My kitchen is butter yellow and my dining area is pale green. Those colors just remind me of home, my parents' decor schemes and my grandmother's kitchen and dining room.
@@marcysikes You are very welcome. It is also good for going around the knobs on the dash and the ledges of the windows. I like to keep a wooden back scratcher between the seats too. Not only is it good to have when you get one of the random itchy spots on your back, but it works very well for reaching something that is on the floor all the way over on the passenger's side.
It's funny that you had the cookie tin. My 45 yo daughter was here and saw my dansk cookie tin on the counter (with cookies in it. She said she remembers being traumatized as a child when she opened the tin and saw sewing supplies!
in June 23, I found a miniature Dansk cookie tin, about 6" diameter x about 1.5" ; at the dollar tree. I bought it to make a mini sewing kit. The trauma of "Is it cookies or a sewing kit? Is real. At least, for us Gen Xers and previous generations . 😊
My mom bought me a Danish cookie tin, full of cookies, to use as a tin for my embroidery supplies. She also got me a magnetic needle minder that is a tiny cookie tin. It made me so happy. We used to have at least 1 large cookie tin for our holiday get togethers when I was a kid.
Thank you so much Tim, I really really enjoyed watching you take us all through those great products from the Dollar Tree store. I enjoy all your videos no matter what. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
So enjoy your videos. I don’t sew as much I use to (now 80) but love seeing your ideas. Still have a great sewing room, 14 machines that make me happy . Set up so if I want to sew for a while I don’t have to dig out a machine. Wish I was closer to you so I give you my stuff hat you could share with others. Keep up the great videos, they do make a difference. Hugs, D
My mom used to keep her needles, thread and all in an old cookie tin. I still have it ! Price tag still on some old items (like zipper or card of buttons) unbelievable how prices have gone up.
Use a hair dryer to loosen the glue, the sticker will come right off. I would also put a lazy susan to the bottom of that beautiful white piece. It's very pretty for the dollar store
Found your videos during quarantine, you helped me make comfortable masks! Now my life has settled into my new normal and I’ve rediscovered you💖. Now I’m doing “normal” projects and you are always a big help😊thanks for being you.
I wish I’d known that! Lol. I have a huge laser and a big vinyl cutter so I’ve never used a Cricut. I’ll have to brush up on the consumer stuff. Thanks!
The report sleeve would be great to a sewing pattern in. Placing the pattern picture in the front so you see what the pattern is at a glance. The cake holder and glass upside down would make a great dining table for a Barbie!
I love buttons i have my moms and my grandmas buttons and i love thrift store buttons they have so many cool ones and i also have been collecting the military ones!
I hope someone told you you can't play blu ray discs in a DVD player, you actially need blu ray player. But they have been getting more affordable. Maybe one on sale at Best Buy?
Goo Gone works wonders on glue remnants. Just wash to item afterward before use. Also, you can play a dvd in a Blu-ray player. Can’t play a Blu-ray in a dvd but you can play a dvd in a Blu-ray player. So enjoy your dvd. Did you look at the $3 and $5 items? In the $5 items is a fat quarter pack with five fat quarters that are 100% cotton. You can get a strip bundle also for $5.
I buy the Jot plastic 9 compartment organizers at Dollar Tree. I put my sewing machine feet, zipper pulls, key rings and more in them. I also buy clear boxes there for zippers and other sewing supplies.
Need a cheap solution to storing price tags, all the different ones. I preprint them. I need to keep them separate, I just bought a beautiful coffee cup to store the fabric grips. I love them, but the company sent them in a cheap purse that won't sit up on my sewing table
I wish I had known that when I made the video. I guess I gotta get with my girlfriends who have Cricuts and learn some more about them! Thanks for the heads up.
@@timothytotten9409 You may find the various Cricut machines may be an added benefit to your business. I watched Jennifer Maker when I received my Cricut Joy machine for basically card making. She explains that knockoffs to the mats may save money but that they void the warranty on the machine. That’s the only reason why I noticed the mat. Good luck.
Found all straight pins. They were sharp and pointed. Straight pins bought at dollar store many had to be thrown out because they have no point on them. Go look. Totally junk. Don't work. My 10 year old grand child show me.

I always carry one of those duster things in my car to clean the dashboard. Just keep it between the driver's seat and the console. Handy.
Thanks for this suggestion! All that dust on the dash drives me crazy! 😂

Love the bandana/pillow cover idea!!!! 😊

Thank you for your kind words. I love that you still have a room set up. I hope you get a chance to use it if you feel up to it.

I still have my mom and my grandma things and they are so old and priceless to me i love the old stuff!
Love the shopping trip I able to walk do to injury thank you.
Dollar Tree also sells a great tablet holder in the stationary section.
Use a hair dryer to loosen the glue, the sticker will come right off. I would also put a lazy susan to the bottom of that beautiful white piece. It's very pretty for the dollar store
My grandfather was a mercer - he sewed men’s suits- you are a mercer 😃❤️

I use the plastic envelopes for home made patterns, or run off patterns and add dividers .
I bought a container of buttons that were an assortment of colors. I think I've seen an all white assortment there, too.
Loving all these ideas! FUN!!!
Turn that cake stand upside down & use it for chips and dip
Haven’t seen you in a while. Love watching your videos.
I got the fabric from the Dollar Tree and made Scrunchies. I get 4 - 5 Scrunchies from each piece of matterial.
That’s impressive! Are you able to find elastic there too? I wonder if you could use elastic hair ties in the scrunchies instead of standard elastic?
@@timothytotten9409 yes you can.
Thank you for sharing ideas from yr dollar store.
Love your vlogs. The sticky mat is for a Cricut type of cutting machine. TBE peel off film is to protect the mat while storing.
I wish I’d known that! Lol. I have a huge laser and a big vinyl cutter so I’ve never used a Cricut. I’ll have to brush up on the consumer stuff. Thanks!
The report sleeve would be great to a sewing pattern in. Placing the pattern picture in the front so you see what the pattern is at a glance. The cake holder and glass upside down would make a great dining table for a Barbie!
What a cute idea! Doll furniture!!
Thank you for so many wonderful ideas.
You’re welcome!
Love the bandana idia 😊
Love your ideas from dollar tree
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for sharing some nice ideas. You never know what you'll find. I like to use the jot 3ring binder sleeves for patterns copies.
WD40 will take any glue remnants if the label doesn't come 100% off. Thanks, Tim, for all the great ideas!
Great tip!
love your videos
I love buttons i have my moms and my grandmas buttons and i love thrift store buttons they have so many cool ones and i also have been collecting the military ones!
Great video!! Love watching your channel
That’s very kind! I have a lot of fun making these videos by myself but imagining an audience getting something good out of them. I’m glad you enjoy.
Awesome finds and ideas, thank you!
I love picking up yard sale or Facebook market place sewing boxes /tins. Get the most interesting things!
yes me too. A neighbor had many tins and hubby used them for bolts, nuts and screws.
Love these ideas.
A lot of good ideas! Thank you
I just had to add that my bedroom is decorated in aqua and basil green with red accents. I love red and aqua/ teal together.
That button box I mentioned before is actually a cookie tin!
I have started my own when I got married and started sewing!
Some great ideas!!!!
I also use a vacumm for cleaning my machines. However the duster would be good for threads, etc.
Such a good idea. I recorded a video last week with things I wish I’d known and that’s one of them! It will come out in a few weeks.
I wish we had dollar tree here in the UK.
I use the envelopes to put patterns in.
A great idea!
Awesome ideas❤
We all used cookie tins for sewing g and my mom used one for buttons.
my mom kept photos in the cookie tin
I saw a photo of a machine that had had the canned air used on it. It blew it way way back in the mechanism of the machine.
Yeah, I learned from personal experience and a very high repair bill. Oops!!
the sticky little mat is for a Cricut Joy I think.
That was my thought!
I hope someone told you you can't play blu ray discs in a DVD player, you actially need blu ray player. But they have been getting more affordable. Maybe one on sale at Best Buy?
I’m aware. Luckily, I have a gaming system that plays games AND plays dvds and blue Ray discs. I’m set!
Goo Gone works wonders on glue remnants. Just wash to item afterward before use. Also, you can play a dvd in a Blu-ray player. Can’t play a Blu-ray in a dvd but you can play a dvd in a Blu-ray player. So enjoy your dvd. Did you look at the $3 and $5 items? In the $5 items is a fat quarter pack with five fat quarters that are 100% cotton. You can get a strip bundle also for $5.
you missed out. someone bought an old button warehouse and had millions of buttons she was giving away here in Iowa
Wow! What a find!

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I've never seen you before, but I enjoyed the video. BTW...my last name is Totten.
Welcome, fellow Totten!
You forgot -- there are $3 and $5 items as well.
Also the air can hurt your electric section of your sewing machine 😢
#3 is a knock off the Cricut cutting mat.
I wish I had known that when I made the video. I guess I gotta get with my girlfriends who have Cricuts and learn some more about them!
Thanks for the heads up.

It's not a 1.25 no more , it should be called 5 and under store....
I noticed that a few weeks ago. I thought “this is a nice product for $1.25” and then noticed a $5 price tag. I mean, what?!?
