Hello and welcome to my channel : )

Here you will find mostly crafting related videos, tutorials, reviews and hauls but since August of 2014, I have also begun to share my journey and personal experience with Trigeminal Neuralgia and Anesthesia Dolorosa.

I am a lover of all things purple and I am truly married to my best friend who is also my biggest supporter and No.1 fan when it comes to my crafting. I have a wonderful son in his early 20's and a daughter still in high school and the momma to a very spoiled and super adorable mini dachshund named Bella. I started scrapbooking when I had my son and 21 years later a part time hobby has turned into a serious passion for me that is also a business. Thanks for stopping by my channel as my wish is to share my love of all things crafty & hopefully share & teach others and to learn new things myself along the way.

Have a great day!

Hi friends! I'm on the hunt for more of these vintage feed sacks that are made from various textiles such as canvas, flour sack, linen, cotton etc. I did forget to mention this in the IG reel, but I am also looking for vintage fabric coin bags from banks. I do have pics of those in case you've never seen them before. Please scroll down for the link to my reel on IG.

If you have any leads, please email me at purplecottagecrafts@gmail.com We can discuss the price/quantity via email, and of course, I will pay for shipping once an agreement on price is reached 😊

Thanks so much my friends and have a wonderful day πŸ€—πŸ’œ

Hi friends! I've been getting back into creating again since my last video. I'm currently working on some stuff for an upcoming vintage market I was asked to attend. I do plan on vlogging that day so you guys can see my setup etc. No, those aren't real eggs LOL. They're being covered in vintage laces/fabrics etc. I'm not filming this project as I'm working on it while in the house. It's pretty basic...just wrapping fabric/lace around the eggs.

I'm also working on some twine and vintage string mini carrots. I will have a video on these as I need to finish these off in the garage where my filming setup is located. I need to "Abby them up" a bit more lol. They're from the Dollar Tree, or should I say the $1.25 tree lol. I put a base coat of paint to hide the bright orange, and them wrapped them with what I mentioned above. I'm also removing the crepe paper tops and using something different.

I have been stitching of course and I'm filming that project as well.

It's been cold and snowy here, so I've just felt like working in the house for now.

Thanks so much for always being so supportive of me and my channel. I'll be back to uploading videos soon.

Miss you guys πŸ˜˜πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

Hi Friends! So today, I was going to film the flop through for each of the vintage postcard journals...but mother nature had other plans lol. We are having a major windstorm while it's snowing. So it is super loud in the garage where I'm temporarily setup, due to the wind.

***MY WINDOWS ARE NOT DIRTY...ITS ICE AND SNOW ON THE WINDOWS*** 😁

So...the plan is to try again tomorrow. Once I get each of them filmed, I can put them up on my website. I'll post here when I've done that. In the meantime, you can check out the tutorial I uploaded this morning, taking you step by step on how I put them together.

Have a wonderful day my friends 😊 πŸ’œ
