Please don’t feel like you, (I.e., us) have to keep up with the Jones. I’d rather see cooking, gardening and some decorating. Even if it’s a 10 minute video is wonderful. We love you and love your videos. And, this video is great! I love that you are down to earth and REAL 😘❤️
I think you’re providing value by NOT doing the same flashy content as others. I appreciate your calm, gentle content that makes me feel like I’m just FaceTiming with a best girlfriend! Please always stay true to yourself and post what makes you happy. ❤
Your channel is a breath of fresh air. I’d much rather see thrifted or diy’d home decor than a shrine to Hobby Lobby. Whatever you do, I’ll be watching!❤️
Amy you are beautiful inside and out-at any weight. I appreciate that you are not trying to "show off" all your (high end) purchases in every video and I don't mind sponsored content-I'm always interested in learning about new things even if it is not for me. I also appreciate that you are soft spoken and thoughtful-unlike so much of the world. Your "style" resonates with me-so I hope you will continue with your channel and look forward to you expanding your content to include gardening and cooking!
Oh Amy, The reason look so forward to your videos is because they are beautiful, meaningful, and simple. I want to get as far away from the rat race and keeping up with the jones and every trend as possible. I want more channels like yours. You share what is important. We need all the reminders of that as we can get. You are so real and have such a soft and gentle soul. Please continue to share and help us grow.💝
I subscribe to many RUclips channels, but there is really only a handful that I watch whenever they post and you dear Amy are one of those. I love your channel, your content and your sweet nature. I’m a committed viewer and would love what ever content you choose to post. Your authenticity comes through whatever you choose to do. Thank you for always thinking of your viewers and always stay true to you!
Dear Amy, I am a 72 year old lady. I live on Social Security. I am not interested in content creators who just buy, buy, buy. Really, that seems so unrealistic and wasteful. I enjoy watching regular people who live creative, clean, wholesome lives. So you have a niche.
I appreciate that you don’t always have to change your rooms. They are beautiful! I’m also happy you don’t always buy, buy, buy, like so many do.I’ve stopped watching some channels because of that. I like your simply, straightforward way. Love all your videos.
Hi Amy. I so appreciate your honesty in this video. You have such a kind and gentle spirit and are a joy to watch. It doesn't matter to me what content you post on here, it is always inspiring. Thank you for not feeling pressured to show big hauls as all the decor starts to look the same in the homes of other youtubers. You are a genuine and beautiful young woman. I am in my 60s and have learned much from you. Looking forward to watching more videos in the future. God bless and Happy Easter!
You are such a warm and genuine, sincere person. Even with not meeting you, or knowing you personally, you give off a very caring vibe. I’m sure you are an amazing mother!
Beautiful description of the value of being a homemaker - the most important job you will ever have. Such a blessing to have the choice. The best parent is a happy parent - so do what makes you happy - inside or outside the home. Support each other’s choices. ❤️
AMY Loved your chat today. Love you talking about your Christian values. Love that you care so deeply for your family. Children are such a blessing. I PRAY God will bless you in every way possible. Dianna
Bloom where you grow! Would love to see a new season of growing whether it’s your belief or gardening. Mostly just love to see your sunny smile. We’re all behind you whatever you choose. Just love your honesty.
Hi Amy! I have been a follower of yours for a few years now and you are one of my all time favorite accounts! It’s not so much the content you share (although I do love it) but more about your heart that you share that connects me to you! The love you have for the Lord and for your family exudes from you and you truly bring my heart so much joy! So proud of you for sharing what’s truly on your heart and always staying true to who you are. We all change during different seasons of our lives and that will always be ok!! Also, congrats on your weight loss journey, what an accomplishment! Much love to you always! ❤
Amy, I so appreciate who you are. Honestly, I have been a subscriber from way back when you were in Georgia and it has been such a joy to see how you have evolved. From my perspective, you are at your best in this present moment. I remember your lovely house in the south and it was a showpiece, but the home you live in now radiates your warmth and love. I don't watch you to see how much decor you purchase. I watch you because of the way you share how you create a place to serve your family. Without a doubt you are one of the most talented creators on you tube. All you need to do is be you. Your sincerity, encouragement and grace gives us a soft spot to land where we can learn a tip or two along the way. No need to worry about the value of your channel. It's perfect regardless of what you decide to film. Sometimes we all feel that life would be better if we could only reach the other side of the rainbow when what we really need to hold dear is that there is no place like home. See you in the next video :)
Spring is almost here and everyone’s outlook will get a big boost! I love your content and home and decor ideas but my favorite thing about your channel is your smile. I could sit and watch and listen all day. We watch because we like YOU. I am probably old enough to be your momma and will agree with the less is more makeup. The older I get, the less I wear. I liked the format of this catch up on life video. Blessings to you and your family. 😊
You are one of my reasons for beginning my RUclips journey. Your content is always perfect. I completely understand the “ Keeping up with the Jones”. I have prayed about it numerous times…and all I kept hearing from God was “you do you”. I think you are absolutely precious. Thank you for all your inspiration and You do You♥️♥️♥️
Also- I’m sooooo drawn to “Simple living content” these days!! It’s okay to do some soul searching and finding what you’d like to create in this season! We’re rooting for you and we support you!🤍🤍🤍
Amy, thank you for sharing! I follow quite a few you tubers and you are one of my top 5 for sure. One of the things I love about your channel is that you are real! I love your content, and your decorating style. Your home looks so cozy and relaxing. I like neutrals too and we recently painted our walls a light sage green which I love. What you said about loving to be a homemaker resonates with me. That is how I have felt since we first got married and through all the stages of our almost 43 years of marriage. We raised three kids and I always tried to make our home our sanctuary, our haven. We are now grandparents of 8 but I still love being a homemaker.keeping up with the joneses was never my style. Whatever you share I will enjoy because it comes from your heart.
Amy.....You have always given us down to earth knowledge on cooking , cleaning, and decorating...and we thank you. Never feel like you have to follow others. Just what you said earlier....being thankful for everything....your home, family, food. That really made me think too and I thank you. There is times I get in a mood and how wrong is that!!!! I have a home..a loving husband and food on our table. So many do not have this. You are special...stay the way you are and you can't go wrong. God is smiling. Blessings my friend. ♥️🙏Ps....you look great. I too have been trying to move more and eat less. So easy to gain. Lol😣
That's why we love you and your channel. We love simple living, simple decorating, and gardening. You are mine and my sisters favorite. Last year we watch you work in your flowerbed and my sister went home and put in her first ever flowerbed and worked in it all summer. Just keep doing what you're doing.
So glad to hear of your weight loss & how much healthier and happier you feel! You look great! As for your video content, continue to be yourself. ❤ Post what makes you happy. 😊
I never usually comment on RUclips videos but I felt absolutely compelled to do so this time! You are so sweet and lovely and I really admire your openness and honesty. I love that you don’t encourage your viewers to spend big, especially in this current environment. I also love how you encourage us to be grateful for what we already have and to be content in our home making journey. Thank you for being you and bringing a lovely, real, positive, uplifting channel to RUclips. God bless you 💗
Yes, food videos and planning....you do everything so well...love your videos, a favorite of mine....we love all you do, not a bunch of stuff around your home....do food meals for us
Your parents did such a great raising you. I love your comments on gratitude. We are so blessed in this country. There are so many little things for which we can be grateful. Just as you are so forgiving of others, don’t forget to give yourself a little grace as well. Wishing you and your family a blessed Easter!
Well, let me just say… YOU and your channel are my FAVORITE on RUclips. Having said that, I honestly almost enjoy your weekly emails more than content. Let me explain. I love visiting in your home and gaining inspiration from you. It’s fantastic! But for me, the emails seem to be more YOU! Without the filter. More Jesus girl and more of what I relate to. We get your true heart in those communications. Now I am here and will support any platform you choose. Don’t worry about content and buying all the HB greatest and latest! I personally do not care about that stuff. I just want to visit my friend, sit on porch and share cup of coffee, do Bible study or devotional and then share whatever is going on in your world. 🤗
Amy that's what draws me to your channel is your authenticity. You bring inspiration and creativity with thrifted and antique finds. It's not always about the new hot trends. It doesn't matter how many videos you put out, but the quality. Continue to be the person we have come to admire and adore. ❤
Hey Amy! I ❤ ur channel. I get so excited when I c u have a new video. Would luv to c some cooking videos!!! I must b in the same funk as u. I used to luv all the extras of buying and watching videos, but for the past year I am down to watching just a few videos and they r all more simplistic home decorating, homesteading, cooking and grocery hauls! U remain my favorite. U rock Amy!❤️
I think your answer about what you love about being a homemaker was an excellent answer. I stayed home and also had a career and I can tell you I worked a lot harder being home for my kids than I ever did in the corporate world. I too feel it is great to have a beautiful, clean, joyful, safe haven for your children. Love you being you! I too love the less is more, but I have way to much.😊
Although I have been a “ring the bell” subscriber for a few years, truthfully I can’t/don’t catch all of your new videos. I’m old enough to be your GMom, so I don’t watch your videos to learn anything new, but I so enjoy watching your channel just because I love your continuous smile, the love you have for your family, the pride you have in your home, the way you decorate simply, yet beautifully. And not gonna lie, your kitchen sink 🤣🥰. So you be yourself, live your life for your family first (I know you do) share what you can, when you can, and sponsor away….if it’s good enough for your Momma, 😚 it’s good enough for me. Spring is here in Virginia, 💚 it’ll be there soon. 🙏🏻Stay safe🙏🏻. You look beautiful and are amazing 🥰
Thanks for sharing! P.S. Simplistic content is sustainable content. I think a shift in what people enjoy will surprise the algorithm. I appreciate your content and look forward to whatever you feel most inspired to share!
I recently started following you & I love how you are genuine & shine. I believe it’s healthy to step back & look at your business & see what may need to change just as we grow with our maturity. At 67 myself I have never regretted being home with my family & you are right to keep that your #1 goal. You are beautiful & blessed for sure.
Love what I see, what you can post. Don’t think all of your subscribers are waiting about certain contents. We are there because of you, your style and your vibe. Be quiet with what you propose.
You are one of the RUclipsrs I'm most excited to see when you post. I love your simple life content and it really helps me feel grateful for what I have. I'd love to see cooking and gardening content! No matter what your channel becomes, I'll still watch! Congratulations and best of luck as you continue on your health journey!
You are a true blessing. I love your honesty. Congratulations on your health journey. I am 74 and in 2020 I weighed 250 and I now manage my weight between 140 to 147. God is good 😊
I love your videos about simple living as I’m trying to simplify myself as opposed to going out and buying a big haul. I’m trying to use what I already have and shop my home. I would like to see more content regarding healthy recipes,meal planning and gardening. I understand the need for sponsorships and don’t mind watching them as I’m getting free decorating advice. Your videos are very inspirational and you look amazing!
I feel like I know you so much better. I remember your front porch in the fall and believe it was the best one I had ever seen. I have continued to watch even though I am probably more of a maximalist. I am 80 and I love to watch all the great ladies who do this amazing stuff. God bless.
Amy you are such a sweetheart! Thank you for opening up with all of us. We are all so proud of you & you are such a great example to follow. Have a blessed Easter 🐰🌸🐰🌸
Amy, I don’t comment much on videos but I always watch yours as soon as I get a notification. You and Crystal Tara are the only 2 I stalk and watch as soon as it’s available. I find it so calming to watch your videos and you speak like an angel from above. I love your home and your new way of decorating. Although I have watched you since you lived in Georgia and loved those videos too. You have inspired me to “less is more” and found I have being buying less decor. And honestly I think your home and mine look better more simplistic. Thank you so much for sharing your home and thoughts with us. You make my day so much brighter! ☀️
You are by far my favorite you tuber and Instagramer to follow! You are such an inspiration, and I find myself shopping for decor and thinking “is this something Amy would put in her house?” because I admire your style so much! I totally get the funk, but hope to see you back more frequently soon! Thank you for sharing with us!
I only recently found your channel from Alex Garza. I watched some of your more recent videos and found great inspiration to start losing the weight I need to postpartum. Going back and watching this video now after watching more recent videos, you are truly an inspiration. You’re so gentle on yourself and you encourage me to do the same. This is the longest that I have stuck to a calorie deficit and exercise since having my first baby in 2020 thank you for your encouragement.
Love your videos no matter the content. You are just so enjoyable to watch. Calm, relaxing, beautiful videos, always. You do you......we'll keep watching! ❤
Really appreciate your honesty! Love your content, the simplicity but gorgeous home is what keeps me coming back. Your aesthetic is one of the best on RUclips!
Amy, you are such a special person! I watch a lot of decorating channels, and you really stand out! You have such a calm demeanor and your smile lights up your whole face. Keep doing what you enjoy and want to share with us…..we will be here for it! God bless you and your family! 🙏💕🙏
Take a breather, find what makes you happy...but please don't leave this platform. I so enjoy your content, ideas and style.❤ We are blessed to have you and love your open hearted-way of talking and sharing your beautiful home.
I can only speak for myself, but I don't watch for the showy stuff. I watch to spend time with a friend who goes through life and creates a life for her family, like I do. I would never want to invade your privacy, but just knowing how you are doing and what you find joy in is what we look for.
I enjoyed this video. I'm relatively new to your channel, so it was a get to know you time. I appreciate the fact that you're not out shopping every video, spending hundreds of dollars. That's not everybody's lifestyle, mine included. Thank you for all your hard work and can't wait to see what's to come.
I've really enjoyed your channel the past few years. I personally stopped watching the RUclipsrs that were trying too hard to keep up with the Joneses. I like simple every day living content. Like homemaking, cooking, gardening, vlogs, what I eat in a days, etc. Looking forward to your future videos!
Amy I am glad you feel comfortable enough to tell us what you’re feeling. I can only imagine the pressures RUclips creators feel to ‘keep up’. But truly you are such a dear and kind person that I feel no one wants you to feel that way. I personally would continue to watch you even if you just came on and talked about whatever and if you only came on once a month or once a year I would continue to follow you. I just want you to do what is best for you and your family. I love gardening so I’m excited that you are going to share that with us. It’s all good God Bless you Amy ❤️.
I think sometimes when RUclipsrs have certain content they don’t want to change that content even if they evolved in what they’re interested in. We all go through different seasons, so Amy, I enjoy you whatever you would post. It’s your beautiful energy. I love pressure canning, gardening, the art of bread making, the prefect strawberry lemonade recipe lol
I honestly can say this is one of my favorite videos you have done. Thank you for being so open and honest about everything! I love how genuine you are. You look terrific too!
I just found you today. I was searching for cottage garden tours. I love your positive attitude and your view on simplicity. I've only watched 2 videos so far but I know I am going to love your channel. Keep up the good work and please don't worry about flashy content, we need and crave simple living. Thank you
I love Watching your Channel because it’s Calm and Real I am glad you are losing weight for you! You look good. I look forward to any new things you decide to do ❤ Keep it up!
I love the way you decorate because it is you, it isn’t what everyone else in doing. Suggestions for minimalist decorating when you have a ton of family sentimental items and an artistic family. All my grandparents, and both my parents have passed away. I have pictures my mother drew, paintings my brother did, carvings my grandfather did, my sister is a spectacular quilter, and I have some cross stitch that I’ve done. Plus I have all the family photos some dating back to the 1800’s.
Amy, I haven't been watching you long, but I love your gracious demeanor and your smile. You remind me of things that are really important, like bringing peace and calm to myself and the people around me. Your gentle ways make me reflect on my blessings and be grateful for who and what I have. I don't mind the sponsored content, because it is way better than commercials on TV, and some of the products I would never know about except for your videos. Maybe adding the cooking content would alleviate the feeling that you have to do something dramatic for each video (I would like to learn how to make salsa. Can you make it without jalapenos?). You could give us tips on what ingredients are best, like the tomatoes you mentioned. God bless you, Amy!
Loved hanging out with you, Amy!! It is nice to hear your true genuine life story!! I know this platform is hard and can lead to burnout or just feeling inadequate. You do amazing and your kindness and simple homemaking makes your channel so so special!! God has a plan for you and I have no doubts it will be spectacular!! Have a lovely day, my friend!! Thanks for sharing!!! Love in Christ!! ❤
Your gentle and kind spirit is what I most love about this channel. I’ve only been following for a couple years or so and it’s that kindness that brings me back. I’m glad you don’t want to spend lots of money on decor, most people in real life don’t or can’t do that either. We live in a time where so many people have lost all sense of manners, kindness and consideration of others. Speaking without thinking whether truth or not, for many has become a new normal. I think from reading some of the comments that the majority of your subscribers appreciate you for who you are and if that’s not the case, the good news for them is that they will have no trouble finding what they’re looking for elsewhere. Your beauty comes from who you are, a quiet and gentle spirit. You’re a blessing, an encouragement and an inspiration to many! May the Lord bless you this Holy Week. Happy Easter to you and your family.
I love your content and appreciate that you are not trying to keep up with the Joneses. You are inspiring, honest, and a breath of fresh air on RUclips. Keep doing what you do!
I really enjoyed our “chat” you are sooo honest and refreshing! I can tell how much you love your family..❤️I struggle with weight and I’d love to hear your suggestions for snacks and meals…you have no idea what you mean to all of us!!!🌷🌷🌷
I like just anything you can post even if its only a few minutes. I think your honesty is amazing. Spend time doing what only makes you happy. Thats m9re important.
Girl, I'm with you. After my 3rd kid(he's 12 now) I didn't lose all of the weight. Then 2020 happened, and I ate like crap(I'm still in bad habits), and I gained 30 pounds!!! Throw In there my husband losing his job, a subsequent lawsuit, pulling my kids out of public school for a year, and then moving from NY to TN. I have been on the stress bus with unhealthy eating habits for 3 years. I desperately need to get out of this funk I'm still in.
Love your sincerity and humility! I’ve been a long time follower but never comment. You inspire me in many way! Congratulations on your weight loss! Happiness looks good on you! 💗💗
I love anything you have to share! Never feel like you have to keep up with the Joneses. I really don't prefer that kind of content anyway. A day in the life family vlog would be fun! 🤗 💖
This is my first time seeing you and it’s so encouraging to see a young wife and mother nurturing your home and family. I’ll subscribe and look forward to more inspiration from you🌷 I am now an empty nester but loving being a Mimi and still creating a haven for my family. Thanks for sharing your passion for homemaking with others♥️
Amy I ❤❤❤ that you aren’t just buying things just for the sake of creating content. Your channel is so refreshing and so realistic to me. And yes please share gardening…. I was gifted a container and I’m looking forward to any insight
I need to grow like you have and stop the $300 trips to hobby lobby or other home decorating shops. I’m not a “white, green and brown” decorator like you are but I do appreciate your aesthetics and how you bring peace to your home with it. I stared watching you about four years ago when you were in Georgia and I had just moved and it was helpful to get fresh ideas to decorate my new home. I like the idea of your content evolving to be more about simple living. I’m right there with you on the covid stress weight gain. Happy you’re getting back to healthy eating.
I just wanted to drop a note thanking you so much for your transparency and authenticity. You’ve been an inspiration, and I feel that God led me to watch some of your content; I’m so thankful! I’ve been wanting to do better with homemaking and just having a better attitude about where I’m at. You’ve given me practical tools to accomplish that. Anyway, my hubby and I just started a new healthy journey because of your content, and I’m hoping we stick with it. Your recipes, meal planning, and sharing your health journey have been so inspiring! Also, random, but I think we may have gone to Evangel around the same time (I did my undergrad there 09-12), not entirely sure haha. But after I started watching you, your name (and face 😊) seemed so familiar. But I wanted to thank you for putting your tips, journey, wisdom, faith, and things you’ve learned out there. I feel ministered to ❤️
Thank you so much for your transparency . We all go through funks and funky lol! I’m much older than you,starting over from divorce! I really enjoy all the tips and just the sincere efforts you put in for all of us ! I’m sure 99.999% of your viewers understand and appreciate your honesty and are waiting to see the sweet success you so deserve! Pass the biscuits we are all friends here❣️🍓🌿🥗👙💜
I have watch you for sometime now. I don't leave comments but felt the need to today. Your channel is wonderful, inspiring and most of all very peaceful. So good to find you today ❤
Amy, thanks for this video and your honesty. You are such a warm and genuine person. I appreciate that so much. Congratulations on your weight loss. It’s not always an easy thing to do. I always enjoy your videos and look forward to your future videos with any content you choose including sponsorships.
Love your pure, honest and simple lifestyle. I love what you have done with your home and your gardens. I look forward to your new video posts and will continue to enjoy them whether it is once a week or every two. I can only imagine how difficult it is to come up with new ideas as there are so many other decorating channels. I love watching you as you are always so calming and relaxing and have such a gentle nature. Continue to post whenever it suits you - I will always be watching for new posts.
This video was great!! We all have the same feelings and straggles at some point in our lives. Good for you for getting that point where you were ready to do something about your weight! That’s the biggest step. You are looking great!! I really enjoy your videos.
I just wanted to say that I love watching your videos and how genuine you are! Also congratulations on your weight loss! Hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter!
I absolutely love your videos about simple living and LOVE LOVE LOVE your antique simple decor style. We're renovating our house now and I've been looking forward to using your videos as inspiration for so long now. Your flower garden and boxes were such fun videos! I'm also wanting to start gardening in the future so I'll definitely be waiting for those! You keep doing you boo, you're doing fantastic and your village is here for all of it! I too can relate to the weight gain over the last few years and I'm pregnant now on top of it so there's that to add to it lol. I appreciate your candor and sharing your journey! It's very encouraging! You look amazing!
I really enjoyed hearing about your life, and found everything you shared so inspiring! Thank you for being yourself and being honest about the weight loss approach, your mindset around how you want to handle your home/channel! ♥♥♥
Thank you for your vulnerability. So encouraged by your journey and how unashamed you are about your relationship with Christ, your time in His word (in your vlogs) just encouraged me to prioritize Him more. I've watched quite a few of your new videos already (2024) and just wanted to see your older videos. Just want to say thank you. Super encouraged in so many aspects of life💐
Please don’t feel like you, (I.e., us) have to keep up with the Jones. I’d rather see cooking, gardening and some decorating. Even if it’s a 10 minute video is wonderful. We love you and love your videos. And, this video is great! I love that you are down to earth and REAL 😘❤️
She very special and I agree ....I’d take a 10 minute video too
Thank you ! You are a darling girl and great mom! Keep doing what you love. I love your decor style!
Amy…Don’t worry about what people say…You are one of the best out there…We love it when you post…Congrats on your
Weight lost…You look great😘
Totally agree‼️❤️
Thanks for your honesty. I love that about you ❤
I think you’re providing value by NOT doing the same flashy content as others. I appreciate your calm, gentle content that makes me feel like I’m just FaceTiming with a best girlfriend! Please always stay true to yourself and post what makes you happy. ❤
Your channel is a breath of fresh air. I’d much rather see thrifted or diy’d home decor than a shrine to Hobby Lobby. Whatever you do, I’ll be watching!❤️
Amy you are beautiful inside and out-at any weight. I appreciate that you are not trying to "show off" all your (high end) purchases in every video and I don't mind sponsored content-I'm always interested in learning about new things even if it is not for me. I also appreciate that you are soft spoken and thoughtful-unlike so much of the world. Your "style" resonates with me-so I hope you will continue with your channel and look forward to you expanding your content to include gardening and cooking!
Congratulations Amy. Your creative simplicity is appreciated. I enjoy your honesty & joy you share on your channel.
What she said!
Providing simplicity and simple living is in itself VALUABLE!! Love from NYC!! ❤
Oh Amy, The reason look so forward to your videos is because they are beautiful, meaningful, and simple. I want to get as far away from the rat race and keeping up with the jones and every trend as possible. I want more channels like yours. You share what is important. We need all the reminders of that as we can get. You are so real and have such a soft and gentle soul. Please continue to share and help us grow.💝
Couldn't say it better. Right on
I subscribe to many RUclips channels, but there is really only a handful that I watch whenever they post and you dear Amy are one of those. I love your channel, your content and your sweet nature. I’m a committed viewer and would love what ever content you choose to post. Your authenticity comes through whatever you choose to do. Thank you for always thinking of your viewers and always stay true to you!
Dear Amy, I am a 72 year old lady. I live on Social Security. I am not interested in content creators who just buy, buy, buy. Really, that seems so unrealistic and wasteful. I enjoy watching regular people who live creative, clean, wholesome lives. So you have a niche.
I appreciate that you don’t always have to change your rooms. They are beautiful! I’m also happy you don’t always buy, buy, buy, like so many do.I’ve stopped watching some channels because of that. I like your simply, straightforward way. Love all your videos.
I don’t understand why some people have a problem with sponsorship. I think that’s amazing that you guys can actually get something out of it!! ❤❤❤
100% this. I meant to address it in my comment and forgot what else I had wanted to say.
Hi Amy. I so appreciate your honesty in this video. You have such a kind and gentle spirit and are a joy to watch. It doesn't matter to me what content you post on here, it is always inspiring. Thank you for not feeling pressured to show big hauls as all the decor starts to look the same in the homes of other youtubers. You are a genuine and beautiful young woman. I am in my 60s and have learned much from you. Looking forward to watching more videos in the future. God bless and Happy Easter!
Extremely well said
Same here, I'm 62, and we don't need to be impressed. I actually would love watching your weight loss journey becuz I'm really struggling here 🌻🌷👍🪻💞
Much agreed 💯
You are such a warm and genuine, sincere person. Even with not meeting you, or knowing you personally, you give off a very caring vibe. I’m sure you are an amazing mother!
Beautiful description of the value of being a homemaker - the most important job you will ever have. Such a blessing to have the choice. The best parent is a happy parent - so do what makes you happy - inside or outside the home. Support each other’s choices. ❤️
I love the joy in your face when you described homemaker who loves to create a safe haven for your family! ❤️
Carolyn I’m so glad you commented on this. I’ve always when watching think of that phrase “a soft place to land”.
Me too. An incredibly unvalued aspiration!
AMY Loved your chat today. Love you talking about your Christian values. Love that you care so deeply for your family. Children are such a blessing. I PRAY God will bless you in every way possible. Dianna
Bloom where you grow! Would love to see a new season of growing whether it’s your belief or gardening. Mostly just love to see your sunny smile. We’re all behind you whatever you choose. Just love your honesty.
You are so precious!!! Keep doing what you do, at your own pace, and just enjoy life.😊
Hi Amy! I have been a follower of yours for a few years now and you are one of my all time favorite accounts! It’s not so much the content you share (although I do love it) but more about your heart that you share that connects me to you! The love you have for the Lord and for your family exudes from you and you truly bring my heart so much joy! So proud of you for sharing what’s truly on your heart and always staying true to who you are. We all change during different seasons of our lives and that will always be ok!! Also, congrats on your weight loss journey, what an accomplishment! Much love to you always! ❤
Amy, I so appreciate who you are. Honestly, I have been a subscriber from way back when you were in Georgia and it has been such a joy to see how you have evolved. From my perspective, you are at your best in this present moment. I remember your lovely house in the south and it was a showpiece, but the home you live in now radiates your warmth and love. I don't watch you to see how much decor you purchase. I watch you because of the way you share how you create a place to serve your family. Without a doubt you are one of the most talented creators on you tube. All you need to do is be you. Your sincerity, encouragement and grace gives us a soft spot to land where we can learn a tip or two along the way. No need to worry about the value of your channel. It's perfect regardless of what you decide to film. Sometimes we all feel that life would be better if we could only reach the other side of the rainbow when what we really need to hold dear is that there is no place like home. See you in the next video :)
Spring is almost here and everyone’s outlook will get a big boost! I love your content and home and decor ideas but my favorite thing about your channel is your smile. I could sit and watch and listen all day. We watch because we like YOU. I am probably old enough to be your momma and will agree with the less is more makeup. The older I get, the less I wear. I liked the format of this catch up on life video. Blessings to you and your family. 😊
And if I had a son and he brought someone like you home I would be the proudest Mom. Gurl please…you’re amazing!!!!!
You are one of my reasons for beginning my RUclips journey. Your content is always perfect. I completely understand the “ Keeping up with the Jones”. I have prayed about it numerous times…and all I kept hearing from God was “you do you”. I think you are absolutely precious. Thank you for all your inspiration and You do You♥️♥️♥️
Also- I’m sooooo drawn to “Simple living content” these days!! It’s okay to do some soul searching and finding what you’d like to create in this season! We’re rooting for you and we support you!🤍🤍🤍
Amy, thank you for sharing! I follow quite a few you tubers and you are one of my top 5 for sure. One of the things I love about your channel is that you are real! I love your content, and your decorating style. Your home looks so cozy and relaxing. I like neutrals too and we recently painted our walls a light sage green which I love. What you said about loving to be a homemaker resonates with me. That is how I have felt since we first got married and through all the stages of our almost 43 years of marriage. We raised three kids and I always tried to make our home our sanctuary, our haven. We are now grandparents of 8 but I still love being a homemaker.keeping up with the joneses was never my style. Whatever you share I will enjoy because it comes from your heart.
Amy.....You have always given us down to earth knowledge on cooking , cleaning, and decorating...and we thank you. Never feel like you have to follow others. Just what you said earlier....being thankful for everything....your home, family, food. That really made me think too and I thank you. There is times I get in a mood and how wrong is that!!!! I have a home..a loving husband and food on our table. So many do not have this. You are special...stay the way you are and you can't go wrong. God is smiling. Blessings my friend. ♥️🙏Ps....you look great. I too have been trying to move more and eat less. So easy to gain. Lol😣
That's why we love you and your channel. We love simple living, simple decorating, and gardening. You are mine and my sisters favorite. Last year we watch you work in your flowerbed and my sister went home and put in her first ever flowerbed and worked in it all summer. Just keep doing what you're doing.
Wow, thank you!
Gratitude is so important in those seasons.😊
You be you. You're terrific.
So glad to hear of your weight loss & how much healthier and happier you feel! You look great! As for your video content, continue to be yourself. ❤ Post what makes you happy. 😊
I never usually comment on RUclips videos but I felt absolutely compelled to do so this time!
You are so sweet and lovely and I really admire your openness and honesty. I love that you don’t encourage your viewers to spend big, especially in this current environment.
I also love how you encourage us to be grateful for what we already have and to be content in our home making journey. Thank you for being you and bringing a lovely, real, positive, uplifting channel to RUclips.
God bless you 💗
Aw, thank you!!!
Yes, food videos and planning....you do everything so well...love your videos, a favorite of mine....we love all you do, not a bunch of stuff around your home....do food meals for us
Your parents did such a great raising you. I love your comments on gratitude. We are so blessed in this country. There are so many little things for which we can be grateful. Just as you are so forgiving of others, don’t forget to give yourself a little grace as well. Wishing you and your family a blessed Easter!
Thanks!
Well, let me just say… YOU and your channel are my FAVORITE on RUclips. Having said that, I honestly almost enjoy your weekly emails more than content. Let me explain. I love visiting in your home and gaining inspiration from you. It’s fantastic! But for me, the emails seem to be more YOU! Without the filter. More Jesus girl and more of what I relate to. We get your true heart in those communications.
Now I am here and will support any platform you choose. Don’t worry about content and buying all the HB greatest and latest! I personally do not care about that stuff.
I just want to visit my friend, sit on porch and share cup of coffee, do Bible study or devotional and then share whatever is going on in your world. 🤗
I love that you are genuinely true to yourself and family, that’s what makes you so relatable Amy! Love your channel and content. 🌷🥰
Amy that's what draws me to your channel is your authenticity. You bring inspiration and creativity with thrifted and antique finds. It's not always about the new hot trends. It doesn't matter how many videos you put out, but the quality. Continue to be the person we have come to admire and adore. ❤
Hey Amy! I ❤ ur channel. I get so excited when I c u have a new video. Would luv to c some cooking videos!!! I must b in the same funk as u. I used to luv all the extras of buying and watching videos, but for the past year I am down to watching just a few videos and they r all more simplistic home decorating, homesteading, cooking and grocery hauls! U remain my favorite. U rock Amy!❤️
I think your answer about what you love about being a homemaker was an excellent answer. I stayed home and also had a career and I can tell you I worked a lot harder being home for my kids than I ever did in the corporate world. I too feel it is great to have a beautiful, clean, joyful, safe haven for your children. Love you being you! I too love the less is more, but I have way to much.😊
Although I have been a “ring the bell” subscriber for a few years, truthfully I can’t/don’t catch all of your new videos. I’m old enough to be your GMom, so I don’t watch your videos to learn anything new, but I so enjoy watching your channel just because I love your continuous smile, the love you have for your family, the pride you have in your home, the way you decorate simply, yet beautifully. And not gonna lie, your kitchen sink 🤣🥰. So you be yourself, live your life for your family first (I know you do) share what you can, when you can, and sponsor away….if it’s good enough for your Momma, 😚 it’s good enough for me. Spring is here in Virginia, 💚 it’ll be there soon. 🙏🏻Stay safe🙏🏻. You look beautiful and are amazing 🥰
Thank you!
Amy, do what makes you happy. Be your authentic self. You videos are great.
Thanks for sharing! P.S. Simplistic content is sustainable content. I think a shift in what people enjoy will surprise the algorithm. I appreciate your content and look forward to whatever you feel most inspired to share!
I recently started following you & I love how you are genuine & shine. I believe it’s healthy to step back & look at your business & see what may need to change just as we grow with our maturity. At 67 myself I have never regretted being home with my family & you are right to keep that your #1 goal. You are beautiful & blessed for sure.
Love what I see, what you can post. Don’t think all of your subscribers are waiting about certain contents. We are there because of you, your style and your vibe. Be quiet with what you propose.
Aw, thank you!
You are one of the RUclipsrs I'm most excited to see when you post. I love your simple life content and it really helps me feel grateful for what I have. I'd love to see cooking and gardening content! No matter what your channel becomes, I'll still watch! Congratulations and best of luck as you continue on your health journey!
You are a true blessing. I love your honesty. Congratulations on your health journey. I am 74 and in 2020 I weighed 250 and I now manage my weight between 140 to 147. God is good 😊
Thanks!
I love your videos about simple living as I’m trying to simplify myself as opposed to going out and buying a big haul. I’m trying to use what I already have and shop my home. I would like to see more content regarding healthy recipes,meal planning and gardening. I understand the need for sponsorships and don’t mind watching them as I’m getting free decorating advice. Your videos are very inspirational and you look amazing!
Love your honesty...keep being you...❤
I feel like I know you so much better. I remember your front porch in the fall and believe it was the best one I had ever seen. I have continued to watch even though I am probably more of a maximalist. I am 80 and I love to watch all the great ladies who do this amazing stuff. God bless.
I love that you are sponsored! That's free enterprise. You are worth it. ❤❤
Thanks😊
Amy you are such a sweetheart! Thank you for opening up with all of us. We are all so proud of you & you are such a great example to follow. Have a blessed Easter 🐰🌸🐰🌸
Thanks!
Amy, I don’t comment much on videos but I always watch yours as soon as I get a notification. You and Crystal Tara are the only 2 I stalk and watch as soon as it’s available. I find it so calming to watch your videos and you speak like an angel from above. I love your home and your new way of decorating. Although I have watched you since you lived in Georgia and loved those videos too. You have inspired me to “less is more” and found I have being buying less decor. And honestly I think your home and mine look better more simplistic. Thank you so much for sharing your home and thoughts with us. You make my day so much brighter! ☀️
Thank you!
You are by far my favorite you tuber and Instagramer to follow! You are such an inspiration, and I find myself shopping for decor and thinking “is this something Amy would put in her house?” because I admire your style so much! I totally get the funk, but hope to see you back more frequently soon! Thank you for sharing with us!
I only recently found your channel from Alex Garza. I watched some of your more recent videos and found great inspiration to start losing the weight I need to postpartum. Going back and watching this video now after watching more recent videos, you are truly an inspiration. You’re so gentle on yourself and you encourage me to do the same. This is the longest that I have stuck to a calorie deficit and exercise since having my first baby in 2020 thank you for your encouragement.
Aw, thank you!!!
you are beautiful inside and out and congratulations on your weight loss. You are very inspiring 😊
Congratulations on your weight loss! I always enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing!
Love your videos no matter the content. You are just so enjoyable to watch. Calm, relaxing, beautiful videos, always. You do you......we'll keep watching! ❤
I love your style but most of all your sweet spirit.
Really appreciate your honesty! Love your content, the simplicity but gorgeous home is what keeps me coming back. Your aesthetic is one of the best on RUclips!
Amy, you are such a special person! I watch a lot of decorating channels, and you really stand out! You have such a calm demeanor and your smile lights up your whole face. Keep doing what you enjoy and want to share with us…..we will be here for it! God bless you and your family! 🙏💕🙏
Take a breather, find what makes you happy...but please don't leave this platform. I so enjoy your content, ideas and style.❤ We are blessed to have you and love your open hearted-way of talking and sharing your beautiful home.
Wow, girl you are very inspiring in such a positive way. I enjoy checking in with you. Many thanks.
I can only speak for myself, but I don't watch for the showy stuff. I watch to spend time with a friend who goes through life and creates a life for her family, like I do. I would never want to invade your privacy, but just knowing how you are doing and what you find joy in is what we look for.
I enjoyed this video. I'm relatively new to your channel, so it was a get to know you time. I appreciate the fact that you're not out shopping every video, spending hundreds of dollars. That's not everybody's lifestyle, mine included. Thank you for all your hard work and can't wait to see what's to come.
I've really enjoyed your channel the past few years. I personally stopped watching the RUclipsrs that were trying too hard to keep up with the Joneses. I like simple every day living content. Like homemaking, cooking, gardening, vlogs, what I eat in a days, etc. Looking forward to your future videos!
Amy I am glad you feel comfortable enough to tell us what you’re feeling. I can only imagine the pressures RUclips creators feel to ‘keep up’. But truly you are such a dear and kind person that I feel no one wants you to feel that way. I personally would continue to watch you even if you just came on and talked about whatever and if you only came on once a month or once a year I would continue to follow you. I just want you to do what is best for you and your family. I love gardening so I’m excited that you are going to share that with us. It’s all good God Bless you Amy ❤️.
I think sometimes when RUclipsrs have certain content they don’t want to change that content even if they evolved in what they’re interested in. We all go through different seasons, so Amy, I enjoy you whatever you would post. It’s your beautiful energy. I love pressure canning, gardening, the art of bread making, the prefect strawberry lemonade recipe lol
I honestly can say this is one of my favorite videos you have done. Thank you for being so open and honest about everything! I love how genuine you are. You look terrific too!
I just found you today. I was searching for cottage garden tours. I love your positive attitude and your view on simplicity. I've only watched 2 videos so far but I know I am going to love your channel. Keep up the good work and please don't worry about flashy content, we need and crave simple living. Thank you
Aw, thank you so much. I’m so glad you’re here!
you are one of my favorites! I love your channel! I love the simplicity and how calming it is. I feel like we are a lot alike!
Keep being you and show up however feels right in the season you are in. ❤
Thanks for being here❤️
I love Watching your Channel because it’s Calm and Real I am glad you are losing weight for you! You look good. I look forward to any new things you decide to do ❤ Keep it up!
I love the way you decorate because it is you, it isn’t what everyone else in doing. Suggestions for minimalist decorating when you have a ton of family sentimental items and an artistic family. All my grandparents, and both my parents have passed away. I have pictures my mother drew, paintings my brother did, carvings my grandfather did, my sister is a spectacular quilter, and I have some cross stitch that I’ve done. Plus I have all the family photos some dating back to the 1800’s.
Thank you!
Amy, I haven't been watching you long, but I love your gracious demeanor and your smile. You remind me of things that are really important, like bringing peace and calm to myself and the people around me. Your gentle ways make me reflect on my blessings and be grateful for who and what I have. I don't mind the sponsored content, because it is way better than commercials on TV, and some of the products I would never know about except for your videos. Maybe adding the cooking content would alleviate the feeling that you have to do something dramatic for each video (I would like to learn how to make salsa. Can you make it without jalapenos?). You could give us tips on what ingredients are best, like the tomatoes you mentioned. God bless you, Amy!
Loved hanging out with you, Amy!! It is nice to hear your true genuine life story!! I know this platform is hard and can lead to burnout or just feeling inadequate. You do amazing and your kindness and simple homemaking makes your channel so so special!! God has a plan for you and I have no doubts it will be spectacular!! Have a lovely day, my friend!! Thanks for sharing!!! Love in Christ!! ❤
Your gentle and kind spirit is what I most love about this channel. I’ve only been following for a couple years or so and it’s that kindness that brings me back. I’m glad you don’t want to spend lots of money on decor, most people in real life don’t or can’t do that either. We live in a time where so many people have lost all sense of manners, kindness and consideration of others. Speaking without thinking whether truth or not, for many has become a new normal. I think from reading some of the comments that the majority of your subscribers appreciate you for who you are and if that’s not the case, the good news for them is that they will have no trouble finding what they’re looking for elsewhere. Your beauty comes from who you are, a quiet and gentle spirit. You’re a blessing, an encouragement and an inspiration to many! May the Lord bless you this Holy Week. Happy Easter to you and your family.
I love your content and appreciate that you are not trying to keep up with the Joneses. You are inspiring, honest, and a breath of fresh air on RUclips. Keep doing what you do!
Aw, thanks!😊❤️
I really enjoyed our “chat” you are sooo honest and refreshing! I can tell how much you love your family..❤️I struggle with weight and I’d love to hear your suggestions for snacks and meals…you have no idea what you mean to all of us!!!🌷🌷🌷
I like just anything you can post even if its only a few minutes. I think your honesty is amazing. Spend time doing what only makes you happy. Thats m9re important.
Thank you!
Girl, I'm with you. After my 3rd kid(he's 12 now) I didn't lose all of the weight. Then 2020 happened, and I ate like crap(I'm still in bad habits), and I gained 30 pounds!!! Throw In there my husband losing his job, a subsequent lawsuit, pulling my kids out of public school for a year, and then moving from NY to TN. I have been on the stress bus with unhealthy eating habits for 3 years. I desperately need to get out of this funk I'm still in.
Keeping it 100 - one of the reasons I continue to watch this channel.
Love your sincerity and humility! I’ve been a long time follower but never comment. You inspire me in many way! Congratulations on your weight loss! Happiness looks good on you! 💗💗
I love anything you have to share! Never feel like you have to keep up with the Joneses. I really don't prefer that kind of content anyway. A day in the life family vlog would be fun! 🤗 💖
Thank you for your honesty.
This is my first time seeing you and it’s so encouraging to see a young wife and mother nurturing your home and family. I’ll subscribe and look forward to more inspiration from you🌷 I am now an empty nester but loving being a Mimi and still creating a haven for my family. Thanks for sharing your passion for homemaking with others♥️
Thank you so much!
Amy I ❤❤❤ that you aren’t just buying things just for the sake of creating content. Your channel is so refreshing and so realistic to me. And yes please share gardening…. I was gifted a container and I’m looking forward to any insight
I need to grow like you have and stop the $300 trips to hobby lobby or other home decorating shops. I’m not a “white, green and brown” decorator like you are but I do appreciate your aesthetics and how you bring peace to your home with it. I stared watching you about four years ago when you were in Georgia and I had just moved and it was helpful to get fresh ideas to decorate my new home. I like the idea of your content evolving to be more about simple living. I’m right there with you on the covid stress weight gain. Happy you’re getting back to healthy eating.
Thank you!
Amy you are a beautiful soul. I’m new to your channel and I appreciate all that you had to say. Do what you love and it all works out
I just wanted to drop a note thanking you so much for your transparency and authenticity. You’ve been an inspiration, and I feel that God led me to watch some of your content; I’m so thankful! I’ve been wanting to do better with homemaking and just having a better attitude about where I’m at. You’ve given me practical tools to accomplish that. Anyway, my hubby and I just started a new healthy journey because of your content, and I’m hoping we stick with it. Your recipes, meal planning, and sharing your health journey have been so inspiring! Also, random, but I think we may have gone to Evangel around the same time (I did my undergrad there 09-12), not entirely sure haha. But after I started watching you, your name (and face 😊) seemed so familiar. But I wanted to thank you for putting your tips, journey, wisdom, faith, and things you’ve learned out there. I feel ministered to ❤️
That is so sweet, thank you so much! I did graduate from Evangel, small world!🙌🏼❤️
Thank you so much for your transparency . We all go through funks and funky lol!
I’m much older than you,starting over from divorce! I really enjoy all the tips and just the sincere efforts you put in for all of us !
I’m sure 99.999% of your viewers understand and appreciate your honesty and are waiting to see the sweet success you so deserve!
Pass the biscuits we are all friends here❣️🍓🌿🥗👙💜
I have watch you for sometime now. I don't leave comments but felt the need to today. Your channel is wonderful, inspiring and most of all very peaceful. So good to find you today ❤
Aw, thank you!❤️
Amy, thanks for this video and your honesty. You are such a warm and genuine person. I appreciate that so much. Congratulations on your weight loss. It’s not always an easy thing to do. I always enjoy your videos and look forward to your future videos with any content you choose including sponsorships.
Love your pure, honest and simple lifestyle. I love what you have done with your home and your gardens. I look forward to your new video posts and will continue to enjoy them whether it is once a week or every two. I can only imagine how difficult it is to come up with new ideas as there are so many other decorating channels. I love watching you as you are always so calming and relaxing and have such a gentle nature. Continue to post whenever it suits you - I will always be watching for new posts.
Aw, thanks!!!😊
This video was great!! We all have the same feelings and straggles at some point in our lives. Good for you for getting that point where you were ready to do something about your weight! That’s the biggest step. You are looking great!! I really enjoy your videos.
I like the sponsored videos. It introduces me to new things. Keep doing what your heart leads you to do!!!
I just wanted to say that I love watching your videos and how genuine you are! Also congratulations on your weight loss! Hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter!
I absolutely love your videos about simple living and LOVE LOVE LOVE your antique simple decor style. We're renovating our house now and I've been looking forward to using your videos as inspiration for so long now. Your flower garden and boxes were such fun videos! I'm also wanting to start gardening in the future so I'll definitely be waiting for those! You keep doing you boo, you're doing fantastic and your village is here for all of it! I too can relate to the weight gain over the last few years and I'm pregnant now on top of it so there's that to add to it lol. I appreciate your candor and sharing your journey! It's very encouraging! You look amazing!
Thanks SO much!❤️
I love your videos. I love your home and how you decorate. Love your cute cottage garden. I just love everything about your channel ❤
Follow you're authentic passion..the alignment and peace will follow
I really enjoyed hearing about your life, and found everything you shared so inspiring! Thank you for being yourself and being honest about the weight loss approach, your mindset around how you want to handle your home/channel! ♥♥♥
Thank you for your vulnerability. So encouraged by your journey and how unashamed you are about your relationship with Christ, your time in His word (in your vlogs) just encouraged me to prioritize Him more. I've watched quite a few of your new videos already (2024) and just wanted to see your older videos. Just want to say thank you. Super encouraged in so many aspects of life💐
Aw, thank you❤️
You look great!!
