Dear, sweet Harriett, I’ve watched you from the start for years now; thank you so much for all your inspiration, phenomenal talent, skill, and charming personality ( and correct grammar)... You and your husband are special treasures to work so hard to provide this type of cheer for us. I love your ideas (sometimes modified to meet the needs of the gift, etc.) for my gift tags, greeting cards, recipe cards, birth announcements, just keep a “set up” to paint a Harriett on anything I need throughout the year, just for personal use. I’ve learned so much from you and it has brought such joy to my friends and family as well as to me. You touch more lives than you may know in numbers. It is such a wonderful way to eliminate stress and share a little sweetness during this season and all the time. Thank you! Thank you!

Loving it ! No rush if it’s September! ❤

[@BarbaraF-q8p]

Lovely! I'm feel challenged for sure, and having lots of fun at the same time. Thank you.

[@rachelknight1064]

I was really quite scared of this one, but it came out better than my pie and parcel! I am not practising first, just having a go and loving trying. Thank you Harriet

[@annehebert6959]

I have done this with you since you first started doing these calendars. Yes - sometimes I feel a little challenged - but I will say that my drawing skills have improved...as well as my painting. This wreath is beautiful - full and lush. Thank you for sharing another great mini painting

[@firstart-joys]

Same here 💖🌲💝🎄🎁

[@TheArtfulAddict]

I love how full and lush the wreath turned out, and the large bow is a perfect addition!! ❤

[@ramarieb]

I am finding the calendar easier than last year-thank you-& am loving the different images where I can add a little of my metallic paints!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

You are so welcome! I did take the feedback on board from last year

[@claudettecurran6185]

I love wreaths and the fancier the better. This wreath is quite regal looking. A bit of practicing on the ribbon and then on to the calendar. So very pretty. Thank you. Very pleased with my results. 🎀🎄🎀🎄🎀

[@carmenvogels-aagaard5559]

WOW, this one is my favourite so far!

[@Carina-2906]

[@LadyCroft86]

I can't wait to paint this today. It looks amazing! But I'm scared of the bow 😅

[@deWintonPaperCo]

You can do it!

[@kimharbaugh]

I’m guessing it was September when she painted the lovely calendar ☺️

[@candybourgeois6916]

Thank you for pausing a little longer before rubbing it out ... much easier to capture the screen shot of the sketch!

[@KathyM-c6i]

If it were my choice, I'd much prefer that you show more of how you complete the details (the greenery, etc), rather than jumping past them. As a novice, watching you create all of those little strokes helps me learn; whereas, the more advanced artists could fast-forward. Thank you so much for these videos - they're really helping me! PS I only recently discovered your channel and am just about halfway through watching every one of them! You are a natural teacher and a very talented artist. I appreciate you. 😊

[@nancycahill8746]

I love your style, I really want to go on one of your painting retreats but once you change the Canada 🇨🇦 funds to pounds it gets very expensive. Maybe you can come to Canada sometime and do a retreat here. 🫶.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Maybe one day!
