Makes no difference to me who you donate to. The fact that you are is all that matters! You have an awesome heart! Please don't stress over people that complain. 🤗💕🦋
Thank you Deborah. I saw a quote earlier this week... can't remember who wrote it. "If you wouldn't seek their advice, why do you accept their criticism?" Well, something like that. Excellent perspective.
This is the first video I have watched of yours. I don’t know where to start! Thank you for being such a giving person in your time and talent when it comes to journaling…this is my passion. But more than that ….you being such a caring and giving TEACHER!!! My son is a an Assistant Principal at an high school and it is a very hard job…..if he had more teachers like you it would be amazing…thank you for all the time you put in to your videos!
Welcome Tracy and thank you for brightening my day. Being a public educator in this era is a whole lot tougher than it was 10 years ago, for many reasons. I deeply appreciate your words of kindness and support ♥️
The world could use more Cori Dahmen’s! You are such an amazingly kind and generous soul. As far as your Etsy shop, I say just list your items as you want and do with the money as you wish. I adore my ink boxes and would love to have one with 5 holes and spaces for both Archival and Distress w a slot. I haven’t tried to buy another bc I wanted to give others a chance, but if I see the kind I just mentioned, I may have to grab it. I attached a tiny magnet on the corner of one of my boxes for my glue pen. So far so good! As far as the Cori inspired Tracie labels, I couldn’t purchase them fast enough. They are perfect! I do have loads of stamps, but I appreciate the additional ideas you gave today. Thanks for being you, for inspiring us and spreading kindness. Hugs from KY.
Hi Cori, thank you so much for so many great ideas in this video! I always love and look forward to each and every one of your videos! You are such a good person!
Take away: defining what we do as a “hobby” Mmmmmmm. Knitting/crocheting/sewing/upholstery/tailoring/furniture repurposing/pastel portraiture all turned into commissioned work/jobs. I was vice-President of New Mexico Art League 20+ years and it turned into a political push me-pull you corporate rush for fund raising rather than supporting artists!!!! Ugh! Too much for too long!! Burnout. So now….retired/resting… just building a collection of old paper…. It’s not hoarding…. Great Granny has a hobby!!!! Thanks for filling in the blanks for my explanation to my kids why I am having so much fun spending my time playing ALONE and not expecting to make an income. My experience does not measure my worth with a dollar sign. I’m blessed. TYFT
You are blessed indeed! Great reflection/perspective. I LOVE being a grandma (Oma) and I can only imagine how delightful it will be to be a grossOma! And our monetary worth has nothing on our heart worth 💕
I agree with the others - you do you. You donate your money any way you want; once someone pays you, it’s not their business what you do with it. And I love the box with both the 3” and 4” slots. And thanks for the reminder that we need to ‘shop our own stash’, as the saying goes. 😘
Cori you are amazing! I never thought about changing portrait to landscape to change the size. So very many options for those labels! You are a generous soul, thank you for such great videos. Thank you!
Take all my $$$! I personally use the distress pads. Right now I have them in stacks on my desk. I love that you are aware of your student's mental health. Your generosity warms my heart! Thank you for showing us all the ways to use Tracy's kit (I love that you requested it). Hope your training goes smoothly. 💛
Cori, thanks for all this cool info on how to use your items in a different way. And I say do what you want with the money you get from your Etsy shop. Giving to the kids, so great and helping animals great too. Keep on giving and helping others. You are the best. Kay from Colorado Springs ❤
I love this video!! I always learn at least one thing that's a game-changer. I love the velcro fuzzy tape on glue bottle. Yep,.....I always put the pin on my desk, and 20% of time I lose or misplace it. Glue is not cheap, so we cannot lose our stainless steel pin!! LOL I have a small stash of them, but this is great idea. I saw someone glued a tiny magnet onto top of lid, but that only really worked in theory!! So I often hold it in my teeth!! Bad idea! Haha! So this little tip is great. THX! I love how you use these new labels. Your voice is so relaxing,...I've had this video on 5X now. While I research printers. Thanks for another great video. Austin,TX USA
The fuzzy sided is much less bulky than the foam pad I previously used, and it works just as well. I can not tell you the number of stainless steel pins I lost before adding that bit to the side of the bottle...
Awesome ideas...the possibilities are endless!! Thank you for the inspiration!! 💕🤗 LOVE that you donate...I trust your heart for the cause!! I prefer the longer box that holds both the Archival & Distress inks 😊
I prefer the tool tray with both the 3 and 4 inch slots for the ink pads. If you'll take an order here, I'd like to place one... not finding them in your Etsy store. How may I make that purchase?
I've decided to make them all with a 3" and a 4" spot. The 3" ink works really well in the 4" spot, so people can choose what works best for them. I'm going to make some and place them in my etsy shop later this week. www.etsy.com/shop/CreatingWithScraps. Thank you!
You’re the best, Cori. Your videos, and you, are such an inspiration. The clusters I purchased from your shop arrived and I just love them! I’m not sure why anyone would care what you do with the money they voluntarily give you for your wonderful products. It’s yours to do as you wish. Thank you for taking the time to post another wonderful video!
What a great way to use up those labels. I absolutely love your clusters! I will be stalking your Etsy to get my hands on your boxes. I have 1 now and love it! Hugs.....
Just love this video. I had been thinking about purchasing the new Tracy Fox labels and now will definitely do so. Your ethos regarding donating to charity is amazing. I really don't think it matters which charity you choose.
Love these ideas. It seems I struggle to find a cohesive way to store all my ephemera since moving. I’m lost so maybe I’d I do these scrappy bits I can use my small things.
I absolutely love everything you do, Cori! If it makes it easier, maybe just a blanket statement on your Etsy shop that simply lists the names of organizations or causes you have donated proceeds to in the past, and that you continue to support similar local causes where you see the need is greatest. Honestly, what YOU choose to do with YOUR profits is totally your decision and nobody’s business. You have an amazing heart and I will gladly support you. As for the boxes, I really love the idea of the ability to have a full size archival ink and a full size distress ink, along with the little well for smaller things. I definitely want one of those! Thanks for all you continue to do and for your creativity! ❤️
Wow, I'm so glad TH-cam suggested this video to me. So much great information. I love Tracie's digitals and will go purchase the fill-in labels now that I see how versatile they are. I've subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Love that you donate your profits to various groups. All are worthy. Like you I was thinking of those students that can’t afford the expense of back to school. For any Canadian’s that are interested the office supply store, Staples, is accepting cash donations at the till to help families offset the expense. Really like the ‘old’ tape and what you do with it. Hugs and blessings, 🤗❤️🇨🇦
A suggestion- put a finger size notch on the thin strip between your ink pads. Easier to remove! You are very creative and you have such a calm soothing voice. Your students must love you. God Bless
I use the heavyweight Epson matte premium printing paper. It’s the one Tracie suggested and I get it on Amazon. Rough $10 for 50 sheets. It’s a bit spendy, but it is a great weight and prints beautifully.
I learn so much from you! You have given me some excellent ideas for the journal I’m making for my son’s 50th birthday. Thank you so much! I think it is wonderful that you donate your proceeds to various charities. I trust you 100% to on your choices! Your gift card idea is brilliant! ❤️ Shirley
Great projects!!! I like the larger ink box...I work on a vintage drafting table, and I like a little tilt, but when one container falls over it's like a domino-scramble! And my favorite new throw pillow says: "My Circus My Monkeys", and in that light, I think you should get to choose your charity...How can anyone take issue with a giving heart? ❤️
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. The bottom of the boxes are covered with non-skid material. It held perfectly when the cruise ship got a little rocky, so I believe it would work well on a titled table.
P.S.: You stamped the year with the datestamp 47:44. I would turn the stamp around and position the tag on the stamp. I think, maybe it would be easier :)
I just love you right back. You won my heart a few years ago when I heard you adopted a cat for your kids, even though you are allergic to them. You are the best TDRF!
You two are such a great combo!!! Good thing you don’t live close together… Can’t you just see you two in a studio Cori asking for something to try!!! Tracie you saying sure I can do that!!! Let’s go! As Cori watches… she starts her squirreling routine and bombards Tracie with all her ideas!!!!! I just wanna say you two are amazing!!! I enjoy watching so much!!! Thank you for all you both do for the community!!!
Hi Cori! This is such a wonderful and inspirational video :) I am not a scrapbooker. I love making collaged greeting cards from magazine cutouts and similar things but I don`t have any professional scraps. All I owe are cardmaking items. When I saw the neatly arranged and rich display of your beautiful "scraps" and images, my heart skipped a beat ❤...❤❤❤❤❤❤ This video inspired me to try some things a bit differently. Thank you very much for that :)
That warms my heart, thank you. Junk journaling can use many of the same supplies as card making, plus as many more as you have and enjoy. Happy creating!
I received my black box this week and I love it. It is very generous of you to donate funds to whatever you feel is important. I don't know how you have so much energy to make all these wood boxes and paper crafts too!! I love how you organize your bits and wondered did you make all those craft trays?? I just can't seem to get my paper organized in any useful manner! You have an awesome channel!
Thank you Rose. I got those craft trays from a PNW craft store, Craft Warehouse. I wasn't loving the function of other options I've tried. These work well for me.
You are a Saint. Most educators are, because it is not a career for the meek. I too am an educator. I would love one of your ink boxes, as I am always striving for organization on my creative table. But, everything you have sells out. One day I will get lucky. 🙂 Love Schoology! When I was a single mom with four kids, back to school shopping filled my stomach with dread. After a summer with no salary, it was difficult to support my babies AND buy supplies for my students. You donate to whatever cause you want to. 3 x 4 would be sweet. One day. Thanks for the inspiration!
I have two of her ink boxes. If I am lucky enough to get a 5 hole one and spaces for both Distress and Archival, I’ll send you one that I have now. We need more teachers like you.
I also have 2 of her boxes... Would donate them or one to someone else if I can get a 3"& 4" box... Thx 🙏 Cori... 👑🤙🎶🐝😎🌹... Sincerely sincere... Miss Judith 🌹 🎶 🤙
Awww man, I so remember those days! I also have four kids and back to school always gave me angst. My parents and sister always took the kids shopping when they were young and it was a HUGE blessing! Thank you for your kindness and your commitment. If you have favorite Schoology videos I'd love a recommendation. I've been watching so many, and I need to master this LMS.
@@CoriDahmen Schoology is really just setting up file folders and sub folders for each class. My high schooler’s classes all communicate directly with students through it as well. I have even done threaded homework tasks for reflection on the literature we were reading at the time. But when I first started using the platform, our IT guy sat down with me numerous times. Have a solid year!
Honey, you donate the money you make to whatever charity you see fit. If you are donating to a charity, no one can fault you for that and should have no say on it.
I would vote 4 “ hole and 3 “ hole for the new ink caddy’s. I think that’s how I would prefer it. Love these labels. Good suggestion and we all thank you!
Thank you for the feedback Jamie. Honestly, I've been hesitant because making them is so spendy. With the rising cost of everything, even the shipping on theseis $10. But, I love mine and this new size/configuration has been handy. I love being outside, working with wood, so I will make more 😊
Cori, I would just suggest you charge us what they are costing you and also YOU need to make a little profit on them too, so add that in also. You have a great product and if you enjoy making them, we will always be willing to pay you for your product and time!
@@CoriDahmen... Hey, Miss Cori... Count me in... Love the 3-4" with all the configuration of things it's able to hold... Sincerely sincere... Miss Judith 🌹 🎶 🤙
Great explanation and inspiring ideas, Cori! Thank you so much for all you do. I think you are a wonderful person for the gifts that are in you that you share with the community and the charities that you give to. I don't always comment, but always watch you on my big TV! Have a great day! ~Gena
IMHO, once someone pays you on Etsy, that money is yours. You can give it to whatever charity you want, buy a new pair of shoes, get a massage...we should have no say in what you do with the money. So I would say, you don't need to tell us which cause you've selected every time, unless you want to. On a crafting note, I LOVE your desktop caddies and the other trays you use for your labels, etc. (I use a muffin tin as well for tiny bits). I will be anxiously awaiting your listing the caddies. I like the 3" and 4" squares with the extra little space the best but would probably buy both types, given the chance. And your video on the use of Tracie's labels was awesome. Masking the ink stamps was a big AHA for me. Thanks for sharing everything with us, Cori. I can tell you're a great teacher. :O)
Thank you Deb. I appreciate your response and perspective. Lol about the shoes. The only ones I’ve needed to replace in the last few years are my house slippers 🤣
I absolutely Love your organization of items...WOW, fabulous ideas. 😊 The 3 & 4 in I'd prefer or a variety but more of the larger one. They are fabulous 👌, I'd be interested I'm sure. The reasons is great children need to be able to be proud as well no matter their situation ❤️. Love your channel.
Ohh Cori,you are such a superstar! absolutely loved this video,you enthused all the way through your inspiring shares thank you so much xx You are amazing to donate,it would not matter to me to whom,your latest tray make is wonderful,the bigger one,I would love,but maybe make a mix for people to choose,and now I'm going to tell you off lol,in a loving wày of course,seeing the labels at 4am,I immediately rushed to Etsy and purchased with some birthday pennies I was blessed to be given,yes I'm blaming you lol..question please,what make of the brush pens did you use in the video?love from the UK xx
Lol! Thank you for supporting Tracie! She is incredible and she does and gives so much! Plus, I consider those labels a must-have 😊 The pens I use are the Zig Clean Brush markers, but any non-permanent pens work well.
4 & 3 inch. I like the little compartment in the front! Thanks for the ideas. I am just starting and I don't have all the stamps, words, etc. Now I know how to use the small alphabet stickers! 😃💖👍
Hello Darnice and welcome to this very fun and addictive hobby! I'm happy to hear that you found something new that will be helpful to you and allow you to utilize what you have 😊
I love the 3" x 4" box, and will buy one in a heartbeat when I find them in your Etsy store. I'm a late comer...have just found you recently, and can't begin to tell you how much I've learned. You are truly amazing, and so generous with your ideas and instructon. Thanks for all you do!!!
You're too kind Michelle. Thank you! I've got a supply of 3/4" plywood and I've had another ink box/storage supply idea so I'm hopeful I'll be able to list them soon!
LOVE your organizer trays, I have mine in pencil boxes, spend more time looking into each one, so now how do you organizer your trays and boxes, shelves, drawers?
Fortunately, I'm able to have everything at hand or close to it. The trays are the most often used little bits. Cards and tags and library pockets and larger pieces are in old sewing machine drawers. I enjoy using vintage pieces to store things.
Hello Cori, I have been enjoying your videos and love the ones with making things out of scraps. I have also been organizing all my scraps into similar sizes and textures just like you do, but I could not think where to buy trays with square individual compartments like you have, so I figured out a way to make my own out of paper (folding into small open boxes) and any sort of flat cardboard trays such as the trays chocolates come in. I would love to show you how I do these and you could perhaps make a video showing this technique to your subscribers.
I love all the lovely ideas you have for labels. What kind of pens did you use on that floral stamp (mounted on an acrylic block)? The colors were in purple and green.
This is the first video I've seen from you. his newby just subscribed. Thanks for sharing. Lots of great ideas. You donate to where your heart leads you. I like the larger size for supplies.
🥰I love your donation ideas!!!! And that you have different things to donate for at different times.❤❤Maybe you could include a card and/or page stating what the proceeds from that item goes toward.
Newbie here, what you do with your money is your business. I feel like once something is purchased it is your business and should just say profits used for charity and be done with it. I am new and entrust you will qualified charities or whom you think could use it. Seriously Charity is the only thing you need to say.
I love your organization! I keep changing mine and it still is so much a mess 😮- you are an amazing person to donate your funds! I agree with everyone else - you chose what you like ! I just purchased these labels - you gave great ideas ❤ thank you Cori!
I absolutely love your ideas. They really inspire me to go into my art room tonight. I loved the tape that you aged. When you said use office tape I’m not sure what it is. Is it shiny, or the matt finished Scotch tape?
I love your work and like to actually hear what you got to say, but....there's always a but. You shout out to this t.f. is almost making me turn the station. I hope she knows how valuable you are to her benefit. I am not a hater, just more of a self supporter
I adore Tracie Fox and her amazing digitals. I know there are several wonderful digi content creators out there, but I know I can count on Tracie to make excellent items at fair prices, so she is my got to.
If a person has a Cricut, they can upload the labels to the Design Space and put whatever they want in the label. I sure wish there was a way to emboss the Cricut designed sentiments and labels.
The wooden ones are from Craft Warehouse, though some have told me they are also available through Amazon. The older metal and wooden pieces were found at antique malls and estate sales.
I’m in agreement with several others, donate the proceeds to whatever charity you choose! For the boxes, I’d LOVE one with a three + four inches openings, since a distress and archival bunk are musts for my projects! Love your videos, thank you!
Cori, I love to watch your videos as you are so passionate about it and sharing your knowledge with others! Due to health I stopped watching TH-cam for a few months so I'm watching some of the videos I missed. TFS! I have purchased from you in the past and I think it's wonderful that you donate the proceeds! You are so kind and generous. My opinion is that we are paying you for the product we want and how you spend that money is up to you. Hugs from South Dakota.
Cori, I think your donation ideas are fantastic! In fact, I’m more inclined to buy from vendors, crafters that do try to improve the world around us, especially as it relates to children and the elderly. Keep up the great work. Thank you so much for your informative and inspiring videos. 😊
From a quite large law enforcement family…. THANK YOU for addressing the “shop with a cop”. I will tell you, the majority of officers DO NOT agree with this. These families and particularly the children are paying with their dignity. Appearing in front of a news camera crew is (in my humble opinion) such a “look at me and all my good deeds” sort of persona. Thank you for brain storming new ideas!
Thank you, Sandra and welcome! I think, most often, options are a good thing. In creating, in experiencing life and in serving others. I'm just grateful that there are a huge variety of approaches available and that people can find what works best for their style. Take care and happy creating!
I’m a newbie follower. Love your organization! Question: where do you get your oxide ink/brush holder? Is it custom made or did you purchase it from a vendor?
Hello Deborah and welcome! I designed and made the ink box. I've got a few done in varying sizes. I'll share them soon and give details on how to purchase one, if you're interested. Thank you!

@@CoriDahmen that is certainly worth remembering!
Wonderful ideas, Cori, love this video and love Traci's labels. As for the ink box, I love the one that holds both Distress and Archival.
Thank you for the feedback Christine, I appreciate it!
I prefer the two sizes 3 and 4 for ink and I would prefer the stain because I have eye issues which make it difficult to see on black.
This is the first video I have watched of yours. I don’t know where to start! Thank you for being such a giving person in your time and talent when it comes to journaling…this is my passion.

Thank you and great suggestion ♥️
What weight paper do you print your labels on?? Cardstock??
I use the heavyweight Epson matte premium printing paper. It’s the one Tracie suggested and I get it on Amazon. Rough $10 for 50 sheets. It’s a bit spendy, but it is a great weight and prints beautifully.
I learn so much from you! You have given me some excellent ideas for the journal I’m making for my son’s 50th birthday. Thank you so much!
I think it is wonderful that you donate your proceeds to various charities. I trust you 100% to on your choices! Your gift card idea is brilliant!
❤️ Shirley
Thank you Shirley and what a fabulous 50th birthday gift 💕
Great projects!!! I like the larger ink box...I work on a vintage drafting table, and I like a little tilt, but when one container falls over it's like a domino-scramble!
And my favorite new throw pillow says: "My Circus My Monkeys", and in that light, I think you should get to choose your charity...How can anyone take issue with a giving heart? ❤️
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. The bottom of the boxes are covered with non-skid material. It held perfectly when the cruise ship got a little rocky, so I believe it would work well on a titled table.
I love the configuration of the one that you have loaded up with supplies. The little side area in the front is great, too.
I am really enjoying that little cut out section. I will definitely include that on the next round of boxes.Thank you!
P.S.: You stamped the year with the datestamp 47:44.
I would turn the stamp around and position the tag on the stamp. I think, maybe it would be easier :)
So very true!!!
I just LOVE you Cori!!! Thank you for being you and so very wonderful xxx
I just love you right back. You won my heart a few years ago when I heard you adopted a cat for your kids, even though you are allergic to them. You are the best TDRF!
You two are such a great combo!!!
Good thing you don’t live close together…
Can’t you just see you two in a studio
Cori asking for something to try!!! Tracie you saying sure I can do that!!! Let’s go!
As Cori watches… she starts her squirreling routine and bombards Tracie with all her ideas!!!!!
I just wanna say you two are amazing!!!
I enjoy watching so much!!!
Thank you for all you both do for the community!!!
Hi Cori!
This is such a wonderful and inspirational video :)
I am not a scrapbooker.
I love making collaged greeting cards from magazine cutouts and similar things but I don`t have any professional scraps. All I owe are cardmaking items.
When I saw the neatly arranged and rich display of your beautiful "scraps" and images, my heart skipped a beat ❤...❤❤❤❤❤❤
This video inspired me to try some things a bit differently.
Thank you very much for that :)
That warms my heart, thank you. Junk journaling can use many of the same supplies as card making, plus as many more as you have and enjoy. Happy creating!
I received my black box this week and I love it. It is very generous of you to donate funds to whatever you feel is important. I don't know how you have so much energy to make all these wood boxes and paper crafts too!! I love how you organize your bits and wondered did you make all those craft trays?? I just can't seem to get my paper organized in any useful manner! You have an awesome channel!
Thank you Rose. I got those craft trays from a PNW craft store, Craft Warehouse. I wasn't loving the function of other options I've tried. These work well for me.
Scrap clusters are my favorite things of all, I can use every tiny piece and nothing goes to waste! Love all your videos :)
Mine too! Thank you!
Love that idea for a fundraiser! Huge need.❤… and I like the two different rectangle sizes with the extra spot…
Thank you Jessica! I appreciate you taking the time to respond 😊
You are a Saint. Most educators are, because it is not a career for the meek. I too am an educator. I would love one of your ink boxes, as I am always striving for organization on my creative table. But, everything you have sells out. One day I will get lucky. 🙂 Love Schoology! When I was a single mom with four kids, back to school shopping filled my stomach with dread. After a summer with no salary, it was difficult to support my babies AND buy supplies for my students. You donate to whatever cause you want to. 3 x 4 would be sweet. One day. Thanks for the inspiration!
I have two of her ink boxes. If I am lucky enough to get a 5 hole one and spaces for both Distress and Archival, I’ll send you one that I have now. We need more teachers like you.
@@kykategray You're so magnificently kind! Thank you for the generosity. 💞💓💞💓
I also have 2 of her boxes... Would donate them or one to someone else if I can get a 3"& 4" box... Thx 🙏 Cori... 👑🤙🎶🐝😎🌹... Sincerely sincere... Miss Judith 🌹 🎶 🤙
Awww man, I so remember those days! I also have four kids and back to school always gave me angst. My parents and sister always took the kids shopping when they were young and it was a HUGE blessing! Thank you for your kindness and your commitment. If you have favorite Schoology videos I'd love a recommendation. I've been watching so many, and I need to master this LMS.
@@CoriDahmen Schoology is really just setting up file folders and sub folders for each class. My high schooler’s classes all communicate directly with students through it as well. I have even done threaded homework tasks for reflection on the literature we were reading at the time. But when I first started using the platform, our IT guy sat down with me numerous times. Have a solid year!
Awesome room!! Great use of space!! Makes me motivated to work on my organization.
Love these ideas for those labels! I would think it would be good to make a variety of sizes for the tool holder. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your feedback Susan! I appreciate it 😊
Oh my goodness your trays are ahhhhmazing ! 😍😍
Thank you Cara 😊 Lord knows, I’ve tried several options, but these work well for me.
So clever to add the fuzzy part to your glue bottle for your pin! 🤯
Game changer, for sure. Keeps fewer bad words from popping out because I no longer misplace the darn thing 😊
You are so very very inspiring~love the looks of your creativity~thank you so much for sharing so generously
The little white flower is cute - can't find a previous vid of your covering how-to.
Honey, you donate the money you make to whatever charity you see fit. If you are donating to a charity, no one can fault you for that and should have no say on it.
I went and bought her fill-in label kit before coming back to watch the rest of this great video 😊
I have been cutting out page numbers or words/phrases from old book pages and they look great.
Fantastic idea! Somany great ways to use and personalize Tracie's wonderful labels 💕
I think the 3” and 4” together is more useful.
First time viewer .... thoroughly enjoyed your ideas and subscribed. Thank you!
Thank you Dawn, and welcome!
I would vote 4 “ hole and 3 “ hole for the new ink caddy’s. I think that’s how I would prefer it. Love these labels. Good suggestion and we all thank you!
Ditto... From Miss Judith 🌹.... Thx 🙏 🎉 🐝 😎 🌹
Thank you for the feedback Jamie. Honestly, I've been hesitant because making them is so spendy. With the rising cost of everything, even the shipping on theseis $10. But, I love mine and this new size/configuration has been handy. I love being outside, working with wood, so I will make more 😊
Cori, I would just suggest you charge us what they are costing you and also YOU need to make a little profit on them too, so add that in also. You have a great product and if you enjoy making them, we will always be willing to pay you for your product and time!
@@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS you are too kind. They do fit in the flat-rate bubble mailers, so I can charge a flat $10 for that 😊
@@CoriDahmen... Hey, Miss Cori... Count me in... Love the 3-4" with all the configuration of things it's able to hold... Sincerely sincere... Miss Judith 🌹 🎶 🤙
Great explanation and inspiring ideas, Cori! Thank you so much for all you do. I think you are a wonderful person for the gifts that are in you that you share with the community and the charities that you give to. I don't always comment, but always watch you on my big TV! Have a great day! ~Gena
Thank you Gena 💕
I loved this video! So inspiring! 🦋🦋🦋 Question: Tried to find your etsy shop, and having issues! Do you have a link?
Thank you and yes. This should work. Maybe 😊 www.Etsy.com/shop/CreatingWithScraps
Just found you. What a wonderful video, to start with. Thank-you, for adding the info, newbie’s don’t know about. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hello and welcome Kari-Anne!
IMHO, once someone pays you on Etsy, that money is yours. You can give it to whatever charity you want, buy a new pair of shoes, get a massage...we should have no say in what you do with the money. So I would say, you don't need to tell us which cause you've selected every time, unless you want to. On a crafting note, I LOVE your desktop caddies and the other trays you use for your labels, etc. (I use a muffin tin as well for tiny bits). I will be anxiously awaiting your listing the caddies. I like the 3" and 4" squares with the extra little space the best but would probably buy both types, given the chance. And your video on the use of Tracie's labels was awesome. Masking the ink stamps was a big AHA for me. Thanks for sharing everything with us, Cori. I can tell you're a great teacher. :O)
Thank you Deb. I appreciate your response and perspective. Lol about the shoes. The only ones I’ve needed to replace in the last few years are my house slippers 🤣
I absolutely Love your organization of items...WOW, fabulous ideas. 😊 The 3 & 4 in I'd prefer or a variety but more of the larger one. They are fabulous 👌, I'd be interested I'm sure. The reasons is great children need to be able to be proud as well no matter their situation ❤️. Love your channel.
Thanks so much! 😊
Ohh Cori,you are such a superstar! absolutely loved this video,you enthused all the way through your inspiring shares thank you so much xx You are amazing to donate,it would not matter to me to whom,your latest tray make is wonderful,the bigger one,I would love,but maybe make a mix for people to choose,and now I'm going to tell you off lol,in a loving wày of course,seeing the labels at 4am,I immediately rushed to Etsy and purchased with some birthday pennies I was blessed to be given,yes I'm blaming you lol..question please,what make of the brush pens did you use in the video?love from the UK xx
Lol! Thank you for supporting Tracie! She is incredible and she does and gives so much! Plus, I consider those labels a must-have 😊 The pens I use are the Zig Clean Brush markers, but any non-permanent pens work well.
4 & 3 inch. I like the little compartment in the front! Thanks for the ideas. I am just starting and I don't have all the stamps, words, etc. Now I know how to use the small alphabet stickers! 😃💖👍
Hello Darnice and welcome to this very fun and addictive hobby! I'm happy to hear that you found something new that will be helpful to you and allow you to utilize what you have 😊
I love the 3" x 4" box, and will buy one in a heartbeat when I find them in your Etsy store. I'm a late comer...have just found you recently, and can't begin to tell you how much I've learned. You are truly amazing, and so generous with your ideas and instructon. Thanks for all you do!!!
You're too kind Michelle. Thank you! I've got a supply of 3/4" plywood and I've had another ink box/storage supply idea so I'm hopeful I'll be able to list them soon!
LOVE your organizer trays, I have mine in pencil boxes, spend more time looking into each one, so now how do you organizer your trays and boxes, shelves, drawers?
Fortunately, I'm able to have everything at hand or close to it. The trays are the most often used little bits. Cards and tags and library pockets and larger pieces are in old sewing machine drawers. I enjoy using vintage pieces to store things.
Hello Cori, I have been enjoying your videos and love the ones with making things out of scraps. I have also been organizing all my scraps into similar sizes and textures just like you do, but I could not think where to buy trays with square individual compartments like you have, so I figured out a way to make my own out of paper (folding into small open boxes) and any sort of flat cardboard trays such as the trays chocolates come in. I would love to show you how I do these and you could perhaps make a video showing this technique to your subscribers.
What a kind and thoughtful message! I've also got some "boxes" made from paper with paper dividers, and those are a super option for many 😊
I love all the lovely ideas you have for labels. What kind of pens did you use on that floral stamp (mounted on an acrylic block)? The colors were in purple and green.
I used my Zig Clean Brush Markers, but any non-permanent pen works well.
This is the first video I've seen from you. his newby just subscribed. Thanks for sharing. Lots of great ideas. You donate to where your heart leads you. I like the larger size for supplies.
Thank you and welcome!
🥰I love your donation ideas!!!! And that you have different things to donate for at different times.❤❤Maybe you could include a card and/or page stating what the proceeds from that item goes toward.
Great idea!!
Newbie here, what you do with your money is your business. I feel like once something is purchased it is your business and should just say profits used for charity and be done with it. I am new and entrust you will qualified charities or whom you think could use it. Seriously Charity is the only thing you need to say.
I appreciate the perspective, thank you ♥️
Very fun video to watch, thank you for sharing your creativity with me. I think I need to visit Traci's store and Which Craft Do You Do website.
Please do! Both are full of fabulous inspiration and great products.
I love your organization! I keep changing mine and it still is so much a mess 😮-
you are an amazing person to donate your funds! I agree with everyone else - you chose what you like !
I just purchased these labels - you gave great ideas ❤ thank you Cori!
Ummm, Jo Ann? My room is a serious mess right now. But, not for long! I'm moving my craft cave to a real room with a real window 😊
Qué bonitas etiquetas!
Hi, I've just found your video and I love your channel. Subscribed!
Thanks for subbing and welcome!
It’s amazing as always Cori. Eve writing on the Tracie labels will look amazing too. Love 💗 all ur ideas 💡
Thank you Paula!
Cory, I’m a quilter.and found sticking the pin in my shirt up high, is my solution to keeping track of my pin.
Great idea! I would probably stick myself, but that is an excellent options for many 😊
New subbie here😊What a fun and creative session! I’m so glad you popped up today!
Thank you Laura and welcome! That Tracie Fox is amazing 💕
I feel people are buying a product they’re not donating money what you do with it is up to you they have no say but that’s just how I feel.
Thank you for that perspective Susan. I hadn't looked at it that way, but you're absolutely right.
You always show me great ideas in storage, organization and creativity. I have learned so much from your ideas. Thanks
Thank you Carole, and I'm happy to hear that they're helpful 😊
I absolutely love your ideas. They really inspire me to go into my art room tonight. I loved the tape that you aged. When you said use office tape I’m not sure what it is. Is it shiny, or the matt finished Scotch tape?
Both work, but the one I have is shiny. Thank you Bonnie and happy creating!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
I love your work and like to actually hear what you got to say, but....there's always a but. You shout out to this t.f. is almost making me turn the station. I hope she knows how valuable you are to her benefit. I am not a hater, just more of a self supporter
I adore Tracie Fox and her amazing digitals. I know there are several wonderful digi content creators out there, but I know I can count on Tracie to make excellent items at fair prices, so she is my got to.
Brilliant idea--SO much fun to play with! Love 'em 🤓
Thank you 😊
If a person has a Cricut, they can upload the labels to the Design Space and put whatever they want in the label. I sure wish there was a way to emboss the Cricut designed sentiments and labels.
Fantastic tip. Thank you!
Cori, you should use the proceeds wherever you feel best. It is your hard work to raise those funds. You are amazing!
Thank you Terese. And I have another fundraiser coming up soon...
It your decision on who you donate to. Youvare so polite to ask. . So much love the old muffin tin to hold your labels.
Those antique pieces just make me happy. I appreciate your input!
Fab video. Chock full of ideas & inspiration. ThankU.🤗
First time watching your videos and wow - lots go great information! Thanks you
Hello and welcome! I'm happy you enjoyed the video 😊
I love your ideas and organization! How do I find your products?
Thank you Debra. When o have something for sale I list it in my Etsy shop. www.Etsy.com/shop/CreatingWithScraps
Howdy! Love this video! Where did you find your sorting shelves/bins?
The wooden ones are from Craft Warehouse, though some have told me they are also available through Amazon. The older metal and wooden pieces were found at antique malls and estate sales.
I’m in agreement with several others, donate the proceeds to whatever charity you choose! For the boxes, I’d LOVE one with a three + four inches openings, since a distress and archival bunk are musts for my projects! Love your videos, thank you!
Cori you always Amaze me! Thanks!!!
Thank you 😊
Cori, I love to watch your videos as you are so passionate about it and sharing your knowledge with others! Due to health I stopped watching TH-cam for a few months so I'm watching some of the videos I missed. TFS! I have purchased from you in the past and I think it's wonderful that you donate the proceeds! You are so kind and generous. My opinion is that we are paying you for the product we want and how you spend that money is up to you. Hugs from South Dakota.
Love your trays❤️ and the one for your glues ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, Teresa. That system really works well for me!
I love all your videos and don’t pay attention to negative comments you are fabulous from an oldie but goody
I like oldies but goodies. Thank you 😊
Cori, I think your donation ideas are fantastic! In fact, I’m more inclined to buy from vendors, crafters that do try to improve the world around us, especially as it relates to children and the elderly. Keep up the great work. Thank you so much for your informative and inspiring videos. 😊
From a quite large law enforcement family…. THANK YOU for addressing the “shop with a cop”. I will tell you, the majority of officers DO NOT agree with this. These families and particularly the children are paying with their dignity.
Appearing in front of a news camera crew is (in my humble opinion) such a “look at me and all my good deeds” sort of persona.
Thank you for brain storming new ideas!
Oh! Also.. I just found your channel and have been binge watching. Love your craft style and your video style both, and can’t wait to watch more! ❤️
Thank you, Sandra and welcome! I think, most often, options are a good thing. In creating, in experiencing life and in serving others. I'm just grateful that there are a huge variety of approaches available and that people can find what works best for their style. Take care and happy creating!
So many great ideas in this video! Thank you so much for sharing.
My pleasure and thank you for your kind comment 😊
I like the 3x4 or maybe 4x4 with a slot on the bottom like you have on the 3x4
Thank you 😊
I like the one with 4” & 3”
I’m a newbie follower. Love your organization! Question: where do you get your oxide ink/brush holder? Is it custom made or did you purchase it from a vendor?
Hello Deborah and welcome! I designed and made the ink box. I've got a few done in varying sizes. I'll share them soon and give details on how to purchase one, if you're interested. Thank you!
@@CoriDahmen yes I am interested. I was wanting it to hold one oxide ink and dabber/brush ( lack of a better word).
These ideas are fabulous!! I am very inspired now. 😁 can you share a link to these great labels you used? Thank you
My Laptop is on its loudest, but I can't understand you.
Someone else was having that issue as well, yet others said they can hear fine. I'm sorry that has occurred.
Your ideas are great, where did you get ur great old containers for ur items?
Thank you Betty. Most of them have been purchased through estate sales or in antique malls around the country.
I love this box, I like the variety of the two, Thanks for sharing Cori, I love your boxes!🤗💕🌻🥰
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback!
@@CoriDahmen ❤️
