[@gwencollins4312]

Loved the mosaic tile earings

[@anashvillegirl]

Yaaas, I laaahve these types of Matt videos!!! 🔥🔥 I use nail polish on beads a lot. Toothpicks are my bestie for fine detail painting (brush & a holder) and gluing (especially nasty superglue & E6000). Also, my Dollar Tree has jewelry pliers (I got a backup pair of round nose) and earring/ jewelry findings. However, I would avoid the findings since they'll probably rust/tarnish quickly (plus metal allergies). And usually nail polish remover will dissolve super glue on your skin.

[@VincentsRockGarage]

Knocked it out of the park! Great creative and cost effective project ideas.

[@faithmatthews830]

I have all these beads except the Mosaic pieces. Had no idea they could look this good! TFS!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Love your jewelry-making style and your fun videos! Happy New Year, my friend. 😀

[@Leesie77]

Dollar Tree actually sells ALL the jewelry pliers for making jewelry in the craft section. I have the entire set from them and they work really well. They also have the spring in them to help with handling and creating. They do sell the earrings, necklaces, bracelets making kits in multiple color metals at Dollar Tree as well. Rubbing Alcohol will remove super glue and paint from your skin. I hope this helps.

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Your dollar tree sounds way more rad than ours!!!

[@jeniahrose94]

They do, wow I did not know that

[@riaschuller6646]

My dollar tree doesn't have all those supplies😢

[@barbaradiemer9614]

I love how you make your tutorials fun and easy and you get right to it. Thanks!

[@sallyransom1223]

I just found your channel..not only do I love your style. I LOVE your messages of positivity and encouragement, BRAVO!! I will definitely share this channel 👏 from one artist to another 😊

[@bethanylouive9402]

This is awesome & just what I needed today! And now I want some of those wooden pink beads the Dollar Tree has & some sparkly red polish! I'm gonna paint hearts on ALLLLL the pink beads!!!

[@dianalewis4417]

Thank you! Matt. I always share your videos with my young nieces & nephews who love art. 🥰 They make jewelry to give children in Dominican Republic mission trips they go on.

[@satisfyingcuriosities]

How is this channel not so much bigger?! Sharing. ❤ Keep at it please! We need more of you in our creative spaces.

[@deborahkelly7102]

Yea! so glad to have you back doing tutorials...And I DO watch all your "life coach" videos as well...we are listening and watching...keep it up!

[@everythinghomekelly2618]

Hi, love your ideas💡, thank you for sharing 💞 small itty bitty piece of fabric around your jewelry pliers and you won't scar up whatever you're working on 💐

[@juliekm6495]

Love your philosophy on art! So glad you are speaking out on it! Have just stared to follow you. Watched a playback on your sales from last Friday! Will try to catch your next live! Keep up the good work!

[@kathynoll4634]

My favorite is the butterfly 🦋 although I would have added them to the first one in the middle. But that's what is so exciting about this! Thanks 👍

[@cintiapollock2486]

me too! would have been super cute!!

[@normablake2748]

I’m so glad your channel turned up in my feed! So, very nice to see a guy doing something with jewelry! Your energy and enthusiasm are inspiring. Loverly projects ❤ Keep doing you ❤️🌺 BTW, thrift stores and your Mom’s old jewelry and Grandmothers old button box can be sourced for old beads and findings for your creations.

[@miyannaable]

I needed to see this one today. I'm learning to work jewelry and guitar back into my life after having been promoted at work - takes up a lot of time, so I'm learning the rhythm and tempo of time management. About to make a pendant now. Looking forward to the stones I won at the last auction! My latest listing includes an arrowhead I won at another one of your auctions. Your enthusiasm and open-mindedness is some of the most convincing inspiration ever.

[@amo8773]

I love your channel because it gets me thinking more creatively. I watch more technical videos too, but I love how you think outside the box. You just inspired me to make something out of some miniature colored tiles I've had sitting around for ages.

[@robinclayborne7576]

LOVE IT!!!! Thank you for sharing!!! INSPIRATION!!! Right now I'm working on my side hustle as a jewelry designer. I make statement earrings. I live around the corner of a Dollar General and a Beauty Supply Store. My Sister and Law work for Dollar Tree 🌳. Time to get MORE CREATIVE!!! Keep up the good work and have a wonderful day and stay CREATIVE 😊 Robin N.Otis-Clayborne

[@chipixie]

You are the only guru for jewelry for me. Always have been. Always will be. Me and mine with the least expensive or scavenged and upcycled parts.

[@brandyboston9363]

You with the nail polish . . . TO FUNNY!! 😂❤ Love your enthusiasm and work. Thanks for sharing.

[@zonadanger128]

Thanks for the links and great ideas... I love that butterfly pair

[@trishahernandes7821]

Matt, you are so funny! I love watching your channel.

[@sharonrowland1196]

Matt Yu you're too AWESOME BRO I LOVE YOU'RE JEWELRY 👍👍❤️ Awesome idea with the paper tray Matt 👍🤣

[@Angela_Newburn]

Awesome video Matt. Thank you 😊💕

[@enigmadawn1112]

Just found you on here. I have the wooden shapes like the butterflies to use for scrapbooking. Thanks for showing me another use! Cool video with great ideas! 👍 and subscribed!

[@robinweiss5147]

Love the paper clip idea. I already have a ton of different colored ones and had never thought about twisting them up and using beads.

[@kathynoll4634]

Happy New Year! Matt looking forward to seeing your channel this year!!

[@cathygeorge2296]

I enjoyed watching your video. I too like making jewelry with $1 🌳 items and never thought of making earrings with the paper clips until now.

[@teressagiordano4158]

Been making funky jewelry & off-the-wall sun catchers out of $1 store stuff, resale stuff & hardware bits for around 30 years...catering to a niche customer base, for sure! But, BOHO is back, so wonky stuff is selling better, lately. Btw...you can use a hand held can opener to open those tougher clear plastic packages.

[@laurettabratti6638]

I love your creativity and general nuttiness! Very inspirational, thanks. 😉✌️

[@angelinalozada189]

Many Blessings Matt.

[@TheMzTR]

The use of the tip of a pencil, tooth pick, or stylus stencils will make better dots using nail polish. These are just some of the things & hacks that nail technician uses.

[@LEW-up9oq]

Love the video! The black and silver earrings rock!!!!

[@kimmarkey2101]

I never thought paper clips could be used. The wood butterflies are fun if painted with dollar store paint. I also have never even thought about making post earrings.

[@martinaheyd-jilg2837]

I like your Art jewelry so much. Have a Good new year!

[@robinclayborne7576]

Use nail polish removal to get unstuck from super glue. Keep up the good work!!!

[@MattsCrazyArt]

It works about 50% for me. That stuff sticks on for a day no matter what I do

[@PattiWalkerEternalShawnee]

I like the way you glued the squares also.

[@angelinalozada189]

Wonderful ideas, Thank You.

[@sdmcdaniel2255]

those earrings are great!!! I'm torn between the gray and silver and the butterflies as my favorite! I think the butterflies. See you next time!

[@ginas.6656]

I'm always in DT for cool stuff! You gave me more ideas!

[@cintiapollock2486]

I loved the funky butterfly's the bestest! oh yea!

[@bextermonkey246]

So glad you are BACK!

[@SecretSquirrelDunDun]

I love when friends of mine come to see me and tell me how many people loved their jewelry - all because my friend was a walking billboard by sporting something I created!

[@annieaviles4760]

You’re an excellent teacher!

[@melbabowen4389]

I love when you film this type of tutorial video.

[@lizlucey3812]

Right up my alley! Subscribed 🎉

[@elizabethh1829]

I opened my first craft bead container and dropped 3 beads out was difficult but I can do. Love the diamond shaped beads. I want butterfly ones we don't have 😢. Tyty for your videos .

[@sandracook9600]

You are a wild man!!!! I loved every minute. Thank you for sharing.

[@Myart3699]

I like mirror tiles💜

[@doloresgonzalez6988]

Awesome love them.

[@user-pd7il3xz5j]

The Dollar Tree stores in Baltimore City & Baltimore County look like a tornado went through them. Matt, your area seems to do a nice job of keeping the store neatly displayed.

[@dreamweavingbydiane5771]

Heading to the buck twenty-five store soon

[@MattsCrazyArt]

I know, right???

[@faithlacer]

I like black and silver color ones

[@StephanieSharp2]

I am truly inspired, and the one technique I probably will try is the one you use with those mosaic tiles, I love that. I think you could do some lovely rings with that. And just to prove I watched this video, I would have chosen the Reese’s (I also appreciate your little air fryer tip). Also, you must have a bottle of acetone to help remove the super glue. And I highly recommend you go down the rabbit hole of watching water marble nail art videos, I think you will be inspired. Essentially you drop different colour drops of nail polish onto the surface of a bowl of water, you could incorporate this technique for coating wooden beads.

[@SecretSquirrelDunDun]

On a side note... those colored paperclips also make excellent miniature straws for mini drinks ha ha

[@MattsCrazyArt]

For tiny people

[@dreamweavingbydiane5771]

Great ideas Matt

[@altheamcnabb2829]

I cant believe i didnt instanty think Jewelry when i saw those wood butterflies. Crazy.

[@Myart3699]

Matt the Magnificent! Truly your mind is so free-

[@catsreading]

I like this wild approach to jewellery. I am more of the pretty dainty gold diamond type but have started to venture out into the wild world of fun jewellery and it's been nothing short of just fun fun fun. :D

[@sandracarter7231]

These are so freakin cool! I need to make a trip to dollar tree soon. Even at $1.25 getting supplies there is still reasonable.

[@PattiWalkerEternalShawnee]

They look great.

[@sondrajones3875]

you inspire me thank you for sharing your hacks so we can make stuff cheaply

[@jeanettatownsend6807]

The things I make I like to say they are perfectly imperfect.

[@chicgeekery]

This is great! I end up buying more craft stuff from the thrift and dollar stores than the craft stores, but I never thought of using the brightly colored paperclips. I wonder if putting thin cloth or a paper towel between them and the pliers would keep the coating intact? Matt, I'd love to see your take on creating displays for a craft fair!

[@cheriehunter4983]

My doallartrees are now carrying earing and bracelet findings and the different jewelry making pliers that you were using. So keep an eye out for them coming to your stores

[@MattsCrazyArt]

No way!

[@rebeccalowe-hodges8162]

OHMYGOSH. I just found this channel and yay. : ) .... and don't forget the 2nd grade painted macaroni bead necklaces.

[@sharonrowland1196]

MATT yu you're AWESOME 👍 AND I'M NOT KIDDING YOU'RE SUPER AWESOME 👍👍

[@shelljw]

Ok - no brush and no paperclip to use as one - find a couple of cotton buds :D They work really well too :D Ive been making my own earring hooks out of the same wire /and same colour too, and gosh since I was 13 I was making earrings with paper clips and my earring hooks were paperclips. That is probably why I can no longer wear earrings althe time unless they are at minimum 18k gold or 925 silver - On my paperclip earrings - it was '86 so big bright colourful stuff was in. Ok my favourite pair of earrings was the ones with the glass tiles, then the Paperclips in second, the butterflies in third and hearts last. I too despise that glue - I use E6000 now or another very similar to it. I always thoroughly enjoy your tutorials as they give so many ideas on what I can do with objects and things I know Ive seen places that are cheap or free that I can use to be creative with - and the best bits are the ones Ive saved for 'that will be handy one day' and my mother has rolled her eyes at me or someone else with a 'oh god you are so like your grandmother' hehe see, it came in handy, i didnt have to go buy it, now its useful, and I can get another group of stuff ready to photograph and put up for sale.

[@SecretSquirrelDunDun]

I love the tiny heart earring back idea! I recently, quite foolishly, squeezed a tube of E6000... all over my kitten. My poor kitty! She's totally fine now and the hair we had to shave off has since grown back... be careful! Lol

[@carolyncoleman9504]

Yes, valentines day, coming!❤

[@shawnatroyer1411]

I found this video while searching for a trick to opening a necklace/bracelet craft findings kit from dollar tree. Glad it's not just me! I ended up cutting it open with scissors, and hoping nothing spills.

[@sharonrowland1196]

Matt you can make anything you want. You're so talented MATT 👍😃 Matt i wish you could see my stash of beads & Stones

[@KT-rl1dy]

It would be cool to see you do this from a thrift store too.

[@sharonrowland1196]

Hey MATT i got 6mm beads for Christmas and ive done made a Necklace and I also got some i think they're 2mm or 4mm beads too for Christmas MATT 👍

[@teresasmoot-moorer5314]

Still love your videos!!!😊

[@happymailmagic]

I'm currently your Newest Subscriber, but I really don't think that will last long! This is the 1st video of Your's that I've watched & I ALREADY LOVE IT!!! ~🙏💙🙏Much Graditude From The Carolinas🙏💙🙏~

[@lisag.8458]

Fun and Economic Stuff! And ...the essential hersey bar😂

[@daciasdiy1861]

New subbi! i just bought a few pair of wire cutters trying to get started on something. This video came up just in time .

[@dreamweavingbydiane5771]

Love it Matt

[@kimwilson2295]

I have always been afraid to charge "too much" for my pieces. Afraid that I would offend someone or something. What you said about regular jewelry makers charging $5,000 and $10,000 for tiny pieces of jewelry that all look alike, but "...and here you are afraid to charge $35 for a pair of earrings that are more unique than anyone has ever seen." That statement is LIFE-CHANGING for me! Thank you!!!

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Superb!!!

[@GodzillaTaiSun999]

I ROck dollar Tree! Slept on the Clips..Thanks for the DABADEE DABS!❤

[@allisonkeevers6076]

It's always a trip into the unknown with you, love it, Yes supaglue sucks, the gel is great, and here in Australia we now have it in a bottle with a brush like nail polish, which is much more precise.

[@arzellecolon7812]

Acetone on a cotton bowl or a Q-tip and it’ll rub off the glue

[@chipixie]

❤❤ The nail polish is the best hack. I'm gonna push my tryer more.😊

[@ginmilner1140]

Love this.

[@sharonrowland1196]

Thank You MATT for the info at tge dollar Store much appreciated 👍😃 Thanks alot MATT 👍😃

[@virginiaconstantino3247]

Use nylon jaw pliers on the coated paperclip or dip your tools. Or use finger pro tape on them. Keeps from scratching the wire. You are so creative!

[@chelseacaldwell88]

Best art/jewelry mentor in the world! You rock Matt!! Thank you so much for sharing all your tips and ideas!!! And your positive encouragement ❤😊

[@sharonrowland1196]

but it still looks good MATT 👍 I love how it look Matt with the plastic messed up a little it looks like it was made that way 👍🤣

[@SecretSquirrelDunDun]

Nail polish! I should be watching these in order, ha ha.

[@Georgana-fc4ph]

Love, love, love!

[@BeverlyTilton]

Brilliant!

[@carmengill6990]

They now sell the earrings hooks and backings at Dollar plus!!! My name for them😂😂😂

[@KT-rl1dy]

They have them now

[@kathycollins9510]

add nail polish drops to a cup of water and swirl it around with toothpick then with your beads on their little paper clip stands.

[@MattsCrazyArt]

Have to try that

[@debbiecartlidge6009]

Mat you could use a toothpick too

[@doloresgonzalez6988]

Awesome like always. 😊
