.🍊
Creative people always have messy work spaces. I have my supplies in zippie bags all over my work area, no rhyme or reason either. (Except my bigger paper obviously.) Look at Einstein, he had stacks of papers on his desk. I love your work and your very talented as well. Thank you for your hard work.
I love your messy desk. That’s who you are and you have a life other than these videos. How very rude of whoever complained. I remember those notes saying a tidy desk is the product of a diseased mind! You are such an inspiration. And not only do you make videos you are also producing those beautiful papers and that must take time as well. You never should apologise for being who you are. I’m so impressed. I worked for myself and at home and it wasn’t as easy as it sounded. I only have a small space as I stitch and knit as well and they aren’t without things I’m storing. Please don’t change. I love your channel. I love your generous spirit. I’ve learnt such a lot so quickly. 😊💕🌷
Oh thank you so much Sara, I really appreciate your kindness and understanding. It is hard staying organised when working from home. I know it did get a little out of hand during the lockdown, I am going to try and be a little better.......only a little 🤭🙃 x
Tina...you're a wonderful crafter and person! All the crafters I know have a mess when they are creating. Then we come to a point where we clean up. That's when we discover other things and have more ideas. Keep up the series....I did it along side of you. God bless.
No apologies are necessary. Life, especially a creative life, can be messy. Your videos are very informational and inspirational! I love watching you craft and never really notice the mess.
OMG ... how rude is that !!! We do craft.. that means our tables are going to be messy all the time ... and doesn't matter is a small or large crafting area.We are interested in your ideas and what you create. PLEASE do not apologize. If someone is not happy... she just can move to another channel... more tidy one....Thank you, Tina, for all what you do...xx
Your desk has never bothered me! Everyone has their own way of crafting! You offer so much more in tutorials etc. than to worry about a messy desk! Don't be bothered by it at all! xo
I don't wish to offend anyone, but the way you work and your desk is absolutely nobodies business but yours, I love your video's and appreciate the time and effort you put in every single day for us completely free of charge and your 'mess' does not affect your lovely personality or creativity xxx
No need to apologize at all. You should see my small workspace, it’s piled up completely and therefore I work on top of a book on my lap, lol. But, I know where everything is😉. Love your videos.
Well I guess it's my turn to weigh in on your messy desk..I feel when you have all the things you need right in front of you, it's how you create, I think if your desk was cleared, and you had to keep going back and forth getting all the things you needed it just wouldn't be the same..I love how you create and teach and generally make my day and you have helped many of us Newbies to create along with you and feel proud of what we have accomplished..so please, don't worry about what someone says about your messy desk.. I feel that's where your mojo comes from..so I'm begging you.. Don't you dare clean it up!🤭 I will see at our next tea time..♥️
I never understand why if people don’t like something they feel the need to comment rather then just turn off🤔 I only discovered journaling during lockdown and have now watched many of your videos finding them fun and informative...and until I discovered your channel have never watched a video lasting as long as yours do. Thank you and keep up the good work. 💖
I, too, had never watched RUclips videos before the lockdown. I LOVE the length of your videos and have been working through all of them, each time trying what you are teaching. THANK YOU SO MUCH TINA!!!! 💕🥰❤️
I also just discovered journaling during the pandemic! I don’t even remember how I used to spend my time! But now I’m too busy to do anything besides crafting!
All I’m going to say is: Don’t change! Continue being your sweet, creative, inspiring self. Now, I must rush off to my messy desk and create journaling cards.
Great cards!,and you shouldn't have to apologize fir your crafting space.not everyone has the time to clean up all the time.i can't even craft in my room at the moment.cant find my table.lol.😄I don't care what your desk looks like,as long as I can see what you are making.thats all that should matter.
Honestly Tina you don't need to appologise for your desk it's your desk to do as you like with and how you keep it and it certainly doesn't effect your amazing crafting which is brilliant and if people have such a problem why not move on to another channel that suits them so sorry to hear this but please keep crafting and be proud as I love your crafts like so many of us do best wishes from London
Hi Tina. I know you don’t really want people weighing in on this but I can’t help myself. I think the writer of the email is rude and hurtful. I watch your videos every day without fail and have never noticed any of the things you apologized for. Your videos are inspiring and entertaining and I look forward to spending this hour with you each day. I have created many wonderful projects thanks to your inspiration. Keep being you💖🇨🇦
Really cute journaling cards this will help me to learn how to collage so I will make some. Please do not be stressed over someone else’s comment on how your desk looks. That’s a sign of a great 👍🏾 crafter, which you truly do very well. you should me desk & work area I have so many projects I go from to the other. Lol 😂 the heat you where referring to came here to Columbus, Ohio it’s been in the HIGH 90’s for two weeks now. Monday it was 97’ 🥵& going to continue for now till Saturday. Thanks for sharing this tutorial. Keep your head up & don’t let others offend you it’s your work space & you love 💗 to create & I love watching all the time. 👍🏾👏🏾💃🏽
You don’t need to apologize for anything. Your style is uniquely yours and that is that. Order may be important to some but not for all. If it bothers someone they do not have to watch. I watch a lot of crafters and most seem to flourish in clutter. It inspires and feeds creativity. Seeing papers fabrics and all our supplies at the ready shows the world of possibilities there are for creating. So that is how I feel about it. Mess leads to beauty. And your amazingly beautiful creations are proof of that. Hugs Ludmila.
Hello Tina please I think you need to continue to do you and not let that person bother you. We all watch you because we love what you do. Your desk is part of your creativity don't let let person stifle that. We love you and please carry on love. Hugs ❣️
Oh I dislike rude people! You are not alone! My table is a wreck but if I put everything away, I can't find it later! I love the mass making and would love to see you go back to week 1. I think it will be fun! Hugs Tina!!
I'm an extremely neat and organized crafter (and contrary to some comments, those of us who are tidy can be creative), but I have absolutely no problem with how your desk looks. In fact, I almost feel like I need to go back and view those videos because I can't recall being put off by how "disorganized" or "untidy" you were. That's you and it's how you create the many amazing things that you do. Hope the antihistamines work!
Lynn Sinclair that’s exactly what I was thinking. I should go back and see what the fuss is about. I watch every day and didn’t notice any of the things Tina is apologizing for.
I saw Tina’s desk - it’s nothing to be ashamed of at all. It’s just a wee bit messy but nowhere near as bad as she makes it sound. My whole room is in much more chaos than her desk.😊
Dear, don't apologize for your presentations, most crafting channels are messy it's the nature of it all isn't it, I myself like to see disarray turn into a work of art that is why I watch. Plus just your voice alone I could listen to for hours.
Hi I'm new to your channel, I like what you are creating, I wish I had a desk to work on, I have to create on my bed, so it's always a mess, I heard your name a few times while watching "Scrapbooking with me" your work is great
I am amazed that someone would comment on a messy desk. I am always trying to organize my craft area. I don't have a large room with lots of space. There is always lots of stuff everywhere. If we don't have a mess, we are not having fun. I watch what you are doing for instruction and ideas. If it bothers someone, they can watch others. There are very few who don't have a messy area. Continue being you and craft on.
Although my muse has been off since the pandemic hit us...I have a channel as well and so much goes in to producing each video. It isn't just crafting; it's back to back videos, Etsy restock, designing digitals, completing journals, coming up with new ideas, and sooooo much more....AND we love it all. Then we have our actual lives with our families and our homes and all that comes with it. Don't ever apologize for your wonderful desk....it is art waiting to happen, journals being created and videos coming to your channel. It's the love of crafting and sharing you give and to your subbies. Your desk is your wonderful space of creativity and crafting energy all waiting to happen and it is all a gift to those of us that watch your channel. No matter how constructive the email; those kind of comments are unfortunately not helpful. They leave us wondering if all our subbies feel the same way. I can tell you, they do not all feel that way....we love you and your channel and those of us gaining ideas and creative energy from you probably haven't noticed a problem with your desk at all. Hang in there and don't apologize! You are doing a great job!
Don’t forget in your spare time that you make us digitals to print off for super duper cheap! I can see why a mess would accumulate 🤪 Brilliant minds are often messy😂Take care and craft on!
Thank you for another inspiring video ❤️ I usually collage on a large piece and cut down later but doing a card at a time gives a completely different balance which I really like. Your videos are always a delight to watch and clearly there are far more viewers who feel the same. You owe apologies to no one.
Just be you! I feel that is the advise I will offer about the messy desk. I have watched all your videos and I have enjoyed them and learnt something to boot. By all the comments on here I believe we all feel thankful that you are doing videos and sharing your talents with us. Love the journaling cards. Keep up the great work! Thank you for sharing. ❤️🇨🇦
I have tried your system of three collage pieces and it works great....makes it so easy. I watch you every day and your desk hasn’t kept you from making wonderful things and it certainly has not discouraged me from watching you. Do not feel you owe us any apology...and you certainly don’t owe that person an apology...if it bothers HER, then she needs to search out a new channel that features a neat-as-a-pin crafter...good luck with that lady. Keep doing what you’re doing Tina, it is your style and it WORKS for you and for us.
Hi Tina, PLEASE DON’T THINK YOU HAVE LET ANYONE DOWN. You do NOT need to apologize to anyone for your desk. Whoever sent you that email is so rude and if they don’t like what they’re watching... move on. But I’ll bet you any amount of money that that person used a lot of your ideas in her work because your ideas are awesome. I feel so bad that you feel that you have to defend yourself. You wouldn’t be you any other way. I love the saying, “If you can anything in this world...be yourself”!! And I think you are just that. Your you and you’re perfect the way you are. I also think you were very graceful in your explanation of the whole situation. Lots of hugs 🤗
I'm sorry you have to justify your desk 🙄 I think it was quite obvious why it had become more messy I think you have done brilliant managing to keep us entertained while all your family is home. I do hope that this hasn't upset you, hasn't the world got enough problems without having a debate on your desk 🤔 I watch because I like the way you do things it's totally different from me and that is why I enjoy you I feel my tidyness actually can get in the way of my creativity. I hope this comment doesn't clip your wings I felt that you wasn't yourself today. I totally get how everyone at home and they can't identify when we are actually working haha. Great collage BTW woooohooo I hope you have something super for the one year of mass makes
Thank you so much Tania, I really appreciate your kindness and understanding. It has definitely been a trying time for anyone trying to work with the kids at home. They’ve only been back a couple of weeks and now they’ve finished this week for the summer! Looks like my desk and disorganisation might continue for a while longer than I had hoped. I hope all is well with you and yours x
@@shabbydabbydoodah itz been a nightmare really, my daughter is 12 so first year of comprehensive she's had a good 6 hrs a day of work to do since being off. She's fine doing the work but getting her motivated and making sure she is actually doing work and not playing the sims has been a full time job it's getting harder to pull her out of bed each day. so glad I've not had to go back to work. im on annual leave in another week for a fortnight then I'll be going back most are back now but they have not insisted that parents go back .I'm only going out the house once a week for food shopping so it's going to be strange being back at work
It's not that I'm offended at the other person's email, it's just that I, and all the people with comments before mine, love you just the way you are. We are concerned that you feel the need to change, but we just want to continue enjoying the lady we have already come to know. It was easy to tell that you were rather upset at the idea that someone was put off by the mess during your crafting, we don't want you to have to feel that way, you are perfect just the way you are. If YOU want to change that is fine and we are behind you all the way. But if you are content with yourself then don't worry with changing for another person. ❤ you!
Your desk, your clutter, your business. If you are happy creating and sharing your ideas with us , that is all that matters. Don’t make it a chore to keep the desk organized and stress yourself out. We love what you do🤗
I love your videos and watching this I can’t believe someone complained about a messy desk. That’s how creative people work and lord knows most of us are. Just be you and keep creating all this glorious journaling stuff. 😎👍👍👍👍
Having a messy work desk? So what!!! Absolutely NOTHING to apologize for ... it is a sign of a creative mind and a busy life, which we are very fortunate you share with us. Please don't let meanies ruin your day or make you feel less. And don't change how or what you are doing. You are WAAAAAY more organized than me and I love settling in and crafting while watching you show us how you create ... I love the longer videos the better. Thanks for all you do in these stressful times. Stay safe. P.
It is unfortunate that you feel you any apology is necessary. It isn’t. You are giving us your time every day. Free ideas and free instruction. I love your tutorials they are very informative and interesting. Love your printable digital packs. When your working with such amounts of beautiful and different kinds of paper you have to have the supplies at ready. Keep crafting we love your ideas and process.
I think you are doing such a great job with everything that you do. I am learning so many new things for me to try. So what if your desk is a mess sometimes. You should see mine!!!! Don't let some people make you feel down. I so appreciate what you do. TFS
Hi Tina, Please never apologize forr your crafting area/desk! You should see my desk lol, it's messy and disorganized and it's just they way I like it lol! Loving your journal cards, great way to use up those scraps that we accumulate and help contribute to our messy crafting areas lol and now I know what to do with those card blanks in my stash lol! Take care, Hugs X
“Your chaos” needs no apology or explaining. That’s the thing ... it’s yours and how you work best, as do most of us. I would say after reading all the comments everyone feels the same way. Don’t change you! You’ll spend more time worrying about that stuff it could affect your creative process and none of us want that. You create some of the most beautiful things, and I love your whole process.
You are such a lovely lady Tina. No apology needed, we love you no matter what your desk looks like. Sending you hugs and encouragement from Australia. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💐💐💐💐💐💐
It is your desk, you can keep it however you want! Some people act as if they themselves are perfectionist and have the right to belittle anyone unlike them. What a sad life to always be a complainer. I say : Live and Let Live! Keep doing whatever makes you happy Tina! Love your videos, and love seeing all your pretty papers and creative eye candy on your desk!
Don’t stress about your desk, there are others that are much messier than you ! You’re in the middle of the creative process & that constitutes having “stuff” on your desk. If that aren’t scraps on your desk, you’re not creating ! Keep up the good work 🇺🇸❤️
Oh, I love your desk, craft table. It’s full of wonderful, creative and interesting craft products. The papers, ribbons, bling, buttons and bits and bobs are just waiting for your vision and creative style. Which, is just like mine. 👍💗I think we’re kindred spirits except that you’re my daughters’ age and I’m a bit older than you😂. I have loved paper crafting since I was a little girl. You have taught me so much and with a lot of fun. Don’t listen to naysayers, they’re a dime a dozen. You’re a pearl❣️Thank you, Eloise
I always watching your videos,you are so sweet and kind. Dont let people that arent happy take it out on you. My work area is so messy but I work best when I can find stuff. So happolly your ears are getting better. Your work is awesome😘
I hope whoever sent that super uncalled for email reads all these comments and rethinks their motives for a minute. When I’m not a fan of a video, I click it off. Super easy peasy. I am sooo a messy crafter and have no problem with it. I love your process and work in the same fashion....with what’s on my desk. Sometimes all those random bits on my desk inspire something. You’re super lovely and I look forward to your videos everyday! 💜
No need to apologize! You work how you work. I have watched videos where some people have neat areas and some have very messy. I don't care actually it makes me feel better cause I'm messy crafter too..lol..you make AMAZING things and you have to do things your way. Keep up good work and spending your time with us💖💖
I love your series and your creative ideas! No one can work on a project without getting messy. I just finished a journal and unless your family is complaining about the mess or eating paper in their food those that truly make several projects at a time remain in a organized mess!! Those that don’t like it, apparently don’t really love tearing paper apart and gluing it back together in a different way😂. Much bigger problems going on around us! Yes....Netflex has added a lot of different movies and documentaries this month it was shocking! Loved all I have watched. Since the movie theaters are still not open everybody is streaming movies. I still miss the big, big. screen and a dark theater! Call me crazy! Here in the US our COVID-19 numbers are terrible and climbing. Making many restaurants go back to closing. I work in retail and we are now taking temperatures and requiring masks before you can shop. That just started last Tuesday. Many people have turned around and walked out! Some are great fun for us requiring add protection. It is the corporate decision what each store requires. I hope the whole city will require all shopping requirements the same. Take care!
I agree with you so much because the numbers are going up. I am in California and our family is being extra careful about what we do. It gets even scarier when you know someone who has the virus. It is sad to see how many don't think it could happen to them. We are not even close to be over this. Please stay safe❤
Don’t apologize for your desk! It’s your desk and you can keep it the way you want it. If someone doesn’t like it, they can turn off the video. My desk is always a mess from crafting too. Hugs 🤗
Tina, as always I love your videos. I loved your X piles series - maybe I was too busy enjoying your creativity to see the 'mess' but I can honestly say that I never saw anything wrong with your desk and it certainly didn't distract me. I am really enjoying this video too. TFS.
Ugh! Let's not let the folks who have no imagination get to us. There are some of those always nearby. Your Art is beautiful and inspiring and always makes me happy😘😘thank you for sharing with us.....also I am mesmerized by your rings they are AWESOME♥️♥️♥️
I do not think you should have to apologize for anything!!! My goodness, this last year was a disaster for many people in many ways! It’s called LIFE & life HAPPENS! Most of us are doing the very best we can in whatever circumstances we find ourselves. And working from home isn’t necessarily an easy thing to do. You were used to working from home, but then your family stayed home too!! And moms usually have the lion’s share of childcare, shopping, housework & meal preparation! I am exceedingly grateful that you have made the time to send out so many videos!! You are part of my regular routine: I have coffee with you every morning, rain or shine! You’ve not only provided us with fantastic new things to do with paper, but you’ve done it with grace, good humor & steadfastness! Each of has our own style of living & it’s not our place to criticize each other about what our homes look like. I would be in a total panic & stay up all night trying to clean & organize if someone was going to see my house (& especially my craft room!!) tomorrow!! I’m not lying: I can barely see my desk & absolutely can’t even work there!! Tina, do not feel badly about ANYTHING!! There is absolutely no reason to apologize! I am very sad that someone would make comments about how you live. As I said, you’re one of my best friends now! I feel like you could be my next door neighbor! You are giving thousands of us who may be lonely, ill, financially strapped, completely over-stressed by life right now a bit of sunshine & something to look forward to each day! I would be devastated to try to view a new video & read that you have had to cut back because of personal issues. (You, of course, may have to do that at some point, but don’t let it be because you had to clean your house!!) I hope I haven’t gone on too long with my comments, but please Tina, do not for a minute feel badly about your desk! This person can close her eyes or stop watching you if she can’t be grateful for your delightful presentation, each & every day!! You are much-loved, Tina! Have a wonderful day & another cup of tea, instead of rushing around trying to clean & organize!
Tina, wonderful and creative woman who shares her talents so generously, you owe *no one* an apology. Anyone who feels so small that they can offer criticism can just go away (trying hard not to swear here). I deeply appreciate your talent and willingness to share with us.
I love your filming, chats, and creations. Please never feel you have to apologize for being yourself and working in the style that is most comfortable for you. Please don’t change one bit. If someone is that bothered they can simply not watch. I do the same thing I can start out with a clean surface and craft myself into a 6 x 6 space, its what happens when you are being creative and using a variety of supplies.
I believe my creativeness comes from my messeyness. (sp) You have nothing to apologize for. I thank you for coming up with ideas to help use up my scraps. It just happens, when we use up scraps, we inevitably make more scraps - never ending circle in this hobby.
I really don’t see why people need to make comments about a messy desk. A crafter cannot craft without making a mess, especially someone as busy as you . Thank you for all your time and effort.😊
I don’t feel like you should apologize for anything. It was nice of that person to email you and not share that comment on RUclips though. You are very talented and share your talents with us. Thank you for making your videos for us. I appreciate you!
Thank you so much Katherine, and the lady that emailed me was honestly doing so with good intentions, also she too didn’t want to publicly comment, which is why she emailed me. X
Your desk is fine!!! Who cares? I enjoy your videos like a visit from a friend! My desk is messy when I'm really crafting. I clean my desk when I take a notion, then just pull everything out again! You are great! Your videos are great! Thank you for your efforts in sharing your skills!
O dear sweet Tina, I absolutely loved your x-piles! Wonderful progress you have made! You have a plan and that is awesome! but at the end of the day it is your Space! A messy or tidy artist shouldn’t matter. And it shouldn’t matter to anyone how the job gets done. I personally could be considered a tidy crafter but I may have a big mess during the process, the end result is worth the having stuff every where! Please keep smiling and bringing us lovely Ideas!!! xxx
People that tell other people how to do things just because it’s not the way they would do things are so wrong and rude!!!! Never apologize for your way of doing things I think you are a brilliant beautiful lady and you create beautiful things I only use your digital papers to make my journals and wish I had a half of your creative abilities
Mass making, xpiles all in one! Love this series. You’ve inspired me to be less OCD about my desk and by leaving things out I find I use them. Looking forward to the organization series too. Personal questions- how do you ever keep fabri Tac from eating your nail polish, and is there a story to you big fashion rings. Loving seeing each day which one you are wearing and admire the fact you keep your hands so pretty. Yep, love your channel!
Thank you for everything you do for us! I absolutely love your videos and appreciate the time you take to make them and the digitals. I have heard that a clean space is the result of an idle mind, lol!🥰
You continue to work as you wish and I will continue to watch as I enjoy watching you. Don’t change your routine of filming for anyone We got the heatwave here and it’s not gone away yet. .
I just love your messy desk I often have just enough space to make a tag!!! Like the lady earlier said it's your desk. Please don't change i enjoy your style and everything you make. Xx
Please dont pay attention to that person. I dont care how messy you are. I love you and the content you teach us. I love your channel. Who do people think they are making comments like that. If they dont like it they can move on. I dont understand how some people just concertrate on the negative they need to get a life. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love, love, love making these base journaling cards in mass making! I make them all the time and love them and I learned from you how to do it. So quick, easy and very effective! Great job! Just keep being you and work the way that best suits you. Big warm hugs to you! 🤗🌸🤗
I have had a complete knee replacement and am being teased constantly by your wonderful videos. Hopefully a few more weeks and I can join you in crafting.
creative or not I think it was rude to reproach you for your untidy desk, and shame on the critic for making you feel you had to apologize :( we are all creative in different ways and do the best we can with our space
I love these little cards! This is something I'll be doing to use up scraps off my desk. I love watching you craft - messy desk and all. My family complains about my messy crafting area, but after watching you (and others) on RUclips I realize I'm completely normal! You keep working the way that makes you feel comfortable. If someone doesn't like your crafting style they can always turn the video off. From the comments below I'd say you have plenty of us that love your style and will continue to watch! You have nothing to apologize for.
Thank you so much Shirley, yes my family complain a bit about my stuff too! Unfortunately it’s just one of those things, this is a very messy hobby! Also very addictive, which means I take a little bit of mess everywhere I go so I can always do a little crafting 🤭🤗😊 x
Not very often I post a comment but got to this time. How rude of them to make such a comment if they don't like it they don't have to watch, when I craft I start off tidy, by the end of my project my table looks like a bomb has exploded but so what if you enjoy what you are doing. I love your videos and to be honest I concentrate on what you are making and never take notice of your desk, there's no reason for you to apologise. Xxx
I'm a messy crafter too. When you get in the creative spirit you start pulling things out to try and before you know it your desk is in a big mess. No big deal. Also...I love your suggestions as to what to watch on Netflix. I am so sad when I have come to the end of a great show and at a loss as to what to watch next. Think I will take a shot at the "Victoria" documentary. Love the mass making journal cards. Great idea. I've been fussy cutting flowers waiting for the inspiration for my next journal. Will now start on journaling cards! Thanks for your videos! You are very talented!
I appreciate all of your videos! If there’s an issue or a project I’m not drawn to, I simply switch off. It’s just petty to complain when we get such good content AT NO CHARGE! 🤩. I’ve recently subscribed to BRITBOX and I love it. Currently watching Inspector Lynley and the last few episodes of the POIROT series....Take care and thanks again for your inspiration and the kindness you spread.😍
No apologies necessary!!! My desk looks very similar to yours when I’m working! When you’re in the groove, who wants to clean - not me 🤣🤣 I’m going to do this to my pile of unused project life cards ... perfect 👌 Keep up the great work, I love your videos 💕
Tina, I LOVE your videos. You owe no one an apology for how you work. You give so much on a DAILY basis. If people don’t like how your desk looks, they don’t have to watch. I wish you could UNapologize.
Your never irritating Tina, I appreciate you & you videos vy highly Thankyou so much 💕💐
Totally not bothered by your desk..far more interested in what you create and the ideas you give me. Love watching you....messy desk or not..thank you for sharing all your ideas..x x
You don’t need to apologize for your work area. You are an artist and do a wonderful job. Love learning from you.
Your desk is great. Your videos are wonderful. Please don’t let comments bother you. You have thousands of us who lie your crafting. We all are rooting for you. Your kindness and sweetness are a great example for us all. Sooo craft away. Do what ever type of video you want. We will support your. Love ❤️ from America.
Seriously!? Whoever emailed you about your desk, THAT’S what she took from your videos? You teach so much, inspire so many and did she miss the memo about what these videos were about? Please do not feel the need to apologize for your creative process. Create away and be YOU, a creative, inspiring wonderful artist who should NEVER have to apologize for your style! I personally LOVE your desk and the AMAZING things you do with what’s on it. No apologies NO APOLOGIES are necessary for you being who you are. Craft on and thank you for all that you share.
Hi Tina, you have 21k subscribers and thats because we love you, what you do and how you do it ❤️
Please don't change for 1 persons opinion, they don't have to watch, they can move on.
It's your channel and if you don't do it your way, it just wouldn't work xx Love Dee
Now, a year later you have 30,000 subscribers!! That’s how much we love you!
Hi Tina, anyone who watches your videos should know, by now, how your desk looks. Don't apologize, you do amazing crafting. Viewers should vocus on what you are doing and not what your desk looks like. Actually you make me get up and start crafting everytime I watch. Doesn't bother me whatsoever🤗.
I agree with the other lovely ladies. Your desk is and always will be just fine. My husband just shales his head at my desk. His comment to me seems applicable to you as well. He said " i dont know how you create such beautiful things out of the caos but you do. " So keep being you and do what feels right for you. Never apologize for who you are. If your good with it so be it. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing
You can tell from all the comments that you are soooooo loved. Just keep on doing what you do best. So much love from all of us❤❤❤
1st...I am so sorry that I got distracted on Sunday and didn’t complete my order. The kit is beautiful and I have it now... 2nd...I along with many of these ladies love your style of crafting and are so thankful that you share what you do for free. You take the time every day to share something with us. You have a family and a home that definitely take priority so if your desk is ‘messy’ so what. Most of the time I wish my crafting area looked like yours. You inspire us daily , say encouraging words and uplifting us. If your area is distracting to anyone they can just move along. There isn’t any room for rudeness. Craft away Tina and I don’t care if it’s in your backyard or kitchen floor. Thank You so much for what you do!!!
Your desk is Your desk. My desk is always messy because I'm creating in short periods of time during the day. I love the new kit....bought it yesterday. You're the first video I watch every morning. I love spending that time with you. I'm looking forward to zillions of new videos from you. Would love to see videos using your kits. ❤❤❤
I think who ever said that was very rude. My desk is always a mess way worse than I have ever seen your desk look. You don’t have to apologize to anyone.
I agree!
The randomness and reality of your crafting is what I truly enjoy please don’t change your unique style
a good crafter has a mess...love ur work keep it up.
Hey Tina,
I had a science teacher who kept a sign on her desk something about “A cluttered desk is the sign of a genius”. So of course I had to google it just now, and found “5 Creatives who had a messy desk”. It was an interesting article on canva.com, relaying that a Tidy Desk Stifles Creativity, and gave photo examples of Einstein, Mark Twain, and Steve Jobs, with their “creative” work desks.
If they can do it, so can you! No apologies needed, another reason we love watching you! 🙂❤️👍🏼
P.S...great idea with the journaling cards, I’m so trying it.🍊
Creative people always have messy work spaces. I have my supplies in zippie bags all over my work area, no rhyme or reason either. (Except my bigger paper obviously.) Look at Einstein, he had stacks of papers on his desk. I love your work and your very talented as well. Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you so much, sadly I definitely can’t claim to be Einstein, but can definitely relate to his mess! Lol ,
I love your messy desk. That’s who you are and you have a life other than these videos. How very rude of whoever complained. I remember those notes saying a tidy desk is the product of a diseased mind!
You are such an inspiration. And not only do you make videos you are also producing those beautiful papers and that must take time as well. You never should apologise for being who you are. I’m so impressed. I worked for myself and at home and it wasn’t as easy as it sounded. I only have a small space as I stitch and knit as well and they aren’t without things I’m storing.
Please don’t change. I love your channel. I love your generous spirit. I’ve learnt such a lot so quickly. 😊💕🌷
Oh thank you so much Sara, I really appreciate your kindness and understanding. It is hard staying organised when working from home. I know it did get a little out of hand during the lockdown, I am going to try and be a little better.......only a little 🤭🙃 x
Tina...you're a wonderful crafter and person! All the crafters I know have a mess when they are creating. Then we come to a point where we clean up. That's when we discover other things and have more ideas. Keep up the series....I did it along side of you. God bless.
No apologies are necessary. Life, especially a creative life, can be messy. Your videos are very informational and inspirational! I love watching you craft and never really notice the mess.
OMG ... how rude is that !!! We do craft.. that means our tables are going to be messy all the time ... and doesn't matter is a small or large crafting area.We are interested in your ideas and what you create. PLEASE do not apologize. If someone is not happy... she just can move to another channel... more tidy one....Thank you, Tina, for all what you do...xx
Your desk has never bothered me! Everyone has their own way of crafting! You offer so much more in tutorials etc. than to worry about a messy desk! Don't be bothered by it at all! xo
I don't wish to offend anyone, but the way you work and your desk is absolutely nobodies business but yours, I love your video's and appreciate the time and effort you put in every single day for us completely free of charge and your 'mess' does not affect your lovely personality or creativity xxx
No need to apologize at all. You should see my small workspace, it’s piled up completely and therefore I work on top of a book on my lap, lol. But, I know where everything is😉. Love your videos.
Somebody once said, “A messy room is the sign of a creative mind.” Whoever it was they were certainly brilliant! 🤣😂. Hugs and blessings, 🤗❤️
Well I guess it's my turn to weigh in on your messy desk..I feel when you have all the things you need right in front of you, it's how you create, I think if your desk was cleared, and you had to keep going back and forth getting all the things you needed it just wouldn't be the same..I love how you create and teach and generally make my day and you have helped many of us Newbies to create along with you and feel proud of what we have accomplished..so please, don't worry about what someone says about your messy desk.. I feel that's where your mojo comes from..so I'm begging you.. Don't you dare clean it up!🤭 I will see at our next tea time..♥️
I never understand why if people don’t like something they feel the need to comment rather then just turn off🤔 I only discovered journaling during lockdown and have now watched many of your videos finding them fun and informative...and until I discovered your channel have never watched a video lasting as long as yours do. Thank you and keep up the good work. 💖
I agree, move on it I'm messy trust me I know it, it's called creativity! 😘😍
I, too, had never watched RUclips videos before the lockdown. I LOVE the length of your videos and have been working through all of them, each time trying what you are teaching. THANK YOU SO MUCH TINA!!!! 💕🥰❤️
I also just discovered journaling during the pandemic! I don’t even remember how I used to spend my time! But now I’m too busy to do anything besides crafting!
I love your desk :).my table is also a mess lol. don't listen to negative people.you are amazing good !!!and I like your vidoes soooooo much :)
All I’m going to say is: Don’t change! Continue being your sweet, creative, inspiring self. Now, I must rush off to my messy desk and create journaling cards.
Great cards!,and you shouldn't have to apologize fir your crafting space.not everyone has the time to clean up all the time.i can't even craft in my room at the moment.cant find my table.lol.😄I don't care what your desk looks like,as long as I can see what you are making.thats all that should matter.
How rude of them. If they don't like it, move on. I'm a messy crafter and proud of it!
me too Judi
Honestly Tina you don't need to appologise for your desk it's your desk to do as you like with and how you keep it and it certainly doesn't effect your amazing crafting which is brilliant and if people have such a problem why not move on to another channel that suits them so sorry to hear this but please keep crafting and be proud as I love your crafts like so many of us do best wishes from London
Hi Tina. I know you don’t really want people weighing in on this but I can’t help myself. I think the writer of the email is rude and hurtful. I watch your videos every day without fail and have never noticed any of the things you apologized for. Your videos are inspiring and entertaining and I look forward to spending this hour with you each day. I have created many wonderful projects thanks to your inspiration. Keep being you💖🇨🇦
Really cute journaling cards this will help me to learn how to collage so I will make some. Please do not be stressed over someone else’s comment on how your desk looks. That’s a sign of a great 👍🏾 crafter, which you truly do very well. you should me desk & work area I have so many projects I go from to the other. Lol 😂 the heat you where referring to came here to Columbus, Ohio it’s been in the HIGH 90’s for two weeks now. Monday it was 97’ 🥵& going to continue for now till Saturday. Thanks for sharing this tutorial. Keep your head up & don’t let others offend you it’s your work space & you love 💗 to create & I love watching all the time. 👍🏾👏🏾💃🏽
You don’t need to apologize for anything. Your style is uniquely yours and that is that. Order may be important to some but not for all. If it bothers someone they do not have to watch. I watch a lot of crafters and most seem to flourish in clutter. It inspires and feeds creativity. Seeing papers fabrics and all our supplies at the ready shows the world of possibilities there are for creating. So that is how I feel about it. Mess leads to beauty. And your amazingly beautiful creations are proof of that. Hugs Ludmila.
Hello Tina please I think you need to continue to do you and not let that person bother you.
We all watch you because we love what you do. Your desk is part of your creativity don't let let person stifle that. We love you and please carry on love. Hugs ❣️
Your kind, gifted with so much talent, and you have taught me so much! Please stay just the way you are! Your perfect 👍🏻❤️
Oh I dislike rude people! You are not alone! My table is a wreck but if I put everything away, I can't find it later! I love the mass making and would love to see you go back to week 1. I think it will be fun! Hugs Tina!!
I'm an extremely neat and organized crafter (and contrary to some comments, those of us who are tidy can be creative), but I have absolutely no problem with how your desk looks. In fact, I almost feel like I need to go back and view those videos because I can't recall being put off by how "disorganized" or "untidy" you were. That's you and it's how you create the many amazing things that you do. Hope the antihistamines work!
Lynn Sinclair that’s exactly what I was thinking. I should go back and see what the fuss is about. I watch every day and didn’t notice any of the things Tina is apologizing for.
I saw Tina’s desk - it’s nothing to be ashamed of at all. It’s just a wee bit messy but nowhere near as bad as she makes it sound. My whole room is in much more chaos than her desk.😊
Dear, don't apologize for your presentations, most crafting channels are messy it's the nature of it all isn't it, I myself like to see disarray turn into a work of art that is why I watch. Plus just your voice alone I could listen to for hours.
Crafters always have stuff on their desk. No worries just a busy time.
Lol. I try to explain this to my hubby lol. Its part of the creative process 💌😁
Hi I'm new to your channel, I like what you are creating, I wish I had a desk to work on, I have to create on my bed, so it's always a mess, I heard your name a few times while watching "Scrapbooking with me" your work is great
Oh thank you so much Helen, I love that you craft on your bed 😉 . Welcome to my channel x
I have a messy desk and craft room but I call it controlled chaos. You are you and you are great. Love your videos.
I am amazed that someone would comment on a messy desk. I am always trying to organize my craft area. I don't have a large room with lots of space. There is always lots of stuff everywhere. If we don't have a mess, we are not having fun. I watch what you are doing for instruction and ideas. If it bothers someone, they can watch others. There are very few who don't have a messy area. Continue being you and craft on.
Your desk, your channel, your choice. I’m still watching. ;-)
Although my muse has been off since the pandemic hit us...I have a channel as well and so much goes in to producing each video. It isn't just crafting; it's back to back videos, Etsy restock, designing digitals, completing journals, coming up with new ideas, and sooooo much more....AND we love it all. Then we have our actual lives with our families and our homes and all that comes with it. Don't ever apologize for your wonderful desk....it is art waiting to happen, journals being created and videos coming to your channel. It's the love of crafting and sharing you give and to your subbies. Your desk is your wonderful space of creativity and crafting energy all waiting to happen and it is all a gift to those of us that watch your channel. No matter how constructive the email; those kind of comments are unfortunately not helpful. They leave us wondering if all our subbies feel the same way. I can tell you, they do not all feel that way....we love you and your channel and those of us gaining ideas and creative energy from you probably haven't noticed a problem with your desk at all. Hang in there and don't apologize! You are doing a great job!
Don’t forget in your spare time that you make us digitals to print off for super duper cheap! I can see why a mess would accumulate 🤪 Brilliant minds are often messy😂Take care and craft on!
Embrace your mess. Your a crafter who donates her time and experience to us. Most of us really appreciate it. They can just deal!
Thank you for another inspiring video ❤️ I usually collage on a large piece and cut down later but doing a card at a time gives a completely different balance which I really like. Your videos are always a delight to watch and clearly there are far more viewers who feel the same. You owe apologies to no one.
Just be you! I feel that is the advise I will offer about the messy desk. I have watched all your videos and I have enjoyed them and learnt something to boot. By all the comments on here I believe we all feel thankful that you are doing videos and sharing your talents with us. Love the journaling cards. Keep up the great work! Thank you for sharing. ❤️🇨🇦
I have tried your system of three collage pieces and it works great....makes it so easy. I watch you every day and your desk hasn’t kept you from making wonderful things and it certainly has not discouraged me from watching you. Do not feel you owe us any apology...and you certainly don’t owe that person an apology...if it bothers HER, then she needs to search out a new channel that features a neat-as-a-pin crafter...good luck with that lady. Keep doing what you’re doing Tina, it is your style and it WORKS for you and for us.
Hi Tina, PLEASE DON’T THINK YOU HAVE LET ANYONE DOWN. You do NOT need to apologize to anyone for your desk. Whoever sent you that email is so rude and if they don’t like what they’re watching... move on. But I’ll bet you any amount of money that that person used a lot of your ideas in her work because your ideas are awesome. I feel so bad that you feel that you have to defend yourself. You wouldn’t be you any other way. I love the saying, “If you can anything in this world...be yourself”!! And I think you are just that. Your you and you’re perfect the way you are.
I also think you were very graceful in your explanation of the whole situation. Lots of hugs 🤗
I'm sorry you have to justify your desk 🙄 I think it was quite obvious why it had become more messy I think you have done brilliant managing to keep us entertained while all your family is home. I do hope that this hasn't upset you, hasn't the world got enough problems without having a debate on your desk 🤔 I watch because I like the way you do things it's totally different from me and that is why I enjoy you I feel my tidyness actually can get in the way of my creativity. I hope this comment doesn't clip your wings I felt that you wasn't yourself today.
I totally get how everyone at home and they can't identify when we are actually working haha.
Great collage BTW woooohooo I hope you have something super for the one year of mass makes
Thank you so much Tania, I really appreciate your kindness and understanding. It has definitely been a trying time for anyone trying to work with the kids at home. They’ve only been back a couple of weeks and now they’ve finished this week for the summer! Looks like my desk and disorganisation might continue for a while longer than I had hoped. I hope all is well with you and yours x
@@shabbydabbydoodah itz been a nightmare really, my daughter is 12 so first year of comprehensive she's had a good 6 hrs a day of work to do since being off. She's fine doing the work but getting her motivated and making sure she is actually doing work and not playing the sims has been a full time job it's getting harder to pull her out of bed each day. so glad I've not had to go back to work. im on annual leave in another week for a fortnight then I'll be going back most are back now but they have not insisted that parents go back
.I'm only going out the house once a week for food shopping so it's going to be strange being back at work
It's not that I'm offended at the other person's email, it's just that I, and all the people with comments before mine, love you just the way you are. We are concerned that you feel the need to change, but we just want to continue enjoying the lady we have already come to know. It was easy to tell that you were rather upset at the idea that someone was put off by the mess during your crafting, we don't want you to have to feel that way, you are perfect just the way you are. If YOU want to change that is fine and we are behind you all the way. But if you are content with yourself then don't worry with changing for another person.
❤ you!
Honey you craft the way it works for you. I love your tutorials and you. I would love to craft at your table.
Your desk, your clutter, your business. If you are happy creating and sharing your ideas with us , that is all that matters. Don’t make it a chore to keep the desk organized and stress yourself out. We love what you do🤗
I love your videos and watching this I can’t believe someone complained about a messy desk. That’s how creative people work and lord knows most of us are. Just be you and keep creating all this glorious journaling stuff. 😎👍👍👍👍
No apologies needed. Just do your thing because we enjoy spending time with you no matter what your desk looks like. You are a fun crafter! 💕
And another thing who wants to spend time cleaning their craft space, please please don't change I love watching you xx
Having a messy work desk? So what!!! Absolutely NOTHING to apologize for ... it is a sign of a creative mind and a busy life, which we are very fortunate you share with us. Please don't let meanies ruin your day or make you feel less. And don't change how or what you are doing. You are WAAAAAY more organized than me and I love settling in and crafting while watching you show us how you create ... I love the longer videos the better. Thanks for all you do in these stressful times. Stay safe. P.
I caught you at the end. So I’m good with anything you show.
It is unfortunate that you feel you any apology is necessary. It isn’t. You are giving us your time every day. Free ideas and free instruction. I love your tutorials they are very informative and interesting. Love your printable digital packs. When your working with such amounts of beautiful and different kinds of paper you have to have the supplies at ready. Keep crafting we love your ideas and process.
What a great point ... she’s giving us her time & energy for FREE. I’m glad you pointed that out.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your kindness and support x
I think you are doing such a great job with everything that you do. I am learning so many new things for me to try.
So what if your desk is a mess sometimes. You should see mine!!!! Don't let some people make you feel down.
I so appreciate what you do. TFS
Hi Tina,
Please never apologize forr your crafting area/desk! You should see my desk lol, it's messy and disorganized and it's just they way I like it lol!
Loving your journal cards, great way to use up those scraps that we accumulate and help contribute to our messy crafting areas lol and now I know what to do with those card blanks in my stash lol!
Take care, Hugs X
“Your chaos” needs no apology or explaining. That’s the thing ... it’s yours and how you work best, as do most of us. I would say after reading all the comments everyone feels the same way. Don’t change you! You’ll spend more time worrying about that stuff it could affect your creative process and none of us want that. You create some of the most beautiful things, and I love your whole process.
You are such a lovely lady Tina. No apology needed, we love you no matter what your desk looks like. Sending you hugs and encouragement from Australia. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💐💐💐💐💐💐
It is your desk, you can keep it however you want! Some people act as if they themselves are perfectionist and have the right to belittle anyone unlike them. What a sad life to always be a complainer. I say : Live and Let Live! Keep doing whatever makes you happy Tina! Love your videos, and love seeing all your pretty papers and creative eye candy on your desk!
Don’t stress about your desk, there are others that are much messier than you ! You’re in the middle of the creative process & that constitutes having “stuff” on your desk. If that aren’t scraps on your desk, you’re not creating ! Keep up the good work 🇺🇸❤️
Oh, I love your desk, craft table. It’s full of wonderful, creative and interesting craft products. The papers, ribbons, bling, buttons and bits and bobs are just waiting for your vision and creative style. Which, is just like mine. 👍💗I think we’re kindred spirits except that you’re my daughters’ age and I’m a bit older than you😂. I have loved paper crafting since I was a little girl. You have taught me so much and with a lot of fun. Don’t listen to naysayers, they’re a dime a dozen. You’re a pearl❣️Thank you, Eloise
I always watching your videos,you are so sweet and kind. Dont let people that arent happy take it out on you. My work area is so messy but I work best when I can find stuff. So happolly your ears are getting better. Your work is awesome😘
Your messy desk shows how creative you are. No need to explain or apologize!
I hope whoever sent that super uncalled for email reads all these comments and rethinks their motives for a minute. When I’m not a fan of a video, I click it off. Super easy peasy. I am sooo a messy crafter and have no problem with it. I love your process and work in the same fashion....with what’s on my desk. Sometimes all those random bits on my desk inspire something. You’re super lovely and I look forward to your videos everyday! 💜
No need to apologize! You work how you work. I have watched videos where some people have neat areas and some have very messy. I don't care actually it makes me feel better cause I'm messy crafter too..lol..you make AMAZING things and you have to do things your way. Keep up good work and spending your time with us💖💖
Your desk tells me you are a busy artist and I don't worry about your desk. No need to apologize at all since your family deserves your time.
I love your series and your creative ideas! No one can work on a project without getting messy. I just finished a journal and unless your family is complaining about the mess or eating paper in their food those that truly make several projects at a time remain in a organized mess!! Those that don’t like it, apparently don’t really love tearing paper apart and gluing it back together in a different way😂. Much bigger problems going on around us! Yes....Netflex has added a lot of different movies and documentaries this month it was shocking! Loved all I have watched. Since the movie theaters are still not open everybody is streaming movies. I still miss the big, big. screen and a dark theater! Call me crazy! Here in the US our COVID-19 numbers are terrible and climbing. Making many restaurants go back to closing. I work in retail and we are now taking temperatures and requiring masks before you can shop. That just started last Tuesday. Many people have turned around and walked out! Some are great fun for us requiring add protection. It is the corporate decision what each store requires. I hope the whole city will require all shopping requirements the same. Take care!
I agree with you so much because the numbers are going up. I am in California and our family is being extra careful about what we do. It gets even scarier when you know someone who has the virus. It is sad to see how many don't think it could happen to them. We are not even close to be over this. Please stay safe❤
Don’t apologize for your desk! It’s your desk and you can keep it the way you want it. If someone doesn’t like it, they can turn off the video. My desk is always a mess from crafting too. Hugs 🤗
Tina, as always I love your videos. I loved your X piles series - maybe I was too busy enjoying your creativity to see the 'mess' but I can honestly say that I never saw anything wrong with your desk and it certainly didn't distract me. I am really enjoying this video too. TFS.
Ugh! Let's not let the folks who have no imagination get to us. There are some of those always nearby. Your Art is beautiful and inspiring and always makes me happy😘😘thank you for sharing with us.....also I am mesmerized by your rings they are AWESOME♥️♥️♥️
I do not think you should have to apologize for anything!!! My goodness, this last year was a disaster for many people in many ways! It’s called LIFE & life HAPPENS! Most of us are doing the very best we can in whatever circumstances we find ourselves. And working from home isn’t necessarily an easy thing to do. You were used to working from home, but then your family stayed home too!! And moms usually have the lion’s share of childcare, shopping, housework & meal preparation! I am exceedingly grateful that you have made the time to send out so many videos!! You are part of my regular routine: I have coffee with you every morning, rain or shine! You’ve not only provided us with fantastic new things to do with paper, but you’ve done it with grace, good humor & steadfastness! Each of has our own style of living & it’s not our place to criticize each other about what our homes look like. I would be in a total panic & stay up all night trying to clean & organize if someone was going to see my house (& especially my craft room!!) tomorrow!! I’m not lying: I can barely see my desk & absolutely can’t even work there!! Tina, do not feel badly about ANYTHING!! There is absolutely no reason to apologize! I am very sad that someone would make comments about how you live. As I said, you’re one of my best friends now! I feel like you could be my next door neighbor! You are giving thousands of us who may be lonely, ill, financially strapped, completely over-stressed by life right now a bit of sunshine & something to look forward to each day! I would be devastated to try to view a new video & read that you have had to cut back because of personal issues. (You, of course, may have to do that at some point, but don’t let it be because you had to clean your house!!) I hope I haven’t gone on too long with my comments, but please Tina, do not for a minute feel badly about your desk! This person can close her eyes or stop watching you if she can’t be grateful for your delightful presentation, each & every day!! You are much-loved, Tina! Have a wonderful day & another cup of tea, instead of rushing around trying to clean & organize!
You are a lovely lady..... thank you for all you that you share and your beautiful art. You Do not have to apologize for anything! 💕💕💕
Tina, wonderful and creative woman who shares her talents so generously, you owe *no one* an apology. Anyone who feels so small that they can offer criticism can just go away (trying hard not to swear here).
I deeply appreciate your talent and willingness to share with us.
I love your filming, chats, and creations. Please never feel you have to apologize for being yourself and working in the style that is most comfortable for you. Please don’t change one bit. If someone is that bothered they can simply not watch. I do the same thing I can start out with a clean surface and craft myself into a 6 x 6 space, its what happens when you are being creative and using a variety of supplies.
I believe my creativeness comes from my messeyness. (sp) You have nothing to apologize for. I thank you for coming up with ideas to help use up my scraps. It just happens, when we use up scraps, we inevitably make more scraps - never ending circle in this hobby.
I really don’t see why people need to make comments about a messy desk. A crafter cannot craft without making a mess, especially someone as busy as you . Thank you for all your time and effort.😊
I don’t feel like you should apologize for anything. It was nice of that person to email you and not share that comment on RUclips though. You are very talented and share your talents with us. Thank you for making your videos for us. I appreciate you!
Thank you so much Katherine, and the lady that emailed me was honestly doing so with good intentions, also she too didn’t want to publicly comment, which is why she emailed me. X
Your desk is fine!!! Who cares? I enjoy your videos like a visit from a friend! My desk is messy when I'm really crafting. I clean my desk when I take a notion, then just pull everything out again! You are great! Your videos are great! Thank you for your efforts in sharing your skills!
O dear sweet Tina, I absolutely loved your x-piles! Wonderful progress you have made! You have a plan and that is awesome! but at the end of the day it is your Space! A messy or tidy artist shouldn’t matter. And it shouldn’t matter to anyone how the job gets done. I personally could be considered a tidy crafter but I may have a big mess during the process, the end result is worth the having stuff every where! Please keep smiling and bringing us lovely Ideas!!! xxx
People that tell other people how to do things just because it’s not the way they would do things are so wrong and rude!!!! Never apologize for your way of doing things I think you are a brilliant beautiful lady and you create beautiful things I only use your digital papers to make my journals and wish I had a half of your creative abilities
Mass making, xpiles all in one! Love this series. You’ve inspired me to be less OCD about my desk and by leaving things out I find I use them. Looking forward to the organization series too. Personal questions- how do you ever keep fabri Tac from eating your nail polish, and is there a story to you big fashion rings. Loving seeing each day which one you are wearing and admire the fact you keep your hands so pretty. Yep, love your channel!
Thank you for everything you do for us! I absolutely love your videos and appreciate the time you take to make them and the digitals. I have heard that a clean space is the result of an idle mind, lol!🥰
You continue to work as you wish and I will continue to watch as I enjoy watching you.
Don’t change your routine of filming for anyone
We got the heatwave here and it’s not gone away yet. .
I just love your messy desk I often have just enough space to make a tag!!! Like the lady earlier said it's your desk. Please don't change i enjoy your style and everything you make. Xx
Please dont pay attention to that person. I dont care how messy you are. I love you and the content you teach us. I love your channel. Who do people think they are making comments like that. If they dont like it they can move on. I dont understand how some people just concertrate on the negative they need to get a life. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love, love, love making these base journaling cards in mass making! I make them all the time and love them and I learned from you how to do it. So quick, easy and very effective! Great job! Just keep being you and work the way that best suits you. Big warm hugs to you! 🤗🌸🤗
Thank you so much Laurette, I am so thrilled that you have found this technique useful x
I have had a complete knee replacement and am being teased constantly by your wonderful videos. Hopefully a few more weeks and I can join you in crafting.
Don't worry about your desk. Just the way you do things. Keep up the great work!😊
creative or not I think it was rude to reproach you for your untidy desk, and shame on the critic for making you feel you had to apologize :( we are all creative in different ways and do the best we can with our space
I love these little cards! This is something I'll be doing to use up scraps off my desk. I love watching you craft - messy desk and all. My family complains about my messy crafting area, but after watching you (and others) on RUclips I realize I'm completely normal! You keep working the way that makes you feel comfortable. If someone doesn't like your crafting style they can always turn the video off. From the comments below I'd say you have plenty of us that love your style and will continue to watch! You have nothing to apologize for.
Thank you so much Shirley, yes my family complain a bit about my stuff too! Unfortunately it’s just one of those things, this is a very messy hobby! Also very addictive, which means I take a little bit of mess everywhere I go so I can always do a little crafting 🤭🤗😊 x
Not very often I post a comment but got to this time. How rude of them to make such a comment if they don't like it they don't have to watch, when I craft I start off tidy, by the end of my project my table looks like a bomb has exploded but so what if you enjoy what you are doing. I love your videos and to be honest I concentrate on what you are making and never take notice of your desk, there's no reason for you to apologise. Xxx
Thank you so much Maria, I really appreciate your kindness and for taking the time to comment x
I'm a messy crafter too. When you get in the creative spirit you start pulling things out to try and before you know it your desk is in a big mess. No big deal.
Also...I love your suggestions as to what to watch on Netflix. I am so sad when I have come to the end of a great show and at a loss as to what to watch next. Think I will take a shot at the "Victoria" documentary.
Love the mass making journal cards. Great idea. I've been fussy cutting flowers waiting for the inspiration for my next journal. Will now start on journaling cards! Thanks for your videos! You are very talented!
I appreciate all of your videos! If there’s an issue or a project I’m not drawn to, I simply switch off. It’s just petty to complain when we get such good content AT NO CHARGE! 🤩. I’ve recently subscribed to BRITBOX and I love it. Currently watching Inspector Lynley and the last few episodes of the POIROT series....Take care and thanks again for your inspiration and the kindness you spread.😍
No apologies necessary!!! My desk looks very similar to yours when I’m working! When you’re in the groove, who wants to clean - not me 🤣🤣 I’m going to do this to my pile of unused project life cards ... perfect 👌 Keep up the great work, I love your videos 💕
