Hello, sweet friends!
I just wanted to take a moment to give you all a little update & share a heartfelt thank you from the past few months! First of all, I just want to say that Cedar & I are both well and okay! As many of you know if you saw my post in October, I needed to take a step back from my creative work for a while to find time to heal & find myself again after some unexpected personal challenges. These past 4 months have been so healing for me and while they have been full of a whirlwind of emotions & changes, taking time away was just so necessary for me to process & begin to feel okay again. 🤎
So many of you have commented and reached out in different ways all with messages of love, support & encouragement and they have meant more to me than words could ever express. They have allowed me to feel at peace and able to really embrace this time in the ways I've needed to & I am just so grateful to you all who have stuck around & believe in me! I am definitely feeling more and more ready to begin getting back into creative work and am hoping to make my first new video in March! I can't wait to get back to doing what I love & what truly fills my soul with utter joy, inspiration & feelings of magic. And of course I can't wait to continue on this journey with all of you!
Wishing you all so much Love & Light,
Randi
Hello, November fairies!
I am still taking my break from YouTube/making videos but I did just want to pop on here and share that today is Small Business Saturday! If you are at all interested, for this weekend I wanted to open up my secret patron shop to anyone & everyone for this weekend only! Until midnight tomorrow (11/26) you can enter the secret patron shop and browse past happy mail prints & stickers! I also curated some fun print sets & sticker sets that save you a little money too & could be cute gift ideas (see the attached pictures). My regular shop is also open though it is currently limited to holiday items right now as I am still navigating moving & some other personal changes in my life. There you can find my 2024 Calendars, Holiday Cards, and Christmas Ornaments! You can click here to check it all out: www.randilynnreed.com/
I just wanted to say thank you SO much for your continued support & encouragement in my much needed little hiatus! It really means more than words can express during this time! 🤎
I continue to wish you light, love, & of course a little bit of magic!
Randi
Hi Friends,
It's been a while. I just wanted to come on here and officially share with you that I need to take a step back from YouTube for a little while. Something very unexpected happened back in September and it's something that is going to take a while to process and work through and I wouldn't be able to share genuine, authentic videos with you as I just need to re-find myself again. I am not sure when I will be back with new videos, but I do know that I will be back! Video creation is something I love so much and is such a therapeutic creative expression for me & truly a joy to share with you all. So while I don't know how long this break will be, do know that I will be back! The timing of all this was less than ideal as I had such high hopes for this season and time of year. But sometimes bumps in the road happen, especially when you least expect them, and you need to change course and figure out how to move forward again. I want thank you so much for your support & encouragement as always for my channel! It really means so much to me. I am wishing you all a continued wonderful & magical autumn season!
With love & light,
Randi

A little update on what's coming! 🍁
Hello, my friends! I am going on a very fun adventure to France for the first 2 weeks of September! I have been working hard all month to ensure that all the autumn coziness will still come on this channel even while I am away! I will not be able to premiere my videos while I am gone, but I have them scheduled to upload at my normal time of 11:00am PST for the first 3 Fridays of September! So much autumn goodness to look forward too! 🍂
I will catch up on comments when I return back to work on the 18th! I hope you will enjoy!
Wishing you a wonderful week ahead & a magical start to September! 🤎
With love & light,
Randi

Hi Friends!
Last week was so beautiful that I filmed so much footage I was actually able to edit two YouTube videos! I can't decide which one I want to share & premiere tomorrow and the other I will post as a bonus video next week (without a premiere). Which one would you rather see first? ✨
Thank you so much for helping me decide!
With love & light,
Randi
