    It really makes you feel good when you can make something from a household item and not go out and make a s[ecial purchase for a couple of cards. You will want to come back to this technique many times after you firat try. The results are outstanding and they are never the same.

      You should adopt an older person in your neighborhood who may live alone or might be in an assisted living facility. I’m sure they’d love to have a regular visitor they can count on. Take your kids or grandkids and you could be giving that person one of the best gifts they ever received in their life. Love!

So that should show you that you are truly doing great things that have positive impacts on people. If two complete strangers have the exact same experiences. It shows what we say must be true. Even having a positive impact on just one person will bring their energy vibration high, (which is fastest achieved when we feel loved and appreciated) their energy will bring others around them to higher positive vibrations, "In the vortex" Abraham teaches.

    My living grandparents are all toxic, dangerous, and manipulative people. The only good grandparent I ever got was my grandpa, who passed in 2020. This video is very comforting for me, I always wished I had one of those cozy and kind grandmothers that would teach you how to do arts and crafts and bake cookies for you every time you visited. Thanks for teaching us this neat technique, hope you’re doing well ❤

      I don't know how it is in the US but in Australia if you buy something more often hardware stores will have a ton of cardboard boxes of all sizes behind the registers like in the path where you leave. And you can grab as many as you can carry to put all your hardware bits in. Aldi is much the same. You find one of their opened top boxes carrying a few items, canned food is always in short open topped boxes only a few inches tall, and you throw the cans on the shelf and use that shallow box instead of your carry bag/tote and the cashiers are used to it.

    • @lis819

      Why not ask the kids to bring in an old box top? When everyone has got one (maybe some could bring in a couple and share) then have the class.

    You can also stamp with Vaseline, spray alcohol all over the paper, then add the alcohol ink if you want lighter colors. With the paper being wet first your alcohol ink will really spread fast. I love the second paper. Gorgeous 😍

But I close my eyes and I just listen to her talk, I’m 50 years old I lost my grandmother many years ago and just listening to this woman reminding me of her, and I could hear my grandmother‘s voice, as she taught me how to sew Barbie clothes when I was a little girl. Before I knew it, tears were rolling down my face as I miss her dearly. That being said I hope and pray this lovely lady is well and again I don’t know how this video popped up for me but I’m so glad it did…

    Just to let you know, Vaseline can last up to 10 years in the jar. But, do not use your fingers or that will put bacteria that can be very dangerous in the jar. Use a clean spoon or a clean Q-tip. I just googled all of this from the Internet. 😊❤

    I noticed right away you Vaseline jar is vintage. What a cute design. I’m excited to try this technique. And share it with my friend who I hope takes up painting. I’m giving her some of my paints because I have more than enough. She draws better than I do, but only uses markers to color her work, and not very creatively I must say, but after discussing her journey I think she just didn’t know she’s not too old to develop new skills.
