I honestly have been thinking about you the past week. As a long time watcher I know something important was up because I'm accustomed to your content around the holidays. I know that there is a darkness that's on your shoulder and it takes time, but I know that letting your creativity shine will help you get grounded. A lot of things happened that were unpleasant and unplanned but you are extremely lucky to have the boutique, the loveliest cottage that you transformed a loving family and a wild creative mind. You are one of the most aesthetic and cozy person I follow on TH-cam and I feel since it's the holidays its best to ham it up and get your hands into candles, textures, cozy things, yummy things. It makes you feel better. I had a really bad bout myself and I'm at home drinking chai tea and eating pistachios watching one of my favorite people on TH-cam. Seeing you smile and watching you already is putting me in a better mood, take it one day at a time, I'm sending my love and thoughts to you and I'll be rooting for you from the sidelines as always. *edit* The holiday scratcher! It's officially the holidays when I see you scratch away!
@@florencecavallaro4599 I am so sorry my love. I wish I had the words to ease your pain but I lack them. Just know I would give you a hug. You're very strong and just...cherish the moments you had with him and continue to be the person he fell in love with.
First time I’ve ever written a comment ever! I’m 62 and sad for different reasons and I love how gentle you are. You don’t jump up and down shouting, “Be positive!” You let yourself and others be who and where you are. Thank you and I hope all of us can find things we can enjoy over these weeks, like watching your videos. Heart❤ Sometimes, I have found a good way to feel better is to do things for others. And eating chocolate!
I apologize in advance for the translation (it is machine-made). I'm from Russia and I don't know English well, so I usually don't write comments. I just want to tell you that you are just a wonderful person and we love you very much. You have no idea what an impact you have on us, what a big part of our lives you have become. You are a very light and resilient person and you will handle this situation. At your age, you have already achieved so much, you are such an inspiring example for young women. We are proud of you, Elise, we love and admire you. In this difficult time, your channel is an emotional support for me, and I believe that you will cope with all the problems. With love, Katya💖
I'm also Russian 👋🏻 and I'm so in love with your content, Elise! You are such a beautiful and inspiring person, you bring warmth and coziness to the world and people around 🌱 I wish you strength and kindness to yourself in those tough times. We love you 💗
Lots of love from this grandma who unfortunately knows what a broken heart feels like. But we are strong women and we will survive. We always do ! Love you sweet girl. Greetings from the Netherlands
Dear Élise (I love your French first name), I am a 67 year old lady and I have had several very painful breakups in my life. When you are in it, you believe that it will never end, but life is generous and there is always an end and a cure. Thankfully, it's only in books and movies that grief is eternal! There will still be happiness for you, I promise you. In the meantime, you do what you have to: take care of yourself, take refuge in creativity and in your pretty cottage. Do you feel all the love we send you? We will always be there for you, you deserve it. Kisses and sweet thoughts from France. (Google traduction, sorry for any errors)
There‘s love abundance in this world. It’s your personal choice how you perceive it: When one door closes another opens. But we often look so regretfully upon the closed door that we don’t see the one that has opened for us. Love is everywhere around you. Merry christmas to y‘all!
Elise, when you are ready to share we will be here. If you are never ready to share that is okay too. You are allowed privacy, no matter what some people think. As long as you are happy and healthy that is all that matters. Sending you love, light and joy this Christmas season.
The older I get, the happier I see people's true character sooner than later, so I don't waste too much of time that I will never get back. This will hurt for now, but time is on your side to create a happier story. Btw, the opening scenery with the walkway and hedges is beautiful.
Girl. You take care of you. We- your audience, fans, etc - of course curious and concerned, but it’s your life. You deserve to be able to keep it private and not be pushed into transparency. You provide beautiful videos with all the cozy vibes. Just take care of you and the rest will fall into place. ❤
So sorry to hear how tough things for you have been lately. Take all the time you need to heal. We’ll (your TH-cam family) be here for you when you are ready. I hope you are able to spend some good quality time with your friends and family for the holidays coming up. And make sure to treat yourself because you deserve it. Sending lots of healing vibes and love your way. 🫶💛
My Da always taught me that when something awful happened in my life and things went wrong for me, it was fate making way for something wonderful to come in; and that if the thing I thought I wanted had happened, then maybe the more beautiful thing could not. Know that you are loved and respected and cherished. xoxo
They had hitched a ride to your beautiful light and tried to drain you. Stop now breathe, feel your hands and feet wriggle your toes be in this present 🎁 moment now. Cut the cord to those that no longer match your vibration. You have so much light and joy to share. It’s good to be real. Love yourself from the inside its the only path to true joy and peace💗
I don't know why but I had a bad feeling about you rehoming luna, the new boyfriend & leaving your apartment!! I hope you begin to put things back together, the only thing I would ever say is dont give up your pets or home for any man....
Oh, my heart goes out to you! You are so clearly on the edge of breaking down in tears.. I have been there, where your emotions sit right in your throat and threaten to explode out at any moment. You will get past this.. as painful as this experience is, it is teaching you an incredible lesson. That you are far stronger than you realise, and that your life will be better than you ever imagined, because you can rebuild and rely on yourself no matter what happens to you. You are beautiful, and strong, and you will be happy again, and it will be YOUR doing. Sending all the love in the world ❤
Broken hearts, like broken bones, take time to heal. You are right in letting your loved ones know you’re hurting so that they can give you the extra love and support they want to give you. The fact you were able to go and decorate your cottage shows you are already on the mend, even if you forced yourself. Love you 😘 🤗 🌹
They call them growing pains because out of it, you will definitely grow and learn . Learn mostly about yourself and what a gift that is! Blessings dear one 🤍
A few years ago I was in a bad situation, where I had to move quite suddenly and because of that I ended up in a horrible rental flat. I hated every moment of living there. I've got anxiety because I thought I was tough and I tried to keep it all inside. So I think you are doing it the right way, don't follow my mistake, be honest to yourself, to others. Also take your time, we are here, waiting for you to return. ❤
Dear Susy, that is some great sound advice!! This time of the year sucks to be looking for a new apartment and worst time of year to lose a loved one 💔 😔 (relationship or loss of loved family member) I'm just thankful our Sweet Elise is financially able too handle this kind of heartache!! 🙏
Elise, I'm proud of your efforts to be both busy and healing. I just lost my sweet, beautiful dog, Lola, a few days ago; so I understand how a broken heart can color the festive season. Give yourself time. Surround yourself with those who love you. Don't give up. And, remember that those of us who watch you understand. We are here to lift you up whenever you can barely hold up your head. The internet isn't all trolls. We love you and are here to lean on if you need us. ❤️
😢 I was so hoping I would see you beautiful face and spirit again in December. I just knew it was not going well for you BUT it will get better now since you are taking steps to follow the path you know is best for you. We love you.
Can i just say the comment section on this video is just amazing. I screen shotted so many amazing pieces of encouragement and advice for when I need it. You have such a beautiful community here Elise 💛 the goodness and light in you has attracted beauty and light that is in others and it’s wonderful 💛
Sending a big deep soul healing hug to you, Elise. Just a gentle reminder to anyone open to it: life is full of all types of changes and emotions, some may feel bad, some may feel good, but our worth never fluctuates nor changes with them. We are always worthy of the very best! Much love to you!
My dreams were crushed again for the second time. Stay busy, adapt, keep moving with projects so you don’t dwell on the bad. Always have projects lined up.
There's such a twinkle in your eye while you're at the cottage, it's wonderful to see it again Elise, it's been missed... it'll soon be the New Year and all the magical adventures it'll bring await you still.. May you have a truly beautiful festive season with your family 🎄 xxx
Elise, do you know that you inspire your subscribers? You've got me stringing up fairy lights and rocking my inner hippie. I'm about to go out and buy my granddaughter a beret. She's a real beauty like you. What I'm trying to say is, you hang in there dear. You're a girl to shout from the rooftops for; and don't let anybody tell you otherwise. Merry Christmas from Sault Ste Marie, Canada.
Gosh I’ve been waiting for an upload. You sweet girl❤2023 is going to be so much better because you have learnt valuable lessons this year. The cottage looks amazing.
Your little cottage is beautiful…just like you! Putting up all those lights was a HUGE job…you persevered through it. You are so wise …knowing that now you’re hurting but it WILL get better in time. No one needs to know what happened because it is clear that you are a kind, honest person. Proverbs in the Bible talks a lot about God’s looking out for the kind, prudent people who want to “ do right” . Well, you are certainly beautiful on the outside but far more important is how beautiful you are on the inside.🥰
I just had my baby last dec 1 and named her Elisse after you (changed the spelling a bit) 😊 I really love how laidback and chill your videos are and had been binge watching your videos since I was pregnant. Hopeful that this heartbreak will only make you stronger and wiser.
Know how you are feeling, have been there myself many years ago but it's something you never forget. A rotten time of year for this to happen to you but what is meant to be will be and you'll be the stronger person for it at the end of the day, believe me. It won't feel like it at the moment but you'll get there. Take care of yourself and be with people who love you for you.
Love and hugs to you my dear. Heartaches take time to heal, but will...This too shall pass. You are beautiful inside and out. I am praying for you and healing.
ปีที่แล้ว +5
Elise, you're loved, you're valuable, and you're valid. I'm sending you a hug.
I'm so sorry ! I understand completely. I am going through a prolonged breakup. I have been with someone for 12 years, supported him in every way including monetarily while he tried to figure out what to do in life. The entire time he hasn't worked more than a few months. I got told in early November that he is leaving me and moving to Australia to be with internet friends who support and understand him. I am past stunned, shocked, confused and heartbroken and now I'm just mad. All I can say is I'll be glad when he's gone so I can try to pick up the pieces and start over. My heart goes out to you. Take care.
Fairy lights make everything better. Take your time to heal and we will be here for you when you feel well enough to create content. Holiday Blessings xx
I am delighted to see your name in my feed this morning. I have been thinking of you during this time as I can relate in ways. My life changed full circle one day this past October and the adjustment and healing has been difficult. We must focus on US ourselves going forward and listen to our hearts 💕 find peace and happiness in the things that bring us joy
Dear Elise, I'm so so impressed by how authentic you are and I think most of us here understand that you share when you're ready to - don't feel pressured, it sounds like you're dealing with a lot as it is. I'm going through a heartbreak, it's been almost 4 months now, and I have been so hard on myself thinking I'd have to be over it by now, not giving myself the time I need to fully feel everything and then let it go. I've read something the other day and related so much with it - "to avoid spending so much time feeling upset, offended, or annoyed, remind yourself to stop taking things personally. The things people do and think has everything to do with them and nothing to do with you. You are only in control of your reaction, not their perspective." I don't know how much you can relate to it right now, but I wish you alllll the strength to go through this and hope you stay strong no matter how hard it might seem
I was so happy to see your sweet precious self on You tube today....I have been and will continue to pray for you to have strength, knowledge and faith to overcome this bump in the road of life. I am an old granny of 78 yrs, and I have faced a lot of heartaches and losses, but my faith has always seen me through. You will grow stronger each day, don't dwell on the pass, it is gone forever, tomorrow has not come, today is the day we have control over.....your little cottage is magical, the lights give it the fairy touch of Elise...you are quite special . Good things come to those who wait...Blessings sweet girl.
Everything you touch turns magical!! It hurts me to see you hurting. Remember always you are loved and loveable. The number one thing that helped my last break up was this : loving myself. Every time I felt hurt or thinking how I still loved him I would remind myself: I love myself MORE. Actively keep doing the things that bring you joy, such as you did today.
You are such a brave women. You are strong. You are an inspiration. You are respectful towards the people who caused your heartbreak. You act with integrity. I am so proud of how you handle your painful situation. You are in my prayers. Hannah from South Africa
Wishing you all the best Elise. You'll get through this. I'm going through a lot of heartbreak myself. In July my fiance and I split after 9.5 years because we wanted different things in life. It absolutely broke my heart, but I do wish him well and hope he gets what he wants and needs in life. I also wish that for myself, and for you Elise. We can and will get through this. One day at a time.
You may feel like you're barely standing but you're doing it, my love, every day. There's not many times in life that we get to completely reset and whilst I know it's so hard right now, take this time to look after yourself and live your life for you. You're an incredible young woman, Elise, and you're going to do so many great things. ❤
Beautiful girl, your cottage looks sooo beautiful with the icicle lights glittering. You pack folks orders in such a wonderful way - they will be so thrilled to open them - the clothes look fab and glitz, and your wrapping is just divine, done with love. Thank you for sharing your feelings on a broken heart - which you are suffering right now - You are a beautiful soul, as well as stunning looking, so my wish for you, is that you find a special someone again, to fill your heart with joy. Good Luck in your lovely boutique. Love and hugs from a freezing Devon, England. xxx
I recently rediscovered your channel after not following you for a couple of months… and I am really sorry to hear how life turned out for you lately. I am sure next year will be brighter because you’ve been through so much, and it’s always darkest before the dawn. I’ve been learning this lesson as well this year. I am happy to be back and to see how gracefully you’re handling your hardships. I wish the best for you and hope you will have a cozy and lighthearted Christmas!
I have really really missed you, this time of the year you used to do so much content, baking cookies, thrift shopping, decorating. I miss the Luna and the advent calendar. I wish you all the best, I send you a huge huge hug, you are so dear to me, I am 41 years old and I have so much to learn from you.
I'm so sorry to see you in pain. You are a beautiful person inside and out! Remember you are not alone you have a lot of people who care about you. It will get better hang in there. Wishing you happiness and peace now and forever. 🤩
I am also healing a broken heart this winter. Finding that my peace and happiness feel so much sweeter than the pain of a broken relationship, and there is still grief to be felt in the transition. Wishing you love and happiness, thank you for sharing your life with us
Yes, your response to hardship is inspiring and helpful! Thank you for showing us. Hope you feel better soon ☺❤🌷 Also, impressive installing the fairy lights. Beautiful ☺🌷🌿🐦🎉🦋❤
Christmas is a hard time to be going though anything difficult. I completely understand. One day at a time. One task at a time. It's okay to feel all the sad you need to as well. You just gotta keep on keeping on.... holding your head up as high as you can. I love your videos (and shop). I've watched you for years. You seem like such a kind person with a sweet soul. It will get better. 🖤 Just remember all the love out there for you 🙏I'm sure we would all give you a big hug if we could!
I've been thinking about you as your usually my daily December companion. I've recently chime out of a bad time myself and you're right, they don't last forever. I'm hoping yours ends soon! Be gentle to yourself in the meantime. Merry Christmas 🎄
You deserve so much better then you were given this past year, but the best is yet to come! I had a feeling this was coming but I am still sorry to be correct. Take some time to heal your heart. Hugs & kisses from Texas.
Hello Elise, sending lots of love, peace and happiness your way. You're doing the right thing by opening up and allowing yourself to go through the letting go process. It's never easy but it's another growing experience. Lots of love to everyone reading this. ✌️❤️🙏
I’m so glad to see you and that you are keeping busy and moving forward with your life. I’m 75( yikes…I know,that’s flipping old!) and I have been through a lot of stuff( would rather insert a BAD word here) in my life too. Each time that something would derail my life,I would just go back to work at my job and move forward, taking care of myself and my children. I’d just focus on having fun and moving forward. Looking back on it all, my life got better and better each time,though I never thought that would happen right away. People say “ things happen for a reason”and I always believed that it’s to free you up for something so much better! Elise… you are one of the most creative people I have ever seen! You have a phenomenal eye for fashion and you are superb at putting colors and outfits together! It’s good to see you focusing on your business and the cottage and just relaxing for a bit. Life has so much in store for you! 🎉❤💐PS…LOVE THE FAIRY LIGHTS!
For some reason, even though I've been watching your content for many years, I felt you so close to my heart in this video.. I feel for you. Take care of yourself Elise and have a Merry Christmas 🎄
Elise I'm so sorry to hear you are going through difficult times, heartbreak is so incredibly painful. I've only recently found your channel through my love of clothes and could see that you have had a lot of change over the past few months, major changes like moving out of your apartment. Something you did because you had plans for your future with your partner, it must make it doubly hard after making such big changes in your life. I'm sure it won't feel like it for some time to come but it is for the best, time to write a new chapter full of new dreams and plans. You are young, beautiful and talented, you have the world at your feet, it's yours for the taking. Be kind to yourself, surround yourself with friends and family, people who you can laugh and cry with and have lots of healing hugs. Take it slowly, everyday is a new beginning, a new page a new adventure. Adventures don't have to be big, a daily tiny adventure can be as simple as taking a walk in a new place, visiting a different town/gallery/shop/cafe or taking a hot picnic lunch to sit by a beautiful lake. Things to feed the soul, connect with nature, listen to music and put your hands over your heart and give yourself love, tell yourself that you love you. You will heal my lovely, I promise. Much love to you from a 57 yr old who has had her heart broken and her dreams dashed many times over. Life goes on, paths change, people come and go in our lives, some people are meant to be in our lives for a lifetime and others just for a little while but they all have their part to play in shaping the people we are. I always examine difficult situations/relationships/events and look for what it/they are trying to teach me, we can learn from all experiences and take something positive away from it. Much like your clothes, our lives are woven from many coloured threads, the threads of our experiences, a beautiful rich tapestry. I highly recommend this book - katherine-may.co.uk/wintering I read it last winter just before Christmas when I was feeling very low. Take good care of yourself. xx
My grandmother always told me never cry over a man....theres many fish in the sea.......they're not worth a moment of fret, as one is going out the back door many more will be lined up at the front door because you are special and beautiful.
Elise, Congratulations for taking back control of your life. I couldn’t watch your videos, lately they were so painful to watch with denial, untrue and secrets. Thank goodness you are protected yourself from an unhealthy lifestyle & unhealthy relationship. Honestly is the best policy, let’s hope you can live your best authentic life. I don’t think it’s healthy putting up videos and not posting the truth. It’s unfair to the viewers, and insults their intelligence. Wishing you the best 💐🇬🇧🎄
This was beautiful! I'm glad you're moving forward and making the best of the situation. I love seeing the footage of your little cabin and excited to see what you have planned for it❤️
Elise, I just wanted to say that your video today was one of the most beautiful--and quietly powerful-- that I've seen on youtube. So much unspoken feeling held in an exquisite, gentle silence. The hanging of lights around your cottage . . . and that gorgeous music that, for me, fit the whole tone perfectly. Yes, as someone commented, the music perhaps had deep sadness in it, but it felt also hugely affirming at the same time; so peaceful, uplifting yet serene. Yes! Thank you for sharing your wonderful creative self with others, when times feel right for you. As an old once-therapist, I feel you are following an innate knowing about how to heal. And spreading that with so much creativity, whether with or without words. Keep trusting your own heart, with its courage and sensitivity--for yourself and others.
Your comment said everything I was thinking and quite beautifully too. I agree that this is likely the most beautiful video I have ever seen on TH-cam.
I've been there before. When I was a younger woman I had a breakup. I couldn't eat, every song I heard on the radio made me cry and if you ask me now about him, I'd say, I don't remember much about him. Time heals all wounds. Hang in there kiddo. I'm rooting for you.
I am so sorry for all the heartache you have been going through. I know that you will slowly heal and once again find your voice and then never let anyone take it from you again. You are an amazing young woman with so much inner strength. You will pull through and not only survive but thrive. Have a wonderful Christmas and may 2023 bring you so much joy and peace. Lots of love from far away South Africa
I’ve thought about you countless times the last couple of weeks. Life often kicks the stuffing out of us when we least expect it. During those times when I feel as if my poor heart can’t possibly continue to beat, like you I try so very hard to focus on the positive aspects of my life. I wish you all the joy and happiness your heart needs at the moment. Merry Christmas Elise.
It's a pleasure to have you back, Elise. Maybe it's not your best time, but everything will pass and It will make you stronger. You're a creative, sensitive, hard-working and positive woman, and it's what keeps us here. ✊
I was so happy to see you again. Everything will be alright. I think all of us had a broken heart at some point in our lives and we all know it feels like the worst pain we will ever experience but we do make it through it. I wish the best for you and hope your sadness ends sooner rather than later. Let me tell you how great it was to see you at the cottage. I truly mean it makes my heart feel warm So cozy and whimsical. You are like a Fairy Princess when you are there. My thoughts are only positive for you and it will be ok.
Surrounding yourself with beauty and allowing your creativity to guide you, is the very best medicine. Your little cottage surely must feel like a warm hug from a close friend. It’s adorable and you created it.
Missed you Elise! So sorry that you are experiencing a tough time, but it will get better. Soon we will see you back on your feet and smiling! Much love from Cape Town South Africa
Your private life is yours to share or not :) You don't owe anyone an explanation. It seems like you've been through so much lately, I hope you have a restful and lovely holiday season with your family, please take care of yourself ♥
Elise, everything in life happens for a reason. When one door closes, another truly does open. I love that you are the kind of person who understands what you need to do to get over your broken heart! Love yourself because you are really a wonderful person and you deserve to enjoy all the wonderful moments of life whether with someone or just by your lovely self. Things do get better and you are doing what you need to heal. You are an inspiration and I hope the rest of your holiday is great and you have a terrific new year! Best from an older fan who has been through lots of life challenges.
I'm so sorry your going through this Elise. I have been thinking about you and hoping you are doing ok. It will be a slow process no doubt but you will get through it as the strong, independent woman you are. Big hugs 💕

Thank you for expressing this. Elise is so important to us and we love her very much.
Du er sej Elisa❤
"Better light a candle than curse the darkness." You're doing it right. Feel better soon, Elise.
That's a lovely sentiment, I've never heard it before, but how true. Thank you.
First time I’ve ever written a comment ever! I’m 62 and sad for different reasons and I love how gentle you are. You don’t jump up and down shouting, “Be positive!” You let yourself and others be who and where you are. Thank you and I hope all of us can find things we can enjoy over these weeks, like watching your videos. Heart❤ Sometimes, I have found a good way to feel better is to do things for others. And eating chocolate!
Lots of chocolate and marcipan 🥰 And thank you!
I’m not sure how this all works because Iv never messaged on TH-cam, but can you send me pictures of what you have?
I apologize in advance for the translation (it is machine-made). I'm from Russia and I don't know English well, so I usually don't write comments. I just want to tell you that you are just a wonderful person and we love you very much. You have no idea what an impact you have on us, what a big part of our lives you have become.

That translated beautifully. Lovely and kind message. Very well said.
I am from Moscow too. But I speak English and love this channel for it’s content.
Отлично сказано! Я тоже из России. Неожиданно и приятно видеть здесь русских подписчиков)
I'm also Russian 👋🏻 and I'm so in love with your content, Elise! You are such a beautiful and inspiring person, you bring warmth and coziness to the world and people around 🌱 I wish you strength and kindness to yourself in those tough times. We love you 💗
Hi Katya
Thank you so much for this amazingly kindhearted comment! 🥰🥰
Lots of love from this grandma who unfortunately knows what a broken heart feels like. But we are strong women and we will survive. We always do ! Love you sweet girl. Greetings from the Netherlands
Dear Élise (I love your French first name), I am a 67 year old lady and I have had several very painful breakups in my life. When you are in it, you believe that it will never end, but life is generous and there is always an end and a cure.
Thankfully, it's only in books and movies that grief is eternal! There will still be happiness for you, I promise you. In the meantime, you do what you have to: take care of yourself, take refuge in creativity and in your pretty cottage.

Life is generous. We must look with appreciative eyes.

Sending you love, light and joy this Christmas season.
True
The older I get, the happier I see people's true character sooner than later, so I don't waste too much of time that I will never get back. This will hurt for now, but time is on your side to create a happier story. Btw, the opening scenery with the walkway and hedges is beautiful.
so true i feel the same 🧡
So true. Time is short and don't allow anybody to waste yours! Oh how I wish I had learned that lesson early in life!
Girl. You take care of you. We- your audience, fans, etc - of course curious and concerned, but it’s your life. You deserve to be able to keep it private and not be pushed into transparency. You provide beautiful videos with all the cozy vibes. Just take care of you and the rest will fall into place. ❤
So sorry to hear how tough things for you have been lately. Take all the time you need to heal. We’ll (your TH-cam family) be here for you when you are ready. I hope you are able to spend some good quality time with your friends and family for the holidays coming up. And make sure to treat yourself because you deserve it. Sending lots of healing vibes and love your way. 🫶💛
My Da always taught me that when something awful happened in my life and things went wrong for me, it was fate making way for something wonderful to come in; and that if the thing I thought I wanted had happened, then maybe the more beautiful thing could not. Know that you are loved and respected and cherished. xoxo
❤
beautiful and true!
I love that, thank you for sharing xx
Amen
You get to write a brand new book. Blank pages, and it can be ANYTHING you want it to be. Story of your life. Love ❤️ you.
They had hitched a ride to your beautiful light and tried to drain you. Stop now breathe, feel your hands and feet wriggle your toes be in this present 🎁 moment now. Cut the cord to those that no longer match your vibration. You have so much light and joy to share. It’s good to be real. Love yourself from the inside its the only path to true joy and peace💗
I don't know why but I had a bad feeling about you rehoming luna, the new boyfriend & leaving your apartment!! I hope you begin to put things back together, the only thing I would ever say is dont give up your pets or home for any man....
Oh, my heart goes out to you! You are so clearly on the edge of breaking down in tears.. I have been there, where your emotions sit right in your throat and threaten to explode out at any moment. You will get past this.. as painful as this experience is, it is teaching you an incredible lesson. That you are far stronger than you realise, and that your life will be better than you ever imagined, because you can rebuild and rely on yourself no matter what happens to you. You are beautiful, and strong, and you will be happy again, and it will be YOUR doing. Sending all the love in the world ❤
Thank you so much! 🥰
Broken hearts, like broken bones, take time to heal. You are right in letting your loved ones know you’re hurting so that they can give you the extra love and support they want to give you. The fact you were able to go and decorate your cottage shows you are already on the mend, even if you forced yourself. Love you 😘 🤗 🌹
They call them growing pains because out of it, you will definitely grow and learn . Learn mostly about yourself and what a gift that is! Blessings dear one 🤍
A few years ago I was in a bad situation, where I had to move quite suddenly and because of that I ended up in a horrible rental flat. I hated every moment of living there. I've got anxiety because I thought I was tough and I tried to keep it all inside. So I think you are doing it the right way, don't follow my mistake, be honest to yourself, to others. Also take your time, we are here, waiting for you to return. ❤
Dear Susy, that is some great sound advice!! This time of the year sucks to be looking for a new apartment and worst time of year to lose a loved one 💔 😔 (relationship or loss of loved family member) I'm just thankful our Sweet Elise is financially able too handle this kind of heartache!! 🙏
Elise, I'm proud of your efforts to be both busy and healing. I just lost my sweet, beautiful dog, Lola, a few days ago; so I understand how a broken heart can color the festive season. Give yourself time. Surround yourself with those who love you. Don't give up. And, remember that those of us who watch you understand. We are here to lift you up whenever you can barely hold up your head. The internet isn't all trolls. We love you and are here to lean on if you need us. ❤️
So sorry to hear about your beautiful Lola. 💕
Sandy, thank you so much. I miss her terribly. Your kindness is very appreciated.
@Divahill, I am so sorry for your loss..furbabies leave a hole in our hearts. She will always be with you. 💔🐶
@@carriematthews7991 Thank you, Carrie. She definitely left a paw print on my heart.
May your memories of Lola comfort you during this sad time.
😢 I was so hoping I would see you beautiful face and spirit again in December. I just knew it was not going well for you BUT it will get better now since you are taking steps to follow the path you know is best for you. We love you.
Can i just say the comment section on this video is just amazing. I screen shotted so many amazing pieces of encouragement and advice for when I need it. You have such a beautiful community here Elise 💛 the goodness and light in you has attracted beauty and light that is in others and it’s wonderful 💛
Sending a big deep soul healing hug to you, Elise.
Just a gentle reminder to anyone open to it: life is full of all types of changes and emotions, some may feel bad, some may feel good, but our worth never fluctuates nor changes with them. We are always worthy of the very best! Much love to you!
My dreams were crushed again for the second time. Stay busy, adapt, keep moving with projects so you don’t dwell on the bad. Always have projects lined up.
There's such a twinkle in your eye while you're at the cottage, it's wonderful to see it again Elise, it's been missed... it'll soon be the New Year and all the magical adventures it'll bring await you still.. May you have a truly beautiful festive season with your family 🎄 xxx
Elise, do you know that you inspire your subscribers? You've got me stringing up fairy lights and rocking my inner hippie. I'm about to go out and buy my granddaughter a beret. She's a real beauty like you. What I'm trying to say is, you hang in there dear. You're a girl to shout from the rooftops for; and don't let anybody tell you otherwise. Merry Christmas from Sault Ste Marie, Canada.
Gosh I’ve been waiting for an upload. You sweet girl❤2023 is going to be so much better because you have learnt valuable lessons this year. The cottage looks amazing.
The comments are so heart warming and beautiful this time. Love and light to you all ❤
Your little cottage is beautiful…just like you! Putting up all those lights was a HUGE job…you persevered through it. You are so wise …knowing that now you’re hurting but it WILL get better in time. No one needs to know what happened because it is clear that you are a kind, honest person. Proverbs in the Bible talks a lot about God’s looking out for the kind, prudent people who want to “ do right” . Well, you are certainly beautiful on the outside but far more important is how beautiful you are on the inside.🥰
Sending you all the love and light your little body can handle 😘
IT WAS GOOD DECISION ELISE.
TRUST ME. 🥰
I just had my baby last dec 1 and named her Elisse after you (changed the spelling a bit) 😊
I really love how laidback and chill your videos are and had been binge watching your videos since I was pregnant. Hopeful that this heartbreak will only make you stronger and wiser.
Beautiful name, I love it. Class and femininity for your baby girl
Your cottage and garden always puts a smile on my face . The lights are magical. Nature is a great healer and so is giving yourself time and space.
I feel your pain my brother passed a few months ago and yesterday my beloved sister passed its hard to be cheerful this Christmas.
We missed you so much, Elise. Everyday I looked for one of your wonderful videos. So glad you are back. Remember that this too shall pass.
Aww thank you, and thank you for being here!
Hang in there Elise! ! I hope that things get better for you.
Know how you are feeling, have been there myself many years ago but it's something you never forget. A rotten time of year for this to happen to you but what is meant to be will be and you'll be the stronger person for it at the end of the day, believe me. It won't feel like it at the moment but you'll get there. Take care of yourself and be with people who love you for you.
Love and hugs to you my dear. Heartaches take time to heal, but will...This too shall pass. You are beautiful inside and out. I am praying for you and healing.
Elise, you're loved, you're valuable, and you're valid. I'm sending you a hug.
Peace and love, Elise. I hope your heart heals soon. 💛✨
I'm so sorry ! I understand completely. I am going through a prolonged breakup. I have been with someone for 12 years, supported him in every way including monetarily while he tried to figure out what to do in life. The entire time he hasn't worked more than a few months. I got told in early November that he is leaving me and moving to Australia to be with internet friends who support and understand him. I am past stunned, shocked, confused and heartbroken and now I'm just mad. All I can say is I'll be glad when he's gone so I can try to pick up the pieces and start over. My heart goes out to you. Take care.
Fairy lights make everything better. Take your time to heal and we will be here for you when you feel well enough to create content. Holiday Blessings xx
I am delighted to see your name in my feed this morning. I have been thinking of you during this time as I can relate in ways. My life changed full circle one day this past October and the adjustment and healing has been difficult. We must focus on US ourselves going forward and listen to our hearts 💕 find peace and happiness in the things that bring us joy
Dear Elise, I'm so so impressed by how authentic you are and I think most of us here understand that you share when you're ready to - don't feel pressured, it sounds like you're dealing with a lot as it is. I'm going through a heartbreak, it's been almost 4 months now, and I have been so hard on myself thinking I'd have to be over it by now, not giving myself the time I need to fully feel everything and then let it go. I've read something the other day and related so much with it - "to avoid spending so much time feeling upset, offended, or annoyed, remind yourself to stop taking things personally. The things people do and think has everything to do with them and nothing to do with you. You are only in control of your reaction, not their perspective." I don't know how much you can relate to it right now, but I wish you alllll the strength to go through this and hope you stay strong no matter how hard it might seem
I was so happy to see your sweet precious self on You tube today....I have been and will continue to pray for you to have strength, knowledge and faith to overcome this bump in the road of life. I am an old granny of 78 yrs, and I have faced a lot of heartaches and losses, but my faith has always seen me through. You will grow stronger each day, don't dwell on the pass, it is gone forever, tomorrow has not come, today is the day we have control over.....your little cottage is magical, the lights give it the fairy touch of Elise...you are quite special . Good things come to those who wait...Blessings sweet girl.
Everything you touch turns magical!! It hurts me to see you hurting. Remember always you are loved and loveable. The number one thing that helped my last break up was this : loving myself. Every time I felt hurt or thinking how I still loved him I would remind myself: I love myself MORE. Actively keep doing the things that bring you joy, such as you did today.
Absolutely! You must love yourself and protect yourself-so true!
You are such a brave women. You are strong. You are an inspiration. You are respectful towards the people who caused your heartbreak. You act with integrity. I am so proud of how you handle your painful situation. You are in my prayers. Hannah from South Africa
You don't have to explain anything, don't worry. It takes times, but everything will get better. Love you ❤️
Wishing you all the best Elise. You'll get through this. I'm going through a lot of heartbreak myself. In July my fiance and I split after 9.5 years because we wanted different things in life. It absolutely broke my heart, but I do wish him well and hope he gets what he wants and needs in life. I also wish that for myself, and for you Elise. We can and will get through this. One day at a time.
You’ve been on my mind these past few weeks Elise. Sending love and best wishes to you 💕
Thank you
i also am going through a breakup and it ended around the same time as yours, reading all these comments really helps :D
omg my heart goes out to you!!! wishing you the best!
😢 I’m so sorry love. We all hurt.
You may feel like you're barely standing but you're doing it, my love, every day. There's not many times in life that we get to completely reset and whilst I know it's so hard right now, take this time to look after yourself and live your life for you. You're an incredible young woman, Elise, and you're going to do so many great things. ❤
Beautiful girl, your cottage looks sooo beautiful with the icicle lights glittering. You pack folks orders in such a wonderful way - they will be so thrilled to open them - the clothes look fab and glitz, and your wrapping is just divine, done with love. Thank you for sharing your feelings on a broken heart - which you are suffering right now - You are a beautiful soul, as well as stunning looking, so my wish for you, is that you find a special someone again, to fill your heart with joy. Good Luck in your lovely boutique. Love and hugs from a freezing Devon, England. xxx
I recently rediscovered your channel after not following you for a couple of months… and I am really sorry to hear how life turned out for you lately. I am sure next year will be brighter because you’ve been through so much, and it’s always darkest before the dawn. I’ve been learning this lesson as well this year. I am happy to be back and to see how gracefully you’re handling your hardships. I wish the best for you and hope you will have a cozy and lighthearted Christmas!
Thank you so much
I'm so sorry Elise. My heart goes out to you sweetheart
You’ve been missed so much Elise, take the time you need, we will be here when you’re ready . sending love from NY ,be well , Merry Christmas ❤
I have really really missed you, this time of the year you used to do so much content, baking cookies, thrift shopping, decorating. I miss the Luna and the advent calendar. I wish you all the best, I send you a huge huge hug, you are so dear to me, I am 41 years old and I have so much to learn from you.
I'm so sorry to see you in pain. You are a beautiful person inside and out! Remember you are not alone you have a lot of people who care about you. It will get better hang in there. Wishing you happiness and peace now and forever. 🤩
I am also healing a broken heart this winter. Finding that my peace and happiness feel so much sweeter than the pain of a broken relationship, and there is still grief to be felt in the transition. Wishing you love and happiness, thank you for sharing your life with us
Yes, your response to hardship is inspiring and helpful! Thank you for showing us. Hope you feel better soon ☺❤🌷 Also, impressive installing the fairy lights. Beautiful ☺🌷🌿🐦🎉🦋❤
Love the lights, adds charm and warmth. Here’s to happier times. You are much appreciated by so many and we are all pulling for you.
Always remember - you can be by yourself or you can be with yourself! And what an awesome job of You being You! Peace sweet soul.
Christmas is a hard time to be going though anything difficult. I completely understand. One day at a time. One task at a time. It's okay to feel all the sad you need to as well. You just gotta keep on keeping on.... holding your head up as high as you can. I love your videos (and shop). I've watched you for years. You seem like such a kind person with a sweet soul. It will get better. 🖤 Just remember all the love out there for you 🙏I'm sure we would all give you a big hug if we could!
I've been thinking about you as your usually my daily December companion. I've recently chime out of a bad time myself and you're right, they don't last forever. I'm hoping yours ends soon! Be gentle to yourself in the meantime. Merry Christmas 🎄
Dearest Elise ❤❤❤ big hugs and love sent your way!
You deserve so much better then you were given this past year, but the best is yet to come! I had a feeling this was coming but I am still sorry to be correct. Take some time to heal your heart. Hugs & kisses from Texas.
I’ve missed you and I’ve worried about you. Stay strong and true to yourself. We love you!!!! We have your back!!!!
Much love from NC 🇺🇸
Hello Elise, sending lots of love, peace and happiness your way. You're doing the right thing by opening up and allowing yourself to go through the letting go process. It's never easy but it's another growing experience. Lots of love to everyone reading this. ✌️❤️🙏
I’m so glad to see you and that you are keeping busy and moving forward with your life. I’m 75( yikes…I know,that’s flipping old!) and I have been through a lot of stuff( would rather insert a BAD word here) in my life too. Each time that something would derail my life,I would just go back to work at my job and move forward, taking care of myself and my children. I’d just focus on having fun and moving forward. Looking back on it all, my life got better and better each time,though I never thought that would happen right away. People say “ things happen for a reason”and I always believed that it’s to free you up for something so much better! Elise… you are one of the most creative people I have ever seen! You have a phenomenal eye for fashion and you are superb at putting colors and outfits together! It’s good to see you focusing on your business and the cottage and just relaxing for a bit. Life has so much in store for you! 🎉❤💐PS…LOVE THE FAIRY LIGHTS!
Christmas 🎄 Lights on the cottage are magical….Sending You Love and Light and Abundant Blessings your way xoxo 😘
Stor kram. Önskar dig En God Jul och Ett Gott Nytt År
For some reason, even though I've been watching your content for many years, I felt you so close to my heart in this video.. I feel for you. Take care of yourself Elise and have a Merry Christmas 🎄
Elise I'm so sorry to hear you are going through difficult times, heartbreak is so incredibly painful. I've only recently found your channel through my love of clothes and could see that you have had a lot of change over the past few months, major changes like moving out of your apartment. Something you did because you had plans for your future with your partner, it must make it doubly hard after making such big changes in your life. I'm sure it won't feel like it for some time to come but it is for the best, time to write a new chapter full of new dreams and plans. You are young, beautiful and talented, you have the world at your feet, it's yours for the taking.
Be kind to yourself, surround yourself with friends and family, people who you can laugh and cry with and have lots of healing hugs. Take it slowly, everyday is a new beginning, a new page a new adventure. Adventures don't have to be big, a daily tiny adventure can be as simple as taking a walk in a new place, visiting a different town/gallery/shop/cafe or taking a hot picnic lunch to sit by a beautiful lake. Things to feed the soul, connect with nature, listen to music and put your hands over your heart and give yourself love, tell yourself that you love you. You will heal my lovely, I promise.
Much love to you from a 57 yr old who has had her heart broken and her dreams dashed many times over. Life goes on, paths change, people come and go in our lives, some people are meant to be in our lives for a lifetime and others just for a little while but they all have their part to play in shaping the people we are. I always examine difficult situations/relationships/events and look for what it/they are trying to teach me, we can learn from all experiences and take something positive away from it. Much like your clothes, our lives are woven from many coloured threads, the threads of our experiences, a beautiful rich tapestry.
I highly recommend this book - katherine-may.co.uk/wintering I read it last winter just before Christmas when I was feeling very low. Take good care of yourself. xx
My grandmother always told me never cry over a man....theres many fish in the sea.......they're not worth a moment of fret, as one is going out the back door many more will be lined up at the front door because you are special and beautiful.
Elise, Congratulations for taking back control of your life. I couldn’t watch your videos, lately they were so painful to watch with denial, untrue and secrets. Thank goodness you are protected yourself from an unhealthy lifestyle & unhealthy relationship. Honestly is the best policy, let’s hope you can live your best authentic life. I don’t think it’s healthy putting up videos and not posting the truth. It’s unfair to the viewers, and insults their intelligence. Wishing you the best 💐🇬🇧🎄
Wow your cottage is so Beautiful and so are you. Wishing you all the best getting through a hard time. Those twinkle lights make me so happy ❤
Me2
This was beautiful! I'm glad you're moving forward and making the best of the situation. I love seeing the footage of your little cabin and excited to see what you have planned for it❤️
Elise, I just wanted to say that your video today was one of the most beautiful--and quietly powerful-- that I've seen on youtube. So much unspoken feeling held in an exquisite, gentle silence. The hanging of lights around your cottage . . . and that gorgeous music that, for me, fit the whole tone perfectly. Yes, as someone commented, the music perhaps had deep sadness in it, but it felt also hugely affirming at the same time; so peaceful, uplifting yet serene. Yes! Thank you for sharing your wonderful creative self with others, when times feel right for you. As an old once-therapist, I feel you are following an innate knowing about how to heal. And spreading that with so much creativity, whether with or without words. Keep trusting your own heart, with its courage and sensitivity--for yourself and others.
Your comment said everything I was thinking and quite beautifully too. I agree that this is likely the most beautiful video I have ever seen on TH-cam.
Don’t forget to hit that like button Let’s help Elise’s algorithm! Blessings and love to you ALL from Canada ❤🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️
I've been there before. When I was a younger woman I had a breakup. I couldn't eat, every song I heard on the radio made me cry and if you ask me now about him, I'd say, I don't remember much about him. Time heals all wounds. Hang in there kiddo. I'm rooting for you.
I am so sorry for all the heartache you have been going through. I know that you will slowly heal and once again find your voice and then never let anyone take it from you again. You are an amazing young woman with so much inner strength. You will pull through and not only survive but thrive. Have a wonderful Christmas and may 2023 bring you so much joy and peace. Lots of love from far away South Africa
Thank you so much
One day at a time sweet darling. You will rise above this. I have had to do it three times in my 73 years. Take care of yourself and love yourself.
I know you will be stronger because of this. We stand by you. 💜
Thinking of you during this time. ❤
I’ve thought about you countless times the last couple of weeks. Life often kicks the stuffing out of us when we least expect it. During those times when I feel as if my poor heart can’t possibly continue to beat, like you I try so very hard to focus on the positive aspects of my life. I wish you all the joy and happiness your heart needs at the moment. Merry Christmas Elise.
It's a pleasure to have you back, Elise. Maybe it's not your best time, but everything will pass and It will make you stronger.
You're a creative, sensitive, hard-working and positive woman, and it's what keeps us here. ✊
I was so happy to see you again. Everything will be alright. I think all of us had a broken heart at some point in our lives and we all know it feels like the worst pain we will ever experience but we do make it through it. I wish the best for you and hope your sadness ends sooner rather than later.
Let me tell you how great it was to see you at the cottage. I truly mean it makes my heart feel warm
So cozy and whimsical. You are like a Fairy Princess when you are there. My thoughts are only positive for you and it will be ok.
Surrounding yourself with beauty and allowing your creativity to guide you, is the very best medicine. Your little cottage surely must feel like a warm hug from a close friend. It’s adorable and you created it.
Missed you Elise! So sorry that you are experiencing a tough time, but it will get better. Soon we will see you back on your feet and smiling! Much love from Cape Town South Africa
Your private life is yours to share or not :) You don't owe anyone an explanation. It seems like you've been through so much lately, I hope you have a restful and lovely holiday season with your family, please take care of yourself ♥
I love the colours in your little cottage, you have very good taste ! Sending you lots of love ❤❤
Elise, everything in life happens for a reason. When one door closes, another truly does open. I love that you are the kind of person who understands what you need to do to get over your broken heart! Love yourself because you are really a wonderful person and you deserve to enjoy all the wonderful moments of life whether with someone or just by your lovely self. Things do get better and you are doing what you need to heal. You are an inspiration and I hope the rest of your holiday is great and you have a terrific new year! Best from an older fan who has been through lots of life challenges.
I'm so sorry your going through this Elise. I have been thinking about you and hoping you are doing ok. It will be a slow process no doubt but you will get through it as the strong, independent woman you are. Big hugs 💕
I love the music that played while you strung up the Christmas lights. Such a big job, in the cold.
Oh, we love you Elise! It hurts to see you hurting. ❤ There are many of us thinking of you, sending loads of love, and praying for you too.
Elise, please don’t feel pressured to share every detail of your life. Be true to yourself. Love your content, I wish you well ❤️
Sending you healing vibes and a whole lot of love ❤ you will get through this and you will be stronger.
Being honest with yourself and others is always the best thing to do.
