Oh Brandi ...thank you! I needed this candle laugh. Lesson learned from this just cover the wooden bowl with wide enough ribbon and decorations and you wont see what is under it!!! I fractured my back in June as if living with chronic lower back problems for 23 years wasn't enough! I really needed this laugh. Love ya
I really liked the dupe with the plungers. It really looks like birch.Birch. With the candle...I'm so glad you share with us things that don't go as planned - it is encouraging to me when things go wrong on my end. Great vlog - Thanks
You are so welcome! I appreciate that! That is the main reason I started this channel. I was doing diy proejects around my home looking for help on youtube. And, peoples just smiled in my face and pretend everything was easy but somehow when I WENT TO DO IT, it was not MAGICALLY this easy!
Yes, remember that nothing is perfect, we all love the uneekness of it, snowflakes are not perfect that is why I love them, all different, your snow flake is so beautiful
Excellent! I made some pillows using the canvas tote bags from DT. I left the handles on so we can take them with us - insuring a clean place to park our hine-ees. I took an old plain pillow, used half of the stuffing. I did put twine stitches on the opening and I can put them in the laundry if needed. The picture/writing might wash out but it doesn’t bother me. It’s a great hack for using the burlap totes! I hope that DT will have gingerbread totes (or maybe you could look elsewhere for me?). I agree that the pillows are great to cuddle up with or place on your back when it hurts…hmmm maybe an idea - place a heat pack in the “pocket” you create…?❤❤❤
I love Christmas 🎄 in July it gives me new ideas and plans for my Christmas decor thank you for sharing your great ideas very pretty adorable 🎄🎄❤️💚❤️💚❤️💚
Lord Brandy, you cracked me up all the way through this video! Tassel school starts in 5 minutes 🤣🤣 you have everyone beat with your painting skills! I could watch you paint for days! Love all the trees you made. I may attempt it one day. Your encouragement one think I can! I love everything you duped yours were better like always. Love the snowmen too! You are just amazing. So glad our paths crossed! Craft on lady! 😊❤👍💯😊
You are hilarious my friend! Love ya for it. 😂 Of course they are all great but my favorite is the one with a bunch of trees and all the variations of color. I love to watch you paint...relaxing...Thanks for making my night. ❤😂 You're a trip!😂
I made you’re tree painting last year as a gift to my son. However I added deer stencils to the base. It turned out so pretty. I shd have taken a pic so I cd have shown you. Thanks for all your awesome tips.
Hey, where is my picture!??!?!?! lol I love pictures!! You can always email me or send me a dm on IG!! ANd, I am just giving you a hard time! I am so happy it turned out so beautiful!
I love to watch you paint. I thought the 3 trees were my favorite. Then you did the painting of the black and white trees. They're both very beautiful. Can't decide which is my favorite so I think they're both my favs. I'd like to see more video's of your paintings. Amazing Brandi.
I love the round ones for snowman.. I love the tips you gave me on the cutter and I so love you way of cutting them, I do have weak wrists & hands are week. I love yours so festie.. I thinkg the pillow is lovely, right on my sofa for all to see but not use. lol
I am glad I can help! I think so often we forget that doing things like this comes with struggles of their own, and I want to help people find ways to do things more comfortable!
So I took a chance and followed your tut on the tree landscape you did on a canvas and did mine on a woodround and your right, anyone can do it!! I literally can't draw or paint anything other then a flat colour but here I did blending and layers it gave me such a confidence boost!!! ❤❤❤
Hi, Brandi, you just popped up so I thought I'd watch one of your videos...well, I'm three videos in so I had to subscribe. I think you are a lot of fun to listen to! TFS all your tips and tricks! Blessings for continued success on your channel.
I am so glad I happened up on your channel! I’ll be headed to dollar tree tomorrow for PLUNGERS! I would probably think I have a serious plumbing issue… It will give my small Texas town something to talk about!
Lmaooo ahhh Brandi you have me DYING with the bowl candle dupe. That's totally a NAILED IT!!!😂😂😂 Ahhh I love it. Your reaction was what did it though. I would've been hysterically laughing at myself too so don't feel bad at alllllll!!! I absolutely LOVE your video commentary. Your projects are amazing, obviously, but your personality does it for me! ❤❤❤❤ loving the Where's Waldo shirt too, btw. I should give u my knee high socks I have that match!😊😍
I love the laughs you bring to your videos. Living alone it's nice to have you 4 company so I can enjoy myself. The plunger logs are amazing and I am definitely making them. I love the snowmen beads as well as the chunky wood ones. So many great projects and I really enjoyed this video.
I was so happy to see you paint! Loved the black grey and white tree scape!! Please teach us how to paint ⛄️ snowmen! Pretty please?!?! They are my favorite ❤. Ty always enjoy spending time with you!!

I am so glad I am your kind of people! That always makes things better..lol Thank you very very much for the love Susanne! I hope I can keep you entertained!
The tree I love so much, it looks so real, like you laid the branches instead of paint. Somehow I am going to like trying to meake the last one when you put the celery paint on, I love it.. I don't like the last straight out tree but the other trees are gorgeous. Thank you so much, I really love everything you do, Now I got to go shopping at the $1.00 tree, LOL. God bless you and yours
I love the faux birch plunger handles 🥰 (there's a sentence I never thought I'd type! lol) Seriously though, I'm so glad you put this compilation together (I forgot about so many of them!) so that I could save the video! Tons of creative, unique, and beautiful Christmas DIYs, Brandi! Thanks, girlie! ❤
These are all beautiful... I couldn't pick a favorite out of all of them if I had to... Do I have to tell you every time I saw your arm on the screen I couldn't help but think WHERES WALDO?😂😂😂😂 HAVE A BLESSED WEEKEND
Thank you, Thank you! I loved all of these DIYs! You are so talented, I wish I could paint like you!! I also love how you explain everything in detail and why. Thank you so much for the inspirations and the lessons ❤️❤️
Wow, so I’m not a new sub but not a long time one either…definitely a fan for life, I LOVE your videos and personality. I got to see YOU, your ACTUAL face as opposed to the animated one, and girrrrrl, you are so amazing! Big brown eyes and I love, (hope you don’t take offense to this), the gaps in your teeth, that are perfectly straight btw, but with a matching upper and lower gap…lol so cool. So much better than madonnas! Lol Thx for always leaving me feeling happy and cheered up, you seem like you’d be a blast to hang out with! 💕Just wanted to let you know😊
I love this comment so much. Funny story. I had braces and they removed parts of my gums between my front teeth and even put a plate behind my front teeth because nothing stopped that gap from coming back. The plate snapped one day and I said muck it. GOD OBVIOUSLY wants me to have a gap so ima embrace it...lol I used to be self conscious about it, but it's so part of my personality now I couldn't imagine not having it.!!! Thanks so much for the sweet comment!!
@@thediystruggle that’s crazy! Funny how the process was trying to get rid of something that was meant to be! It’s adorable and I’m glad knowing others see it as awesome helps you feel happy how it worked out! Your personality is really the sweetest and most relatable. Now, I have Lots Of videos to catch up on….omg. (Insert MY crazy expression here)!😊
Where have you been??? I just found your channel, and I'm so excited! You craft the same way I do! I Crack myself up all the time!! Your painting is awesome!!
I have been here for 3 years struggling Donna!!! Where have you been???? lol JK!!! Nice to meet you! I am so happy you are enjoying the content! I hope I can keep you entertained for years to come!!
Love your crafts but I came to the comments to say I am SO glad my family aren’t the only ones who say “Home Dee-Pot” and it made me so happy to hear you say that. I thought it was funny how you caught yourself and corrected it but I wanted to make sure I took the time to tell you I see you, fellow Home Dee-Potter!🥹😆
@@thediystruggle 🥰 awwww! I’m so glad! You bring so much joy to me. If I still lived on the East Coast I swear you’d be one of my best friends! I just dig you ! You just keep doing you. Cause you are AMAZING! ❤️❤️😘😘
Oh Brandi ...thank you! I needed this candle laugh. Lesson learned from this just cover the wooden bowl with wide enough ribbon and decorations and you wont see what is under it!!! I fractured my back in June as if living with chronic lower back problems for 23 years wasn't enough! I really needed this laugh. Love ya
I hope you feel better soon♥️
You “WUNG IT😂😂😂”. I can recall a couple stubborn projects that I can say I “FLUNG IT!”
😅😅😅😅
I love that you laugh at yourself, it would be a better world if more people could/would do that. You are a joy to watch. Thank you
I really liked the dupe with the plungers. It really looks like birch.Birch.
With the candle...I'm so glad you share with us things that don't go as planned - it is encouraging to me when things go wrong on my end.

I love the logs, they look so real and I love the tag.
You have incredible painting skills. Love all the dupes.
