Be Careful Using Vending Machines and Debit Cards
I am glad they did. I just received a refund from Arco for fraudulently charging us ,35 when we got gas or food. While this is a little different, there was no sign stating their practices on the machine. I am just lucky I didnt bounce.
Be Careful Using Vending Machines and Debit Cards
That is really good advice thanks!!
Getting Your Fabric Organized
I see what you did there!! And, yes it was!
Temporary Crate for My New Cat Conner
He is and it does. Thanks for that. He loves my little place and we are a perfect match.
Temporary Crate for My New Cat Conner
Thanks for that. I hope so, too. He found me when someone abandoned him, outside the dollar tree. They had been feeding him and trying to find his owner for days. It only took a look and a hug...
Temporary Crate for My New Cat Conner
Oh thanks. When its evening I set it up length wise and throw his blanket on top. He loves to sit and look outside.
Customizing a Wicker Nightstand
Thanks, you are welcome.
Spoon Rest To Keep Counters Clean

Spring Hat and Butterfly Door Hanging
Arent you sweet! Thanks. Yes, as long as you sit close enough to plug in your glue gun!!
Crocheted Doily Roses
Thanks for that! And yes, they will. In fact, I am sending one to my daughter and her aunt. They lost her dad/her brother in 2015 and it was his birthday on the 4th. Both get the white ones.
Crocheted Doily Roses
Thank you so much. I kind of feel like Sandra Lee (my name too, btw) and her semi-homemade. Crafts that are semi homemade are faster and often time more unique!!
Kids Kar Kit
Thanks! If I had started the writing just a bit to the left, I could have written KidzKarKit. Oh well...shoulda woulda coulda right?
Spring Pouf Wreath
I got them there, too. But if you find the ones in a clear plastic sleeve, there are 4 in each one. Here is a link to their page. If I had not found them this cheap, I would not have considered this project thrifty and probably wouldnt have done it. Hope that...
Spring Pouf Wreath
Thanks! If I had the T pins like I should have, I could have gotten more on. Live and learn that is for sure!!
Four Tier Votive Candle Holder
Well arent you sweet. Thanks! All in all I think this might have cost me 2.50?? Plus it was fun.
Tin Can Craft Supply Organizer
I just realized a better version of this photo is the first one listed on this post. Whoops on us, huh? HeHe
Tin Can Craft Supply Organizer
I dont think so. I explain that if you need to raise the base of the unit you can slip some lids in between the cans to tilt it back a bit. I think I still have the image and will add it now. Thanks and I hope this helped. PBP
Tin Can Craft Supply Organizer
Arent we a clever bunch? I think that binder clips might be one of the best inventions on the planet! Thanks!!
Binder Clips for Calendar Pages
Those are both great ideas. But for the dollar tree calendars, where the paper is super thin, this works great.
Repairing A Scratched Hamper with Marker
That is a great idea thanks!!
Reusing a Wicker Tissue Box
I love those, too. Another good one is the boxes from Velveta cheese (if they still have the good solid box on the bottom). We used to get commodity cheese and those 5 lb bricks came in the best boxes. I used to use them for stationary on my desk, esp the long...
Decorated Heart Box Crafts
Thanks. He was. And a kinder and more loving man I have never found since. He got to hold his great grandson for the first time and died that night after he went home. This is what that sweet man did on his last day. You are always too kind on your comments...
Camouflage Your Trashcan
Thank you so much!
Wine Cork Coaster
Thanks Robin. I am posting two more this week!!
Simple Wine Cork Trivet
Thanks. I love wine corks. Watch for three more soon!
Using a Can to Fill Zipper Bags
You are so welcome. I know there are things you can buy to do this with but that wouldnt be thrifty or fun!!
Sponges for Keeping Jewelry Safe
Yep. they do. I cut that off and use that for dishes. But when it leaves sponges I dont really use, this helps me put them to good use. This is what they look like uncut then cut to how I use them.
Clothes Hanger Wind Chime
The balls are aluminum. And if outdoor exposure is an issue, they can be replaced. I love this idea!!
Cans to Stabilize Condiments in Fridge
Thanks! I think cans and such can be so versatile! PBP
Magazine Holders As Printer Shelf
Thanks. I have been seeing the stuff they do with them on line for a while now, and I finally found two of them for .50 each!! Here are other ideas you can look at. https://www.google.com/search?q=magazine+holder+ideas&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiE44SNsOHfAhWH0J8KHT1QCYsQ_AUIDygC...

Thanks. And its a lot of fun to do with the kiddos, too!

Crochet Marshmallow Key Ring Fob
I am very happy you like them. Been meaning to do more crocheting and found that smaller items are key. Quick, cheap, easy for others to do if they want and cute!!
Shadowbox Frame to Organize Packaged Goods
I dont think there is one grander than this!!
Shadowbox Frame to Organize Packaged Goods
Those are good too. this is an actual shadow box and I got it at a thrift store. I love it as its sturdy, and because its raised I can also put things underneath. Thanks for the compliment!!
Black Lace and White Ribbon Pumpkin
Thanks. Then you will like the quick and easy ones I posted today!!
Using Paper as Refrigerator Mats?
I like the ease and the protection, but I think you can do one better. Go to the Dollar Tree and get the thin (or thicker foam ones) placemats. Easy to clean, replace and they prevent spills from going through the paper. Hope that helps.
Apartment Building Turns Off Hot Water at Night?
Judy is right. It is a state law that you have hot water, a working stove, fridge, etc. It is a violation of the Landlord Tenant Act that they deny you any of these services. You can actually withhold rent if they continue. Call them immediately.
Embellish a Dollar Tree Pumpkin
You are very welcome. They are so much fun...kind of like a blank slate you can do just about anything with. More coming next week!!
TV: The Thief of Time
I have to be on the fence on this one. I am retired, and love binging shows that I never got to watch on cable. I told Xfinity where to put it in 2014 and during a time when I was home sharing, I never needed it. When I got out on my own again, I got a ROKU...
Help with Injured Wrist on the Cheap
You are welcome! Yes, I have to slow down or lose the use. I cant imagine not being able to crochet so its an issues.
To-Do List Clipboard
One of the best things I have ever seen!! I put DO on my craft cards and add the NE when its done. I like your better!!
Gluing Glass to Glass?
Magnets might work, too. Yes, this is a good idea. No damage to the cart. Hot glue might not work for long, as its smooth on smooth. You can get gorilla glue sticks but that might be hard to remove should you want to.
Jack o'Lantern Foam Pumpkin Faces
I forgot to put the prices on but the package is 1.00 and the ink and white pen might be .25-.40 for all of them.
Easy No-Bake Fall Pumpkin Dessert
I have almost all I need to make this. But I will have that last pesky ingredient by tomorrow!! Thanks for sharing this. I just shared it to Facebook.
Homemake Gift Ideas Using Cinnamon?
My recipe for Russian Tea: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/23016/russian-tea/ I have made a great deal of it and used mini jars (2/1.00) at Dollar Tree. And if you were giving 60 people one each (or 2??) you might easily use up most of your cinnamon. Another...
Hanging Bananas
If you like hanging them, then by all means this is a great tip. For the best results, separate them from the stems. https://lifehacker.com/5967424/keep-bananas-fresh-longer-by-separating-them-and-wrapping-the-stems-in-plastic-wrap

Double Purpose Pot of Tea

Double Purpose Pot of Tea
She was chiding herself for wasting the tea from the pot after drinking just a cup. Now she makes the tea that she brewed into cold tea.
Shelf Life of Imitation Crab Meat?
If the surface is still dry, or slightly shiny, its okay. Also smell it. But if the surface is slimy or slick, toss it. I buy this every month and take it out of the package right away. I put it in a plastic food storage container with a folded up paper towel...
Killing Lichen Growing Between Patio Pavers?
I am guessing this might be moss, not lichen. Lichen is the smallest plant growth that we can see, and doesnt lift or separate as mentioned. But googling both will give you photos and advice to remove them.
Dry Shampoo Recipe
I hope that first brush is from a generic photo place. If not, that is broken hair that has built up on the brush and needs to be tossed or vigorously cleaned. Keep in mind that hair is just dead skin so keeping up with the hair care is mainly just giving into...

Provide Feedback About Online Purchases
I agree. Once, I sent feedback on a 4/pack of socks I bought on Amazon. They were amazing, and 96% cotton. That is the highest you can get. They must have loved what I said because they sent me another 4/pack!! Another time, I complained to a big-box store...
Bejeweled Mirror
Thanks so much!! Even if I dont win a ribbon it will look stunning on my wall!!
Popcorn Kernel Jar Secret Safe
I love fooling people. I have this I made and keep dimes in it. I have also used Pringles cans, altoid tins, and many other things as a safe safe!!
Tidy Cord Saver
Sure could. And most plaeces will even cut it for you. These are both great ideas.
Deliveries Are Left Against Door That Opens Out?
Their policy might be that they want it as close to the door as possible to deter thieves. However, if your complaints are falling on deaf ears this is what I would suggest. 1: Talk to corporate at each place and tell them you will stop using their service...
Making a Jewelry Christmas Tree?
And you can get them in glue stick form now, too!!
Pain and Lump After Tongue Piercing?
And lastly, dont wait for your post here to be posted. Days will go by before TF can catch up. Go on www.webmd.com or go to the local clinic. As for piercing your tongue well that is pretty much self explanatory.
Eating After Having Teeth Pulled?
When I had 8 pulled in one day, I was hungry but knew I couldnt eat for a few days. I invented Instant Potato Soup. I took the packaged Idahoan and made it with 3 cups of water instead of 2. Its going to solidify on your stomach later but it goes down with...

How to Patch Tears in Rubber Gloves
Good tip. But, I find that as cheap as they are, I save the unscathed one. Then, when its needed, I simply pair it with a new one on the proper hand, or turn it inside out if I need to cover the other hand.
Keeping Colored Water from Evaporating
UPDATE: Today has been over a week since I put these disks on. They are working great!!

Making a Butterfly Suncatcher Using Uniquely Shaped Lids
Thanks everyone! I so wish I had had different colors, how much prettier that would have been. But I needed that tear drop shape and only had that one color. I am so glad you all liked it!
Teaching Children the Value of Money?
I used Monopoly money to teach my grandson how to budget. You can also get fake money that looks more like real money at the dollar tree. The tangible feel and denominations help.
Catchy Name for a Caregivers Company?
I love the Gentle Hands. Yes, fun and catchy would work for shopping help or cleaning your house/organizing. But this is serious biz and you need a serious name.
Identifying the Cause for Spike in Electric Bill?
While I applaud you for your conservation, this doesnt really help them to find the solution. They need ideas on what to look for, as most people dont live as frugal as you might.
