I just have a video idea could you make painting hacks and tips like that??

[@liesbethartlife]

I’m painting on larger canvas, large card stock etc … after all those years I’m finally liking my own work. I went from illustrative, to abstract, to expressionism and now I’m in a surrealistic fase :) Love to combine charcoal, Matt acrylic paints together.

[@liesbethartlife]

Oh and I turned my attic into a playroom for my tiger. Just a lot of cardboard, a lot of boxes and way to many pompoms :)

[@AliG-do4jj]

Loved this video, favourite was the tile box/draw. Great idea ❤❤❤

One of my fav paper crafts is: paper wigs! They're super easy and creative

Never heard of that one, I might have to look into it! 💜

Here’s my art activity idea: Make a miniature house/store What I do in my free time is grab a foam board from a local craft store (they can in a variety of colours) and measure them into a room. Glue them together (elements liquid works) and you can make things from bakeries, to bedrooms, to even a art studio. It’s super fun. It’s more of a craft then art but I still love it. I made a bakery with some counter, I also added a patio to the side of it with some outdoor table and chairs. I also made a mini oven and cupcakes. By the way, I love your channel. It gives me so much motivation, especially when I am bored. :)

[@liesbethartlife]

That’s why we love watching your channel ! After all those years you just stayed real and yourself 😍 you look amazing ! I love your ideas, that paper tiles idea is so cool. Which I knew that when I was younger and was being the architect for my Barbie’s

[@MeganWeller]

Thank you so much! I was never as into Barbies, my mom collected them and I thought it was lame that she never let me take them out of the box 😅

I love how you give other options Like for the first art project you said no need to be good at drawing u can use stickers printed pictures etc Which encourage people to do the project and don’t give up just cause they don’t know how to draw I hope u got the point , but i just find it so sweet and wanted to tell u

[@ipow1035]

Giiiirrrl you're BEAUTIFUL!!! I am truly speaking the truth

[@MeganWeller]

Aw thank you 🥺💜

[@ellie4324]

Hey Megan!, here’s a craft I think you should definitely try! 1. Print out/draw butterflies 2. Colour the butterflies 3. Cut the butterflies out 4. Fold the butterflies in half so the wings are touching 5.un fold the butterflies 6. Cut a piece of string and tape it to the middle of the butterflies 7. Hang them from your ceiling I recommend hanging then around a light, I just think it makes them look really pretty!

[@avocadocompany]

Hey! Love the crafts! I have an idea: making watercolors from eyeshadow! Basically, you add a part of baking soda, a part of vinegar (I actually don’t know if they’re the right measure they just worked for me) let it bubble and then you add you eyeshadow (cracked up). Mix rlly well, but like RLLY RLLY well, put it in the previous container, let it dry and your done! Hope you try it!

[@MeganWeller]

That’s a cool idea, I might have to try that! I definitely have some expired eyeshadow I should get rid of, this would be perfect! 💜

[@GoofyGooberMars]

The first craft is definitely something I'll try since it looks cool and easy to make

[@MeganWeller]

Let me know how it turns out! It’s definitely super easy, the only “hard” part was the coloring 😅💜

A craft I have made recently is beads! I don't know if you have already done this but, you put perler beads on a tin with tin foil. then you put them in the toaster oven or the oven and put at 400° for 5 minutes. Take them out and take the beads off when they are ready. (white and yellow don't work)

[@makeasplash8149]

A couple projects I’ve made lately are some crochet stuffed peeps for spring/ Easter (they are SO cute ✨) and a bag out of sunburst granny squares in the colors of sunflowers. Your ideas are always so creative! Thanks!💜🌻 Edit: your cutout photo shoot pictures were so gorgeous and unique!!! I’ll have to try it out on my Instagram sometime☀️

[@MeganWeller]

Those sound adorable! Are they the chick shaped peeps or the bunny ones? The granny squares sound cool too, I wish I had more time to crochet! (I started some heart shaped granny squares for a tote bag but I only made 6, I need 18 😅) Thank you! Definitely let me know if you try it, I bet they’ll look amazing! 💜

[@urmom7974]

Omg I was also in love with American girl dolls and I had this huge house for them. Whenever my mom came home I would tell her to check the mailbox to see if their and any magazines. And I would cut out pictures in the magazines and pretend they were food and toys

[@MeganWeller]

Aw that’s awesome! Yeah, we didn’t have a ton of “official” AG stuff since it was so expensive, so I always made my own. My favorite thing I made was a little radio, it was a jello box with a High School Musical keychain taped on the inside so when you pressed the button it actually played music 😅

[@nnyeom]

For another paper crafts idea you can make paper mushrooms. you get toilet paper and soak it in water and shape the stem and top of the mushroom. then wait for it to dry and glut them together. Then you can paint them however you want.

[@MeganWeller]

That’s a cute idea, I feel like I saw that somewhere at some point.

[@celiajcallaway._]

IDEA!! So, basically get a stick and carve off all the bark until it’s just the wooden ish part. Carve the top to where it’s kinda pointy like a pencil. Then, get a hot glue gun and a crayon and melt the crayon onto the tip of the wooden thing and boom! DIY pencil crayon! idk if this made sense, but it’s a really fun project to try. Also, decorating the top is fun. I made a mushroom for mine out of paper.

[@MeganWeller]

That’s super creative! I feel like it might not last long though, but it’s a cool idea!

[@celiajcallaway._]

@@MeganWeller yeah they really don’t last too long, but it’s still a fun thing to do!

[@nicolalederer9517]

Hi Megan, you said it yourself, the internet is not real - and we are ALWAYS to strict with ourselves (do guys do that, too?): you are most certainly NOT ugly (even with no makeup and glasses) and not really average looking either. You are very attractive and (as someone with hair as straight as it comes) I love your hair! I am fifty now (*shriek*) but still have these moments and still know how it felt in my teens and twenties: the zit on one‘s own nose is ALWAYS so much bigger and more noticeable that anyone else‘s. At the end of the day we all need to get over it and be happy with who we are (some days that works better and some days,… oh well). I do love your videos, your humour and your creativity, always look forward to your latest ones! All the best from Germany, Nicola

[@MeganWeller]

Aw thank you, I appreciate it! I don’t think I worded that quite right, I think I was basically trying to say that life’s too short to be so hard on yourself. That’s so true isn’t it, we’re our own worst critics. At least in my experience it’s gotten better as I’ve gotten older (ten years ago I never would have believed it 😅) Thank you so much, I hope you have a great week! 💜

Can't ignore how creative you are and how you are coming up with always new ideas. I Case of you're confidence and look on camera, I couldn't help but recognize that you always sit maybe a bit scrunched up, I bet it would make a difference if you would put a little effort in your posture. Something like shoulders back, head up, etc. Don't want to say this in a mean way, but I think, this would really help.

Soma hasn't peed on the couch, but she does occasionally pee over the litter box, so it makes a mess all over the floor - but that's a lot easier to deal with than a couch!
