Bonjour from Quebec. As I write this, fog is rolling in and enveloping my little corner of the world in the countryside. Fairies must be whispering. I've just discovered your channel and am spoiling myself on this last day of the year 2022 by watching all of them. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and delightfulness. We all so need it.
Bonjour Linda! Wow, that sounds so ethereal and moody. I'd love to see it! I'm so thrilled that you are having a 'Rambling Rose' marathon to ring in the new year. Which is your favourite episode so far? xx
An absolute joy of a video again Nancy! Absolutely adore all of the gift ideas, the thought and love that goes into anything handmade truly makes it that much more special 🙂
It really does! But… I’m afraid I’ll need to make more truffles 🙊 I kinda sneakily ate them all!! 😂 Thanks for watching Georgina, I’m so happy you enjoyed the episode. Can you remember, what is the best handmade gift you ever received?!
That’s how I felt for a long time about candles… but I’m working on mastering ALL the crafts over my lifetime - that will keep me busy! Like anything, once you’ve had the homemade version of a body product, you never want to go back!
Melt & Pour glycerin soap is quite easy to work with. And fun. It only requires molds (any shape or size), dyes or micas, a container to pour from, a spoon to stir it, and a microwave. It's a lot of fun and not complicated. But melt & pour soap does need to be kept away from moisture and high humidity until time to use it.
Omg, your videos and narratives are the most enchanting and peaceful ones i've ever watched. Your beautiful voice is the cherry on the top. And your beautiful dresses... where do you get them or what are their brands? Do you make them yourself? If yes, bravo. Keep the videos coming. Love them
Oh, what a gorgeous, sweet comment, thank you! Many of the dresses are thrifted, but some are from an Australian label called 'Princess Highway' or 'Falkreath the Label'. I am keeping all my fingers and toes crossed for a lovely, ethical, sustainable label to sponsor the channel one day... because, alas, I cannot sew with this kind of skill! 🌹xx
So very beautiful and inspiring. I am in QLD and totally melting at the moment. I have enjoyed so many of your videos today while painting my books of shadows page. 🥰 Thank you for sharing this magical part of yourself. Your dad's song in your other video bought tears to my eyes, it was just the sweetest.
Loved It! Everything there in your Garden is Beautiful! Loved Your Gorgeous gifts, Especially your Soaps! The weather there in looks so Wonderful, it's getting colder here where I live. Your Flowers look so Happy! Happy Holidays To You! 💚❤️☀️🌲☀️❤️💚
Awww yes, I’m so happy with how the rose garden turned out! They’ve been loving having some sunshine after soooo much rain. Happy Holidays, Cathy! Thanks for watching xx
Thank you dear, Petra! I’m thinking about painting my studio space to make it feel even more cosy and creative (you can see just how tiny it is in this film!). I still don’t have air conditioning though… so this summer all my gouache has been drying out!
Ohhh thank you so much for watching and subscribing, Christina! I'm so thrilled you enjoyed this episode. I'm uploading a brand new one right now, so I hope you'll enjoy that too xx
I find your videos so enjoyable! I love the kitty painting gift you have done as a lover of cats I would be frill to receive a present like that, your friend is a lucky lady!!🌸💗🪷
Oh Claudia! Thank you so much for your kind comments. I’m actually doing two more pet portraits this week - a scruffy little terrier named Eric and a beautiful white pointer named Lucy. Can’t wait to get started!
So beautiful, I’d love to walk down the river again. Great video, just loved it. I’m making a few resin gifts this year, I agree a personal gift made just for you is just the best. LOVED your cat, your friend will love that one. Love painting, wish I was as good as you but I guess the main part is the enjoyment and I so enjoy it. Take care and again loved the video, see you again soon. 💕
Thank you so much for your kind comments and for following my videos and appreciating all the hard work. What sorts of things do you make with resin? Beads and jewellery? And don't be afraid to just have fun with your art, not comparing it. I have been painting animals and flowers almost every day for about 6 years... you should have seen my first attempt at a cat - it was truly atrocious!
@@theramblingrose_. No not jewellery as I don’t wear much but I do pouring art and a lot of resin flowers, I attach the flowers to the poured art. I won’t compare my work with others if I did I’d never paint I’m just realistic and realise I’m no van Gough but hell I enjoy it. I do resin coasters, trays, resin the bottom of wine glasses all that sort of stuff, just recently made my son a chess set. It’s fun and relaxing.
@@paulinehiggins8239 Do you think you could make a paint palette out of resin? I'm looking for an alternative to the plastic ones I currently use. I was thinking pottery but I can't find anyone to make it?
@@theramblingrose_. Nancy I’m happy to give it a go but I’d have to make a mould first, I could use one of my pallets to make the mould. Give me a bit of time to look at it, but I make no promises as my stuff isn’t great, but hell I’ll look into it for you.
Everything here is just so delightful, I am loving it all. So glad I found this the other day. I'm binge watching as I'm laid up with a twisted knee. More, Nancy, more videos! lol
Oh wow, Gale!! I wish I could make another 30 videos for you overnight so your healing time flies by! Let's ask the faeries to send some elves in the night to edit all my footage hehe xx
@@theramblingrose_ yes, I need some faerie magic...lol. really looking forward to the next video. I am in awe of the artwork you create, it's just beautiful ❤️
Luv these homemade gift ideas. I have made a few in the past. You’ve inspired me to start doing them again Thank you 🙏 As I am Pagan I choose not to celebrate any Christian events but I do celebrate The Wheel of the Year so any of these would make majakil gifts for any Sabbat 💚
Absolutely! I work my own pagan vibes into the calendar, as you can see, I came up with a 'Litha' tree and 'Lithamas' gifts. It's bizarre in Australia where we have our stores filled with chicks, bunnies and tulips in the middle of Autumn!
Oh hello Melbourne friend! I lived there for over a decade, teaching at a design school in the city. It's a pretty great city - especially the restaurants! yum!
Thank you so much Amber! Magical is the energy I'm trying to create, that is for sure. Making life as enchanted as possible is really what gets me going in the morning aha xx
Wow, thank you! I'm so so happy to know my words and stories are reaching out to kindred souls. Sending love from my corner of the world to yours, Brittany 😊
Hi Holly! Thank you so much, you're too kind. 'Wild Faerie Magick' will take me some time... it is 200 pages, all hand-painted! But I do have some other products coming up, and yes, they all ship worldwide 🌹xx
Oh wow Madelon! I'm so glad you like my content and thank you to the moon and back for helping me grow it! I do so love making films. Where in Brazil are you from? Are you by the ocean? xx
@@theramblingrose_ hi, my dear!! I'm from the southernmost state in Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul. I live about 2 hours from the ocean, from the mountains and from the capital city, in a beautiful small town. xoxo
That portrait of Forest is remarkable,such a handsome feline,I’m sure that you captured his eyes succinctly! I am not an artist by profession (because the word art and profession are like oil and water,but that is merely my taste on such things),but I started off,juvenile,as a cartoonist,then grew to the third dimension with carving Tagua nuts,making a few Didjeridu,and carving masks. Why is mugwort popping into my head? I think that was a previous video,hmm. Anyway,I take my mugwort,dry it,and infuse it with any number of oils,form it into a cone,inscense-wise,and burn it on the lap of Chuchipwe,an ancient statue,I have named him that,no need to Google it,as the name only exists in my home. And mugwort drifts,along with its brother oil,often citrus,through the air. I need to buy your book,and I shall! 🥰
Those Truffles look amazing! Sadly,Chocolate is poison for me,as it is for most familiars. I am nobody’s familiar,one with no home. I merely bounce around,to inspire,and also to learn from people like yourself. I am the vagabond familiar,the moon guides me,as do the tides,who reach up to the sky,to honor her gazing eye. Noah,yours,seems like a good chap,so nice!
Yay! He's a cutie. I was a little nervous that I wouldn't get him 'just right' but my friend has already had a pre-Christmas sneak peek and she loves it! Thanks for watching, Erica xx
Oh woops! I just realised I hadn't linked the music in the description. I will fix it up now, but it is 'Catch the Wave' and 'Wicked One' by Velvet Moon. I absolutely love these songs and feel like 'Wicked One' is my theme song for 2023 - the lyrics are wonderful xx
Ooh, I've been meaning to tell you that 'The Page & Cup' in Hobart are stocking my oracle cards, and if you get a chance to pop in and speak to Lynn (the owner), I think you'll find some magic there. Tell her Nancy sent you in xx

that dress is STUNNNNNING!!!
Awww thank you! You know, this was a thrift store find, there's no label!! I can't believe how perfect it fits 🌷🌼🌺
❤️❤️❤️ What a beautiful, beautiful white dress on you!!! Love it!!!
Thank you, I love this one so much. Almost warm enough now to put on my summer frocks again 🌹xx
Love your gift giving ideas 💡 🌝👍🎉🙏

I *love* the sugar scrub bars! I’d always been put off by the idea of making soaps because of the complexity, these would be perfect!
That’s how I felt for a long time about candles… but I’m working on mastering ALL the crafts over my lifetime - that will keep me busy! Like anything, once you’ve had the homemade version of a body product, you never want to go back!

@@CricketsBay oooh, I might try this myself in a future episode. Thanks for the tip!
So many creative ideas and gifts from the heart and hands are always more special❤
This looks like such fun to make. The kitty painting turned out so cute....Thank you for sharing...All the best...Melaine Fay

Such a beautiful visual display of ideas to share with loved ones. Your videos are magical Nancy!
