Thank you! And I love your YT handle - that made me smile 😍. Thank you for watching - much appreciated. 🙏💕

@@RainbowLane thank you. It is a derivative of a nick name I had when I was 14. I am now 42 and it has just always been with me. Lol.

That's brilliant! You sound like my kind of people!!!! 😍

Thank you Judi - glad you like them and thanks so much for watching. 🙏💕

I know! Isn’t it great when we find something to do with all this lovely crafty stuff people like us tend to collect! Glad you liked the video, have loads of fun creating your painted papers and thanks so much for watching.🙏💕

Doh! Thank you! I have just added in the coptic binding link to Sea Lemon's video in the description below and also a link to my blog. Thanks for the nudge - I am what is politely known as a scatterbrain. 🥴 Thanks for taking time to ask. 🙏💕

Glad you like them - thanks for watching, much appreciated. 🙏💕

You are so welcome! Really pleased you like it. Thanks for watching🙏💕

Thank you Melinda - I really appreciate that🤗 And thanks so much for watching🙏💕

Hi Terri-Marie, I have thought about that before but am never sure if it's a bit kind of me, me, me - like, does anyone really care where a person works or do they just want to see how something is done 🤷‍♀️. It's funny that you asked because I did actually film inside my camper van during this video to show people where I was working but I left it out in the end as the video was so long. I also filmed some of the places we we camped but left them out too. At home, I have my office/studio which was waaaaay too messy to ever film! I didn't even like family or friends going in there. But it all got me down because I couldn't find anything and I have spent the last couple of months clearing out SO much stuff. I've taken tons of craft stuff to a local community shop where people with life challenges go to do crafts and make stuff to sell. So it's all looking much tider now and I can find stuff easier! I'll have a think about it Terri-Marie - I don't want to bore people with stuff about me that they might not be interested in. By the way, I have tried to answer an email you sent me ages ago but for some reason it's always bounced back - something to do with AOL and me being in the UK. I tried loads of times but gave up in the end. Thanks for watching. 🙏💕

@@RainbowLane Thank you Gilly. I love your art, your creativity with the paper beads etc. I have been a fan for a long time as with two of my accounts. I like seeing other people's work stations as I find it inspiring, and offers other crafters insights for storage that they may not have thought of. Like you I have offloaded a lot of my craft supplies as we had to downsize our home. My main focus now is paper beads, bead-work, and Journal Making. I love how vibrant your art is, and keep saying I should buy inks. I live the gold technique you use, will try that next time I get the paints out. I have been watching videos about the UK narrow-boats, and I guess that is why I was asking for a view of your creative space. Thanks again for your videos, I think I have watched all of them. I always look forward to your new ones. And often re-watch your older ones because I feel we are kindred spirits LOL!

Thank you Terri-Marie - I may do a brief look at where I work in my next but one video - I'm thinking about it!😍 One of the reasons I am offloading stuff is because I know I can't possibly use it all before I pop my clogs and it worries me to leave it all for my boys to deal with. We had such a huge job on our hands clearing my parents' belongings when they passed and I don't want to do that to my family. Things are so different now, no one has the time to sort through someone else's accumulated 'stuff' so we are making an effort to clear the house of all but the things we actually use. It also feels so much better clearing space. And I know the young people at the place where I take it all will have fun using it. They'll also sell what they make which is brilliant. You're welcome to chat with me over on FB - always happy to chat crafts!!!!😂 Take care and thanks for reaching out. 🙏💕

Thank you - glad you like it. Thank you for watching. 🙏💕

Oh that’s a shame - can you get those white suits we have in DIY stores - the kind you wear if you are decorating. They look a bit like paper suits but they are usually Tyvek and you can just cut them up. Have you tried googling Tyvek envelopes? I use them sometimes. I hope you can find some because it is fun to use. Thanks for watching. 🙏💕

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I don’t like music playing in tutorials either - it can get very annoying. Thanks for watching - much appreciated. 🙏💕

Which ones are they? Is that the Starlight paints?

That’s a great idea - so easy to just poke into a jar and wipe off - I’m going to try that next time I have to do more sticks. Thank you for the tip. 🙏♥️

Glad you like it - very therapeutic! 😂Thanks for watching and taking time to comment. 🙏💕

Oh really? Apologies for that - it’s all done automatically and it’s something I need to look into when I get time. I try to make it really clear where the link to the free printables are. I’m glad you found the link. Thanks for letting me know what your experience was - it’s very helpful. 🙏💕

Thank you - glad you like them. 🙏💕

Hi Carol, apologies for the delay in replying - I didn't actually glaze those beads because I used glossy paper. That bracelet is stil going strong without being glazed. If I were to glaze beads where I'd used the cake sticks, I would probably do it after putting the sticks in. Hope you are well and thank you for watching. 🙏💕

Hi Carol, it is a very useful tool but I'm not sure what it is called - I will ask my husband, I'm sure he will know - it was actually one of his that I comandeered for my crafts! Will come back to you on that. Thansk for watching.🙏💕

Hi Holly-Marie, no it isn't, it's an acrylic water-based product which can be used like resin, in this case. I prefer it because it doesn't have the resin odour or fumes. Thanks for your question and for watching.🙏💕

Thank you Reba, hope your paint skin necklace turns out really beautiful. Thanks so much for watching. 🙏💕

Hi Karen, the only place I know of is online. I’d love to be able to tell you a proper shop to get them in but I don’t know of any in the UK. If you type into an online search, Europunch 1/.8mm round hole punch pliers you will get options come up. I got mine from Amazon in the UK but they are coming up on Beadaholique.com too. Hope you fine it, it is a brilliant little tool to have in your craft kit. Thanks for watching. 🙏💕

Hi Belinda, it depends where you live - I am sure the big craft stores in the US will have them. There are three main brands Gelli Arts, Speedball and Gel Press. I just checked to see if Hobbycraft in the UK has them but I can’t see it listed. I got mine online through Amazon but there are other online options in the UK if you do a search. If you live in the USA, just do an online search for where to buy Gelli Arts in the USA and a list of stores, state by state, comes up on Gelli Arts website. You can also make your own gel plate which is quite easy. You use gelatin powder and glycerin - if you do a search for how to make your own gel plate, lots of instructions come up. Apologies if you live somewhere else other than UK or USA but I am only familiar with outlets in those two countries. However, as gel painting is so popular, the pads should be easy to get or order from most countries. Hope you find one! Thanks for watching. 🙏💕

You are most welcome Joy. Running out of printer ink is so annoying! I saved up to buy one with tanks instead of cartridges and it made a massive difference. Of course you may already have one but if you don’t and you do a lot of printing, the Epson Eco Tank models are fantastic. I got my mine in 2018 and bought my first set of refills in 2020 and I do A LOT of full color printing! The printers are more expensive than the cartridge ones but what you save in ink costs makes up for it really quickly. Thanks for watching Joy, always appreciated. 🙏💕

You are most welcome Lisa - glad you like them. Thanks for watching. 🙏💕

Thank you for your kind words Beverly. It’s coming up to the second anniversary now so the grief is a little less raw. We miss her very much but are thankful for the lovely memories. Thanks so much for watching the bead tutorials, glad you are enjoying them. 🙏💕

Hi Sonia, apologies for the delay in replying. All the cut files I have are in my etsy shop but they have been designed for Silhouette Cameo rather than Cricut. Cricut users do buy them but I do warn buyers that they were made for Silhouette. I don’t give my cut files away as free printables as they take more work to create. Also, they have been purchased by so many people, it wouldn’t be right to start giving them away. If you do an etsy search for bead strip cut files for Cricut, there are a huge number of choices at very reasonable prices. Thanks for watching and good luck with your new hobby. 🙏💕

Hi Marie, thanks for your comment. The free printable is still available if you click here www.funcraftstodoathome.com/how-to-make-round-paper-beads/ you will go to my original blog post about it. Scroll down to the end of the post where it says And now for the free printable and you will see the link to it. It is still there, I haven’t taken it down. Thanks so much for watching and have fun making your round beads. 🙏💕

@@RainbowLane thank you so much. I found them and all your LOVELY freebies. TFS

You are very welcome. Thank you for watching! 🙏💕

Hi Stephanie, thanks so much for watching and taking time to comment. Have fun making lots of lovely earring. Lots more free printables coming! Thank you.🙏💕

Hi and thank you for your question. Unfortunately, I don’t sell jewelry, I only teach people how to make their own. I used to sell my crafts many years ago but I don’t have the time now to make enough stock for selling. But thank you for your enquiry. 🙏💕

You are very welcome and thank you so much for taking time to leave a comment. Thanks for watching 🙏💕

Thank you Lynn glad you like them. Thank you for watching. 🙏💕

You are very welcome Donna, I hope you enjoy making some of these yourself. Thank you so much for watching. 🙏💕

You are very welcome - I hope you enjoy your crafty adventure and make some beautiful beads😍. Thanks for watching 🙏💕

You are most welcome - thank you for watching. 🙏💕

You are most welcome - I love creating designs and having people to give them to gives me motivation - so it works both ways! So thanks for being here, it’s much appreciated. 🙏💕

Thank you for your lovely feedback. You made me smile with the screwing it up part 😍I think all us crafters know that feeling well!! Glad you like the video and have fun making your own. Thanks for watching and reaching out. 🙏💕

No Nancy, they would not. They would be splash proof using Mod Podge’s lovely Dimensional Magic but not waterproof. I have accidentally been swimming while wearing a choker with one paper bead on it glazed with Dimensional Magic and it was fine after I dried it out. However, I definitely wouldn’t recommend it as an everyday occurrence! With anything handmade using paper, you need to treat the item as you would any jewellery you love. Protect it from water. Thanks for watching and for your question. 🙏💕

I used standard magazine pages, you can see me cutting them up at the start of this video. It’s great fun using magazine pages, you can get some lovely effects. Thanks for watching. 🙏💕

Thank you Jac - I really appreciate your feedback. As you have taken time to leave a comment, I will make sure the stars and hearts design is included in my next bundle. Thank you for watching and reaching out 🙏❤️ 🌟

Hi Barbara, oh yes, I forgot about that! I used to use cereal box card for lots of projects and I did make beads with my grandchildren quite a long time ago. They are nice and chunky aren’t they. Thanks so much for watching and taking time to reach out with an idea that other people may enjoy trying🙏💕

Hi Terri-Marie, yes very well thank you and I hope you are too. Many thanks for your lovely comment and glad to hear you want to get rolling beads again! I always miss it when I'm too busy with life to to get to it. There never seems to be enough time these days to do everything! You are most welcome and thank you for watching, it's my viewers and readers who motivate me to keep coming up with designs. Happy crafting and thanks for taking time to leave a comment. 🙏💕

Thank you Kimberly, glad you like them. Thank you so much for watching and for taking time to leave a comment. Much appreciated.🙏💕

Hi Judy, this video is six years old and was published on here BEFORE I started doing my free printables. I have no way of changing what I say in a video once it is published so what you hear me say about it being in my etsy shop is what I said the day it was published - I have not changed anything. If you listen to what I say in this video, I make it clear from the start that the design is in my etsy shop - I say it again at the end. What made you think it was free? I created this design in 2018 and didn't start giving away free designs until 2019. Since 2019, I have given away 99% of what I have designed. There are even a couple of free printables on my website that I took FROM my etsy shop - but I have never done it the other way round. So I am mystified by your comment and am wondering why you think that particular design was free but now isn't. That is not how I work. Your comment has serious implications for what you seem to be saying about my integrity.

You are most welcome Jill, glad you like them. Thanks as always for watching and taking time to leave a comment. It is always appreciated.🙏💕

You are very welcome. 🙏💕

Oh thank you! You are most welcome. Glad you like them. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. 🙏❤️
