    I love watching your videos, your accent is very pleasing ❤
    I have several Dutch books from a thrift store near me, likely they came from the large community of Hutterites that are in my area.
    Lots of love all the way from Alberta Canada 😊

      Yessss it was Kung Fu! I was thinking either that or Roots. I think it was on tv about the same .

    I have no Dutch ancestors, but I love hearing about your country. I especially like hearing the Dutch words. I had no idea so many Dutch knew English! I always wondered how you learned it (and so well!) and if your husband spoke it as well. I'm astonished by your knowledge of US pop culture and our idioms and sayings!
    So many beautiful ones!! Hard to choose my favorite, but either of the birds, or the one with the huge pine tree!

    LOVING these!!!! I'm working through all of your older videos. I hope these comments help you as well with the UA-cam algorithms.
    I have strong language chameleon effect. I can be in a conversation with someone for just a few minutes before my accent changes to theirs. I was at a wedding once and was sitting with an entire table of Ontario Canadians. You would have thought I was born and raised there by the end of the night. Lol.

    15:20 ..... Me yelling at screen *"CUT FROM THE OTHER SIDE!!!"*
    15:30 ..... Me 😳 .... "she can hear me....?"
    😁😁😁
    Ok, I'll continue watching now. 😘
    Just gorgeous! I love every single one of them! I think the bird one with the long tail is my favourite.
    On Etsy, (and eBay, and Amazon, and AliExpress and any other shopping site.... 🙄) when I'm browsing on the sites for bits that catch my eye, instead of jotting them down on a notepad, I put them in my shopping basket on the site. I have no intention of buying each and every item I put in my baskets, (I wish!) but when I have some pennies to spare I'll go through my baskets and buy one or two of the most important. I've got about 20 sets of bedding in my baskets, for example, all in different colours and themes, then I'll choose my least favourite and delete it, etc etc, and I end up with only a definite choice left for when I'm ready to buy.
    ANYHOO....let me get to my bloody point! 🤭
    So, on Etsy, I've got about 50 Digi kits playing the Hokey Cokey in my shopping basket:
    *Sing along now...*
    🎵 I'll keep the Ledgers in,
    The Roses out,
    Too many Fussy Cuts - (I hate to cut them out!)
    Do I really need a Sparkling Winter Wonderland?
    I'll probably hardly use it I doubt!
    Ohhh the Basket Hokey Cokey,
    Choosing really sends me cranky,
    Hard to pick they're all so lovely,
    Choice made, card paid, Rah Rah Rah! 🎵
    I can't help myself... I digress in the middle of digressing! 😳
    Arghhh! So, as I was saying, or trying to 🙄.... I went to Etsy, annoyed by my forgetfulness and muttering angrily to myself:
    *"FFS I KEEP FORGETTING TRACEY FOX LABELS, GO GRAB SOME FOR THE BASKET BEFORE YOU FORGET AGAIN STUPID WOMAN!!!!"*
    So there I am mooching, and thinking which sets to choose first, and something about them looks familiar to me...??? 🤔
    Turns out I've already got about 6 sets in my basket, of course by LOVE JUNK JOURNALS - Tracey's shop name! 🤣
    So I'd forgotten...that I'd remembered!
    I'm blaming you, I'm seeing labels and numbers everywhere! I can't keep up with my brain thinking of new ways to use labels, and why I'd never realised that a raffle ticket is a piece of art before now?? I turned the calendar to November the other day, and thought, "don't throw out October's page... there's numbers on there!" 😁
    Another beautiful, inspiring video my love! You're addictive! You're like Crack!
    Now there's a compliment you never thought you'd receive! 😂🤣😅😘

      You mentioned that you were surprised by people saying they had Dutch ancestry...? I'd think, in America at least, quite a lot of them would. The Dutch were some of the first to colonise areas over there, you knew that...? New York was originally called New Amsterdam, (🎵 New York, New York, so good they named it twice! 🎵 😁)
      You're lovely! So sweet and I love your accent. I play around with my words when talking to myself too, to try out different accents. 😁 Now if I could just get my crafts to mimic yours, I'd be thrilled! 😘😘😘

    • @SevenplazaCreative
      @SevenplazaCreative  2 роки тому +1

      Did you know that 2 more area's in New York originaly had Dutch Names. Harlem used to be Haarlem a rather big city in the Netherlands and Brooklyn used to be Breukelen that is a hard word to pronounce when you are not Dutch ;-)

    • @tamielizabethallaway2413
      @tamielizabethallaway2413 2 роки тому

      @@SevenplazaCreative I did not know! Although, now you say that, I'm sure I've seen Haarlem written somewhere before...? Maybe when I visited Holland? But I was only a girl then, and it was still Holland, not The Netherlands at the time.....a long time ago. I came back with a doll in Dutch costume, and a love of both windmills and tulips that still lasts today. (I had costume dolls from every country we went to) So maybe we stayed near or drove near Haarlem...? I can definitely visualise it now you say it.
      Us Europeans eh? Infiltrated everywhere! 😂😜😘
