Have a wonderful week and happy crafting 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
Thank you, You too 😉
Great to see you Tina, the fleece pullover looks very cozy🤗
Thanks, it feel lovely and cozy . Have a great weekend
No way! A toasted cheese butty in an air fryer 😮 Who knew? Honestly the things you teach me. 🥪🥪👏🏻❤ 🤣
You can learn everything on UA-cam 😘
I believe that sweet peas need to have the top pinched out so that they become more bushy but I don't know when or how much. Great bargain for the cosy top - love the colour too!
Thanks for watching, yes I watched a video on UA-cam to see which bits to pinch 😁
Love the vlogs 😊
Glad you like them 😃
Love your blue mitts 🩵
Thank you so much
Enjoy your sandwich. I look forward to seeing the newly decorated wall.
It was perfect, plenty of tomato ketchup 😋😁
Hi Tina, just found your channel and am catching up. So rang a bell with me the nail varnish saga. I love pale pink sparkle but am very fussy normally end up putting the colour on then sparkles over the top! Love all your makes 👍🏻🧶
Yes , I'm definitely a fan of sparkles as a top layer 😁 Welcome to the channel
Lovely vlog Tina….thank you xx
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching
I like your cardigan Tina, 3rd time luck hey! Getting the right fit, perfect for British summer 😅 I have never grown sweet peas but would like to give them a go as they smell so gorgeous especially if they day has been warm, they smell Devine the the evening. I like Cosmos, maybe I ill give them a go as I usually buy some plants, hope you have success with yours 😊 I don’t mind the polish, but I know what you mean by “juicy orange and with your warm skin tone it would look really good. See you tomorrow, all being well, Suze. 🤗
Thanks Suze, good luck with your seeds 🌼🌾🏵
I've seen people mix nail polish colours to make a different colour (Like mixing paint). I haven't tried it, but it made sense when I saw it. I think they plopped some of each colour out and mixed with a toothpick.
I think I'll give that a miss . I know how messy I am 🤣 thanks for the idea 😄
@@Simplyinstitches Yeah, same here 😂
Your nails look good. I like that color on you. Love the cardigan. Have a terrific week.
Thank you, You too 😘
Hi hun. Love yr bargain jumper hun. Gorgeous colour. Great yips too. I could pop in and join u for the toasted cheese sandwich. What time shall I be round😁 love yr videos hun. Always informative, interesting and such fun. Take care. Xx
Thanks so much 😊 Sorry you missed out on the toasties 😁
I love the orange nail polish! It has a pretty sheen to it. For your cross stitching pieces to hang on the wall-you could change them out for the seasons, you could hang a few Spring related pieces then in June switch them out for Summer pieces..etc etc.. 😁
Yes that what I do around my home 😁
I like that top Tina! I thought the polish looked okay! Take care.
Thank you , I'm getting more use to it now 😊
I always luv ur colors. I've been ill and have not seen ur vlogs for several months. It looks like you've lost weight to me. I think those sweet peas will give a beautiful odor. Good luck!
I hope you are all better now . Yes I've been having problems with my digestive system over the past 6 months and lost a little weight. It was the 2021 lock down weight so I was happy to finally shake it off 😁
Im growing sweet-peas too, you can pinch the top off down to the next set of leaves and it will make them bushier, put the pinched out tip in some water and it should sprout, giving you more plants :-) They need lots of light now so put them in a window, probably need potting on too. Ive used loo rolls too, lol.
Excellent thank you , I didn't think about potting on 😊
Love that plain cardigan, ive got loads of yarn in stash!
I think plain cardigans are so useful and easier to wear . Thanks for watching
Hi Tina, just love your videos so much……I did live in Banbury around 1972-1973 and loved it so much, I was young but I do remember it! I also wanted to ask you about a tutorial you did gosh around 2016 maybe, I really don’t remember. It was a beginning shawl knit tutorial….i never did it but i would love to knit now, I just can’t find it. Thank you Tina! 💚💚💚
I took it down because the I pattern for the lace was quite complicated and a lot of people where getting in a mess . I didn't want to lead people into trouble. It's really hard to help with lace just by messaging so I thought it best to delete it 😌
@@Simplyinstitches That means sense, but would you have another shawl tutorial its little easier? 💚
I thought your nails looked great. Just a hint of color and no obvious chipping. That’s my favorite. I like bold colors, but I can’t be bothered to do my nails all the time. I like a polish that can disguise chips!
Exactly, the longer lasting the better, we have crafting to do 😃
Great video. I am terrible with seeds the only thing that works for me is cress lol. With your wall you might get away with a touch up of paint.
I like your thinking but I know it needs a refresh 😞😁
Tina, have you ever thought of trying sprouting ? Oh it’s wonderful, you get a whole big jar of green sprouts to put on your sandwiches, or like me, I grab some and eat them, right away, well, I have to land to grow plants, so this is my next best. You can use any multiple seeds you like, I do love radish seeds, Mung seeds, broccoli seeds, please you tube it, so simple yet so yummy. I carry on with three jars at a time.
That sounds interesting. I want to grow more herbs through summer. I love a salad full of fresh herbs maybe I should do sprouting as well 😃
@@SimplyinstitchesJust be super careful and watch some videos or read up on how to do it properly or you can make yourself very sick.
Good to see you Tina. Really like the look of your cardigan. Loving that orange nail varnish, really suits your skin tone, 🤩I noticed they sell Wilko nail polish in the Range now. It’s so annoying when they discontinue a favourite. The light isn’t good enough for painting 😘that’s what I keep telling myself, despite having bought the paint 3 weeks ago.😅. So just have to keep on crafting, so frustrating…not. 😂. Thanks for sharing April vlogs 🥳
Bad lighting , yes exactly 🤣 who can paint in these conditions. The Range , excellent thanks , I'll have to check it out . I think the orange may be down graded to my toes ☺️
@@Simplyinstitches 🤣🤣
Just an idea, you could paint 1 of the 4 walls a different color.
Your new top is very pretty and looks nice on you.
Here in Colorado we can’t plant 🪴 safely until the end of May.
At one time you had a video and showed us how you made vegetable stew in a special pot. I am not familiar with it, could you give me info on it?
Thanks for all your interesting videos!
I think you mean the soup maker . It looks a little like a big kettle . It pressure cooks it and then blends it in 20 minutes. I'm still using it and loving it
Yep, a good tip of they day. 🙂 Your new top looks so cozy. We have had a lot of Spring like weather but believe it or not we are having a snow storm here today. My daughter got about 20 cm. I don't know how much we'll get because it's still snowing. All that to say that you would be well suited to wear your new top here in Quebec. I used to love to plant Cosmos when I had my house. They are so reliable.
Stay warm and safe . We didn't have any snow this year . Lovely to look at if you don't need to travel x
Hello Tina,

💛💚💙🩵💜🤎🧡🙋♀️
Hello, thanks for watching 😃
👍🐨
Thanks for watching 😘
Love this style of video, good luck with those seeds, I have some sweet peas to sow as well, first time for me too, need to get on with it!💗
Good luck , I thought indoor sowing might give me a better chance of success. I find it hard to identify seedling with weed outside 🤔😖😁
@@Simplyinstitches they look the same definitely, I have a planter gift to sow my seeds in so hoping that works out 💗
Once you have two or three pairs of sweet pea leaves you can pinch out what’s above…and if you put what you’ve pinched off in water they will root and you get more plants. My sweet peas always go leggy because we only have such weak sun, but pinching will make them bush up a bit x
Thank you , that really helps . And I'll get extra plants , excellent 😃😘
You have a olive outer tone but you have a COOL undertone. It's the undertone you should be wearing. You look sallow when you wear WARM colors and radiant when you wear COOL colors. The cardigan cardigan you opened the show with is beautiful. I don't know if you color your hair or if that's your natural color. I think your a COOL winter. Or Cool something. Anyway love the podcast.
No sorry , I definitely look better with gold than silver. In my school photos you can definitely see the golden tones in my hair . I think it's the camera lighting that makes me look washed out , my white walls don't help 🫣😁
@@Simplyinstitches It very well could be the camera, your surroundings and lighting changing your appearance on screen. The other day you wore a navy blue top and looked good on camera and the shirt on today's video looked really nice on screen. The colors don't overpower you but compliment you . But again it could be your surroundings. I really enjoy your knitting segments and some of the beautiful crosstitch you make. I like the recent project with the crocuses. I understand how much time goes into these projects and how under appreciated hand work project are. Thanks for taking the time to share them with us. 🥰
Yayyyy Tinaaa 🤩💝
Happy Thursday 😁
Surprisingly I decided to paint my sewing room well cottage too and thought just do it white again. Anyway went to the paint department and got so confused with all the different white’s so picked a yellow. It’s absolutely beautiful and I’m so happy with it. Looks stunning with my Chrystal chandelier. Yes only room hubby would allow me to have one. I have a little cottage in our garden that my husband built me. It’s for my yarn crafts.😂 I have a sewing room in the house for all my dress making and quilting.
How luxurious, it sounds perfect
🥰🧵🪡🧶
Can you please do a tutorial for the cardigan?
No it's a paid for pattern so it's not allowed. I have a tutorial for the harvest cardigan. They are both beginner lever 😃
Hi your nail varnish looks nice ,I tried to get the one you got from wilco but the lady said they don't get repeated stock for long it's annoying ,xx
Very annoying, it was really good quality for the price as well . My quest continues for a replacement, let me know if you find a good one 😃
