You definitely have your own following and I'm one of those people who's very glad you're back. It wasn't the plants we watched for necessarily it was you❤
@@TunedOutCraftsBut she's so right, you really were missed. You kept so many of us sane through lockdown, helped us with plant problems, shared your home and family with us, made us laugh. We love you so much. ❤
None of us get out alive and we ALL go through something. Your audience appreciates you and we stand with you. Thanks for all your past, present and future videos!
Amanda so glad to have you back. Because of you my house is like a jungle now. No more dead plants. Thanks for everything and just being you. Welcome back.❤😘😀
Amanda, I want to make sure you know how important these videos are! 👏👏 You are giving people permission and inspiration to PLAY and awaken their inner child spirit! Saying that some projects will be a “failure” is a great gentile reminder to not take everything so seriously. I am SO excited for all of the pressed flower projects! Everything you’ve showed here is AMAZING! Thank you for taking us along for the journey. You are the GOAT for sharing your joy with us! 💖💖💖
So so glad you are back! My Dad a WWll Veteran would watch you w/ me. We lost him this past Sept @ 100 yrs of age. He loved seeing you! ❤ I have a request: you showed us the mirror you made into a mosaic wall piece. Maybe perhaps on a smaller scale so we have an understanding of the process. Again, so good to see you.
I can see your dad with you and it warms my heart to think of the relationship you had with him. (sorry if that sounds strange). I can show you the process for sure! It's been like 30 years since I made those😳. Damn I have some milage on me! Happy to break out the tile cutter and shred some mirrors!!!!
Wow Amanda! I could always see that you are a very creative person but holy crap! You have serious talent! And not just in one medium but many! You could absolutely open an art gallery! I'm really impressed! I can't wait to see all the things you do on this channel! I'm so glad you are back! ❤
I’ve fallen asleep with your voice during those very confusing pandemic days… shut off indoors for days/weeks/months… finding you again brings back memories… thanks for finding the courage to come back to connect with your community..
God bless you, Amanda! You are so talented! You were excellent as Planterina and now these Art projects you are working on! Truly blessed by the Lord! I know you have been through a lot like many of us! Stay strong and looking forward to your new channel!
I am SO excited for your new channel. I'm already so inspired to get creative again and I cannot describe how badly I've needed this. Love you, Amanda! 💜👩🏻🎨
Hi Amanda, it's so lovely to see you again. Me and my mom, Shirley, found you two years ago, just a few months after my Dad suddenly passed away. Our lives where turned upside down as we are a very close small family and share everything together. Besides our faith and beliefs, there where a few things that gave us strength and kept us going, and your videos where one of them. They gave us tremendous inspiration into loving and appreciating plants like never before (I wasn't even a 'plant person' myself) styling them and caring for them, finding and collecting new and exciting varieties and learning about them, mostly through your fun and informative presentations. Loving plants helped to make a big whole in our hearts less empty. It also inspired my mom to start her own channel. This motivated me to be the one man editor, camera, lighting and sound crew of the channel and help my mom think of ideas. In short, your videos helped to heal and bring us back and we will be forever grateful. To us your like a good friend we haven't met. We're very sorry about your own family loss and what you've been through. All your hard work and time on planterina should be yours to keep and benefit from even with a rebrand and regardless of what happened with the videos, which, again is thoroughly unfair on you. Both my mom's channel and my own have been frozen since early last August when our neighbour's lawnmower backfired while we where out and caused a fire which blackened half the house, destroying huge amounts of belongings and our power supply, boiler and gas. We where hauled up in accommodation for months before we personally cleaned the safe part of the house of grey ash and bought generators and caravan batteries and used them for power and our stove for heating and manged to move back in in November (with great struggling.) A month ago we finally had our power restored and will have our boiler back in a fortnight. So we are hoping to get ourselves up and running again sometime soon and start recording again. Amazingly, your new video popped up tonight for us. We'd looked for you before, but couldn't find any way of sending you a message. We just wanted to let you know all this and send you some love, support and thanks. We look forward to your new videos, whatever you decide to make them about and hope you see this and know you've got some friends across the pond ( in England! ) we've missed you too! Love from Myles & Shirley Thomas (Shirls DeVine Styling left a comment too) ❤
Your story really hit me hard and just shows how strong, motivated and determined you both are. I wish I lived by so I could have helped you. I can imagine how much it took to get back in your home. I am so inspired by your rejection of giving up. Please let me know if I can help in any way. You can email me makeitwithamanda@gmail.com ~ Sending you love ❤️
This video's timing is so meaningful to me. I am being treated for ptsd and am finding out that art is a part of my healing but it's hard to get the confidence and motivation to get going. Thank you for being you and sharing your gifts with us. Blessings
The only thing worse than failing is never trying. I am posititve that you will find a way to express yourself through art ~ Enjoy the process and who really cares what it ends up looking like ~ Bonus if it looks good!!!! Rememebr to have fun while creating if you can! Sending you lots of emotional support!!!
Amanda, can't tell you how much I've missed you. Was so concerned about you. Sorry to hear you have been going through a hard time. Never underestimate how much joy you bring into People's lives. You unknowingly helped me through a terrible time, still ongoing... Thank You! You were the first Person I ever watched on UA-cam. I learned so much from you. You are amazingly creative and inspiring and a beautiful person. You certainly have been busy. I'm not going ANYWHERE!! I was so excited when you 'Poped' up on the TV. I've only just learned how to send a message. Hope you see it. Love from Down Under❤ Suzanne (Sydney, Australia) 🤗 Big hug to you....🌻
Hi Suzanne!!! Thank you so much for learning how to send a message! Now I have to find it🤣. I really hope that your ordeal ends soon ( not knowing what it is, sorry). I hope you find peace throughout from time to time. Please take care of yourself and be the strong person you are!!!
@@TunedOutCrafts Hi Amanda. I’m thrilled you replied to me - My first reply too! Thanks for your kind words. Given this is a public forum I don’t feel comfortable sharing my problems. I have always used humour to make my way through the tough times, hidden it mostly. I’m not able to do that at the moment. It’s so great to see you back and looking forward to watching you create all those wonderful art pieces you showed us. It’s so positive I wouldn’t want to take anything away from that. Honestly, your head must hurt with all those ideas bouncing around in there🥴🤭…..🙂 I hope you are enjoying all the wonderful things everyone is saying about you as you deserve it!! It’s a shame about the time difference (whatever that is, I don’t know where you are) as I’m not able to interact live
Hi Amanda, I accidentally sent my reply 🙄🤦🏼♀️….it’s 5.30am Wednesday 1/5(you date other way so 1st May )your time, 7.30pm my time so I’m 12hrs ahead of you. Just wanted to finish up. Notice how many troubled people you help? Much better than therapy. It is weird yet at the same time seems like you said, that we are talking to each other. I feel I know you, not in a weird way, wouldn’t want you to think that. Think I’ll quit wh ile I’m behind - not sure if you guys have that saying. Anyway, bye for now, welcome back, no need to be nervous, understandable just not necessary-you are very brave. The peace I find is when I watch you and a couple of other people on UA-cam. Don’t feel so alone. I don’t sleep well so depending when you post I might see it at the time. You take care too, good luck, not that you need it 🎉 Happy New Channel ❤🤗🌻🦋, Suzanne 🪴
Well I could always tell you had the heart of a creative, I love that you're going to share your processes with us. Thank you Amanda.Just be yourself Girl that's all we need.
I am a 3D art teacher in Florida that loved watching your Planterina channel. I found it around 2023 and was crushed when you vanished. Now your new stuff is just as helpful to my tribe of artists and botanical beauties! ❤❤❤
We are doing less complex projects than anything you are creating-high school general curriculum 3D. I emphasize recycled & nature items. I have a sailor’s mouth and favor invisibility but video together sounds intriguing.
Gosh, so many thoughts I had watching this! First and foremost, if you put on art exhibit somewhere, I’m so there! Your creative mind is freaking amazing Amanda. No joke, you are the real deal. I didn’t know when we’d hear from you again or what to expect when we did. But I’m so excited to join you on this next chapter. On a more personal note, and I hope this comes across as a compliment, but I sense your raw authentic self coming across. I’ve always loved your videos and obviously your personality is one we’ve all fallen in love with. But there is definitely something different this time around - keep letting that light of yours shine!
You are making me cry. For real. It feels so good to be able to just do whatever, (if you know what I mean) wear whatever, make whatever, and just chill with you. The best part is this! I miss this!
Just seeing you in my screen is enough to keep me here Amanda! I'm excited to try out some of these things. But also... please still help us with our plants!!!!! All my planty knowledge comes into my brain in your voice!
I’m watching your videos for the first time. You’re an absolute genius! I watch a lot of art videos for ideas, inspiration and just learning how to be a better artist. I haven’t watched anyone who inspired me like this! Your ideas are outrageous. Please continue sharing! This is just what I needed!!!
So glad that you’ve decided to come back to us. I always looked forward to seeing your videos, now I’m super excited to see what you create. Everything you’ve shown in this video is really wonderful and beautiful.
i am just so happy that youre back in time for the growing season. Plus i love these crafting videos. Another thing I hope to see from you, is all of your antiques and second hand finds. You always found amazing things, as well as the things your dad would gift you. Glad to see you doing so well, Amanda!
I will be sure to include those. I didn't have time to go to yard sales this weekend, BUT I was given a few mid-century chairs in need of repairs and I am SOOO Excited to work on them. They are so great!!
i could only hope to spend many hours with you and indulge in your creative process together...you are so creative and i am so looking forward to seeing how all these projects come together! I have hit a wall in my creativity and know that your channel will help me through it...thank you Amanda for all you do! So excited to get creative!!!🥰
Hate those walls!!!! But we can break them down by getting ideas from others out there. Nautre also offers so much inspiration ~ Thannk you Xandra and I KNOW you will bust through fast! 🤗
Seeing you is like seeing an old friend. I watched your old channel because YOU are special and fun & wacky. Whatever you do will be fabulous. Follow your ❤ and we'll follow you! Big hugs!!!
I was just searching the internet for you yesterday! So nice to see you back on YT. I look forward to this new channel. You're so funny, sarcastic, encouraging, calming, and talk about CREATIVE! What a gift; thanks for sharing it.
Hi Amanda from New Zealand. Awesome to see you back, you have been missed. Pretty in Green did give us updates so yes I subscribed to your new channel asap. You have been my youtube friend since I started my planty hobbie so you were truly missed. Thank you so much for coming back to us.🥰
Thank you for being back. Giving me hope with my path that went drastically different. Everything happens for a reason. So thank you... Really appreciate it ❤
“Fahhking forever” 😂😂 you’re hilarious! I love that patchwork, loom thing that you have as your profile banner thingy lol Wooww that bird hutch thing is sooo cool!!
@@TunedOutCrafts haha well you definitely have more discipline than I do. It would take me years to get far in a project like those cabinet lands you made. Either that, or I could finish it within a fortnight and everyone would worry that I was becoming an unsocialized gremlin, not showering or anything 😂 happy Sunday to you too!
I LOVE this. The making bits were my favourite parts of your old channel and you inspired me to make so many beautiful pieces that are now around my home. As well as teaching me everything I now know about my plants collection. You are really the best xxx
I’m so glad you have returned. Shamelessly, I checked every day. I loved the art you created on your plant videos. Can’t wait to see your newer creations.
Yay! So good to see you again!!! We missed you!!!! We love art and plants. You are so creative and talented. We look forward to seeing more of your content and ideas. ❤️
Amanda you’re making me manic with all the projects you have on the go. That would clutter my brain, I would get nothing done. Good for you if you can. Love your work!
Wow! This is a whole about face change! Who knew you have so many talents. Sounds like you are doing your own “Healing therapy” Spectacular. Very creative
Hi Joanne ~ I think you figured out what is going on ~ and thanks for articulating it. Art really does help, just like caring for plants. It all makes sense!!!
One of the many things I've loved about you is you always made me stretch - how can I display my plants differently, what do I already own that can be upcycled, recycled and create interest in my space. Love it...and you! ❤
Oh my goodness so many projects! The bird disco is amazing, love it 🥰 I’m so happy to see you again and learn some craft stuff. You taught me how to care for plants, like lots of other people around the world, so although you have less plants now, there are a lot more happy plants around the world now because of you ❤ Let’s fill the world with beautiful craft now
I wish you were my neighbor because I’d love to make all of these things with you! I’ll settle for through the screen. Welcome back! So excited to have your energy around again. ❤
You’re amazing and I’m glad you’re back . When I’m down I like to watch your channel, it brings me grounding and peace and I’m sure for many others also. Thank you.❤
I'm so glad you've started this channel. I love creativity...but never liked the feeling of having to make it "perfect". I already know with you at the helm, we have creative license to be ourselves. Thank you, thank you for your courage to dream, to build, create & in doing so, help others to dream again. 🤩
Thank you ~ I have to start working on it again. I gave away some of the animals so I will make a few more! The disco is a bit challangeing and I have to think about the last shelf.
I followed you for years before and as soon as I saw you were back I subscribed. I also have to say that this new channel which is encouraging self expression and creativity is so exciting and hopeful... so THANK YOU! You are so incredibly creative and talented!!! I have a painting I stopped working on a several months back when my health took a short turn for the worse and now, I'm only 7 minutes in to your video and inspired to pick up the brushes again. Maybe it will be more of what I started or something totally different but it will BE. Welcome back and I hope you soar to new heights in all ways positive! 🤩🤗
Hi Tracy!! I am so glad to hear that you want to pick up your brush again. And let it change direction because, most likely you are feeling something different now. Seeing evolution of time in one peice makes it more interesting ( at least i think so). Thank you for writing and I am rooting for you!
Again, Welcome back. good to see you already! love the stuff you are doing. can only watch for a moment, but i WILL be back to watch full vid. I dig this... its more Amanda, less fluff. I love you.
Amanda glad you are back 😊 I really missed your charming personality. You are a creative genius. Im sure youll be a roaring success at whatever you try . All the very best.👍
I'm very excited to jump into all the projects with you. This is right up my ally. So dang happy to have you back. 🤗 I'm so sorry about your niece. Sending big love. XO
So thrilled to have you back, Amanda! I watched all your videos on your other channel! But now you’re back I’m so excited!!!! Love this creative channel tooooo!!!! ❤
*Amanda showing all these incredible pieces that are insanely creative* "this is easy you can do it!" Me through sniffles "okay!" Just the biggest cheerleader ever! I don't actually think I can but if you say I can then let's goooo! 😅❤
DUDE!!!! HOLY SHIT these are INCREDIBLE!!!! Like all of them are so original and fun. I love how you can just sit and stare at the artwork, or the interactive ones you made are super cool!!!! i love all crafting and my cricut die cutting machine and i love plants... You're just such a cool person
Thank you so much ~ I sometimes feel like what is the point of making these things, but I kind of can't stop trying to see if I can do it. Mainly, its the process that is so rewarding. The laser is pretty cool ~ right!
@@TunedOutCrafts I do love the laser, I bet it makes crafting like that so easy! I also really love your peep hole dressers and boxes!!😍 Like how long did it take you to create that scenery in each of them?! It is PURE GENIUS. The leaf skeleton, literally looks like a high end expensive piece of wall art you buy for thousands! Like it’s just seriously all so fun and cool!!! 😎
Amanda how awesome I’m an artist love mixed media and majored in printmaking I love all of your art so looking forward to your process. Amazing love from ME, USA
Amanda you don’t need a degree, from what I’ve seen I love it and I always say art is from the heart❤ Don’t doubt yourself you got this! Ps save the porch deck boards I’m sure you’ll be able to create something with them❤ I love everything you showed today can’t wait to see more!!!❤❤❤
I'm excited for the Botanical prints! You can even use fabric for it. I love that you will be the sole captain of this ship ❤ it's soooooo good to have you back!
These are some wonderful ideas! Thanks so much! I know the new channel is focused on creating things, but please consider starting an online store. I don’t feel that I could do the textile pieces, but I love it and would definitely buy.
Hi Amanda, my son Myles at Airhersalderaz has just about summed up our message to you. I just wanted to say stay strong, enjoy your channel and creativity. It might feel like an effort right now, but I think it is what you need. That is how it was for me. Life is all about creativity. So dive in and have fun. From Shirley xx
Hi there Shirly! Yes, I read his comment and I can't get it out of my head. You two are so lucky to have eachother and the combined determination you share is powerful! Please let me know if I can help you in any way. With much love, Amanda
Wow,, what smart this lady is....I learned from her not to feel afraid of plants..jajaja.. I have a beautiful garden.thanks what I learned from her...people now stop in front of my house to take pictures in front my garden..🥰🥰.Besides that...she's really great talent in arts..I really admire her a lot..for sure I'm her follower here too..congrats and good luck with her new project..❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your beautiful creative process with us!! Everything is so wonderful and so very cool!!! Can't wait to see what you brew ❤. Welcome back! We appreciate you and everything you bring to the table.
I've wondered where you'd gone and was hoping you were well. Turns out more than well, producing seemingly a lifetime of art! Wow, plants are not your only domain of creativity and talent! Such cool art! Skillful, beautiful and great color compositions in all kinds of creative mediums! Wowzies.
Hi, so glad you’re back. I really enjoy the variety of content that you’ve created . I’m really going to enjoy seeing you create these projects . Your audience are there for you & appreciate you 😊just enjoy your time 👍🏻I love the mix of Victorian /vintage/modern ❤
Oh my GOD I've missed you (not in a creepy way)!!! Yes, I will admit, I will miss all the plant info, BUT...I am looking forward into possibly tapping more into my creative juices with you. My problem is that I often have a hard time executing what I see in my head. lol I am looking forward to seeing how you reuse things (maybe a little antiquing? ::pretty please:::) Welcome back!
Yes ~ Thrifting, dumpster diving, flea markets, yard sales ~ a treasure trove of ideas!!! I have the same issue with the execution part. Most of the time I do not stick with the inital idea and go off to some strange version of what it was intened to be ~ but it helps to sketch it out and stick with the plan. ( I should listen to my own advice!)🤣. Missed you too Alison!
You definitely have your own following and I'm one of those people who's very glad you're back. It wasn't the plants we watched for necessarily it was you❤
I miss you like it’s embarrassing HOW MUCH ❤😂❤❤❤❤❤
You are hilarious!!! 🤗
@@TunedOutCraftsBut she's so right, you really were missed. You kept so many of us sane through lockdown, helped us with plant problems, shared your home and family with us, made us laugh. We love you so much. ❤
Same!!
We all did and were so happy she’s back!!! 😭💞
@@Desert-Dweller Absolutely right!
This feels a lot more personal now. I like it.
Thanks again Aiden!
I’m soooo glad you’re back!
I mean, I really enjoyed her with the plants.
None of us get out alive and we ALL go through something. Your audience appreciates you and we stand with you. Thanks for all your past, present and future videos!
Amanda so glad to have you back. Because of you my house is like a jungle now. No more dead plants. Thanks for everything and just being you. Welcome back.❤😘😀
THE COMEBACK IS GREATER THAN THE SET BACK!!!
Chris - I didn't know you are a poet! or is that from a rap? 🤣
Holllllllllyyyy crap! I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone with so many different creations and different artistic talent. This is absolutely amazing!
Why thank you Heather. I am a bit all over the place.
Amanda, I want to make sure you know how important these videos are! 👏👏 You are giving people permission and inspiration to PLAY and awaken their inner child spirit! Saying that some projects will be a “failure” is a great gentile reminder to not take everything so seriously. I am SO excited for all of the pressed flower projects! Everything you’ve showed here is AMAZING! Thank you for taking us along for the journey. You are the GOAT for sharing your joy with us! 💖💖💖
So so glad you are back! My Dad a WWll Veteran would watch you w/ me. We lost him this past Sept @ 100 yrs of age. He loved seeing you! ❤ I have a request: you showed us the mirror you made into a mosaic wall piece. Maybe perhaps on a smaller scale so we have an understanding of the process. Again, so good to see you.
I can see your dad with you and it warms my heart to think of the relationship you had with him. (sorry if that sounds strange). I can show you the process for sure!

Ugh - I suck at getting compliments ~ Just super stoked to be able to share with you and learn from others! Thank you for this though!
This is going to be a wonderful trip!
I’ve fallen asleep with your voice during those very confusing pandemic days… shut off indoors for days/weeks/months… finding you again brings back memories… thanks for finding the courage to come back to connect with your community..
God bless you, Amanda! You are so talented! You were excellent as Planterina and now these Art projects you are working on! Truly blessed by the Lord! I know you have been through a lot like many of us! Stay strong and looking forward to your new channel!
I am SO excited for your new channel. I'm already so inspired to get creative again and I cannot describe how badly I've needed this. Love you, Amanda! 💜👩🏻🎨
Love you toooo! I sooo wish we could do an in-person workshop. How FUN would that be!!!!!!!!
@@TunedOutCrafts That would be so awesome!!
I remember playing your videos while casually doing house chores. You were part of my life. We all need a bit of Amanda
Hi Amanda, it's so lovely to see you again. Me and my mom, Shirley, found you two years ago, just a few months after my Dad suddenly passed away. Our lives where turned upside down as we are a very close small family and share everything together.
Besides our faith and beliefs, there where a few things that gave us strength and kept us going, and your videos where one of them. They gave us tremendous inspiration into loving and appreciating plants like never before (I wasn't even a 'plant person' myself) styling them and caring for them, finding and collecting new and exciting varieties and learning about them, mostly through your fun and informative presentations. Loving plants helped to make a big whole in our hearts less empty.
It also inspired my mom to start her own channel. This motivated me to be the one man editor, camera, lighting and sound crew of the channel and help my mom think of ideas.
In short, your videos helped to heal and bring us back and we will be forever grateful.
To us your like a good friend we haven't met. We're very sorry about your own family loss and what you've been through. All your hard work and time on planterina should be yours to keep and benefit from even with a rebrand and regardless of what happened with the videos, which, again is thoroughly unfair on you.
Both my mom's channel and my own have been frozen since early last August when our neighbour's lawnmower backfired while we where out and caused a fire which blackened half the house, destroying huge amounts of belongings and our power supply, boiler and gas. We where hauled up in accommodation for months before we personally cleaned the safe part of the house of grey ash and bought generators and caravan batteries and used them for power and our stove for heating and manged to move back in in November (with great struggling.)
A month ago we finally had our power restored and will have our boiler back in a fortnight.
So we are hoping to get ourselves up and running again sometime soon and start recording again.
Amazingly, your new video popped up tonight for us. We'd looked for you before, but couldn't find any way of sending you a message.

I didn’t know when we’d hear from you again or what to expect when we did. But I’m so excited to join you on this next chapter. On a more personal note, and I hope this comes across as a compliment, but I sense your raw authentic self coming across. I’ve always loved your videos and obviously your personality is one we’ve all fallen in love with. But there is definitely something different this time around - keep letting that light of yours shine!
You are making me cry. For real. It feels so good to be able to just do whatever, (if you know what I mean) wear whatever, make whatever, and just chill with you. The best part is this! I miss this!
Just seeing you in my screen is enough to keep me here Amanda! I'm excited to try out some of these things. But also... please still help us with our plants!!!!! All my planty knowledge comes into my brain in your voice!
I will try!! I think you know more than I do at this point though!!🤣
I’m watching your videos for the first time. You’re an absolute genius! I watch a lot of art videos for ideas, inspiration and just learning how to be a better artist. I haven’t watched anyone who inspired me like this! Your ideas are outrageous. Please continue sharing! This is just what I needed!!!
So glad that you’ve decided to come back to us. I always looked forward to seeing your videos, now I’m super excited to see what you create. Everything you’ve shown in this video is really wonderful and beautiful.
Thank you so much Dwight! This means so much to me and I am so thankful that you are letting me into your world!
I love all the projects, including house fixing!😊 Please feel free to share. So glad you are back😊
Sending you hugs and blessings. I am so sorry for your loss.
Welcome back🙌🏻
Thank you Carolyn...I am sending you lots of love and a giant hug!
i am just so happy that youre back in time for the growing season. Plus i love these crafting videos. Another thing I hope to see from you, is all of your antiques and second hand finds. You always found amazing things, as well as the things your dad would gift you. Glad to see you doing so well, Amanda!
I will be sure to include those. I didn't have time to go to yard sales this weekend, BUT I was given a few mid-century chairs in need of repairs and I am SOOO Excited to work on them. They are so great!!
i could only hope to spend many hours with you and indulge in your creative process together...you are so creative and i am so looking forward to seeing how all these projects come together! I have hit a wall in my creativity and know that your channel will help me through it...thank you Amanda for all you do! So excited to get creative!!!🥰
Hate those walls!!!! But we can break them down by getting ideas from others out there. Nautre also offers so much inspiration ~ Thannk you Xandra and I KNOW you will bust through fast! 🤗
Seeing you is like seeing an old friend. I watched your old channel because YOU are special and fun & wacky. Whatever you do will be fabulous. Follow your ❤ and we'll follow you! Big hugs!!!
I'm LOVING it ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"I LOVE YOUR BRAIN !" ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Amanda. Xox ❤
Its actually made of putty🤣♥️
This is way too cool, I can’t wait!!!
I was just searching the internet for you yesterday! So nice to see you back on YT. I look forward to this new channel. You're so funny, sarcastic, encouraging, calming, and talk about CREATIVE! What a gift; thanks for sharing it.
Laura, Many thanks for caring and allowing me to be in your thoughts. Seriously! I am so honored.
Hi Amanda from New Zealand.
Awesome to see you back, you have been missed. Pretty in Green did give us updates so yes I subscribed to your new channel asap. You have been my youtube friend since I started my planty hobbie so you were truly missed. Thank you so much for coming back to us.🥰
I so appreciate you Joanne and I am also very appreciative for @prettyingreen for helping me find my way back. Thank you!!!
Thank you for being back. Giving me hope with my path that went drastically different. Everything happens for a reason. So thank you... Really appreciate it ❤
Hi Chris. I hope you can clear a new path for yourself that is paved by you. Sending you support and love!
“Fahhking forever” 😂😂 you’re hilarious! I love that patchwork, loom thing that you have as your profile banner thingy lol
Wooww that bird hutch thing is sooo cool!!
Thanks Sandra ~ Seems like everything I am making now takes sooo long to finish ~ Like I am punishing myself for something.. Have a great Sunday!
@@TunedOutCrafts haha well you definitely have more discipline than I do. It would take me years to get far in a project like those cabinet lands you made. Either that, or I could finish it within a fortnight and everyone would worry that I was becoming an unsocialized gremlin, not showering or anything 😂 happy Sunday to you too!
I LOVE this. The making bits were my favourite parts of your old channel and you inspired me to make so many beautiful pieces that are now around my home. As well as teaching me everything I now know about my plants collection. You are really the best xxx
I’m so glad you have returned. Shamelessly, I checked every day. I loved the art you created on your plant videos. Can’t wait to see your newer creations.
Thank you for caring Donna and for being so nice! ♥️
Yay! So good to see you again!!! We missed you!!!! We love art and plants. You are so creative and talented. We look forward to seeing more of your content and ideas. ❤️
Thank you for coming back we wish you the best 😊
Thank you too for coming back ~ I soooo apprecaite it!
Amanda you’re making me manic with all the projects you have on the go. That would clutter my brain, I would get nothing done. Good for you if you can. Love your work!
Wow! This is a whole about face change! Who knew you have so many talents. Sounds like you are doing your own “Healing therapy” Spectacular. Very creative
Hi Joanne ~ I think you figured out what is going on ~ and thanks for articulating it. Art really does help, just like caring for plants. It all makes sense!!!
Such talent your creativity is amazing such talent you have missed you so happy you back ❤
One of the many things I've loved about you is you always made me stretch - how can I display my plants differently, what do I already own that can be upcycled, recycled and create interest in my space. Love it...and you! ❤
Love you Molly! It's pretty wonderful to take somthing that seems like garbage to others and make something useful or artful from it. ~ Love Amanda
@MakeitWithAmanda Love you back Amanda! Can't wait to make things with you and learn new techniques! XO
Oh my goodness so many projects! The bird disco is amazing, love it 🥰 I’m so happy to see you again and learn some craft stuff.
You taught me how to care for plants, like lots of other people around the world, so although you have less plants now, there are a lot more happy plants around the world now because of you ❤ Let’s fill the world with beautiful craft now
It's great to see you again Amanda x
Thank you! It feels so good to be with you all.
These kinds of projects also feel so cathartic for me and you've got me feeling very inspired again!! Thank you!
I wish you were my neighbor because I’d love to make all of these things with you! I’ll settle for through the screen. Welcome back! So excited to have your energy around again. ❤
I was like~ Did I make a screen🤣 ~ But now I get it ~ I would be thrilled to have the company!
So glad to have you back, you were missed bless your heart.!!!!❤️
You’re amazing and I’m glad you’re back . When I’m down I like to watch your channel, it brings me grounding and peace and I’m sure for many others also. Thank you.❤
Welcome back ❤ your channel means so much to so many of us viewers. So happy to have you back. 😊
Thank you for welcoming me back! Huge hugs to you!!
I am so excited about everything! 😍🥰💕 Thank you, Amanda!!!
So VERY happy you are back!!! You are in my Prayers sweet lady and Thank You for coming back!!!
Thank you so much! Sending love and hugs to you!
😊😊 Yay ! You are an inspiration. Love your passion for odd hobbies. ❤ Bird disco. 🐦
I'm so glad you've started this channel. I love creativity...but never liked the feeling of having to make it "perfect". I already know with you at the helm, we have creative license to be ourselves. Thank you, thank you for your courage to dream, to build, create & in doing so, help others to dream again. 🤩
I adore the cupboard with the spy holes!!! So freaking neat!!!
Thank you ~ I have to start working on it again. I gave away some of the animals so I will make a few more! The disco is a bit challangeing and I have to think about the last shelf.
So glad you’re back missed you can’t wait for new projects
I followed you for years before and as soon as I saw you were back I subscribed. I also have to say that this new channel which is encouraging self expression and creativity is so exciting and hopeful... so THANK YOU! You are so incredibly creative and talented!!! I have a painting I stopped working on a several months back when my health took a short turn for the worse and now, I'm only 7 minutes in to your video and inspired to pick up the brushes again. Maybe it will be more of what I started or something totally different but it will BE. Welcome back and I hope you soar to new heights in all ways positive! 🤩🤗
Hi Tracy!! I am so glad to hear that you want to pick up your brush again. And let it change direction because, most likely you are feeling something different now. Seeing evolution of time in one peice makes it more interesting ( at least i think so). Thank you for writing and I am rooting for you!
Again, Welcome back. good to see you already! love the stuff you are doing. can only watch for a moment, but i WILL be back to watch full vid. I dig this... its more Amanda, less fluff. I love you.
Love you too and Thank you for this! huge huge hug!!!
The queen is back!!!! 🙌🏼
😬🤣
Amanda glad you are back 😊 I really missed your charming personality. You are a creative genius. Im sure youll be a roaring success at whatever you try . All the very best.👍
The banana trio is awesome. Glad you are back!
Thank you ~ Sexy Fruit🤣
Ooh,. Glad you’re back. Please don’t leave us. We need you!
Omg I love the bird disco! 🤣 it’s so cute! The peep holes are so unique and a fun surprise. Love them.
Thank you! I will explain the process on how the idea started and how to make them! There are many ways to do it! Huge hugs!!
Looks like you needed that time off to create your masterpieces. We would never have seen the real artist in Amanda. Thanks for coming back to us. ❤
You are YOU and that is enough. So glad u're back. Much appreciation for you ❤
I appreciate you more than you know.
I'm very excited to jump into all the projects with you. This is right up my ally. So dang happy to have you back. 🤗 I'm so sorry about your niece. Sending big love. XO
Love right back at you Diane!!! Come and make something with me!
So thrilled to have you back, Amanda! I watched all your videos on your other channel! But now you’re back I’m so excited!!!! Love this creative channel tooooo!!!! ❤
Thanks a million Sherile ~ I am so thrilled to be able to try my best!
After over six years of watching your channel I finally got to hear you drop the F Bomb. This makes me very happy 😂
Love that you are sharing all your creativity with us❤
I am so glad you are even slighlty interested. Seriously!
*Amanda showing all these incredible pieces that are insanely creative* "this is easy you can do it!"
Me through sniffles "okay!"
Just the biggest cheerleader ever! I don't actually think I can but if you say I can then let's goooo! 😅❤
Amanda!!!!! So glad to have you back ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Adrienne ~ I am so happy to be back and be welcomed so warmly. I feel so lucky.
@@TunedOutCrafts we love you and we are lucky!!!
DUDE!!!! HOLY SHIT these are INCREDIBLE!!!! Like all of them are so original and fun. I love how you can just sit and stare at the artwork, or the interactive ones you made are super cool!!!! i love all crafting and my cricut die cutting machine and i love plants... You're just such a cool person
Thank you so much ~ I sometimes feel like what is the point of making these things, but I kind of can't stop trying to see if I can do it. Mainly, its the process that is so rewarding. The laser is pretty cool ~ right!
@@TunedOutCrafts I do love the laser, I bet it makes crafting like that so easy! I also really love your peep hole dressers and boxes!!😍 Like how long did it take you to create that scenery in each of them?! It is PURE GENIUS. The leaf skeleton, literally looks like a high end expensive piece of wall art you buy for thousands! Like it’s just seriously all so fun and cool!!! 😎
Amanda! I missed you so much!!
So happy to have you back!!
Amanda how awesome I’m an artist love mixed media and majored in printmaking I love all of your art so looking forward to your process. Amazing love from ME, USA
Now I am nervous!!! I am not educated in the arts and you will soon see that! But it is still fun to figure it out along the way. Love you you!!
Amanda you don’t need a degree, from what I’ve seen I love it and I always say art is from the heart❤ Don’t doubt yourself you got this! Ps save the porch deck boards I’m sure you’ll be able to create something with them❤ I love everything you showed today can’t wait to see more!!!❤❤❤
I love all your Arts and Crafts. Dried flowers are right up my alley. Never knew how to re-do furniture. Can't wait for the journey to begin ❤
Amanda, welcome back, my friend! 😘😘😘🥰
Thanks again!!!
I'm excited for the Botanical prints! You can even use fabric for it. I love that you will be the sole captain of this ship ❤ it's soooooo good to have you back!
I’m at a loss of words. Where have you been hiding all this talent?
Had too many plants to take care of🤣
Amanda I am so happy to see you again! I missed your videos and your awesome energy! I’m so excited for what’s to come!
Glad to have you back! And it's awesome to see all of your art!
Thank you Kevan~ I am really thrilled to be back here!!!
These are some wonderful ideas! Thanks so much!
I know the new channel is focused on creating things, but please consider starting an online store. I don’t feel that I could do the textile pieces, but I love it and would definitely buy.
Hi Amanda, my son Myles at Airhersalderaz has just about summed up our message to you. I just wanted to say stay strong, enjoy your channel and creativity. It might feel like an effort right now, but I think it is what you need. That is how it was for me.
Life is all about creativity. So dive in and have fun. From Shirley xx
Hi there Shirly! Yes, I read his comment and I can't get it out of my head. You two are so lucky to have eachother and the combined determination you share is powerful! Please let me know if I can help you in any way. With much love, Amanda

How lucky are we that we’re invited back into her creative mind? Love it ❤
Awe, Thank you for wanting to watch and for coming back!
I've wondered where you'd gone and was hoping you were well. Turns out more than well, producing seemingly a lifetime of art! Wow, plants are not your only domain of creativity and talent! Such cool art! Skillful, beautiful and great color compositions in all kinds of creative mediums! Wowzies.

That embroidery piece! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you ~ I may be finsihed in 3 years🤣
Hope to see the vibrant and cheerful Amanda in coming episodes. Good to have you back ❤❤❤
Hi, so glad you’re back. I really enjoy the variety of content that you’ve created . I’m really going to enjoy seeing you create these projects . Your audience are there for you & appreciate you 😊just enjoy your time 👍🏻I love the mix of Victorian /vintage/modern ❤
It's so great to see you back on here!!! I can't wait to see what you have planned!
Oh my GOD I've missed you (not in a creepy way)!!! Yes, I will admit, I will miss all the plant info, BUT...I am looking forward into possibly tapping more into my creative juices with you. My problem is that I often have a hard time executing what I see in my head. lol I am looking forward to seeing how you reuse things (maybe a little antiquing? ::pretty please:::)
Welcome back!
Yes ~ Thrifting, dumpster diving, flea markets, yard sales ~ a treasure trove of ideas!!! I have the same issue with the execution part. Most of the time I do not stick with the inital idea and go off to some strange version of what it was intened to be ~ but it helps to sketch it out and stick with the plan. ( I should listen to my own advice!)🤣. Missed you too Alison!
