I always catch myself saying, " listen people" or "do Whatever makes you happy". I'm channeling my inner Brandi and that gives me a giggle! Thanks for your content. I am always inspired.
🤣🤣🤣
Brandi, you brighten my day, even if it's the topic is about glue. I hope you are having a wonderful day, too.❤
Awww (hugs)
Awesome, thorough crafting tips, Brandi! Thank you for such useful information!
I will never forget my very 1st DIY, making an Easter sign, with the bunny glued to the sign, using DT's pretty black and white contact paper, a collar with a cuuute first bow, and little red flowers between the ears, the 9!!! I was proud as a mutha, "Look at my first baby (sign), I made this!", and I hung my pride on the front door! Well, no one EVER mentioned that hot glue melts in the sun. About an hour later, I opened the door to take a picture of it, and the flowers were hanging on a strand (glue strand), some were stuck to the door, and the bow was on the floor!!! I ran out the front and back doors, looking for the neighborhood kids, yelling out "Who touched my bunny?" thinking the kids did it! THEN I realized the strand was hot glue bc it kept melting as I searched for the bunny killa! Well, no one ever mentioned that hot glue melts in the sun, so I had to find out on my own! I am STILL having flashbacks from the embarrassment, even as I share this story!😡🥹🫠
The End!😂😂😂😂
I'm peeing my pants right now!!! THAT was a funny story! I can tell you talk just like you type! Hilarious!!! xo
@@christinemcgovern2849 YESSSS!!😂

@traceydunlap I'm laughing with you..lol
It's true it really is. My mom worked at a warehouse when I was young making wreaths for the department stores and floral arrangements. She told me years ago about this. But, then I started watching CZcams and no one ever mentioned it. So crafting away I went and darn if I wasn't having stuff just melt off. She was like what u tell you. I said but they never mentioned it, I made it like they did it. She said WHAT DID I SAY..lol so I started looking more in to those things. And, it was incidents like this that lead me to what this channel has turned into. Because, I want people to have confidence in whatever they are making.
I bought THE STAPLER after struggling with my husband’s pro grade staplers, I love it so much… when I remember which end the staples come out of 🤪🤪

I call Home Depot: Homie De Pot. As if it's a rehab center. I also call Dollar Tree: The Buck Bush. That doesn't seem to fit now since the price increased. Lol
Thank you?❤

❤ thanks
Thank you thank you for this video. I am compromise in my left arm and you have helped in explaining different tools to use. You're so fun watch. Blessings to you ❤

Hiya, Brandi ❤. Yep, I am still watching, just on my Roku tv, so can’t comment 😂. I’m using my iPhone today so wanted to tell you that I’m still around and still love you 😘. Thank you so much for these great tips!
Did you SEE THE NUTCRACKER IN MY DECOUPAGE PAPER... created with you in mind!!!! Miss youuu
@@thediystruggle nooo! I missed it 😂🤣. That means I will have to watch again ❤️. I’m so glad you will always be reminded of me when you see a nutcracker. My memory lives on ❤️. Love you much, sweetheart xx
Thanks. ❤
Great information! Have a great weekend, girlie!❤
You too LINDA!!! 🧡❤️💙💚
You are so awesome! I wish I could sit and have a good conversation about crafting and selling your products. I’m sorta new to all of this and I could use some good knowledge, encouragement, and advice from someone who is as amazing as you!
You can send me a message on the website I'll happily answer whatever I can
@@thediystruggle I did actually mean like how to sell my products lol sorry I suffer with chronic pain and sometimes my words get jumbled up. Can I ask where you are from? I’m originally from Baltimore, MD, but I’ve lived in San Diego, CA since I was 8-9, it’s just your accent that reminds me of my mom’s. She’s was born and raised in Baltimore and she had a very similar accent like yours. 😊
I am a baltimore baby...lol I live there until I was 29 I think!! And I travel there weekly my friends and family still live there.
Have you thought about selling your stuff on Etsy? The market place? A vendor stand at a consignment shop? Or website?
@@thediystruggle I knew it! 😁 I was looking around on your website and I’ve ordered some napkins from you in the past. Anyway I couldn’t find the way to message you. Where do I find that? I’m sure it was right under my nose lol 😊
I totally agree!!!
They are great tips. Thanks for the ideas and tips. 😀👍👍👍
Glad you like them! Thanks for hanging out!!
Thanks for the tips 🎉❤
Thank you for the tips💜💜
I have that stapler, and I love it. I got mine on Amazon. I also bought a box of three different size staples. Thank you for this video. I appreciate you! ❤
That's awesome!! I'm so glad you found something that works for you!!!
Thanks for the tips! I’m a Ryobi girl too and hubby gifted me with a few things, and the heavy glue gun was one. Like you I have hand issues. Just had surgery on left hand finally so I know what it’s like. That staple gun is a dream! You always make me laugh and learn something new or another way to do one we already know. Love your hard work you put in! ♥️🙏🏼😁
Thanks so much heather!! It's amazing to know it works for other too!!
As always, I learned a lot! I needed this video. You help me make crafting so much easier. Thanks for sharing what works for you!!!
Great info mate 👍
I've always watched your channel but I'm a multitasker so your usually on the TV! So i watch silently, i have a brain compression from all the siezures I've had since 6th grade and it had caused me to have memory issues forgetfulness. So i always forget to go back and comment. i had to stop what i was doing today sir down get on my phone finish watching your video and comment comment today! And will start commenting from now on I'll make a point to! First off i just love you! You are my favorite crafter! I can't wait for your nectar video to air! Today's video was such great topics! Things not many craters actually go into great depth about i loved how you showed in the store cheaper products for people that maybe can't aford the bigger packs or certain brands i loved how you showed your favorite brands what you use why you use them you were very Thorough There are definitely some brands.I want to try out now.Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day for putting this video out for us.The information that you gave us! Question mark you're awesome.Exclamation mark and I definitely think you should name the stapler! 😂🦋🙏
One of my best friends I've known my whole life started having seizures when we were teenagers. She also has memory issues. My heart goes out to you my friend epilepsy is something very near and dear to me knowing first hand the struggles people can have with that. Bless you so much!
I'm so glad the video helped!! I think all to much as crafters we just want to show pretty things. And, sometimes the constructive serious aspect of making quality items and how and why gets lost in the *** too look it's shiny***...lol
I just want to help people NOT struggle. And, know it's OK if they are
@thediystruggle my heart goes out to your friend. Thank you for sharing that with me. 🙏 you are very kind person thank you for your kind words🦋💓🙏
Wow thx for the information, this helps alot believe it or not. ❤❤😊 My husband bought me the glue gun I love it.
I am so glad!!!
Watching again ❤. I meant to tell you, 👏 TACKY GLUE 😂.
Yes I have come to love this stuff
I appreciate all your tips!! Very helpful. Thank you
Great tips. Love your channel
Thanks so much! I am so glad you stopped by! Enjoy the rest of your evening!!!
Always love your videos ❤ think I'm going to have to go to the USA with empty suitcases, just to go to dollar tree and Walmart 😂😂❤❤
🤣🤣🤣
❤
Hi Brandi diy donna here love the video great tips thank you for sharing with us i know that i am still learning all about all this and alot more i wish you lived by me so you could teach me about thing's like this and about my channel thank you again
So informative! TY
💚❤️💙❤️
Your Walmart is so much better than mine…mine is a mess…always out of stuff😊
💙
So i have been watched your videos for a while now and just realized I was not subscribed so i fixed that..also i ordered from your website and just got my orders...oh my goodness your designs are so beautiful..i can't wait to start using them...love your videos ❤❤
I need to visit your Walmart. Lots of glue!
The E6000 gives me a migraine.Thanks Brandi
Yeah it's not my favorite
Yeah I find that the loktite sucks in the surebond glue sticks are so stringy. Yeah Ryobi is the jam but super expensive. My son is an auto mechanic and loves Ryobi.
Your son knows what's up..lol
I used Dewalt. Before I became a ryobi lover about 12 years ago.
I think Mohawk was another brand I'd use sometimes
Thanks for sharing all these great tips. ❤ I love your diys, and I am always looking forward to your next video. Do you have any tips for decoupaging? Thanks
Here is a whole playlist my friend. It is my specialty around here!!! czcams.com/play/PLapYhnH2rzuwedG3wFTZfE24VcxX2FjnS.html
@@thediystruggle awesome! Thanks so much! Have a great night 🌙 🌹
My pleasure! You as well!!!
I say Home De-POT too! 😂
Yessss...lol
I’d call it Stapleton.
Hahahaha
Just looking at your prics of gorilla glue sticks and did a comparison. The 30 mini pk in ont canada is 8.47, 4bucks more. Also i didnt believe my eyes when i seen a 10 pk for under 2 bucks 😮😅 in ont it sells for almost 6 something at Walmart compared to your 1.58! Amazon had them for way more. I get the 30 full size gorilla sticks for 17.20 compared to your 6.97 😅 wild how the prices differentiate andhow they have the audacity to charge so much 😂😂😂❤ brandy, your a blast to watch 🎉
OMG! You are almost to 50,000 subs!
Its going to take 3 more months..lol I should probably ask for subs one day..lol
@@thediystruggle I’m so proud that I’ve knew you when… ❤️❤️❤️. You are amazing and 45000 people obviously agree!!!
I am so proud I have not ran you off!! Like.. thats my miracle... (hugs)
Okay…but where can I get the clamps you use to hold the wood together while it’s drying?
The ones I use are the cheapest I have been able to find. Google Harbor Freight tools, or head to a store. I have one local to me. PITTSBURGH 4 in. Ratcheting Bar Clamp/Spreader is the Name of the brand. You can copy and paste this into the Hobor Freight tools website. They have a ton of sizes and are SUPER BUDGET FRIENDLY. Hope this helps!
I feel like we are doing an injustice to the stapler for not giving him a proper name? Should she name him?
That would be cool instead of saying here comes the stapler she can say here comes.....
😂😂😂
Stanley!!!! Lol!
Yassssss name the stapler! 💯 🦋
Great idea 😂
I bought THE STAPLER after struggling with my husband’s pro grade staplers, I love it so much… when I remember which end the staples come out of 🤪🤪
I use my hubby's stapler and it does the trick but I can't open the damn thing to replace the staples, he has to do it for me!! I told him I'm gonna get the one Brandi uses and he's just like "why? we have a perfectly good stapler already!!" UGH! Husbands!
