The genius reason people are buying Dollar Store toilet plungers

[@mikeylorene]

I bought toilet paper holders and glued them all over the front of my house- my neighbors love it and think I'm SO clever!

[@animerlon]

Are they just on their own as a decorative element, or do they serve a purpose, like drapping ivy over them?

[@normalwhiteguy1555]

You glued toilet paper holders to the front of your house? For what? Lol

@@Billmull8622 For ART! Didn't you watch the video and all the other "clever" art idea videos? Next, I'm gluing a ring doorbell on my forehead and sit out on my front porch and watch who comes to steal the pretty packages I made to decorate my porch. (neighbors are SO impressed!)

Truth. Im still wondering why "made in china" junk is even allowed to be imported into the U.S. It's a never ending supply to our landfills because it's cheaply made and usually doesn't last through one good use.

A lot of these ideas are really cute. I dont know how many of them would hold up over time. This could be a great option for someone who really likes interior design but maybe just can't afford what they'd really like. or the person who is constantly redecorating.

[@sarahbernath]

These are creative but often if you add up the cost of the supplies they actually cost more than buying a pre-made boughten version. Also, there is the cost of the tools to assemble let alone the time it takes to assemble something vs. searching online for the finished item to buy. Time is money too.

[@AnnaH4R]

Yes, time is money, but some people take on the projects because they enjoy doing it. I have a closet reserved for items I catch on sale and save them. Over time you build a collection of things for projects. I saw a lot of things in this video I can improvise with and things I already have as decor. The tools pay for themselves.

[@indescribablelove3846]

@@AnnaH4R exactly! It is good for my mind and soul to craft🥰

[@sarahbernath]

@@AnnaH4R Yes, I agree. I have a very wide range of crafts that I've done and I tend to pick hobbies and crafts based on enjoying the process of making or doing them compared to the quality of the finished product. I was thinking how I grew up lower income with the idea of trying to save money by making it myself where as my husband didn't and he taught me to value my time and look at the total cost. Most crafts unless of high enough level to require skill vs. practice are done for the enjoyment.

[@AnnaH4R]

@@sarahbernath my husband and I both grew up in low income families. Fortunately, he enjoys working with his hands and has a collection of tool for me to use. He also likes helping me do big projects and it's nice to spend that time together making a vision come to life. However, there are certain items I fall in love with when I see them and will just buy, rather than diy. It's all up to the person and project, but I understand where you are coming from. I hope you don't think I was being disagreeable. I just wanted to share my perspective, because I find doing diys very satisfying and worth the time.

[@user-vr2qp2hi8z]

These kinds of crafts, while creative, are ingenuine and impractical.

[@therealdeal3672]

My favorite's were the dented copper looking container, the little mini greenhouses with the glass frames and the little nine box drawer cabinet for a table or wall decoration. Good for keys and doo hickeys. Actually two of the little trays were nice. The tray with the frame with the dowels lined up as a bottom for the tray and the brass cabinet handles it also had wooden knobs in the bottom for a base, also, the pizza pie tray with the soft rope swirled on the bottom and the rope wrapped chain rim was nice too. Even though some of the stuff is junk like the plunger 🪠 sconces and the garden basket with the fancy little edging plastic thingies looked cool but you just don't need something like that cluttering up.

If you're a painter and paint at an easel, they're good to use the wooden stick as an arm/hand rest. $1 vs $10+ at an art store for a special made one that is still essentially a wooden stick.

[@deborahrauth7629]

Yes my husband takes them and a block of wood drills a hole in the block and turns the plunger up side down and makes drink holders out of them some of them are pretty cool looking. He made one that looks like a travel trailer for a friend

Plunger one is hard to believe, but lets be honest some of the "table art" and vase things are definitely in style at your local Target and you are buying them. And one was literally made out of a jenga set, and seemed like the kind of decor piece that might be in a model home. Nobody said these DIY versions were durable furniture. I'd say not all work, but a few at glance seem pretty great as little project to spruce up a small space in your living area with that rustic Magnolia, Home&Hearth, Chip and Joanna style that all the weekend warrior DIY fiends are craving and it does it on a budget...
