      I love your non-fussy, straight forward direction. That you explain why you are doing something...when you have experimented and found what has worked for you and what didn’t. And your reminding us “not to beat yourself up”, “do what makes you happy”, and words like “wonky”! That you love the “organic” look and are not trying to achieve perfection, but you care that your work you will be selling is going to hold up and perform! I mostly love your individuality, starting with your lovely pink hair! I love how you think outside the box. I love that you give so much thought into the production of your videos....so many things on the internet are just some person turning on a camera and talking ...with no planning, no editing, no thought...and can make a 90 minute video on something that if it were well planned and well edited would take 10 minutes. I don’t know how to make videos or upload them, but I can tell yours are well planned and well edited before you post them. I expect that can be a lot of work.

      I really like that last purple Tassel,do you have a tutorial for a covered wooden bead tassel like that?...I have been looking so far no luck.... Thankyou for sharing all you do!...I Love your dog! I have a 60 pound standard poodle rescue (male) and a much older (blind) 1 1/2 pound silky yorky terrier rescue ( female)
      ...She is fiesty, and rules her younger brother with an "iron paw"! 😳 not mean,or snappy... just pushy,she makes him get out of her way!
      I have never heard her bark,she just bops him with her nose,until he moves where she wants... and then sleeps all over him!
      ...He is very good at watching over her and he does not even mind that when he goes to his "snack" bowl,that she is usually sound asleep on the dry kibble!
      ...I take her out of the bowl, course,if I see her there!... but, he will just stand there or lie down,his nose next to the bowl,and wait for her to wake up and leave !
      ...Once he was fussing and came and got me, I followed him, and down the hall,she had fallen into my old garden shoe and there was she was head down,bottoms up just wiggling her little butt like crazy, trying to get out!
      ( I put my shoes away,like I should have to begin with!😂...She is very nosey and loves to stick her nose into every corner and crevice. I do keep her confined to certain
      Bigger areas,where she will not get hurt,as she loves to walk and check everything out.
      ..Luckyly,her big brother keeps a close eye on her every move!...I am home all day,and they are great company!....I think we can see who rescued who!🤓💜👍

You're always right on time for the weekend when I dive into clay mode and hardly come up for air. I have lots & lots of tiny leftover cane pieces this would be a fantastic use for. Thank you so much for yet another inspirational video to brighten our lives.

Your instruction is always so straight forward and simple, always showing the necessary detail but never wasting time by speeding up the repetitive parts. Your editing is simply fantastic. I never find myself “fast forwarding” through your videos to get to “the good stuff”....with you, it’s all “good stuff”! Thank you so much for everything you do to make these videos so enjoyable. Love your style Susan!

  • @zoeemiko8149
    @zoeemiko8149 4 роки тому

    I just made several of these using bits of canes I had laying around. I made tassels using the pod beads I made ( wood bead core). I'm beyond excited about how these are turning out. I'm using the bigger ones on my drapery tie back hooks to add that special touch. The smaller ones I made to use as pulls for lamps and ceiling fans. I see lots more of these in my future. These are so quick, easy and such fun to make! Thank you Susan.
