Love Cousin ITT!. I will have to remember him for next year and buy the skirts during the summer. Thanks for sharing!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

You’re welcome Kim! Thanks for watching 💗💗💗

[@dak7399]

I found a really nice hat on Amazon that looks like Cousin It's hat and sunglasses at the dollar tree 🌲 store.

[@dak7399]

I used a small tomato cage for my Cousin It. I just gathered the top together, zip tied it and bent the tines over. Wrapped it with the skirts, zip tying them in place. Hat I got on Amazon, sunglasses at Dollar Tree.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

That’s a great idea! 💗💗💗

[@teresaferguson244]

I’ve used dollar tree shrink wrap that you use on Easter baskets for the pool noodles

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

That’s a good idea too! 💗💗💗

Haha thank you 💗💗💗

[@Timetravel1111]

I always tend to appreciate trees even more when I see so many cool Halloween decorations people painting the trees 🌳 !! We do not have a large tree in front of our house it was almost a dealbreaker buying this house actually.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

😳

[@nancyanderson3738]

I know how difficult wrapping and gluing pool noodles are…I tried to do some for Christmas a couple of years ago… gave up and tossed the disaster in the trash and have a couple of noodles sitting in storage 😂🤣🤣don’t know if I’ll ever try again🙁 I’m a big ZZ Top fan so your Cousin It works for me😁😁😁 I think your yard looks great and hope you have a Happy Halloween!!!💀🎃☠️

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thanks Nancy! Actually next time I’ll skip the hot glue and just use packing tape. You really can’t see it with the cellophane bag anyway. And yes My ZZ Top man makes me smile 😂

[@JustCallMeMeghan]

Cute, cute, CUTE!!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thanks Meghan 💗💗💗

[@barbarafoor7468]

I love them. I made a cousin it years ago. This year I have to do some surgery on him. Some of him is falling apart. I also have made the lollies pops, but not for Halloween. I made them for Christmas and Easter. My outside Christmas decor is candy themed so I have many lollies pops in different sizes and colors. I also made the little dumb dumb pops as well.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

I LOVE candy themed Christmas!! 💗

[@brendacroteau]

Ohhhhh these are GREAT!! The cousin IT is too much!!! I looooove it!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thanks Brenda! I stored Cousin It in my shed and every time I go in there I see him and can’t wait to bring him out again. 💗💗💗

[@brendacroteau]

@@thedistressedprincessdiy lol. Id just laugh everytime i see him!!! So great! ♥️

[@bowmama8]

Love cousin It😂. I wonder if you could use a tomato cage as body? Pinch top wires and attach pumpkin head.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

I bet ya can! 💗

[@gwynneeldridge6329]

Very cute. Especially like cousin IT. Only have one hula skirt left, so maybe next year!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi Kristin thanks for watching 💗💗💗

[@lizsanabria5541]

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thank you Liz! 💗💗💗

[@kmom1441]

Great makes! Next year I am picking up enough Hula skirts to make Cousin It.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

He was fun to put together. Thanks so much for watching 💗💗💗

[@dianaschofield9101]

I thought of doing little ghost when I saw the pumpkins hanging in the tree

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

They are pretty neat out there. The ghosts would be cool too! 💗💗💗

[@Sun21Cat]

great job.. I LOVE Cousin It, now I have to go find some raffia to make mine

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thank you. Happy crafting 💗

Hello first time viewer. I'm Joanne Parker from Lyles TN. I love your crafts already 😊

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi Joanne! I’m so happy to have you here! 💗

[@kristinas5196]

Cuz It does look like a member of ZZ Top. That is too cool. ✌😎

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Haha he makes me smile when I look at him 😂

[@esmeraldagreen1992]

An idea to keep the lollipop shape is to use floral pins.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Ok thanks! 💗💗💗

[@uhn-nohn4272]

hint trim down the ends into a diagonal on each end and they will be easier to work with and be flatter and less bulky

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

I thought about trimming but I was scared. But I will try it when I make Christmas ones. Thanks 💗💗💗

[@uhn-nohn4272]

@@thedistressedprincessdiy Jay Munee I think that's her name did a really cute Christmas wreath using pool noodles (2) a hula hoop and garland, some baking utensils, and I think she painted some gingerbread me, but it would be even easier this year with those cute gingerbread and candy cane ornaments in Clay that Dollar tree brought out this year. If you like that think I;m going to try one this year. :-)

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

I love Jay’s ideas 💗

[@girleyreds11-11]

I absolutely need to know where you get your little Reaper man at that you have in your front garden! I was really hoping that was something you made and you were going to show us he is absolutely adorable!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi! He came from Target many years ago. I fell in love with him too when I saw him. 💗💗💗

[@TheRustyTrike]

Every video I’ve watch with pool noodle candies has looked like more work than I can even fathom 😂😂 everything looks amazing!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hey there! Next time I’ll skip the hot glue and just use the packing tape. It was wayyyy easier. Thanks for watching 💗💗💗

Hi Mountain Mom! Thank you so much 🖤🖤🖤

[@lesliehedges6100]

I’m new here and love your channel! Your skeleton head on the barrel casts a VERY creepy silhouette btw! 18:11

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi!! Thanks so much for watching 💗

[@marycervantes3206]

I found if you put the clue where the tape is it sticks better. I also ran a thick wire only where you put the stick in. I used pvc pipe. Lowes will cut it for you.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi Mary! Thanks for the tips because I want to make ones for Christmas 💗💗💗

[@girleyreds11-11]

Everyone online goes to that hot glue gun like it's the Beall and doll answer to everything and it's not you guys are going to be very upset when you find out that your stuff's falling apart not that long after you put it together. I highly recommend Flex Seal glue Flex Seal tape anything made by Flex Seal when you're doing outdoor stuff

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

You can usually tell when hot glue isn’t going to hold so then I move on to something else. There’s definitely many other kinds of glue and adhesive in my arsenal 😂

[@Timetravel1111]

7:24 it sucks having difficulties but it’s great for us to see that because then we can watch you and it makes it easier on us I think that lollipop turned out really cool at first I was thinking oh I was not gonna like it and then I really actually love it question is do you need for pool noodles to make two?

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Yep you would need 4 noodles to make 2 lollipops 🖤🖤🖤

[@nancybindert8339]

What great decorations!! I think cousin Itt is coming to my house next year, just have to score some hula skirts. Your outside decorations are positively awesome! Well done girl!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

I do love that lil guy 😂 Thanks Nancy 💗💗💗

[@mirandarevels2762]

Its ok because hot glue isnt suppose to be used for out door use unless its cold where you live e6000 is awesome. Hot glue out side will re melt from the heat and all your hard work will fall apart. Everything is super cute just take note about the hot glue being put outside in the heat unless you live in a cooler place.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Especially with the heat we are having these days! Thanks so much for watching Miranda 💗💗💗

[@mariadominguez2613]

Just love all of your Halloween Diys your bring to your channel. I would use a styrofoam ball and cut it in half and make it the body of a spider and use your pumpkin handles for the legs. Lol! Thank you for all of your inspiration. 💖💖💝💋

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Great idea! Thanks Maria 🖤🖤🖤

Looks pretty cool. Where did you get the little black skeleton guy?

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi Sandra! He came from Target a few years ago. He’s getting a little faded. Maybe I can paint him to freshen him up. Thanks for watching 💗💗💗

[@christinescreationsespinos8062]

I use gorilla glue sticks on harder 2 stick projects they work amazing.

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Yes I need to get some 🖤🖤🖤

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thank you Stacy💗💗💗

[@jenniferlumbra3853]

Jessica Lynn at home also hung the pumpkins from her tree. Maybe you got that from her?!

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi Jennifer! I really don’t know. I do watch her on KZbin though. I didn’t know she has a TikTok account. 💗💗💗

[@angeldust12]

13:30 Absolutely agree! Lol I’m in Australia & cannot find the larger ones ANYWHERE! I’ve gone online & costs for shipping +Tax is ridiculous. If anyone can recommend somewhere reasonable I’d truly appreciate it. 🙏 loved all of your projects btw. 🖤💀🖤

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

I found those at Walmart. I’m thinking maybe thrift stores might be the best bet for finding the old style buckets now. 💗💗💗

A heat gun used carefully will stick a pool noodle to itself without any glue See you tuber Stiltbeast he makes all kinds of things

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Hi Karen! I’ve never heard of doing that. Thanks for the tip. I’ll go check him out 💗💗💗

[@benkoster6334]

you should have used gorilla glue stick it works best

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]

Thanks for the tip 🖤🖤🖤

[@deannaallison3386]

Gorilla glue

[@thedistressedprincessdiy]
