"We're going to save the lid in case we want to make a wind chime." I don't know why but that cracked me up.

You're like an Easter Egg. Bright and colourful and hard to find, but when found, you create excitement.

[@09lisalewis]

If you haven't tried to eat your cat tail, I highly recommend it! Goes especially well with gin.

[@8656737s]

The dollar tree has cinnamon! They also have the sticks ! 😀 Love you Amy 🤗❤

[@pzeud0nym]

i can't wait to class up my next thanksgiving with these

[@colibri1]

I bet this is a craft that Amy remembers from the 60s or 70s, cuz no one these days even knows what a cattail is. We may have heard of them, but we've never seen them.

[@Dottyeyes]

Did she say, save the lid for a wind chime for baby's room?! Love it! Around 1:01.

[@jubalcalif9100]

Where can one buy Simple Times- Crafts for Poor People? Also, did you have a pattern for the loin cloth or just kind of wrap it around yourself?

[@wemailarmen]

Cinnamon is expensive

[@kawreaVII]

This must be the vegetarian version. I make my cat tails with vienna sausage

[@uniqutilities2831]

I had a hard time figuring out if this was serious not🤔 Having a name like "Simple Time : Crafts For Poor People" further confused me. In the end, I've decided it's just Amy, which is just fine by me 😀 Subbed!

[@kevdaag2523]

Save the lid in case you want to make a wind chime

[@hotchagirl85]

I am so afraid she is going to slice her fingers off with those rusty scissors.

[@Nancytoday]

@Ramonerdna Poor people just go cut some cattails from the roadside with real leaves! LOL

[@jocelynmyers]

This video is a joke people. Love Amy.

[@richernest3359]

FBI epilogue...your my America's most wanted!luv!

[@Paelorian]

Cinnamon *is* expensive! I'd recommend using dry dirt instead. If you're crafting at sea without a potted plant and don't have dirt, I imagine cocoa powder would also work well.

[@athenathegreatandpowerful6365]

Cinnamon is cheap. Dollar Tree, Dollar General etc. Huge container for a dollar. Get out of tge McCormack section and stop paying $6 for 2 tablespoons of it.

[@lilacs91]

[@tylertyler82]

Why??

[@FloridaFox]

Now what Chinese corn is is it's just, little.

[@zombiesecurity]

[@wakygee]

Thanks Amy! Poka-whatsername is tickled you mentioned her, I'm sure!

[@dxmxo9427]

Lol

[@sometimesboy]

bitch, you funny!

[@Nancytoday]

I imagine Pocahantas used real cattails! She probably didn't have cinnamon or feel like making paper just to make pretend leaves! LOL But very imaginative!

[@heindlwest]

I luv Amy Sederahontas!! Lol!! But I am not much of a "Pilgrim"..

[@ambermcdonald63]
