How exciting to see you and Cori face to face and getting to know two of my “best friends”. The only thing that would have made it better, would have been there with all you wonderful creative ladies. 🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️

Hello Ladies,I am faithful follower of both your channels. Love your ideas and kind thoughts. Thank you both and all the other wonderful people who share their ideas and talent. Both of you are very good teachers. I have only completed 1 journal so far. I'm very new very very new , So please keep the ideas flowing and chat coming, Gayle forget about all the people who make those awful comments, don't let them hurt your feelings. Other crafters have talked about some of these peple also. Some people are unhappy and don't want to be helped.They need more paper and glue. This is my first comment section so enough. Happy crafting . want to hear all about the retreat. Donna

Gayle You Are Amazing and I Thank You for doing this retreat . I watch Cori and now I have a new friend Eve. This is so special thanks for bringing us along. Kat

[@cindyhoffmannsmith8877]

I was selling at a craft show on Memorial Day so I'm watching on Wednesday morning. You two are some of my favorites! At the show I talked to several papercrafters and the enthusiasm was through the roof! They were excited to meet someone who was making and selling junk journals (me) and were eager to share which channels they watch and love. Enjoyed your conversation immensely! Thanks!

[@shadowgirl815]

Such Beautiful Ladies...Thank you for sharing your love of crafting with all of us! Side note...I was praying a pinecone didn't fall from the tree with all that wind!

[@veronicawhite398]

I'm so used to seeing only the hands, that when I see you in your entirety, it takes a moment or two for the old grey cells to adjust! Hahaha...love the jumper, Gayle, thought I recognized the art work. Veronica x

[@DeniseS-6867]

Hello Gayle and Cori, it was so nice to see the faces of the crafters' I love to watch creating. TFS

[@barbaracheatham692]

So great to put a face to Cori’s voice. Gayle I saw you last year. My favorite vacation was a two week cruise and land tour with my mom. I didn’t have any time to craft, there is way to much to do and see.

[@jamigiannaccini9447]

Thank you for sharing!! Love watching the videos! You both are very much my inspiration. I scrapbook make cards and in the past year I started making journals. And thanks to you ladies and many more I have bloomed! It is definitely relaxing, therapeutic to do what you love❤️Again Thank You Ladies!

[@freidagepner2370]

Loved this! Nice to have a face to go with your voice Cori. Gayle you should be able to do more of these because I love meeting others in our junk journal world. Blessings to us both

[@lynneaberr1878]

I didn’t expect a video today and was totally surprised. It’s great to see Cori, and Gayle, you’re so flexible with that foot up in the air. I’m definitely not flexible I’m not sure I ever was that flexible .

[@vintagestudio7175]

So fun to meet other crafters! I love this idea and thanks for taking the time! Also, very cool to meet a fellow Washingtonian!

[@terricolberg4636]

OMG‼️🙏💚 Gayle and Cori together… amazing crafting ladies and great people! Love watching all your videos, so thank you ladies for sharing “your all”…to all of us and keeping us going in crafting land. Always remember, We really stick together, but never tacky! We work with sharp objects but always soft spoken. And most of all, our craft is mingled with love and prayers! God bless you for sharing 👌😉🙏💚‼️

[@BlackDogDesigns]

Looks like fun was had by all, what a blessing!

[@kathyr1980]

I couldn't help but smile during this whole video. I wish I could attend a retreat like this. How inspiring! Thanks for sharing. I hope you took some more videos or pictures to show us. I can't wait to learn new things that came out of this retreat! 💖💖💖

[@sallymorch2076]

I agree, lovely to see the people behind the voice. You two are just how I pictured you. Your enthusiasm and love for everyone and all you do comes through.

[@heatherdoane1195]

What an honour to see and listen to both of you wonderful ladies! I attended a one day crop on Saturday, and how fantastic to be back laughing, eating and creating with like-minded friends. If either or both of you ever get the chance to visit Canada, you would be welcomed with open arms! 🥰❤️🇨🇦

[@mariannespmmissouri1913]

[@theposhmaniac5169]

Thank you for the fun video! I felt like I was there w/ my 2 great friends who are filled w/ creativity! So nice to put a face behind all those videos I watch too. Can you show the cabin sometime along w/ the mountains? Have a terrific time! TFS

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

[@lauraharmon659]

I absolutely LOVE you two!!!

[@KippsKorner]

Fun conversation with Cori! Indeed, we all inspire each other! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@milliedk]

How wonderful to see and listen to you... You know, you KZbinrs sometimes say that it can be a fulltime job to do videos, but I tell you, it's becoming a fulltime job watching all you fab creatores in YT land (not really, but feels like it, can't keep up 🤭😂)! I love the idea of the mum with the dog being able to get help through the fond. I so agree, pets are just great. se have 2 dogs, 4 cats, 25 bunnies and 4 Icelandic horses (I breed bunnies and horses...). Wish I Gould come to one of your retreats one day,but it's a bit too far unfortunately 😬 Take care everyone 💖

[@TimelessTreasuresbyOlgaSGonzal]

Love you ladies. You are so inspiring

[@ericastannard2635]

Years ago, I lived in Pullman Washington & I was a beginner quilter back then. There was a large club with years & years of experience among the women who always had a retreat 2 times a year in a church camp up in the panhandle of Idaho, so not too far from where you must be! Those are some of my best memories & the creativity & energy that just flowed from being together was just incredible! Now I’m in in north-eastern Kansas, so a road trip from here would be a bit long! Seeing the wind blow your hair around & the gorgeous scenery surrounding you, even the camp chairs, took me right back 25 years! Thanks so much!

[@cherylemery8594]

Oh Gayle, such a wonderful video. Thank you!

[@enchanteddreams7166]

Love this chat! You ladies are amazing. I'm so glad your having a fabulous time xoxo

[@MsDianaWeeks]

So happy for all you gal's. Blessings to all, can't wait to see and hear about all the beauty being shared there :)

[@kathielemon9546]

This is everything I needed to see! Thank you Gayle and Cori, I was so hoping you would do a little video together. You are my two favorites and I have learned so much from both of you and this was the icing on the cake. 😊

[@karenpuschmann4157]

Such a lovely chat

[@ThePaintedPigg]

You guys look great. Share your beauty secrets!💚 Enjoy watching your channels. Always inspired!🐷💚💚💚

[@elzanneshepperson6729]

This is awesome. Now I can put a face to the Gayle and videos I've been watching, following and love. Gayle you're gorgeous and doesn't look your age at all. 💜

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you so much, dear Elzanne! ❤️

[@elzanneshepperson6729]

You're most welcome!!

[@sparklingbeautiful]

Good morning, What a wonderful segment...thank you so much for sharing. This is so exciting to watch and love the Gayle wear you both are wearing. One day I will be so happy to attend a retreat. Thanks again for sharing xoxo SparklingChar Happy Crafting (^.^)

[@caroltanzi29]

Gayle: I think you interviewing other crafters is an excellent idea. It allows others to get to know them a bit better. Cori’s idea of using Etsy as a fundraiser venue is a super idea. I’m a city girl, but have been involved in many, many fundraisers and with my AKA, the Goddess of Garbage, who creates items from discards for the home, this could be an tool to use. You see,- just watching that segment, an idea came from it. Fabulous! Cori and I already have several things in common and I don’t really know her. Carol from California

[@LynsAlteredArts]

Cori’s idea is a great one, I’m going to have to ask my vet if he has any kind of fund for people that can’t afford treatment, my guess by knowing him for many years is that he does not. Maybe he’d be willing to start one.

[@wendyloomes5728]

So fun to see your faces beautiful women who inspire us all in spades thank you ❤️

[@carolpowerslavenderdreamsc1599]

So fun to see you and Cori in person! Hope you have a blessed time at the retreat. Thanks for taking the time to do this interview!! 💜

[@lotto4554]

This is so cool that you did this! Thank you both. I don’t think people realize you can do service through your journalling. I make 12 journals at a time for a battered women’s shelter. They give them blank notebooks to journal in so this gives those women a chance to experience junk journalling and find places to tuck little notes that are super private about what they are going through!

[@donnatolle1419]

Cori is just so lovely. She is quite comfortable in front of the camera. Great little chat. Thanks Gayle.

[@theposhmaniac5169]

What a terrific idea! Going to look into this for my local shelter. Thank you!

[@rosemariewatz6741]

What a delightful surprise. I finally got to see Gayle after watching her videos for so long and only seeing her hands and occasionally the top of her head. I would give anything to have been able to attend one of your retreats. If we have them here, (I am in Australia), I don't know about them, but the one thing journalers all seem to have in common is the most caring natures you will ever find. That is obvious in Gayle and Cori (although I have only watched a few of her videos) seem the same. After having lived through the hardest year of my life, how lucky was I to have found the journalers who turned out to be the most compassionate, caring people. Much more so than my own family. I thank God for Gayle, Terre, Bettina, Lena, Helen and the list just goes on and on and that is only in the States. The rest of the world have their own special people who journal, even Australia. It is a phenomenon, that is all I can say. Gayle and Cori you are both beautiful women, I would love to see more of you on your videos and tutorials. Take care and God bless and love all of you for your kindness and care... Rose.

[@kaythomas9918]
