- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2024
- Inspired by Jessica Rapp two silver oranges and Care Hart, both on You Tube, I spent the afternoon making clusters! Easy, simple layered embellishments for a variety of projects. Thanks for watching everyone! And please check out the channels of the ladies above to see their clusters!
I will certainly miss your videos while you are off for surgery!. You are so gracious to share your knowledge with us. Thank you thank you thank you. Good luck. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Keep us posted on your progress.
Thank you, dear Julie! It may be a couple of weeks depending on insurance. I will see as much as possible of all of you beforehand. I will miss you so much! ❤️
My stash said quickly is moustache. That’s how you said it! 😃 Had to giggle!
I think that collage is the perfect craft for your recovery. And yes you should over think. That is the fun part!! I will be praying for you and your doctor. Get well soon.
Aaww, thanks Tanya! Prayers are so very welcome! I'll be back as soon as I can!! ❤️
I was so sad to hear that you were going to be laid up after surgery, then I looked at the date of the video: 3 years ago! So it seems like you did really well, because you’ve made a ton of videos since then! So glad! These little clusters are so nice & you certainly have lots of choices to dig through to get the perfect combos! It was nice of you to put them up to the camera, so we could get a closeup view! Thank you!
Hi Miss Gayle! Not to worry about your shoulder surgery. I've had two complete, shoulder replacements w/torn bicep repairs since last June (2017). I think youll be amazed how quickly you'll heal and be back at crafting! You always make me smile and giggle while watching tutorials. I think maybe you might be a tad too organized for the clusters (tee hee). I love it! I will continue to watch all of your old and new videos. I always, always, learn something new. Don't stress about your surgery, let God take care of you and your healing. God bless Gayle. Jill
Oh Jill, that you so very much for your encouraging words! So good to hear! I think the anticipation is the hardest thing for me! Thanks so much for taking the time to reassure me! Hugs to you! ❤️
I luv you, Gayle ! You have taken the place of Netflix ! Oh the inspirations !
Vilma, thank you!! I feel like I’m in the big league being in company with Netflix!! Haha!! ❤️
Gayle, this video is a few months old, and I am watching - a newbie - catching up on lots of techniques new to me.....and this video reminds me of why I enjoy your videos so much!! You are not only creative, but humble, transparent, and funny as heck! I laughed alot with you, here....thanks for sharing all the joy! Blessings!!!
Aw, Colleen, thank you so much! I just saw your comment and am sorry to be so late responding! Thank you so much for your kind words! Sending big hugs and thanks so much for watching! ❤️
Great 👍 love that little book great ephemera nice job gayle 😘
Oh, my! Only a true crafter can appreciate the sacrifice one must make to give your art up for months to recuperate. Bless you as you walk that path.
Thanks Jan! I spent 10 hours in my craft room yesterday! So I'm getting it in while I can!! ❤️
Lovely Gayle, always learning more great ideas about the stuff I'm doing just watching your take on them! I adore Care Hart, she does the Hartist Foundation for disabled artist. Be safe and stay crafty. Namesta💜🕉️🦋💚🍄💛🐌
That looks like a lot of fun!!! Those would go well in your journals. And I'm sure you'll find some kind of craft you can do after your surgery Ms.Gayle. Your so creative. Can't wait to see what you come up with. Hugs and prayers. ~Liz~
Thanks, Liz! And I sure appreciate the prayers! This too shall pass, I'm sure! Hugs! ❤️
The woman in the photo on the cluster you showed at the beginning is my grandmother, Pearl Lowe Blackman. What a thrill to see her face in a video! I feel you about your worries of missing crafting! I hope your surgery goes well, and that you have a speedy recovery!
Aaww, sweet thoughts of grandma!! As you can see, you pack of vintage goodies is going to good use! Sending big hugs! ❤️
This is a fun fun idea, can't wait to try it. Sorry about the surgery you need. I will be praying for you to have a speedy recovery. Thanks.
Thank you, Sharon, I so appreciate the prayers!! ❤️
Prayers for a successful surgery and you being able to craft better than before.
Mary Kay, surgery was in April, 2018. And six months later, I’m doing great!!! Thank you for your good wishes!! ❤️
That was so fun I didn’t want it to end. These are the cutest embellishments and I love it uses up scraps. I must confess, I’m dying to tape back together your ziplock box lol! Good luck with the surgery I don’t know how we will do without you for so long!
Thanks Tammie! We'll see how long I can stay away from you all! I will miss you! ❤️
I LOVE YOUR EMBELLISHMENT
What a wonderful idea, Mahalo for sharing your process and the resource. Now you really got those wheels turing in my brains. Those are so charming and fun to create. You have a great eye for color and bringing wonderful elements together. I’m sending you sweet thoughts and prayers for your surgery. My stepdad has both his rotator cuffs torn and cannot do the surgery. He is trying to take it easy with the long arm quilting to help with his recovery. Knowing you, I’m sure you will find a way to create something that will not put too much strain on your shoulder and still be able to let creativity aid in your recovery. Hey you guys could always take a vacation to Maui. LOL 😆 Best wishes my sweet friend and keep those videos coming. Love hearing your voice with my morning routine. Hugs 🤗
Thanks, my sweet friend! Yes, that Maui vacation is coming one of these days!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for next year about this time! If we can scrape the money together, it's going to happen! Heaven knows we are so ready for some sunshine at this time of year!! Give your stepfather my sympathies! These shoulder issues are certainly painful. I'm sorry that he is unable to get it fixed! I need to count my blessings! Thanks for sharing that, Shana! Big hugs to you!!! ❤️
This would be a great way to use up old playing cards, especially the really glossy one that glue doesn’t always work on. Good luck with the medical issues, prayers for speedy recovery and patience through your healing. Watch lots of videos 😜
Great idea, Annette! Thanks for the prayers! They are always welcome! ❤️
I really like this video. I keep all my little scraps and I've made tiny banner flags with the same idea, but small enough to use on ATC's.
Thanks for sharing. Must try not to think about it and just grab 5 things and staple. Prayers for a successful surgery.
Thelma's Creations and More Thank You!! ❤️
The bags u use to hold you scraps are so adorable
Sheza CraftyOne Hobby Lobby $14.99 without coupon! 😄❤️
I pray that all goes well and you take care of yourself, crafting will be there waiting for your wonderful creativity to be done. Lol. God bless you and your family. Hugs.
Thank you so much, Melba! ❤️
Cute clusters! You aren't the only one. I always struggle to not overcomplicate.
Super cute clusters. I had that surgery about 6 years ago myself it was difficult to craft for me. I know this is an old video and youve already been thru it, im just late to the party. Tfs and crafty hugs.
Gayle you are such a hoot. Love you when you are crafting. Sending blessings on a quick recovery.
Hi Gail, I couldn't resist to subscribe to your beautiful channel.
I love this video.
Thank you so much for sharing. What a great way to reuse all those bitty pieces ❤️
Hugs xo
Vicky
Thank you, Vicky! Welcome to my channel! So glad you are here! ❤️
It is so fun to watch you create. I learn so much from watching you. These little cluster embellishments are awesome, and so useful. Thank you.
These are beautys!
I'm so sorry you will have to have surgery. I understand about not being able to craft. We will miss seeing you. I hope you will have a speedy recovery. You will have to think of ideas to do when you are able to craft again and watch you tube videos. I love the clusters.
Thanks, Linda!! ❤️
I love how you showed how to use these clusters. I love making them. You are right, they are so fun.
I know this is one of your old videos, but I really need lots of inspiration for putting my December 2019 Journal together. Thanks for the help 😀
LOVE it!
Gorgeous!
Hi Gayle! This is another fabulous way to use up scraps,honestly I have so much hoarded scraps! This will be perfect! I’m thinking this would be a fun swap for the ATC group I’m in. (I can link your video for the group to watch to get ideas) . Thank you for sharing 💖
Clusters are addicting. You already have 10 clusters ready to go to be part of the Jessica 's cluster swap. All you need to do is add buttons, flowers or going to finish them. Like the butterfly could have going on the body and would cover over the staple. Her face book group has more information. I sent her 30 clusters and 20 for her and I have around 70 more. Like I said they are addicting. That doesn't include the cluster style paperclips that I make. Thank you for your video.
Thanks Laura!! ❤️
Cute, I have been watching Jessica for about a month now and have learned a lot from her and Care. Praying you heal fast
Thank you, Virginia! Prayers are so appreciated! ❤️
These are so awesome I love every one of them !!!
I totally understand your delima. A year ago last January I had a trigger finger on my right hand opperated on. I wasn't able to do much of anything with it for many weeks and I'm totally right handed. Then I got cellulitis in my right elbow. Then got some kind of bug that also laid me low for several months. What a year that was !!!!
I'm back to nirmal finnaly and doing crafts again.
It was during my down time that I started watching utube crafters. All of you were doing so many pretty things and I wanted to participate which is where I am now. Thank you for the insperation !!!
I really like the Tim Holtz tiny attacher. I've used regular sized staples and then just cover them up with bling, ribbons and bling. They turned out pretty.
HI Gayle! I love your work!
I’ve been watching Jessica Rapp also. I’ve been having a lot of fun making clusters. Jessica’s scraps are organized by size, which makes it so much handier than my pile of chaos. Just when I’ve organized my scraps by color, now I’m think I should sort them by size. Lol
Right, Jan? I have mine by size...loosely, but I feel like I need them more organized now. That may be something I can do while I recuperate!! ❤️
I love these, thank you so much for all you do for us, Hugs. xx
I always love a good scrapbustin’ project! So fun!
Hey Gayle i really like the bags you put all your bits and bobs and loved seeing this tutorial of snippets here and there. Xx
Sorry to hear you have to have surgery but I bet you will feel so much better in the end! Love the clusters and I feel you will figure out some videos to do. We will look forward to seeing you when you feel up to it, your space is always left open!! Just be sure and come back :) Take care
Laughing Dogs Book Nook Thank you! I'll be back for sure! I love you guys! ❤️
I enjoy making clusters also. For me, it lets me de stress! I cut the flaps off of cardboard boxes and take off the top layer on one side so u can see the corrugated part. Then I just cut them into different sizes and use them as a base. When they r inked they look pretty neat with Tim Holtz paper dolls. I enjoy watching your videos. I have learned a lot from u. Thanks for all the tips!,
Gayle that’s so awesome and fantastic and stunning...... I really love 💕 these clusters.....I know that by the time I’ve seen this, that you’ve had your surgery. I’m going to have a go at these. Thank you so much 😊 Gayle xx Mags
sending prayers and positive energy your way. Thanks for sharing and introducing us to Jessica. Creative Blessings!
Love love love! Fun fun fun!
Fun crafty clusters! Great way to use up scraps! TFS, Gayle!
Thanks, Gail! ❤️
Oh Gayle... I just love watching your videos because of you! You make me laugh while inspiring me with so many crafty projects. I can totally relate...I craft daily. I wish you the best with your surgery! I know you'll be crafting afterwards because if there's a will there's a way! I hear that crafting is the best medicine & speeds the healing process...lol Take care, xoxo
Love it, Kim! Yes, and there's definitely a will!! So I'm thinking organizing my supplies might also be something I can do. My bin of lace is a disaster! And now, it seems, I need to organize my paper scraps by cluster size!! Lol!, ❤️
I really like these. They are such a great idea. Thanks for sharing. Good Luck with your surgery.
Thanks, friend! ❤️
Adorable! I too watch Jessica and she's super super organized with her elements. I don't have the room for that. This is definitly something i'll be trying. Like who doesn't own scraps, lol... Best of luck on your surgery. I had 3 surgeries on my hands, done one at a time. But as soon as I was able, I was back crafting again, just had to do it,lol... ~ L
Thanks, Leslie! And thanks for the encouraging words!! ❤️
These are so great . I'm going to have to make these as well 😜thanks for the inspiration Gayle. I wish you all the best for your shoulder surgery and recovery. We're going to miss you . Take care 😘😊🌸💕
Thank you so much, Janet! ❤️
enjoyed watching you. very cute cluster embellishments.
Hope your recovery is smooth and quick! I really enjoy your videos and projects. I've learned a lot from them. I just wanted to say thank you! Best wishes
Thank you so much, Robin!! ❤️
These look fun to make! I'm always looking for ways to use up my scraps! Thanks for sharing!
So sorry you lost your first video!! Thank you so much for making another....these are so cute and fun!! Hugs...k :)
Yes Gayle, I can relate! The very one thing that brings you joy and, now you have to take a pause! Well, think about it this way, more time for the process of gathering! You may have to rest up your shoulder but, you can still use this time to shop for crafty supplies! 😉😁💕
Yes, Ann Kathy! That's looking on the bright side! I love it! ❤️
Great idea sweetie as usual,I've learned so much from watching you. Oh I just love your greeting!
I love these! What a great idea. I have just discovered Jessica a couple of days ago so a bit of a coincidence there. Off I go to learn even more about this!
I love this!!! So beautiful embellishments vintage 😘😍
I recently found your site. You are toooo funny love how you can laugh at yourself. My husband is having the same surgery next month. Take care 😀
Oh Nancy! Thinking of your husband! This is no fun!! Hope we will both come through with flying colors!! ❤️
She said not to think and look at you go I watched Jessica and yours are so cute as you overthink. lOL
love the clusters!!!
You'll be fine Gayle. I'll be keeping you in my prayers. I'm sure you'll find a way to craft. But don't overdue. Hugs
Thanks, my friend! I think the anticipating is the hardest part for me. Once it's done, I'll figure out a way to carry on. Thanks so much for your thoughts! ❤️
These are so pretty! I love making clusters! I make a lot of cards so I make mine for card making. But I'm really getting into junk journals so I've been making them for my journals. I'm off to check out the two ladies you mentioned. As always, thank you for sharing your creativity! Lori
Thanks, Lori!! ❤️
Hope a goes well with your surgery. I like your clusters. TFS
Thanks, Hope! ❤️
I too am very sorry to hear of your impending surgery. I had a frozen shoulder so I had surgery for that about 15 years ago. Then 3 1/2 years ago I had surgery on the same shoulder. The doctor did a total reverse joint replacement surgery. Lots of arthritis in the joint was completely worn out. But I no longer have pain in that shoulder! I will be praying for you and your 👨⚕️ doctor.
The clusters are really adorable, Gayle! 💜💚💙 them!
Thank you, Gaila, I will take all the prayers I can get! P.s. I absolutely love your name! So pretty!! ❤️
Thank you, Gayle, but I had nothing to do with my name!! Actually, I hated my first name on childhood because I wanted a common name like other girls had. I always had to spell it for people! I was in my early 30s before I could actually say I liked my name. Why then? It’s because my name was unusual. So thanks to my mom and my Aunt Dot, I have my name. I am partial to your name as well.
Those are adorable, sorry about your surgery, the time will go by real fast, and you will be busy crafting again soon
Thanks, Charlean! ❤️
Cute 🥰
Your stuff is always so cute!! Love them. Tfs❣
What awesome clusters you came up with.im just getting into making clusters and they are so unique and fun.tyfs.
I love them thank you for sharing
Cute embellishments. Prayers for your surgery.
Thank you, Vici!! ❤️
I always use more than one staple, too. Sometimes it’s unavoidable!
Boa tarde meu girassol 🌻 🌻 🌻 adorei seu trabalho muito delicado parabéns mil beijinhos 💋 💋 💋 💋
Great fun I love it 😍
Amazing tutorial and I wish you the best with your surgery!
Koyo Sensebe Arts and Craft! Koyo Sensebe Thank you! ❤️
Sorry to hear of your impending craft block, ugh!!! I will pray you can craft as a lefty! I have learned to be ambidextrous due to carpal tunnel 😚
These clusters are on point! Love em!
Thanks so much, Rose! ❤️
I am praying for you and your surgery. I pray that you will have a east recovery. Just remember to trust the process!
AFREEME thanks, my dear, for the prayers! Always to welcome! All will be fine! This may be God's way of slowing me down a little. I'm sure there will many blessings along the way...there always are. I appreciate you, my friend! ❤️
Hi Gayle, so sorry to hear that you have to have surgery. I totally understand how difficult this will be for a crafter and I wish you a speedy recovery. I often craft along with Jessica when she does her live stream and I love clusters. But I do have to say that you are GUILTY of over thinking. LOL
Paula Foerder lol its cute though the way she does it. 💖
Haha, Paula, yes, call me out, girlfriend!! I will say...though no one knows it but me...I was a lot looser in the first video. You'll have to take my word on that! Lol! I need to keep watching our pal, Jessica, and maybe she'll rub off on me!! Hugs dear one! ❤️
What a fun video. That looks so fun! Could you hear yelling PICK THAT ONE, USE THIS ONE?? HAHA Can't wait to make some. Prayers for successful surgery and speedy healing. From a fellow Montanan. Carole
Thank so much, Carole! ❤️
TFS Gayle!! Another thing I have to do! Lol
I love your clusters, so pretty. I am so going to try this, thank you so much for sharing your craft with me sessions i really enjoy crafting along with you. Watching your videos have gotten me back into the mood to craft so i've been working on my projects while listening to you and glancing up at your videos to see what your making and how your goodies progress. Your work is always beautiful. Okay I have to laugh though, did Gayle's perfectionist side come out??? Is that a new vintage photo ink pad i see, hahaha? I so would have done the same thing, lol.
Btw, I feel for regarding your shoulder surgery. I have had two full hip replacements and a stimulator implant and each one required three months of full restrictions and no bending forward at all, it was awful, I so wanted to do do, do and I couldn't do anything each time was the longest three months of my life. I so hope you find something you can litter with while your healing it will make it go by much quicker and easier for your mind. Fingers crossed clusters will be your perfect healing craft.
Thank you, Brenda!! Yes, I'm not looking forward to it, but I'm happy to hopefully be on the road to recovery. Too much pain for too long. We'll see how the perfectionist thing works out when I'm doing everything with my left hand!!! 😂❤️
I'm left handed but I do most things right handed. Pain is not fun at all so you are so right in getting it done sooner than later and when you dive full force back into crafting without pain will be so awesome for you but we are going to miss your videos so heal fast okay, just kidding but we will miss you while your on your down time. Take it easy and heal and your just going to have to have hubby take you are craft shopping trips until then, lol.
Wow! This is so awesome Gayle! Thank you for the mention....and the link.....really, im flattered. 💖💖💖 It was so fun to watch you making them! Im sad the other one was deleted. :(
I think you did a great job and overthinking is necessary sometimes right!? Lol
Hope your surgery goes well. I think if you can manage the one staple idea, you will have thousands done in no time!
Hi, darlin'! Soooo, love these! And...everything you do! My video watching time is limited, but you have been my go to lately! I've so enjoyed watching you work! And I'm probably going to need one of those handy dandy compartmentalized storage bins. Oh so love your organization, sweetie! You rock! Thanks for the inspiration, Jessica! Sending big grateful hugs! ❤️
aaaaaawh....thank you again Gayle, and i want you to know Ive been binging yours lately too! Fine minds i guess. Btw, I now have three of those handy dandy bins...lol
I love the concept of making these clusters, but I feel like I am so unsure of my combinations I would have to fiddle with them. Wish I had more snap judgement because I have tons of project life cards to use up.
I hear ya, Cindy! I'm going to practice being "looser" with this. I have to fight the urge to arrange! But then again, maybe it's okay to arrange and just work on them until we are happy! TFW! ❤️
LOVE these!!! I am working on my stash. Let us know when your surgery is. "hugs"
Thanks, Laurie! Looks like surgery will be in the next couple of weeks. Depending on insurance. 😜
WoW this is awesomeness..! 💕 I wish you well for your surgery and a speedy recovery... By the way I loved the journal you did that goes with these embleshamint 💕😊
Thanks so much, Lori! ❤️
Love your clusters !! I'm sure you will find a way to craft a little , while you recover from your surgery. But take care of yourself first.
Thanks, Carol! ❤️
I am sorry you must go through a surgery on your shoulder, but I am happy that you will get it done and be out of pain. I am sure there will be something you can do for crafting while recovering. You still have your toes right? Love what you have done with the scraps. Keeping you in prayer.
Thanks, Deborah, for the prayers! I so appreciate it! Love it...crafting with my toes! Lol! Thanks so much for making me laugh about it! Hugs! ❤️
I hope Your Surgery goes well. Try not to stress about taking a break from what You love doing. You can use the time to watch other crafters on RUclips & accumulate new ideas. No doubt You can use the time to shop online too! lol I know it's frustrating though. Thinking of You. Big Hugs xoxo
Thank you, sweet friend! I'm sure all will be fine! Big hugs! ❤️
I just found you and you are so relaxing to watch, if you have had your surgery hope your doing good, prayers your way! Do want to ask where on Earth did you get your bags where you keep your goodies love them!
Hi Sonya! The embellishment bags came from Hobby Lobby. They were in the scrapbook bin organization area. Thanks for watching! ❤️
Hi Sonya! The embellishment bags came from Hobby Lobby. They were in the scrapbook bin organization area. Thanks for watching! ❤️
Thanks for sharing. Isn't Tracie Fox just the sweetest!?
Yes she is!!! ❤️
Wait, wait, wait... you have 4 of those adorable embellishment bags?? I keep wondering where you got it every time you pull it out. I’m sure others have asked already but I’m new to this 🎉 😁
kanona0115 I got the embellishment bags at Hobby Lobby. They are Paper Studio brand and were in the paper crafting organization bins area. Hope that helps! ❤️
Six weeks with out the use of one arm, well Lost my left arm in2009. I have learned to do things other ways. Like holding down paper to cut with a brick covered with felt. Tying a ribbon with your lips.. cutting is always a little crooked. And using distress tool is murder LOL. But you'll get by and you always have the fact that it'll be over in 6 weeks. But making journals keeps me sane and stops me from feeling sorry for myself. Oh well let me stop here cuz I can't go on and on. But I'll be wishing you a speedy recovery.
Oh thank you, Barabra, for reminding me that it always could be worse. I'm so sorry about the loss of your arm, but I am truly inspired by your outlook. I can guarantee you, I'll be thinking of you many times over the next little while. My biggest problem may be my protective husband that may not let me near my craft room...or so he threatens!....until the doc says it's okay. Lol! God bless you, my dear friend. And thanks for your gentle, kind reminder! No more feeling sorry for myself...just will get on with it and figure it out! Sending hugs, love and gratitude. ❤️
I loved this video. I am an over thinker and sometimes freeze myself in frustration. Like - "I should not cover this up or that up" and I fight with myself. Ug Now I will worry worry where I put the staple too. But I will do it!! (I will try!) lol Where did you get those bags?? Love them!
Robin, Hobby Lobby!!! ❤️
What are those storage bags that you have all your ephemeras in?? I love them!
I got them in the storage section of the scrapbooking section of Hobby Lobby. They are great!! ❤️
I love these! I know this is an old video because you are all healed up. Aren’t you supposed to tilt them? I like yours better. They look more uniform. Gayle you are so good at what you do. My guru! 🤣
Thank you, sweet Vicki! ❤️
wow Gayle, sorry to hear that, I know the feeling, I got something like that going on right now so I know exactly what you are going through, anyway ull find the way around it and make the best out of it :-) :-) thank you for sharing - I don't mean to spam u but if u ever feel like it or something here is a video I did about it too :-) stay blessed and take care :-)
Ok, I'm gonna find you stuff to do while your recovering from surgery. My first great idea is come to Colorado and stay with me and we will "organize" my crafty space. Lol. We won't get into any trouble at all! (I just sent you a friend request on Facebook. At least I hope it's you.)
P.S. I think u would like the addition of the fun fur yarn or trim of some kind on some of them. I felt like mine were kinda lacking something and was super happy with how much a little yarn in the background added.
Thanks, friend, for offering to be my nurse Nancy! I could sit in a chair and say put this here, put that there, do you really need that, how long since you used that? Yep, I think this could work! Lol!! Hugs! ❤️
Love your embellishment bags! Did you make them yourself?
Nice video, thanks!
Tieske Ellis I got the embellishment bags at Hobby Lobby. ❤️
Gayle Agostinelli
I live in Namibia and we do not even have a hobby shop anymore nearer than 🔜 450km! And they do not have such beautiful thing as you do in USA 🗿or Europe🗼!
Am jea😈lous but en😊joy so much what you make!
Thanks for all the inspiration
