Dollar Tree Hacks Your Cricut NEEDS (No One Is Talking About These!)

And they're, I mean, no one's going to assume these came from the Dollar Tree. You're going to think that they're at Target, Walmart, anything like that. And they're like $1.50. But it's this. This must be the smell. And y'all, we're filling up this entire cart. It's crazy. Y'all, we just discovered a new Dollar Tree product that is going to blow you away. Paper crafters, listen up, because this is where I come to get a ton of amazing foam squares for super cheap. All right, my friends, I don't know about you, but I have been dodging the Dollar Tree. And I am ready to get back in there because y'all, I've been doing some research. Y'all have been putting out some crazy TikToks. And I have some amazing new hacks that I have been researching, diving into. And we just got a new Dollar Tree. So we're about to show you inside of our brand new Dollar Tree to give you these hacks like never before. Are you ready? Let's go. Y'all, we are at a brand new Dollar Tree. And I have not been to a brand new Dollar Tree in so long. This place is so clean. And y'all, she is fully stocked. You are in for a treat today. Y'all, I mean, there are so many things in here. This is just our graduation section. It's not even that full. If we come over and look at this section over here, look at this. I mean, it is completely full of amazing things that we can get and use our Cricut to really take it up a notch. Because no one at any upcoming parties are going to know that this stuff ever started at the Dollar Tree by the time we're done with it using our Cricut. Y'all, look at this. These are only $1.50. And imagine taking these for any summer pool party, adding some decals, being able to give everyone their own cup as a party favor. Are you kidding me right now? Like Dollar Tree is the plug for the summer parties because you're going to be able to take these and really use your Cricut like never before. So we're definitely getting some of these and putting them in the cart. Oh my gosh, we just keep finding more. This is so crazy. Look at these. If you're wanting to do a Hawaiian theme party, if you're wanting to do a luau, end of school party for your kids class, anything like that. These right here, I mean, for the price, they are incredible. And you'll be able to add so much to these like never before. And they're, I mean, no one's going to assume these came from the Dollar Tree. You're going to think that they're at Target, Walmart, anything like that. And they're only $1.50. So we're going to use these to elevate them with our Cricut for sure. Putting them in the cart. All right. The number one thing that I see in this section where I'm always looking to organize snacks, platters, like any drinks, things like that are these. These are only $1.50 as well. And like, I mean, it is just waiting for the vinyl to go on here to elevate this. And you could put chips, you could put cookies, like bags, definitely ice and drinks, anything like that. They'll be really easy to kind of take the Cricut and add some vinyl too. But there's so many things in this section that I think you will be able to really take and kind of elevate. You know, any of this could be a starting point for you. There's some things that there's already decals on, like let freedom ring. Like we wouldn't really want to use something like this because it already has like their vibe on it. We want to find things in the store that are kind of blanks that we can add to. But I am not against, you know, complimenting any Dollar Tree plates or anything like that to kind of make our own. Like this right here is such a great one for the 4th of July or Memorial Day or Labor Day. So you'll be able to stock up on these and then just have them, but then elevate it in other ways through this section. All right, my friends. So we're in the party decor area. And what I want to point out to all of you, no matter what you're doing with your Cricut, your parties this summer, they have almost every color from all of the white, all of the light pink, all of the pink, the red, the yellow, the green. These are all base colors. So no matter what your party is, the way I like to look at things is I like to start with a base and then build from it. So some of their basic items, whether it's table covers, plastic table covers, square, rectangle, circle, they have all sorts. Then they have the cutlery, the plates, the cups. So this is a good base. This is really important as you're doing your, your parties that you have the base and then the Cricut elements are go come in and kind of elevate them, which is going to be super cool. So what I want to talk to you all about next is after you see all of these amazing colors, what I really, really love is this next section. They have all sorts of different things, whether you're wanting to get, I mean, come on, for a dollar, for $2, you're getting the candy jar with lid. So if you have a graduation party, if you have a birthday bash, if you have a summer pool party and you want to add some decals, this is a really cool base. Plus you could use this in a lot of different ways. So I really love this one. They have a lot of different trays. They have a lot of different items. They also have, you know, some of these bigger trays. This is one of them. Okay. Y'all, if you want to see something like legit, legit, I have bought multiple of these and keep this right here is, I mean, for $5, like you're literally getting a full ice bucket. I have multiple of these and I use them at every single party and you're able to add a little sign here. I wouldn't add necessarily vinyl direct here because of the, the ice, you know, it's an ice bucket, but I have added signs here and you can take them off, replace it. This is a staple and mine have lasted for, gosh, since I moved to my house. So in 2021, so I've had it like almost five years. I love these ice buckets for $5 at Dollar Tree. They're incredible. Another area that we've used in some organization videos is our cutlery holder. I love this. And again, such a great base. So great for organization. You'll see us talk about this new one in other videos as well. Cause we love it. There's another, like a champagne size bucket for ice. When we move on down over here, I love some of these thinner little trays. They look so incredible, but they're actually pretty thin. So this is not something that you would probably get like four or five years last, but it will last for a year, a couple of parties, things like that. If you wanted to add like congrats grad and have some like party favors and things like that on here could be a really great option. They also have it in gold. You can see there's a lot of other trays, a lot of other options, just a lot of great basis for parties, clear plates, big serving dishes, all sorts of things that are going to be really handy for your party. I love some of these other bowls because if you need serving bowls that are like pretty neutral, these are pretty fun. And again, they're $2. So you'll be able to get those for all of your party needs too. All right. Me and Lauren are having too much fun here at the Dollar Tree. Number one, we were just talking about all of the different gift wrap. You don't get a ton of gift wrap here, but one of the hacks that we've been seeing people do is come here for the like craft paper to do all of those really trendy hand painted signs, but you would come over to the gift wrap. But the actual hack that we're thinking we would compare it to is the one over in the shipping department. So I'm going to pick one of these up. It's $1.25 and you get 96 inches of 30 inches wide. So we'll see if it compares to be cheaper or better to get it here. And then as we were just about to walk away, y'all, we just found a dupe. Look at this. If y'all love the volcano that we are just obsessed with right here, you are going to love this. I literally wish you could smell it. It smells just like the volcano, like my big volcano candle. It's the roominess for $1.50. Like Dollar Tree, y'all are on to something. Y'all, I don't know if anyone else is obsessed with the volcano like I am, but this is laundry detergent sheets. I know this video is about Cricut, but you all got to see. Look, and then they have the fabric softener. I've paid so much money for this smell. And I mean, I'm an essential oil guy. You know what I'm saying? But like, this is the only scent that I go away from essential oils. I mean, I'm gonna have to open it, open it and see. Like, does this really, this is a laundry detergent sheet. Okay, what is this? This doesn't even smell. It smells a little bit. Barely, barely. This is so cool. Maybe it's water activated. I don't know. I love it. This is so crazy. I am obsessed. I'm definitely buying this because I am obsessed with the smell. All right, my friends. So we went and got the actual one from the gift wrap section. And then we came to the shipping aisle, which has so much stuff. Poster board. I mean, all of it, right? It's incredible. But then we found the actual shipping craft paper down here. You are getting about a foot more of paper for the same exact price. So if you're wanting to do any of the hand-painted signs, if you're wanting to get a look like that with your Cricut, anything in between, come over here, grab it from this section. And it's going to be, I think, better quality. And you're getting more of it because you need that thicker paper. This one seems a little bit thinner and it's more gift wrap centered. But this is the true craft paper. So I think you're going to really enjoy it. And then check out everything else you get in this section. I mean, there's a ton that you can do when it comes to crafting. I love that they have some of the traditional craft bins that we're used to in this section to organize your desk and your craft space. We've used that a ton. You can also check out just some of their traditional things here as well. They have all their file folders if you're wanting to organize your scraps. They also have the little page protectors. Back in the day, I used to use the sheet protectors a ton to organize scraps and things like that. So we have other videos coming up about organization. So we'll talk more about that in that one. The folders, just a lot that you could traditionally use with your Cricut when you're organizing and getting ready to craft like never before here at Dollar Tree. Okay, another thing that I'm obsessed with is you can actually get your A2 size card bases here. And you can look right here, like you're already getting a 20 pack. So that's really, really incredible. You can get it in white, craft, or cream. And this section right here is only $1.25. So you're able to get the full, it's a 20 piece here, but it's actually a 10 count. So you're getting for every card, you get an envelope. So it's a full set and it's right there. So no matter if you want to do like a full mail-off card, that'll be perfect. Some other things that we love to do with our Cricut in this craft section, you can also always find, they've added these like really cool pieces of wood. This is a great way to start like a banner and have it hang down if you want to do like some different DIYs like that. So I love this one. Another one, they have their own wooden easel. You can see they have the wooden easel. They have some wooden dowels. It might sound crazy, but it's hard to find dowels this size. So I'm definitely going to pick up some of these as well. And then of course, they also have different canvases. So you can see a ton of different size canvases to do all of your crafting as well. As we move on down, they have their own little mist bottles. So I love, love, love these mist bottles. That's really incredible. They have some wooden door hangers. Hello, everybody needs the wooden door hanger. And it's right here. This is a great size. And then look behind it. Look at this. You have to really look for it. Guys, this rectangle, the square sized wooden door hanger. Hello. The square size is perfect. So both of these are great. Okay, crafters, check this out. They have the full yarn. And then as you move up, they have more fabric than we've kind of ever seen before. So you can see this full section. They have different furs. They have just a couple of fabric squares for us to go choose from. They're really, really cool. Lauren just snatched the red. You can also see that they have some different fur options that we just haven't seen here before, which is really interesting if you're wanting to craft with different types of textures and things like that. We've got, what is this one? What is this actually? Hold on. Just craft fabric. I love, love, love, love that. You can see so many different options, which is pretty, pretty incredible. You can see some pastels, all sorts of crazy ones that we just haven't seen before. Y'all know that this new Cricut Explore 5 does not have a true closed lid. So if you're wanting to be able to clean your Cricut and make sure it doesn't get too dusty, I definitely think this brand new microfiber dusting mitten is going to help you a ton being able to just put it on and make sure that all of your blade area, your housing, the carriage for that blade is not dusty at all. And this is just goes on your hand and you'll be able to clean it up. So if you're looking for that to clean your Cricut, definitely pick this up on your next Dollar Tree run because this would be super, super handy. And y'all, we're filling up this entire cart. It's crazy. All right, my friends, if you're not a big fan of getting a full alcohol pump bottle and having to get paper towel or anything like that, what I just found is going to blow you away. This is a little bitty alcohol wipe and it's a little pouch. So you can literally just open it up and be able to get one at a time to clean your Cricut blanks. So before you put your vinyl on the glass or any for surface, you can grab a pack of these, wipe it off, make sure it dries and then boom, it is ready to go with your vinyl like never before. And you're not having to worry about the alcohol, the pump bottle or paper towel. It's all in here in an adorable small little size to keep right on your craft table. Okay. You guys cannot be sleeping on this section right here. There are so many amazing things, whether you are using some of the plates, the mugs. I mean, Dollar Tree has always had one of the best mug sections, but it just keeps going and going and going. Like y'all look at all of these amazing things. The section is great from plastics to mugs to ceramics to glass etching. Look at these for glass etching with your Cricut. Like, holy cow. You cannot like be sleeping on this at all. I love, love, love some of their glass plates as well. I always use these for any little outdoor lanterns and they're just like a $1.50 mason jar and you have this side right here that doesn't have anything on it. Which is always perfect for vinyl etching, anything like that. You've also seen us use some of these before. I really, really enjoyed these. So that's a staple here at the Dollar Tree. They always have more glasses as well. And then as we keep going, you just see that there's even more for no matter what craft you're making that you just can't sleep on the section. It's a staple. Y'all, we just discovered a new Dollar Tree product that is going to blow you away. When I sit this down, what do you instantly think about? Oh my goodness. Number one, I think about a place to put my hot glue gun so it can sit perfectly here. But also, what about resting all of your paintbrushes just right here so they're not getting all over your craft table, all over your surface, anything like that. If you're looking for this at your store, look at this. It's called a silicone spoon rest. I actually made this because my mother-in-law was just telling me I don't have a spoon rest and she literally was losing her mind. Okay, this is one that you all go crazy over. This right here is can make you a reusable stencil. This is their chopping mats. And yes, you can use your knife on it, but your Cricut can also cut this. So if you want me to make a reusable stencil video using this material, comment down below so that I can show you the exact settings that we use to be able to use this material. All right, my friends, I'm in the automotive tool section and I have something that is going to blow you away. Paper crafters, listen up because this is where I come to get a ton of amazing foam squares for super cheap. These are really large. We typically wouldn't use them, but listen, if you roll this out, you're going to be able to cut it and you could just put it on the wax sheet and then be able to cut smaller squares to save you because you can't really tell that you can probably get four or five squares out of just one regular one. So we can just roll this out on the wax paper. It's going to keep it super safe and then we're going to be able to apply it on here and it's going to be your new sheet and you just roll out a couple lines of this. Keep it here, have it cut up, then it's ready to go for all your paper crafting needs. So this is a fun hack that I want you to try and let me know what you think. But this doesn't end here because guess what? They also have all types of super glues. They have all sorts of paint brushes. If you are doing a bigger DIY project and you don't have some of these bigger paint brushes, definitely come here, pick up some of these. I've been using them for years. Some of these are not half bad. So if you're doing some bigger DIYs and you just want to have a paintbrush to throw away, that's a really good one. I get foam brushes here. They have a bunch of like regular packing tape. So that's good. Every single one of you for a project this summer needs to have one of these sanding blocks. They normally, until recent, hadn't had like true sanding blocks. We used to have to just use this sandpaper, which they've had for years. But if once you use a sanding block, you don't go back to sanding paper. So for summer DIY projects, you need both of these. Y'all, it just keeps on going. As soon as I stopped recording, I look over, boom, they have the sanding block and a handle now. So I was saying, you know, if you've never used a sanding block, it'll change your life. I have never used a sanding block with a handle. This is crazy. Dollar Tree, who are we now? Are we like luxury? Like, let's go. All right, y'all, there are so many things I've got to show you and we've got to dig into. So let's head back to the office and let's see everything we got. All right, my friends, there are so many amazing things at the Dollar Tree right now, and I know we missed some. So if there's something that your Dollar Tree has that we were not able to find on our shopping adventure with brand new things no one's talking about, you need to put in the comments which items that you love that no one else is talking about that wasn't featured in this video. From the chopping mat to seeing the brand new little microfiber dusting mitt for your cricket. I think this is a great one just to be able to keep everything dust free, especially with that new cricket. Whether you have been able to run out and get your sandpaper with the handle, I love this. I think you all are going to be just obsessed with it. I think one of my personal favorites is the new wipes. Like, come on, being able to clean your surfaces with the wipes is going to be a game changer. So you'll see these on new live trainings of mine. I am really digging some of these new wooden blanks as well. So there's a lot of amazing things happening at Dollar Tree. So again, if you've not been over there in a while, head over there. I also love the new spoon rest. Like, this one's incredible. Whether you want to use your hot glue gun, your paintbrushes, whatever, this is a really great one that I don't want you guys to miss out on.
