Sherrie Clark. thank you so much for your fabulous tutorials. My friend and I coordinate our crafting by watching your together by phone. You have brought us much joy in these dark times and we so appreciate your willingness to share your wonderful ideas. Thank you for sharing your feelings as I have felt some days what is the point and then we watch you and accomplish so many endearing projects. So please continue to share so we can be uplifted together.

Natasha, I know what you mean about keeping yourself busy during these trying times, if I wasn’t busy making masks for anyone who needs them, I would definitely be making my journals. I think staying busy and making something that is beautiful, or doing something that gives you joy, helps keep the blues away. I have had so many people ask for masks that I am busy from sunup to sundown, and there have been a lot of sleepless nights trying to make enough masks for the ones who have requested them. I had made a ton of little fabric stuffed bunnies for my grand kids Easter baskets but I don’t feel comfortable sending them in the mail now, so I just put them in a basket with a sign that says “ These bunnies need a good home” so when people come to pick up their masks, they can choose a cute bunny to take home with them. Everyone has really enjoyed them so far.

"Where's her legs?..." 😂 I agree, she needed her legs. Thanks for the great ideas and sharing your feelings about the effects of being in lockdown. The wave of trying to stay positive versus anxiety versus "what's the point" is spot on for many. I'm near New Orleans, USA and riding that wave too. When you feel like "what's the point" remind yourself that you are providing a valuable source of therapy for people all around the world! Stay well!

Sending you big hugs 🤗. One day at a time. The struggle is real. Don’t give up crafting and creating because for people like us, it feeds our souls. Also be kind to yourself. Who would have ever thought the entire world would ever need to be in quarantine! Not I, and I’ll be 64 this year.
Love what you did. Gave me some ideas! 🤗

I always look forward to your videos. I love hearing your accent and your actual conversation. I love how you give us a blow by blow of how your mind is processing whatever it is you are working on. That is soooo helpful! Also, don't forget we may not know what tomorrow brings, but we can know the One who holds our hand through it all. This too shall pass! You're a beautiful soul and it comes through.🧡

[cindyhenry]

Oh I was so saddened to hear you are down 🙁. I so love your videos and the beautiful things you make! Please know there are many here that really appreciate the terrific crafting that is presented on YouTube and your tutorials are some of the best I’ve seen! I just want to say thank you for all that you do ❤️

I often feel very similar to how you feel. Originally I come from Poland and I have never been through as extreme ordeal as you have but it was hard. For some reason what is happening here, now brings the memories back. I think its the uncertainty of the future and the police state we seem to be experiencing, plus many other things connected to this situation. Sometimes I'm down, other times I'm up but its like living in constant anxiety. I know most of us feel the same. Crafting is great and it does help, so let's be crafty and arty as much as we can on any given day. And if we take a day off that's OK too. Lots of hugs.

I hope you continue your artful inspiring videos that motivate me each time I watch them. I have severe back pain and I only can work at my art desk for sometimes only 20 minutes anymore. I still try though because what you do helps me believe that I can at least do one and sometimes more than one. You are very gifted and we, your viewers, are all better because of that gift you so freely share with us. Thank you. Also, know that this pandemic will end and you have helped many of us be distracted for a few minutes with each of your YouTube videos. 😊

Perfectionism is one thing that sets your work apart. "God is in the details.", as they say. I want to say also how I appreciate that you take the time to edit and fast forward through the repetitive parts. Also...just to say...What keeps me from the tyranny of an uncertain future is to trust a Creator who shelters us under His wings. Such a beautiful picture. Blessings to you, dear Natasa.

[PeaceNOTwar]

Love everything you make Natasa. You are my inspiration. Keep your chin up because you help us to get through these trying times. I’m a perfectionist too lol..Love and hugs from Tassie xxx 🧡🌸💚🥰

These are just lovely! It's a great way to create, spend some time in the moment, plan and dream of a better day, and pretty soon you have a nice pile of pretty pieces to use in a variety of ways. You are a precious soul, Natasha, and when asking yourself, "what's the point?", you answer it by saying that it brings you joy. That should be all the reason you need. Plus WE need you to create these great things to inspire us to do more and spread the joy!❤❤❤

[jonigiarratano]

[mrsdscraftdesk]

We get the moods, really we do. Take strength in that- you are not alone in feeling that way. 🙏🏼❤️ Love the little girl story btw!

I am crazy over the moon for these! The lace was a great idea. I never would have thought of it. I didn’t go out much before either. I thought I would have no problem with staying in either. I have found, however, that in the last week and a half my emotions are up and down the charts. Thank God for my YouTube buddies. You are keeping us all sane. God bless. Stay safe. Shared to Pinterest, so others will find you.

I love each and every one of these Natasha! I've been feeling like you;it's getting to me now. I live in Michigan, USA, and we are the 3rd hardest hit in the country. Just yesterday we had 205 people die. My county being the worst. I can only look to God and pray. I very much look forward to your videos. I love ALL that you make, I like your voice (I find it soothing), I like your comments, suggestions...I just enjoy YOU. You bring a "comfortable visit" a time to look forward to, a happy spot. So thank you so, so, much! Yet don't think you can't be honest when you are down. We love and support you . You are perfect the way you are and brighter days are coming. We will be better women for this time. God bless you and your family!

Where in australis are you from I live in New York State. I was watching the fires. My heart ached! I cried and cried. Watching the koalas and kangaroos getting hurt. How did you do? I was mending my broken heart with the koalas, then china got the virus! Been a challenging year, to say the least..😔We’ll get through! I love these cards! I love all your journals. You put so much of yourself in them. It shows! I adore you, and your story. Thank you for giving us a peice of you 😘
