    I’ve watched this video before, quite some time ago. I learned enough to make three very beautiful plates and some cups. I never read the comments before. I am so sorry that I did. You do a great service to many people. Thank you for your time, enthusiasm and graciousness.

    The thing i love most about your tutorial is---u tell us how much we can vharge for an item. I dont think i have seen any of your other videos but i cant wait to watch. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    Loved the etched plate. Thanks for the idea. Also... A product called "Pure Citrus" Orange air freshener takes off the glue from tags and other adhesives EASILY. (Takes tar off your hands, too.) Just spray, let sit a minute or so and then wipe off. Safe to use.

    Great video. I have been too afraid to try these techniques on glass plates. After watching your, I feel confident that I can do it. Thank you.

    I enjoyed this video and the others I have watched. Not very pleased with the rude feedback people have given you. Thank you for the free info you are giving us. Some of these people act like they are paying for this info. IT'S FREE PEOPLE! I enjoy watching you and loved going to your store last week, in fact going again this week.

    For what my opinion is worth...I've never done anything like this...I'm not knowledgeable about crafting at all....but I understood everything and feel confident that I can recreate this, purchase everything necessary to do so based on the video. I'm not getting how people are not comprehending your instruction but I guess everyone is different. Thanks! I subbed.♡

    I had no problems whatsoever creating a beautiful Christmas plate using your directions and I am NOT "crafty" by any means! Thank you, so very much for taking the time to teach us such valuable techniques! My plate turned out so amazing that I'm making another one now because once I witnessed how well it turned out, I wasn't wanting to gift it, and I'm not selfish like that!
    I have 1 suggestion...PLEASE do a tutorial on how you apply your eye makeup!!! I love the colors you used! You're absolutely beautiful...thanks again...I'm in awe over the plate and I can't stop staring at it!

    Going on week two with Cricut and I UNDERSTOOD everything she was talking about. I don't understand the negative comments towards this video. When it comes to filming a video, there's a lot put into it as it is. The quality of the camera, the setup, how your going to start and finish, making sure the video isn't to long or to short, and so many other things. The last thing on someone's mind is to explain the word "weeding"... Guys/Gals, It's not that hard to look up the word for yourself. I know for someone who is in Film school, Films and edits things all the time, the last thing I'm concerned about is someone not understanding a word. This video was great and the editing was great. I HATE watching long videos, but since starting my own business, I have only liked certain UA-cam videos that are long and UNDERSTANDBLE. She is one of them. Pick up a dictionary when you don't understand something. It's that simple! :)

  • @SunshineAlwayssassy

    Great video tutorial, it is one that I will watch again. I always wanted to learn an easy way to get great etching results on glass. Your presentation of the topic was fantastic, clear, concise, and organized as well as presented with confident professional poise. I really appreciate the lesson before the holidays.

  • @vilmat.gonzalez2759
    @vilmat.gonzalez2759 7 років тому

    There's something about you I like very much. Very clear voice, modest wear & very pretty, love your makeup also. I stopped & was reading the comments not seen the finished product yet cuz I honestly do not know what "edging" is. I'll look further into it. But continue, I'll keep looking for you. Practice what that gall suggested & you'll have a ton of followers. ;)

  • @roses8753
    @roses8753 6 років тому +7

    This is the first time I've watched one of your videos. I was so thoroughly confused that I stopped it after a couple of minutes. I couldn't see what you were doing or understand the instructions. I did skip through to the end and loved the finished product.

    Tonight is the first time I have watched your videos and I learned so much! I subscribed and look forward to learning more from you. Your tutorials are perfect just the way they are. I understood everything and really like the speed you do them, you don't waste time. Can't believe some of the negative remarks, especially the one about you showing off and asked why you are wearing make up. Seriously!! All I have to say about that is that some people are just jealous. I would much rather watch someone that looks like she takes pride in her appearance than some of the videos where the person looks like they just rolled out of bed. I am so excited that I found your videos. Good job! Thank you so much!

    I have used a product called "Goo Gone" to remove sticky labels from items. I have found this in small bottles at the Dollar Tree, as well as larger bottles at Lowe's Home Improvement and even WalMart. It's a great time saver for getting those stubborn labels to peel off.

    Thank you so much for your videos, I feel you do a great job. I love that you stated what number of vinyl you used. That is always helpful. Can you please add what numbers you use when you cut your vinyl, you make picking look so easy. I am getting better but still have some issues. I have to do the plates, looks so fun and easy. Love all your videos, but a little extra information is always helpful to us newbies.
