⭐AMAZING uses for 5 gallon buckets! Great for spring and summer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3WtppKtYtRrsNU

[@sharones6086]

Do those solar lights need to be in sunlight all day or just outdoor light ??

[@YayasWhimsicalBrush]

Shannon, here's a great tip my grandma taught me. Put sponges into the bottom of planters. They take up space, keep planters from overflowing and at the same time help your plants roots thrive!

[@terrynasso5142]

Well, I was watching a video on how to help your depression. I accidentally hit the button to go to the next video and so here I am. I loved every single one of your DIY's, especially the butterfly! This video brought me some happiness and joy. I've never seen ANY of these diy's before. I'm SO GLAD I found you by accident 😂 I subscribed after seeing the butterfly.

[@33piolin]

Working in the garden also helps depression‼️

[@kaydiannjohnson6323]

I’m glad you found this video too! I hope all is well with you

Eat healthier. Be in charge of sleeping habits. Counteract negative thoughts immediately

[@gypsygirl314]

Nothing happens by accident. You were meant to click this video for depression. Having hobbies has helped my depression tremendously! Happy hacking! 🎉

[@randleG333]

Instead of buying those water bulbs, rinse and fill a wine bottle with water and just flip it over. Can also use multiple as a border. The best part though, if the wine bottle has an indent on the bottom big enough to fill with a little water, butterflies can land safely on the side without getting their wings wet & get a drink 💜

[@TheDailyDIYer]

Great idea 🩷🩷🩷

[@kittykathy9532]

The butterfly out of coat hangers was inspirational! Wow 🎉😊

[@londawhitt6841]

😊👍👋 my grandfather and dad always put a little oil in the sand to store garden tools.

[@southerncharmed4118]

I do this too! Keeps them from rusting!

[@timothytull152]

I work at a nursery sometimes you have to be careful with the seeds from the Dollar Tree some of them are old and they don't produce very well

[@crownwithatiara5839]

Yes I learned the hard way. I had good luck with the carrots. They’ve been coming back but they’re smaller than they say

[@SaraGrant-xj4lr]

I bought 2 pks of flower seeds , there were no seeds , just a little packing material in it.

[@PsycheDismantled]

Yep, I learned this the hard way, too. Total waste of money, not even a sprout.

[@vonitadustylgreen2914]

@Timothytull152- you are so right. My niece sent me some packets of seed. I planted them. (I usually have a green thumb as the saying goes). I planted 7 packages and only 4 seeds came up. I was so disappointed. So I told my niece. She informed me she just bought them at Dollar Tree. So I went to another store and got a few packets. They are doing marvelous! Those little $5 tables don't last long either..... sorry. Sometimes truth hurts.. The rest of the video is awesome

[@joyceblack3639]

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

The butterfly is my absolute favorite. Butterflies have a very special meaning in my home.

[@teewrex7184]

Hey y’all! You can also use those mesh bags when you’re going to the beach and when you’re cleaning up when you get home, all you have to do is shake the sand off of the toys while keeping them in the mesh bags!

[@TheDailyDIYer]

Great idea!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@hayleyphilpott4146]

Your son is so proud of his diy 😊, hope he continues with it. He is a beautiful young man ❤

[@TheDailyDIYer]

Thanks 🩵🩵🩵

[@jannythewonderwomen2215]

Here's the thing...there are a lot of Dollar Tree's in my area BUT they are so dirty and hardly any products on the shelves. Yet the big boxes of apparently products and items are ready to be put out onto the shelves. Then some of them just doesn't have any inventory at all. Or only one person checking out at the cash register! The best store I go to I have to drive 35 miles one way. It is Independence Oregon. Best store ever! Clean, lot's of inventory and best of all friendly and helpful staff. You need to pass this info on to the managers.

[@katesemickle7106]

Wow I thought I was the only one that noticed this my local Dollar Tree is filthy !

[@momard9585]

Holy cow so many great ideas! I’m overwhelmed-I wish I wasn’t so “under-energied”! 😂

[@olganazario4247]

Great haul and thanks for sharing. Try looking into KZbin videos for sewing I am sure they have videos for beginners. My Mom used to watch crocheting videos on KZbin and she learned alot. Try it. For the lips....best is Vaseline and aquaphor ointment at night. I had problems with dry lips and I was allergic to some of the lip gloss. Worked for me!! Try it. Again, thank you for sharing and hugs for Fin and Pip❤❤

[@krisa8649]

For those who are wondering about protecting the metal planters: I like to repurpose old metal boxes for planters, using trash bags and a good couple of coats of clear inside and out. My favorite ones are the heavy 33 gallon 1.5 ml trash can bags from Rural King Farm Store that I get for my rolling garage bin. I push inside the box, cut it about 3 -4 inches wider all the way around, fill with dirt and flowers...pretty planter makeover is done 😊

[@TheAmyb99]

The butterfly wings are so stinkin cute! Getting ready to move to a new place with a patio so I’ll definitely be stealing some of your great ideas!

[@unitedheartsamerica5924]

I think glow in dark paint would be great also! Or metallic..

[@zelle408]

Perfect timing! I am starting to refresh my patio.

[@TheDailyDIYer]

Enjoy your outdoor time ☀️🩷

[@seanaames6855]

If you add mineral oil to the sand in your planter, it keeps metal tools from rusting. 😊

[@rese7878]

I just made those butterflies 2yrs ago for friends and family, and even cemetery. They loved them all. Just 1 thing, if using DT lights you will have to change the tops out each year.

[@TheDailyDIYer]

Thanks for the tip!

[@linaleblanc8288]

That's a really good idea for the grave of a loved one ❤

[@rese7878]

@linaleblanc8288 thank you!😊 DT lights offered that little bit of light needed. If 🦋 is in direct sunlight over time, they may need updating due to fading.

[@wakawaka8257]

Fill the mini terracotta pot with shavings of the incense that way it smokes wider covering more areas .

[@angelahaskell7850]

Maybe with that gazing ball/solar light...put some flower foam in the bottom of the planter to hold the light stick upright? or some rocks/sand etc. Or some nano tape around the top edges of the light to hold it to the top. As always very imaginative and absolutely cute designs!

[@debragrieve9402]

Tge hanging Chandelier is lovely! I would have twisted off the solar glass neck and added a few compact mirrors. It would glow a little bit brighter. BUT hello awesome idea!!!!!! 😎

Vanilla scented keeps away mosquitoes. No other scent mixed with it.

[@terrypierce693]

The crescent bricks could be formed as a dog paw. So cute

Your genius thoughts Is a budget for my gifts and beauty around the home🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉thank you ❤❤❤❤

[@cherylvincent8110]

Hey Shannon if I’m correct I do believe blackberries take a few years to start producing. I remember my neighbor saying something along that line. I would check into it. Thanks for all the great ideas. 😃

[@DebadooCreates]

Is that turtle is adorable! You could take a 2 or 4 round brush and add some brown fanned out stripes on each scute to make it look like a green sea turtle. When you had the round paver and put the first 3 Crescent pavers on, I was certain you were doing a puppy paw for previous miss honey, but then you kept going. 😢 lol. Wow, to your lil man. Super creative, & fantastic attention to detail on his watermelon with the stripes. He did such a great job! Love your ladybug, & wire basket shelves too!

[@pupawheelie]

Tip: put clean motor oil in with the sand that you store your garden tools in. It cleans and keeps tools rust free❤

[@timothytull152]

Take fairy lights and wrap them around the wings looks very nice at night

[@kathleengill1273]

All of these projects are great and you hit it out of the park...so many nice and useful things. I love the trellis for the climbing plant. I think the paver that your son painted is so cute and I love the side table too! All of the paver ideas are wonderful! I love the buckets too. It's always amazing what you accomplish and you have amazing ideas Shannon!🍉 ♥

Solar lights - do NOT want to take away from what you shared. but did want to share that I was looking for something at Walmart and noticed that the solar lights there were 77 cents. I was shocked bc I do buy a lot at dollar tree myself. Laundry baskets - great for garden and growing potatoes etc

I see you're planting a nice little blackberry bush. I did the same thing 5 yrs ago. But my son in law just plopped it down in a lil hole in the ground in front of my house. It is now 8' high x 30' long x 6' deep. Every harvest 12 of my nbrs each get a 2 gallon bag of berries. TWICE. Good luck w/ that tiny little pot. It's a cute idea, though. I did prune them back last fall, but they came back even bigger. I'm running out of nbrs!😂

[@angierainwater6175]

USE CAUTION WHEN USING ANY METAL CONTAINERS IN YOUR GARDEN FOR PLANTING. If the container is not specifically manufatured for plants you have to worry about the metal rusting and leaching into the plants water supply. The plants can be poisoned by the rust and become susceptible to damage by bugs and other disease. It's good to protect the metal with Rust-Oleum and to either line the container with plaatic or use plastic or fiber pots for the plants. Keep metal out of direct sun light as well. The metal will become hot, heating the soil and potentially burn the roots of your plants.

[@tmontero8492]

Instead of pool noodles use sponges cut up. It will help hold water during the dryer days and still helps you to not use so much potting soil. I don’t use a lot because I like the roots to have as much dirt as they need.
