Much cuter as a shorter dress. Turned out well.
Little refresh 😍 thanks Elaine ♥️
Love the dress shorter. It looks super cute!
Girl! What I wouldn't give to have your energy!
God bless you Catherine!
Catherine, it seems you aren't afraid of anything. You're always start your projects full of courage and you finish successfully. Your positivity is sth I really adore. It's really infectuous. Thank you for this....❤
Always gotta try ♥️ thanks for watching Martina xx
I love the dress. It no longer looks frumpy.
"Matronly", is how I'd describe the longer gowns. 😊 I so admire that you do the alterations yourself! ❤
Girl, you changed the whole feel of the dress by shortening the length. Very very pretty on! Well done.
Hello, Catherine! Your little floral dress is adorable! You might have a "granny" inside wanting to come out.... but she's chic!!! Your skills know no bounds. I always am encouraged and inspired by you.
What a beautiful dress! Yes shorter!❤❤❤
🙋♀️🙌 a clean house means a clear mind to me.
Yes! So true x
After a few years as a subscriber, I'm still trying to figure out why it is so relaxing to watch you work so hard (not even counting the filming and editing). You do usually inspire me to get busy . 😄
Awwwww thank for sticking with me x
Definitely ,Two hands up! I totally get overwhelmed trying to stay on top of all the house and gardens. Girl, i’m right there with you getting behind on all the jobs that need to get done.
Honestly, it feels like a full time job trying to keep up, but hey, a little dust is okay
Good call on shortening the dress. Looks wonderfully dainty now! 😊❤👍
Frumpy is the word you were looking for and you certainly took the frump out when you shortened your dress, it looks great on you 😊
I am a Grammy and not a bit offended. It looks lovely shortened.
Hello from South Africa. Happy to see this week’s video! Cheeky thumbs up before watching the video 😋
Got a big smile over the Mrs. Bucket comments! The dress looks great after you hemmed it. Love the new wallpaper choice.
A reference to Keeping Up Appearances! Oh I loved that show.
The word you was looking for is frumpy but now after taking it up it looks beautiful on you x
That dish rack is adorable!!! Your sweet home is always so sparkly clean, it shows that you take pride in your home!!!🇨🇦
Such a beautiful floral dress!! I too have always loved flowers - my family & friends love to tease over the years!!
You always amaze me how quickly you can alter something !!
It looks much better shortened! ❤
Go Catherine. You inspire in very dark times. Australia calling!!!
Aww that means so much to me Kerry ♥️ thanks for that xx
Love the term fiddley fabric - the perfect description
What a wonderfull vedio a little bit of this a little bit of that and everything was great fun, encourag ing , motivational , educational thank you so much have a fun blessed rest of the week ❤.
I love the dress on you and the length is perfect. I am a 'granny' and I wouldn't have worn that dress the original length!!! hehe. You do what you want to do. Love your house and garden and all the activities you do. Love from Australia.
Oh yes! A good fresh cleN just makes everything right! The dress, I thought before I loved it I couldn't picture it looking nicer, then you shortened it. Being someone of average height, 5'4" to 5'5" , I didn't get it, how it. But, oh yes, after alteration and the model I do get it. Being such a tiny young lady it is definitely better shorter. Looks so lovely on you. Love the fabric too. Very pretty.Have to say I am a little jealous of all your pretty dresses. I need to get out of the jeans and get more fem. Been sort of tomboyish all my life. Love the wardrobe little Catherine. You gave me inspiration to get some spring cleaning done. Finally spring came early in Northern lower Michigan, USA. 3 days , snow melted everything budding out low 80 degrees F. Oh so nice. Happy Spring Catherine. Ty for sharing this Lovely video. You inspire us all.
We Debi that’s so sweet thanks so much! ♥️ hope you’ve a lovely week xx
Wow lovely cushion cover but that dress is absolutely gorgeous your a very clever young lady x
That dress really looked lovely on you
I cracked up with Mrs. Bouquet “Bucket”. Love that show❤️. Beautiful print. Dress is beautiful. Great job.
OMG a gem of a show, I always laugh x
Catherine, I feel exactly the same way about cleaning. Most days I say I’m not gonna lay on my deathbed worrying that I didn’t clean enough. But then sometimes you just gotta get it clean for your mental health. Thank you, as always for the inspiration! 💗💗💗
OMG! Yet another laugh. "The chair" We all have the chair! So funny.
Great update on the dress. Clever woman!
The dress looked matronly before you hemmed it... looks cute now.🤩
What an amazingly creative person you are. Thanks so much for sharing your creations and projects. So enjoyable and inspiring.
You are so kind, thank you x
Yes. this shorter version is so you and the longer one was so "motherly" or matronly. You are young and it looks awesome now.
Enjoyed. I love the orange dress.
When I saw that radio of yours I knew I had to get one and now I wake up to Kisstory on the daily, love it
Ohhhh you did wonders for the fit & style of that dress for a person your age and height! Great job!
Dress is stunning
It is beautiful on you and you are very blessed To be able to pull off and suit The floral dresses and look useful most of us cannot
Perfect ❤ the dress shorter.
Love the dress. Looks great.
Dress looks so much better shorter! ❤️❤️❤️ the Hyacinth comment! Great tv show
The only thing that could have made the dress more modern would have been the addition of pockets lol! Good work as always
Thank you for sharing. At first I thought the dress was nice longer..a nice flow to it . . But you worked your magic and it does look better shorter .it looks lovely on you . 🇬🇧👍🏻💛🤍
Much better, it looks lovely.
The new wallpaper is lovely, and Mrs. Bucket WISHES she was Catherine!
That’s the attitude!! Thanks for that 😂♥️
You look really pretty in your shorter dress - good job❣️
I also am very drawn to the floral prints. My mother tells me not to wear them because they make me look older. But, I still love them. 😊
Oh no! Flowers prints can be fabulous ♥️
The floral dress is adorable and I agree it looks more youthful shortened.
I agree little bit old lady, definitely love the print though
Love the wallpaper.
Hello. Being from Texas and 5ft 9 I love taking the sleeves of everything. But I agree on making it shorter.
Love the new wallpaper ❤❤
The dresses are adorable and i agree the need to be shorter. Love them.
Aaaah Catherine, I love this dress. It looks beautiful on you, such pretty print. Good call on shortening it. I wonder whether the off cut will be enough to make a frufru skirt for your little niece 😊
Oooh that would be a great idea!! Always a use for scrap fabric 😍😍 thanks for stopping by xx
aww great idea matching skirt for the little one♡
Thank you for sharing that quick alteration. It was very helpful in a couple of ways. 😊
Aww I’m so glad to hear that Jean ♥️ thanks for stopping by xx
♥️ Love the new look, dress, well done sweet, always enjoy watching xx
I laughed out loud at the Hyacinth comment. Looks fabulous on you.
You are a breath of fresh air. I always find myself smiling and chuckling. I agree:. I'm 83 and also want to look chic, not grannyish
Yesss Anne 🙌😍 everyone deserves to feel chic
What a difference the length of a dress makes! Very cute short dress.
Completely changed the look!!
❤❤❤❤
Really loved wallpaper it would be very pretty and elegant in your living room
Love your new wallpaper
Loved the new wallpaper🌷
You did a fantastic job on the dress. Love the reference to Mrs. Bucket. Most people in the US wouldn’t know who that is but it’s one of mine and my son’s favorites old shows.
Its a great show isn't it, one of my faves x
Shorter it will look very cute. The floral looks lovely on you
It would wonderful with cute flat type sandals. But shorter would great too
Oohh yes very cute 😍
You're brave to cut on your dresses yourself...I saw you do that with that lovely crimson dress that you wore to the awards show. I'm to chicken to do it myself.
My home is clean enough to be healthy and messy enough to be comfortable, i.e., not a museum. Your home is lovely!
Thank you for keeping it relatable 1000% struggle to balance work, life and the home. I cant stand the mess but after a long day who wants to be spending their free time cleaning everything 😂 love the idea of a checklist too! Thank you for the motivation and the tulips look amazing! I have dahlias from tubers in pots for the first time hoping they come up even half as a nice as yours did in the beds last year! Keep up the good work xx
You’ll have some beautiful fabric to make something out of! Love it!😍
That’s the plan Angie ♥️😍 could never waste fabric like that!
Darling dress! ❤😊
❤love the dress
As I watched further along, I liked the dress much better shortened. Enjoy your time with the gang!❤
Oh the dress is definitely better shorter and looks fabulous on you...great job...and yes a good clean ....keep the mind clean too.. I love the new wallpaper...yes that definitely you...pretty...oh thank you for sharing... everything is great ND also being the short term ...I too only do my light shades ... once a year 😮....I better get the fluffy duster out...!!! Xx 👍👍👍👍
Dress is beautiful. Love watching you clean so therapeutic someone else doing it lol
It’s satisfying watching someone clean isn’t it 😂♥️ thanks for stopping by Julie xx
Thank you for your inspiration
Thanks for making me realize I am a spring cleaning sloth. Oh well I watched you and in my mind I see my house clean. Chores done thanks catherine😅
Oh Loriann it’s so hard to find the motivation it definitely isn’t just you!!
I’ve been cleaning since I was 12 years old. And I’m definitely a clean freak. I’m now 74. And the wonderful feeling of accomplishment and having a sanitized home never gets old. One of life’s best feelings. Your dress looked much more flattering on you shortened. Suits your age better. Sending hugs from Pennsylvania. 😊😊🌷☀️🌈
Yes it did look Mrs bouquet (bucket) but on it looks nice on, I do agree with a take up to below knee. Pretty coloured florals. ❤
I had my doubts about the dress when you were holding it up (and I love floral patterns). But when you put it on, it looked so cute! And you hemmed it to the perfect length.
AW thank you xxx
Love the wallpaper sample! It will go with the walls so well! I can't wait to see it on the wall!! It's you with the leaves and the birds!!
Lol, I love watching that show and I have an aunt that is Hyacinth to a T and when my poor uncle was living he was the embodiment of Richard Bucket, lol!!!! I love your videos!!!!
Hands up!
A clothes donkey. I’ve never heard of that. I’m still laughing about it. I might start calling mine that too. Loved this week video 👍🏻 (a cheeky thumbs up)
Frumpy is the word you were searching for. Much better shorter 😊
Your growing up...change is good...move the energy..😊
Dress is beautiful
The material is gorgeous in the dresses as you say, Catherine, and you did a great job shortening the first dress - really pretty. Wow Catherine, you have so much energy. You got through so much in your kitchen 👏 Lovely video, thanks for sharing 👍
Oh yes….shorter then it’s perfect for you!!!!!!❤❤❤
Nice job making the dress work for you!
Perfection. Knew that you would not throw the leftover piece away... seriously, really pretty. Think we all know when something feels right. Hope you enjoy the event when you wear it.
Never throw away the scraps!! Always something to be made ♥️♥️
Love you dress x
you did that up super cute. love it.
Thanks for sharing, love watching you. From across the pond.
Absolutely love watching your videos…. All the way from Tasmania! 🥰. I especially love watching the sewing ones, but you have inspired me to clean today (even though I have a head cold), so thank you, and please keep the videos coming!! 😘👍
Aw feel better soon, lots of rest when your under the weather, the cleaning can wait x
@@DaintyDiaries thank you! 🥰 You are very sweet and quite correct… the cleaning can wait 😆👍. Forgot to say, I love the dress you shortened, so pretty 😍 xo
I hear you. Spring & Christmas lol ;) Love the dresses. I have the same challenge (short). Miss Oasis too. Thanks for the motivation. Looking forward to tomorrow's video:)
Aww that dress is gorge, suits you better with the knee length. The struggle is real for us shorties 😂
Beautiful dress on you❤️❤️
Oh it is so much better! Beautiful dress and print, but fits you so nicely now.
And what a genius idea to measure with your fingernail...after all, it's always with you.
Such a good idea!! Makes it so much easier ♥️
Looking forward to the new wallpaper going up. I love the living room as is so I can't imagine it can be approved. But if anyone can, it's you!
❤ much love to you!
