Hi everyone! I can't believe there hasn't been a SoCraftastic HAUL since January!! I hope you enjoy it & see some products worth trying. :) TGIF! What are you all doing this weekend? (Aside from maybe, possibly watching my new DIY on Sunday. 😉) ♥︎ Sarah
A recommendation for the Daiso needle felting thing is to be very careful, cuz I bought it and the needle broke.😔 You might have to get a separate needle from Amazon or smthng cuz u cant buy another separate needle at Daiso.
OMG I USED TO WATCH YOUR VIDEOS FOR POLYMER CLAY LITERALLY 6 YEARS AGO AND HAVEN'T SEEN YOU AGAIN SINCE, AND THIS MORNING I WAS JUST LOOKING AT ART SUPPLIES HAULS AND I'm just really excited😁😁😁
Thats alot of stuff Sarah! Spent quite a bit on supplies, but I'm sure you will put it all to good use, imagine if I spent 300 bucks in beads, holy cow would be alot of beads!😇🐄 Great stuff! Great haul! Remember to stay creative!
hey sarah. friendly tip: for the clear stamps, get a clear plastic block and stick your stamps to that. Makes it easier to see where the stamps are placed when you stamp something. i really enjoy your videos!
You should make a video comparing different cheap and expensive dual tip markers to prismacolor!!! I got this idea because I’m in an honors art class in school and my teacher requested us to get dual tip prismacolor markers or sharpies. When I went to micheals they told me that the two markers are nothing alike (which i knew) and they obviously tried to sell me the prismacolor markers because of their insane price tag! I want to know if there is a cheaper alternative to prismacolor that work just as well. Keep in mind I’m not too serious about art yet considering I’m still not even in highschool yet. Thank you so much!!! Ily❤️❤️❤️
Great idea! I haven't tried the Prismacolor markers yet, but I do like their colored pencils a lot! (They are very expensive, so if you do have to get them use a 40-50% off coupon.) I think the Tombows are great from this first experience trying them out - but no way to know if they are similar at the moment. Thank you for watching! 😊💕
After you take of the green band, shake the pen with the cap ON! (Reduces splatters if the tip is too wet) The sparkle in these are closer to a mica powder than a glitter and they can settle to the bottom of the pen. When you shake them, you should hear a little ball rattling around. It is like when you need to shake nail polish to get the inside to mix right. Plus, the sparkle in these are closer to a silver look or iridescent look when they shine in the light. Don't worry about messing up with them some. With my first one I kept squeezing each time I used it and that was a mess. Don't squeeze them after you use them the first time, just unscrew the top clear piece, remove the band, screw it back together, place on the cap and shake, then you will love how they look.
Awesome haul !!! For the dreamcatcher stamps, you just need a clear acrylic block to put the stamps on & you can see exactly where you're stamping. Xoxo, Tiffy.
Those shimmery brush pens are amazing if you look at them they are actually super sparkly and very fun to use. My sister got them for me for my birthday and they are my fav markers ever. Once you get them going it is like painting but quicker and easier. I highly recommend them to anybody.( they are also very cheap.)
Keep up with the great videos Sarah! My girls and I love watching your crafty ideas. By the way...I grew up in Cleveland and never realized just how 'gray' it was there until I moved away. Now I live in another state and yes, poor Cleveland is just a very gray place. However, don't let people put it down. It was an awesome place to grow up.
OMG , im so jealous rn . Those craft supplies look so good , i need to stock up more . N thank god im not the only one who cant take a pill , it just doesnt go down .
I wear bell bottoms too! You’re not alone haha. I’m so happy to see they’re back. I stopped wearing skinny jeans months ago after never truly liking how they look on my body. The flare and bell bottoms are way more flattering on me AND I look more unique from everyone else which I really don’t mind and quite like haha.
for the clear stamps, you will need an acrylic block. they come in a variety of sizes, and shapes. Some have a little cross on them so you can center the stamp. There's also a tool called a Misti, which comes in small and large, which has a magnetic base and a pad of paper (it also comes with magnets) to hold your paper down, and then the placstic, or acrylic, side that lifts up (I'm not describing it very well) that you stick your stamp to.
Have a look for videos on the spectrum sparkle pens. You can create amazing backgrounds with them. The glitter shows much more when it dries. With the aquas there is a technique of mixing them with some glycerine, this is my favourite thing to do at the moment. Crafters companion products are quality products.
The clear stamps you put on a stamping block, a clear block sometimes with a settle grid pattern, you only need one because you can peel the stamp off then add the new one on.hope this helps!😋
for the clear stamps, you need an acrylic block. you can buy then in sets of two at michaels. all you have to do pull the stamp of the clear paper and it will stick to the acrylic block. ink it up and stamp it, then clean the stamp with a baby wip afterwords, and adhere it back to the clear paper. dont leave the stamps on the acrylic block it will ruin them. i hope this was helpful :)
With the blender pen, you were using the wrong paper, I think since it looked like copy paper or maybe thin cardstock. Those markers soak into the paper too quickly and make it extremely hard to blend the colors. If the ink dries too fast or soaks into the paper too much, it is very hard to get anything to move or blend. You need to use these markers on papers with more sizing, such as watercolor paper, which allows the color to sit on top of the paper for a little longer so you can blend your colors together. From my experience, you also need to slightly over lap the colors for a smoother blend. Hope this helps.
You would LOVE Lindsay Weirich - thefrugalcrafter. She does similar things that you do, and has many great tutorials on alcohol marker blending as well as stamping and painting. I really enjoy watching your crafting videos. You are a wealth of inspiration, Sarah! Cheers!
So a couple of months late, but with the spectrum noir brush glitter pens you have to remove the yellow part to get them to work, trust me I have the pastel one and they flow nice after you do so, it says so on the packaging as well 😊
I have some of those clear stamps. I have a clear glass/plastic block and they stick to it and it is so you can see exactly where you are stamping through the clear block which is really helpful. I hope this makes sense
NO SARAH I CANT WATCH!! THE THINGS THAT YOU BOUGHT ARE TOO CUTE!!! IVE ONLY SEEN THE THUMBNAIL AND IM UP TO 0:04 SECONDS AND IM ALREADY DYING I WANT EVERYTHING!!!
you are so craftastic LOL I love watching your vids my favorite video was the one you when you made the lollipop EOS I watch that video like 10 times I don't know why I just love that video I also love the video when you made the candle cupcakes I watch that one also 10 times lol😂 keep up the good work and keep adding more crafts to your Channel I can't wait to see Sunday's craft😊😊😊
Hi Sarah! I just wanted to tell you that you are an incredibly talented and amazing person. I just watched your October bullet Journal video and I wanted to tell you that I don’t know how your views got down, but just keep going and you will really be someone even more amazing and you’ll have more and more viewers. I think you really should be the NUMBER ONE youtuber. Because you deserve it. And you always find times to make videos that really satisfy your viewers, but other youtubers gain viewers from absolutely nothing! I love you Sarah
My name is also Sarah, my birthstone is also amethyst, I used to be obsessed with duck tape, and I've been watching your videos since you started.❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙
I don't know if anyone has given any advice on the tombow markers or not since there are so many to read through but I thought I would still comment and give advice to anyone who doesn't already know the FANTASTIC abilities of tombow markers. Firstly, since they are water soluble, the best paper to use with the blender is watercolor paper. Two of my favorite techniques are rubbing of some ink onto my acrylic stamping block and then picking the ink up with the blender (this gives you a more pastel color and less harsh lines in your coloring) Next, is placing two markers tip to tip vertically with the marker you want to draw with on the bottom (this gives you the most stunning ombre affect of the two colors) You must must must try this, specially with brush lettering in your bullet journal! Sorry its so long, i hope this helps anyone who is curious!
Both sound like great techniques to try! I've seen the ombre trick with highlighters, but didn't even think to do it with artist markers. Thank you for the info & for watching. :)
Oh Sarah, that comment comparing fun with food to Big Bang Theory of Sheldon's Fun with flags. Made me smile. Watching young Sheldon yet? BTW I love the new pens and markers! I got ohoho? Markers off Amazon. A low cost alternative to Copic. I love them.
I realise this was a while ago, but have you used the stamps that you bought yet? If not you can use an old cd case to stamp with rather than buying acrylic blocks to stick them to. Can we see the stamps / stencil? x
Do you have a way of organizing all your pens/markers? if so could you show us your organization? Or just how you organize any type of craft supplies thanks!
I’m always watching your videos but I never get to do them 😭 I don’t really have art supplies because I’ve been saving but I also need a computer for school , so THIS WOULD BE ANSOLOUTLY AMAZING !!!! :D ❤️
How much was the mod-podge?(I'm not the greatest speller so I don't know if I spelled that right😂) also do you recommend to get the Crayola super tip markers just a random question
Hey it's lara totally regret my user name haha. The worst part was I thought it was lyrics in my old favorite song until I realized I mis-heard them months later 😂😂
l_lyfe That just made me LOL 😂 Was the song waiting for a star to fall? That’s the only one I can think of at the moment that could be misheard as waiting in a waterfall haha

Omg when I was in 4th grade I loved your rainbow loom videos and I found u again wow your channel has grown
OMG I USED TO WATCH YOUR VIDEOS FOR POLYMER CLAY LITERALLY 6 YEARS AGO AND HAVEN'T SEEN YOU AGAIN SINCE, AND THIS MORNING I WAS JUST LOOKING AT ART SUPPLIES HAULS AND I'm just really excited😁😁😁
Yes!! I'm obsessed with art hauls!!

Craft supplies are my life!!! Every time I go through a store and I see crafts supplies I just want to buy all of them!! 💕💕

omg hi Socraftastic big fan!!!
with those sparkle pens you need to take off the green band for them to work fully :)
Wow no wonder I was having so much trouble. I will try that. Thank you! :)
After you take of the green band, shake the pen with the cap ON! (Reduces splatters if the tip is too wet) The sparkle in these are closer to a mica powder than a glitter and they can settle to the bottom of the pen.

I love seeing hauls every once in a while!💖

I'm glad you enjoyed it, Tiffy. Thank you for the tip!
The clear spectrum noir glitter ones are awesome! A lot of glitter and just color over colors you want and make glitter

I love tombow markers and stabilo pens! Neither is amazing for drawing but I love them for writing and simple colored projects.
OMG , im so jealous rn . Those craft supplies look so good , i need to stock up more . N thank god im not the only one who cant take a pill , it just doesnt go down .

I have the same clear stamp set and I use a used gift card as my stalking base. I have also used a flat glass coaster. It works pretty good for me.
