Hey Jackie, I just wanted to tell you that you might store your batteries in a other way; the loose plastic bag might cause a short, which could lead to burning! Please stay safe!

Just wanna point out that the princess on the box of the Shitty Brush Kit has brown hair. I didn't see any brown paint, and, CLEARLY, there isn't enough green and orange to mix and cover the whole thing. Classic Crapola.
Jackie! I'm a new grain, I've been binge watching your videos for days, I'm not even joking. It's possible, there are so many videos, I can't stop watching! So first of all, you and Sika are awesome!
I love watching your videos Jackie. I had to have back surgery nearly a week ago, watching and catching up on videos that I've missed has been putting a smile on my face and keeping my spirits up.
I’m always singing “figure it out!!” when my friends say “let see if we can figure it out”. I pretty sure that they think I’m crazy! 🤣🤣 Edit: tysm for the heart Jackie!!!
I feel that Jackie and sika missed out on the pleasure of fuzzy felt when they where kids. It was such a shock when buying them more recently the details that they have. Mine as a kid where simple shapes and forms.
I got major throwbacks to Sunday School with the felt kit. I remember all the Bible stories on the felt board and how much I wanted to just play with it
As someone who worked at dollar tree we would get name brand items frequently. Some brands were wet n wild, hard candy, Revlon, Maybelline, Broadway colors, Kellogg's cerial etc. You just have to look. Got much of my makeup collection from there.
My daughter (3) has that same felt board kit thing. We use it as learning tool. Helps teach location (top, bottom, side, etc) colors, counting, and encourages her to come up with stories. The pink unicorn is also my daughters favorite, so good taste 😂
@@angelashortall9778 I've got ADHD too. But with the Methylphenidate I usually got my impulses under control. My comment was more meant as a joke. My associative mind starts dancing and singing as soon as I hear 'Let's figure this out'. My body moves before my brain can say: stop. My colleagues and customers know about my ADHD. I'm very open. It was a new colleague. I finally told them about @ Nerdecrafter and now one my colleagues starts silently singing too. It's like a secret code. So don't worry. You are ver sweet though to mention this. 🙏🏽
Does anyone else have "Figure it Out" play in your head in frustrating situations? No? Just me? Lol Also, Sika saying she has a dark soul with that grin was amazing.
When I was in Sunday School a LONG time ago they used to tell us bible stories using pieces of felt that they'd stick to a larger piece of felt. I always loved that and find it odd that when I mention it to people they've never heard of it.
All you need to do with dried or thick paints like that is add a few drops of water and stir it in. I've been doing craft kits since I was a kid in the seventies, and this has always been an issue. But this method works. Please give it a try on your next video.
Hi Jackie! I wanted you to know, with the crayola paint in the ‘containers’ to fix the dry paint, add some water and keep mixing! It normally should become paint! Great vid! :D
Oh the first kit, that sounds like drawing on coffee filters then spraying them with water And then you have a really colorful cool coffee filter. Usually we made it into butterflies, I remember doing that in preschool
Those felt dragons and unicorns are too cute! If I had these, I'd remove white edges, coat the dragons and unicorns in resin and see if they would make nice pins/brooches :)
With the felt scenery kit, another fun thing would be to buy extra dollar store felt, and if your child wants to draw their own characters, you could use double sided tape to attach felt to the back. Then they could put their own original characters on the cute background.
For those fellow "Grains" who don't know but would like to : On the Macrame kit, the knot used to attach the cords to the dowel is called a "Lark's Head Knot." But, Jackie, if you practiced more, you could get good at macrameing. It just takes practice. I'm not the world's best at it, but, it is quite fun and can be relaxing. Also, with the Paints being dried up like they were, it may help but may not, but try putting a little water in them. I've thinned - out quite a few Acrylic Paints doing that - but, you cant put too much water into them, though. Love your channel !
I'm by no means defending Crayola, but aren't paints in the second kit poster paints? They're water based, so water should revive the ones that dried up.
@@RainbowTyrant because that’s acrylic lol, poster paint is cheaper, not water resistent, chalkier, and fades quickly. That’d be like saying watercolor should be water proof because my oil paint is
I just got that felt board thing at my dollar tree Monday the 7th. I think making different scenes and taking pictures of them and then use them to start stories with friends based off them will be fun 😊
I've watched these videos so many times I now dance to the figure it out dittu and actually pulled the phrase "sharp pointy thing" on someone recently lol
Did you think to try adding drops of water to the dry paints? We used to do that when my daughter was little. Also, go ahead and suggest viewers buy some brushes at the $tree to have on hand.
It reminds me of watercolor flowers and butterflies made from coffee filters and water based markers or watercolors. Except we used a brush to apply the water for more control. Then you use pipe cleaners to turn them into flowers or butterflies.
JACKIEEEEE! So I just had my first cup of Butterfly Blue Pea Tea. You mentioned it was a great anti-inflammatory (I have severe back issues as well as arthritis and some other stuffs going on). I’m gonna drink a cup a day for a month with a dollop of honey in it and see how it goes. My kidneys are SO salty at me from all the ibuprofen I have to take, they would be your #1 fan 😂!
For the last craft with the rope. That frayed part is where two pieces of rope were connected in manufacturing process. I see it all the time when I'm crocheting in the yarn.
I got a cheap $15 kit off of Amazon with a variety of things in it. But it's good I knew what I needed for safety because it had absolutely no warnings. So don't forget the respirator. If you're willing to pay a bit more than regular resin. You can get ArtResin. ArtResin is nontoxic and created by crafters for crafters. You don't even need the respirator with it. Just gloves due to allergic reactions. Personally if I hadn't already gotten the kit & had respirator I probably would have gone with the ArtResin. I might get it once the little bit of resin with the kit runs out. Worth it for safety. UV resin is nice. Cures quickly & can often be used in conjunction with the two part resin. But it also requires a respirator mask to use. You can get a respirator for about $14 at the hardware store. I got mine at harbor freight.

It does
We used to do that, but make them butterflies instead of flowers!

When you see Crayola in the title, you know an entire block of salt 🧂 is about to drop! 🤣 Also... Love Sika's glasses! 🤓💖

Oh the first kit, that sounds like drawing on coffee filters then spraying them with water And then you have a really colorful cool coffee filter. Usually we made it into butterflies, I remember doing that in preschool
You should test food kits or strange food recipes with Sika. Sika enjoys food and it would be a good way to test if the food is safe for the kids.
Sika - that diamond is gorgeous! Loving watching y'all's content and watching your tattoo collection grow!
Man I can't wait for the "my felt!" Merch to drop 😎
For the party lights, I used to do this as a craft but with coffee filters and instead of dunking using a spray bottle
Anyone else got a Crayola ad? A couple positive reviews and they start getting really comfortable!
Cute glasses, Sika! Love the shape. Very unique!
I got the felt dragon and unicorn kit and used the felt pieces with resin to make pendants.

@•Fatima C.• no like actually thing not weired expensive kits
Use vanish stain removal soap for ink on your hands. It works relatively well when I use gel food coloring so may work for crapola.
Crayola really needs to hire Jackie to design their kits, I'm sure she could SHAKE things up over there.
It reminds me of watercolor flowers and butterflies made from coffee filters and water based markers or watercolors. Except we used a brush to apply the water for more control. Then you use pipe cleaners to turn them into flowers or butterflies.
It's interesting how Crayola told you to use part of the box and basically reuse it for something in the craft
You can also use coffee filters cut out into flowers
I think it's a record how fast I click EVERY SINGLE Jackie video notification! Love you girl! 💖 I hope your health is doing better!
I actually used to use the brushes from crayola kits as brooms for my dolls once I cut them down a little bit-
When Jackie said, “Crayola, hire me to consult you” she pretty much just said, “Crayola, please pay me to say bad things about your kits”😂
I love Jackie's always saying she's a creature of darkness, and her favorite unicorn is the pink with rainbow hair ❤
JACKIEEEEE! So I just had my first cup of Butterfly Blue Pea Tea. You mentioned it was a great anti-inflammatory (I have severe back issues as well as arthritis and some other stuffs going on).

I started with UV because it's super fast to use. I got mine on Amazon, but I know Jackie likes Sophie and Tophie.
I wish she would do some beginner kits on resin.
@@GUMONSHOES. or at least point us to a good channel for one.
