    Sister Gretchen, I finally started my house and found out that you have to be a whole crazy person to do this. I thought about you the entire time but I'm up for the challenge I don't do social media and plan to figure out how to send you pictures, thanks for your dedication in helping us see something in everything we encounter, I'll keep you posted.

    These are so cute! I have been wiring my handmade lights for my walls and ceilings. These could also be wired for light, since beads have holes in the middles. I conquered soldering. The sky’s the limit for making lights when you know how to work with wire, solder and batteries.

    They are all so cute! 😍 I especially love the little brass cup. 🥰 When I was decorating a 1:24 scale dollhouse for my niece, I used a couple of translucent pony beads with paper-fastener "lids"- amber for a honey jar and yellow-green for a pickle jar. Your solid bead looks great as a cosmetic jar, and the other jars are so pretty! 😊 I am absolutely obsessed with making tiny jars and bottles out of beads- maybe my next project ought to be a cosmetics store! 😄

    Yea, Gretchen! I was just looking at some nice small bone beads I have and wondering what could I do with them, and now I know they are cold cream jars for my Madame (it's her self-given French title, so not the the business kind) who likes to be pampered. She is nothing like me but I humour her. Actually, Madame is still not existing visibly, as I made a version of her in a large scale 20 years ago but have not made the doll house scale evolved version yet. I work in an organic manner, not a linear one. Also as you can see, I don't work very fast either.

  • @dawsie
    @dawsie 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    As much as I liked the lamps, the constant footage going in and out of focus was just too much. The camera just had no idea on what it was meant to focus on half the time. Using auto focus when working with it that closely zoomed in needs to be at a fixed focus point to stop that from happening.
    Because you have it so closely focused on your work space, there was no need for you to put your hands so close to the Camera with items in them, just hold your hand steady away from the camera long enough for people to see them. You moved them into close to fast and just as the camera focused it was gone and so it went back to a fuzzy picture.
    I only say this because my brain has a problem where things like that causes headaches right behind the eyes, in my youth I was prone to fits where I blacked out, thankfully I grew out of them, but in its place certain movements and actions cause these headaches instead. I can’t be the only one who has this issue, anyone who suffers from vertigo would also be suffering with feeling sick because of this.
    Please to others don’t jump up and down because of what I said with practise of controlling the camera focusing will improve the video footage and that leaded to more views in the long run.
    I have been coming and going watching Gretchen’s videos for a long time and never said anything but this is an ongoing issue which is why I stop viewing her videos for a while with the hope maybe next time it will be better.
