An employee at Home Depot told me that the main reason why seasonal items sell out so quickly isn’t really due to people decorating earlier or decorating more than usual...it’s been the same as always, but the stock is severely low primarily because when everything was shut down this summer, it included seasonal manufacturers because it wasn’t considered essential. Those months of lockdown had a major impact on the amount of seasonal items being manufactured, so less stock meant things sold out far quicker than other years even though the rate of purchase remained the same. I don’t know how accurate that is, but it makes sense. Just wanted to add this little tidbit as to why we may be seeing seasonal item selling out at a seemingly faster rate 🤷🏽♂️
I can see that. I did, however, hear a Target employee tell a customer who was complaining about the state of the Christmas section say that the moment they opened boxes, customers took the items. The same at my local Michael's. The employee said they could not keep up with the demand for paint. (What I wanted). My community is heavily shopped by an urban community in a nearby state. My daughter and I were able to find what we wanted about an hour or so farther away.
@@missyb.623 Truth. I work at Michaels and we couldn't get the stuff out fast enough. Trees went faster this year than previous years. Hardly anything left for clearance. We condensed 8 aisles of Christmas stuff into 1 the day after. Already filling up with Spring items.
I work at dollar tree, and I agree that we didn’t get nearly the amount of merchandise as previous years. That, and the public demand so early into the season because people were mailing their gifts due to the inability to congregate this year, items were flying off the shelves. Also, as far as crafting, it is far cheaper to make a handmade gift and there are people, myself included, that are facing financial difficulties.
I’ve been of follower of yours literally for YEARS! I was watching you while I was in middle school I’m 26 now lol so just imagine I remember you did these crazy makeup and body painting looks insane so talented. Now you have a baby girl where does time go I’m glad you’re still doing great things in the RUclips community ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love Neapolitan ice cream! The Unicorn, read, is cake, ice cream, twirly sucker, fruit leather, sprinkles, and other favorite! Since it seems, along with llamas, included in Christmas, thought I'd " throw that in"!!🤗
your imagination and ability to come up with all these cute things just blows me away. I can barely do them when i watch others do them i could NEVER be able to sit and think these things up. great job and thanks for the ideas.
Well I see how great these things turn out. I wished I was about 50 years younger. But oh well. I guess I’ll just have to fight a little bit more I have Parkinson’s So someday
That was AMAZING! I am leaving my tree up for valentine's and making this stuff to use as ornaments on it! My 1 yr. old granddaughter is going to LOVE IT!
Awwww you’re making me cry 😢! Happy new year to you and to everyone that follows you as well . Love you and I’m super happy to be part of your RUclips bargain family 💕.
Your. BEST. DIY. EVER 🥰😍❣And Bethany, I have been watching your channel ALL 4 YEARS❣💜💝 What a God-given TALENT you have❣ Can't wait to see your Valentine 💖 Sweets Tree.🍨🍪🍦🍧🍭🍬🧁🍫🍰🎂🍡
Yessss I love watching Bethany and Valentine's DIY's are one of my absolute favorite. My hubby proposed to me on Valentine's so Valentine's is super special to us. I'm definitely going to create a few of these. You're so creative Bethany.
I loved the Valentines video. I lost my sweet Prissy (my yorkie rescue) Christmas morning and everything has seemed so cold and gray and sad since. This reminded that the season will change and this year will be gone and we can focus on the future. ❤️❤️Have a wonderful New Year.
@@hooriyarehman4082 what did I just spend 4:42 watching?🥵 I thought your link was something related to the topic, but it’s not. You’re just trying to get views. I don’t think that’s how thing are done here.
You are so talented, I am so jealous! I love it when I see you have posted a video and get really excited. But then it is over way to soon. I wish they could go on forever, lol but I know they can’t. Beautiful works of art! 🥰🤗❤️
This is the second time I'm watching this video, since that's how much I love your crafts! TFS! By the way my daughter is fine, thanks if you prayed for her...
Yay! It's Bethany ❣❣❣ I'm so excited about these tips and ideas! I've been wanting to make fake cakes and sweets for a tea party type tablescape for awhile. Seeing your methods is so helpful. Im thinking that if you use a clear gloss spray on all the sprinkles and candies then the color might not run. You know, like spread them out in a box and lightly coat, shake when dry, the heavier coated side will naturally end up on the bottom then coat the top again. Also, my dad was an industrial photographer and he used white glue to represent milk so maybe Elmer's glue and the brown paint may make the hot fudge?I always love when you post. I get so much inspiration from you. Thank you.
Oh Bethany I am in Love, Love, Love with everything you made. Everything looks so real. Thank you for sharing your Talent with us. Happy New Year to you my Friend. So until next time God Bless you and your family and have a Blessed Evening and Stay Safe my dear Friend.
So AWESOME Bethany! I absolutely LOVE all your videos and I look forward to seeing them and making my day. They put a smile on my face during this crazy time and I LOVE seeing Cooper's adorable face too. Keep up the GREAT work. YOU ARE VERY TALENTED GIRL. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU, MATT AND COOPER! 🎊🎉🥳
Bethany, you are so delightful...and your creative juices are over the top! I can’t wait to get over to dollar tree and start making these cuties! Thanks for another great project! Best to you & your family in 2021!
@@alilsexc It does work. I made some "vanilla" scoops this summer and wanted to try oils. I mixed some in with the spackle before scooping it out. Then over time as the smell faded I would add a couple drops to refresh it. I made sure the spot where I put the oil was hidden as it can make the color darker.
Omg bethany the ice cream is so adorable and so real looking!!! I wanted to eat it while I was watching you make them lol!!! So creative and fun. I LOVE Valentine's day! I hope you and Cooper and Matt have a great new years! Love you girl!
Do you think these would be safe for children to use if they were sprayed with a sealant? I’m a pre-k teacher and these would be adorable for dramatic play!
Really cute! I love all the pastels. They all look good enough to eat! As usual, you did fabulously with your DIYS. TFS your unique talent! Happy Valentine's Day! Hugs from Pa. ❤️🍧🍦🍭🍨🍩❤️
Personally I think this is the best video you've done .... I enjoy your videos I am a 40 year vet crafting this video had great ideas and information with not a lot of stuff .....
Thank you Lisa! I tried that with the DAP sparkle I used and it didn’t work. I don’t know if it was that particular spackle but I kept adding and adding but it wasn’t working.
Does the flour or corn starch mold at all? I have read about other people using items like corn starch or flour to make chalk paint, however I found it molded on me. Perhaps the difference is it being out in the air, whereas I made a big batch of paint, and had it in a covered container.

Dang girl you knocked it out of the park. Great job. I can’t wait to try it. Thank you for sharing
The tray and all the clear bottles of fake candy, my fave! Everything was darling.
You did a great job on these! I even like them more than the Christmas ones. (And the Christmas ones were super cute, too!)
If you have plaster of Paris. You could add a little of that to your soft sparkle. To help dry it out.

You always have the best DIY ideas! I love the coffee mugs they’re so cute!!! Im going to make some for my mom as a little Valentine’s Day gift! ❤️🙏🏼✨
Love, love, love all of your ideas! 💐
The icecream is amazing. What if you put a few drops of essential oils in each to smell like the flavor it is supposed to be.
Now that would be cute! Have you tried that? If so let me know if it works.
I know it worked for the bath salts I made.

For the sprinkles just use tiny beads! They have them at dollar tree and they won’t bleed 😊
Good idea 💡😁
Lol she had the glass sprinkles all along!
These are adorable! Thanks Bethany!🤩🤩🤩 those cookies.

Does the flour or corn starch mold at all? I have read about other people using items like corn starch or flour to make chalk paint, however I found it molded on me.
Perhaps the difference is it being out in the air, whereas I made a big batch of paint, and had it in a covered container.
