Ruff and buff should have its own channel😜 I would like to see evidence that Autumn isn’t now gold ! Great haul as always Claire looking forward to seeing your Xmas decs video. Have a lovely weekend xx
Great haul clare, that bag is gorgeous, my 8yr old grandaughter is in to all the designer bags🤦😂whatever happened to ' NIKI FROM BITS, BOBS & BUBBLES !! Shes just vanished in to thin air, hope autum is doing ok aswel 😁
Hi Claire you could wrap the oasis in gold tissue wrap etc as it would be very easy to push stem’s through & then any bits that weren’t covered by flowers wouldn’t stand out . Have a lovely creative weekend . Xx
No need to wrap it joanne , my sprinkle of gold will cover what little mechanics are showing . Have a super weekend yourself , and wrap up it’s going to get chilly 🥶🥰 xx
Hi Claire love your arrangement in the dough bowl and you did make me smile with the ‘ rub and buff’ , sometime ago I was was mad on gold spray at Christmas and my late husband used to say don’t stand still or you will be spayed gold .I really love your videos thank you . ❤❤ Joy xx
The large bauble,if you can get the hanger off,you could put something inside to weigh it down,so it won't roll,i was think about rice or something a bit bigger so it does fall out of holes❤❤
Hi Claire, the bag and scarf look lovely. I’m intrigued with the rub and buff, I might have to get some and have a play. I’m looking forward to whatever you and Kim have got planned for us all, and of course your Christmas decorations, you are so very creative. Christmas will soon be here, it’s getting exciting. Lots of love, and take care lovely lady ❤️ xx
Hi Lynn , The rub n nuff is something now that I will always have in my craft stash, it’s perfect for transforming things and I haven’t met a material yet that it hasn’t worked well on, it has amazing coverage but as I say I will get some different colour ways and see if I can make the flat Matt a little more something ! I’m so looking forward to getting started on the Christmas decorating , I just love twinkling lights and candles when every thing else seems grey. Hope you’re very well Lynn, thanks so much for bobbing in, take care 🥰🥰 xx
Great idea , I’ll test a leaf or two and see how it comes out. I was actually going to do it on an actual autumn leaf so I shouldn’t see why this would be different ! Great tip, thank you 🙏🥰
You have some wonderful ideas, Claire. This video is so full of interesting items. Love all your finds, especially the clock and the candle in the dough bowl. Can’t wait to see your Christmas themes once you have everything set up. Looking forward to the cooking video as well. 😊❤
Hi sweet, loved the arrangement in your dough bowl & even when you disguise (the mechanic’s)you will still be able to see the beautiful wood as it’s such a large shape. You have been busy with your rub & buff 😉although I think you have had some great ideas which turned out brilliantly. I am so envious of the glass baubles Clare I simply dare not put anything delicate out this year with one very mischievous pup🐶😂. I am taking him for a harness fitting Monday he’s finally allowed outside on all 🐾🐾 yay. Thank you for popping on & sharing all your fantastic things & I am laughing now at the thought of you & Kim together in one kitchen. 😉😊Take care hun & have a super weekend sorting through your decorations 🤗💞
Hi Andie ,I have to admit I really do like the arrangement in the dough bowl so maybe I will keep it in there after all. Aww I’m So happy to hear little Erik will soon be out in the big world taking adventures with mummy! And there’s a thought actually Andie! I’m not even sure what Autumn-Blu will make of the tree 🧐. I’m looking forward to mine and kims kitchen session altho I have to say kim will be the boss on this one as she is the regular baker so I’ll be taking her lead ! Thanks for popping in andie , take good care 🥰🥰 xx
@@PollyPutThePetalOn Autumn-Blu will take it all in her stride Clare because you will be with her every step of the way & your calming influence will ease any misgivings she may or may not have.🤗🥰
Morning Clare, love your Christmas intro. The dough bowl looks great, I can visualise it with the gold foliage , you won’t be long covering the mechanics up. Where did you get the rub and buff? never seen it before! Lovely haul and great seeing you xx
Hi Clare, I love the arrangement in the dough bowl, it adds interest to the base of the arrangement. Thank you for the reminder I need to try rub and buff on a lamp stand I have and still haven’t ordered any. I have so many different things I need to get made for Christmas I need to give myself a kick up the backside. Take care ❤
Mel, I have to kick myself everyday and still I don’t get very far. Baby steps and we will get there eventually. And the other thing is , time seems to be taking the mickey out of us all and flying by doesn’t it? I can’t believe we are already mid November!!!! 😳. Hope all is ok with you mel? Do take care ❤️❤️
@ I’m blaming the weather this year to why the year has gone so quick. With not having our usual seasons I’m finding really hard to know what part of the year we are in. I’ve sorted out everything I need to do tonight and put it on my table which means if I want to use my cricut I need to do the other makes first. I’m good, if i don’t count the usual health issues that plague me daily, like you say baby steps will get us there eventually. Hope you are well ❤️
Hi Clare great haul I love the flower arrangement in the dough bowl. But most importantly we should call you the ruff buff Queen 😄 I’ve never used it before so must have a go . Looking forward to see what’s coming up with you Clare . All the best 🙋🏻♀️💞Patricia xx.
Hi Patricia , ooh I encourage to have a go with the rub and buff , it works so well on many different materials and can transform just about anything! I’m Looking forward to trying different finishes . 🥰🥰
I have to laugh Clair about the rub and buff ideas just make sure you tell your son and dog not to stand still too long hahaha or the rub and buff will come out. Laughing aside i do love the idea though, i have never thought of doing anything like that. Thanks for sharing.
Haha Gina , you’ve given me an idea there 🤣🤣🤣. It’s a fabulous product and definitely worth having in your craft stash or tool box. Gives anew lease of life to “stuff” 🥰🥰
🌹⚘🌻🌺Hi Clare. Loved this vlog. The bag & scarf are just gorgeous. Also loved your dough bowl arrangement & the glass ornaments are absolutely beautiful. Really looking forward to your next video with Kim. Love you two together. We'll Clare l started on the decorations with. I put the fireplace garland up. Putting the tree & other things up on Sunday with the girls. And yes the elves have started to appear. Gingerbread elf arrived on Monday & Little dragon elf will be making his entrance on Thursday. Honestly Clare seeing both the girls faces when the elves appear is just beautiful. They get beyond excited. They've really helped me to get in the Xmas mood. I love Xmas, but this year with how mum is, l really wasn't feeling it, but now I'm started to look forward to it. We'll hun, take good care & l will be looking out for the video with both you & Kim. Xx🌺🌻⚘🌹
@@karenmallett6342 aww karen I’m so happy to hear that your beautiful grand girls have got you feeling a little more festive. They’re such a joy when little aren’t they because they’re just so innocent and Christmas to them is magical. 🩷🩷🩷
Hi chick what a beautiful bag I love bags .the scarf was lovely I’d love that for Christmas so would many others I think.iv never used the rub and buff but it looks brilliant.goodness help any one sits in your house they will get ruff and buffed lol.i didn’t think you put that much on iv seen others do it but I may be wrong.❤❤❤❤❤ hope your well xxx does your partner not moan when you want things from the loft mine keeps telling me the date xx❤❤❤❤
Hiya karen, How are you? I love the rub n buff , that was my first tube so I’ll learn as I go along, I’ll definitely be getting some more tho to make the finish less flat looking but having said that, I love the stuff as I think you could tell 🤣🤣 xx
Why don’t you use a touch of dark wax…or clear.or gives a slight sheen.. if you’re going to use the dark wax put clear on first then add dark.. that means the dark won’t cling too much .🙂♥️
Ooo Claire....I love your pear 🍐!! Your hubby best not stand still for too long or he'll end up rubbed and buffed 🤣!! Thank you for this great video lovely lady. Have you seen all the lovely ribbon they have on Temu?? Hope you don't mind me saying but it's a no from me regarding the florals on your dough bowl. The floral is pretty and the dough bowl is lovely, just not together... you asked what we thought, so hope I haven't offended. Big hugs and love 💕xx
You haven’t offended me Emily , not at all, I want opinions because I have been so undecided. If I were to make a new arrangement I would make it slightly smaller to show the dough bowl off, but I’ll see how it pans out after I get everything down and put out. lol at the rub and buff comment 🤣🤣everyone and everything is going for gold 🤣🤣🥰
Hi Clare, firstly, I love the intro theme to your vlogs. Another great vlog. Handbags 👜 looked fab. Favourite was those white ceramic embossed hanging Christmas Trees. Followed by the long wax wooden table candle. Woof Woof to Autumn Blue. Hope the wee girl is doing well. How did you get on with the treatment for her feet? Have you tried hiding it in peanut butter (the brand that has no palm oil). This is the only way my dog will take her meds. Take care x
Autumn is doing so well mary thank you , I actually used stinky dog shampoo and her feet are so much better, thank you 🙏. Glad you’ve enjoyed the video, take good care 🥰🥰

Hi Lynn ,
The rub n nuff is something now that I will always have in my craft stash, it’s perfect for transforming things and I haven’t met a material yet that it hasn’t worked well on, it has amazing coverage but as I say I will get some
different colour ways and see if I can make the flat Matt a little more something !
I’m so looking forward to getting started on the Christmas decorating , I just love twinkling lights and candles when every thing else seems grey.
Hope you’re very well Lynn, thanks so much for bobbing in, take care 🥰🥰 xx
You could rub and buff the leaves on the berries and use them as separate foilage
Great idea , I’ll test a leaf or two and see how it comes out. I was actually going to do it on an actual autumn leaf so I shouldn’t see why this would be different ! Great tip, thank you 🙏🥰
@ love my rub and buff, just starting my Christmas decorations tomorrow so will be using it then.
@ it’s a fabulous product for sure !
