That’s why I use the black labels with a chalk marker. Can get both at the dollar tree.

@@dalemakowski4578 Yes, that would be a great solution! Except where our toddler can reach...then it'd totally be erased 🤣

I always do a sample print on a letter-sized sheet of paper. Then, you can hold it up to the light with the label sheet in front to verify the placement of the label texts.

Yes definitely done that and it helps! Our printer is just a little screwy and adds extra margin even when you tell it not to 🫠 ~Amanda

I use a label Maker. I’m not really good using my printer for labels either

Thanks for sharing!! I've never heard of the QR code tip. ~Amanda

These are both excellent tips

Haha "acting" 🤣 glad others enjoy our silliness! He's pretty sure the stud finder is broken 😅 Glad you enjoyed the tips, too! ~Amanda

Can honestly say I haven't tried hand sanitizer! Haha our kid is attached to peanut butter too but doesn't seem to mind 😂 Glad you found the tips helpful! ~Amanda

It's the oil in the peanut butter that makes it work -- and alcohol in the hand sanitizer. Oil and alcohol act as solvents for the adhesive. Oils have the benefit of not evaporating like alcohol does, so it's easier to let soak. If you'd like to make less mess than using peanut butter, then just rub a bit of oil on the adhesive instead of smearing peanut butter everywhere. Pretty much any cooking oil will work; there's no need to get peanut oil specifically. Oil to remove the adhesive, soap to remove the oil, water to remove the soap, and evaporation to remove the water. I just gave this same tip to my sister for removing assembly stickers from a piece of flat-pack furniture she recently assembled. She reported back that it worked a treat.

Vinegar also works to get sticky stuff off, as well as removing limescale. I buy white vinegar specifically for cleaning, as it does so many different tasks in the home. It's cheap and it's natural.

Yes, definitely taking it one area at a time helps and doing it with someone else too! It is very freeing to get organized and declutter, and then consume less so it stays organized. ~Amanda

Low budget filming means working with what we got lol 😆 😂

Haha not sure where chickens came from, but our puppies are definitely fluffy! ~Amanda

Thanks! We try! 😄

Love a good lightbulb moment 💡😆 ~Amanda

Thank you! We love using what we have to reduce our impact and hope it helps inspires others to make/use what they have 🙌❤️ ~Amanda

We sure did! You can read about the process and see the hardware we used on our blog. www.biglivinglittlefootprint.com/diy-floating-shelves-wood-shelves-for-kitchen/ Unfortunately, we did that project before we started filming KZfaq videos, but maybe if there is enough interest we will recreate it 😀 Thanks for the tip! We'll give that a shot. Do you find that it gets all of the glue residue off or does it still leave some behind?

@@florencecousin5577 Yeah we've only got that to work sometimes on some adhesives, but glad to know it works for other people!

@@biglivinglittlefootprint I vote yes, please and thank you 😊

@@jodyyounger4569 Thanks for the vote towards recreating the live edge wood floating shelves! Means I can convince the hubby to let us buy more beautiful lumber to build more haha 🤣🤣 ~Amanda

@@biglivinglittlefootprint happy to be an accomplist 😂😂 great blog too, for those interested 😌

Thanks! Yes, use what you have to DIY and make it 🙌 ~Amanda

Thanks! Glad these were helpful for you and good luck decluttering! Love turning things from nature into useful but beautiful things like the tree branch. ~Amanda

Haha you do you 🤣 thanks and hope you try a few someday 😉 ~Amanda

Thanks, we love it! There's a link in the description to the free 3D printer design file and you can always get a company to print it for you if you don't own a 3D printer.

Superb spice organizer! Thanks for the design and video!

@@javannajones3363 Of course! Glad you enjoyed it and it was helpful! ~ Amanda

Yup classic silliness is what we love ❤️ and definitely love to trying to DIY and live in a more eco-friendly way! ~Amanda

All for using what you have or making it 🙌 glad you enjoyed it! ~Amanda

Thanks! Didn't want anyone coming after us for being goofy with the table saw even when it's not running 😅

Love to share and get others making/DIYing too! Welcome to the community ❤️ ~Amanda

Glad we made your day! Just have to label everything accurately 🤣 - Amanda

Yup definitely making a plan, analyzing, and evaluating what you have and don't need is the best first step to organization 🙌 ~Amanda

Thanks for the kind words! Happy to help 😊 ~Amanda

Glad to hear it! Thank you! ~Amanda

You are so welcome! We try to Live Big while leaving a Little Footprint through our DIY projects and sustainable living tips. And we always hope to inspire others to do the same through this channel and our website 💚 ~Amanda

Haha, I'm glad someone else besides us finds us funny 😆 Glad you enjoyed the video and tips! ~Amanda

Wow, thank you for saying that! We've got lots of detailed posts on our website (link in description) too covering everything from DIY organization and projects to sustainable home improvements. Make sure to check it out! ~ Amanda

Thanks! Yes, French cleats are such an easy awesome solution 🙌

That made my day for you to say that! Welcome 🥰 glad to you found our content valuable ❤️ ~Amanda

Glad you think so 🤣 we like to have fun! ~Amanda

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the kind words! ~Amanda

Thanks! I love adding a touch of nature inside and making it functional too ~Amanda

Plus, may need to replace that stud finder!! It missed one!!! 😁

@gemmasing6386 haha totally need to replace the stud finder 😉 thanks we loved designing and making the headboard with floating shelves! We made a whole video on it haha 😅❤️ ~Amanda

@@biglivinglittlefootprint Definitely, I will check it out!! And the others!!

Haha yeah it's definitely a faulty stud finder 😉 It makes my day to hear this was so useful for you! I love the idea of using the French cleat system for organizing supplies in your art studio too. Might need to try that on some of our art supplies too! Good luck and hope you make some some awesome custom organizers! ~Amanda

He steals the show most of the time! Yeah, wasn't worried about my eyebrows as those labels were definitely not sticky at that point 🤣 Glad you enjoyed it! ~Amanda

Aw, thanks so much! Glad your here! ~Amanda

Definitely one of our favorite solutions 😍 ~Amanda

Awesome, welcome!

Yes we are! 🤣

That sometimes works for us if we have them on hand. We always have peanut butter on hand with a toddler 🤣😅 ~Amanda

Aw, thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you found the tips valuable and thanks for subscribing ~Amanda

Thanks for saying that! Glad to help and glad you're here! ~Amanda

Thanks! ~Amanda

You are so welcome! ~Amanda

Thank you very much! Glad you're here! ~Amanda

Glad you like them! ~Amanda

Thanks for watching! We love the spice rack ❤️ ~Amanda

@@biglivinglittlefootprint I love the spice rack but cannot find the link for the design you say is in the description! 😟 Would be great to use the same title, if it there under another name. Could you kindly point it to me?

@MataH1 hi! It's there under Spice Rack Organizer Files. Here's the link to the 3D printer files for it. www.thingiverse.com/thing:5783855

@@biglivinglittlefootprint Thanks for this swift answer! ❤

Of course!

Always got to check for studs 😉 ~Amanda

Welcome to the channel!

Thanks, got to have fun otherwise we'd get bored 🤣 Just did a new upload today and welcome to the community!

Yes 🙌 definitely have used shoe boxes before! ~Amanda

Thanks for sharing! I know that works for some people. I've tried that and sometimes it just makes the glue worse and stickier for me. Plus I don't even own a hair dryer anymore! I air dry my hair all the time now after the last one died 🤣 ~ Amanda

Thank you! ❤️

Thanks!! ~Amanda

Yeah the one we used did but it didn't work for us. Our printer randomly adds margins so that's the problem 🤪 thanks for the tip! ~Amanda

Yes, always safety first! Thanks for the kind words and glad you enjoyed it! - Amanda

Haha I'm glad and hope the rest of the video provided you value too! ~Amanda

Thanks!

Yes, totally agree that plywood banding can give a project that final quality finish! Most of the DIY organization projects here in this video were scrap projects with the goal of using what we had on-hand and not buying anything. No edge banding on hand for this time 😅🤣 Thanks! ~Amanda

Dramatic recreations and camera angles can be deceptive, but thanks. Glad you enjoyed it!

Aww thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! ~Amanda

Yeah we did check lots but we recently found out our printer automatically adds margins and offsets things even when you tell it to use the labels specific margins. Can't figure out how to get it to stop doing it 🤷‍♀️ oh well!

It was obviously defective 🤣 ~Amanda

Teamwork is helpful it's true

Yes, that's true and we know that. That's why we try to offer a range of tips here. Work with what you got tho! 😊 ~Amanda

Gotta have fun while doing it! 🤣 ~Amanda

Hi! It's linked in the description, but I also linked below for you. They 3D printer files we made available for download on Thingiverse. Spice Rack Organizer Files: www.thingiverse.com/thing:5783855

If your garage is cinder block then you can use masonry drill bits to drill holes wherever you need them and then use masonry anchors and screws to hang your pieces. It's a little more work than sheetrock and studs but you do have more flexibility in where you put your holes. Best of luck! -Tyler

Glad you like the water bottle storage tip! Yes, we love the spice organizer because we designed it specifically for ourselves. We love not having to move other spices out of the way and having it rotate is a game-changer for us. Spice organization is never easy and very subjective I feel. Sorry to hear you're struggling, but good luck finding what works for you! ~Amanda

Agreed, it's definitely broken 🤣

Definitely another option instead of staples!

Haha yeah we've tried a lot of things and they just dont always work on every adhesive. But peanut butter works for us every time 😆 do what works for you I say ❤️ ~Amanda

Thanks!

Strange. It sounds fine when I listen to it on my phone or computer. What kind of device are you using and what part sounds off? -Tyler

Sorry, not even sure what you're referring to 😅 ~Amanda

@@biglivinglittlefootprint 😉

Yes, some tips require having scraps and some tools, but others do not and more about using what you have and repurposing it. ~Amanda
