Wow..not surprised at another awesome project!..I have real succulents and cactus..I’m addicted..I even have made them out of clay..these logs would look great with succulents and sm cactus growing too..another project to do..!!!!cant wait for the crochet mushroom video..I can make those in the evening while watching tv!..u are soo amazing at your creativity!!!thsnks for sharing !!!
ohhh that sounds awesome for sure! Thank you for the kind words! I surely hope I can get the crochet video up soon. I'm tackling a lot at once, trying to prepare some things before I leave on a trip (Aug 12). I'm filming how I did the new background atm, that's how the logs got done. There's just so many things in a forest! lol
After randomly stumbling onto your channel, I was immediately impressed, awe struck, and inspired. You are wonderful girl! I've been battling depression since the passing of my Mom, and for over 3 years I have not been creative, or motivated to do much of anything. My creative/artistic trait was a gift from my Mom and she was always so proud we shared that. I know it would sadden her to know that I have done nothing with it for these past years. I wanted to let you know how grateful I am to find your channel. The wonderful creations you make pulled me out of my fog and I'm proud to say I just finished staining the wood floors and walls in my first attempt at a coffee can Gnome home! My Mom would absolutely love everything you do, and I simply cannot thank you enough for inspiring me. Keep up the amazing work, and I look forward to following along and learning.
first let me offer my sincerest sympathies on the loss of your precious mom, my heart goes out to you. If I could I would give you a BIG hug. I'm so sorry! I can relate to your feelings, I still have my mom but I know that my time with her will be over sooner than later as she is elderly now and facing health issues. We are close, we phone or see each other every day. She is my partner in crime, lol my everything. The very thought of having to say goodbye forever grips my throat. I try not to go there and just enjoy the time we have. I'm so honored to be part of the renewing you feel, that means more to me than I can ever say. I wish you many peace-filled creative days as you continue healing and know your mom is close by as you create your Gnome Home! I'm so happy to know that you will be watching as I continue on this journey too. Lots of love ~ Sharon
I'm always so excited to see your project taking shape. It will be like walking into an enchanted wonderland every time you walk into the room. Its so inspiring for me so thank-you so much for inviting us into that magical world you are creating and giving us all some amazing ideas and inspiration to create our own little wonderland. Looking so forward to what you have coming up next.
yay!! I'm so happy to help with the mojo. I know the feeling when it gets lost and trying to find it again, lol I'm so glad you like the new additions, that means a lot :)
Love this.. And drybrushing is one of my favorite techniques...its coming along nicely... I am definitely on the road to making a mushroom dollhouse first... I have 2, 4" elves that need shelter from little hands and curious minds... 😂 8 grands.... Nothing is sacred!
Amazing! I've always wondered how some tree craftworks are so realistic ... now I know. Kudos to you for showing us how to do it. I will try it out soon.
How happy I am too have found your channel! I didn't even know I was missing such wonderful opportunities. Thank you! Love the hollow trees, the crochet mushrooms and the little gnome.
I love your work! Thank you so much for taking the time to teach us! I'm a home crafter and REALLY appreciate this! Love Love Love your tree video too!
GENIUS!!! Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to figure out where to find a huge log (my area is full of ONLY palm trees), and now I can just make my own.
I am so glad this came up on my feed. thank you for showing us this. now can make hides for my daughters and mine, lizard and blue tongue skinks houses. also for her snakes, and my black forest scorpion. Paper is so much better for wood and rock texture by how yours came out. you have a new subscriber, now on to watch more.
You have no idea how hard I struggled to figure this out. You make it so easy to follow. I'm going to try this once I get everything. I might add a few owls and maybe a squirrel. Thank you so much for this.
I made this and it’s great. Thank you so much. It sits in my fairy garden. I used air dry clay on one and fimo on the other. Thought I’d give that a try x
that is badass.....thanks for making this video. I thought it was going to be some really hard process but you made it look nice and achievable. Thanks!
Thank you for your knowledge and crafty skills. I very much appreciate your channel. I makes Stainless steel tumblers and have taken your technique of making gnome trees to the tumbler world .. I now have tree stumps molded around my 30 oz cups ...
This is super helpful!! I'm about to attempt my first paper clay sculpture, and this video gives me a lot of guidance on how to proceed. Thanks for sharing your creativity! 💙
Very clever 🤔 and I like your technique 😉 I just purchased a log from a retail store... never again 😂 thank you for the demonstration 🙏 I've already got several ideas I'm ready to start on... sincerely MEK
ABSOLUTELY!! I was blown away by how well you had everything laid out for what supplies we’ll need; plus, how well (lightening) you can see😊. Then the crafting process is very detailed with easy to follow instructions! You’re a great teacher. I just had to share how much I enjoyed this video (and all your videos). Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these so people like me can watch, learn, and practice for FREE! I super appreciate your hard work 😓 🙏🏽😊🤗
Hi ...I've just seen your video ...and i must say you are a very good teacher ...I liked the way you've explained every detailed ...and you have a beautiful voice ...so thank you for this ...I've subscribed for new stuff ..keep up the great job ....I'm from Trinidad
Just fabulous, I love it! Every time you release a video, I get so excited & look forward to making something similar. Then the little demon on my other shoulder starts telling me "you know you actually have to get out of bed to do what Sharon's doing?" & reminds me of how unproductive I am by comparison. So tomorrow I WILL get out of bed & achieve something, if only to annoy the chronic illness demons lol
thank you so much! Please don't ever feel that way. I totally understand chronic illness and the toll it takes. It was last year I had just gotten out of the hospital after a lengthy stay, I had been dreaming about my Gnome Home while I was in there, (that kept me sane!) Anyway, once at home, my dreams and my energy were on different planets. I remember I pulled a chair up in front of the gnome's house, knowing I was even too weak to spin the house even though it's on wheels. So I just turned the lights on inside, sat back and just thought about things. What I might do here and do there. It felt amazing just to think about it. It gave me something to look forward to and also helped pass that time away that would otherwise be wasted by staring at the ceiling. So you take your time, take as much as you need, and work at your own pace. Whatever you do, or whatever you can dream of, be proud you did that and look forward to tomorrow
I know you get it Sharon, & most of my grizzling is kinda tongue-in-cheek, I believe if you don't find some way of laughing at it all, it can take over your thoughts. I think of the old Tom & Jerry cartoons where Tom has an Angel on 1 shoulder & a Demon on the other, whispering in his ear about whether he should be mischievous or not, only mine are 2 little demons arguing about what activities are good/bad for me & admonishing me for either resting too much or doing too much LOL. I just have to focus more on what I have achieved & less on those little demons. :)
Thank you Julie. It's a huge change to go from being a person who would work multiple jobs, study & parent, to being someone who can't stand up long enough to wash the dishes or who gets exhausted from having a shower. I guess we should probably keep a diary to write down all the things we do achieve, so we can look at it when the fatigue monster is beating us.
Love nature love the out doors love the country and love your log project...my best to you in your shows here (hermoso) you have that touch God bless you and JESUS LOVES YOU
Looking for ways to make a hollow log concrete mold, and this is a perfect way to do it without needing an actual log. Can sculpt this over plastic soda bottle and paint/pour silicone over it. Lovely job with your painting too. Amazing little forest scene as well-love it!
Oh My Gosh! I have been following your videos since you started the original house for the Gnomes and I wad amazed by how amazing YOU are but I gotta say.... you have proven to be much amazinger than ever . ( yes, that is too a word😊) you know how people will ask you what you would do if you won a huge lottery? Well, I know exactly what I would do if I won.....have an exact replica of the Gnome home built in real people scale so I could live a most amazing life. I would spend the rest of my days just walking around looking at my amazing house with a gigantic grin on my face the whole time😁. And if I won again I'd have the tree house built too haha. One can dream, right? I just might have to start a project similar to this when I move into my own place again. Thank you SO much for sharing all of this with us. Can't wait to see if it ever ends. Hope not 😉
These Are Awesome! I'm thinking another Hiding place for my Snake's terraruim. I'm going to try this and use on my vending table display! for my handmade taper candles & jewlery.
Wao esa imitacion de palo te quedo de show esta precioso gracias por compartir tu talento!mañana mismo lo pongo en practica te quedo bello,bello saludos desde puerto rico

Liked this. I am going to try this but since I just bought a bundle of stuff at the store for the fairy garden, I will have to wait a while before I get back to store for paint and brushes but I definitely will make this in the next month or so. Thanks for your clear instructions. Will go now and check out the paper making for top of log.

I makes Stainless steel tumblers and have taken your technique of making gnome trees to the tumbler world .. I now have tree stumps molded around my 30 oz cups ...
Tip: if u make it cover the inside of the log with masking tape before rolling it up. Makes it easier.
This is super helpful!! I'm about to attempt my first paper clay sculpture, and this video gives me a lot of guidance on how to proceed. Thanks for sharing your creativity! 💙

Joanne Carroll I understand your demons. It’s so frustrating to want to do something and have the energy monster slap you down!
I know you get it Sharon, & most of my grizzling is kinda tongue-in-cheek, I believe if you don't find some way of laughing at it all, it can take over your thoughts.

Joanne Carroll. That sounds like s good idea. A few good days in a row would be heaven!

Can you paint on or spray varnish to make it stronger and water resistant the log?..
