Social Media and Crafting

So I am coming up on a year of social media crafting.  I feel like it has given me more purpose in my crafting.  Normally it was like I made something that took hours and show my husband and he would say "that's nice" type of comment.  Then I may snap a photo and put it on my personal facebook page.  But with crafting on social media its awesome.  I get more feed back.  I get questions on my creations.  I get to meet new people from all over the world, not just at my local scrapbooking store.  Which I love going to that as well.  I do think that with social media crafting I have increased my spending.  I am not sure if it is from the need to impress, the constant sea of inspiration and advertising of etsy shops on IG (instagram), or if its because I found my "tribe."  I do think they may all be true.  I want to show people the newest stuff and how I am using it.  I feel like I see ads and deals all over IG 24/7.  Not knocking that I use my IG to advertise my etsy as well.  Its free to advertise so why not?? And lastly (a word I hate), I have found my "tribe." I have quite a few followers and I follow most of them back.  It gets hard to remember everyone, but I do have I would say my top 10 that I constantly interact with and socialize with.  Some of these girls I consider really good friends.  I enjoy the happy mail aspect as well of my new friends.  I do know that some girls can get catty on social media and I just do my best to stay out of the drama and delete/block anyone who does.  Youtube is a little different than IG.  It has a dislike button...I dislike that button lol.  I have seen people dislike my friends' youtube videos and I don't understand what they could have possibly not liked.  I get that if what they did or I did is not your style you don't care for it, but then just click off as Larua's life would say.  My hubby says those people that use that button don't usually even have a channel.  Youtube does allow you to see if it was a subscriber or not and where they were from.  Anyway, what I love about youtube is the comments and requests for future videos.  I even did my first collab with another youtuber.  I really enjoy that community as well.  I watch a ton of videos and some are just really inspiring!! I feel I spend more time watching youtube than I do watching netflix! I use my twitter but I don't feel like I have found a group I fit in there.  I also enjoy the planner groups on facebook.  I don't care for the strict ones haha.  Some have so many rules you constantly see people say in their post to take their post down if this violates this page.  That is just sad!  I am an admin of the Heidi Swapp Memory Planners and we are so not strict!  People post hauls, pages, complaints, planner stuff for sale, planner videos, and we love it all!  Well  I think I will sign off here so I can go film another plan with me.
