I feel like it would not be my 100th video on YouTube without showing the
Crafty Kitty, who cannot wait to escape right now. I just gave him a treat before
this, so he'd let me hold him for this long. But here is Marcus the Crafty Kitty
and let's celebrate our 100th video on YouTube together! Yay! Okay, alright guys,
welcome back to my channel. My name is Megan, I am the Crafty Quinn, and like I
said, we are celebrating my 100th video on this channel. I can't believe it. It's
crazy. When I started this, I mean, I started this two, well, yeah, so including
this September coming up, two Septembers ago, so not quite two years, but we're
getting close. So it's been such a crazy ride, but I finally hit my 100th
upload with this video, obviously, and I'm just so excited and I just can't wait to
continue this journey with YouTube and see where things go. And I'm just so
thankful for all of you who have continued to watch my channel. Maybe
you're new here, maybe you just recently found me. Welcome! So happy to have you.
I'm just so happy to have all of you. I'm just so happy to have like-minded
crafters like you who tune in every week and just actually appreciate the
content that I'm putting out. So I can't tell you enough how much I really
appreciate that. So first off, that's what I wanted to say. I had to stop the video
before I got like teary-eyed. So okay, I fought off the tears and we're just
gonna dive into the haul. This is a huge haul, you guys. I have been to many, many
Dollar Trees this week alone and like every day after work I'm going to Dollar
Tree. I have been on the hunt desperately for those farmhouse items that maybe
you've seen in other crafters haul videos, maybe you've seen them actually
being used in different craft videos, but I'm excited because this week coming out
is going to be an everyday farmhouse crafts or everyday farmhouse DIYs video
and I'm just excited to use a lot of this brand new farmhouse decor. So I went
ahead and I'm filming this video now so that I can start using this stuff so
I've gotten this out of the way before I start actually using the stuff and
getting it messy. So without further ado we're gonna dive right into what I just
found and you're not gonna believe this but I managed to find all three faux
leather pieces. We got this camel color, we got the white, and we have the black
faux leather. And so I was checking out the back of this before I started
filming because I wanted to see how this is actually supposed to be used. It
mentions nothing about a cutting machine or anything like that. There's
literally nothing about that on the back of this. And it just says waterproof
effect, soft feel, easy to cut with scissors, widely used. So perfect for
sewing crafts, accessories, jewelry, and more. Available in multiple colors. So I don't
know if there's supposed to be instructions in this. We're gonna open
one up and find out. But let's actually open one up and see what this looks like.
So here we- oh! There, nope, no instructions at all. Okay, so it's very thin so I'm
not sure if this could work on a cutting machine. I do not have a fancy cutting
machine of my own. I do not have a Cricut Maker or whatever they are, but I have a
little Cricut Joy. So this is the faux leather in black. And so you can- you can
tell it has a very realistic look about it. And then there is the back. So like I
said, it's- it's not very thin, but it is thin. So I would imagine that that's
probably perfect for a cutting machine, but I don't want to assume. So if any of
you have actually used this in a cutting machine, please let me know. I'm really
curious. So that is what that looks like when it's actually taken out of the
package. All right, let's move on to other things. All right, so we're gonna start
diving into some of the other things that I found. And I'm gonna try and speed
this along as best I can. I know my haul video last time was very long, so I'm
gonna keep this on the shorter side hopefully. But look at this little
chalkboard sign with this like wood piece right there. You could totally
stain that, I think, and just make it a really cute sign. But that- it's just a
wood hanging blackboard. So that is a really cute item right there. And then I
just found these. I found this, and I found a love version of this as well. So
I don't know if you guys have already seen these or what, but this was brand
new for me. And like I said, I went around to many, many different Dollar Trees. I
went to Dollar Trees that I've never even been to before, and that's how I
found this amazing stuff. Like I truly- I'm amazed at all of this stuff. But I
just had to make some, you know, trips. So we're just gonna keep going with this. I
found this stuff. This- I haven't seen this- I haven't seen this size in a while.
So that is a small one, and I wish I actually had measurements on this, but
like I said, I mean, I just found this. So that is the small size. I actually have a
couple of the larger long signs of that. And then there's these cutting boards. So
cute. It says, bless the food before us, the family beside us, and the love between
us. That's in this gray one. And then in the more like natural-looking brown one,
it says- I think it says- it's hard to tell. I think- oh, it says, bake the world a
better place. So that's funny. Let's see, moving on. What do we got here? Oh yeah, I found this
adorable- it's a craft fabric piece. Watermelon. A lot of people are doing
watermelon crafts right now. I've been wanting to do watermelon crafts, and I
had a really- I came up with a really cute idea that I don't think anyone's
done yet. And I came up with that the other day, and I've been wanting to
actually make it in a video. So I hope to make that soon. So I can't wait to show
you what I thought of. But so I have a clip bar. Like, who knew these were
actually sold at Dollar Tree? And this is a crunchy peanut butter. Again, I had no
idea that was it that was being sold there. So found- oh, I just dropped
something. Chalkboard stickers. These are great because I have a whole bin system
upstairs where I store all of my craft supplies by season or holiday. And so
these I've been using as my labels. So it has been perfect for that. But I have so
many bins upstairs. It's like- it's like over 20 holders that I have, or 20
containers inside of this whole bin system. And I needed more because I ran
out. But so I just found those again. So happy. Those were just perfect for my
setup upstairs. Okay, so I don't know if you can see this, but it says welcome. So
that's one. And there we go. Holds it up a little bit better. But it says welcome.
So that's really cute. That's the first time I've seen this actual- like, it's a
thick cutout. And then they have another one that says family. And I'm not sure if
there were any others, but those were the two that I saw. So really happy to have
found those pieces. They- I don't know if they're new to you, but they're
new to me. So and then I found this in the Laser Cut Craft Words family. So what
you're supposed to do is they have all of those like, you know, it's cut out but
it's not cut out perfectly. So you just have to pop out those little pieces so
you can actually show the cursive writing a little bit better. But it's
supposed to say family. And there's at least one, two, three, possibly four? No.
Three? Oh, it's a three-piece set. Never mind. I saw a little number on there. Found
this. Cannot believe I finally found this. You guys don't know how long I've been
looking for this. I've seen these on so many adorable crafting, you know, TikToks
and Instagram reels, and I have been looking for this forever. So like I said,
I just kind of ventured out a little bit further away from me than I normally do,
and I found this in- I think it was- I think it was Percival? So definitely if
you're in the Loudoun area, check out that store. It has amazing stuff. Let's
see. Oh! I found them, you guys! Cannot believe I found them. They are like much
smaller in person. Just for like perspective, that's- that's how big they
are. Like, it's crazy. Yeah, so they are like itty-bitty. Like, all the pictures
that I saw of these online and everything, and in videos, I always
thought these- these dice were a lot larger, but they are not. And just to
actually give you a- for reference here, it says 1.5 inches. So just in case you're
wondering, if- I don't know if that fooled you too, but I was just confused by that
because I was like- when I was looking for them, I was looking for much larger
wooden dice, and they are not that. So I finally found just a regular plain
wood round. This one is only $1.25, not $3, not $5. I have an
interesting story to tell you about a wood round that I just found at a
Dollar Tree Plus that was extremely disappointing. In my last video, I showed
you a wood round that was from a Dollar Tree Plus, and it was only $3, and it
had the hooks on the back and everything. It was amazing. I couldn't believe I
found it. And then I go back, and I'm like, I'm gonna go pick up some more, and
I'll make some signs for a flea market. I go back, and I pick it up. I think it's
$3. I take it home. Only then do I realize, no, it was $5. So it was priced
at $3 originally. They went back, put a $5 sticker on it, and realized, I guess, they
weren't making enough money off of these wood rounds. Thank you Dollar Tree Plus
for that. That was a not-so-great surprise. So only then did I realize it
was $5. So now every Dollar Tree Plus, and I found another Dollar Tree
Plus, so now I went back and I kind of looked at both. Now they're both, both
Dollar Tree Pluses are selling wood rounds for $5 and no longer selling them
for $3. So that was extremely disappointing, I can't even tell you. But
anyway, we're gonna jump right now into some more farmhouse stuff. So look, I
cannot believe that I found this. It says, Farmer's Local Fresh Market. So it says
Farmer's Market, and then the two little words here says Local Fresh. How cute is
that? That, I have to say, that one's probably my favorite. But I found all of
them. So the other one says it's good to be home, and then there's a little, like,
wash and dry separate. So if you want to maybe use that separately for, like, a
laundry room kind of decor piece. And then I love the little, like, cutouts for
greenery. That's great. This one, also probably a favorite, Farm Fresh
Established 1905. I love those farmhouse stencils. Obviously, I really enjoy
farmhouse decor. Our story, farmhouse, the best things. Look at that! Cannot believe.
So that is all four. Yeah, cannot believe I found them. So really, really exciting
day otherwise. Other than that, you know, not so pleasant surprise. So let's go
into some of the other Rub-On transfers. Okay, so I found these other Rub-On
transfers that I have been seeing a lot. So I'm just going to first hold up all
of them. There is, I think there's one other that maybe I didn't pick up, but I
have six of them here. There's six different ones that I have right here,
and they're all different. So I didn't pick up any duplicates, so there are
literally six of them. So this one's, like, flowers and things like that. Hopefully
you can see this. Hopefully it comes out clear. But the first one is flowers. This
one says, love, girls run the world, to stay home, kind heart, fierce mind, two
small things with great love. Trying to read all the things I can actually see
on here, because, like, so, and the reason why it's so hard to see it is because
there's multiple pieces of paper in here. I think, I think it's, like, either on the
other side of this. Actually, you know what? I'm gonna take it out, because I
want to actually see what it is, and I want you guys to be able to know what
these things are great for. So hopefully this is helpful to you. But, so, okay, yeah,
so that's exactly what it is. So I have to be really careful because I have to
make sure it didn't come off on me. But, yeah, so, it is one, it's a folded piece
of paper. It's a folded piece of paper. You have all of these, sorry, you all of
these rub-on transfers. I'm not, I'm not quite sure yet which one is the actual
side that you're supposed to use. I think it's supposed to, okay, yeah, so this,
you're gonna lay it face down like this, and then it's darker on the other side.
And that's, that's how you know that that's a rub-on transfer, because it's,
well, also, like, if you also know, because you lay it down like this, and everything
is the way that it's supposed to look, and not, like, mirrored. So that's how you
know it's the right way. So just for, well, just so you guys know what this, what
these are great for, and, you know, how you want to use them, I figured why not
actually take it out and show you guys what these things actually do. So I love
this one, because it has a lot of great sayings in it. I'm gonna put that back
later. Just trying to do all of this at once here, but let me see. I'm backwards
here a little bit. Okay, that goes with that. So this one says, like, wish, and it's
got all kinds of, like, pretty Paisley drawings, so that's, that's cool.
And then this, I mean, this just kind of has, like, a bunch of random objects
and symbols and things like that. Some, some camping, actually, on here, also. Some
camping, some gardening things on here. I can kind of see some of the gardening
things showing through from the other side. This one says, this one has more
sayings. It says, accept differences, be kind, express thanks, difference, this is
master something, pack lightly. So all kinds of, like, inspirational sayings.
That's another one to look for. Now this one, I know this one is a big favorite of
a lot of people, because it has a lot of these wreaths, and just kind of, like,
flowery wreaths, and it's just kind of great to, to put this on, like, a blank
wood piece. And it has a couple animals at the bottom. It has a bunny, a deer, and a
fox, and an owl, from what I can tell, from what I can see there at the bottom. But
yeah, so that's really cute. And then, these are not ribbon transfers, these are
stickers. It says, farmhouse, coffee bar, be still, there's no place like home, our
nest, welcome, thankful, I love us, this is us. Just so you, because you guys won't be
able to read this, so I figured I'd read them off. But that is what is on that
sticker sheet. So I just like it, because I feel like the letters are basically
clear, and it also says farmhouse, so that, I mean, it's calling my name. So let's go
into more ribbon transfers that I found. Where this is never-ending, I have so
much more. So I found the other farmhouse stickers, welcome home, loads of fun,
family is everything, love, peace, joy, happiness is homemade, simply blessed. And
that is this one. You've probably seen this one a lot. I feel like a lot of
people have found this, and it kind of took me a while to find it, but that is
just so cute. Let's see, oh and this one, here's another farmhouse one, family home,
the best things together is my favorite place to be, make it happen, everyday
miracles, they built a life they loved, super cute, super cute. Also a lot of cute
greenery. And then this one, this one I know is a favorite, farm fresh flowers. So
it has the same wash and dry that's on the stencil, and says you are a wildflower.
And it actually says wash and dry laundry service, but that is what is on
there. If you guys can't read this, because I know I'm going quick, so that's
why I'm trying to read them first before I show them to you. This one, I don't know
if you guys have maybe seen this one a while, but I only just now found it. But
in this little mason jar at the top, it does say farm life, and it says like
pantry, thankful. Yeah, it's a whole bunch of like farmhouse things on there with a
mix of like gardening tools, there's a pumpkin in the middle, there's a bowl,
there's a apron, there's literally like a milk can. It's, so it's a mix of like
literally farm life, gardening, a pumpkin of all things, like random food, cheese,
eggs, lemon. It's the most random sheet of like farmhouse looking rub on transfers.
But it's adorable, I had to get it. This, okay, so this is totally not
farmhouse related, but I thought this stencil was too cute for the fall,
specifically Halloween. So this, I don't know if you can tell, it's kind of like, sorry there's
been a glare this whole time, but this, there is, so to me, when I see these
letters, and I'm looking at them right now, and I still, from this angle, I feel
like they look like, like bones, if that makes sense. They look kind of like, like
skeleton bones. They look kind of creepy, kind of spooky, and that is what I
thought of when I saw it. So that's why I got that. All right, so we are going to
dive into even more new items, even more farmhouse items. So keep, you know, keep
watching, stay tuned, because there is more. So this says wood frame with tin
board. I mean, there's like about a million and one things you can do with
this. Hopefully it is actually magnetic, because that's kind of what I was
thinking. I haven't tested it yet, but I'm hoping that this definitely is magnetic.
So we shall see. But I know that this has been an object that people have been
finding lately at a lot of Dollar Trees, and it's just so interesting, because
every Dollar Tree has this wood frame with the tin board in a different place,
seemingly, from all the different places that I've been. All the different Dollar
Trees I've been to. So this says home. Hopefully you can read that, but it's in
cursive. It's two pieces in this humongous size, like the size of my hand.
So it says laser-cut wood words, and it's, it's, like I said, two pieces. So I feel
like if you actually, you know, got this from like Hobby Lobby or something, it
would be at least two, three dollars for, I think, one piece, right? I can't remember
off the top of my head, but, you know, two of these for $1.25 does seem like a good
deal to me. So I also found this. They have another one of these that says
family, and actually it does light up. Hopefully you can see that. But yes, it
lights up, and it does not change colors like all the other ones do. Like the
color-changing pickup truck does not do that, from what I can tell. I don't know
if that's an option or what, but it's just a regular light, and that's, that's
much better for that kind of decor. Found just a regular wood bead, and it's not
connected to any holiday. It's literally just a wood bead that's in the craft or
square section. So wood bead garland. They seem to do that, they keep doing that,
like, square wood bead for some reason. They're not going with the, with the blue,
round shapes. I'm very tired, you guys. So I know that I just saw the other day,
someone posted in some Facebook group somewhere, that they do have regular
wood beads in packs, and the wood bead packs that they're selling are the round
ones, and they're in multiple sizes. So that's pretty awesome, but, you know, if
you want to make, like, a long garland of some sort with all the same bead size,
you're gonna need multiple packs, of course. So let's see, I found another huge
laser-cut word, family. Again, it is a two-piece, two pieces for $1.25. I just
don't think we can beat that price right now, unless there's, like, a sale or
something at Hobby Lobby. So let's go into the metal pieces. Okay, guys, so I
found all farmhouse animals. This is clearly a cow, if you can't tell, but
that's the first one. I found the pig. So happy. I found, like, you know, the go-to
farm animals here, plus, of course, the rooster. I got all of them. Like I said, I
got really lucky, but also I did a lot of hunting for these. It took a while to
find. Okay, so I don't know if I showed you one of this, one of these last time. I
can't remember, but, okay, so there's love. Super cute. Oh, yeah, I think I did show
you guys the welcome one. So this is, so here's the others. I got every single one
of the others. Gratitude. I couldn't help myself. I mean, who knows if I'm actually
gonna use this, but I couldn't. Oh, there we go. Gratitude. Could not help myself.
And then, oh my gosh, I was, like, so, so thrilled that I found this. Home sign. That
is the one that I really wanted the most, the home one. Only because that is just,
in my eyes, just, like, you know, go-to farmhouse. Immediately think of farmhouse.
Found this mason jar. So cute. You know, it's, it's got, it's got the little straw
piece. So cute. Love mason jar. And a million and one round, small round wood
pieces. These are the ones that I'm going, that I'm planning to use in Thursday's
video. Just so you guys could see it now. Just to give you a preview, it says hello
in cursive. They're very small, you know, they're much smaller than they're just
regular straight up round wood pieces. Welcome. So cute. And then my other
favorite besides the hello one, home. I don't know if you guys can actually see
these. I'm not looking at it, so I can't see, but yeah. So I cannot wait to
actually use them, turn them into wreaths this Thursday for some everyday
farmhouse decor. So excited. I cannot forget to show you these. I found the
Scrabble letters. The, in my opinion, these are modern farmhouse looking Scrabble
letters. The black and white, that's what I thought of immediately. And I, I did
have to pick up two packs of these especially because, you know, if you want
to spell out something that has more than one of the same letter, you kind of
have to get two of these. Otherwise you're gonna have to kind of get super
super resourceful and come up with a word for a sign that only has one of
each letter. I mean, there's only, you know, you do home, but then you're kind of
limited after that. So yeah. So I recommend picking up two of those just
in case. And then just the regular Scrabble letters. But, so the reason I'm
saying that is because it literally is one of each letter. And, you know, it's
only $1.25, so it is only gonna be one of, one of each letter. And we're
honestly, I think in my opinion, lucky that we got the full alphabet in each
pack. Because I know that with the, with metal little letters and the wood little
letters, they would divide them up into two packs, split the alphabet, $1.25
each. So that is a much better arrangement for the Scrabble pieces. I
got this star. I actually got three of these stars because I hope to make some
kind of 4th of July project and I wanted three stars. And I just kind of tend to
get three stars just as a precaution because I just feel like three of the
same kind of star design or whatever looks really good. So they have some
natural jute cord. This, the first thing I thought of is like Christmas presents.
That is what I would use this for. And it's just, they have two different kinds
of this. It's, it's this natural jute cord, but then it's, it's like a darker color
with some jute. So it's like a, it's not nautical, but it kind of reminds you of
it. So that is the other color they have of this natural jute cord. Love it. I
found the farmhouse fabrics and these two are actually not the same. They look
similar, but they're not. This one is butcher. It says like butcher house or
something fresh and delicious. And then this one says farmhouse or farm fresh.
And then it says farmhouse premium quality. So yeah, so that one definitely
has more of the farm animals on it. And then this one has the actual, like a barn
and stuff. And this one has some like vegetables and that's what's farm fresh.
And then this one is the one, I don't know if you can tell, but it says home.
And then it has some plants and a watering can. So really cute. Glad I found
these. So, so glad. Like I, as soon as I saw those, I was like, oh, I found the
farmhouse section. So this is really cute. I'm sure you guys have seen this in
different videos on YouTube already, but actually make it with Mia. She did a
really cute bumblebee themed sign with this. And she actually put three of them
together and actually used them like an actual, you know, like a honeycomb kind
of pattern. So you should check out her video because she made a really cute
sign. It was in one of her recent videos that I just saw. Super cute. Check her
out. Let's see, a square blackboard piece. And by the way, so I got these, right?
And then I noticed they have the white, like white whiteboards version of them.
So they have a blackboard of these, but then they have a dry erase whiteboard of
these as well. So just, you don't have to get the regular blackboard. If you can
find both, then there you go. I am starting to get my 4th of July stuff
ready. I just picked up this star wreath form and I hope to be able to use this
in an upcoming video for 4th of July crafts, some patriotic DIYs. And I kind of, I
feel like I normally made those kinds of DIYs around this time of year, so I
wanted to kind of get started making those soon. So I have that. But then, last
but not least, I found these signs over with all of that farmhouse decor that I
just showed you. This was all with that. So if you're looking for where all of
this stuff is, the farmhouse stuff has generally all been together in the same
place. And then these signs, this is my absolute favorite. This is absolutely,
absolutely my favorite. It looks like, like you know, distressed barn wood, right? So
they all have this like star cutout in them. So I'm like, I don't know if it's
supposed to be meant for 4th of July, or if it's a star just because of like, I
don't know. When I think of a star, I think of 4th of July, but I also think of
farmhouse decor, and I feel like star cutouts are oftentimes in actual
farmhouse decor pieces. This thing, I mean, I would say this thing's really only
about 2 feet long, I think, using my hand as a measuring tool. So there's that one,
and it's got that, you know, kind of distressed look on either side, so really
adorable. And then you have it in natural wood. I cannot believe that I found all
three of these. I really, I'm in shock. So that, you know, they've been having this
natural wood form for all of these signs lately. I just did that with a nautical
sign too, with a, it was a seahorse on it, so they have those like natural wood ones
for almost every season now. I didn't see it for, I didn't see it for Christmas, but
I think they had it, yeah, they had it for Easter with the Easter Bunny cutout. So
last but not least, this is the very last one. It is a blackboard, and I would
say, so it was so hard to find a version of this that was not, like, dirty or
didn't have, like, weird, like, white spots or something, so I would say before
using something like this, maybe you don't notice in the moment that there's
some dirt on it or some white spots, I recommend actually painting this over
just to be safe. Just paint it over, give it a nice coat of black paint if you
want to keep it this color, just go over it because you might not notice it right
away, but there, it's kind of hard for something like that not to get dirty
also just in the, in the travel and the packaging of actually bringing it to the
store, so that's what I recommend. But that is everything for my 100th video. I
would say I probably actually spent about $100 on, you know, there's, I bought a
bunch of other stuff for, like, you know, like, actual, just regular, like, personal care
stuff and, like, you know, regular household items too, so there's a lot of
that that I didn't show, but I feel like with all the trips that I've made lately
this is probably around $100 of a haul, so it's been a lot of trips
combined. So that was my $100, 100th video haul for Dollar Tree. I hope you guys
enjoyed this video. Thank you guys so much for watching. If you're still here, I
really appreciate it, and thank you guys for being the amazing subscribers that
you are. I appreciate you. I just, I love you guys so much, so thank you for all
that you have just brought to me in this YouTube world, and I just, just appreciate
you all. So, oh my gosh, I'm gonna get, I'm gonna get teary-eyed again, so I'm gonna
sign off here, but I hope you guys have an amazing rest of your week, and tune in
this Thursday for my next DIY video, and I'm going to be doing some everyday
farmhouse decor using these brand-new farmhouse items. I'm so excited. I hope
you're excited too. Thank you guys for watching. Take care!
