cleaning with mike's mic in the bg just feels so correct

[@cheyennebarton]

it's the only way

[@MelisaTasisto]

It makes me so happy to see prints from other artist I admire in vlogs. Like when I go to Leigh's channel and I see furrylittlepeach and when I get here and I see Leigh's art on your walls. It makes me feel we are all part of a huge worlwide artsy sisterhood.

[@WildRose22S]

Yes!

[@elizabethaman7]

“If the art is good or bad, it’s none of my business” I literally wrote that today in my sketchbook next to a lil guy I didn’t like. But then I drew a lot of other things I did like!! It’s so freeing to not have to make “good” art.

[@FawneDeRosia]

I think I would watch an entire hour of you just petting Pepper! What a lovey kitty!

[@queerlybee]

the beginning of this vlog and your editing style was so whimsical! i absolutely love it. i hope you've been well chey! thanks for spoiling us with vlogs this season of your life 🌷🌼

[@cheyennebarton]

i love you bee!!!! also i can't believe you murdered my vampire boyfriend, how dare

[@queerlybee]

@@cheyennebarton 🤭i plead the fifth !!

[@nematarot7728]

As a relatively new plant mom 🪴 I can confirm that I just get stupid and giddy everyday when I look at them, and the feeling of needing more only grows along with them 🌱 And this was a lovely vlog, it’s always good to hear from you 💛 Oh! And P.S. most houseplants are toxic to cats, so always google each plant before buying 🥲 I know 💔

[@lilobluegon7806]

Hey Cheyenne, I just want to say that watching your videos brings me a lot of comfort, a feeling of not being alone in my struggles and a feeling of that life is going to be okay and that it's going to work out. I really appriciate your videos, you don't understand how comforting they are. Love, from Sweden.

[@rolandtowen2595]

I recently adopted my own black cat and he was so interested in watching Pepper at the end of this video 💖

[@melody5975]

the quiet persona soundtrack in the background at 4:14 😍

[@brbauerlotr]

Easiest plants from a crazed plant mom: zz plant, snake plant, regular heart leaf philodendron, neon pothos, string of bananas, hoya crimson queen 😊 hope this helps! Plants to avoid as the first's I'd say are ficus(high light), calathea family(high humidity), and succulents (cause I hate them/high light😂)

[@cheyennebarton]

my biggest thing is making sure that the majority of plants I get are cat-safe!! Do you know which of these are pet safe :0

[@iklu2]

⁠Unfortunately the hoya is the only one of these that’s cat friendly. I’d recommend a spider plant though, they’re super easy to care for and definitely safe (my cat ate mine. like the whole thing😂)

[@tangledkelpp]

@@cheyennebarton spider plants, calatheas, prayer plant, chinese money plant, and most ferns are harmless!! i would say that all of them (except maybe the fern? but that's debatable haha) are pretty easy to care for :)

[@littlelavendeer]

I admire how colorful and fun your surroundings and furnishings are! I hope my future place brings me as much joy as yours brings you 💛🌸

[@lunachiang2061]

Just now i watch the video... Thank you!!! This videos make a great company, to draw, organice, walking around gathering stuff.... 💖

[@leafgirl76]

you and your space are always such an inspiration for the artist in me. I love how you surround yourself with bright beautiful colors and sweet little details. we decorate in the same way but yours is very whimsical and cute and mines a little more village witch lmaooo

[@RumEnila]

I wish you could post more often ❤️ I rewatched your videos 3x and fall and winter season are made for it

[@ranzocampo]

ahh such a cozy video to journal/sketch to < 3 thanks for always bringing positivity into my life Chey, I appreciate you from the bottom of my deepest heart.

[@varya_vaani]

decorated my journal as i watched your video ^^ i love ur videos and have been silently been watching you for uh 1-2 years? probably more. thank u for these long videos. and omg i love ur void babies sm 🥺🥺

[@fotomagrol]

Currently being sick wille I watch your vlog, to have some nice relax time and tried to feel better.

[@six.studios]

THE PLL VIDEO IN THE BACKGROUND WAS SO REAL i gave my life to that show in highschool it was actually crazy. the ending is the everloving worst. also WHAT are these morning pages everyones been talking about ?! It seems like its really helping people and I lowkey desperately need that rn lolol

[@cheyennebarton]

so "morning pages" is specifically a journaling practice that (I believe) was coined by Julia Camera in The Artist's Way, BUT it's literally just stream-of-conscious writing for 3 pages every morning shortly after you wake up! I do it in a lil composition notebook. I've found it a great way to maintain a daily journaling practice!

[@cheyennebarton]

also, hearing about the series finale for this show made me SO mad on the watchers' behalf, i can't imagine how y'all felt watching that unfold in real time

[@six.studios]

@@cheyennebarton I was so invested the show was part of my senior ap art project because I was so sad the show was ending and then when it did end I was SO disappointed 😩 Also that sounds amazing!! I need to look into that!!

[@ilawithlove748]

sending all the love i own because your presence in anywhere i can be reached makes me incredibly happy happy, thank you for being you 🤍🤍🤍

[@cherryberry-333]

I loved the video and I can't wait for the sale.

[@Summer_and_Rain]

My best advice for getting less overwhelmed when living in moving clutter, is getting items away from flat open surfaces :) so floor and table tops. After that then only tackle small sections, no konmari big pile fun, it becomes to much, to fast. :)

[@mushroomcryptid4715]

If I remember from a previous vlog, you live in the Greater Seattle area. If you ever need to get rid of any art supplies there is an Art Supply specific Thrift Store that is locally owned. They are called Seattle Recreative and it's great if you dont want to throw away perfectly good art supplies that have been used.

[@dianavcsantos]

I have been watching your videos for a while now, and they are always so nice and cozy, I love them! And as someone who has so many plants, I love that you got some cute ones yourself! They will definitely bring you happiness 😊

[@ezerstudio9195]

I want to say think you so much for making videos and sharing your time with us!

[@chantal2067]

This is a video I'll be re-watching, for sure. Looking forward to the merch sale!

[@smol_wolf]

Your space is so light and lovely, it still feels airy even when it's messy ✨

[@melodyofamaya5418]

Thank you for the inspiration / motivation to get me started on my own art studio. Its crazy how much you can get down in a 42 minute Vlog time. ♥♥♥

[@ChantelleArts]

you've decorated your space so well ❤❤

[@TheDrawnie]

I feel you on the tidying mess as I have been sorting out and packing my things for my upcoming move on Friday. I also had to sort out my late mum's things which was emotionally and physically draining as she had a lot of stuff. It's nice to know other people/artists also have a lot of stuff :D I have found during oraginising that boxes are my best friends, so I very much agree with you on that! 😊

[@gegeboucher]

Me, clapping in my hands the moment I saw you first real plant! YAY!!! Victory!!!

[@emccark5682]

Shouts out to the Mike’s Mic video playing in the background at the 14ish minute mark 😂 My boyfriend and I love his Glee and Pretty Little Liars recaps!

[@emccark5682]

AND Jenny Nicholson’s Evermore vid at 16:00?! Another one of our faves!!! Ive rewatched that like ten times.

[@cheyennebarton]

oh big same, jenny and mike are in my standard "ambient content" rotation@@emccark5682

[@mily-6211]

i love these longer videos!!

[@AbbyCole]

as you mentioned writing your morning pages I am here writing my own morning pages 🥺🤍

[@smplfylife]

Aaaah let the plant obsession begin. Happy times 🌿😊

[@blankets5782]

I really love watching art studio videos. It's like seeing a classroom but for art and for you!

[@NO-um6hc]

I love my cats so much it makes me happy to see you appreciating yours as well ❤

[@brittanyadays]

Chey, I've been following along with you for years and your vlogs always bring me sooo much joy and warm, fuzzy feelings. You inspire me to be creative and I appreciate you (and your purbabies) 🥰

[@laurab4270]

I heard of someone else who does morning pages and it sounds like such a lovely routine! I might be convinced to give it a try

[@JessyDraws]

The pepper content is just so cute and so calming 😍 she is such a cute kitty! My cat also rubbs her face on everything she can find 😅 Thank you for this video 😊

[@joeysnowy4110]

oh yayy! gonna do some much needed folding and tidying to this vlog, i always love your longform videos like these they're so comforting and lovely! thank you have a good day

[@cookie-kei]

Oh yes a nice long cozy Chey vlog to keep em company on my stressful Friday.

[@aimeecreative]

So happy you’re regularly posting on here again!!

[@kikivalentini]

babe wake up new cheyenne vlog dropped!

[@jacquelinemendez6460]

Your videos give me so much comfort. Thank you for these videos ❤

[@megolson9888]

Awww... kitty is spreading her spicy Pepper magic to us. ^__^ Thank you for sharing with us.

[@alsprout]

I was having a shit day but thank god you uploaded, your videos always cheer me up :) (they are perfect to watch under a cozy blanket with some tea and popcorn!)

[@maxonrylee]

This was so nice:3 you’re so cool.

[@Luna04567]

Picked up a few things at the sale! Very excited, cat safe plant rec is the rattlesnake plant

[@veesvoyages]

Lovely vlog! So cool seeing all your products, those notebooks are super cute!

[@isabellas3167]

congrats on plant motherhood!! I'm very excited for the sale hehe >:3

[@deoko1]

Not me springing from my seat when I caught the subtle sound of Persona 5 ost in min 6😂. I just beat Kaneshiro and omggg I’m fangirling all over Makoto 😂. Anyyyhow I’ll just continue watching the video now. Oh oh btw persona3 remake coming 2024!.

[@su_artsandcrafts]

Rewatching all of your videos just because

[@shimaaalfahad72]

I really enjoyed your videos , and i can't not to ask about your rainbow catcher , from where i can buy one 😍

[@WitNWhimsyWrites]

Soooo excited for you and this shop update! I also need to really tidey up around my creative "studio" space and home in general. Totally going to watch this again while cleaning 💜

[@fijaystudio]

but that one marble rolling around in there is dedicated to multi tasking -give and receive love, eat.

[@amberharrison317]

Good luck with the pepperomia! They don’t like to be overwatered … I have 80+ plants but cannot keep them alive so don’t be disheartened if it isn’t successful! Try a type of philodendron for that spot if it doesn’t work out. I believe in you! You might have the knack for them 😊 the second plant you got may like more sun so if it’s on the decline try to give them more light especially when they’re so far from a window, also you and I both suffer from the stress of living in a messy environment, it affects me too so much but I just dont have the motivation to do what you do! Very inspiring from someone who crumbles at the stress of cleaning said disaster just by looking at it

[@nicolelewis6262]

Persona 4 song in the background aaaah!!! hehe

[@Katiors]

The whole video has been such a treat! ❤️

[@fuzzydragons]

we had a panic over the lack of certain ADHD meds, 2 people without meds can get interesting😝 thankfully the mental health team found an alternative, life is so much better on meds for ADHD😀get some cacti for plants, pretty hard to kill once they are established

[@Isabel-2]

i love mike's mic

[@sherberries]

Your videos always put me in such ease 😊

[@ShanajayeandEric]

Congrats on becoming a plant mom! 🪴

[@finsfables]

lovely long video!! thank you chey

[@terasaur1359]

You prolly already know, but Pepper is scent marking all the things with the glands on the side of her face 🤗✨

[@cheyennebarton]

hehe i do know that it just shocks me that she does it seemingly non stop!! perfect weirdo!

[@growmakecreate]

I love your vlogs sm! Thank you!!

[@WhaleTank]

I have a few house plants. I heard, and confirmed, the under watering is better than over watering. I have had a lot of luck with this.

[@cheyennebarton]

nods nods this is what i have gathered!

[@Lostleandra]

I just finished watching Kiki’s Delivery service after having seen one of your videos, and you remind me so much of the artist friend who lives in the forest!

[@cheyennebarton]

ursula is my DREAM this means the world ToT

[@rn__rina]

yayy!! a new cheyenne video 🥳

[@sabinaf5584]

Maybe instead of recycling the prints you dont sell, you could include them as freebies in future orders..? 🤔❤ Love the organizing content btw 😍

[@lightbulbnirvana]

You are doing great! I feel motivated to straighten up with your same cheerful determination and persistence! How did you do THAT???

[@cheyennebarton]

hehehheh >:)

[@nathaliaahamilton]

what a beautiful & cozy video, thank you chey for sharing with us!!

[@CandiWare]

going back and watching older videos I've missed of yours been a long time sub on YT but don't talk very much. Thank you for making videos and keeping me company while I draw

[@KnucksBunny]

yoooo i have the same yarn winder thingy!

[@cherrybombb_]

I've been binging your videos and playing them in the background while I knit and had to stop my knitting to ask about these beautiful pin striped jeans! Where are they from?

[@alicja7852]

I loved it !

[@danielaaleman7394]

Hiiii, this video was so comforting to watch while folding my laundry and getting my desk cleaned up ❤️✨ btw, do you ship stuff internationally?

[@yellowbubblequeen]

I loves mikes Mike

[@vifa.]

❤️

[@lylilove2556]

Hello, I love your vlogs, always fresh and fun. Can you please give me the references of your machine for wind some yarn ? So thank you, have a good day

[@umebocchistudio]

i got a lot of ferns for my first plant purchases - they are all, if not most, safe for cats. but the problem is, because they are safe, my cat Haku ended up chewing most of them! rarrr. they were so pretty though.

[@umebocchistudio]

also i just want to say how much i love the feels i get whenever you post a vloggo. i am so proud at the 'thank patrons' bit. i watch your vids with my sister (she is now a fan!) and she was like, "keep supporting our chey!" and i will. you are such a provider of sunshine -- even when you're keeping it real with your struggles. because that's how life is and we just have to keep going right? i said it before on your patreon -- you were my go-to after a terrible work day when i was pregnant. (i can't wait for my 'cog in the wheel' days to be over!) now i am so happy to share that my bubs and i continue to watch your sweet vloggos. i love the older baking ones! and your podcasts, ahhh! love! sorry i am just blubbering now. love you chey. can't wait for the shop update!

[@SuperGuro]

Will there be any prints for sale? I would loooove to have a print from you on my wall!

[@DaisyzDayz]

What time will you open the shop on the sale day? I really want to be on time because I’m always late. 😺

[@cheyennebarton]

haven't landed on a time just yet! i'll post the specific time on my instagram!

[@DaisyzDayz]

@@cheyennebarton thank you 😊 🫶🏽

Are you Swedish??? Saw the dalahäst and the Swedish flag 🥰

[@shxlby62]

What printer do you use?

[@cathrinezaccaginini2626]

I am a cat Mom too

[@cathrinezaccaginini2626]

Where do you live?What city?

[@ProsperiTea]

hear me out... what if you used your bedroom as your office space, and move your bed into the "dining room" to kind of mAke a super large studio?

[@cheyennebarton]

since my dining room area is basically the first thing people see when they walk into my apartment, that would basically remove all my privacy ;; my dining room does work as my studio space! just requires some careful planning haha

[@glitterpennie7629]

I noticed you’re into Resident Evil. Have you read the book “Itchy, Tasty”? My friend wrote it! It’s an interesting read if you’re into Resident Evil.

[@graceo8648]

Can you do more focused drawings please. I miss your drawing videos

[@JuVentura]

The reason you feel like everything in your house is such a mess is cuz all the shelves are open, nothing has a door, so every little thing you own is exposed. It is very overwelming

[@Seolhwaneul]

Exactly!! Even the cube shelves are open. I would personally cover them with a cloth and I know it's better to have open shelves to see what you have, but with all of the stuff she has, it's inevitable to not want to hide them.

[@nojams732]

yeah, watching this video actually stressed me out... even with all the cleaning, nothing changed imo lol

[@Samionigaming]

I like having my things on display. It can be pretty to see utilitarian things. And if she likes the style, then it’s ok 😊

[@Lilyboxes]

As someone with adhd, closed shelving means I forget the things inside exist :') so I prefer open shelving too. Maybe Chey is the same.

[@Seolhwaneul]

@@Lilyboxesahhh that does make sense. I don’t have adhd but I can be the same 😂

[@RegienneZamora]

Hey Cheyenne, are you an INFJ or INFP? :D

[@bringthatbooty]

Did you crochet that scarf? May i ask what yarn you used? I'm obsessed 👉👈
