Somehow my TV chose your channel while I was playing with my cat... I became mesmerized by your clever projects and had to tell you how much I admire your talent. I'm a whole lot older .. my days of macrame and even cooking are no longer possible as I am crippled, but I do have a lot of fun doing art stuff.. mostly colored pencils. You remind me of the wonderful days when I was young and didn't have as much money as I wanted but had a great time canning, gardening, decoupage embroidering, baking...60's stuff.. 111And of course flirting and learning how to look sexy on a budget. I got married s lot too..:)..a really fun project I did was to paint a personalized monopoly tabletop.. portable naming the properties for people in the news or relatives...cated it with clear hard decoupage . You're so pretty and smart. I just want to tell you that you're really talented and beautiful and kind.. sharing all your fun with the world is a blessing for everyone. I'm sure you are so loved... Write a book.. at least one.. love Marcia in Modesto

[@kayeyeager8006]

May I ask what you do with colored pencils?

[@marlyngullett5205]

Miss Marcia, please remember that disability is NOT an inability!! Have faith in yourself, we may not be able to do what we used to do but baby we're still kicking 😃

[@peanutbutterandjelly1609]

@HerMagestyQueenMarcia First of all you live in my favorite state. California is so beautiful. You sound like you are a fun lady. I don’t think any of our lives turn out precisely how we may have envisioned them to be but that doesn’t mean they aren’t still wonderful. You should try journaling your life story. It really helps me to journal. Anyhow, I wish you good health and real joy ❤😊

All these ideas are super cute. It would be economical for someone like me who keeps a lot of crafting supplies on hand However, For someone who doesn't, by the time you purchase command strips, lighting pucks and spray paint in various colors, you might as well buy the product. A good example is the sconce.

[@maggiemoonpie2168]

But where's the fun in that?

[@wendyaminzadeh2165]

It's fun to make things..

[@janpeterson21]

Here’s my trick for twine ends so they don’t fray when beading. Put a drop of white glue on the end and then roll it back and forth between your fingers. It creates a nice point and the glue dries fairly quickly. Love all your ideas! Your crafts look very high end and trendy. Thanks!

[@EmESmith-est1996]

Marbling with tub of water and spray paint is magic. Love it!

The light for the wall is genius and I am making that for my new house.

[@BumblingBee-xm4dy]

22:40 this just gave me am idea on how to measure leftover yarn…. Use a metal drywall ruler that is one yard in length (drywall rulers are wider than traditional yardsticks) and wrap as you did, then I’ll know how many yards i have left of a particular yarn so i can easily label them, girl you just dont even realize how much you inspire people!

[@dawnburke9359]

I love everyone of your ideas, and I love reading the comments where people give tidbits of information to help you and to help all of us to make each project that much more perfect!

[@tonimcelveen1015]

My favorite is the wall art you made with the hexagon things.

[@shundrayoung3671]

The nautical canvas wall hangings are great I'm thinking of elevating them with black picture frames on top and bottom with black and white photos and stencil painting black words on the middle such as Family and Love or Laughter

[@Angel1969]

I love that you can do ideas that are less in price than what you can get in higher price stores and they don’t look like themselves

Wow! The wall sconce should get an award. That's absolutely amazing. I was at a thrift store the other day and saw these bamboo woven type placemats and thought what can I do with these and I couldn't think of anything at the moment so I put them back down but wow!

[@pamgibson4508]

The only problem i seen in them is turning them on& off with them being stuck with poster stick it to the wall.

[@aprilvalleyvamp1334]

I've found that 'Ross,' formerly 'Ross Dress Barn,' always has crafting supplies super cheap, canvasses, paints, etc. I love the flat 5x7 ones for when I want my gbabies to create art, giving them each 3 or 4, some paint, and letting them 'design.' I myself love this - keep it or use as mother's/father's day gifts or Christmas, and we do this several times a year (back east we actually had 4 seasons) but for me - I'd rather hang their art and it's priceless to me. Finding the 'clearance' section at Ross makes it affordable, and I find a variety of art supplies for endless creations!!

[@harekrishnafal]

In the 2nd DIY - spray painting on soft soap - good idea is to vertically tape a section & then spray paint .. that’s how it’s easier to track when the bottle is running out of soap .. plus it color blocks & breaks the “all grey” color

[@maggiemoonpie2168]

Nice tip!

[@julieendlich9323]

I just found you today and watched this video. I think you have the best DIY Dollar Tree projects I've seen on KZbin. They look so nice and presentable. Most videos I've seen don't give near the look that yours do. I'll definitely be using several of your ideas!!!

[@gwenjohnston-petrarch5071]

I love the channel. You have a great way of inspiring your viewer to use their own imagination to create beautiful objects. As a rabid homesteader/hydroponic gardener, the creations you make with fake plants make me cringe - so I find myself planning some of the creations using real plants - preferably using a little soul who will either feed or flavor my food or scent my soul with its beauty. Thanks again!

[@ThanhPham-pn6is]

Hi Liz, I just discover your KZbin link. I love your creativities. I am creative too but being so busy with work, school, and volunteering for church, I neglect my creativity. Watching your videos, you inspire and encourage me. I save a lot of things because I have a lot of create ideas floating in my heads but don’t have time to focus on them. With Christmas break, I am working on organizing my craft room. I hope with it organized will inspire me to sometimes on them. Thank you Liz for sharing your gift. Also, I want to let you know how beautiful you are and how classy you are. Your presentation is very inviting as well. All of those add to the popularity of your channel. Great work. I noticed you use a lot of your art with spray paint. I am going to invest in a good mask to wear when using spray paint. Thank you Liz. I love your videos. Keep up the good work and be safe.

[@lauriebieda4498]

Yes to the paint question,they could help us all out and do buy 2get 1 free or something 👍

[@rosemarygomes9707]

The vases were my fav , looks even better than the inspiration piece

[@patriciamalone3553]

When adding something to a round piece like your skewers and clear vase, spacing works best if you start to add the skewers at 12:00, 3:00, 6:00 and 9:00 first.. then fill in evenly in between.

[@claudiadinwiddie4275]

oh Liz, I love everything you do. Thank you for sharing your creativity! Just a quick tip, keep a pair of garden pruners in you craft supply, They are perfect for cutting the skewers evenly. No need to mess with saws and tape. Love you, Lady!!!

[@dedeanderson7880]

Liz I know this has nothing to do with your crafts but I have to mention that I always admire your makeup when I view your videos. I don’t know if you do your own makeup or if you have your own makeup artist but it looks stunning! Those are the colors I always chose when I was younger and still try to use now that I’m in my 60’s. Unfortunately wrinkles set in and makeup doesn’t look like it did when I was younger lol. Beautiful job! ❤

I could really get hooked on your hints.. YES, I subscribed in a jiffy! Love all your hacks/tips! I see everyone has their “Gifts or Talents” from God. Some You-tuber’s are “Artists” and some are more “Home-Makers.” Your ideas are fresh and cool. Love them. The only one I was only leery about was the eucalyptus jars with candles. Too top-heavy and thus dangerous but would look MARVELLOUS with smaller/used/shorter/stub candles. Wonderful ideas! Love’em, Love’em! Great name btw😊

[@fructueuse6630]

Cute idea for the incense holders.They can also do double duty, holding things like your rings, as needed. The aged gold mirror finish is gorgeous.

[@pamearp1388]

I love the pallet soap dish too cute I would like to see more wood project hacks

[@kathywillour4069]

When I remove labels from jars, I run Hot Tap water into the jar; let set for maybe 5 minutes. Then use an old credit card or motel room key and start scraping the label. If it is being stubborn, rub on some cooking oil to breakdown the glue. Much safer than the large flat head screwdriver.

When cutting a bunch of skewers, it would be easier to tape (or tie) them together in a tight bundle above and below your cut mark. Then saw through the bundle like you would saw through a small tree branch.

[@roseparker9571]

I made this trivet project and I love it; but for stability I adhered dollar tree adhesive backed cork sheet tithe felt first! Looks really nice.

Love the black vase and the yarn /branch art!

[@lindapratt5102]

Since you like hacks, here is one I learned recently. If you rarely stain wood, or want to stain something small, take the color of craft paint you want and mix it with water. The more water, the thinner the paint. Just paint on, let dry a minute or two, then wipe off. If this is too light, allow the stain to throughly dry, and repeat. A homemade stain n the prefect color you chose!

[@vanessammiller3436]

Oh my gosh, your three black planters are sooo gorgeous. Like I would pay sooo much money for those, but now I might just make them. So excited I found your channel cause I am forever waisting my money on things like that and then not having enough money for food until my paycheck. I needed to see this because they will mean so much to me and I love to create, just never knew where to even start. Can't wait. Gonna be really good by the end of this year, my new goal. I think I love you:)

[@sallyescrader1434]

At 24 minutes, you use a whole load of rubber bands for your white yarn wall hanging. May I suggest that using white thread instead would last much longer, especially if the wall hanging is hung in direct sunlight. Those rubber bands will lose their elasticity over time and eventually fall apart! If someone makes these to sell, it would need to last. Love your channel! New subscriber! Greetings from England 🇬🇧

Hi I love your designs. You saved my sanity over the past couple of months. I broke my wrist on my dominant hand. After surgery to repair I was told 3 months to heal and a year to recover. So I was not able to do too much. Started looking at You tube DIY videos and saw yours. I can hardly wait to try some. I’m into month three of healing. Still a ways to go. Thank you for all your creative projects. I look forward to many more of your videos. Nicole

[@debbieraukar4982]

You have some great projects to share & you do it so well. Thank you...Another option for your wood bead project is to drill a hole in the wood and place dowel into the wood-could use thicker wood piece or double it for a stronger base.

Hi Liz. On the plate and bowl you could put the bowl in the middle of the plate and use it for chip and dip.

[@kayeyeager8006]

I have done her version and then just flip it over. I get a lot of " Where did you buy that? "

[@wendyaminzadeh2165]

​@kayeyeager8006 - the flipping is a good idea 💡 too

[@wendyaminzadeh2165]

It will be in the middle once the bowl is on the bottom,since it can be flipped for dip.

[@wendyaminzadeh2165]

Or just buy 2 sets and 1 for muffins,and cookies the other for chips,& dips.

[@cherieszollosi2728]

Thank you for the great tip :) I used to save stamps when I was little and my mom showed me to put the envelope over the tea kettle when it's boiling and blowing steam through the beak, it made them really easy to take off without damaging them.
