PLEAAASE read my comment below about finding those gates on Temu, please?!
@@loriladyofoursoutherncharm3973 are you talking about the archway stickers? I ordered some right after watching this. I looked up fairy arch stickers and archway stickers and found them. They are, in fact, stickers. You don’t have to use them as stickers and they’re very tricky to get the backing off, but they do have the sticker capabilities.
Hey Brandi! I ended up ordering some of those archway stickers and they ARE stickers! I’ve previously ordered the “pressed flower” stickers and thought that they weren’t stickers either but finally after much fussing got the clear backing to peel to reveal stickers. Same with the archways! It’s great we can use them more than one way tho! Loved your ideas.
Thank you so much!!
Number 5’s arch is just so magical. It makes my imagination soar with thoughts of fairies, fireflies and all kinds of elementals. Don’t get me wrong, all of the boxes are beautiful, but number five transports me to storybook worlds.
I just love number 4. The lights around the box reminds me of stars. The yellow flowers bring out more color. I can see a fairy sitting at the arch. Thank you for such inspiration ❤
I liked and shared this video 📹 out your welcome Brandy 😊❤
Brandy is knocking it out of the park as usual. Although they are all Beautiful I'm really digging #3. Love me some Mushrooms. Very fairy gardenish.❤
Thanks so much Janice!
Number four was my favourite I love the yellow flowers
First of all, I absolutely am in love with #4!! But they are all gorgeous!! and I freaking LOVE GOBLINCORE!!!! So does my son!!!
How fun!
I like them all but #3 is my favorite. I love mushrooms too, and the way you used that scrap piece as a shelf mushroom looked so awesome!!!
I am totally obsessed with all of them but my very favorite is the last one number 5!!!!! I am 61 lover of all fairy pixies magical whimsical and darkness with a touch of twinkle lights!!!!! On the last shadow box I felt like a pixie scurrying about landing here and there to ck out the new scape!!!!! Soooo magical Brandy totally love your crafting ♥️
Love it!
Oh Brandi I really thought #3 was my favorite, but when you finished #5 and turned off the overhead, OMG. It just looked like a bunch of fairies behind there with the little pebble paths leading deeper into the forest with all the trees. It just took my breath away. It’s really stunning, but everything you do that is fairy related do seem to come to life because it is near and dear to your heart and as such you truly put your heart and soul into them. Thank you so much for the inspiration. I will have to send you some pics of some of my nature themed projects one day my kindred spirit. ♥️🙏🏼 (and I know you put your best into all your art. 😉)
Thank you Heather!
#1 and #3 because of the light and the mushrooms. My daughter loves decorating with mushrooms 🍄 and I love making things for her
I bet she loves to get those handmade goodies from you Tracy, that is so sweet of you.
I really love #1 my late husband and I had cabin in the woods in Ellensburg Washington and would pick mushrooms then eat them such precious moments to remember ❤!!!!
Thanks for sharing your memory Connie.❤️
Connie, I live just south of Ellensburg in Yakima and yes the foothills behind Ellensburg are a beautiful place to spend some time.
5 is a favorite with the mushrooms and added flowers
Love #5 with fairy lights that seem to be lighting the hanging lamps
Can I just say how appropriate your background music is on this video?!? It reminds me of when the Fellowship got to Lothlorien and saw the Lady Galadriel. ❤
So fancy! I love that!
I think the first one is my favorite-the one with the treehouse effect. Although I have to say they are all stunning! I do prefer the yellow lights-they do look like sunsets. Thanks so much! ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Brandi I just love you vision of the world around us and you are so precious to share your vision with us thanks for all the inspiration
I think that’s why a lot of us are here to tell the truth. Her take on things and she makes it fun.
The third one is my favorite. I love all the mushrooms. You are a treasure!
Oh yeah … #5 was my favorite! I like the warm lights best. I love the cozy welcoming feel to this piece! All turned out so good but I like #5 best or #3… no 5 yeah 5…. 🤦♀️🤦♀️ they’re all so good!❤️
Yes Braby I would live to see your collection of the things you made and how you style them in your cabinet
#5 for sure. They are all great, but the last one I liked the most.
Brandy thank you so much you are amazing ❤❤❤❤
You are Martina!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE them all but #3 was definitely my favorite! It looked so realistic and I loved the large mushroom put in there!!!
LOVE these!!! Oh, be still my heart 💞💞💞. Brandy, you know how I struggle with this question on your things...especially mini's 😢. I believe I'll have to say #3 just because the lighting, the mushrooms, the "sunset(isque)" feel...EVERYTHING about it, the moss on this one. Oh, to be a little fairy there! 4 almost got my vote with those little flowers & 1 almost did because of the mushrooms. Lady...you KNOCKED THIS ONE OUT OF THE PARK for me 💞💞💞. I GOTTA get my hands on some of that stuff 🤗. Great video, thank you so much my friend 💝. I definitely shared this one to a couple of friends.
Thank you Carla! Check out the link in the pinned comment for those decals.
Number 3 is my favorite. I love how you used the string fairy lights to make the windows light up it is beautiful ❤️ at this time the video has been up for 13hrs it is 8:09am my time. Thank you for sharing your amazingly talented imagination with us.
So pretty~ I am getting ready to turn 64 and I want a tree house too❣ My favorite is #4 the yellow just pops with the lights!
I love all of them. The 2 with the white lights are ethereal. The ones with the warm light actually remind me of Tolkien. My favorite was 5.
It’s so hard to pick just one. However, number 5 is definitely my favourite. It looks like a secret garden entrance or a fairy world behind the arch. You just know if you go under the arch and through to the woods behind you won’t be disappointed in what you find! ❤❤. I just love all the projects that you do.
Thank you Alisa!
Wow Brandy!! All of these are so beautiful. Don't believe I've ever seen anyone make a shadow box before. I'm really partial to #5, the arch with the hanging lights. Just something about it is so serene. Absolutely love it!!!!!
Thank you so much Raylene!
I would have to say my favorite one is 4. Love the way it looks, looks like you could just walk right in and down the lighted path to somewhere.
I like #3, but they were all magical. I chuckled when you talked about saving your scraps. I do the same thing, leftover ribbons, fabric. My husband is so wonderful and always helps me pick up my craft mess when I'm done with a project. He is absolutly amazed with the stuff I say" no, don't throw that out." We crafters must be all the same. I hope that's good. Lol
Wonderful! Hahaha! I knew I wasn’t alone in that.
#4 is the best! Not only does it have great depth, but the double arches make it feel like a beautiful path into a magical fairy forest! ❤❤
It’s so difficult to choose! I ❤️ them all. I am a cottage core girl all the way. I see putting little fairies and gnomes in each one. If I had to choose just one it would have to be #3….. no…5…..no…2….no…1…..no definitely 3. Maybe 4. As I said I love them all!!!
Hahahahaha!
Love them all but my Favorite is no 3 The Treehouse. I can imagine myself living in one beautiful ❤️. The musrooms are the icing ❤
They are all Magical and very beautiful ❤️
Gives me a fairy garden vibes! So adorable ❤
I love the 3rd one! The light in the windows, WOW!
Oh Brandy be still my beating heart 💜 I love woodland, fairies and miniatures....so I loved them all. I was sure and set on number 3 being my favourite until I saw number 5. Number 5 is my favourite because to me it's a view into a mystical woods. What and who will be found is a mystery. It's cozy and inviting. I love how you made the lights go around the arch. Just stunning xx
Thank you Ruth, I’m happy you like them.
I think I like number 3 the best because it looks like I could just take a walk in there as a tiny faerie and enjoy my time visiting the area. I love watching your videos where you get into making little magical fantasy lands because I can tell you love magical fantasy as much as I still do as a woman who never fully grew up inside either. I think that is a very good thing though. And I like how I can tell you really love trees also. That’s a wonderful thing in my opinion. These are wonderful and even if I don’t win I thoroughly enjoyed watching you enjoy making them so much while I’m here in bed trying to get through Covid again. Thank you and happy crafting.
Thank you, get well soon!
I love #5! It looks like a portal to fairyland. ❤️🧚♀️🧚🧚♂️❤
These are all equally beautiful, but I think #3 is my favorite. ♥️ 🍄 It reminds me of mushroom foraging with my Dad when I was young.
Love it!
Brandi you nailed this one. I am crushing hard on ⚃ 4️⃣ and i felt like i was in the enchantment and forest. This is my fav video of your of all videos
5 is next fav. But i am crushubg hard on ALL THEM
Thanks Laura!
Liked no. 3
All were great. Number 5 is my favorite. The arch was like gateway inviting into another world.
I liked number 4 because of the flowers. I can just imagine a fairy wedding there.
Also, I'm 54 and would absolutely love to have a tree house.
I'm only 40, but I can bring some snacks.... 😂😂
😁
Came back for the contest, but also to tell you how much I especially LOVE these type videos . The fairy theme is my favorite. Trying to pick my favorite shadow box is much tougher.😅 But I think my very favorite is #4. Thank you so much! ❤
I think it looks especially magical with the way you put the lights. Just ❤️ it! 😊
Yay! Thank you!
This is a hard one to pick, #3 is my favorite shadow box. It reminds me of an enchanting forest where fairies would be fluttering about. It has everything, depth, dimension, and so much style. It's enchanted! Hugs
Thank you!
I cannot pick just one!! They are all adorable!! Please do more with these clear things. They are beautiful but I have no imagination at all
Give yourself some credit, I bet you can come up with something amazing!
They’re all beautiful but # 3 is my favorite with the mushroom added it has more depth and looks awesome.
I like #5. I really like the way you did the lighted arch. It looks like the entrance to a fairy land. So ethereal and pretty!
Thanks!
I love them all ! My favorite is #3 , I love how the fairy lights come through the windows ❤
They are all so beautiful, but I like #2. But what I really liked was the music you chose. It was perfect and set the mood for all your fairy kingdoms!🥰
Thanks so much 😊
OMGOSH Brandi you have outdone yourself today!!! I am in awe of all these today. ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊 Number 1 is my favorite because it is like there is a fire going on inside. I can imagine there are gnomes in there having a party.😅
Fun!
I can't pick a favorite, I LOVE them all! I'm the weird neighbor who has fake mouse holes in my baseboards in different rooms, lol. I would love to put 1 or 2 of these in my house as well and also some of the boxes. I have some of the little gnome doors outside as well at the base of my walnut trees
Sounds fun!
Oh my gosh!
These are so stinking adorable. I have my brain exploding with ideas! Thanks for sharing. Great job 😊
I love # 3
I love all of them they look so amazing like walking in a thick forest made just for little fairies to come and have fun and where they could get married in. I love them you have an amazing talent in you for creating fairy lands.
Brandy, These are fantastic and magical! What a nice light night or just to warm up any corner!
Glad you like them!
These are all so beautiful! I think I have two favorites! I love #3 bc the little lights in the house feel so comforting and warming. Like some happy fairies are all curled up in their little house reading a book before bed!
I also loved #5 bc it's so magical looking! That stone was such a great choice! It really looked like a magically lit path back off into the distant forest! So good Brandy! Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable with you're self and your creations! ❤
Thanks so much! 😊
I love the first box the best! The little mushrooms are the cutest!
All 5 are very magical. My favorite are #1 and #3. Thanks for another great DIY idea!
I loved them all, but box 3 is my favorite, with the cozy lit windows and the verdant growth and mushrooms all around. So inspiring for spring! 🌱
Thanks so much! 😊
Why do you make me pick one it's so not fair but I do love nr 3 and 4 ........ why? Because I can imagine myself walking in a forest and stumbling over a log sitting down on the ground and see these beautiful fairy landscapes ........... but deep in my heart I just love them all 😊
I love #4 the best ! I just love he arches especially when the fairy lights are on absolutely mystical! ❤
MY favorites are as follows:
3, 5, 4, 2 then 1!!!
3 & 5 are just MAGICAL!!!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I like #3 because of the 2 layer dimensions and how you put the lights in the windows!!
It looks like a nice and relaxing place to visit.
Reminds me of "The Lord of the Rings" sets!
#5 with the lighted up archway is brilliant and the crushed cork does make it look like a little Hobbit walkway!! lol
#4 looks like Samwise Ganges & Rose Cotton’s wedding!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!
Love it!! Thank you!
All are beautiful but #5 is my favorite. I also prefer the soft lights, so enchanted looking. Great job! Ty
So reminiscent of elementary school dioramas! I love them all and can't wait to make them. Looked for the "stickers" you used can't find them but found some other amazing ones. I think if would be awesome to attach them all and use some lights on a remote. Wouldn't that be a great nightlight, fall off to sleep and escape into your fairy realm
Great idea Mary, I really like that.
Shared this public beautiful show
Thank you Linda!
I can't pick just one cuz I loved them all, very enchanting n magical
These are amazing. 3 and 4 are my favorite with the lights and the mushrooms. They just look magical.
I can get lost in those boxes very easily..❤❤😊
You and me both!
I do like all but 5 is my favorite. I like the open sticker , warm fairy lights and how they are hidden. It really takes me there
They are. All gorgeous! I had a difficult time choosing one, but I think my favorite is № 5. They are all ethereal and enchanting, but the last one was like taking a wandering walk through the woods on the path with fairies providing the light on your way. ❤
It's so hard to pick which one would be my favorite. I absolutely adore every one of them but if I had to pick I would say number four is my favorite I just love the layering of the Moss and then the flowers it's a very hard pick but I think number four is my favorite. You totally amaze me with your work. Thank you so much for all of the wonderful ideas❤❤
they are all beautiful !!! If I have to pick only one, I would pick #4
I like box4, love the pop of color, yellow
Adorable little boxes. I love your Bob Ross storytelling
Great video my friend! when you craft!
Thank you Kendra! 😊
Brandi thank you for all your fantastic crafting and beautiful posts. I am 72 years old and throughly enjoy most everything you do (even when I’m unable to participate much). I just learned you live in Alabama where I also live. I searched for an email address for you (to no avail) I wanted to ask if we possibly could be related. The reason I ask is we share an inherited trait. That being our thumbs. Mine are from my father’s side. His were from his mother. His mother died of TB when he was only 5 or 6 so we have little knowledge of her or her family. Makes me wonder each time I see someone with our thumbs and that’s only happened TWICE in my 72 years. Perhaps we will be able to communicate somehow in the future. Till then I will hope and continue to enjoy your posts! ❤ Thank you and keep up the good work!
Hi Cindy! My email is makingitmyown1@gmail.com. I’m originally from Louisiana. Most of my folks on my mothers and fathers sides are from the Appalachian hills.
Soooooo beautiful Brandi !!!! Your shadow boxes are always beautiful !!!
I appreciate that Debbie!
I wish i was a tiny fairy 🧚♀️ would love to live in the little castle. Number 3 is my favourite
But all of them are so magical .
Oh wow these are awesome but my favorite has to be #4, because i love fairy lights & (2) because we are having a backyard wedding party for my youngest son ghis summer!❤❤
How fun! Congrats to him and his future spouse.❤️
I love #5. It looks like an enchanted forest. Thank you for the ideas
Oh my gosh!!! I love them ALL so so much! I think I would have to pick number 5 because I feel like I could walk right into it and be in fairyland! These are incredibly beautiful and you are so good at this!!
Thank you very much!
Brandi I would love any of these but I think my favorite is #5❤❤ I love all of your nature creations!
Thanks Lana!
So torn to pick a favorite. I love the flowers in 4,but I'm going to say my favorite one is the first,just because you stepped out of your comfort zone and made something amazing! 🌳🌲🌳
Thank you Kay, that means a lot to me.
I like number 3 the best! The lighting looks so soft and calming! I would love to make one like that. They all look great and I love the little mushrooms! 😍
Thanks so much! I hope you do.
It's ok if I don't receive boxes because I can't choose. I really LOVE them all and I'm just really greatful for your videos of inspiration. Thank you ❤
Thanks for watching!
You just made making a book nook look so easy!
I was thinking the same thing!!!!
Thanks!
I love #5. It looks like I could walk right into the secrets beyond the lights.
❤❤❤ I love the fairy lights... I believe in fairy's ❤❤❤ your so crafty...
❤️
I love 4. I’ve always wanted to make a dimensional scene. These boxes gave me inspiration. I think the mushrooms are my favorite, they’re so cute.
Go for it!
I really loved number 4, because of the yellow flowers!!!!
Brandy, you could use glue dots in place of stick tape or glue. Less bulky than tape plus they are removable. I really liked the last one. Maybe that is because it like symmetry!
Great idea Tammy!
I thought #3 was going to be my favorite, but then #4 was finished and it was my favorite. Then, #5 stole the show. The mix of materials and defined lighting in #5 are just perfect. 😍 I’ve had a large diorama box sitting around forever and now I know what I’ve been saving it for. Thanks for the inspo.
Thank you! Have fun creating your own
They're all so beautiful. Number 3 is my favorite. Then comes #5. Makes me wish I could be standing in that box with all the beautiful woodsy things going on. So so beautiful. I've never seen anything like this from any crafters. Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent.
Thanks Cynthia!
Brandi, you have such a wonderful imagination which makes your woodland creations by far the best I have see. Number 4 is my favorite. I could just imagine little fairies 🧚♀️ everywhere. THANK YOU for the inspiration.😊
Wow, thank you!
These are so cute but my favorite is #4 I want a home like those all covered with moss they are gorgeous but I also like #5 cuz like I said I love the moss covered homes and want one of my own...lol! I'd love to have one
Love these! They’re all so mystical especially those with the warm and fairy lights. Number 5 is my favorite 💗
Brandi, all of your shadow boxes turned out phenomenal! My favorite was box 3 with the larger mushroom. It is really reminiscent of a little fairy village and, like you, the fairy lover in me is still alive and kicking after 60 years. The depth of the particular box is inviting me in to travel in the magical fairy forest and to see if I spot any little people as they flit and fly around between the homes. Loved them all!
I like 1-but I do like the warmer lights.
Brandy. Really beautiful crafts. Love what you created. So much fun. Everything is so beautiful!
Thank you so much!
I like #1 because I really like mushrooms as well and love how the light shines through the mushroom arch! All five are great 😊 Definitely will be using this for my inspiration! Thank you!!!
