    Hi Natalie. The cabinet turned out great and looks amazing. Did you know that you can put a candle in the freezer and it will pop right out. It works like a charm. I thought your candle looked cute in the crystal glass.

    I am now 3 hours away from an Ikea since moving!!! I used to be an hour from that same Ikea. I loved that store!!! It's been a minute since I've been to Ikea. I could be a spokesperson for them no problem!! 💖 Love your hacks!! So glad your health is much better! I so understand since nearly dying from Covid in '21 and having thyroid issues for years. Keep healing!! Thank you for the encouragement too!

    My IKEA is a 2 hour ferry ride across the ocean and the car is almost a $100 each way and then another hour of driving when the ferry docks. It’s an extremely expensive trip but me and my friends do it once a year and we go crazy. We are going this weekend and have booked a hotel room, another $200. It’s going to be fabulous, expensive but fabulous and hey; it’s a girls road trip. I loved your video, now I have to go find the other video with the participation from your followers.

Husband of 17 years went to sit at the foot of Jesus and hear the angels a few weeks ago! Which is amazing bc at 73 he got baptized 3 weeks earlier! It only took 17 years but I got ‘er done!

    My Ikea in Illinois is about 45 minutes for me...just bought a 12 box book shelf with 2 drawers and 2 dividers for my craft room. That store amazes me! Since I usually use a walker, my son pushed me in my wheel chair....thank goodness!!!!! The store design is genius....takes you throughout the areas and sometimes you might find something else you "absolutely cannot live without".... great job on dresser ❤😊

    NATALEE!!!! What a brilliant idea!!! I’m so impressed with your vision! You’re so talented!! I love the unit as you built it! I’ve always loved Ballard Designs but they are often outside of my budget! But you’ve shown me I can still get the look without the price tag!!!! I’m so excited to try this on my own!! Also- congrats on the candle make over!!! I’ve done this too, but I didn’t have as cute a vessel to put it in!!! I love your videos, Natalee!! Thanks for the inspiration!!! So glad to hear you’re feeling better and doing better, too! You do look healthy and so beautiful!!! God bless!

    I love the shelf and what you did with the candle. One way I've found to get wax to release is to freeze it. Not sure if it would have worked in this instance. I wish I had your confidence and knowledge when it comes to using tools.

I am curious as to the exact measurement you used for the very first wood top piece of the three drawer nightstand? I think you did the perfect size and very much in proportion. Thank you in advance.

I jumped on here to make sure you were still putting out videos because I hadn't received the weekly email in some time. Glad to see you! I just signed up with Seed. Thank you so much for sharing that. I've been taking Peptiva and found it to be pretty good, but I'm very intrigued by Seed. I hope it works as well for me. I'm off to catch up on everything I've missed. Blessings! ❤
