What's Inside my Treasure Chest?

[@susanbellport8838]

I am a 67 yr old Northern California woman who is crafty, but I actually never even heard of these journals until i came across you! Now I am addicted to your videos! I run a prayer group in my church. I think I will make prayer journals where the ladies can find places to write their prayer requests and answers to prayers. Fun treats inside including Christian charms, even gift cards to here or there and just tons of things you have inspired in me. Bible study journals where they can write things they have studied or snippets that God has told them. These can be Christmas gifts or whatever! I love the voices you come up with. No other person’s videos even come close to yours! Thank you, Natasha! God bless! 💕,Sue. P.S. I just have to close with this because I care about you…Jesus is coming soon! For real. I pray that you and your family believe. Hope in this dark world🙏🙏😉❤️🌮

Oh Natasa, never apologize for an outburst or using voices. They are a part of what makes you amazing and fun to watch. Please keep these 15 minute projects coming. Love and hugs.

Sounds like a good title for your next book. The 15 minute projects!! It can be amazing with just 15 minutes what you can make . Thanks Again

[@CraftedByChristyShop]

Your voices, and sense of humor, ALWAYS crack me up! DON'T stop! I know, I'm a grown, even old (lol) woman, and your story times, and voices make me feel like a kid again. I think it reminds me of the imagination I used to have as a child. My mom used to say, if she didn't know better, sounded like there were 10 people in my room, because I would play teacher, and all the kids,,lol,,,voices included! NEVER CHANGE! ☺♥ And, yes, I felt inspired!

Yes I agree! I am inspired.A box of treasures in a plastic box is still beautiful and dreamy even without the treasure box! Do not apologize for the accents and voices, you are so entertaining! 😂 I almost want to dub you queen of ruffles ... you make anything beautiful with a little piece of fabric or paper! Maawvelous darling, simply mawvelous! ( said as spelt, with an accent and a queen's uppity voice) YOU KNOW IT!!!😊

I love the tag with the fabric pockets. I would love to receive the treasure chest. I need to do some mass make sessions making pockets, envelopes, and flipping things. Love the 15 minute stuck timer.

[@Narbyful]

LOL. So, I started watching this/listening while handling some of my supplies to do some fun paper art creations. And there was 9 comments...and I refreshed. Now there are 77 comments. I finished watching before commenting. Yes, I'd love to receive such a treasure chest. I am beginning my treasure book/journaling journey largely because I got started checking out your videos. I bought some supplies, but I had a bunch, too. I've always loved paper - old greeting cards are a fav. Anyway, it's amazing what can be done in 15 minutes, be it cleaning, crafting, reading - we just need to pay attention and stop multi-tasking. Concentrate and love the thing we are doing NOW. Be present. :) This was a truly delightful video! Thank you!

[@debbiebreen6276]

[@MsHamsti]

I love love love this short sessions especially because its my daily practise. I have an illness with this I only can sit in my bed 5 to 15 minutes a day. The other time I had to lay in darkness. It saved my life to try to use these few minutes to create something. So I started with folding papers laying in my bed. Then I have cut something, later I glued something down. Now I have 1 Junk Journal - made in 6 month by 5 to 15 minutes a day. And it makes me sooo happy to see, I'm able to create something beautiful. Many many thanks for your videos and especially this 15 minutes sessions. Love from Germany, Anja

[@mariehamilton3707]

You actually CAN create something in 15 minutes, that being motivation, inspiration and creativity. I personally am crafting more now that I’ve started the 15 session. This is exercise for my brain if nothing else. Sometimes comments can come across as criticism, I’m hoping this is not the case. Wonderful video Natasha. Thank you , and as I say…..more, more, more!! 💖

[@deb.m.7458]

Natasa, you are absolutely amazing. The name ‘Junk’ Journal doesn’t name what you do. Beautiful random stuff that we waste and throw away. Very uplifting watching you create.

[@BobbieHarwell]

I just love this video. I’d rather spend fifteen minutes creating than spend it complaining. I’ve been doing your fifteen minutes and it had really inspired me. One time I made a whole little journal with just stuff on my table to show my granddaughter how it works. We laughed and had a blast and she loved the little journal. And now she has a memory of our fun time. Thanks Natasa. You are the treasure maker Queen❣️👍

[@PatWalden]

I took you to mean that if you work for 15 minutes, then you might be inspired to continue creating. I thought the point was to try to stimulate our mojo when we're in a rut. It's been a very helpful suggestion. ❤❤❤

[@jwiki1]

I am glad you did this video. I sometimes think that sitting down for 15 min to be creative isn’t worth it. Often I find myself an hour or two later with a great start on a large project or a finished small project though. I love your funny voices. Don’t apologize for your personality. I love it! 💕💕

[@peggyharwell3674]

Ohhhh how perfect. Many fans of yours are praising you for creating the 15 min videos. I, too, are in agreement. Great job, and continue on with your enthusiasm and language lessons.

[@Patricia.R.]

What a fun video! Get not one, but two 15 min sessions and a whole treasure box of TREASURE! GOLDEN. You are so creative. Whoever says you can’t get any thing done in 15 mins, hasn’t even begun to live! Who are those people? Paraphrasing Arnold Bennett: a man desires to journey, sets out and dies along the way, he has lived a better life than the one who desires to journey and never leaves home. 🌼He should have walked away for about 15 mins! 🌼❤ have a great week everybody!

[@bknight7698]

Honestly even your scraps...leftovers... trash are all sooo pretty! That was fun going through your forgotten treasures!👍❤️

[@caroltanzi29]

Natasha: the 15 minute craft time is a good thing to remember. However, crafting for me is a pleasure and I’m not rushing. This is the way I relax after working. My quiet time. Everyone is different and their needs are different. I’m a planner and love ideas to perk. For me that’s half the enjoyment of creating. However, with all that said, for crafters who are short on time, this is a good idea. No rules, no regulations. Oh, it’s good to know where those different voices come from. I honestly thought you had theater background. Carol from California

[@kellyjean4981]

When I was a kid, my mom brought home a box of stationary items that were going to be thrown away at her office… random papers, paper clips and so on. I thought it was the greatest thing ever! I love your treasure chest full of beautiful creations. Very inspiring

[@TubeYouLena]

Your daughter is the happiest kid on the planet - with that talented multi-language/voice spoken mom. 😊 I limit myself not for the reason to get creative but to actually fit some creativity into my busy life so that I always have guaranteed minutes of silly fun. Not easy, I always want to stay more with my silliness but it is much better now, I learned how to stop myself confidently on time, tidy up and walk away with a smile. And the best part for me - to continue what started or repeat with variations. The fun is in variations, the major thinking is not needed anymore (that one was needed only at the start).

[@JBYaya3]

Love and appreciate any kind of inspiration! We all have days when inspiration is hard to come by on our own. However, some of my most satisfying creations often happen as a result of sitting at my desk mindlessly putting together a project.

[@Gothlite-i1l]

I have learned so much from this just-go-for-it series. I don't have too many scraps but I do keep every bit of 'junk' I can and now before I start another project, I'm going to see what I can make out of all the trash in The Laboratory (aka craftroom). You have taught me that things don't need to be perfect, or even finished, to be valuable and used. (And I'm so glad you do voices, too. My cats have different voices and talk to me and each other all the time. My 30-year-old daughter tells me, "You do realize you are talking to yourself", and then proceeds to speak in the same cat voices I do.)

[@luticia]

I like your creativity and your personality that shows off. Your mind is full of ideas. Wow. Sometimes I see something that reminds me on your crafts or I think to myself that you would love to use it to create something beautiful from it.“
