Hi Andrea, Thank you for this beautiful blog, it’s my favorite. however…. the videos are not a fav. I am an experienced crafter and they just take up too much time. With written instruction I can go to where I want to be right away. It has to be a really interesting project for me to even click on a video- several were almost 10 mins each which is a real time suck for me. I had to keep clicking ahead- because watching someone paint a vase is soooooo boring. I know you don’t make the videos- you just share, but wanted to let you know I wont be looking at too many of the videos in the future. I enjoy what you post, and thank-you for all of your effort.
Hi Shay, how are you. I wanted to thank you for your input, I really do appreciate it. I want this blog to be a place where you want to go and find out what is happening out there and narrow things down to what you would like to create. Also… just a place to come to to be inspired and enjoy! So I apologize. I thought adding the videos added many more projects that people have not seen yet but every time I do it I give it a second thought! I know that time is of the essence for all of us and I apologize. I will try to keep the videos to a small number if any 🙂 It seems that Pottery Barn Inspired Thrift Makeovers are mostly videos lol. So… don’t go anywhere 🙂 I will curtail them in the future. Once again, thank you for your honest input… Noted and Logged! You take care now and have an amazing day! Hugs! TTYS! BTW… I appreciate you!
