Thank you all for understanding I need to spend some time figuring out motherhood and all that entails. My baby is so young and naturally needs constant care, so my hands are - quite literally - full for the time being ❤ I find it hard to film without showcasing baby, and involving him in videos with a very small community like patreon feels more comfortable and safe for him. I also want to make more casual style videos on a variety of topics, and it's an easier place to experiment with new things. It's just a couple hundred people that comment and chat on there, but it's a very sweet space that has gotten me through some post partum isolation. It's much easier to put effort into just one thing right now instead of stretching myself thin. I appreciate your kindness and understanding. Sending so much love, maybe I will see you again someday, but either way - keep shining your light everywhere you go⭐

Bless you, sweetie. 🙏
@@TheCottageFairy How to join the patreon and what is the fee?
Will miss you, your wisdom, philosophy and calming voice. Take care and abundant blessings. ❤
Made this 54 year old guy cry this morning. Thanks for the peace that you shared with us and instilled in me.
❤
I'm sure this peace will remain. Lovely to see men who open up about their feelings. As a woman who will turn 51 on the 22nd I say... enjoy that peace and I hope I will soon find mine too.... 😊.
Have a lovely day everyone.
Me too. 😢
59 year old says Good Bye as well
I’m a mother of two small children who finds a lot of peace in your videos. You’ve slowly taught me to slow down and enjoy my own children more intentionally - I’m glad you’re choosing to do the same. ❤
aw! That means so much, thank you for the encouragement ❤ I have been nervous about this decision but know I will not regret it.
The wonderful and unique person that you have touched so many souls Paola more than you ever know. Your soft voice, authentic personality and the wonderful nature around you is one of a kind. You will be surely missed for nothing is the same as you. Yet we are happy that you have chosen the better part. God bless on your journey. Thank you so muuuuchhhh! Still with you in prayer. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You’re a wise woman and it’s 100% worth it. You’ll never regret it. God bless you, dear sister Paola. You partner with the Lord in all you do raising this precious little gift of life and you’re never alone. 🩷🩷🩷
@@TheCottageFairy Dear Paola, you will most definitely not ever regret making this decision. I'm looking forward to supporting you in your ongoing creative endeavors. Stay free and be well and of good courage always❣
Dear Paola, your channel helped me through a difficult time after my husband passed away six years ago. I discovered your channel one day from the peaceful music and the comforting images in your videos. I went back to the beginning and watched everyone of them and was sad when I was caught up! 🙂 Thank you for giving of yourself. Let us never think that only one person can’t make a difference. Not true. You have.
You aren't alone, a friend after my husbands death 4 years ago, sent me her videos saying this woman and you are very much alike. Thank you for the calm soothing voice and videos.
That was a very kind thing that your friend did for you. I have found some people don’t know what to do to try to help you because let’s face it- the only thing that would help is if that person was still with you and that’s not possible. But small gestures like that means so much. That’s a true friend you have there.
I hope no one gives you grief about this. I for one am grateful for all the free, unsponsored videos you've made over the years on here. I understand perfectly well why now as a new stay at home mother you would want the stability of Patreon+ less deliverables each month+ an extra layer of privacy as you try to maneuver videos around a kiddo. Take care, and thank you! 🌻

@@TheCottageFairy I truly appreciate your courage and commitment to your family's well being. I would have been disappointed had you not made the decision to refocus according to this new and ever so exciting phase of life. Much love💖
If you ever decide to return, we'll be here waiting!
You have taught this grandmother to slow down, enjoy nature and make decisions and stand by them. I appreciate you and all the gentle wisdom you give us weekly. Thanks for your five years.
Nothing but respect for your decision 😊❤ Wishing you and the family all the best 🥰
Your channel was such a comfort, we’ll miss you 🥹 take care!!
HE is far more deserving of ALL of you than any of us strangers are deserving of a SMALL part of you. You made the right choice! You’ll never regret it!
Understandable. Motherhood is a full-time job.
Anyone else crying? Such a joy to have watched this young woman grow, life is beautiful.
Yes it is such a joy! And she will share that with that beautiful baby of hers!❤
Thank you for the five years you gave. You have brought me *many* moments of peace.
Thank YOU for the last five years, enchanting our heart with beauty and wisdom. We will miss you. 🙏💖
Little fairies 🧚♀️ have a habit of popping up out of the blue 💙. So until that day, blessings 🙌 my kindred spirit ❤.
We will miss you, thank you for the years of comfort & peace.. Take care...
You will truly be missed. Such beautiful videos and lessons to learn. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life. God bless you all.
Oh, my heart is broken! But life goes on. You take care of yourself and your sweet family, Cottage Fairy. Thank you for all the life lessons. Until next time. ❤️
Gonna miss you 🥹🥹
yes i am gonna miss you too❤
I trust that your previous videos will continue to be available to us. They, you and your message never get old and are perennial. God Bless you and your precious family. Thank you for blessing us.
Farewell Paola. Enjoy motherhood and take good care of your health too....❤❤
dearest fairy, thank you so much. 🤍✨
I miss you already 😢 enjoy your little family, I pray you will come back one day
You will be missed. May The Creator God touch the deepest part of your soul and light your path. You are loved by many. ❤
I will miss your videos. I have been watching them for years. Enjoy your family.
I started crying at "Goodbye, Little Fairy." I've recently made some enormous changes that have involved certain doors closing in my own life. Of course I will grieve the loss of "Oh! a new Cottage Fairy Video!" yet I understand completely the need to say goodbye. I am so grateful for the old videos to look back on, they are a continuing source of guidance as I do the great work of simplifying my life and prioritizing what is really important. Thank you for everything.
You will be truly missed….Your channel has been a source of comfort and peace for so many years….Thank you for helping me through some tough times in my life…Many blessings to you in your new journey and endeavors…🙏
I bawled like a baby watching this one. 😢 Thank you Paola for all your beautiful videos.
Me too. 💔Still crying now. 😭 And also so very very proud of Paola for making the right decision for her and her little family. 🙏😍
😢❤❤❤ best of luck to you, may the fairies continue to surround you and your family, love from Canada
Beautiful said - Agree - I will miss you !!! Your sweet fairy inspiration ❤💔- Im happy you follow your heart - Take Good Care of you all - Hug your furry kids too ❤ Will miss your cat too - ❤💔
When I found this channel I remember thinking "How is she not a mother? She would be the best mom ever", and now we're here. On the one hand I feel a little sad that we won't get videos anymore, but on the other I do agree that it is the best choice. That kid is gonna get all of you, he's lucky beyond belief. I once heard the phrase "You'll always struggle with feeling unproductive until you realize that your own joy is something that you can produce", and well, you're gonna produce a lovely little human being, I have no doubts about it.
I totally understand.. but and perhaps this is selfish, I will miss you and this lovely community that you have built. All the blessings and much happiness to you and your family. And to the community here.. blessings to you all as well. ❤
You will be missed. 😢You are a beautiful mom.❤
This channel has been an inspiration for many, including myself. This channel taught me the art of slow living, mindfulness, the beauty of nature and self acceptance. I never used to spend time just being in nature until i found this channel. Now it's a crucial part of my day. I know I'll be rewatching many of your videos. Thank you for all that you've done here and I wish you and your family the best. We are all going to miss you dearly.
Totally understandable, time is precious. Thank you for sharing your light with us all. Blessings and love ✨🤍✨
There are many roads we come by in life that change how we manage time; a new baby, relocating, a loss in the family or like myself, dealing daily with chronic illness. Thank you for the wonder, peace and beauty you have shared with us during the past five years and just enjoy the precious time you have now with your new little one. Those moments of him growing are precious and you do not want to miss any of them! Stay well and blessed!❤🍁🍄
Thank you for making this absolutely beautiful channel❤.
ah! Thank you so much 🥰
Thank you for the last four years you have shared your fairytale life. This old soul has drawn a lot of contentment from your quiet, inspiration. Be well, enjoy long happiness with your new family. Love and best wishes.
Your videos helped me through a dark time. All the best to you and you family.
😢 oh dear, I'm so sad to hear you say goodbye to us!! You are so precious and beautiful and a blessing to our souls. May the LORD GOD bless you and your family, in whatever direction life takes you.❤✨🩷
Thank you for all your wonderful videos, you will be sorely missed. "And she lived happily ever after" is the ending you deserve.

Dear Paola, thank you for the videos you blessed us with. I will miss you. I once was a stay at home mother of two and I know the value of this time. Now that I'm a grandmother I cherish this time of my life as well. Be well my dear friend enjoy the journey! ❤
Your beautiful baby is very lucky to have you for a mother. Much love to you ❤
U will be always in our hearts .thank you so much poala for the last five years
You will be missed lovely one🌺🌺🌺
I will miss you so much. Hopefully, at some point you will come back and continue your journey with us. Much love and blessings to you and your little family. ❤️🙏🏻✝️😘
The end of this chapter will give space for a new one to begin. We’ll always be here to support you if you ever decide to return. ¡Abrazos desde Puerto Rico!🙏🏼💜✨
😢😢😢 - Thank you for the many years of blessings you have bestowed upon us. And thank you for leaving us with a final message: follow your heart, find your flow, and know when to close one door to make room for another one to open.
I am so pleased to be friends with you Paola huge hugs x I'll miss you so much x
Thank you for sharing your time and talents...I, at 72, have found such beauty, joy and wisdom through your posts. After having raises two boys, I can tell you that you have wonderful, fun and happy times ahead
I applaud you for your decision. Your fairy child will only come around once. What a marvelous mama you are.
While I didn’t interact with you I have enjoyed your channel. I wish you the best life.
Thank you so much, Paola. Always Gods most beautiful love and light shine on you and all. 🌻 🙏🕊
I'm going to miss you. I shall forever make a space for this channel and community in my heart.
How wonderful. I am eighty and, let me say, you can't have it all and do it all. You made the right decision.
I'm not ashamed to say I was crying just reading the title of this video. Your gift of sharing your wisdom and insights has made me a better person. You provided food for my soul and helped me grow. You inspired me and helped me see beauty again. Your videos were the most enjoyable I ever experienced on TH-cam! The most beautiful and wholesome and whimsical and touching and chock full of wisdom.
Thank you for your bravery in sharing your growth journey with us.
You are one of the most amazing humans I have ever known to exist.
So sad to see you go. Selfishly wish you'd stay. And endlessly excited for you for your continued forward growth into new chapters!
Thank you, Paola, for EVERYTHING ❤️
Oh gosh. Sad news for us, but happy for you. I only recently discovered your channel and have been starting at the beginning. It’s so peaceful to listen to, and so thoughtful. I find myself pondering much more important things than what’s happening around me. Thank you for all you have given us, the world, and sharing your journey. I wish you love, health, peace, growth, safety, and adventure.
I hope you are able to keep your past videos on youtube. There are so many that I haven't watched yet. Thank you for starting this channel many years ago. Your videos are so calming, peaceful and beautiful. Thank you for sharing them with us. You will be missed. Wishing you and your family many blessings as you have been such a blessing to others.
Your videos gave me comfort❤ for that i’ll be forever grateful
We've been so lucky to have shared a bit of your beautiful world for the past 5 years. Life changes and makes room for new adventures, and that's how it should be. I will however, miss your channel very much!
❤❤❤ will miss your beautiful videos, but motherhood is such a gift, and I'm glad you are setting things aside to enjoy it.
Being a Mom is a full time job. Paola prayers for everything you desire to be in life. Stay peaceful. Thank you for sharing with us. I have learned from you young woman. Love you. 66 year old woman. ♥
I never mind a mama taking care of her little one as I was passed around a lot as a baby and later, too. Your videos have been a source of comfort. May the Lord bless your family. ❤
Go where you are Not...Thank you Paola, for your constant Light, Love, & Many Blessings! 💝🙏🏼
Thank you for the beautiful videos you have given us! I lived in WA for nearly a decade, so it's like going home when I see you. Wishing all the best for you and your family!!
Enjoy motherhood. Our children grow up so fast. Peace.
Thank you for all the peace you have shared over the years. Enjoy every single second of your little family!!
I have enjoyed the past five years with you Paola! Many blessings to you, Luke and Caspian as you rearrange your life and projects. May you be surrounded in the beautiful light you have shared with us over the years…♥️♥️♥️
We will all miss you greatly I’ve been watching since the beginning and I’m happy to see your doing what’s best for you and your baby I hope you continue to find magic and wisdom in the world and continue to do well and rest
Thank you for the years of peaceful moments! Your perspective of the natural world has been inspiring and drawn a poetic path to a world of enchantment. Enjoy your little one and delving into new creative ventures.
There is nothing more admirable or powerful than realising that it is time to move on and let go. Wishing you all the love on this next chapter Paola ♥️
Ouch, my heart. 🥲🫠 Thank you Paola, for all of the wisdom and inspiration over the years…for being part of our lives and for allowing us to be a part of yours. 🙏🏻🌸 Many loving blessings for your onward journey. ✨💜✨ Take care of yourself, and of little fairy boy. 😘🧚🏼
I will rewatch your videos forever, they made me appreciate all the small things. And I still have to finish the last season in your book, wich I very much enjoyed. Thank you for everything and I hope you have an amazing time with your family❤
Take care, Paola. Thank you for everything you shared in the last 5 years. 💕💕💕💕
Wishing you much happiness , peace and an abundance of love ❤️ take care!
You will be greatly missed. Your gentle ways in all that you do has blessed so many. Thank you and God bless you and your little family.
Your channel was and always will be a blessing to us all who found it.
We get used to having certain things in our lives. Things that we rely on to bring us joy and comfort. Well, I guess now I'll have to go back and rewatch the last 5 years of videos! Best of luck to you and you will be missed.
I can’t find the words to express how much your channel has meant to me. I lost my husband unexpectedly five years ago and found your channel shortly after. You’ve consistently reminded me of the beauty in every day life. Love and blessings to you and your family.
Keep being a light in your personal life. You have owed us nothing and yet given so much. Enjoy that baby!
Thank you for everything and enjoy your fairyfam & lovely valley. 🙏🏼😘
Well done for making such a good decision for yourself and your son. And thanks for continuing on Patreon, have signed up for membership to keep supporting you in your beautiful life. You are a source of peace for so many people xxx❤
Thank you for sharing your beautiful soul with the world it's been a pleasure ❤🍄🦋
I feel like a mom seeing her child off on a grand voyage and oddly, the phrase "don't forget to write" echoed through this video. We know you will be well but will welcome you back "home" again when you make it back. Blessings to you and your young family.
Oh my goodness, all those beautiful snapshots of you with the mountains and floral escapes in the background… Beyond words!!! You could easily frame some of those for you and baby. 💛💛💛🌲🌺🌼🌻
We will miss you, and you will never be forgotten. You’ve touched many lives and hearts, and mine is no exception. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 🙏
I will miss you, but I will look back on your amazing films and wise words many times. ❤
You can back anytime. When the time is right for you
I will so miss your videos. They are so peaceful.😢
Reminds me of a song by Linda Worcester, in one of the lines she sings, "the season of changes are upon me once more, God knows what the winter winds have in store"
life moves on and you have been a blessing for us having shared the journey.
Thank you
Kevin
I came across your page in 2020 and watching the situation of the world at that time was scary your videos were the silver lining during that time of my life.Thank you for capturing the beauty of nature will always cherish them. May you live a beautiful life ahead. ❤
it's strange how you can feel so connected with someone so far away. i've always watched your videos to slow down and I so appreciate that you gave us a posibility to be a part of your life, thoughts and soul. many thanks from Ukraine and wish you the best 💚💛
you have impacted so many with your gorgeous art and kind heart, take care, so much love to you and your family ❤
Babies change everything in our lives. Best wishes for your journey. We will miss your soothing videos.
How i will miss you. Your videos changed my life, i’ve discovered the art of slow living through you. So many difficult things have happened in the last five years, yet you’ve remained an unwavering companion, i have found so much comfort in your content, i don’t know how to thank you. I’ve been with you since the beginning and you have been a huge influence in my life. I understand your decision but i will hold on to the hope that one day you’ll pop back on my feed again. If that day doesn’t come, i sincerely wish you and your little family all the love and happiness in the world. Thank you for everything ❤
Thank you for sharing your life, time, and art. Watching your journey has been a gift. As a woman on the other side of motherhood, I have only one piece of advice. No one has everything figured out. We are all doing what we can with each time we are given and hoping to do good enough. Your lesson of slowing down to provide yourself with the opportunity to think deeply will serve you well in the years to come. Enjoy the journey!
Thank you for all the peaceful, beautiful moments you've shared with us, Paola! Wishing you and your family all the best. 💖
Thank you Paola (The Beautiful Cottage Fairy) for the beautiful videos you have blessed us with over these past 5 years. You will truly be missed indeed. Be Well, Be Blessed. 🧡
I've watched for years now, and found you during a time where i was hopeless. Tho i felt like a part of me was done for, inside me i still desperately crawled towards any light I saw.
When i found you, it felt cozy and loving, like coming back into a warm house when it's freezing cold outside. I binge watched your videos, always awaiting your next post. I ordered your art, which has made me happier than i thought it would- i hung it up on the wall, always admiring it. Whether you're already aware or not, your simple, calming videos have given a little hope to some. Thank you for posting for us, you will remain fondly in my heart no matter what. I wish you the best for your new little family, and hope that the future brings you more joy ❤
I am no one to judge your decision but I am going to miss these beautiful videos a lot and also your soft voice 😢...
Take care paola love you ❤❤
No matter if you don't upload regularly I will always be a subscriber ❤
I have learnt so much for you, Paola. I think of you as a dear friend, even though I live on the other side of the world and we have never met.
Thank you for all you have done for me, you kept me company and brought me joy and hope in many difficult moments. Thank you for everything, all the best to you and your lovely family ❤
I can't afford Patreon but thank you so much for all these years making beautiful videos. I too have recently had a baby and it really is a whole new chapter of life, best wishes to you and we will be here if you come back to youtube ❤
Good for you. Enjoy every moment. Children grow so quickly. Soak in the memories you make together.
