This. Was. Wonderful. I truly can’t wait for the next one. I especially love how you freely speak about depression and anxiety, they have been my companions for decades.
That was really lovely Ceri. I especially loved to hear you laughing about the cake decoration stories. What an extraordinary life you’ve had., so much to tell, so much accomplished. You are such a lovely and generous person. I am so glad I searched a video about how to ground paper dolls and that’s when I found you! Thank you for all you do for us. Hugs from the Netherlands.
Wow, Mr. Ceri. You're a jack-of-all-trades! My studio does the same for me (keeps me sane). I watch your videos while I craft. You bring sunshine (and joy) into my space. Thank you. "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life.." Jesus
A delight to listen to you Ceri, as always! Thank you for taking the time to share your life’s experiences, I understand how your craft room makes you feel, mine is my sanctuary where I can leave the world behind the door, and be creative, experimental or just play…😊
Dear Ceri, all I can say I thank you for the geli July challenge. I enjoy your videos. Came across your videos a little while ago and enjoy your soothing crafters voice and knowledge. (By the way, I don't have a problem with you saying 'hi guys' either.) You just do you.
Your wisdom is very helpful. "Trust the process" and "Walk away for now. Come back to it later." Have "saved me" more times than i can count. I'm looking forward to these videos. I don't know enough to even ask questions yet, but thanks to you and a few others, I'm learning and having a blast. Your stories are adorable! ❤❤❤
Oh, Ceri! The whizzing story! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have you playing in the background while I'm at my desk at work. Everyone wants to know what I'm laughing at. I love listening to you talk about all your life's adventures!
Enjoyed listening as I'm tidying my studio space. Love that you spoke about "working through the ugly" and failed creations. I firmly believe that the creative process is more important than the creative product. There's joy in the process; and growth in the process. Love your honesty and giggling tonight with your stories. Diolch yn fawr cariad 🥰
Ceri, I feel bad that people have to ask about your wages, I think it's not my business, just my opinion. You are an amazing person; you have always encouraged me and at this time in my life I needed it. Your stories are funny and very knowledgeable too. Thank you for all you have done for all of us. Enjoy your weekend.
I think people ask about earnings from TH-cam because some of the figures quoted are so extraordinary it’s hard to believe, also some ask because they wonder if it’s worth the effort of starting a channel of their own. I’m never offended as I can always choose to not newer the question. Thank you.
I love listening to you Ceri. Youve got the same problem as me with your glassess slippin down. Oh they are a pain ay? You are so natural. Thank you for just being you. You are sooo inspiring to me. My husband says " youve got your boyfriend on then". Lol. I put you on when I do my gel plating and go for it. Anyway, thank you for your reality.
I thoroughly enjoyed that Ceri, I love hearing your stories, I especially loved the bit where you talked about your safe space, I finally, for the first time since 2009 have a safe space, even though I've had internet trouble for the last few months, since I moved to our new space, and I'm finally starting to catch up, it was nice to hear you say about your safe space, it really resonated with me, thanks for the great chat time, I look forward to the next one, and all your videos, to be honest, thanks again.
I understand your view in Egypt. I too, would love to go there, studied Egypt in school. Things have changed so much in present day, that I know I'll never get to go there now. I still have lots of documentaries and books on Egypt and they serve me well. Thank you, Ceri.
Hi Ceri. I loved this video. Getting to know you is special. Loved to hear your stories, but I did not about all of your talents. Wow! Very talented you are! TFS ❤Nebraska
Good job!! I love your videos because you are so brave -- brave enough to create, to rescue, and especially, brave enough to be extremely vulnerable. I salute you. Love your channel.
Hello from Minnesota! I enjoy listening to your stories and when talking about your craft room being your safe space and how much you love it- I found my self nodding in agreement. I feel that way too. Thank you for being such a fine teacher and person. I have learned and been inspired a great deal from you.
Thank you for being so open about yourself and your creativity. Many thanks for sharing your knowledge and being an amazing instructor for us! I always share your name on my TikTok channel. ❤
I'm so glad you're going to run another challenge next year! I watched this year but didn't partake; however, I have plenty of time to do it on my own (as you've said). I'm looking forward to all your future videos, as I've been watching you for at least 4 years, I think? ❤❤❤
Love this q&a.Yes, we knew Kerry Vincent - she was tough (but fair), loved her show, it was "Save My Bakery". This video was great fun! Thank you for sharing yourself Ceri.
Ceri, I enjoyed your video very much. I think as creators we are all very similar. My husband says I should put my bed in the craft room because I'm in there so much.😊 It's my happy space. TFS❤
I enjoyed this video! Your viewers asked questions I wanted to know about but didn't know that I did. I hope that makes sense! I really enjoyed your stories. It was so interesting that I didn't even notice the time passing!
I love this video... like to learn ABOUT the creator I love to watch. I can hardly wait for the next Q&A... also the length of the video doesn't matter... we can start and stop the video according to our timetable/schedule! Thanks so much!❤
Every third project: that is intriguing because I recently heard about the rule of thirds in creating. One-third of what you make, you'll love; one-third, you'll hate; and one-third will just be okay.
Raw videos helps us see all the do's and don'ts but take it in positive way because sometimes as a beginner at least when I started, I was in a thought process that it HAD to be perfect and exactly as the person in the video (the not raw video) and after I started seeing the raw videos my stress went away, ohhhh okayy I can do that, started to say in my brain and my creativity when out of the box. So It's most appreciated, raw videos. Thank you. P.s. I now do raw videos 😊
I am behind. I understand about the cake. We have a small fair here and one fair goer thought I shouldn't enter my quilts. I machine quilt so I did it all myself and get rosette ribbons. Best of show. If I can't enter then I feel like I cannot grow more as a quilter, start to finish. They have no professional class, plus I am not professional. So I understand.
Oh, I so enjoyed this!! I got a great laugh when you told about your glasses and the cake story. I laughed out loud at that. You're the best story teller and it's not just your accent. lol. QUESTION: Have you ever been to Canada?
I’ve been to Vancouver, Victoria’s, Montreal, Quebec and the Canadian side of Niagara, beautiful country, lovely people but I couldn’t afford to live in Canada.
@@CeriGriffiths Canada is huge for sure. I'm originally from northern Quebec and now reside in Ontario. Niagara Falls is amazing! Happy you got to see it.
They are pieces of acrylic some call them plexiglass, if you’re in the states wine hardware store sell it and cut it as window replacement. Here in the UK I just ordered it on eBay. Just be careful as it can have sharp edges and corners if cut.
I understand your thought on not wanting to spoil what your thoughts of Egypt is. I think we romanticize locations, and when we get to go there, our hearts are broken because they become modernized and tourist traps.
Ok you had me rolling with not recognizing Ann Margret hilarious, and your wizzing around ya I can see the misunderstanding on that word, and these days many ppl use their middle finger to point out things even. New word to use could be whipping instead of wizzing that hilarious, and after living in England for 2 yrs I found many words the Brit’s use that us in the USA would never use, like 2 things with cigarettes, one never call them fags and the butt end in the UK it’s a dog end, here dog end is dog remains. lol there are a few more that I found interesting, but the at was many moons ago in the UK (1980-82) Tfs your fun life. ❤😊
Great video Ceri❤ you have so many interesting things to share. Too bad you don’t want to go to Egypt, you can come to visit me and we could go together,, they are neighbours we are not in war with😂.
People always ask why I dont make creating isn't a career. The music artist Adam Lambert song said it best something he enjoyed became a pay check and to me thats sad.

Thank you so much
This. Was. Wonderful. I truly can’t wait for the next one. I especially love how you freely speak about depression and anxiety, they have been my companions for decades.
They’re part of life and I think no one should be afraid to talk about them.

Tfs Ceri! Have you ever made a journal/scrapbook of all your cake adventures?
Thank you that’s very generous of you I’ll add that to the fund for future video supplies. I’ve not made a journal about my cakes………yet

Hi, Ceri. Thank you for sharing.
Loved the Ann Miller story!!
Hello from Minnesota! I enjoy listening to your stories and when talking about your craft room being your safe space and how much you love it- I found my self nodding in agreement. I feel that way too. Thank you for being such a fine teacher and person. I have learned and been inspired a great deal from you.

This was great, Ceri. So fascinating. Thank you for sharing 😊
I love watching all the very old classic movies. Yes, Ann Miller is a good dancer.

Great video Ceri, thank you so much for sharing your life experiences with us😊

Very interesting chat. I thoroughly enjoyed your stories and answers😊❤
I love music and will sing at the top of my lungs... "singing like nobody is listening".
I'm so glad you're going to run another challenge next year! I watched this year but didn't partake; however, I have plenty of time to do it on my own (as you've said). I'm looking forward to all your future videos, as I've been watching you for at least 4 years, I think? ❤❤❤
Fabulous and thank you Elizabeth
Love this q&a.Yes, we knew Kerry Vincent - she was tough (but fair), loved her show, it was "Save My Bakery". This video was great fun! Thank you for sharing yourself Ceri.
Kerry was a dear friend for many years and I so miss our conversations and friendship,
Ceri, I enjoyed your video very much.
I think as creators we are all very similar.
My husband says I should put my bed in the craft room because I'm in there so much.😊
It's my happy space.
TFS❤
I enjoyed this video! Your viewers asked questions I wanted to know about but didn't know that I did. I hope that makes sense! I really enjoyed your stories. It was so interesting that I didn't even notice the time passing!
I deal with depression and anxiety too. A safe haven is a necessity to maintain my sanity.
I really enjoy when you talk about your life. Happy that you will be doing it oncea month. ❤❤
More to come
I love this video... like to learn ABOUT the creator I love to watch. I can hardly wait for the next Q&A... also the length of the video doesn't matter... we can start and stop the video according to our timetable/schedule! Thanks so much!❤
Awesome! Thank you

Wonderful, thank you
@@CeriGriffiths 😁 You are welcome and creative.
Your truth is refreshing
Your experiences are something of movies like the island where you were born.
I am behind. I understand about the cake. We have a small fair here and one fair goer thought I shouldn't enter my quilts. I machine quilt so I did it all myself and get rosette ribbons. Best of show. If I can't enter then I feel like I cannot grow more as a quilter, start to finish. They have no professional class, plus I am not professional. So I understand.

Thank you I’ll make a note of that.

Watching replay ceri
I have watched those cake shows from Tulsa on tv . I remember seeing you on there, judging the competitions.
Kim that truly feels like another lifetime now.

Hello ceri, I’ve been enjoying yo video, specially the gelli printing. I wanted to know where to find the based you use to put the gelli plates on.
They are pieces of acrylic some call them plexiglass, if you’re in the states wine hardware store sell it and cut it as window replacement. Here in the UK I just ordered it on eBay. Just be careful as it can have sharp edges and corners if cut.
I understand your thought on not wanting to spoil what your thoughts of Egypt is. I think we romanticize locations, and when we get to go there, our hearts are broken because they become modernized and tourist traps.
Brave and brutal👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
ANN MILLER?
