[@DonnaDesigns]

Hi. Erika, Awesome Haul. I like the mini vacaum. All the dies are great.The bags are sweet. All the storage containers are awesome. So many Fun finds. TYFSing all your goodies. Happy Crafting. 🌝🩷💕

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Hi Donna! Your support means the world to me! It's comments like yours that keep me motivated to share more content. Thank you! Happy Crafting friend!

[@DonnaDesigns]

@@Todaywitherikafay Your Welcome. Enjoyed the Video. Hope you have a awesome upcoming week.🌝💕💗

[@isabellabihy8631]

Cart always full? Yep, me too. I love to shop crafty stuff myself. About your broken free box: The material looks like polyacrylic, which generally breaks easily, almost like glass. A hard knock will do. An idea from fellow crafter to fellow crafter: How about running some (super) glue into the cracks and then decoupage the whole thing with gift wrap? Use thin paper or the little drawers might no longer fit.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

lol I’m glad I’m not the only one! And thank you so much for the idea! That’s a good one! I wanted it because it was clear so I could see what’s inside. But since it’s cracked in more than one place and it was free. I think that would make a fun project and now you’ve got my mind thinking! Thanks again I appreciate you taking the time to comment and share! 💗💗💗

[@blueskyart]

I like the way you show the haul a lot. No dawdling and drag with extraneous explanations.! I see and get you ! Keep it up, girl!

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thanks a ton! So glad you appreciate the straightforward approach. I want to keep a fun vibe, share but get through everything because hauls can already be long just with the amount of items! 😂😅 Gotta keep it rolling! Thanks for watching! 💗💗

[@BeadyBomBomElizabeth]

Fun haul! I store all my molds in a plastic shoe box from DT. I use to use regular fast air dry resin but I started to develope migrains and I use to make my own molds too but the same thing would happen so I destashed a lot of my molds and kept the ones I really like for clay but then I found UV Resin and hope to play with it soon. I use packaging tape or even a sticky lint roller to remove dried resin bits and dirt from the mold. Happy to see that people are bringing back the cameos. A few years back I would use those in my crafts. They are beautiful. Tfs.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Hi Elizabeth! Thank you so much for the pointers! I like the idea of UV resin because it’s faster. I’ve only used it on small projects so far. But I also have been doing research (after I already ordered these molds) lol that clear molds are better for the UV resin. But I plan on using these models for clay too! I’m excited to get into making some of my own little cameos and cabochons for crafting! I love dimension! Thanks watching and I look forward to sharing what I create with some of this stuff once I get using it! ❤️❤️❤️

[@joanstrowbridge9939]

Hi, great haul, so many really nice things. I love it the way you were taking it out of the bag . Thank you for sharing!!!

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Hi Joan! I'm glad you enjoyed the haul! Thank you for watching!

[@StaceStace]

Fantastic big haul. I definitely see some items I need to add to my cart!

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Hi Stace Stace!! I'm glad you enjoyed the haul! Your support means a lot to me!

[@laurie4275]

With each purchase you place through Temu, your prices go up. Eventually, you will reach the point where you're paying typical retail prices, or same as Amazon. At the point, you're Amazon orders will arrive in days, vs the weeks you wait for Temu. The prices are unbelievable in the beginning to get people started shopping with them. I wish I had known this in the beginning, and bought more of what I most wanted at those earliest prices.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s always helpful to hear from others who have gone through the same thing. If the prices don't see like a good deal compared to what I can buy locally or on amazon then I will still purchase but when it comes down to price, quality, and speed of receiving I take all those into factor for sure! Thanks for watching!

[@debbiescrafts76]

I’ve shopped Temu for ages and still get good prices

[@deborahcollis9814]

Those pink molds would be great for icing decorations

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thank you for your comment! I’m glad you think the pink molds are great. So many creative ideas you can come up with!

[@annowens1294]

Wow! Great Haul. Looks like you had fun shopping on Temu.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thanks Ann! Yes…. I haven’t order since all this came in lol! Need to use some of this first lol

[@ruthclay1746]

Thank you for the wonderful haul. I loved all the tea cups. I add some of them to my cart.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thank you Tanya! 💗😃

[@CindyReese-x8k]

I don’t know if they are even still out there (I don’t shop much right now) but I use acrylic box type picture frames to store my rubber stamps in. They are great, my stamps don’t get smooshed and are easy to see through the acrylic. I stack them on top of each other in a clear tote. It works perfectly. Hope this helps.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Ooo yes I know what you’re talking about! Those would work really good for the molds! Thank you for the suggestion! I need to go see where I can find those and hopefully inexpensively! ❤️❤️❤️

[@TheElly76]

Love how you did the haul! It is fun seeing everything come out of the bag with you 😊

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thanks a bunch for watching! I appreciate you sharing with me your preference! I will continue to do my temu hauls this!

[@JaniceRigsbee-xx5ph]

Those stamps for wax seals they could probably be used for clay, and you can bake the clay and use it as embellishments probably

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Janice that’s a good thought! Thank you for sharing that idea.

[@amandaperez8844]

Great haul! I love the way you do it its more exciting to me!

[@sinnamin1115]

love the haul! When I look for something on temu I look up that item which leads you to look at other things but then ya go back to what you originally started looking for and you guessed it- it takes me on a spending spree LOL

Thanks for watching the haul! It's so easy to get caught up in browsing and end up with a full cart, haha. I knew I wasn't alone! LOL!

I ordered like 50 different molds for resin, candles and soap...i haven't tried them yet but they are exactly like the ones I ordered on Amazon

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Yes, I ordered some too. They are the same ones. Thanks for watching and sharing! 💗

[@karenhughes3558]

Can you provide the links for the cutting dies? Trying to find them in TEMU is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. 😜. Thanks!

Ahh okay! Yes I’ll try to do that soon! Thanks so much for watching and letting me know you prefer that! 😀

[@Ravenqueen2023]

Yes, free things are broken or something wrong with them. I was going to purchase some office organizational stuff, but after my thing came in defected forget it.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Yeah sometimes it’s a bummer when things like that come broken and damaged. Somethings are okay to order from there if you know it won’t come damaged. If there is a chance of it then probably better to buy locally! thanks for sharing your experience! 💗

[@LaurasPlansAndCrafts]

The album die is awesome! That’s a great size. I love getting storage things on Temu too. I feel like the stores raise prices a ton just to say they are giving you a discount. I would love to know how the dremel works out. I’ve been wanting one. Harbor Frieght sells them for pretty cheap too. Amazing haul!! Also, I received your entry for my challenge just FYI :)

[@Todaywitherikafay]

The album Die is indeed is awesome, I can't wait to see how well it turns out. I will share it when I do. I know what you mean...we gotta watch out for those sneaky store prices! Temu def. does it... even lots of department stores do it like JcPenny has been caught doing something like that and Kohls does it to...ugh! I can't wait to see how Dremel handles projects. I will def. give a review! I hope it works well. I go to Harbor Freight occasionally for crafty items also but haven't been in a while. Thanks for the reminder. I need to go see if they have anything I need to get my crafty hands on hehe! Glad you got my cards for your entry! yay!

The mini Vacuum will definitely be a must have for crafty people like you. It sucks that you got items that are not in good condition.

I know that’s what I thought too! I’ll have to give an update on how well it works, once I try it! I haven’t crafted much at the moment! Been so busy! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💗

I prefer like items together. Makes it easier to add to my list.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thanks for letting me know. A few people have said they like how I do it but I do know some like it grouped together like you said. I might give it a try like that next Temu haul I do and see if I like doing it that way too! Mix it up! Thanks for the feedback!

How do you use all the dies, What do you make with them

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thanks for your question! I appreciate your curiosity. I use them in so many ways! I use them on cards, for different embellishments, and for projects for papercraft swaps. Each die opens up a new opportunity for creativity, and I love sharing that journey with you all. I plan on making a video and sharing some of the different projects soon!

Free items can still be replaced if you send them photos - my veggie chopper was the same - free via Fishland and was refunded.

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Awesome! Thank you so much for letting me know! 💗

[@Simple_retired_life]

Hi Erika!!! To bad about your free item, who knows it might have been a return from someone else. Hopefully they can replace it, or you can hide the cracks with washi tape or stickers. You bought allot of adorable resin molds, you need to video your projects. I need to look for the teacup cat die…. Its cute!!! TFS!!! Hugs. Gloria 🌺

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Hey Gloria, thanks for the love and suggestions! I'll see what I can do with the cracked item. Yes, the teacup cat die is adorable! I can't wait to try it and see how it turns out! Happy Crafting!

You could use air dry clay and they are brilliant from Temu I have made some amazing flowers and butterflies, please get some air dry clay it’s really great value for money it comes in all sorts of colours and small bag’s but it goes a long way

That's awesome to hear! Air dry clay sounds like a versatile and fun material to work with. Thanks for the recommendation! I will totally look into ordering some and give it a try!

Hi there! Yes I have done that in the past thankfully. It’s just a bummer it gets broken. Thanks so much for sharing your experience. 💗💗

[@virrethegreat]

Honestly I would prefer links to the stuff or if you share your order. I have seen ppl share the order so that might be useful. And a bit more organized video. But hey, it is your video not mine. But I wont be coming back unless its more organized. Take care and good luck (I will be checking in to see if anything changed in the future) 😊

[@Todaywitherikafay]

Thanks for the feedback. I will add links and I will try a more organized video for those like you who prefer it that way in the future. Thanks so much for watching!

[@virrethegreat]

@@Todaywitherikafay wow thats nice of you! I know it will be a bit more work for you but maybe it will pay out more for you. I honesty just want it to be good for you. I dont know what other ppl think but I personally hate the noise of plastic sound when ppl open the items. I have a hard time when I have to do it myself and I order a lot from Temu ☺️ Ppl think its asmr with that noise but I cant stand it. Yeah I know Im a bit strange 😂 I can always mute the video ☺️ thats why its nice with links so I can go back and check. And Ive seen ppl number their stuff in the haul so its easier to find it in the description. Like 1. pen (link) 2. Tape (link) and so on... I really dont expect you to make all the changes, its just a friendly suggestion. If you make changes it will be some work for you and some editing but maybe you know how to do this (I dont 😂) I wish you all the best and will now subscribe to see how it goes for you. Take care! Lots of love from Sweden! ❤️❤️❤️

Im already a subscriber cause Im curious to se what happens and did not what so ever mean to rude or evil in any kind of way. I can always mute the video if I dont like the sound but it is hard to find the items without links or proper description. Take that for what you will but I think you missunderstood my comment.

that stuff isn't authentic, not a good choice as it will ruin your business

[@Todaywitherikafay]

I appreciate your perspective! Authenticity is definitely crucial in building a sustainable business. It’s always good to weigh our options carefully. I try not to purchase things that may be copyrighted or someone else's knock-off items.

On my channel I want to help others when purchasing from Temu or anywhere I might be sharing a haul or purchase from. Not everything we buy or order will work out, but when items are damaged in shipping or come with a strong foul odor I’m going to be sure and let people know as a “heads up” before ordering.

[@ruthclay1746]

I’m not sure how she was negative. She was just giving a review. Not everything from Temu is worth your money. I agree with her in the shipping. Temu packs everything so tight, there is a lot of breakage. I’m always glad to hear someone’s honest opinion. It still is my decision whether to purchase or not.
