never realised when this became one of my comfort channels, love your videos it is so relaxing and soothing, i always watch them when i am stressed 💕💕💕🤗🤗🤗

[@cupsandthoughts]

you’re so kind, thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🤍🤍

[@laralia1972]

Pls never stop making videos! I've noticed how your videos bring me so much joy, I've been feeling down lately and I was thinking "I need a video from Cath. That'll boost my mood." so thank youuu!!

[@cupsandthoughts]

definitelt not any time soon!! 🥰 thank you for the support!! i’m so happy my videos have that effect on you 🥹🤍🤍

[@severinetompsett9602]

I really liove when you do videos about books and tea and food and garden, and cafes around you... I'm really not into unboxing stuff, but lots of people seem to like it and feel the cozy vibes. Maybe I'm too old or don't care much about material things.... Go figure! Anyway, my favourite book was probably the Little Princess from F. H. Burnett. I wanted to be as brave as her, who was still reading, studying, being kind and virtuous in the middle of hard times and bad people. I read it many times and sometimes, I still go through it :)

[@tatibri02]

The vibes of your videos are always immaculate!! I have kind of been a silent watcher for a couple months now, and your videos have really brought me back into reading and journaling as a way to relax throughout a busy semester! Thank you for sharing and putting so much work into these beautiful videos!!❤ I don't think I particularly have a favorite childhood book, but one that was really memorable for me as a child was Ella Enchanted!

[@beckbabej]

Beautiful video! My favorite childhood book is the Little Princess. I never read the Little Prince until I was an adult, but it touched me immediately and I've read it again many times. How creative and lovely to create a keyboard out of the love of the book, what a special gift it would be to have one.

[@konstantina09]

Your videos always come when I need them the most ❤️ my favourite childhood book was Polyanna! Now as an adult I love “a winter’s promise” by Christelle Dabos. Thank you for the giveaway and all the cozy, wonderful videos you provide us with

[@cupsandthoughts]

aww glad they can keep you company’ 🥰✨ i’ve been meaning to read the christelle dabos series for a while now! 🥹

[@emlymom]

[@trueblue2902]

Your videos are always so calming and comforting! I've been a lurker for a bit, but I always use your videos to help me feel inspired when I'm creating as well.

[@ZimVader-0017]

The Little Prince keyboards 😭❤ Loved the yellow one. It's very sunny. I couldn't tell you what my favorite childhood book was. I've read so many books, everything just blurs together, and I've been reading since I was three years old 😅 I do remember that my mother bought my sisters and I this huge book of classic Brothers Grimm stories that we read over and over.

[@rowanswaen]

[@suzidavenport-hill5419]

This video had me from the minute it started, part of me wonders if I’m supposed to be too old for this sort of content and instead should be looking at videos aimed at middle aged mums with teenage children. But this was bliss! Thank you soooo much 💖. Oooo and I would love to win one of these gorgeous whimsy Little Prince keyboards to have at work with me in my office, to remind me that growing up is optional. My favourite book was The Velveteen Rabbit 💖
