How long do you think that's going to last come on now crazy I mean hot glue hot glue barely holds on some of the crafts that you do make and I know that I'm Crafter and I have to put some of the crazy glue with my hot glue in order for them to endure longer
It may not hold permanently, but may help to hold it in place while you're putting everything up. Or at least that's what I was thinking while I was watching it
If you're hot glue doesn't hold well maybe you're not applying enough or you're using a very cheap hot glue you could get the gorilla hot glue sticks they work great or you could use E6000 and hot glue that works wonderfully
😱 😱 😱 Absolute genius! I just cannot get over how easy some of these projects are. I have an entirely new outlook on decorating, we only have two weeks before Christmas, but I think I can do it hassle-free now. Thank you for your time in making this video! 🎄🎅🏻🧑🏻🎄
I love that these are actual hacks in the sense that they're a cost-saving version of what you can buy pre-made at the store! Inflation hits hard and so many 'hacks' either don't work or end up costing more, so this video was a refreshing change of pace. The flowerpot tomato cage trees at 0:28, metal bowl bells at 5:24, stack of gifts at 5:40, giant ball ornaments at 6:04, ornament wreath at 7:08, arches at 7:30 were my favorites
Yes. I liked those and also using the plastic bowls to make the big Christmas light balls I see in trees at Christmas. The bought version is very expensive. A lot of good ideas . I also liked the huge wreath made using a pool noodle.
Some practical hacks to prepare for the inflation and depression coming after the Christmas: Limit unnecessary spending, Pay attention to your health, Invest and spread your assets and while at it, always make correct inquiries so you don't throw your money in the wind or better still, get the services of an expert (that way, you give little room for error). Been using these for 2 years now and finally made up to a million. I may be prepared, are you? or you want to completely empty your reserves this Christmas?
Amazing approach though a bit extreme... You mentioned getting assets and using pros, if its not a problem. do you mind telling which asset type, if you used one or recommending a good one? Been thinking about doing something lately... I look forward to you replying...
@@chriswilliams2061 It's not supposed to be easy, the effects are harder. Mostly Stocks and yes, I used one, I literally know next to nothing on the subject. For the expert, don't know if I am permitted to go into details here, but you could look up "Stephen Joseph Kohlhofer". Not so sure he takes on new people right now, but you could try.
@Kentucky This right here is the second time I am coming across this name in a week. Came to my workplace for a program and it was lit. found nothing funny bout his accent though
I used clear gorilla tape to hang my lights last year and it worked great. And I’m in central Illinois and we had some good winds and a good amount of snow.
Did you have tape residue left behind when you took it down? I've used clear packing tape to keep ribbon and cords down on my white vinyl covered porch posts and it is a Pain to clean the residue, even with GooGone
@@kathrynriggs2489 yes I did. I’m going to do the same thing this winter using clear gorilla tape. This spring I will probably hits the residue with goo gone and then pressure wash as well.
Many of you are complaining about hot glue not holding up in the weather. There are construction grade hot glue sticks that will work. Acrylic hot glue shouldn't become brittle in the cold. Gorilla Glue has lasted in -16 degs in some instances. Do some research online & you might find something suitable for your needs.
You can buy these hooks that attach to either brick or siding and it doesn’t leave any holes. You can remove them when not in use. I hope this helps. ❤
I tried the hook tape on my garland several years ago and could never get it tight enough to hold my garland up in the places it needed to be in up position. Maybe if you have strong fingers?? Don’t know, but didn’t work that great for me.
Sorry hot glue does not work on brick, let alone anything else outside in the cold, once it hardens and is cold it literally falls off! I just tried it last night...the strand wasn't still hung in the morning!
Where did you purchase the vinyl sticky paper ( looked like shipping crates) that covered the cardboard boxes? I absolutely love your videos! Thank you!
Love all the ideas. Turned the music down, really got annoying. Wish I had a place for all these great ideas. I’m definitely going to try the Christmas tree using the tomato cage. Never would have thought of that!
I agree about the music. I wish most videos would do away with it altogether. It can be very distracting at times. Otherwise, I really like some of these great ideas. Thank you.
What is the black piping used for walkway arch? Thanks for ideas, wish had info on each, slower video & at least entire song so not same part repeated.
Hi I just wanted to say I love this this video is really cool and can help me decorate I should have watched this video your videos different from everybody else you show all the❤
Some good ideas, but I have an elderly father & attaching ANYTHING to a hand railing seems ill conceived! His safety is far more important than placing baubles on something he needs to lean on for stability.
Try Liquid Nail Glue (not the one for the fingertips). Weather resistant, dries clear with superb hold. Just wish these craft videos wld use better glue than hot glue. That's why most ppl don't do projects. Best of luck and blessings to you
Yeah glue is a rotten choice for any outdoor things. I use e6000 with a few drops of hot glue just to hold it together while the stronger adhesive dries. Never had any issues
It won’t work outdoors really in any weather. Heat just melts it and cold snaps it kinda. I hate they used hot glue for these. I get they were trying to just get things done and hung up but they should’ve at least put on screen, “use a strong adhesive like e6000 for outdoor decor”…..something! Drove me crazy the whole video lol
When buying Christmas lights make sure that it's actually hanging on a hot glue or a hook I mostly put a hook than just hang it up, it's very efficient when you want to save money
Please don’t use hot glue on electrical. Heat like that isn’t meant for electrical. Also, it doesn’t work. Just use hooks, Command hooks (check for weight limits) and zip ties. Nails work too but trying to limit the holes in your home is obviously preferred.
I was thinking the same thing! Watching her decorate outside in just shirt sleeves.... Must be nice. We are expecting below 0 temps and the usual 25 mph winds this weekend. Oh, well. Nice ideas for inside decorations though.
FYI: using hot glue for especially the first one (hanging lights on brick) is NOT going to work….unless you want to redo it every day or so. For outside you have to use something like e6000. You could put a little dab here and there to hold things together while the other adhesive dries, but not alone. It doesn’t do well in the heat or the cold. Smh
Some of them may look good, but the amount of plastic rubbish people create with these ideas is just shocking. Maybe it’s time to think differently and organically.
In the north too. The cold just makes it all fall apart. It was a stupid choice to show them using that, especially because there are some people that don’t know it isn’t useful for outdoors
Just to get supplies alone to make some of these is actually more expensive than just going and buying the finished product... Some of this DYI is just so ridiculous

Hot glue wouldn’t work in my city. Too windy, rainy and some cold temperatures. In Victoria BC Canada. Weather very similar to Seattle Wa
Have you tried the New Gorilla Hot Glue yet ???
@@judymcgowan2881
Its awesome, but don't believe it would hold up to this.
It may not hold permanently, but may help to hold it in place while you're putting everything up. Or at least that's what I was thinking while I was watching it

I loved the trees in the cardboard boxes.
Ty for sharing your ideas. And for those who thought it went too fast, I think it was just for inspiration, more so than directions 🤷♀️
If it goes too fast just slow down the speed in settings, that's what I do.
I like the popcorn and cranberry string idea!

Thanks! May Jesus continue to bless you and your family
Lots of great ideas! Except for the gnome "tree." Positively frightening hahaha
Love this video!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the 'popcorn' garland.
These have been around for awhile. The music was a bit obnoxious
Turning the volume down or off works for me if I don't like the music. Nice video. Love all the ideas.
You can turn the volume down or off on your device you are using.
You peeps are just frickin genius!! So dang inspiring!!
I love the snowman topiary....

So many great ideas 🎉👍👏👏👏
All these creations are pretty, But My favorite…it’s the last one that shows in this video!!!❤
fantastic video, thank you for sharing this awesome video

I love the way you are doing your decorations for Christmas ❤
Id think the cup holder screws will leave holes in vinyl siding. Unsightly and leak with weather.
You can buy these hooks that attach to either brick or siding and it doesn’t leave any holes. You can remove them when not in use. I hope this helps. ❤
I love all these ideas. I am going to try them. Can't wait. Dollar Tree, here I come.
I like to use zip ties to hang lights on railings and bannister’s and thumb tacks to wrap the lights going up the tree trunks outside works great
I'm loving some of these ideas. I'm so ready for Christmas now. Thank you Hometalk and Merry Xmas to you all from Australia xoxo
Merry Christmas , from Brisbane, Australia
Amazing, diy’s, have to try a few of those Christmas projects. Tfs.❤️👍👍👍👌

The "listener" can turn their volume down lol lol lol
I so agree…
Love all of these decorating ideas great job
I am AMAZED!!!!!
I love your videos, please don't use that kind of music. Ty!!
I agree!
I agree. Love the ideas but the music is obnoxious!
Just turn it down
Mute
How bout some X-mas music??
Does the hot glue really hold up in super cold wet climates??? I doubt it! I wish it did tho’❤
Didn't work for me. The very next day most had fallen off
Please use Command hooks instead of drilling above your doors. You can remove command hooks without any damage afterwards.
I’ve been doing this for years!!! It works wonderfully!!!!
Thanks for sharing all the great 💡! Where'd you get the paper used on cardboard boxes, awesome idea?!?
I want to know, too!
Right! It was so cute and antique looking 😍
I don’t think they will ever let us know. Hopefully someone else reading the comments will know and share what it is and where to get it. ❤
@@dibright1445 I know! Show us a really cool thing and then not tell us where to get said item.
The paper is Wood Crate “Trolley” 20x30" Roycycled Treasures Decoupage Tissue Papers.
That music is swinging on my last nerve
👍😂
👍
Loved most everything!!!

Slow down the video in settings
Hi! Nice vid!! This year I made a giant life size gingerbread man that lights up! Merry Christmas to you! 💚❤💙
SO NICE!!!
Wish I had the time to do this kind of stuff. I like crafts.
omg what music choice is this??? i cant even think! had to press the mute button
Loved all ideals
Home talk. Always amazing
Fantastic ideas👍🏻🎅🏻🎄
Great ideas !!! Thanks !!!
Hot glue doesn't hold in cold weather.
Maybe she’s in a warm climate 🤷🏼♀️
Alot of great idea's!🎀🎁
🎄 Thank yoU🎉🎈

🎅Happy Holidays🤶
Some great ideas!! Thank you!!
Great ideas. I want to try some of these neat ideas and will save the video for next year. Thank you!
You blow my little mind at how GENIUS YOU ARE 😳🤯

Sorry for that. But there were LOTs of other things you could do in here !!
Well then, don't do it.
@@AnneHealy DUH!
Some of these are nice.. Sorry but the hot glue won't stay in our mountain winters.
Try Liquid Nail Glue (not the one for the fingertips). Weather resistant, dries clear with superb hold. Just wish these craft videos wld use better glue than hot glue. That's why most ppl don't do projects. Best of luck and blessings to you
Try the new 🦍 Hot Glue or the tape for some of the things.
Yeah glue is a rotten choice for any outdoor things. I use e6000 with a few drops of hot glue just to hold it together while the stronger adhesive dries. Never had any issues
First time watching your video love it love it love it keep doing what you’re doing
Lots of great ideas and some i might actually do! Lol thanks!!
These aren’t even hacks… they’re just normal things people do 😂
Some really great ideas
What did you use to cover the cardboard boxes...paper, burlap bag, ???
Definitely some cute ideas, but that music is hilariously weird in a good way! Haha!
It's beautiful
I put garland on my front porch guard rails with wire ties .
So CUTeeeeee the tomato cage treee😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Um...hot glue won't hold in the cold
Beautiful ❤️
Hot glue won't work in colorado winter weather. That will fall off in minutes. Plus it's windy sometimes.
It won’t work outdoors really in any weather. Heat just melts it and cold snaps it kinda. I hate they used hot glue for these. I get they were trying to just get things done and hung up but they should’ve at least put on screen, “use a strong adhesive like e6000 for outdoor decor”…..something! Drove me crazy the whole video lol
A lot of the decorations are great for indoors, but would never last in our winds, snow and cold temps 😔
I like to use one inch staples for my Christmas lights and I like to staple them down every two to three inches on my shingles like Clark W. Griswald
Does anyone know what the black hoselike material was used for those arches...I would love to try that....
Me too that was gonna b my question hope we hit an answer lol
@@debraanderson7603 Me, too! I really like that hack, those archways usually are pretty expensive..! Happy Holidays to You!
Isn’t it just the sort of hose you use when you have drip irrigation in your garden beds? It’s kind of soft, not firm like a regular garden hose.
It’s a gas line. They used an old one that’s black and rubber with a large enough diameter to cover the broom.
In my area you can never find tomato cages in fall, only spring and summer.🍁🍂🍁💚🙃
Can you order online?
You could probably use wooden dowels from one of the big hardware stores
I buy them when I find some and store them
Very creative 🔥
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Okay.....that tomato cage tree idea was pretty brilliant 👏
HOWEVER.....that hot glue won't be holding up jack after all that ice and snow hit LOL
When buying Christmas lights make sure that it's actually hanging on a hot glue or a hook I mostly put a hook than just hang it up, it's very efficient when you want to save money
Nice nice🥰
Do it up sun !

Some of these things are cute. But don't you have wind in your area. Those plastic bowls with the lights would be down the street by me. 😂
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
Where I live, the winter wind would really mess up the outside decorations.
I was thinking the same thing! Watching her decorate outside in just shirt sleeves.... Must be nice. We are expecting below 0 temps and the usual 25 mph winds this weekend.
Oh, well. Nice ideas for inside decorations though.
Hot glue only lasts a short time. I wish I could find an easy way to hang lights on brick in IL/IN winters!
Just remember hot glue will not hold in cold climates.
Great ideas . TUFS

Look for construction grade hot glue.
is there such a thing...my hot glue held for 2 days and then it fell off
@@magpie92766
Those hot glued lights don’t stand a chances against wind
glue didn't hold for me but I do use Velcro all the time
🎄👍😊
Cheesy!
Some of them may look good, but the amount of plastic rubbish people create with these ideas is just shocking.
Maybe it’s time to think differently and organically.
What was that she used to hang up the lights and stars in the window?
When you live in the south you can forget the hot glue idea
In the north too. The cold just makes it all fall apart. It was a stupid choice to show them using that, especially because there are some people that don’t know it isn’t useful for outdoors
music is too much. great ideas though.
What will happen when it gets windy
For a split second at 2:00 in I literally thought she had someone dressed as a storm troop on the driveway. 😂
Just to get supplies alone to make some of these is actually more expensive than just going and buying the finished product... Some of this DYI is just so ridiculous
