*MAGIC* DOLLAR TREE HACKS 😱 :30 second holiday secrets!

[@j.j.anderson3434]

Kathryn, my husband just came home from a year of deployment. One of the first things he wanted to do was see this Dollar Tree lady I had been telling him about! I purchased a home while he was away and I have used so many of your ‘tricks’ to organize! Thank you and remember, YOU are enough!

[@DoItOnaDime]

Thank you for your service! ❤❤🤗. I love that!

[@traygoodie]

Thanks for your sacrifice 🤍🙏🏼

[@successor29]

Does anyone here become sad when these videos end ? ❤😂 Thanks a lot for all the good vibes, Kathryn!! I literally wait for every new video from your channel!! So much inspiration !! 😍

[@vedaanderson7009]

Yea I do

[@MarissaAnn1988]

Please never stop making videos that make people feel good. You’re such a gem

[@susan_e]

I love being reminded that I am enough - Thank you! You totally got me today with, 'The first Christmas was pretty simple, it's OK if yours is, too."🥰

[@brendatomlinson]

That hit me hard too

[@teresagreene8409]

You got me too ❤️

[@jarhead5974]

I must be dense, but I don't understand "The first Christmas was pretty simple, it's OK if yours is, too." Could someone please explain. Thank You.

[@susan_e]

@@jarhead5974 You're not 'dense' at all - I'm glad you asked.🙂The first Christmas celebrated the birth of Christ - it was in a stable, surrounded by animals and the evening stars. I invite other commenters to add to this if they'd like.

[@sherbear2016]

He was born in a stable and laid in a lowly manger because their was no room for them in any of the inns in town. Bethlehem was packed with travelers coming to pay their taxes to Caesar.

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Best channel on KZbin. Agree?!

[@robinfollmer4363]

Agree, I always get great tips and I feel good too!❤

[@kat5592]

Absolutely Mrs Alma ♥

[@shawnaf]

She’s awesome!

[@Neelysmusic]

Yes!

[@Neelysmusic]

Love all your videos! Keep them coming!!

[@docentofdeLight]

You aren’t kidding about those see through bins with the snap closed lids. They are AWESOME!! I redid my hall closet using them a couple months ago and even though I had to shop at two locations to gather enough of them, it was totally worth it. My closet is fabulous!!

[@Sunshine33333]

That spatula is worth $100 in my book, it is amazing, we use it every day. Thank you Kathryn!!!! You are so clever!!!!

[@CameraQueenSLC]

I love the shower curtain rings idea to attach your garland to the top of your curtains. What a cool idea. Thanks, Kathryn

[@christinagilbert9087]

I was shocked! My poor husband went oh no what you want to do 🤣🤣

[@L1...]

The table scape was really nice, and that bow making idea was awesome 👍

[@corireeves32]

Thanks Kathryn for always being so kind and looking out for the cute, yet inexpensive ways to decorate. I love the bow idea! - Thanks!!

[@runsoffsarcasmcoffee8303]

Love having your cheery videos start off my week! Makes Monday's more bearable.

[@zebralove2840]

The muffin tin idea for leftovers is so good! Instead of dragging out all of the dishes and making individual plates.

[@YO-sj6hu]

I can't help but be jealous over seeing all those deals from your dollar store.I live on a rock where prices for everything is extremely expensive. Christmas decorations like tinsel, lights start at about $6 to $8 depends to if you can find it. Walmart doesn't help with just as crazy pricing on things,.THANK YOU for keeping the smile on my face and a crafter's dream in my heart. One day I hope to craft awsy. Take care and keep doing you, your awesome! Aloha

[@mitchelltrio]

Your videos are always fun and interesting, but what puts them over the top for me is how your kindness shines through. Thank you for sharing.

[@castlealcazar3013]

The garlands on the curtain rods, attached with shower rings, are brilliant! ❤️👏

[@TheLatinaNextDoor]

So many wonderful ideas! I love the shower curtain hack and the command hooks for the cables (genius!). Those centerpieces were so beautiful too! 🎄💕

[@mariee.5912]

Yes!!

[@LivingBetterwithBarb]

Kathryn, I love your "bow trick" and your white chocolate candy wreath. Can't wait to try both! Great video! ❤

[@ilonas_diy_classrom1.026]

Kathryn + Christmas DIYs at dollar, yessss please, I love it. So beautiful and whimsical. Kathryn you bring us such joy.

[@susanpettit8751]

Thank you!! Hope you have as much joy this season that you bring everyone else!!!!

[@angelmonkeymcgee]

I freaking love the "shower ring/garland" decor idea. Brilliant!

[@ninak8506]

I need to decorate a few tables at church for a Christmas celebration. That centerpiece is just the thing. Thanks Catherine! 🎄🎅🏻🎁❣️

[@holliequinton2616]

I love your energy. You are just so uplifting and I try to watch all of your videos. I've used some of your hacks and you're right - you don't steer us wrong. ❤️ Happy holidays!

[@brendatomlinson]

It’s simple for me - I didn’t know any of them! I’m thinking the rug huggers would be great to put under the dog and cat bowl placemats! The hooks for wrapping cords is genius! Your centerpiece is adorable! If I had a place for one I would def do that. AND most importantly is the $3 clip bins! Boy, do I need some of those! I just got new shelving for my craft room and I’m ready to organize! Thanks for sharing all you do with us, Kathryn!!

[@ilovenoodles7483]

Oh Katherine, you really did it this time! I love it when you said "the first Christmas was simple; it's okay if yours is to." But please don't be afraid to be bold and tell us why. The world needs to hear it and that *_is_* actually the reason for this whole season! So quick story: this completely changed my life! One time I was shopping at Walmart and in the middle of the Christmas hustle and bustle, rush, rush, and I was in the particular Christmas section of all the decorations and a few stuffed plush toys. The shelf I was looking at- the middle one, was almost barren and picked through, kinda disorganized and scattered and dark, and gloomy, as I was making my way through further down that whole entire shelf, I kid you not, I saw a bright spot on the shelf where the light was hitting it just right and it wasn't dim anymore, and all by itself, peacefully just sitting there, *perfectly*, not knocked over or crooked or anything like that, was this cute small baby blue teddy bear that said "Jesus loves you," embroidered on it! It was wonderful and it really touched me and made me stop and think that the first Christmas really was _simple_. Just beautiful, life changing and simple. The first real royal family Jesus, Mary, and Joseph all together, by their selves, except the heavenly host of angels and until after the birth when the shepherds came....simple. Then I realized what was happening, - in the middle of this secular world and life's rush and hustle and bustle, there Jesus is, reminding us that He is very near and He came in the flesh to this wicked world just for us to have salvation and it is REAL! It's truly that simple. More real than anything! Be encouraged and repent and Jesus bless you and yours. Have eternal peace in Him. 🕊️ ❤️🙏🏼

[@Ginghammom]

You make me sooo happy!!! Thank you for using your God given encouraging to help us not overspend on decor to cleaning!! I love your hugs and your positivity!! Please keep it going!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@SophieMia806]

Those little pretzel wreaths are so adorable! I may actually try to make some of those this year.

[@marybethhuson295]

Where (or what brand) did you get those tiny pretzels?

[@rebeccacostin9707]

I think I might try this with the little caramels instead :) , unfortunately my brother can't eat chocolate poor guy.

[@SophieMia806]

@@rebeccacostin9707 ...Caramels sound good, too!

[@lauraguida8482]

Instead of using shower curtain rings you could also use the DT Wired Garland Ties so they just blend in with your garland that you are hanging. They are 15" in length so you could easily cut them into 5" strips. I love the idea of using your feet to make a bow! Brilliant!

[@marissasharp9892]

Omg, the cookie jar idea was brilliant! My sons and I love making Christmas cookies for friends and family every year, but it gets challenging to find cute, inexpensive ways to give them in. Thanks for all your great ideas, Kathryn! God bless and Merry Christmas 🎄 to your beautiful family! ❤

[@MichelleA81]

I love the table top candle decor! So gorgeous! 😍 And those pretzel treats are such a fantastic idea. I'm totally trying that out. ❤

[@sunshinecindy570]

Love the chair covers! I use them in my SUV, I put them on the headrests! Makes my errands feel more festive! 🎅🏼🎅🏼🎅🏼🎅🏼

[@DoItOnaDime]

I love that! ❤️

[@adairsulhoff5405]

I love that you end your videos with a hug instead of a hand over the camera....great tips!

[@cmcclure67]

I'm convinced that it would be nothing but laughter if I were to go shopping with you, Kathryn, at the Dollar Tree! Because that's what I did throughout most of your video this morning 😂🎄🎅🤶❤️ all kidding aside, I enjoyed everything that you found at the Dollar Tree

[@michelleangello6741]

You never steer anyone wrong Katherine!!! I have taken your advice on hacks, products, ideas and have NEVER been disappointed EVER!!!! Your the BEST ever!!!!! Can't wait til your next video........Hugs to you and my best to the family.......🎄

I love everything so much. Seriously wish 1) my dollar tree was half as big as yours lol😂 2) I could spend a day with you - what a fun time that would be You’re super inspiring

Weird comment here, but most of the people I follow, eventually start looking so worn out and you look so genuinely happy and so healthy! I love it 💜

Kathryn you are the greatest at decor ideas. For 2 weeks school is having dress up day and you just gave me some ideas for Christmas. Thanks for sharing this. Take care. 🎄⛄🎄❤️

You make a dark and rainy day SO much brighter. Thank you.

[@raquelgonzalez9588]

Thank you for the ribbon tutorial!!! I can't believe I didn't think of this before!

[@pegd8941]

I have to say that I enjoy your videos, and your Dollar Trees are exceptional. Love the ideas you teach us. So I decided last week to go to more then one Dollar Tree in more then one state to get stuff to make from your videos. They were not stocked, stuff all over the floor. Stock not put up and most of the shelves were very bare. So either yourDollar Tree is ready for you to film or they are always as nice as they appear in your videos. Thank you for sharing

[@wavyliketheocean3486]

Happy magic hacks haul beautiful lady! That bow hack is awesome! Aldi also has a 3 tier box too I put gifts inside. Simple password! Thank you for sharing another fantastic hacks and tips and beautiful decors! Have a blessed week.

Hands down you are my favorite KZbinr - I keep making my mom who lives in Statesville, go to all the surrounding towns Dollar Trees so she can possibly find you! If some crazy lady asks you for a pic with her, that's my mom!

Love the garland/shower curtain hooks idea. That's a keeper! Thank you.

[@lindawarden-burglund9603]

I just love your videos! They are jam-packed with items and tips and easy to follow how-tos. You are just so sweet and fun and I wish I could give you a hug! I really want to try the rug grippers. As a person who uses a cane, a rug that won't stay put is a danger around the house. The centerpiece is so pretty, and thank you for the bow-making tutorial and video! This I've got to try! Thank you Kathryn!

[@ilovenoodles7483]

Condolences to you. I know the feeling tomorrow is the one year anniversary of my Dad going to be with the Lord and it's still hard! Repent and may God's peace be upon you. Love and blessings to you. Just take it -one day at a time- one moment at a time, it kind of makes it not easier, but more bearable. Pray, it works. 🙏🏼 That is truly what helped me.

[@kinniejoduvall2053]

@@ilovenoodles7483 I'm so sorry for your loss of your Dad. And yes thank you for the encouragement. I have moments I try to do it all on my own, realize what I'm doing and then let go and let God work in and through me. I can't but He can do all things.🙏 Blessings 💖

[@artisticagi]

OVEN TIP: 1:30 you can lay foil on the bottom of the oven to catch any drips as well

[@Eriadni.]

Um this doesn't work with all ovens, my SIL put foil in my brand new wall oven because she heard this tip somewhere (Reynolds brand, not the super thin type) and it fused to the bottom. It never came off. Wabi Sabi and all that, the oven still works fine, but it's not pretty and I would recommend against trying this, at least in wall ovens.

[@laurieclarkson9180]

We use those flat black mats typically used for outdoor grills so food can't fall between the rack's gaps.

[@charlenegriffis5900]

Can do foil in older ovens, but not in newer models.

[@meems-ke1eb]

I bought oven liners from Lidl for just a couple bucks and they are amazing! Food just falls right off. It won't help the door though! Mine gets to be a mess.

Girl! You are hands down my fav on KZbin! I love the chair covers and buy them every year! I love the Cricut spin on them!!! I’m hoping to get a little crafty and use the chair cover as a template for some more durable fabric since those get tossed from the use during the holidays. Using your Cricut idea for sure!

[@madeleine1138]

You are so upbeat it makes me want to at least think about decorating. It's having to put everything away that keeps me from doing it. Also, when giving sweet treats or soaps and perfumes please think about your friends or co-workers who may be diabetic or those people who can't tolerate any heavy perfumes or new soaps due to allergies. Please give what they like or need not what you like. Super difficult this time of year! Thank you for sharing and making spirits bright.Loved the bow and the centerpiece idea and those rug grippers.

Hi Those rug grippers do work! I have them in my kitchen for mats. I think you have a complicated password! Can't wait to try the bow making idea. I helped a friend with decorations for her wedding. The only thing I said was I didn't want to make the pew bows. Guess who made the pew bows? They turned out good but the hack with your feet would have helped! Don't think I heard of the muffin tin idea for leftovers. Going to try this too. Thank you for the video.
