Temu is amazing!!! I was nervous because I'd read such terrible reviews about wish, ali express and others, so I started out by placing a cheap order. When that came intact and within less than ten days, I ordered a bit more. Then I recieved all of those items, so I placed an order for over a dozen items. Finally, that order came in time and exactly as ordered, so today I placed a decently large order because now I'm relatively comfortable that I'll get what I ordered within a week or ten days. I'm a polymer clay sculptor, but I also create room boxes, miniature scenes and book nooks, and I've ordered quite a few miniatures and crafting tools and supplies on Temu in my first 3 orders through that website. I'm very happy with the results and I've saved over $300 on the items I've purchased. Had I bought them at an art supply or arts and crafts store, I wouldn't have been able to find them all and would've spent considerably more money. Then I would have had to turn to Amazon, Ebay and Etsy, like I always did before discovering Temu. The only thing I'd warn people about with Temu is that people must understand that the dimensions of the items are often smaller than one would anticipate, but if you check the photos and item description, everything I've ordered has shown the actual size, so no surprises there. I ordered a small heating tool to cure my polymer clay sculpts. It was $8 and it is a miracle worker. I no longer have to lug around my huge industrial heating gun. Overall, I'm exceedingly pleased with everything I've ordered from Temu, and it's replaced the other sites I regularly ordered from.

Isn't it great! Craft supplies are expensive enough so if your multiple crafters like you and i, Temu is a dream 😁 after this video went up, i decided to message Temu customer services amd ask if they could send me out the missing table legs rather than me send the mold back and within a few minutes they sorted out my order and sent me out a new set at no extra cost to me. I am very happy with my shopping experience so far 😁

The gifts went down really well with them. My cat LOVED that fish toy but not as much as my other dog. For such a tiny toy, man it has a lot of stuffing inside it. My Border collie gutted that fish good and proper 😅

I definitely will be. It's my sister's birthday next week so I will be trying it out this week. Complete newbie to it so I am very excited to try it. I'm also going to be making some fun miniature things over the next few weeks for my other miniature projects whilst I design the adult shop in the background. And I can't wait to share my Halloween and Christmas projects already. So many ideas and so little time 😅

I've had some cracking stuff from Temu. They're on par with Wish but I have found some stuff on there that I've not seen anywhere else.

I'd really like to know how your cats liked the self-scratcher that goes on a corner of a wall or whatever. I've been thinling about getting some, but I can't quite make the commentment. LOL

I thought they would be obsessed with them but they didn't bother using them tbh Mary. I put them on walls and sofa legs, all the places they brush past but, nope. They are really strong and study though so if your kitties will use them.. definitely worth the purchase 👌

The pet brush I purchased is amazing though! All my babies LOVE that brush. Its sturdy and the hair comes out of it in 1 push. Brilliant purchase so definitely recommend that one 👌

Hi there, you are such and inspiration. I have put some of your tips and techniques to great use. I do have a question in hopes you can give me your opinion. I have a dollhouse from the 1940s, I would like to have textured brick on the external walls. I don't have a cutting machine for Mylar sheets. Do you think egg carton cut to brick size would work? And if so, would I use podpodge or thinned white glue before painting? Before and after? Big dollhouse and therefore big project, I would so appreciate your input and any other ideas you may have. Thank you.

Hi Cheryl. I am so happy someone can find something useful in things that I create. This is why I love youtube. I learn so much from this site. Egg cartons will absolutely work. They have great texture and are easy to cut down to size. You could also thin cork sheets. It already has the perfect texture for brink. I bought a roll of 2mm cork from Amazon for £18 for this specific project amd reason. I cut, maybe 30 pieces and then decided I could not cut 20 million more to cover the building 😅 it is very large though. Either of these materials will take some patience. You'll want to mod Podge ( although any PVA glue works for this ) the area before grouting it to protect your paint job. I paint the area first, then seal it with glue, and then use the grouting materials and everything wipes away so easily with baby wipes. I hope this makes sense. Please feel free to ask me anything. Or elaborate on anything in my videos of need be. I don't know everything. Far from it. But I do love this craft and am always happy to help.

On the geometric open bezel pendants, how do you prevent them from turning color/tarnishing, before gifting them? I have used them many times and created lovely jewelry, but I also noticed how quickly they turn, especially, if water, as in a shower, or just getting wet, increases the tarnishing time. I had a large amount of those pendants in a bag that I kept for ready to give-away gifts and disappointed at the way they gradually kept darkening. Any suggestion will be appreciated. ❤

I haven't gotten around to using them yet. I actually forgot all about them until I was rummaging on the shelf they are stored on a few days ago for the mould I needed. Sorry I can't help with that one. I want to use them so if I get around to them soon I will come back here and let you know what I find out

Seagulls real or a background noise your playing. I used to live near the ocean and i love that sound. Also the elephant cover is amazing

They are real. I live next to the Irish Sea and it is currently chick season. I am so switched off to their sounds I barely even noticed them until I played the video back. It just so happens that the noises were louder as I was recording this because there was and still is a baby seagull in my back garden and the mother gull was going a little crazy. It had flown its nest from a roof at the back of my house and I have been looking after it since. It still isn't flying though its two siblings are. I came downstairs yesterday morning to find its siblings and parents all on my conservatory roof looking in at me through the skyline window 😅. I assume mamma bird told them about me feeding her other baby to keep it alive and healthy 😄 I think I will feel a little sad when it leaves
