⭐AMAZING uses for 5 gallon buckets! Great for spring and summer: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6p6qMKoktWcqqc.html

Shannon, here's a great tip my grandma taught me. Put sponges into the bottom of planters. They take up space, keep planters from overflowing and at the same time help your plants roots thrive!

Instead of buying those water bulbs, rinse and fill a wine bottle with water and just flip it over. Can also use multiple as a border. The best part though, if the wine bottle has an indent on the bottom big enough to fill with a little water, butterflies can land safely on the side without getting their wings wet & get a drink 💜

Well, I was watching a video on how to help your depression. I accidentally hit the button to go to the next video and so here I am. I loved every single one of your DIY's, especially the butterfly! This video brought me some happiness and joy. I've never seen ANY of these diy's before. I'm SO GLAD I found you by accident 😂 I subscribed after seeing the butterfly.

Shannon, I think you deserve all sorts of awards. I've been watching your videos through the years. You've become so very polished and professional. It's so great to see you're still going strong. I especially love your talent of anticipating what questions are going to be asked. It proves the tons of experience you have that you've put to good use.

😊👍👋 my grandfather and dad always put a little oil in the sand to store garden tools.

Holy cow so many great ideas! I’m overwhelmed-I wish I wasn’t so “under-energied”! 😂

Your son is so proud of his diy 😊, hope he continues with it. He is a beautiful young man ❤

Solar lights - do NOT want to take away from what you shared. but did want to share that I was looking for something at Walmart and noticed that the solar lights there were 77 cents. I was shocked bc I do buy a lot at dollar tree myself. Laundry baskets - great for garden and growing potatoes etc

For those who are wondering about protecting the metal planters: I like to repurpose old metal boxes for planters, using trash bags and a good couple of coats of clear inside and out. My favorite ones are the heavy 33 gallon 1.5 ml trash can bags from Rural King Farm Store that I get for my rolling garage bin. I push inside the box, cut it about 3 -4 inches wider all the way around, fill with dirt and flowers...pretty planter makeover is done 😊

The butterfly is my absolute favorite. Butterflies have a very special meaning in my home.

If you add mineral oil to the sand in your planter, it keeps metal tools from rusting. 😊

USE CAUTION WHEN USING ANY METAL CONTAINERS IN YOUR GARDEN FOR PLANTING. If the container is not specifically manufatured for plants you have to worry about the metal rusting and leaching into the plants water supply. The plants can be poisoned by the rust and become susceptible to damage by bugs and other disease. It's good to protect the metal with Rust-Oleum and to either line the container with plaatic or use plastic or fiber pots for the plants. Keep metal out of direct sun light as well. The metal will become hot, heating the soil and potentially burn the roots of your plants.

Where I live, Dollar Tree doesn't carry over half this stuff.😢

Hey y’all! You can also use those mesh bags when you’re going to the beach and when you’re cleaning up when you get home, all you have to do is shake the sand off of the toys while keeping them in the mesh bags!

Maybe with that gazing ball/solar light...put some flower foam in the bottom of the planter to hold the light stick upright? or some rocks/sand etc. Or some nano tape around the top edges of the light to hold it to the top. As always very imaginative and absolutely cute designs!

Great haul and thanks for sharing. Try looking into KZfaq videos for sewing I am sure they have videos for beginners. My Mom used to watch crocheting videos on KZfaq and she learned alot. Try it. For the lips....best is Vaseline and aquaphor ointment at night. I had problems with dry lips and I was allergic to some of the lip gloss. Worked for me!! Try it. Again, thank you for sharing and hugs for Fin and Pip❤❤

I've never found anything that keeps bugs away, even citronella. But your ideas are cute.

Plant flowers for the bees and birds and butterflies! Also bird baths and bird seed feeders 🖤

I just made those butterflies 2yrs ago for friends and family, and even cemetery. They loved them all. Just 1 thing, if using DT lights you will have to change the tops out each year.

Anyone that loves a dog like you do yours has got to be a “good” person.😊

The crescent bricks could be formed as a dog paw. So cute

Creativity must run in the family! He is VERY artistic, just like his mom! Thank you for sharing!

The butterfly wings are so stinkin cute! Getting ready to move to a new place with a patio so I’ll definitely be stealing some of your great ideas!

Perfect timing! I am starting to refresh my patio.

Love the Butterfly thinking about making a couple for our apartment patio

That watermelon 🍉 is ADORABLE!! 😍 Definitely going to try that with my grandkids!

these are all good ideas thanks for sharing

Please tell your son he did a great job!! ❤ thanks for sharing!

Love love love the hanging chandelier! I made a similar thing years ago with garden fence and tea lights but the solar lights take that up ten notches! ❤️

Is that turtle is adorable! You could take a 2 or 4 round brush and add some brown fanned out stripes on each scute to make it look like a green sea turtle. When you had the round paver and put the first 3 Crescent pavers on, I was certain you were doing a puppy paw for previous miss honey, but then you kept going. 😢 lol. Wow, to your lil man. Super creative, & fantastic attention to detail on his watermelon with the stripes. He did such a great job! Love your ladybug, & wire basket shelves too!

I liked all of your ideas, Shannon- especially the cute pavers!

The butterfly out of coat hangers was inspirational! Wow 🎉😊

Tge hanging Chandelier is lovely! I would have twisted off the solar glass neck and added a few compact mirrors. It would glow a little bit brighter. BUT hello awesome idea!!!!!! 😎

The outside chandelier looks so pretty that I'm going to repeat this.Thank you for sharing

Love all the great ideas in this video so much!! Thanks for sharing!

Take fairy lights and wrap them around the wings looks very nice at night

I've never seen the centriolla before! I think that's a cool way to keep bugs away

Thank you Sharon for all the fabulous ideas! 😄

ohmygosh! i’m from collinsville illinois ~ i LOVED milk in the glass bottles from Farm Fresh!!!

All of these projects are great and you hit it out of the park...so many nice and useful things. I love the trellis for the climbing plant. I think the paver that your son painted is so cute and I love the side table too! All of the paver ideas are wonderful! I love the buckets too. It's always amazing what you accomplish and you have amazing ideas Shannon!🍉 ♥

Hey Shannon if I’m correct I do believe blackberries take a few years to start producing. I remember my neighbor saying something along that line. I would check into it. Thanks for all the great ideas. 😃

I loved how wire busket turned out, so pretty

Your street number or your last initial on the bucket in the last project would be cool. I love all the ideas. I just got a new deck with really wide steps, I think I will do some and put them there. I love the butterfly.

OMG Honey is SO CUTE!!! ❤❤❤❤

Love the butterfly! Thank you for the idea !

These are all great. Last year I made the butterflies and put them on my gate. Have a wonderful week. Sorry to hear about your father-in-law. May he rest in peace.

The blackberry bush didn't survive because 1, there was too much air on the roots because of the pool noodles. If you use this hack, the noodles are full of air, so you need to place a spacer on top, like a plant saucer. 2 the noodles are polyfoam and would cause the water to drain away too fast. The use of a spacer- with drainage holes, can fix both of these problems, but it does shorten the space needed for the root ball to grow. I do the same thing, but I use large rocks. They weigh the pot down so it cannot be knocked over by strong winds or me dragging the water hose around, and I pack my soil tightly in all of the gaps between the rocks and water it down to release any air bubbles. Then add the plant, and water it again so that any air introduced is released. The rocks act as a perfect weighted spacer, the roots can grow between and around them, and the water that drains out is clear of soil, so that I avoid soil loss during watering. They also provide a nice anchor point for trellising. If you are doing a stackable, like a high water hanging plant over a lower water potted plant, you can place some pea gravel on the bottom, of the hanging planter so that it doesn't lose soil but can still drip excess water into the lower planter, watering both plants at once. Also, some spray paints are toxic to plants, so painting the inside rim may have caused toxic chemicals to be released into your plant, not sure if the pool noodles release toxins over time or not, but it makes sense that they may.

The blackberry bush needs a lot more space😊

Before you push your tools into the sand, add a good amount of motor oil. It will keep your tools rust free.

I work at a nursery sometimes you have to be careful with the seeds from the Dollar Tree some of them are old and they don't produce very well

I would have lined the toolbox with plastic or just set pots inside, at the very least sealed it to keep it from rusting.😊

Hey beautiful talented lady happy Sunday ❤

You have the greatest ideas... love the way all your ideas turned out. Thanks for sharing.

in my dollar tree i can buy the 3 chain and hook for 1.25 cool find for me

This is just great Shannon, awesome.Thank you so much.I am the least crafty person.Well, I'm witchy, but I'm not crafty.You know what I mean... Lol. The point is having a summer solstice dinner tomorrow outside and I wanted to make the backyard patio a little more special.Some great ideas here.Really appreciate you. Happy solstice 🌞!

love going to antique sales yard sales

I purchased the citronella incense last week, just a heads up they are very very very strongly scented I don't recommend them for anyone like myself that has sinus issues. Love the hanger butterfly

The basket turned shelf was ingenious! I don’t understand why you drowned the flowers in a bucket 🤔

I love the toolbox planter!

Thank you for sharing

I love love the Butterfly❤

The metal baskets you got at flea market are bakery bread bagel and pastry baskets

Your son did a great job too!

I LOVE ALL OF THESE IDEAS !! AWESOME COMPILATION !! sorry for yelling, I am just excited to try some of these lol

Tip: put clean motor oil in with the sand that you store your garden tools in. It cleans and keeps tools rust free❤

You are so talented. Love all you diys.

The butterfly art is brilliant! :)

Your genius thoughts Is a budget for my gifts and beauty around the home🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉thank you ❤❤❤❤

I cannot believe i just watched this whole video! Sooo many great ideas in here!! Thank you!!

Such cute ideas! I loved the chandeliers!

The turtle 🐢 was adorable

Pots to small for blackberries. I use wine corks to fill the bottom of pots. You can ask any wine bar or party venue to collect them.

Also u can make angels with the solar light too😅

All of them are great!! Just waiting for consistent weather in Ohio!!

Great job👍💯❤️ thank you.

Cute gazing globe idea! I'd paint the pot tho', maybe a metallic? Thanks! ❤

Really like the butterfly and the painted pavers! Thanks!

Loved these ideas!

the wire trays you are making shelves out of were the famous wire filing trays for post, paperwork etc for office use! Prehistoric !!!

New to your channel and really like you're ideas. Have a Great Day !

Love these ideas! You're dog is super cute and all your nail colors are super pretty 😊

So many neat ideas!

Instead of pool noodles use sponges cut up. It will help hold water during the dryer days and still helps you to not use so much potting soil. I don’t use a lot because I like the roots to have as much dirt as they need.

Loved the wall shelves you made out of the wire basket. I will be doing that!! All the other DIYs were also amazing!! Always enjoy your videos!! Lots of ideas and tips and tricks!

I see you're planting a nice little blackberry bush. I did the same thing 5 yrs ago. But my son in law just plopped it down in a lil hole in the ground in front of my house. It is now 8' high x 30' long x 6' deep. Every harvest 12 of my nbrs each get a 2 gallon bag of berries. TWICE. Good luck w/ that tiny little pot. It's a cute idea, though. I did prune them back last fall, but they came back even bigger. I'm running out of nbrs!😂

Did you clear coat the inside of the tool box to stop rust from eating away the bottom?

new sub !!!!! what GREAT ideas !!

I'm watching you the first time, Your projects are so clever, and something you'd like to have in your home, I'll be following you, best wishes...Renee in Colorado 🎉

Very creative, thank u😊

Awesome ideas.❤

Love the butterfly!

Some very good ideas 💡🎉😊

Oh wow, I loved them all and I am definitely going to do some of these DIY's. Ty Shannon, great video!

Hey for that three hole brick w/tea lights in that’s so cute and so do you know what I thought you’re gonna make it into a traffic signal like for the kids little area where they ride to tricycle or some thing so put a red and the yellow and green one or paint them the color if it actually got a electrical tape, I do a lot of electrical work, so yeah, the tape you could even put around a little tea lights and they

I did the solar light but I installed them on the inside and I change it for seasons or holidays

The window shelf..... i Loooove !!!! ❤

Hi there, i love your channel! And your pup Honey is a treasure. I am concerned about the instability of the bench you made for ypur outdoor wedding. It is lovely but i fear that it will so easily topple over onto Honey. Hopefully there is a way to stabilize it in some way to keep Honey safe❤

Add Mineral Oil to the sand to protect the tools.

I liked the floor lamp.
