  • how I make every day matter - living a small dream
    Hello! In this video I didn't want to so much 'verbally' explain how I make every day matter, but instead show you how I make it matter by simply recording simple daily tasks: painting, connecting with others, creating, harvesting, cooking, eating, etc. I hope it is an example of little ways I like to stay mindful and loving in my daily routines, which is not always easy, but as someone who is pursuing a more peaceful life, it benefits me greatly. Hope it brings you a moment of peace!

    I feel like we don't talk enough about you as a director. Like, the way you arrange your videos, the camera angles, the combination of nature footage and action footage are all really nice. Your really put together videos in a way that feels like a whole aesthetic/artistic experience. Anyway, I like what you do.

    I think your art is beautiful, I find it astonishing that anyone would bother to write mean things, the old saying "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all" is very true. If people don't like these vlogs, that is their right, but why not just move along and not come back? It's not hard. 1.4M an probably more viewers than subscribers can't be wrong. You deserve all of your success. x

    I love being strange, and weird and childish, and I am 66 years young! You are such a beautiful soul Paola, both inside and out. Who wants to be boring? Those folk who criticize you, should look to themselves first I feel. You are the most amazing young woman, and thank goodness we can still watch, and listen to you on here - thank you, from the bottom of my heart and soul, for all your videos, and for being true to yourself. We all love you. xxx

    Thank goodness for the "weird" souls in this world. The world would be a boring place, and with them it is so much more interesting. It takes bravery to forge your own path in this world but is truly worth it. Thank you for remaining true to yourself Paola. Nicole's lily that she created for you was so beautiful!! Have a lovely week. 🏵🐞🌻💖

    My grandfather died when I was 7 yrs.old. He loved flowers 💐 and helped my grandmother with them. His favorite was the orange Tiger Lilly. He was dying of lung cancer and my grandmother brought the lillies to him. He watched the buds but they would open when he was asleep. He wanted so bad to see one open. When they all opened he went home with Jesus. Later on my Aunt Judy had a dream about him. She could see him in a green meadow. He told her he had to hurry because he had a friend coming soon. He told her he tended to the flowers. Not long after that dream, his best friend went home to heaven.❤ ➕ ❤

    I am a historian, genealogist and worked in archaeology for 5 years. With that in mind when people ask me what I like to do do I reply with, "I like to hang out in old places, with old stuff, and dead people. A cemetery is my favorite place to go and explore." I know people think I'm weird and I don't care. If someone was to say that to my face, I'd thank them with a wink. We are all unique and all have something to share and your work is definitely worth sharing in the crazy world we live in today. Thank you; I look so forward to your videos.

    Sweet Cottage Fairy, Has anyone told you that you are a modern day Tasha Tudor? Your videos are magical. The effort taken with each shot, the thoughtfulness taken to create each setting, the music, your beautiful feminine clothing and old fashion style are breathtaking! Your video’s are authentic because your are willing to share your vulnerability and heart with all of us ❤️ Thank you for creating something so beautiful in this challenging world 🙏🏻

    It's a shame that some people have to be nasty to those brave enough to reveal their true selves. It truly is a reflection of that person. You are an incredibly lovely soul, one as delicate as the flowers your cherish. That is an incredible piece you've created with Nicole. Perhaps a future collaboration in jewellery or wee ornaments is in store? Thank you for continuing with the creations of these videos and all your other art work as well. Your videos are a genuine treat to watch and very soothing in a complicated world.
