Tim Holtz 2024 Holiday Hoopla

[@artemisceleste]

I know this is your business, but what comes through during your Lives and Hooplas is your joy in creating and your delight in sharing it with us. Thank you so much Tim and Mario for the gift of your time, your talents and your enthusiasm.

[@marysharvey]

I couldn’t agree more. Tim and Mario are the “real” deal, their respect for one another, and the joy they create for all of us is a treasure. Years ago when Tim’s first book came out, I didn’t receive the right amount of books I had ordered, so I called the number I was given, and lo and behold Mario answered the phone! I almost dropped my phone! He couldn’t have been nice or more gracious. I had my other book the next day in the mail. Totally unnecessary for them to have express mailed it to me, but, that’s just the way they do business. I will forever be a fan of Tim and Mario, and all of the products he produces.

[@chrisgibson8409]

Yep....... I am of the same opinion!!! I love the "Tim Holtz" products.... and I think it's because of how Tim (and Mario) have shown us 'how' to use them.... what you can do by thinking outside the square!!! And each and every time I watch another video it is like I have met up with an old friend who is giving me loads of inspiration. Thank you so much Tim and Mario!! You rock!!! And I will continue to buy the Tim Holtz products because they are worth it!!!! Keep up the good work guys!!

We know a lot of sweat equity goes into all things creative. We know in struggling economies where product production costs are on the rise and consumer purchases are on the decline that smaller companies are the ones that feel the brunt of those changes financially. It is an honor as a consumer to be able to shop these companies bearing in mind that they are providing livelihoods for others. The Hooplas provide a platform bringing all things to a sum total where we get to see all parts work together…the designers, the products, the manufactures, the thought processes, the cost analysis…all of it. Thanks for that! Your gift is being used at its best!

I am filled with gratitude! Thank you for all the inspiration! New, unexpected, goodies, altered Santa mugs, altered $2.50 ornaments... As Tim and Mario would say.... "come on"!

I thank you for this beautiful Saturday Hoopla! I am so inspired by the boxes, the Santa mugs, the rosettes, the lantern ornaments, the gingerbread houses, glitter trees, etc. Etc. Thank you, thank you, thank you for creating a super fun event!

[@paulienvandenbosch3857]

Fantastic Holiday Hoopla! I love all the projects you made. And again, (after all these years,) I still learn from you. I had to order some of your new stamps cause I'm a sucker for snowmen 🙃 what can you do about it? Just enjoy life itself, and enjoy the little things around you. For me that is, playing with inks and stamps and stencils and pastes and.... Thank you, Tim and Mario, for everything you do, for our industry and crafting community. I very much appreciate you!

[@PoconoPam]

Totally enjoyed the Hoopla! Especially Amanada's of Pear Blossom Press lights!

[@zanepodniece4830]

Loved this! Just said the other day where on earth is Tim and Mario I need my 5 hour live 😂❤ fabulous and full of inspiration as always! I really struggle with perfectionism so it's hard sometimes to just go and do things for fear of messing up, but my mantra has to be it is what it and we don't throw a fit 😂 may have to print this! Huge haul done 🎉 also the new spritz is gorgeous

[@debclark1069]

Tim, I Love your "Hooplas"!!! So much fun!!! Thanks for sharing tips on how to create Awesome things! I plan on having fun making stuff. Thanks for the encouragement!!!

[@reikodavis4685]

This was fantastic! I watched while making Christmas cards. Thank you for sharing your talent!

[@vicbillsu]

So much fun information here! Thanks for doing such a long hoopla with so many ideas. I’m going to try them all! Looked forward to watching the replay while I’m home sick! Almost cured. Holiday Joy! I just ordered a texture paste tube. So fun!

[@jackiestanley5656]

Thanks Tim & Mario…joy & inspiration…it makes me very happy…💚

[@karenblanck7726]

Great hoopla! I picked up those little lanterns about 3 weeks ago and put several in my cart but then ultimately returned them to the shelf. Now I’m kicking myself! Love the little lantern project! I love the tip about using candle ring greenery too since it’s often hard to find the smaller scale greenery! Thanks for sharing all your fun ideas!

[@sueataylor8754]

That was awesome. I paused a few times. Just finished. Congrats to the winners

[@mariarosales7964]

I have watched the replay and I have to say a great big thanks to Tim Holtz. This hoopla was FANTASTIC. I learned so much and am now super inspired to get to Hobby Lobby and start Christmas crafting. Thank you Mario for being such a great example of a supportive partner. Have a very Merry Christmas 🎄

[@mymixedmediaobsession]

[@sonnels57]

Amazing live! Thank you Tim and Mario ❤

[@michelel3372]

Thank you so much Tim and Mario! This was great fun, so many ideas and I love the enthusiasm you have in sharing. I got so excited about holiday making that I had to pause the video to go get the small tree that I put in my craft room for the holiday season. I really enjoyed everything you did! The Santa mug with the whipped cream was an awesome idea. My favorite holiday decorations are sparkly candy and gingerbread! 😀 I love the glitter wooden trees too! Everything was great!! Thanks again!! ❤🎄

[@GoogleBot-lf7xv]

Love it. My head is spinning with ideas. Thanks Tim. 😊

[@kimcarlisle1510]

Tim and Mario. I have been in such a funk trying to get creative for the Holidays. As per usual your Hoopla has cured me. Can’t wait to make!!

Loved watching the Hoopla. Had to pause a few times and just finished. Thank you Tim and Mario!

[@Debbie3doodles]

Hi Tim. I'm watching your Hoopla video and just got to the part about the lantern and light. I just wanted to let you know that museum putty ( found at Home Depot) is great for holding things down and removing them at will. It claims the museums actually use them, hence the name. Anyways I love the stuff. Perhaps this will help you in the future. Just wanted to share that with you and by the way I love the one long Hoopla video. Thank you for all your inspiration and the maker's inspiration.

[@KathyLuvsPaper]

“I’ll circle back to that because it’s not fully cooked”. I’m rolling! 😂

[@kmatto_kmatto]

What a wonderful Hoopla. So many fabulous ideas. I quite enjoy these. They become such great resources in the future. Thank you, Tim and Mario! Also, congratulations to all the winners.

[@paulabarin6403]

Great Hoopla! I’ve watched it twice. I really struggled with making rosettes. Thanks for showing an easy way to make them. ❤

[@MaryPrasadArt]

Hoping for an Autumn/Halloween with a larger Raven... and a New Years one with fireworks, perhaps? A fireworks embossing folder? And some fun dies o that. 😊 Thanks so much, Tim, for al the inspiration and a super great Holiday Hoopla. 😊 I so much enjoy these live events. 😊 Happy Holidays to you and Mario. 😊

I've only watched a bit & will come back again. Thanks, Tim and Mario. I've just ordered a new Ranger heat tool. I use it all the time & I can't do without it either. My old one doesn't sound good, but I've used it for years❤

[@auntylou174]

Just started watching. Now I’ve got an ear worm: Super Trouper by ABBA. But the words are Super Hoopla. 😂 Thanks for the inspiration, in anticipation. ❤

[@stefflefke7257]

I’m equally obsessed with the cool old muffin tray as all the fun trinkets inside. I looked on Etsy and eBay last year trying to find something similar… I’m going to need to go antique hunting. Meanwhile - back on Simon getting all the things ❤. Thanks for all the time you spent inspiring us!

[@pamallenheringer9677]

When I see an idea that I love, I take a quick screenshot of the item Tim is creating. Afterward, I get the pic in my photos and am reminded of the technique! After the hoopla, I’m going to start creating from my pic reminders!

Watching the replay. Thanks so much for all the ideas, Tim & Mario!

[@craftylittlerthings]

I love it all, I make miniatures and mini sceans so it all works. I’ve just become a pensioner (age 66 ugh) I only have distress ink pads, so I think I’ll be long gone by the time I could get these things, so I’m hoping wherever my soul goes it has a huge. Craft room full of the stuff lol. So…..I make cards etc too…. What can I afford next lol Keep them coming anyway cause I love to see them all. Ps. I love the lights and and and, oh you know what I’m saying hehe Happy holidays/christmas Hugs to you both xxxAnnxxx

[@susieburris2052]

I am Susie B, but there could be another. If it’s me, thank you so much! This is Christmas comes early for me! I just ordered from Simon Says today, but I’m sure I could find more!🤣

[@deboraheastwood7490]

Now I need the holster for my heat gun. Please design that product!!!!

[@ChrisAndCats]

Lumberjack Plaid is *THE* red. Wait. Spray shaking machine? Where? When? I need one! The candle one must have an air switch in it. What a fantastic idea! I see them on a large scale at work for pumps/wet hands, but this is so creative!!

[@jennip8585]

This whole video is incredible. I wish that Hobby Lobby wasn't closed today!! Also, where did you find those candle rings?! Definitely not Michael's. There wasn't anything there for less than $44 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@timholtz]

Thanks! These are the things from Hobby Lobby: Lanterns, Candle Rings/Mini Wreaths, Berries, Wooden Trees, Peppermint Cardstock + Straws.

[@jennip8585]

​@@timholtzthank you so much!! I'll head over there today!!

[@KnottyCeltic]

Does anyone remember what size of those broccoli rubber bands Tim uses to seal jars with?

[@timholtz]

#82 Wide Rubber Band

[@meldoesnails7682]

🎉🌲⭐ Yeeees to the HOOPLA!!!

[@riekgeluk]

Hoi Tim en Mario.

[@lindaslack-c1q]

I always have random pieces of leftover Christmas wrapping paper...wouldn't that make cute little paper bags.

[@dianaboone7491]

Just recently found your lives (hooplas) I have a few of the distress pads some oxide sprays will need to get some of the ink spray & wax at some point
