Upcycle for Gift boxes: In the fall, we start saving back any cereal, snack, or other boxes from the recycle bin. I often turn them around so the printed side is toward the inside when wrapping a gift. Or, for a joke, I sometimes leave it show, and don't turn it around. After we open gifts, they go into recycle for good. I also hide Halloween and Christmas candy in the cereal boxes until its time for use--otherwise I'd have to buy twice the amount! (-: Enjoyed your ideas very much!

Great ideas! For that Christmas tree in the tube, try attaching a long rope to the stem of the first piece, drop it into the tube to the end and beyond and pull the roped tree limbs through the tube till it reaches the end. That will get the first piece through at least. Or for both, label the ropes on each, like 1 or 2, then pull each one separately.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

That’s a great tip! Thanks for sharing.

[@carrierodriguez4282]

The photo on candle = a favorite. I’ve tried it and like your technique. The lint rollers to stop round projects from shifting too much? Wise. May is suggest a silicone spatula to stir paint/ compounds? They are very affordable, fun colors, simple to clean and small ones work so well with small batch crafting.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I'm going to give that a try, thanks for the tip!

[@susanconner8166]

Thanks for the recipe for snow! I'm making some ornaments that need snow. Do I have to do anything to keep the snow from yellowing over time?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

No should be fine

[@jennip8585]

I know this was only posted an hour ago. ..I'm not sure if I'm experiencing déja vu, or what. But I feel like I've already seen this.. or at least some of it🤷🏽‍♀️ These are really great, but I can't believe you cut up that gorgeous live edge piece of wood for that lid. 😳 You've taught me some new tricks though, really great ones; for that, I thank you🥰

[@megan2176]

Some of these were definitely "recycled" from previous videos. 😊

[@OurUpcycledLife]

There’s a really great hack using shaving cream to create fake snow and works great

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Oh I’ll have to check it out

[@cyndimanka]

I’ve seen lots of these before but great info here.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Thanks for watching!

[@franceshoelewyn4499]

Hello,i was wondering if I could use elmers glue instead of mod podge??? Something less expensive 😊😊😊

[@OurUpcycledLife]

For the transfer no it doesn’t work

[@franceshoelewyn4499]

@@OurUpcycledLife I'm sorry I should have said what I meant. Making the fake snow???

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Oh yes! It will be fine

[@colettemartin4824]

Not hacks, ideas. Hacks are shortcuts to do things that usually take a lot longer but with same results. These are ideas.

Hey glue eaters, can you eat Mod Podge ? Lol

Do you have KZbin premium? If not is your lucky day. ❤️

[@alessandradevito6837]

RIPETITIVA😵‍💫

[@tinayanotitinaro7569]

What type of paper did you use in the first video? What was it in weight?… was that regular printer paper?

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes juts cheap computer paper

[@lorifetzer924]

These were inspiring. However the amount of commercials were ridiculous. I don't know if you control that or you tube does, but ugh! Sorry

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Hmm I will look into? KZbin places them

[@KatieWhite-rq7rc]

Best money I ever spent was to get a KZbin subscription. I have zero commercials. Totally worth it.

[@captgray2000]

I can't afford a KZbin subscription but I had it as a gift and it was wonderful while it lasted. Meanwhile, I love all these Christmas craft ideas.

[@katef6611]

Every video is the same unless you pay for your KZbin account. I love craft videos and watch while I craft. The videos start coming more often the more you watch so I finally got an account it’s super cheap and well worth it for me.

[@katef6611]

I watch a lot of crafting videos. Especially yours and the more I watch the more videos they place. I finally got a KZbin account which is the only way to stop adds. Thanks so much love your videos

[@cyndimanka]

Store your Christmas tree? That’s funny. It goes outside before going to the bonfire at my sons. Yes. Real. Fake seriously? Eco friendly. Not.
