So what’s this new YouTube Membership thing all about?
It’s a fun, optional way to get even more crafting content, perks, and behind-the-scenes fun!
You are so creative and generous! I love just looking at all the possibilities.
Connie, I love all your weekly demo videos, and the print off. I run a craft session each Wednesday for ladies of a certain age. And sometimes I use your creations for them to have a go at.
I also love it when things don’t quite go right. As that’s me showing my ladies how to produce something, most weeks. I’m a hot mess too! 😂
Thank you so much for all your wonderful demo, and print offs.
Hi to Brenda too.
