the buckle idea is great for Christmas cards. Like Santa's belt.

The kittle flat bows would look cute in the string of a flying kite. Just one of many ideas I have for those little bows. I like how they are flat without the big knot

Somehow I got talked in to being part of a parents' night at a preschool. I was supposed to do something simple and artsy with the preschoolers, so I used a version of your old eyeshadow trick. I pre-stamped a pile of little white squares of cardstock with happy faces. Then I grabbed a bag of cotton balls and my chalk palette. Each child could rub their cotton ball in the chalk of their choice and then rub it on the cardstock to make the invisible picture appear! Very cheap but fun project!

For old makeup, you can break it up and mix with glue and you have glimmery paste that’s great for use with stencils!

That pop can lid buckle is a great idea. My hubby is going to think I am crazy....crazier. LOL

The dryer sheet! Mind blown!

I love your videos -- not only are they amazing tips and tricks, but I love the fact that they are short and to the point, without all the extra chit chat! Thanks a lot!

Now I gotta go dig through the recycling for my junk mail! 😂

Coloring white ribbon…. Now I can match my stamping so easily. What a great idea!

I love the junk mail idea.

Connie I have used magazines with die cuts for years I ❤️ upcycle thank you for your article.

Love the pop tab buckle

My goodness!! All those little. Things I have toss!! 🤣🤣

A few of these I’ll use. I don’t wear makeup or use nail polish. Dryer sheets? Haven’t used in years! But I’m sure a neighbor or friend could save me some! All of our soda and beer comes in glass bottles! But I have used various bottles for circles. Just like a stamp, tap on ink pad press on paper!

Great ideas to use items that usually get trashed. Will definitely use these....

Connie, awesome hack vid!! TFS..🤩🥰👍🏾🙏🏾

Got a great 1 for recycling...The inside of security envelopes make a great source of patterned paper for diecuts or whatever! Many are even in colors!

I love the cut with the brown design magazine paper 😊.

GENIUS!!!! I know at least four that I will use this weekend! Connie, you always surprise!

Wow! Genius Connie you are the best

Love the up cycle ideas!!! I came up with an idea after my kids gifted me Diamond painting pictures to do. I'm a crafter and couldn't throw away the left over little diamond drills. What to do? Hey, perfect embellishments for my cards!

I'm revisiting...thanks for all the reminders!

Great upcycle ideas l love it 😊

Very cool and boy did I learn a lot. I think I'll pull out all my stamp sand get them organized. I have a lot of stamps....then I watch movies and Demand Shows I've recorded all day long. LOL! Thanks Connie for all the great advice and tips.

Oh love the verse mark and eye shadow hack….👍❤️

So many FANTASTIC ideas! Thank you!!!

Thanks for all those tips that a person never thinks about doing!

Thank you so much Connie

I LOVE EVERY SINGLE IDEA!!!

Thanks, Connie!

Thanks Connie for the great tips!

Those ribbons in clothing drove me crazy for years and I always cut them off until I realized that’s what helps the clothes hang on the hangers. You put the ribbons going opposite directions over the hanger. To think I cut them out all those years!

Your creative brain amazes me. Thank you for sharing your time and great ideas!

Connie, I really enjoyed watching these hacks!! They are amazing, thank you so much for sharing them with us.

Connie these hacks are just wonderful. Thank you for sharing. It is great to recycle, plus you are saving money! Thanks again

Fantastic Saves!

Thanks Connie. Love the #10 technique.

Thank you so much for sharing Connie!

I wish I found you years ago. what great hack ideas. Thank you for sharing them.

What terrific hacks! Loved 'em all! You're a genius!! TYFS, Connie.

Some useful ideas here. That piece of release paper all the dimensionals were stuck to? If you're die cutting a complicated die, use a roller glue on the back of the card BEFORE cutting, and use the release paper so it doesn't stick to the plate. And you've made a self adhesive sticker! You can even leave the backing on it and save it for later use.

WOW, all these hacks blew me away. Great ideas. Many thanks for sharing.

Thank you Connie, wonderful ideas to use in our crafting

Great use of at home products!!

So many great tips! I drive my minimalist friend nuts cause I save so much stuff for crafts lol, I grew up on an island in Alaska with five other siblings plus my parents and a dog lol, so I learned to save.

You are fabulous! I love these tips, and I never would have dreamed them up myself. Thanks for sharing these.

love the eyeshadow tip

I thought I was the only one they couldn’t throw away the ribbon cut from new clothes to help them hang better. Great hacks you shared! Thanks!

Great upcycling ideas. TFS!

Connie, you're just the best 👌

Incredible ideas Connie. I especially like the way you used a die on magazine paper. Wouldn't a honeycomb die look great cut out of a picture of macaroni and cheese? Oh endless fun. Thanks.

OMG, how did I miss this video?? I'm always saving cut outs from cardstock,thinking I could use as a stencil. Now I can.. love the tips. will be sure they are in my book of tips. More things to hang on too, my husband will love that.. lol Thanks for sharing.

Great ideas! It’s always great to see new things you can do with products, you wouldn’t think to do!❤️💚🌸💜🤎

Ohhhhh the pop tab hack neatly👍❤️

Connie you are brilliant! I love these hacks. Thank you so much for this video.

Connie, you have amazed me once again! I love watching your videos! I learn so much and if I am not sure of what you did, I go back and watch it again!! Thank you again from a beginner. 😊❤

On my, I love these upcycle tips and hacks. My fav is the pop tab and nail polish.Thanks for sharing.

My I love your ideas. When my 2&4 yr old grandson came over they were helping with the dried clothes. Out popped the dryer sheets. I asked them if they knew how to make ghosties? E went into grandmas craft room for some bakers twine, cotton balls and a sharpie. I helped tie the knot and we had flying ghosts running through the house. Entertainment for pennies.

Connie what clever ideas. Thanks for sharing

OMG. The eyeshadow tip is amazing!

I was amazed at all the ideas you presented for up cycling. I love upcycling ideas! I'm always saving things because I think I can use them in a new or different way. I'm a new stamper, and I saved all the clear sheets thinking I could use them in some way. Thank for your wonderful idea!! I also loved the eye shadow idea. I also went through my rubber stamps today that I haven't put the stickers on and used this hack!

You should put all your hacks in a book. I love the buckle tab.

Love upcycling ideas. My daughter volunteered for Americorp doing upcycle, reuse, recycle program. ♻️ Shared

These are some great tips love them. Especially the die cut with junk mail. Wow you are awesome. Love it. Buy the dollar tree make up brushes great for this.

Great tips, I have always used junk mail with my dies. Thanks for sharing 😍

Thanks Connie👏👏👏💞

LOVE all your tips and tricks!!

Thanks again for some fun tips. Grandma Jane

This is the best hack video I have ever seen. Your others are great too but this one really has a lot packed into it. So many things that you can use that most of the time would have gone to waste! Thanks a million for sharing all your innovative ideas with us. You're the bomb!

Mind blown! Die cut from junk mail/catalogs! Now I don't have to declutter them! LOL!

I look forward to your hack videos with anticipation. Chock full of useful information in a short time frame. You never disappoint me. I get a lot of gardening catalogs that I have been throwing away. Not now. Imagine the vibrant colors and glossy paper in them. Oh my, what wonderful paper for sentiment, background, and floral dies these would make. These ideas never entered my mind! You are super duper!! Thank you.

Garment ribbon cost .03 to .04 to sew on to the garment. Great ideas.

Also those pop tabs make great picture hangers.

An upcycle I have never seen anyone else do so far is die cutting with the metal wraps from the top of wine bottles. The wraps come in several colors and make nice, firm small shapes and words. They dies cut really well through the metal.

OMGee! Just extraordinary! TFS!

Wow for the hack with junk mail! Good vid! Thanks.

These tips would be great on Creativate Day!

Love the hacks. The make up one is a good replacement for chalks

AMAZING ideas. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing some awesome ideas

I use my old nail polish and paint clothes pins and make clip chip holders or magnets and decurtate the pin also. I never knew to take them off the plastic and place in the case, interesting. I always put those back in the frame, I thought thats what it was for, I did something right.

Fantastic saves!
