In this video I take a trip to my local Dollar Store and marvel at all the great products they have to help crafters create incredible terrain. I hope this video helps you find some cheap materials to help get you started and even more importantly, helps you open your eyes to other products that can be used in your crafting.

Your dollar tree has much more craft stuff than my local one does.

There is a lot of back and fourth about how good these places are state-to-state in the US. I find that in Saskatchewan, Canada, they tend to have the stuff shown.

That clear craft glue next to the tacky glue is just *chef’s kiss*. It’s very similar to the glue you get that’s labeled as silicone glue in miniature room builds you can buy off Amazon, and it bonds very well and can support some slightly heavier wooden framing! It’s got a very thick consistency and is very stretchy (think of how a glue gun spider webs when first applied), which could be used for some fun textures!

Ive used those horses to make a horse-drawn cart and used one with the legs and head cut off to make a carcass routissere over a campfire in a huntling cabin, the wooden dowels can be pointed easily with a pencil sharpener for fort walls or pit traps too

Possible fun challenge: Taking a goofy toy that doesn't quite fit with terrain building and making something with it, like a Mickey Mouse toy

I can definitely recommend the craft knife, but be aware that it does NOT come with a case or container for it or the blades, and the screw piece that holds the blade sometimes has a tendency to loosen itself on the fitting. However, these blades do work really well in exacto knife handles, or Army Painter's craft knife handles, so if you have another knife already but don't want to go through the hassle of trying to figure out exactly which refill blades to buy, this is a great and cost effective set. The different blade shapes are really useful too. Also keep an eye out for Apple Barrel and Craft Smart 2 oz bottles of paint! Also note that you can sometimes purchase a wide range of things from the dollar tree website that might not be in your local store!

Having just moved back to Michigan from Seattle, I can tell you that Dollar Trees vary widely from one place to the next. They were all fairly useless in the Seattle area, but back in Metro Detroit they're all pretty much like the one in this video!

It's interesting to see what is a good deal at $T and what is actually a better value at other places. Like, $1 Reddiboard is better for crafting than "nicer" foam board, but a huge bag of sand at Lowe's/Home Despot is way cheaper than buying it at $T...
