I'm FINALLY Crafting For Me! | 8 Cricut Crafts I've Been Wanting To Make For Myself

[@nationaltrumpista1653]

I’ve been watching your channel for years and I finally realized, you have the most spectacular Disney Princess voice everrrrrr! I love it 👸👑💖

[@jeanniemilam6065]

Bethany I love how you live your faith out loud! May the Lord continue to bless you and your family! 🙏🏻

[@Bethadilly]

Always! Thank you!

[@betsy5931]

Goodness, that notebook was a nail biter! You’re a better person than me, I would’ve tossed that vinyl and cut a new one. Glad you kept it in the video though, you showed how a mishap can be repaired. I think that happens to all of us. As always, love your videos.

[@tamiegan6365]

Yes, I'm glad you kept that in because I would have tossed it and got a new one too. And it's nice to see a pro struggle a little bit to show us how to do it. Thank you! I love your videos.

[@accidentallycreative5025]

I’m a grandma crafter. I don’t have a basket but a wooden tray with all my bits on. I hide it in the ottoman until I need them

[@ginamickley8270]

❤❤❤❤ I love that you are willing to concede the orange!!

[@Roxanne-xx9nv]

Bethany, you make me smile. My family is always saying I can be a bit “extra” because I like to have everything coordinating as well. I’m currently working on decor for my quilt/craft room. My husband has six more years with the State Dept and then we will be on the search for our “forever” home. I’m already planning out my future craft area, it keeps me grounded when I feel overwhelmed with where we are living and where we might end up.

[@LittleMrsSherilyn]

I love the Bible basket!

[@rachelbee7921]

Bethany, you're such an inspiration!! Great job and perseverance. ❤❤❤👍🏽

[@carlyturow298]

I watched a video you posted about 3 months ago. It was about Target dollar spot Cricut jobs. You put “Home sweet home”on a Bumble bee pillow. I was so impressed how you redid the “H”. I enjoy your videos. Thank you

[@nichola90]

I wish I had, had you by my side yesterday! I'm going on holiday in six weeks so I've decorated mine and my Son's suitcases, passport covers, clothing etc. I bought some travel bottles for things like shampoo and conditioner and obviously they needed personalising.... Now, I'm currently decorating also, so my weeding tools are in a box somewhere which means all of my weeding I've had to use my nails 😅 I managed one bottle perfectly but the rest of them were no goes! I ended up giving up after around an hour and poured a glass of wine in stead! I may try again another day, we'll see 😂 ... I wish I had your patience!

[@blessedmomma85]

I love your videos! Also the fact that you are Godly and proud of it! This makes me more inspired. I recently watched how to decorate the cricut maker/explorer. I have been wanting to do this so badly! Thank you for thinking of almost everything and sharing your gift with us! You're amazing!! ❤

[@Jean2235177]

I mostly craft for myself. Right now I have two hoodies and one tee waiting in the wings for some magic. I recently lost weight and those are part of my new fall/winter wardrobe.

[@Jean2235177]

Thank you for discussing prewashing. I was wondering about that. 😉👍🏻

[@lindazabel5925]

The highlighters were so pretty when you done…you have so much patience!🥰

[@LoisMeunier]

I love that even when things aren’t going perfect you keep it in the video so we can see that it can be fixed, loved the video

[@brendagriffin6437]

I constantly craft for others. I have 10 Grandkids. Back to school is a big time as I add names to their equipment/clothing. I finally made myself a quilt this year. I have 2 wall hangings to make for our home, but I have 4 tree skirts and stockings to finish in buffalo plaid pattern for all of them. I basically took the summer off. Now I need to kick start myself to get going for the holidays.

[@katrinabrown2243]

❤ that was a nail-biter on the highlighters

[@marysumner335]

I use a pamperer chef dish scraper. It's random but it's the best!

[@JessikaCardwell]

Love watching your videos, it reminds me so much of my Aunt Donna ❤❤.... your Awesome

[@iammarysue]

I can’t pick a favorite. Loved your perseverance. 😅

[@lizadams5014]

Bethany!! I CANNOT believe you saved the vinyl for the binder! I thought it was a gonner!! 👏 👏 👏

[@Bethadilly]

Me too!! I am STILL shocked at how flawless that turned out! Such a lesson learned!

[@lizadams5014]

@Bethadilly It was amazing!! Also, I don't normally comment but you are my favorite to watch on KZbin! I LOVE all your videos and ideas. (And your nails are always on point! What are the colors you typically wear?) Keep up the great content! 🙌

[@jackiemartinez7260]

Love how the highlighters look! But everything was great! Thanks!

[@denniceburgess5791]

You handled all the adversity with grace!! Nice Job!!

[@Liz-ov8lb]

❤ I really like that You personalícese the bag and highlighters.

[@robiny1823]

🩷 I’ve learned so much about being patient and not giving up on a project from your “oopsies”! Thank you yet again. Now I need to go look up the James Method!

[@kaitlynnheflin6573]

🩵🩵 that notebook save though!! Giiiiirl! Great job!

[@Bethadilly]

Right?! That was insane!

[@kaitlynnheflin6573]

@@Bethadilly I would have teared up and just cut a new one 🤣 but you got the patience for both of us!

[@sheilawolfe2653]

❤ I find your voice so calming ❤

[@smokeynspike]

❤ I would have been so frustrated with the pens. Hahaha. Good job making it work except for lonely orange. 😁

[@geraldinekreppel2076]

Always enjoy watching you craft❤

[@denisefazio6708]

Patience is a virtue!

[@kimgraval08]

❤ I mostly craft for myself & my husband (no babies, yet). I made gifts with my Cricut for my parents for Mother’s Day & Fathers Day this year….there’s something to be said when you see a loved one’s face light up over what you made for them 😁 I’m so happy you made this video, Bethany - I’ve been hoping we would see a video of crafts just for you! I’m looking forward to your fall videos - I’ve just started crafting for fall myself.

[@nspiveyCM]

I love your Bible Study basket! Daily Grace Co is fabulous!

[@JstcountryGirl]

Ohhh Seamless is FANTASTIC!!! Matchless is great also!!! 💗 2 of my all time favorites!!

[@Bethadilly]

Yes! This is my 3rd time through Seamless and Matchless was a great study too!

[@sherylwelles2683]

I really enjoyed this video. Verse mapping is a great way to go through the Bible. Thank you for sharing!

[@destiniwilson4181]

❤ Thank you for all these ideas!!

[@maryweimer8207]

OOPs sorry for the spelling errors! Correcting in this format is hard.

[@Ortwa]

Wow! Love everything🤗. Thanks for sharing.

[@nationaltrumpista1653]

Wow…I finger punch zoomed in on my ph screen and that little flaw is flawless…good job Bethany!!!

[@Bethadilly]

Right!? I am still shocked! Never imagined it would be perfect like that!

[@maryweimer8207]

You are so patient! I would have given up very quickly. I've been there! But picking the wrong font is how you learn. Thank you so much for your patince and encouragment

[@katelynstewart9035]

🩵 loved this one!

[@tinaelliott8029]

❤ When I am working with little fonts or images, like you were working with for the highlighters, I like to reverse weed by placing my transfer tape over the whole image and weeding off of the transfer tape

[@maryallenb]

❤ You are so patient!

[@getcraftay]

So glad you took the time to create for yourself! Love the "me time" basket idea! That would make a really good gift idea!

[@kimtaft619]

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ I was having a tough day today and when I saw your video, it made my heart happy. Thanks for your video!

[@Bethadilly]

You are so welcome!

[@tekyntackett6552]

❤ Fun crafts! Always enjoy watching what you create!

[@mecreativebee]

I have so many projects on my list, it's been too much going on for me to be able to prioritize my crafting. And that makes me so unhappy, because crafting is such a huge part of me and my happiness. Both crafting for myself and to make cards/gifts for others. The cricut scrapers are so hard, it makes it so hard to work with. Oh, I have not realized that I can check what temperature I should use on their website, the Swedish version doesn't have a heat guide, so thank you for the tip. Of course I watch the whole video 💜You can also use vinyl on the binding if you feel like it's to much of a blank space. That basket came out gorgeous! My favorite was the binder. It really shows what you can do with something looking "so boring".

[@scraptist]

First off, you inspired me to make a sign for myself and add a vinyl saying to my prayer/study journal. So, thanks. Now, I have a tip for you. When you are cutting intricate fonts and designs, do a ln offset of around 2.5 and then cut the vinyl off the bigger piece in a square . First weed out the square and then all you are left with is the design and the offset. That way there is much less sticky mess when you weed off the offset, leaving just the design. Then take the scrap vinyl you pulled off, was it up and stuck it to your craft mat near where you are working. Then as you pick off the tiny bits with your weeding tool, they stick it wonderfully to the scrap vinyl instead of your hands. I hope all that made sense.

[@heather1881]

I have followed you since I believe shortly after you started your channel and have never commented! You were one of the first channels I started following after I got my first Cricut in November 2019. I mostly craft for others since I really love making gifts for friends and family to enjoy. But I really need to start making more stuff for myself though! 😊

[@lisadorough7114]

Ok, I'm waiting for Dollar Tree to open and there better be pinks and mint green items available 😅Live your ideas and you are a master of vinyl!

[@needleontherun5477]

I lived this video! Thanks! I loved the wood sign! That is my favorite. 😊

[@dawnscott5529]

You always inspire me to go through my craft room and use my stuff! Thank you! ❤

[@Shannamakesit]

I craft more for others, it seems like they are good about sending me what they want! That's okay, I find joy in serving others!

[@rolo7110]

❤ It’s great to do for yourself sometimes. Mine are all grown, but I remember having a hard time getting “me time” when they were young. Time with your babies and time for yourself are both wonderful and necessary. Your little ones get a happier mom and it makes their childhood that much more precious. Take care!

[@lori-jocarroll]

Everything was great! I don’t often craft for myself.

[@1dtrosclair]

Love watching your videos. Thanks for sharing

[@dawneaschollmeyer9162]

❤ I may not have a cricket but I do have a brother scan and cut. I love your tutorial 😊

[@mshotmess7437]

🧡I absolutely love the basket idea! I am going to make one for myself to carry all my goodies out on the porch when I read on the cooler afternoons! I also adore the Pray Big Worry Small sign. I will have to make that as soon as possible for my office! Thanks so much for the wonderful ideas!

[@caroledunn4452]

I love your videos. This was a great one! I absolutely loved your binder idea. I'm going to use that idea to organize some crochet patterns. Thanks for keeping the mistakes in. Keep the great videos coming!

[@sherrylynne6328]

Totally loved this video! I also loved the theme of it. I have been looking for a way to dive deeper into the Bible and I am so grateful for the your video! I went to Target this morning after church and picked up the basket and the binder. I ordered the pdf version of The James Method. I ordered the 2 books off of Amazon and I am so excited to be able to expand my knowledge and faith. I feel as I am set up for success. Thank you!! Sherry 🙂💕

[@paulakrumm8277]

Loved everything, Bethany! So inspiring to see how you deal with whoopsies. I have been struggling with some text on a project I am working on for a neighbor. You have given me motivation to try again today and to know that a small mistake doesn’t have to ruin the whole project. Thanks for all you do.

[@kelligarza5199]

@bethadilly I was just watching a video about the Cricut debossing tool and was wondering if you have ever used it. You and Cathy Z inspired me as a mainly Cricut crafter to try card making and I love trying to incorporate my Cricut into my cards. I'd love to see a video about the debossing tip!!❤ your videos!

[@LisaVornhagen]

All of your projects are wonderful! I love the basket and your perseverance with that binder! I totally get that. I have had many times where the vinyl just did not want to cooperate. The end results are totally worth it.

Oh my goodness! I could relate to you when those tiny words were so difficult to weed. I just made Taylor Swift song and album titles for my niece to place on a shadow box she made after attending the concert. The fonts were scripts and micro fine. I had to use every bit of patience, but I did it!

[@CraftyLifeMom]

Loved this video - inspired me to craft for myself - it seems I am always crafting for others. Love the Bible cover - where is it from?

[@Bethadilly]

Maybe Dayspring? I honestly can’t remember.

[@rsbaruba]

I am watching your videos at 2.55 in the morning because I cannot sleep. Very interesting I started with the dollar tree video, and now this one. First of all I like your voice , your style of presenting your ideas etc. ,but I do have a question for you you mention linking below your favorite vinyl maybe I am to tired, but for the life of me I cannot find a link.

[@DonnaJo3452]

Of course still watching! And I love the basket, such a neat idea. I'm single, live alone - but I do think gathering things to do in a cute basket is great. I would most likely up a cute basket with various types of watercoloring, alcohol ink, and colored pencils pens and marker and some of the cute coloring books I've purchased. To have something really cute like that would be an encouragement to work on them! I can probably come up with other types of baskets! Pretty to use as decorations too! Actually my whole house is my craft room. I have various areas set up to do different things. My love is my ScanNCut so it's on my dining table - ready to use! Thanks for the encouragement! 💗😘 I think Mr. Pen is a brand that does pens and markers to use in Bibles. Have you tried those?

[@Bethadilly]

Mr. pen are the pens I am labeling in this video. :)

[@keilamiron4409]

OMG! I just finished watching your video. I need that basket too! Where did you get the bag for your bible? I put my stuff on a basket for my scripture study too, not as pretty as yours. I think mine will need an update and I’ll totally follow all your ideas! Thanks for sharing!
