    I’m not sure how the background music didn’t export for the ending of project 3 😢 It was so magical!

      No worries, Drew! I found myself inwardly hearing one of the lovely tunes you tend to use for display moments. And in a way, the silence was nice also! Holiday blessings, and thank you for all you do! Love this channel! 😊💜

      Thanks Drew! My husband drinks wine and plays chess, so he'd love either of those gifts! I'll have to see if he's got an electric bolt cutter without telling him why I want to use it. The drill is no problem. I love the candle idea too and my daughter loves candles!

      What paint do you use on the candles that is ideal for heat/fire?

    Drew, I loved each one of these DIY projects.
    Creating handmade gifts like these is far more rewarding than buying something off the shelf.
    I know the people close to
    me are keenly aware of my time … Giving a gift like this would mean more to them than a gift card … it means… I thought about you… I devoted my time and kept your style and colors in mind… and, I hope you love it … as I love you 💕
    Thanks for always keeping it real. RR

    @paulap7386 11 місяців тому +25

    The reason it feels so natural and normal to you ( creating ) is because its who you are, meaning its the best way for you to express the divine spark you are . When we all follow our joy, creativity, excitement ( what ever individual form that takes) we are living our true selves. Thank you for being an example of this Drew.

    The chess board project is fantastic--great for my friend with dogs who needs hanging space for leashes and collars, and the bookmark for my friends who read a lot and the wine corks and the checkered candles. . . I think you just solved half my Christmas gift list!

  • @shereeralph3802
    @shereeralph3802 11 місяців тому +2

    I love the chess board “Coat Check” but if you are giving it to someone that likes chess, learning to play the game so the pieces are actually “in check” (or at least the correct spots on the board) might be a good idea, or it could annoy them. Probably of more importance is to countersink the screw holes on the back, so the screw heads don’t damage your wall.
    The candles are inspired! ☺️ I already had some on my shopping list, but this elevates them so much - I’ll have to try it!

    @glendashine9468 11 місяців тому +8

    I am so excited that I received my Lone Fox purchases from your holiday store this week. They are beautiful of course but I must congratulate who wraps the items for shipping. Every piece was so amazingly wrapped and secure so that there was no possibility of breakage.

    I have to admit how much I missed your DIY video last year. I can say this with all honesty, that YOUR DIY projects are the only ones I still have out in my home! The one that gets the most comments is the $.50 plastic bowl and cup (from Target) glued together and covered with baking soda chalk paint. I filled mine with a beautiful green moss and have it placed on stack books! My grandsons love chess, so I will have to make the chess board project you did today for their room!!

    Happy Holidays Drew. If you add a bit of dish soap, I use Dawn, to your acrylic paint it helps it stick to the candles when you’re painting.

    I loved your projects, the lone Fox tissue paper, and especially seen the fire behind you. It really seemed to bring the mantle decorations to life. I hope we get another house tour for Christmas. And I would love to see Nicholas Fairford visiting your home and you visiting his.

    Drew - thank you so much for sharing these! They are all wonderful! My husband's family has a "Dollar Gift" (yes, $1) swap tradition and coming up with my idea is always the most stressful (but sometimes fun) part of the holidays for me. All of these ideas could be a Dollar Gift using things I already have around the house but are still really cool and useful! Happy Holidays!

    This is the first comment I have ever posted for a video and I have to say this is probably one of the best Christmas diy gift videos out there. I stumbled across this video and I am so happy I did. The way you walk us through the projects is so easy to follow along with and I especially appreciate the tips you give along the way - like how to make the petals on the bookmark. After watching your video I am excited to make bookmarks for my friends for Christmas. Now, I’m off to binge the rest of your Christmas DIY videos 😊. THANK YOU for your great video and unique gift ideas.
