I have to say that I'm so happy to have watched this video......I think it's one of your best ever. Looking forward now to the next one....Thanks, Heather

[@CreateYourOwnCozy]

Wow, thank you! What a sweet compliment! 🥰

[@lesliejackson8188]

*Heather, my favorites are the decoupaged piggie board and the "seed" box; although I would use it for edible floral recipes. 💜🍃🌺 Recipes with rose petals, nasturtiums, squash blossoms, dandelion leaves, mint and violets are delicious❣️😋* *You may wish to try using a brayer on your larger stamps to make sure every part of the stamp comes in contact with the surface you want to stamp and has significant pressure to make a complete imprint to save you from going over the missed part of your stamp a second time. I find a brayer is really helpful❣️😉 Or, you could use a hard plastic scraping tool (like a handleless bowl scraper) to press down your stamp evenly, if that is easier for you. 😉😊💜 Very nice projects today; I'm looking forward to your tutorials next week‼️😎👌🥰*

[@CreateYourOwnCozy]

I will totally use the brayer next time! Thanks for the suggestion and for watching!

[@ruthfitzwater-cn3vc]

My dad made a pig cutting board for my mom years ago and it was well worn and used. They are both passed now and I decoupaged a cute vegetable and script napkin to it and hung it in my kitchen between two chicken plaques my brother made. It’s a sweet reminder of my loved ones. I love how Henry’s tail starts wagging when he sees mama filming him!

[@CreateYourOwnCozy]

I love that story of your cutting board with so many fun memories! 🥰

You should do a scrap piece where you aren’t worried about messing up to see how easy it can be!!!

I really like the stamp paint stamp technique. You did a plate with that technique a year or so ago and I thought it was one of the prettiest things I’d seen on YT. The one you did in this video is beautiful. I love the decoupage paper on the pig but now it’s harder for me to tell it’s a pig.

[@carlaferrovecchio950]

This is why I prefer budget friendly DIY channels. Not everyone can afford the pricey stamps and IOD type products or even have money for much of the products you use. I’m a retired disabled veteran, I live on a budget, a tight one. Good luck with your channel tho.

[@colleenlevy825]

I think these videos are really meant for inspiration and techniques. Acrylic paint and chalk paint from Walmart or even thrift stores or yard sales will work just fine and any stamps will also work. I have IOD stamps and DIY paint but I also have Walmart paint and stamps I have collected over the years that are just the rubber stamps on blocks and this technique works perfectly with those as well. I also use cheap colored pencils or markers to color in my stamps. Hopefully you will stick around and enjoy the fun inspirational content that Heather puts out because it's truly for anyone no matter what your budget is. Don't let your creativity be limited by products. Sometimes, I find I am even more creative when I don't have the exact product that someone is using 😊❤

[@kmarch6630]

Amazon has many of these products, just different brands and much cheaper. Items like the IOD stamps are going to last forever though.

[@CreateYourOwnCozy]

Thank you so much for your feedback and I truly understand your dilemma! The whole reason I DIY in the first place is not being able to afford retail prices in a lot of situations. I hope that you will still be able to get inspired to create with your surroundings and not let not having a certain product get in your way! 🥰

Hey my girlie…. I haven’t watched this video yet, but I wanted to tell you that I’ve noticed you’ve lost a lot of weight lately and you’ve always been beautiful, but you even look happier. Are u doing anything different? Diet? Exercise? Please share… lol help ur girl out!! 😊

[@CreateYourOwnCozy]

I have lost some weight! It has been a process and a number of things working together to get the results that change my ability to be comfortable in my own skin. I think the most significant thing this time around has been my therapy work. I have uncovered some childhood trauma and dealt with my desire to hide in my own body. I am now at the point where I don’t want to cover myself up with weight so I don’t get that kind of attention and it’s a vulnerable place. It’s not perfect but it’s a process and it’s what has helped me!
