What's on my Desk? - Craft with Me - 5 Item Swap Continuation!

[@thetapequeen5489]

Congrats on 55K subbies, Gayle. I love the accordion journal. I've watched with great interest as you've worked on it as I haven't made one yet. Your "What's on my Desk?" videos are some of my favorites.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you so much! ❤️

[@catherinelittle2118]

Thank you for the love and attention you give to your viewers. That is one of the many reasons that you are close to fifty-five thousand subscribers. Gayle you are much admired and respected. Thank you for continuing to spread kindness, inspiration and joy. Hugs.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you, Catherine! You too spread kindness. Thank you for your always kind and supportive comments! ❤️

[@richardeidemiller6739]

I'm thoroughly convinced you either do not sleep ever, or else craft in your sleep. I couldn't accomplish a quarter of all that in a year much less it all being so beautiful. The fabric flips especially. Congratulations on the subscribers.Vicki

I have some fabric sample books and wasn't sure how to use the ones with the paper backing. What a fun video today with the journals. I watched Ceri with what you sent. He did a fabulous job and he is right, your are the best teacher! Have a blessed day!

I am in Georgia and we did manage to get a dusting of snow last week which is unusual here but we have only been here for over two years now. Originally hubby and I are from Wisconsin. Hubby is in the army and it’s been 8 years since we have seen snow. So your video was such a nice memory to us of our home state. Thank you!

[@beverlynielsen6714]

Good morning Gayle. I had watched Cori do the belly band but this morning I crafted along with you. After many starts and stops on the video I completed one belly band. I was grateful for your mistake with the brad because I would have done the same thing..lol. Your journals are looking great. Looking forward to scrappy Saturday tomorrow! Take care and be safe. Hugs.

[@CoriDahmen]

That Cori Dahmen is trouble with a capital T! Darn thing, doesn’t even share complete directions (I use packing tape on the back of brads and string, to keep them in place and prevent tags and journaling cards from getting caught). Have I ever mentioned how fabulously awesome you are? I didn’t get the chance to watch you this morning, so all this very long day I looked forward to joining you this evening. Thank you for being such a bright spot in so many lives, mine included. Love you, GA.

Love you, Cori! Trouble with a capital T…sounds like a good time to me….oh my, look out Anaconda! 😂❤️

Good Afternoon Gayle, I have to say I admire your conviction sticking with your goal to “play” this year. You continue to inspire me with all the different things you created thus far. It’s been fun following you on this 2022 play journey!!!!!

[@donadeam2313]

That was so fun. The two journals are so different and each is beautiful. I love your challenge cover. If I hadn’t watch you expand to fit the cover base, I wouldn’t be able to imagine it any other size. It’s a wonderful cover.

Hi Gayle...Everything looks absolutely amazing..Do you ever gather up napkins that you might have extras of to sell in your Etsy shop? I love the movie Red Tails,lots of great actors in it.. We just had an ice storm this week and a little bit of snow on top of it..I can handle the snow but I hate the ice storms..Our last one in 2009 left my mom without power for over a week and many others longer than that...I prayed very hard and we didn't loose our power at all this time...I knew God was in control!! Enjoy your snow and stay warm and safe!! Lots of love and hugs from Kentucky💙

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yes, every now and again I post napkin packs in my Etsy. 👍. You stay safe and warm too! ❤️

I am glad to know that others have loose ends everywhere also. Sometimes my tending to loose ends of projects becomes overwhelming. Beautiful results of everything. The accordion journal will be a perfect giveaway.

[@vanessarussell7997]

Good morning Gayle. The accordion journal is turning out terrific. I watch Ceri's video and loved it. The art work was excellent. Listening to his story was amazing. I love the idea of making the journal cover to be for a art journal to keep for yourself. You have a beautiful day.

[@lindakitts4304]

That’s beautiful.

[@donnakinmn1683]

Your fabric clusters are so pretty. You have such a variety of fabrics and lace. I really like the idea of the accordion journal. I made one as an art journal and this reminds me how much I like that style. Yours is so nice and grungy.

This was a great video. I love all three journals, and really appreciated the tip about how to strengthen a paper journal cover. You weren't the only one to shed a few tears during Ceri's video. He is such an interesting man, and, as are you, so generous with stories that make it seem like friends talking. I hope you get to meet some day. Loved your snow video.
