    New sub. Love the way you just jump on in making your craft and not talk about doing it for 10 mins. Love all your crafts. 👍

      Yessss.. I agree. Too many give too long of an intro or spend tooooo many minutes in describing the item. Just get into it now.. Lol

    You could zip tie the 2 bowls together, that way if the lights die, you can cut the ties and replace the lights and then zip tie them again.
    Might be easier than trying to pry them apart due to the glue. Just a thought.

    • @selmamartinez589
      @selmamartinez589 3 года назад +2

      or just use the same Stretch Magic cord you use to tie the lights on.

    The way you make bows is by far, the best method. I only saw this method once on another crafter’s page and I thought it was the best. Brilliant!

    You're a trip 😄 ... 💗 this DIY. When you said, there's a good reason I don't fold the ribbon ... because, I don't want too ... that was crazy. C/S - Plan to create multiple colors and spray paint the colander. Thanks again, GREAT IDEA and keep being real/funny.

  • @marthadueck6461
    @marthadueck6461 3 года назад

    If you use a heat gun to warm up the Plastic it cuts better. Or run a soldering gun alone the edge to give it a track to cut along. Love this project. It’s so pretty.

    Just to let you know I made one and I love it. I still have 3 more to make. But to cut the sides off I used my wood burning iron and it work great on the side handles. But make sure you have water nearby just in case cause it does get really hot. Just wanted everyone to know it works good. Thank you. You do great work. I love all the things you make. You explain things and show things really good

    You're so much fun! This is a great idea! Some other ideas... 1) Cut a very small notch out for the lights. 2) Put ALL lights in and use a white extension cord. 3) Spray paint the colander silver first (making sure to only use spray paint made for plastics.

    I am Revamping our entire front yard this year. Three out e everything I had, so let's go!!!
    My vision is to do a candy land yard, but we have 2 One Hundred and fifty year trees, so I plan to show off those long branches with over sized balls hanging.
    This is perfect, but will use on the porch, so no snow get into the collendars.
    Thank You 😘😘

  • @geraldineself6017
    @geraldineself6017 3 года назад

    This is a great idea. The only thing that gives me extra thought is seeing the broken sections where the handles were. My train of thought is to put some tinsel garland in that channel around the colander. What do you think could be put in that area?

    @TheDaileyrobin 4 года назад +1

    I did this and used a wood burning tool to cut the lip of the collander off and get closer to the edge, also used an upholstery needle to feed the stretch cording through the holes tying it as I went and just sewed the ligts on. Really a time saver! I added irridescent glitter and pink accessories to make it shimmery and viicorian. My Aunt loved it so much she took it with her and I didn't get a picture! Ugh

  • @shawnstamey9306
    @shawnstamey9306 5 лет назад

    Love your tutorials, they are always informative , beautiful and fun. Just one quick note on the gorilla glue, the way it differs from e6000, when you use it, on the opposite side of what you put the glue on , you need to put a bit of water on the opposing surface, it helps the reaction to bond better and hold longer. First time I used it, I just ASSUMED, it was like E6000 and didn’t read the packing instructions. When I started my project, for days the glue never did attach what I was trying to glue together. So I went back and read the instructions again and there that sentence piped off the page, “ apply glue to one side and wet the other side with a small amount of water”. I love it since I learned how to use it.
