Thank you for taking the time to explain and work at a pace where anyone can follow along and learn from you! I also appreciate your sense of humor which is a must when working with the public.

    Love how you stacked the smaller ribbons on the wider ones. Some people mix them in with wider ribbon. Also saw Arlynn from arlynns country crafts use a mermaid inside a lantern . Made it myself, even used a smaller mermaid in a small lantern. Glued the Lon skinny shells tucked in the ribbon. It was adorable.

    It's always encouraging to see someone that does beautiful crafts make a faux pas
    because then we feel like even the best aren't perfect. They are just like me.
    I love your stuff, I've been doing wreaths for many years and never thought to sell
    them. But I am thinking of opening a shop at home.

    Hi! I am so happy I found you today. I have learned so much from you today! I’ve been struggling to make a lantern swag. You have given such wonderful directions and you demonstrate just how and where to place the flowers and ribbon. Other videos I’ve watched gave general directions and left out showing each placement of flowers, bows etc. You show each step on camera and explain before going to the next. Please continue making your excellent videos! I’m a newbie and you have helped remove my frustration on making a swag. I can’t wait to view your other videos. 💗🌺🌸💗🌺🌸

    Another beautiful creation. I have been binging on your channel. I have worked as a floral designer on both the retail and wholesale level. It was never “work” for me either. It was/is very calming and very satisfying moment in my day. Your eye for the small detailing makes a difference. I also cover the behind the scenes on my arrangements. To me it is the final approval from me. Thank you for sharing your talent.
