Your videos are so much fun, I don’t have any idea why you don’t have over 100 K in your subscriber column. You got everything else, brains, humor, cats, sarcasm it’s one of the biggest mysteries on the planet right now and I wish that we could get to the bottom of it because you deserve those hundred thousand subscribers
Agreed totally! Such a fun hidden little gem on the internet but some gems need to be SHOWCASED!!! She’s just so authentically herself and that’s what makes me love her most! Such an enjoyable place to be 💖
😭 Wow, make my day. That is so sweet to hear. TBH, the algorithm seems to hate me. I don’t know who I made mad. But I’m so grateful for everyone who’s here in our lil club.
Every baby photo of me with my grandma has her holding a cig, a beer, and somehow me. These are so cute. My thrift store had these giant balls (LOL) and now I need to go back and get them.
"Some years I feel festive & want to decorate everything, some years I dont feel it." I feel so seen because....same! These came out adorable, and they're styled so beautifully. Reminds me of the crazy expensive wreath the sorry girl diy'd but less work. I'd like to make these more outdoor-friendly. Editing to add this last newsletter with the gift ideas was so dope. Cant wait to get my tea! And keeping an eye out for the incense to restock. Such great suggestions!
Yes! Very similar to the Anthropologie wreath dupe, which is so fun to see people do their spin on. Honestly, with the clear coat I think they might hold up well outside. (That said, I don’t know anything about snow or colder temps as a SoCal girl.) And I hope you get the incense! It’s so fun. I’m really happy you dig.
I did really want to decorate with fresh greenery, so it was the perfect excuse. Fun fact: I went looking for garland at the hardware store. They didn’t have any, but they had a ton of scraps from the trees in the lot, so I took those and ran 😂
WOW 😃😃😃😃 What a great idea!!! 🫡🫡🫡🫡 I am dying over these candle holders!!! 🫠🫠🫠🫠 The sizes the colors the cute gold collars the freaking shine EVERYTHING about them is AWESOME!!! 🤓🤓🤓🤓😽😽😽😽🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
I thought about hitting them with even more shine because I do love how they hit the light. But they’re so happy in the fireplace I’m too lazy to take them out.
Actually the minutue you said how you love the shine in the video I too thought how about more shine?! But you are right in that they look so cosy and cute that you don't wanna bother them but in my lazy life I finally do all the things I put off as I am lazy AND OCD at the same time 😂
These are absolutely gorgeous. Your level of creative genius is astounding! Quick question if you don’t mind. What products did you use to mix up and make the different joyful and fun colours? Would absolutely love to try your method as I’ve never had any luck with the many different methods I’ve tried. Thank you for sharing your talents and for bringing these whimsical decorations into the world. ❤ from Shannon in Canada 🇨🇦
Great question. I just used a bunch of different house paint samples from Home Depot that I have in my stash from a million projects. Adding white to lighten or mixing in different colors. You could also spray paint or probably paint with acrylic paints. You just need a primer it can grip onto. Only thing I would say is don’t mix acrylic art paint with house paint. I’ve learned the hard way many streaky times. Hope that helps.
Totally cracked up at 8:01 ("...do it the old-fashioned way, like all of our grandmothers did it - while smoking." ). :D ::D My grandmother (and both grandfathers) smoked. BTW loved the candle holders. I could see doing them in a lot of different color schemes.
You are so clever with your projects. The ornaments look wonderful in the fireplace (which is a masterpiece all on its own).I love the colors. Like you said festive without being holiday specific. Thanks. Great episode.
Well, it exists now!! Well done! Any colors nowadays can be Christmasy. (They’ve been doing black now FFS.- which actually works). I love all the colorfully Xmas decor. This is super cute. Thx Katie❤
Oh Katie those are so fun and festive and I want them! They will bring cheer for any occasion or just because. I love the different colors and sizes. And you thought these up yourself! They really work in the fireplace. I think I need one of those as well! Love your channel!!
@@LaughCryDIY - Some years I'm "on" some years I'm "off" - this is an off year. I think it's because Thanksgiving was later this year and we sort of lost a week, tha's my excuse!
They look FANTASTIC! I love the colours - I decorate with unconventional colours, too. And A+ for use of what you had, rather than buying a fortune’s worth of craft supplies, using a tiny bit of each, and trying to stuff the leftovers into storage space you don’t really have. (Not that I’ve done this or anything…) Happy holidays!🎄🍄🎁
Hi to Bali! And yes! Please dress up a nonfunctional fireplace. I do love adding greenery or flowers since there’s no fire risk with the flameless candles.
@ I have cheap battery candles in there which are fun but I love real candles too. Bali says hi back. I’m going back to Australia tomorrow. Only six hours on the plane.
I squealed when I saw you had a new video! This is a stunning project and I love your idea of them also being on a dining table.... Que INXS's "The One Thing" video. Photo shopping your candles on this table would be a chef's kiss. Where did you buy the giant ornaments?
I desperately want a long table now!!!! I ended up getting the ornaments from a local dollar store. Just had to make sure they were thicker plastic so they wouldn’t shatter with the drill.
You are a genius.
I don’t know why the world doesn’t already have the designs that live in my head 😂

I was just thinking the same! People are missing out on the fun!
😭 Wow, make my day. That is so sweet to hear. TBH, the algorithm seems to hate me. I don’t know who I made mad. But I’m so grateful for everyone who’s here in our lil club.
That’s so sweet ❤️😭
Damn, y’all are really hyping me up. Thank you for hanging with me each episode. I’m so appreciative of everyone whose watches. ❤️
Great idea! Those are festive and classy...love the non-traditional colors.
I want to add even more colors in! They’re so fun.
I really don't understand why you don't have more subs and so many more views - I love your channel!
Aw, thank you. The algorithm really buries me😭 But so grateful for you.
its giving dopamine christmas 😃
100%. My fave Christmas.
OMG Amazing, this is my favorite DIY you've done as well.
Aw, yay. I may make even more. They’re so good.
Every baby photo of me with my grandma has her holding a cig, a beer, and somehow me. These are so cute. My thrift store had these giant balls (LOL) and now I need to go back and get them.
Haha. I love that.
Those are SO cute!!!!😊❤
They really make me so happy
LOVE THESE ❤ So fun and creative!!
They are definitely one of my faves
Love this!!❤
Thank you!

Loving everything you do here on the channel and commenting for the algorithm, you deserve much more visibility 🥰✨
Aw, you’re so nice. Appreciate the engagement always ❤️
Wow, great idea! I’ll have to try it.
Do it! I might even make more.
I have so many ideas that I can never find online, so, yeah, I’m, either, nuts or they’re great ideas.
I’m pretty sure they’re great ideas 😉
Inventing right before our eyes! Chris’s hands and wedding ring! 1970’s sublime green! Huzzah!
An uncredited Chris cameo 😂 and I agree, that green was 🤌 I wanna make even more with more shades. It’s dangerous.
That’s the sort of colours I use for my Christmas 🎉 love them, so friggen cute🎄
Yay! I love they’re kinda vintage. I wanna add more colors now.
The pine swag pieces give a nod to Christmas 🎄 The project turned out creative and cute! 🕯️
I did really want to decorate with fresh greenery, so it was the perfect excuse. Fun fact: I went looking for garland at the hardware store. They didn’t have any, but they had a ton of scraps from the trees in the lot, so I took those and ran 😂
Oh honey I LOVE oversized ornaments if ya know what I meannnnnnnn
Oh honey, big balls are the reason for the season.
'.. while smoking' 😂😂. Wow these are fabulous!
I mean, where is the lie?
I'm also not a big seasonal decorator, but if I were to, something like this would totally be my jam. Loving your work, as always!
Nice to know I’m not alone in that. I figure these can stay up a little later too, so I can be lazy in taking them down.
This Smoking Granny absolutely adores this channel! Keep on bringing those brilliant but don't exist yet ideas to life.😻
Yessss!!! That is the highest honor in all of DIYland.
Wow, you never cease to amaze me, Katy. 🙀💥💯👏🏾 These ornaments are so adorably retro and match your fireplace perfectly. 🔥
Meow, Baguette. 🐾🐈
They really came through with the vintage vibe. Really got me loving those color ways.
Who are you? So fun, slightly odd and I relate to you totally! New sub.
Welcome to my insanity. I’m a DIYer/former standup comic who loves home decor. Happy to have you here.

This may be my favorite of your DIY's ever!!! Love the concept. Adore the execution. 🎄❤️🎄❤️🎄❤️🎄
Honestly, me too! Funny how some of the smaller or more simpler projects make me so damn happy.
You can't find these beauties in Apostrophie for sure.
Right? I’m tempted to make more now because they’re so fun to sprinkle everywhere.
Your videos are the best. I appreciate your consideration for us ASMR freaks.
I highly recommend your newsletter!
Thank you so much! Sometimes I feel like the asmr is just for me, so it’s nice to know it’s really speaking to the community 😂
Really, really LOVE!!! Great tutorial!
Unfortunately, I want to make more now. 😂

Love it! Always prefer a non-traditional Christmas color scheme so I love your choices. Keep up the great work!
I am happy that it’s become more popular to decorate outside the traditional aesthetic. It’s very fun to customize.

Making the grandparents proud. 😂 It was a lewk and an era.
Best Holiday project I’ve seen this season!! 😊🩷
Aw, that’s so nice. I am trying to mix it up.
You are so clever with your projects. The ornaments look wonderful in the fireplace (which is a masterpiece all on its own).I love the colors. Like you said festive without being holiday specific. Thanks. Great episode.
I want to make more ornaments, and honestly I would be very excited to make another fireplace in my next place. Maybe in a bedroom!
Good morning to you and your hubby! I really really enjoy your content.
Thank you so much. Happy holidays to you and yours ❤️
Utterly obsessed
Honestly, me too. I’m tempted to make more.
Well, it exists now!! Well done! Any colors nowadays can be Christmasy. (They’ve been doing black now FFS.- which actually works). I love all the colorfully Xmas decor. This is super cute. Thx Katie❤
Ooh, I would really love a whimsigoth xmas. Maybe next year…
They are really beautiful ❤
I adore them but resent they make me want to decorate even more 😂
Oh Katie those are so fun and festive and I want them! They will bring cheer for any occasion or just because. I love the different colors and sizes. And you thought these up yourself! They really work in the fireplace. I think I need one of those as well!
Love your channel!!
I am almost templated to make more because I want them sprinkled everywhere. So glad they came out the way they did in my head.
I love the candle holders. You used some of my favorite colors
The palette was really fun. I’m tempted to make more. So joyful.
really cute Idea, looks lovely
Thank you. They’re really fun.
Love, love, love these, what a great idea!
It makes me so happy.
This was a really cute idea. They look good in the fireplace and multi purpose. Nicely done!
Thank you. They’re actually inspiring me to decorate more. Oh no…

I love raccoon decorating (aka sifting through your craft scraps to decorate). It’s the funnest.
Very clever, very cool, I must say.
I am really happy they came together the way I was hoping they would.
Beautiful!! ❤❤🌲😻
❤️❤️❤️❤️
That looks stunning! Great idea!!!
Thank you! Watch them end up in Target next year.
@ !!! 💕
LOOOOOOVE IT!!!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
really cool idea. And i have never seen something like this before
I couldn’t believe they didn’t exist on the whole Internet, but glad I got to customize them.
They turned out so nice! Love it, love your videos
I’m so glad they came out the way I envisioned. I wanna make more.
So beautiful, you are so creative!!
I’m so happy these came out the way they did in my head. Might make more.
So cute
❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely loved this!
Yay! I’m glad they finally exist in the world now.
Super cute!!
I wanna make more because they’re so fun.
Love it 🥰. I might try it at my place. I have a real (non-functional) fireplace, a pop of colour would be fabulous. Greetings from Bali 🎉
Hi to Bali! And yes! Please dress up a nonfunctional fireplace. I do love adding greenery or flowers since there’s no fire risk with the flameless candles.
@ I have cheap battery candles in there which are fun but I love real candles too. Bali says hi back. I’m going back to Australia tomorrow. Only six hours on the plane.
Genius! 👌✨✨✨
I am so happy they came out.
Looks great!
❤️❤️❤️

I squealed when I saw you had a new video! This is a stunning project and I love your idea of them also being on a dining table.... Que INXS's "The One Thing" video. Photo shopping your candles on this table would be a chef's kiss. Where did you buy the giant ornaments?
I desperately want a long table now!!!! I ended up getting the ornaments from a local dollar store. Just had to make sure they were thicker plastic so they wouldn’t shatter with the drill.
