Some of the prices of these really add up, even if they are only $1.25. Plus if you don't already have the glue and paint that's costly. Some of these would be cheaper to buy them make.

[@kittenkorleone2918]

Didn't see one thing that didn't scream flimsy, cheap and dumb! Easier and cheaper just to buy the decor item and it'll look better as well!

[@bigal6924]

If you are a regular crafter, you usually have most of this stuff on hand 😉

[@bigal6924]

Also you wouldn’t believe the stuff you can get on “pay it forward” groups on Facebook, etc. for free 😊😊

[@flakathy890]

Especially the lamps. They can usually be found at thrift stores for $5 or less.

[@MessengerAngie]

As a fellow creative I just watch creative videos to inspire me to create my own projects. This is a great inspiration 😊thank you! God had made us all to create, so just get out there and make something and feel a great sense of satisfaction 💕

[@karenhill3970]

It's TRUE thank you for the positive comment🦋but I'm worn out trying to get creative on a dime around Here...😞😞😞

[@lilskipper4683]

Yeah the mat idea is great if you wanna slip on it on a hard surface floor and faceplant a wall.

[@nowaynottoday]

hahaha

[@lallasultana1037]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@GothGuy885]

People this creative should work as set designers/ decorators for Hollywood. their creations look like a million bucks, but cost hardly anything to fabricate. 😍

[@moonbellybaby6238]

Probably ideal for wedding plan ideas. Great floral & light ideas ‼️I have more fun looking for items at garage sales😎

[@rebekahbardsley5947]

Many of these on this video were new I had not seen before and others were repeats from Hometalk but that is ok too because a couple I have wanted to make but forgot that you need this or that. I enjoy these very much as many are budget friendly. I love crafts but I do not make a lot of money. I live in a high housing area my rent is very high my utilities are not included but most of these projects I can afford. Fondly, Rebekah in VA

[@karenhill3970]

I'm with u ..Rebekah in VA...CEPT I live in old neighborhood affordable but t STILL can barely make it😫😔

[@momcat5213able]

If you are creative and don't want to spend a lot on decorating, these are great ideas.

[@LETSBESTRONGER]

Flea markets are flooded with these items 😮

[@DS-oopa]

The little 3x3 box shelf is cute. Good use for them.

[@rebekahbardsley5947]

I have been wanting to make this project for a while for sewing supplies and beading supplies, but I do not know if you have noticed or not, not all the boxes are the same size. Same at Michael's. Their butterfly fronts are all a different size. I started putting my Dollar Tree boxes together and noticed that and it makes it wonky. So if you buy them while your at the store match them up good before you get home. I never try to give advice but, for these I hope it's ok.

[@DS-oopa]

@@rebekahbardsley5947 thanks, that's actually a really helpful tip! Good luck with your projects! 💜

[@rese7878]

Ok most of these ideas I've already seen and not sure if on this channel or someone else's channel..right??

[@HerAvenue]

The flower centerpiece idea is actually great and looks like easy to do without looking like a homemade piece

[@britlew5933]

$1.25 each for a mat makes $5.00, plus fabric (which may or may not be suited for wet areas)... I can get a better looking mat at the store for that.

[@teresakalb7385]

Some of those mats are $5.00, not $1.25. That is $20 for the mat.

[@britlew5933]

@@teresakalb7385 Wow! That's even worse!

[@joannasarcamedes8191]

you are ingenious but honestly you can find plenty of those things for diy projects at a thrift store . That would save on the cost and litterally recycle at the same time but thnx for the ideas.

[@jannythewonderwomen2215]

I have watched a lot of these and love most of them. Then we have the one lady that does the same thing everytime. Paper towel holder, fake flowers, fake jewels. Every. Single. Time!!!

Way too quick. These are clips from other KZbinrs. You're just slapping them together without given credit to the people who came up with these ideas.

Ya maybe we should send the link to the OCs so they can slap this with demonitization

[@Penneypepper]

Can anyone tell me if there is a place you can get the full video on how to do the ones you like ? It's so fast I can't tell what there using. They look great!

[@DeeTeeCat2023]

Search Dollar Tree ideas or hacks.

[@ladycoco4066]

Me: I wish I had a dollar store to go to because I love crafting.

[@TheUnvarnishedTruth-]

I applaud your creativeness and ingenuity, but you've got to start using other glues beside hot glue! One day you'll come home after a heatwave and find everything you've made falling apart! When you're gluing wood together, use titebond wood glue, NOT hot glue! And some materials require you to do some surface preparation so glue will stick instead of just coming off soon!

[@brieingram3636]

These are the best days I've seen. Don't think I need detailed instructions for any of them! People..jeez.

[@benbonesalive]

Don’t they have bath mats for 4 at dollar plus

I rather just buy the original item 😂You have to have the patience of a God to do this lol

[@ande100]

I like the greenhouse deco. I'll try that. The rest is cheaper when You buy stuff at a thrift store or yard sale with glass etc and not all that plastic.

[@RosieTime_]

I like those mats so I can use them on my stairs.

[@charlotteb6898]

Great projects and cheap ideas as well.

[@lilskipper4683]

That's amusing considering the overall price for some would be more expensive than just buying an end product. Like a lamp, just buy a cheap one rather than buying all the little pieces to make one, especially considering they used so many bowls to make it 💀

[@nowaynottoday]

they look cheap too

[@lizsanabria5541]

Awesome ideas ❤😊

[@hatredpony3712]

A few perfect examples of garbage turned into different garbage.

It would have been awesome to stay on one project

They have the original full length vids on here.

[@crystalsea72]

hometalk has some brilliant ideas.... but they are laced into worn out ideas lol if I have 5 hometalk videos saved, at least half of the ideas in those are repeated. It would be really awesome if they didn't splice in old ideas to new videos. Hometalk bloat is fillin up my playlists xD

[@AAW615xoX0]

I can't wait to try some of these

[@EclecticLensYT]

Or... Go to Menards and buy a single large mat for around $10. This person spent way more than that. Plus their time.

[@BobPaul]

I think they spent more on silver tape than a bath mat from target or BB&B

[@nanapam1267]

I would love too make that hanging light thing, but I only see you getting the little fence pieces, but where did you get rest?

[@Rhondas_Flippin_Life]

The full tutorial is on the channel with every thing shown in detail.

[@emilymulcahy]

The metal part I believe is the bottom of a large tomato scaffold and Amazon has the rest

China

[@emilymulcahy]

@@surpriseme1082 China is where everything comes from that you're buying, My husband works at a place that makes stoves they're all US made, but all their parts come from China, don't be stupid

[@barbaragrace1992]

We need a dollar tree in the UK.

[@forebackj1985]

THESE ARE GREAT IDEAS!!!

[@sandrastevens2793]

These are good ina pinch but, you could probably find a lamp already second hand and paint for less time and effort. I did like the center piece with the roses, etc.

[@try2bu459]

The headboard idea is interesting. The bath mat looks dangerous. The lighting / flower fixtures look great. The organizer with drawers is cute. The cutting board shelf system is wow! Also? That's a lot of material to purchase - between the supplies and items needed to put it all together. It does give you ideas, though. All in all? It's way too fast, and looks like a compilation of other videos that have been sliced together for this video. Where is the credit for the videos so that one could go there and get the list of items needed and watch the videos at leisure / better pace?

[@pamh.5705]

All these are clips from their full length vids. Do a search for the poster & select the ones you want.

[@stitcher4729]

Spend $5 to tape four mats together and cover with fabric or spend $10 and get a real, sturdy mat. I'd say the latter is a better choice,

[@beybslifeintheus494]

Great job my friend

[@hannahhorne8584]

That’s not dollar tree. Those are all from Dollarama.

[@bigal6924]

Sorry, my bad…some of it is Dollar Tree. Just saw the shelf label at 6:50 in the video. But the wire baskets and fence pieces and floral stuff is all Dollarama - whose items now go up to $5. They either need to change their name or drop their prices back down to at least under $3. Most of their stuff is in the $4-5 range which pisses me off. Dollar Tree is a MILLION times cheaper!!

True, but some people enjoy the process of piecing things together.
