Hi Rachel, you remind me so much of the definition of ingenuity. The quality of cleverness, original, invention, and resourcefulness. Always enjoy your video's.

[@shannabauer]

That is a perfect description of Rachel. Good job on nailing it.

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

That is such a sweet compliment - thank you. :)

[@IndieAnnieJones1]

Love your channel! I like the flowers tin. Unfortunately I don’t have anything galvanized in my house. You do a great job with creating your projects. Have a very Happy New Year!

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Thank you so much! Happy New Year to you as well!!

[@annmiller7977]

Love both of your flips! Your plants look so beautiful,and so healthy! I live in the Midwest so it’s cold here,the plants make me anxious for spring! Have a great week and see you Tuesday❣️

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Thank you!! And it is cold here, too - at least it usually is . . . it's been unseasonably warm this winter so far - normally we have a blanket of snow this time of year, but this year we haven't gotten hardly any at all. I love having the plants in here - it helps with the spring fever a bit, haha.

[@patriciabuxton6806]

They are both cute but the box is my favorite. I admire you for using up what you already have…

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Thank you! 😊

[@rosiemorales7783]

So hard to choose a favorite. Lol. I love them both. Love all the details in the frame🌻🌻🌻🦋🦋🦋🙏

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

I couldn't choose either, lol!! Glad you liked them!! Thank you!! :)

Thank you! :)

[@LauraleeDeros]

Love your project they are really pretty. Coeur d’Alene is my old stomping grounds. I used to live there when I was a teenager.. Also, Sandpoint and Dover. My dad always called it God‘s country. We loved it there. Lived in Walla Walla, Washington for a little while.. 0:30

[@shannabauer]

Howdy from Yakima!

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

I have lived in this area my entire life - I love it here. :) I'm glad you liked my projects - thank you so much!! :)

[@LauraleeDeros]

I worked at the Sour Dough restaurant there in Coeur.d’Alene . Do you remember that restaurant? Goodness I was 17 and now I’m 67.

[@shannabauer]

@@LauraleeDeros No, I am sorry I don't. I hear you on age though. When we used to go there as a family, I was in my teens and now am 60. I lived in Spokane in my 20s and would run over to Coeur d'Alene quite often for various things. I am so old, I remember Coeur d'Alene before the big hotels and golf course. hehe

[@LauraleeDeros]

@@shannabauer Me too lol .

[@lesliezagrobelny4820]

Live the transfers! The box is lovely! 🤗

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Thank you! 😊

[@joananderson7976]

I love the frame and all the embellishments! You should do more of that, you are so good at it!

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

I love doing that kind of stuff! Most of the time I don't simply because it takes so much time, lol.

[@lanacabus2231]

everything is so pretty. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year!!

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Thank you! You too!

[@pennybill9237]

Very pretty.

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Thank you! 😊

[@shannabauer]

Hey Rachel, let me be the first to say I am in awe of your time management! The picture turned out so dang sweet. It is precious! Just so you know, background can be a tough word to spit out (excuse the horrible phrase). It's ok though, we all speak Rachel. LOL I honestly do that quite often, but that will be our little secret. Oh WOW, the flower tin, loved how that turned out. Your choice of transfers was spot on for that project. What lady wouldn't fall head over heels for it? Wonderful. Have a great week-end gal. See ya on Tuesday. 👋

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Oh please don't be in awe of my time management, lol - I'm a mess! :) I really try, but there are days when I still feel so completely overwhelmed (today has been one of those days! haha!!). And there are times when just coming up with words as I'm trying to do my voiceovers seems impossible . . . lolol. I'm glad you liked the projects - they were both really fun to do. Thanks again for your support. :)

[@teresabrowning5580]

is that a Princess House cake stand in the background...sure looks like it :-))

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

Good eye! Yes it is!! :)

[@maryzefo3801]

I love both projects....I am having trouble finding transfers on the website...I absolutely love the transfers you used today ❤

[@theeclecticcottagespokane]

I'm glad you liked them! :) For the transfers, click "Shop Online" on the main menu Click ReDesign with Prima Click Transfers And you should see the ones that I have in stock! :) I hope that helps! :)

[@maryzefo3801]

[@lyndawise678]

I love those little tables behind you. The applicated flowers are wonderful.
