Thanks for watching 😊

I love, love, love your soda can videos, it was my primary reason for following you. I like both step by step projects and fast projects. I am not keen on live steam videos personally, they tend to be too long with unnecessary chit chat (but that is just my personal view obviously), but I would be interested in your craft show experiences. The community idea for sharing projects could be interesting as well. Hope this helps.

You are brave and so authentic and inclusive! I like all the tutorials, but probably the aluminum cans ones the best. I don't drink a lot of soda myself, but it is pretty easy to find friends ands and coworkers who are willing to share their trash with me. It also makes me tell them what I am doing and has sometimes inspired them to be creative themselves - or at least more conscious of how much waste they are a part of. I believe in the upcycling community, so anything you do to encourage it is great. Not sure what I mean by this either, but Upcycle Design Lab and all you have created so far and the community you have already reached IS bigger than a KZread channel and could easily exist outside that space and do more and more!

I am here for the crafts. I like them all, from how to's, to fast projects. I would like to see more materials being upcycled, esp. plastic. I am not very interested in live streaming videos or seeing how your craft room is organized. I want to find things that I will enjoy making. I don't consider organizing my craft room to be fun at all. Your organized craft room will just make me feel guilty. LOL

I am a maker. I work with many materials and my focus is on recycled/reclaimed materials. My favorite part of your videos is that you have a different process than I have, you approach things differently and you often work with materials that are also different. Watching you do whatever you choose stretches my brain and improves my process. I appreciate you asking your your viewers what they want though I could not have imagined ever coming up with cardboard tool picture frames on my own. I look forward to seeing more of your journey and I feel watching you helps me grow as an artist, whatever you choose to make :)

I only joined your list a few days ago. I found it because my primary interest is fused glass. But I also like the upcycle ideas. I'm all for items finding a new purpose instead of going directly to a landfill! And I am an old environmentalist type :) Thank you for the ideas!

It is a brave thing to do, to film yourself, and upload videos. I haven't done that myself. But maybe one day. I feel everyone should and is responsible for being good parents of our planet. Littering is a humongous pet peeve of mine. It is such a shame. I've worked in the environmental industry, and I've seen up close the results of neglect. I enjoy your projects, no matter the material. I've been saving up aluminum cans and glass for over a year now. Some of my favorite cans are from the Poppi brand of drinks. Very pretty colors. And low sugar. I'm interested in the cat litter box cover, and possibly a way to highlight or share ideas or photos from viewers about what they see that is interesting/new or something they have done on their own. I'm not a FB fan myself, I do not even use that anymore. Not in over a year. I think you are doing a great job, just being yourself and wanting to expand on your ideas and creativity. I've been a fan since I came across your project upcycling the wedding dress. It's still one of the coolest things I've ever seen done. Very pretty. I'm also interested in your craft booth set up and what your best sellers are. I like windchimes and am working on upcycling in that area, also starting into the microwave glass fusion.

I like the detailed tuts.

Thank you for all the time you devote to your craft and for sharing your content. I am not a jewlery person but enjoy seeing you make jewlery pieces. I do not work with cans as I don't have access to them but again I enjoy watching you and admire your talent. You mentioned textiles. Perhaps recycling fabric onto canvas into pictures. I am not a live streamer. I have watched tutorials where the person does an intro but then shows the project being made and does a voice over, describing the steps. The ending is showing the final project explaining any additions or changes not shown. I have no idea but perhaps this could cut down on editing. Whatever your content I will continue to watch and appreciatiate your creativity. Best of luck!

Hi Catherine thanks for all the feedback, ideas and for watching my videos. 🙂

Do whatever videos you want. Congrats on pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Mix it up, length, depth, materials, etc. I find your projects refreshingly different from other folks'. Not interested in Livestream, vlog, that sort of thing. For community, you might want to move your website to FourthWall, they integrate KZread and e-commerce with memberships, etc. And they have great customer support and as new features all the time. I aim to start a crafting channel in the next few months, heavy into reclaimed and repurposed. I'd like to see what other things you've done, maybe every now and then do a "gallery of past crafts" kind of thing. Also, you can do ceramics in your microwave kiln, just be sure they are fully dehydrated first, else they shatter. Maybe do some mixed materials projects, some metal, paper, fabric, plastic, all mixed up. Keep it coming!

Reusing & recycling is so very important. This was a terrific video. I think it’s very brave to put yourself out there; out here, as you do. I enjoy your style & personality.

I make planters out of feta cheese tins & olive oil tins ( I live in Greece) and decoupage them using paper, napkins and my favorite, thin cotton sari fabric from India. Maybe you could show us other ideas? I want to cut out designs from these tins to make lights to put a few candles inside but I don’t know how to. Especially with out having to buy a blow torch! Another thing using soda can sheets, maybe you could do a few projects on using aluminium sheets with a die cutting machine? I have an ancient Cuttlebug that I use.

Thank you Cindy. I have only watched a few of yours. The one recently was top 10 of your most selling up-cycle crafts. The first one was the fused crafts and jewelry that had me intrigued from the start. Your tin can earnings were amazing along with the aluminum beads. Oh and loved the dragon flies and the video was very informative. I am not new to crafting but it has been about 30 years since I did any real crafting. Now that I am old I am stock piling tools and inventory to get back into crafts after I retire. I love all crafts and your ideas and crafts are very unique and creative on repurposing used day to day items. I like a channel that has a artist that loves to craft. You can only plan so much things will happen and its nice to see when they do. I like to watch the step by step process the most but not a deal breaker. I would really like to see more fused glass tutorials what to do and not to do. Love the aluminum beads and like to see more. really anything. I wouldn't worry so much about live streams. Do them when you are read I am sure it will get easier with time. For me right now its hard to catch a live stream but once I get into crafting I think I would enjoy them more. Also I think when you build up your fan base doing a live stream would be like talking to family. LOL You are braver than me to have done what you are doing than me. Great job and can't wait to see what you come up with. I would like to be a part of a small group of crafty people to bond with. As long as all of it is fun and you love what you are doing with other like mind individuals.

Thanks so much for all your feedback. I would like to do more fused glass projects too. The microwave kiln is a fun little tool but it is quite small so it is a little limiting. Happy retirement. I hope it isn't too far away if you would rather be crafting that is. 🙂

Love your videos/tutorials. I do not have any type of printer or a Cricket, if that’s what it is called. Everything I do is done by my shaky hands. Love the soda cans. I’ve saved & cut a few of them, readying them for a project. Any other recycling I’d be interested in. Plastics, textiles. ( I don’t have a sewing machine either). I’ll have to search and find your other soda can videos. A counter top? Yikes! You’re amazing. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

Maybe vids on using bits & pcs of wood. As you say there are many vids on painting furniture. Vids like what to do with old chair legs. And how about Christmas bauble tuts?

I actually like all your videos-tutorials, craft show experience etc. Any materials you use to recycle/upcycle is fine with me. I am especially interested in the glass fusing videos! I work with genuine sea glass and sometimes may break or crack pieces. Rather than just throwing them away,I would like to be able to use them in glass fusing, so they don't get wasted! Thank you!

I enjoy everything you film because it's so different from the things I generally do, but not something couldn't consider doing, and I like both short form and detailed tutorials. The only opinion I have is that I don't like livestream shows, they just don't fit with my viewing style.

Dear lady, I LOVE your aluminium projects but I also like when you teach us how to make supplies at home. I just watched your vid on making water proof mod podge, brilliant. I would like you to focus as much as possible on reuse waste. Also on making things without having to go buy lots of supplies. I like your fused glass but one needs to buy that microwave fuser.machine! Another thing I like about your channel is that you aren’t hoking name brand supplies. I live in Europe and we can’t get most of the name brand supplies that Americans can. And yes, of course we can order on Amazon but with the cost of the item, the shipping and now customs duties…just impossible. So I like that you don’t hoke many things. That said, I did buy that tin opener that takes the very top off of cans…excellent. I got mine direct from China for €2.50, something like that. So thank you for that. Back on topic! I would like to see some plastic projects as well. I eat lots of yogurt and have many 1litre containers that I store supplies, beads in. You are so creative that I’m certain you can come up with ways that we wouldn’t think of to re-use plastics. How about projects using toilet rolls? I work mostly with paper. There is a Turkish man on You Tube who makes fantastic decor with toilet rolls. All said, I like your channel just the way it is. I like the Simple, clear way you speak & no annoying music,, just everything about your channel. Ok, I will continue listening to the rest of this vid & comment further as you go.☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️

Thanks so much for all your feedback and ideas. It's fun for me to hear from international viewers. It can be a little problematic when it comes to the tools and supplies as I know some items aren't readily available. All the best Cindy 🙂

BTW-I think all your video ideas are great, I’d watch all of them. I always love the idea of livestreams, but I’m generally horrible at actually getting to the livestream at the right time.
