Making a Halloween diorama in an old lantern
Hi everyone!
Happy Halloween!! This week is a 1st for me, I'm doing a collaboration video, with myself Pumpkin Becki! Two years ago I made a Halloween Fairy Garden, filled with a miniature graveyard. This year I'm repurposing the miniatures in an indoor Halloween diorama, making all the landscape scenery and putting it in an old lantern.
Stay right to the end and tell me what you think of the special effect video, then pop over to @PumpkinBecki and watch the original Fairy Garden video.
Enjoy!
Love
Rebecca xx

Autumn wreath project - Toadstools, felt and a fairy door
Переглядів 75Рік тому
Hi everyone, In this video I'll be making an adorable Autumn wreath from a mixture of real and made components. There's polymer clay toadstools, leaves cut from felt, acorns and a miniature garden fence and gate. This was so much fun to do, the end result makes me smile so hard, and it used so many different crafty skills! This is quite a long video, so grab your favourite beverage, some tasty ...

I'm using my favourite acrylic paints, Jo Sonja Matte Flow acrylics from Chroma. My owl is in a beautiful, ethereal moonlit forest, perched on a moss covered branch. We'll go from sketch to completed painting, so grab a drink and a snack and settle in. Enjoy! Love Rebecca xx...

I received her book "The New Color Mixing Companion" for Christmas, and I've been itching to have a try at some of the examples. My practice session goes a little off piste, but I still achieve something rather lovely, I learned lessons along the way, and after all, isn't that what it's all about? Enjoy! L...

Hi everyone, This week I'm making another "thing" to help me feel truly Tudor when I take part in "Hever Through History" this August Bank Holiday, at Hever Castle.

My Polymer Clay Crown wins the parade!

Hi everyone, This week's video was a Subscriber suggestion from the lovely Alan. He wanted to see how I got on at the Jubilee Crown Making Competition and Parade, and what other people's crowns were like. It was a tricky one because there were so many little ones taking part, so we stuck with still images and blurred/blocked peoples faces for privacy. *Spoiler Alert* I was crowned Best Queen, f...

Portable Painter Palette unboxing & choosing 18 watercolours!
This is so beautiful! It works good with real candles too? I mean, the heat will not damage the piece? Thank you! ❤
Nice! Yes I very much want that palette for plein air … maybe it would help me be more minimal! Hmmmm But it boggles my brain to create big swatch mixing charts .. damn my adhd brain. Keep up the good work & keep painting. I need more painting pals …
I decorate eggs for my primary hobby but this year I got hooked on air dry clay projects. Am very impressed by your construction and finishing ideas! Hope to see more from you!
Thank you so much Karen, I really appreciate it, and you taking the time to comment xx
Very nice project. Simple and pretty!
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it 😊 xx
You’re so clever, it’s fab!! Xx
Thank you so much! 💓 and thank you for taking the time to comment too, I really appreciate it xx
Thats lovely! And can be re-used every year!
Thank you so much BVB ❤️ I love decorating for autumn 🍂 xx
Fantastic! Thank you.
Thank you so much Mark, I really appreciate it, and you taking the time to comment xx
You did an Imperial job. I watched the Coronation from Oklahoma, America. I was born 65 years ago in Kings Lynn, but have been in U.S. since I was 6 weeks old. I plan on making micro mini crowns for Barbie and Ken. Thanks for your incredibly fun video. Barb
Thank you so much Barb, I really appreciate it xx Oh Norfolk is beautiful, I hope you've been able to visit it xx
OMG!! I love it!!!
Thank you so much Jesus xx
As someone that likes to fool around with polymer clay this video was right up my alley. Great Video - thank you.
Yay, that's great to hear 😊 Thank you so much xx
Oh those colors sooo stunning! I am loving them! I must also say that background noise makes me feel right at home!😅 I have a Lil guinea pig named Bowie as in David Bowie! Bo bo for short, he is long haired and tritoned!😂 thanks for sharing your lovely colors!!❤
Thank you so much Jackie xx I've had Guinea Pigs as pets since I was a little girl, they are very special creatures aren't they xx
Lovely!😃👑
Thank you Connie xx
I am so totally IMPRESSED! I was more and more amazed as the crown evolved. The completed crown truly appears to be a Medieval treasure!❤ Thank you for sharing your amazing creativity.
Oh Melba, thank you so much! It was a labour of love, but absolutely worth the time and effort it took to make it...and now it's led me into the world of Tudor reenactment, something I never thought I'd be able to do :) xx
@@CreatedbyRebecca ❤️❤️
Your crown is amazing. I hope you won the crown contest.
I certainly did durinda, there's an update video showing what happened :) xx
Congratulations your majesty😊
Why thank you kind hallieshouse13 :) xx
It looks fantastic! Please film the other crowns…wishing you good luck 🤞🏻
It's pretty...but not what I expected...I guess I thought it would be more delicate
Thank you Finn xx The limitations of the material , and the likelihood of me dropping it meant that chunkiness was necessary :D xx
@CreatedbyRebecca I have never made anything like that. I think it would be great fun and I think it would challenge my creativity....I too would probably end up with something chunky. Yours looked medieval and completely appropriate. I would have tried to go for a delicate tiara and messed it all up. If they have another contest...are you going to make something else? If you do...please video it....I'd love to see how you do 😁👑
@@Finny_finn_finn Thank you <3 I haven't heard anything from the village, but they might do something for the King's coronation...I'll keep my eyes peeled :) xx
@CreatedbyRebecca that's in May...right?
@CreatedbyRebecca I'm not sure the time difference...but I have Saturday May 6th...I don't know what time in the US...but I'm wanting to watch....HISTORY in the making 🤴🏻
Oh goodness...I would love a crown making competition...how fun
It was brilliant fun, when I arrived for the parade in my 20 year old wedding dress, the little ones thought I was a real Queen and started curtseying :D xx
@@CreatedbyRebecca awwwwe....sounds like a lovely day 😊....your Royal Highness 👸🏻 ❤️
La bace donde la compro
great job with all of the feathers 🥰
Thank you fd xx I have completely fallen for the Northern Spotted and Barred Owls, I'm delighted by how it turned out xx
Half hour later... Nostalgia, I used to spend hours and hours drawing and painting feather details. I need to pull me finger out and start doing painting again. I have too many hobbies to do everything tho and the bonsai will soon be calling too. Thanks, my fingers are twitching... Where's me 2B gone...?!
Glad you got to see it Alan xx My Bonsai are calling to me too, and the start of reenactment season is upon us...it's going to get incredibly busy :D xx
I tuned in late so im gona watch from the start
Thank you Alan ❤️ xx
your white trees look great and the texture helps them to look handmade, adds to their appeal😀 that clay is great for simple projects 🙂 and it worked really well to get pawprint impressions when our dog passed away, good to have for memories
Thank you so much Fuzzydragon xx It's lovely to hear from you xx A paw print keepsake, that's a wonderful way to remember them xx
Lovely. I can make these for next Christmas for my children. They're grown with their own homes. I always forget what I've seen by time I usually see these, and I won't be in a hurry to get them done. Thank you and God bless
Thank you so much Rosemary ❤️ I'm very glad this project has given you inspiration xx
I think your a bit early with this one. Christmas isnt for another 11 months.
🤣🤣 Yes indeed, but I'm playing catch-up from Christmas Covid 🤣🤣 I hope you enjoyed it nonetheless Alan xx
Wishing you all well. I like balls and sphears, those testers look so interesting.
Thank you so much Alan ❤️ Hope you've had a lovely festive season and wishing you a Happy New Year xx
Fancy forgetting to change over to my other profile before I replied 🙃 Xx
Thank you for this inspirational lesson. The finished painting is beautiful. I've been looking for videos showing the Jo Sonja acrylics at work. I'm going to need more colors now. Mark in North Carolina
Hi Mark, welcome to my channel, I'm so pleased you enjoyed watching, I'm particularly proud of this piece. I LOVE Jo Sonja paints, I've been using them since the mid 1990s when I was introduced to them at a Folk Art painting class. At the time they were hard to come by here in the UK, but they handled so differently to acrylics I'd used previously that I had to get my hands on more. I haven't been disappointed yet :) And a painting like this shows they aren't just for Folk Art/ Barge Painting/ Scandi techiques, they work perfectly for more traditional paintings too xx
That looks like a right lot of fun! Awesome getup!!
It was fantastic Chris! I grinned the whole time 😍
Thats why we dont get any bonsai updates
And it's alsi partly because someone complained I was focusing too much on Bonsai...that's why you got a dahlia video and a sempervivum one 😏 I'll do you a Bonsai video very soon, promise xx
You all look very impressive. Some serious work went in to those outfits. I was wondering over the weekend if you would show us. I hope Henry has better health than King Henry. Thank you for sharing.
Aww thank you Alan 😊 I'm so glad my brother visited, or I wouldn't have had any photos to share - not being able to have modern things in our area 😁 The gentleman in orange is my "father" Thomas Boleyn 😊xx
that works perfectly for the time period 😀
Thank you so much! I'm getting so excited now...9 sleeps to go :D xx
Just a simple bag she says… No one would know if there was no lining.. but you just had to go all out! 😂🤣 Great work Rebecca as always! I always enjoy your abundance of creative talent. 🐦💙
:D Yes as we say "in for a penny, in for a pound" :D Thank you so much Jay, you're such a sweetheart xx
Nice little design. Is it an authentic pattern? Did someone advise you on style? (Did i miss that part) I bought some Fimo to try a bit of jewel crafting but not done it yet. Herstmonceaux has been canceled so i thought maybe i would aim for Hever instead but alas... I had a small heart attack last week and im not allowed to drive for 4 wks, D'oh !. On lots of pills now but prospects are good, no long term worries. Is your hubby taking part in your event, Costuming up etc?
Alan I wish you a speedy recovery! 🙏
@@BlueJayBonsai Thank you
Oh Alan, I'm so sorry you've been unwell. I hope you never have a repeat of that xx And what a shame your excursion aren't happening :( I did lots of research, so the pattern I drew is based around paintings, engravings and extant examples of belt bags and pouches of the time. I also watch lots of historical costuming channels, and Morgan Donner made a beautiful 15th Century frame purse which inspired me to try. No my husband isn't getting directly involved at this stage, which means he can look after the dogs while I'm away. However he is always my extra pair of hands and eyes, suggests things I could make...but who knows, maybe in the future he'll join me :) xx
What a pretty bag. The reenactment at Hever castle sounds like a lot of fun.
I'm so excited Margaret! I can't believe I've been invited to take part, it's a dream come true 😍 xx
Oops, I replied as my alter-ego :D xx
So glad I found your channel. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video!
Hi Kelsey, welcome! Thank you so much xx I have a lot of craft and art passions, so my content will become increasingly varied as time goes on, I really hope you enjoy it xx
I been putting my nose up to buff titanium.... thinking its was just a fad color...and it might be. But man, I just picked a tube up since it was on sale and boy am I having fun with it! I dont think it's a must have, but it is a must try!
I completely agree koskey 😊 I didn't understand why you would want to add an opaque quality to a transparent medium but I was wrong, and I'm really enjoying the subtle changes it brings to my palette 😊xx
I love your gentle style of painting. Thanks for your instruction. It's so helpful to study other artist's techniques. Lovely finish!
Thank you so much Joyce, I really appreciate that xx
thats so cool you are going to re-enact a tudor person at Hever castle 😀
I know! An actual real historical person, at their actual home!! :D I can't quite believe it myself :)
Interesting listening to you and seeing the process. Not a very manly item. I was hoping to visit Herctmoceaux, Iv been saving to buy a manly sword. Iv been getting a sort of outfit together, more fantasy than authentic but im learning a bit. Proper re-enactment groups are great for authenticity. Iv chatted with many period groups over the years. very interesting too and now im an expert on everything (nothing). How will re-enactment be in 500 years from now. Imagine someone saying "I like the 20th century Elizebethan fasion... !? Soooo many different fashions you wouldnt know whats what. well we do have film and photos now but i bet it will still be confusing. Rock, punk, goth, western, mods, biker, teddy, hout couture(whatever) spives, skin heds, flappers, 40's, 50's, 60's, glam, drain pipes, flairs, buisnes suits, omg... endless
Hi Alan, welcome :) Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a comment. I love watching videos from historical costumers, and with my family history it's so exciting to be able to reenact as Mary Boleyn, and at her home as well. I can't believe how lucky I am, and I'm looking forward to becoming part of the reenactment group and really learning from them. Herstmonceux is absolutely beautiful, well worth a visit! You're absolutely right, when you think 1920's fashion, you instantly think of flapper dresses and men in suits, they are icons of their time. What would be the stand-out fashion of 2020's? xx
The mix of you painting, chatting with other visitors, and sharing information about the park is really nice. It feels like vicariously going on a little painting trip with you. Your voice is so calming and pleasant to listen to. And the paintings turned out lovely!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely comment, I really appreciate it xx It was a beautiful day and really enjoyable to be out with my dogs and painting supplies. I'm glad you enjoyed it too xx
Well, I've heard back from Katie at KWARTSCreations, and she says both pans are definitely Midnight Violet. I wonder whether the simple fact that these are handmade watercolours means there are subtle differences between batches...or it was just wishful thinking that they were different :D xx
Lovely video! And such beautiful colors!!! Aaaahhh i want them!!
Hi Nadeane, yes these colour are gorgeous! My mouth was literally watering while I was swatching :D xx
Drake is gorgeous!! the midnight violets look like 2 seperate colours to me
Hi Fuzzydragons :) xx Yes, I'm obsessed with Drake and just want to use it on all the things :D KWARTSCreations have told me they are both Midnight Violet :( I wonder whether the two pans are from separate batches, and that's why there appears to be a subtle difference.
that would def make sense them being from different batches
Love your technique and conversation. The visitors were a sweet treat. I am a paper fusion card artist. I am enjoying expanding to include some watercolor into the mix. Thanks for contributing to my education and confidence. Sincerely, Marjorie from Georgia US
Hi Marjorie, welcome to my channel! Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely comment, I really appreciate it xx What is paper fusion? I do lots of card making and do stamping, heat embossing, dry embossing, alcohol markers, watercolours, shaker cards, die cutting, and love mixing up lots of different papers from my stash...when I can bear to cut into the beautiful sheets! :D xx
Wow thank you for taking the time to acknowledge my comment. Though I never expect it I do really appreciate knowing that my expressions find a willing acceptance. Keep up the good work. M
@@marjoriepark1198 You are very welcome indeed Marjorie, with 2 channels (this being my newest), I can get a little behind with comments, but I do my utmost to respond...it just might take a while xx
The beautiful blues of Sir Francis Drake are the clear winner in my opinion! I think Mystic is a great colour for a recently crowned modern Queen however! 🤣😁🐦💙
🤣 Thank you Jay 😘 Somehow I thought you'd like Drake the best xx
That dog!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️. Lovely painting 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Denise :) and yes, Katie certainly knows how to work a crowd :D
most people are so nice and just interested in what you are doing when you are drawing/painting outside and hey having a random dog to talk to is great too 😀 the paintings turned out lovely 😀
Yes I agree, and I think with a little finessing of my equipment, and more outdoor practice I'll relax a bit more :) Katie is such a cutie, I really couldn't have wished for a better dog (and Darcy too obviously :) )xx
Lovely paintings.
Thank you Margaret, very much appreciated xx Hope you're keeping well in this heat xx
Ello ello ello... looks like im the first one here this time. Nice bit of work, the ol gent was right. I wanted to rub that little furry tummy too. Thanks for taking us along.
Alan you're so kind, thank you. He was such a lovely man, and a delight to chat to. Katie certainly knows how to work the crowd :D xx
Sennelier pans fit. I also just ordered the extra pans for the brush slots. They are so cute and now I have 18 colors in my palette. They have new pan for the Micro palettes too.
Do they, that's very handy to know if you want to switch colours out. I think Portable Painter must have watched my video and thought "what a genius idea, 18 colours instead of 12!"...I haven't seen any royalty cheques though :D ;) xx
