SPRING DECORATING 🌸 / Cleaning my Family Room and decorating for spring

[@ChristianAnneSmith]

The cake pops were awesome. Tickled my funny bone and I bet your girls are learning to find the fun in life through your example. You have such a great sense of humor

[@ashleyspeakman920]

You should use frosting to bind your cakepops together.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

I did use the icing on the top, is that what you mean?

[@ashleyspeakman920]

@jodidunnmymessylife1847 no, that was melting chocolate. You use frosting, in the tub, in the cake crumbles, like glue to hold it together.

[@Tyramoone]

@@jodidunnmymessylife1847Frosting as an ingredient into the cooked cake bowl mix is what most baking companies use no need to use vanilla and powdered sugar if you use frosting!

[@diannewilson5470]

I giggled so much this morning watching you make cake pops.I just love listening to you chuckle during your videos Thanks again for another happy day

[@ardiscovert7847]

Frosting helps bind them together. I just made a bunch for the baby shower for the new grandbaby!

[@kaydublin5164]

Jodi, I was cracking up at your cake pops, but I give you credit. I’m sure your girls loved them.😊

[@karencoin5933]

I love your humor! You are so adorable every time you get a new plant. I have a bunch of plants in my sun room & they are growing like crazy! 😊 I can't wait for spring!! ❤

[@Raquelita700]

I have made so many cake pops, and even when you are prepared and have everything they can still be a little challenging. A little icing or cream cheese work amazing to bind and you can slowly and gently melt your candy melts if they get hard 💓👏🏽 but how sweet that you made these for the girls and thank you for sharing with us 🤭😁💓👏🏽

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you ❤️

[@josephdaly2015]

I was splitting my sides laughing at the cake pops. Once they tasted good that’s all that matters. Thanks for sharing that story. The shelves look gorgeous. Clarke looks very comfortable on the couch. Omg ye got so much snow. Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 🙇‍♀️👏💪👍🙏💐🐈‍⬛🦮

[@VaraVannerSimpleLiving]

When I've seen people make the cake pops that way, and not using a cake pop mold, they usually use frosting to bind the mushed up cake together.

[@JulieS1961]

I love your videos!! I have been doing a Jodi marathon since i subscribed just recently! I love your energy and enthusiasm! So much motivation and encouragement you give in every video! 🩷

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you so much Julie 🤗

[@joannwagner4940]

I enjoyed watching the cake pops recipe. I bought a cake pop maker years ago and it was a disaster as well. I guess that's why they are so expensive at the store. I donated my machine after my second fail😂

[@lindakleiner5734]

Made with love “the secret ingredient” always taste great ❤

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Yes ❤️❤️❤️

[@wandafoltz6659]

Thanks for being "real". When we made cake pops for a wedding, we made the cake balls one day and then put the icing on the next day. It worked out well.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thanks for sharing Wanda ❤️

[@patgraceffa9984]

I am still laughing at your cake pop moment! I have had so many of those fun fails. Thanks for keeping it real! Fun video@

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Pat it was a disaster 😂 they sure were delicious though ❤️

[@cantocant2346]

Shelves are so pretty! Sparkling clean and happy Spring colors!

[@jld1636]

I love the layout of your home and the coziness of the rooms, especially your family room. The decor is really nice.😊

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@gillhannabuss4096]

Well it’s took me a couple of weeks to catch up on all your videos. Absolutely brilliant, loved them all. You have given me a lot of thoughts about how to tackle my house. One small job at a time . ❤

[@sharonnorvell3397]

Wow....your family room looks great. You are doing an awesome job with the decorating!

[@Islandash]

Frosting.. you can add frosting to help the cake pop bind.

[@judenebaer9997]

Great video you made me laugh with the pops .I been there lol thanks for sharing 😂 spring come on !! Your living room is very beautiful

[@leashy1204]

The living room looks beautiful!! You made some really great choices and I love the sentimental stuff mixed with the newer items. I didn't actually mind those dusty rose pillow cases...maybe the girls could use them in their rooms? I love the new plant!! Omg!! The purle on the back is gorgeous!! Those leaves are so big and had such a stunning leaf patterns!! I want to photograph it and paint it so badly!!!!🌿💖🌿💖🌿💖🌿💖🌿💖🌿💖🌿💖🌿🌿💖

[@helenatkinson4730]

Thanks for being real! I'm sure if I tried to make cake pops they wouldn't turn out any better. Your family room looks so cheerful and fresh now. I think the snow outside is even more reason to want to get your spring decor out.

[@vickymcmahon8121]

Love the family pics. Especially Grandmother.. she looks like she was fun.😂❤..

[@MarshaCaughill]

❤❤❤today is Saturday and I just did my spring decorations I don't put out much just enough for me.and my puppies 😂😊😊😊. Thanks again Judy for all of your time to help so many people ❤❤❤. Have a wonderful day and weekend

[@hannahkennedy2259]

I love spring!!🪻🐛 I love the snow too 😅.

[@terryruiz7417]

Decorating turned out lovely, Jodi. I'm sure everyone will enjoy it.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Terry ❤️

[@barbfoote5224]

Hello Jodi - live the living room with all the spring touches! We too have been having crazy weather - 6” of snow Friday and tomorrow it is supposed to be 70!!! CRAZY - but I do like spring like weather. I am not a summer girl at all - hate, hate hot weather. I telll all the young girls I work with, “one day you will understand why age and heat don’t mix well!” LOL have a great week and hope you receive some really nice weather as well.

[@haii2521]

Your decor turned out beautiful! Just the right amount in my opinion 😊 and your new plant is gorgeous!! 😍 So sweet of you to try something new for your girls 🥰 have a great rest of the week!! Cannot wait for warmer weather as well! 😅

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️ Even though they looked terrible 😂 my girls were so excited

[@sharonstriluk8680]

Hi Jodi. It’s cold here too. Had light snow last week. I decorate for mostly all the holidays. Soon as Xmas comes down valentines deco goes up. Now I have St. Patrick’s stuff up. Easter next. Not a crazy amount like my Christmas deco but just enough. Lol We are taking a little week vacation before we start back to work for the season.

[@sarahhart7260]

Jodi! I love how you decorated the shelves! ❤

[@fayedewitt4183]

Love the pink and the blues❤😊

[@GoingGreenMom]

Love the pictures you added to the bookcases!

[@maryrichardson6205]

Hi Jodi, watching you make cake pops and laughing. One of my former coworkers used to make these and they were so good and looked so cute I thought I would try them. Mine looked much worse than yours and I swore a lot.😃 My son only uses distilled water on his plants. He gets as excited as you about plants. I loved the way the bookcases came out, you definitely have great vision. You are responsible for my many floral arrangements. Weather in Denver has been crazy too. Thank you for this video.😘

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Mary that’s hilarious 😂😂😂 They seem so easy to make until you try it 🤣 Awe I love that your son gets excited about plants. They are just so fun ❤️

[@sonyasupposedly]

Loving the touches of pink with the greens and blues! It's awesome to see how far you've come in discovering your home decor style. That Calathea is beautiful too!

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Sonya 🤗

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

Hey Jodi! I have spring fever too but out in my yard not my house. I felt like you did in the fall with all the leaves. We raked up 15 garbage barrels of leaves and still going. 💜

[@mollypostema6866]

You are such a great decorator for just starting a couple years ago. A natural talent you have. ❤

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Molly 🤗🤗

[@mjs.2000]

Love this change out. Looks beautiful.

[@barbstormo7030]

We are having amazing temps here. No snow! I love your spring decor. I decluttered a lot of my decorations because I was really tired of them. I need to get some new things but, I haven't found anything I want to spend money on! I am sure I will soon. The plant is beautiful. That would be something I would love to have but, my cats won't leave them alone so it's best not to temp them! LOL!!! Have a great week!

[@elsiealba-limas8408]

Jodi love the way your shelves turned out.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Elsie 🤗

[@jenniferevans9597]

Hi Jodi, Your living room decor turned out so nice!!!! I've had spring fever too. I've done a bit of declutter and some decorating.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Angelica 🤗 Oh yay you are getting ready for spring 🌸

Wowzers Cowzers! What a beautiful plant -- both of them, but the new one, wow! I might have to get a lemon lime this spring, they are lovely. 2.99 at Kroger...dang, girl!

Isn’t it cute Carolyn 🥰

[@sondrasix1668]

Jodi it’s all beautiful. You made my night with the cake pops. The same thing happened to me making them 💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thanks for sharing that Sondra ❤️ it looked so easy on the video I watched 😂

[@MarthaC6001]

Beautiful job Jodi!!!

[@wlhampton]

I prefer to do Oreo cookie balls. No baking required! They are so good with the mint or peanut butter Oreos!

[@kimberlylamitie2869]

Love the shelves!

[@kleeblatt_kanal3359]

Very nice spring decor, thank you for your beatiful Video🌺😊🍀

[@shirleyrichardson3504]

Awesome decorating Jodi. The girls will always remember when mom made cake pops. I live in the south, no snow here. I wish.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Shirley 🤗🤗 I’d gladly give you all the snow 😂

[@juliaouzts5781]

Great video :) Love the plants :)

[@MaryWade-i8f]

I make my cake as directed. Let cool, crumble cake. take half a container of frosting & mix well. Form into balls, freeze then dip…

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@sorokabarr8825]

What a fabulous job you have made of your spring decor. You have a fabulous eye for design. Love it❤ The cake pop scenes were so funny I'm glad they tasted good❤❤❤

[@MrsKellyintheMiddle]

I ❤ your spring decor!!! You've inspired me to go looking for sentimental pics that fit the spring vibe!

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Katie they really are the best pieces ❤️

[@AmyStotts]

I used to make cake pops for the boyscout bake sales and i used icing to bind them together. Oreo cheesecake balls are a fun little treat to make with cream cheese as a binder with crushed oreos.

[@kimberlylamitie2869]

😂😂. That is sooo me while cooking. 😂😂

[@shwycoff]

It’s the thought that counts. I have the same problem with the looks with my food but always taste great.

[@melaniehutchinson5306]

The candy sticks are often available at craft stores or anywhere you can get cake decorating supplies.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Yes ❤️ I had time for the grocery store only that day so bamboo skewers it was 😂

[@kellygaudet2281]

Looks great Jodi❤

[@sereiarl]

You are so funny jody😂😂😂❤❤❤ love you

[@suzzettewelch1571]

Early spring cleaning nice.

[@nancybrower8608]

Hello Jodi. I'm with you, I'm ready for spring as well. Sick of winter. What an awesome job on the decorations. I need to start as well The cake pops looked good to me. I laughed right along with you. You did well. Thanks for inviting us into your home. Blessings to you and your family❤

[@SharaLee60]

Hi Jodi, the cake pops look yummy! Your room decor looks so fresh & beautiful! I can't believe you still have snow! We are kind of cold. It did get up over 50 today. So that's good! I don't do the seasonal decor of the seasons anymore except Christmas! Love your new plant. Get a shamrock, they're pretty hard to kill! I love them. They close up at night! They look so pretty & then they open up when light shines on them! I love your laughter, you make me feel good & to look forward to things to do. Right now, I've been getting 2 Birthday gifts done. Made each girl a cosmetic bag, a small coin purse & each a little junk journals. One for my older daughter she's 51yrs & the other one my niece will be 52yrs just 4mos to the day from my oldest Son! The younger daughter will be 50yrs in Oct. & my younger boy will be 47yrs in June. So there all almost in their 50's! Makes me feel old! Ha, Ha! Thanks for sharing! ♥️☺️🫂🐾🦉🍄🧶🧵🪡🖌🎨🖼📚🍄

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

Maybe with the cake pops it’s how you make the cake that helps binds it together? Meaning a super moist cake might help? I seen people on KZbin add an extra egg to a cake mix and butter instead of oil etc. Now I want to try to make cake pops!

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

I’ve watched so many videos since making them 😂 I think I might have over baked it. My oven tends to run on the hotter side and every video said if you over bake it won’t bind correctly. I’m gonna try again with baking less time ❤️ They were really good though. Let me know if you try them 😊

[@zerocasualteas]

Your house is looking so darn cute, Jodi! ❤ I love that you are adding more pinks into your decor!

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you ❤️

[@judithwoomer7747]

Very nice, I love the chicken!❤❤🦋🦋❤❤🦋🦋

[@tracylanglois6327]

Mix the cake with some frosting next time and then roll into a ball. Makes them stay together. Makes me want to eat a cake pop!!!!

[@angelalee8368]

I love snow men and snowflakes so I did that this year

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Sounds beautiful ❤️

[@sharonmakowsky172]

Hi, Jodi! Your room turned out so cute! Love what you did to it. It looks so welcoming! We had a couple of inches of snow within three hours but by the time it stopped it was melting. Now we have no snow! Michigan weather! Got to love it! Warmer weather coming our way!💜🥰👍

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Sharon isn’t it crazy. This last one stuck around here for almost a week

[@margiebeeb2836]

That was fun😂I’ve had recipes turn out that way, whenever I try a new one these days I’m getting spring fever too but haven’t started decorating yet, have to “spring cleaning “ first I’m ordering those flowers!!😊❤

[@lisaann6267]

Our weather in coastal California is rain,& more rain.high of 60 but i will get out rest of decor, i spent morning doing the voters ballot. I did finish bakers rack. 🙏💗🐶🐈☕☕

You made me laugh so hard with those cake pops your laugh and humor had me laughing so hard. Please be safe and God bless.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Dolores they were way more work than I thought they would be 😂

[@maryprentice7207]

Laughing so much at the cake pops! Definitely my version of Pinterest worthy😂😂😂

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

🤣🤣🤣

[@maryscott_50]

You are right. White surfaces look lots cleaner than dark ones. I wish all my furniture was white because the dust doesn't show on it.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

It really doesn’t ❤️

[@catherinelain1370]

Your bookshelves look great! I do not change out decor for the different seasons. I buy the seasonal napkins from the Dollar Tree and a candle from Walmart as a nod to the seasons. ❤

[@marypardy1408]

Hi Jodie, you made my day with those cake pops lol but I bet they tasted wonderful

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Mary they weren’t pretty but sure were delicious 😂

[@PamelaMacEllven]

Your bookshelves look awesome!!

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you ❤️

[@debbiejohnson1796]

Looks good.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thanks Debbie 🤗

[@linayoung4595]

I always like your decorations, no difference this time! I thought the pink pillows were cute, but I'm glad you recognized that you don't like it right away. I probably would have decided to sleep on it and then felt like it was too late to return after forgetting about them for days etc. And I love the cake pops! That was a really cute idea, and I'm sure the girls were super happy about it. I think I remember you saying, when you first decluttered, that you would mainly keep books that matter to you. Do you have a memory associating with the dictionaries on the shelf, or are those just in case/decor? I have sentimental lexicons and dictionaries that I can't part with lol

[@Myeverydaywifelife]

Happy Tuesday Jodi! 💜

[@katatomito]

Hello!! Hello!! , I love how you decorated your bookshelves ❤

The trick with cake pops is to add icing to the cake and then mold

[@hanna7644]

Love the photos, everyone will enjoy them. Looks great, ready for spring!

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you Hanna 🤗

[@angelescorral4189]

Hi Jodi, your family room looks amazing. Great job! It’s unfortunate that the pink of the pillows looked differently in person, because in the video they looked very pretty. Have a great week.

[@jodidunnmymessylife1847]

Thank you ❤️❤️ Yes I was so bummed! They looked so dingy in person

[@TidyToysTv]

Your house is lovely

[@tessytyberg7545]

I think I’ll try to make this recipe with my granddaughter

Happy Tuesday!

Oh my Lanta did I need a Jodi video today.. Hubs and I have come down with some sort of crazy sickness and I needed some brightness today...Thank you.. ❤
