I am Leaving.. (Life update)

[@andreapwhite939]

Hello! This is my first time commenting and I want to take the time to say that I’m happy for you! I’m 65 and looking forward to the changes that will come for me and I’m praying for your adventures to come! I will be here WHENEVER you return to us and I’m sure others will be here as well! BTW I love your videos, I’m subscribed and I always ‘like’ your videos before I even watch them because I know what I’m going to get! Blessings to you and your family!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Awww thank you Andrea, your comment has made my day!!! ☀️ I'm so thankful to you for your kind words and so glad you enjoy my videos. Thank you for liking them, it really does help KZbin know you enjoy them and helps them spread to more creative friends. You're the best!! xo

[@juliamullie8677]

Oh, I am so excited for you! Another KZbin friend of mine moved into her new home that she had built about a year ago and her home is amazing. Her craft room is beautiful. I can’t wait to see your new craft space. I just know it’s gonna be amazing! I wish you all the best on your new adventure!

[@prudencelay6067]

Will miss you until you return….

[@CreatedByGwen]

That's super sweet, thank you! 🌸

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you! I am downsizing my space so I'm not sure how "amazing" it will be, but I will very content with it none the less. It will be nice to have a fresh start and I look forward to curating my collection of supplies and keeping just the stuff I love!

[@justcoffee491]

I am so excited for you. Have fun planning and scrapbooking the memories as you go along.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much! 🌸

[@sarahj4cardsandcrafts]

Blessings on your new adventure! A new home with new possibilities is fantastic! Enjoy!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@lyndaharris9711]

How exciting and daunting for you. I'm so happy to hear that you won't be stopping You Tube forever. Thanks Gwen. 😊

[@CreatedByGwen]

I love it too much to stop!! Thanks so much for your support xo

[@bettymetz3746]

How exciting Gwen. I’m rather new to your channel but promise to stay around through all the changes. You know how nosy us women are, so please keep us posted step by step. Show us the ground where your new abode will be?? Best of luck and blessings from Ohio.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Oh Betty lolol... this made me giggle! Thanks for the support 🌷

Good Luck…We will still be here! Will love to see the process and you journey to your new home! So exciting!!!

[@CreatedByGwen]

[@RayRay-tr2bj]

CONGRATULATIONS! Building a new home is very exciting!! Starting fresh is FUN! I kind of think it should be done multiple times in life. Shakes things up and it is REFRESHING!!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Yes, I was feeling very comfortable and was looking for a change, so I'm glad we have taken the leap! It's just that being in the messy middle is not fun. I'll be happy when things are a little more settled.

[@shannondaring]

Very exciting! You'll be busy! All the best to you and family.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you! 🎀

[@DeenaSowell]

How exciting!!! So happy for you both! Praise God!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much Deena!! 🙌

[@Lainers2000]

I’m happy for you and wish you well on your journey. Looking forward to the box up and unboxing in the new crafting space. I will stay subscribed and look forward to whatever you’re able to share with us. Don’t forget the “shorts.” Maybe a “hello” to let us know you are well. See you soon.

[@CreatedByGwen]

I will pop into the community tab for sure and update you and share as many videos as I can! Promise!!

[@karenjarman3489]

Congratulations my friend. What awesome news.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you Karen!! Exciting times ahead!!

[@KathysScraps]

How exciting that your house sold for more than you expected & in 4 days! I am so happy that you're getting to move again & you've found the perfect property to build on. Just remember to pace yourself & yes, take lots of pictures & share when you can 🎉

[@CreatedByGwen]

I know right??? Amazing!! We had one open home and 8 offers, 2 of them were cash!! Such a dream for a seller. The market here is very competitive and when a great house comes on the market, everyone wants it, we were certainly very blessed! 😇

[@eafields]

Congratulations! How very exciting for you & your family!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much!

[@jenniferoja9566]

That’s exciting and difficult all in one I am sure. I will be following along your journey.

Thank you so much Shelly, that's super kind of you to say. I'll be back as soon as I can be!

[@raeraesma]

Thank goodness! I was worried about you, and kept checking for videos. That’s such exciting news! You’ll have to document your move, so lots of new layouts in the future. Good luck with your move. ❤

[@CreatedByGwen]

I knew you would be... gosh, so much going on. I've spent so much time on realestate.com it's CRAZY!!! Glad to have my weekends back that's for sure. I can get back into my studio. I promise I'm not going anywhere, just a short season of fewer videos until I get stuff sorted out and then I'll be back!

[@ledonnamacurdy6081]

Best wishes to you! I hope everything goes as smoothly as it can and you love your new home!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you! I'll keep you updated along the way 🎀

[@pieceocountry]

Congrats on your big changes! Wishing you peace as you navigate the hard parts and wishing for all the best! I'd love to see videos on your packing up and moving and setting up a temporary space. Plus seeing how the new house -- and your new craft room -- is progressing would be fun.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much!! I'll keep you updated... I'm still sitting here surrounded by boxes 🙈

[@LoJo99]

Congratulations… very exciting. The cool thing is you’ve built before, so all the times you’ve said wish “we would have" done this or that… now you can.

[@CreatedByGwen]

You learn as you go along and there are most definitely things I'd do differently second time around that's for sure. This move is a little different though because we are down sizing. I hope I get all the choices right!!

[@Louisegrahamsqhobart]

So excited for you and the next stage of your journey. Also excited to watch your transition.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you Louise 🌷

[@BetsyJ555]

Wow! Congratulations Gwen. I have had the same feelings in my heart about moving somewhere away from the city to a more peaceful life. We will be doing that too in the near future. I can’t wait. I very much appreciate your videos and the FB group. It’s totally understandable that your videos and posts will be inconsistent for a while. Moving and packing is a huge task but always worth it for a new adventure.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thanks so much Betsy!! I'll be popping into the FB Group to keep you updated too. It's exciting and terrifying all at once but I know it will be worth it!! xo

[@karenbeldon4417]

Congrats to you and your dream coming true!! 🥳 So glad you aren’t leaving the channel!!

No way could I leave everyone! I love being here so much 🌷 I promise to share as much as I can along the way.

[@tammytwp8697]

Good luck on your new adventure!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you! 🎀

[@suzboeh633]

Best wishes to you! Sounds like a wonderful adventure. As someone who crafts in a small space with most things stores in a closet, I would love to see how you take down your craft area and how you will craft in a temporary space before you get into your dream home.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you! The new house space will actually be a down-size so I think you're going to enjoy that too! I'll record what I can :)

[@gardeninggrandma5247]

Gwen, the best of luck to you in your new venture. Looking forward to seeing your move and your new craft space. I would advise living in your new craft space before deciding on custom cabinets. I have built-ins, and they really don't allow for any flexibility in the room if I wanted to change things up. If it's something you really want, then go for it! Just a word of caution, but they do look beautiful!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you for this suggestion, I was thinking about that! I've had my IKEA units for so long now and we are down-sizing so some of that needs to change. I don't want to commit to a custom option if I'm not sure I'll like it. I really appreciate this advice, I'm thinking I might do it in a few steps... eg. Move into the space, and then get the cabinets done.

[@reginavandyke781]

Can’t wait to see your new craft room!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Neither can I 🤣 🤣 🤣 I'll keep you updated.

[@lionunderthestars7019]

Hi, Gwen What wonderful and exciting news for you. Just a suggestion, because I have a poor memory. When you don't have time to video, please try to give us a quick update on your community tab. When other KZbinrs have "disappeared" on me, I always check the community tab after a few weeks for news. I perfectly understand life changes and the need to take a break for various reasons, but at some point, no word at all, leads me to believe a channel has ended. Wishing you the best and looking forward to more exciting news. Nancy

[@margaretcastellano3167]

I would appreciate this!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Great idea! I will keep that in mind for sure. Appreciate you leaving this suggestion here.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Will do Margaret!!!

[@luv_paper_ribbon]

[@kimmorin7847]

Oh Gwen! How an we be anything but excited for you! What amazing news! It might prove to be a bit of a long journey but if you remember your destination, it can be so exciting!! Congratulations! Just remember to number your boxes and take photos of what is in each box! It will make the unpacking so much easier

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much Kim for your wise tip! I have started packing a few things and have NOT labelled things well 🙈 🙈 🙈 New house is a down-size so will need to purge some things as well.

[@deannahogue3713]

Hi Gwen! WOW, what exciting news!! I am super happy for you and I can't wait to see your new craft room. You have been so blessed with this new opportunity, and I wish you the very best.

Congratulations!! Sounds like it was meant to be, everything seemed to fall in place for you. Your house is sold , you have land & a rental. Even though it’s scary that will change to excitement. I’m looking forward to any videos you’re able to make , I’m not going anywhere. Take care. Peace and Blessings.

[@marybethcully5883]

Congratulations…a new home is exciting and completely churning…just remember to breathe and let all the changes and emotions flow through. We sold our home that quickly and moved to our retirement community a few years back, we love everything about it but it was difficult but so absolutely worth it. We will be here and look forward to your new space!!!❤

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much for sharing Mary, it will be a downsize for us and yes super exciting and terrifying all at once because we were so so comfortable 🤣 I know it will all be worth it!

[@mareekerwin]

I wish you all the best with your big move and your new home. Our first home sold within a week of putting it on the market. That was many years ago. We have been in our home for 30 years now. I am so glad you will continue your you tube channel. I always look forward to your tutorials. I am very excited for you and I am sure you will have an amazing craft room.🙂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you so much Donna... I remember when the kids could ride their bikes down our street, it was EMPTY of cars and now, it's so much busier and filled with cars parked on both sides. So much busier!!! Glad we were able to sell quickly and cannot wait to see how this adventure goes. I'll keep you updated 🌷

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thanks Ali, yeah parts of the GC are crazy busy, so it will be nice to move to a quieter area. I remember the girls could all ride their bikes down our street safely when they were little and now it’s packed with cars. Super excited to be down sizing and going somewhere quieter 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Taitcreates639]

New to your channel, so very exited for you. We had built our dream home on top of a mountain in Co, my kids were born there, it was a gorgeous home, we got to design the lower half. Years later we moved back home, Canada, and Western Nee York. Our home sold in a day with a big amount more than what we paid. I’ll always miss that beautiful customized home in Colorado, but we wanted to be near our parents as they were getting older. It was a beautiful journey. God Bless

[@CreatedByGwen]

I will miss our big customized house too... we raised our family there and it's now time to down size both the house and the land it's on so we can have more time to relax. It's been a big roller coaster of emotions but I know in my heart it will all be worth it in the end.

[@leithmcdougall4620]

Hi Gwen, I get how terrifying yet exciting this is for you. So many new possibilities. You will certainly be missed but I look forward to seeing the little steps on this new adventure. So many more stories to tell. I am from Brisbane and very much hope to meet you in person one day, but it is our dream to eventually move to Lennox Head or Mudjimba.

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you lovely! Do you know what?? I think we may have met once actually, at the Scrapbook Expo in June?? Maybe? Such an exciting and terrifying time lolol... I hope you get your dream too, Lennox Head is a STUNNING part of the world!

Oh, happy day!!! What an exciting adventure. You have been so good an instructor. You DESERVE THIS!!! ps: I retired a while ago. Your adventure has inspired me to try more new things. And don't worry. Just let us know how you are doing. PS: my son have also lived in one home his entire life. Lots of stability!!!!!

[@CreatedByGwen]

Thank you!!! Yes, my daughter who is 17 has never been in a different house, this house was the house she came home to as a baby... surreal to be leaving it behind BUT it's time for a new adventure. It's time to down size and get something more manageable with the garden and be in a quieter part of the Gold Coast. Being comfortable is so EASY but nothing worthwhile came from easy right? xo

Thank you so much! Oh yes, you don't get rid of me that easy, I love it here!! xo

[@lizzyfp3542]

I just found your channel but I'm in a similar situation, we'd been in our first home for over 20 years but we also felt the need for a change and so we prepared our home and it sold in 4 days for more than we asked for it and we moved into a rental. Unfortunately we've had large delays in the development of the parcel of land we chose, but things are moving forward now, and we should be in our new home by Christmas 2025 🤞 Love having an aussie papercrafter channel will definitely pick your brains for any local suppliers!! (Even tho im in Vic!)

I'm sorry to hear your house is not selling quickly, we were very very lucky!! I can't imagine this roller-coaster of a ride going on for too long, it's so stressful isn't it! I hope you get an outcome really soon lovely!! 🌸

[@Mari-cre8s]

We are in a similar situation after a devastating ice storm this past winter. It’s been very hard to leave our home we built 30 years ago on beautiful acreage! But we are getting too old for that much care. Everyone’s feedback is that it is still a beautiful space, but no offers yet after 6 weeks. Very, very stressful as you know. Let’s hope things align for all of us soon so we can move on with less stress! 🧑🏼‍🎨😀

[@CreatedByGwen]

Big yards and houses take a lot of work. I will not miss our very large and hard to maintain garden, that's for sure!! I'm sure the perfect family who is meant for your home will find it very soon. 💗

[@brendaelainewaddell1682]

Wow Gwen. How very exciting. We moved a few years ago from a large home in a bustling city where we had been for about 27 years to a smaller community and smaller house as our children had grown and left home. It was chaotic and yet wonderful to set up in a smaller, friendlier community. We now live just around the corner from our daughter, son-in-law and our one and only darling granddaughter and are delighted to be more involved with her. We are so happy in our new town. I wish you a great new and exciting adventure. I look forward to videos from you as and when you can. ❤ 🇨🇦 😊

[@CreatedByGwen]

That's exactly what we are doing, smaller home that is more manageable in a quieter neighbourhood. It will be worth it in the end, I just know it. I promise to keep you in the loop!

❤ Sending up Prayers for you and your family! I know this going to be an adventure, as well as a lot of hard work! My husband and I are also facing some life-style decisions.... my Mother needs us, and we are 2100 miles away! She's legally blind, and nearly 89 years young! Yesterday was our 7th anniversarry in this house, and we are comfortable! So I will keep a watch for your updates, Gwen! Congratulations!!!🎉

Thank you so much Karen. It's so hard to know you're making the right decisions, you just have to take a leap of faith and trust all will work out! Yes, comfortable is easy... but nothing worthwhile was ever achieved while being comfortable. I know all things work for good and I know everything will work out perfectly for us both. xo Appreciate your thoughts and prayers for me and my family xo

I will do what I can... I meant to record the move out of the house and just didn't get a chance too. It's a lot packing everything up and a lot happening in the moment, it's hard to remember to set up the camera and record things. I will do my very best!!
