[@CraftyThoughtsandWhatnots]

Oh! u noticed that huh? U truly are a pumpkin sister! LOL or can we say we are Pump-*KIN. LOL thanks so mcuh for being here with me.. many hugs my fellow pumpkin friend!

[@CraftyThoughtsandWhatnots]

LOL good! lol Happy cheese is the best cheese. LOL Thanks so much for joining me here! Many hugs and happy crafting!

[@lucymacdonald8828]

Love it all... But especially the picture frame Christmas tree. I also embrace the direction that my crafts take me; I noticed the 'notch' in the frame that you left as is... Not even sure if you mentioned it... This is how the frame is and that's it. The twigs for the trunk, the unique tree color, the simplicity of its decor, the doubled star... All add to the beauty of this project... I would display this one in my home... I am new to your videos but will surely come back for more... Happy Holidays ...

[@CraftyThoughtsandWhatnots]

Ty for joining me here and welcome! So happy to hear how much u liked this creation! Makes my day! Many hugs and happy crafting!

[@shellycoon7674]

Nice job on your first craft, I can got what you were saying about the wedding look of it, but for me when you added those pinecones it looked Christmasy. With the bow on it and it being finished, it looks very pretty. I also have seen people make pillows from placemats but folding it in half and making a smaller pillow is a good idea. I agree with you about the star and leaving it the natural color, I think it was because you had that little piece of burlap on your pillow that made the natural color of that star look good. That pillow looks very pretty. I like your framed tree. It looks really nice.

[@CraftyThoughtsandWhatnots]

Yes! Ty so much! The pinecones were a good addition once i saw them on the table.. i forgot i took them out to start the project. LOL Thanks for joining me here! Many hugs and happy crafting!

[@cathymoore2252]

[@CraftyThoughtsandWhatnots]

LOL I live in the city and the nastiest thing Ive ever come across here is the pig farm out in the outskirts of the city.. lol Glad u enjoy my odd humor. Thanks for being here with me! Many hugs and happy crafting!

[@sugarhillcrafter1044]

Whitney, I just happened upon your channel and love everything you’ve made! I have Covid right now so was surfing trying to take my mind off of how lousy I feel. You’re so funny that I laughed out loud a time or two! Great projects. Can’t wait to see what else you have made. Merry Christmas! Joan

[@brendatrahin8100]

Love the pillow but not sure how you did it. Did you just fold it in half ? Then glue the side and then stuff it? Did you make an opening with the lining?

[@CraftyThoughtsandWhatnots]

yes! That is exactly what i did.. fold in half.. glue sides and top.. leave an opening and stuff it.. no need to separate the lining.. just stuff the space u made when folding it in half. Ty for joining me here! Many hugs and happy crafting!
