DOLLAR TREE HAUL | NEW SPRING ITEMS | DIY SUPPLIES | February 2020 | Country Girl

Welcome everyone to Country Girl. I have a very exciting Dollar Tree tour for you today and the reason I say it's exciting is because I'm excited about it and I get excited about most of my Dollar Tree holes, but some more than others. And I'm really excited about this one and it's a pretty big

haul

from Dollar Tree, so I'm going to go ahead and start as usual. I have a variety of different things, of course, some of the things I have today are from

spring

. and Easter

items

just because those are the new things they're releasing at Dollar Tree, so I'm going to go ahead and start with those first and start with one of the cutest things I've ever found. that's new at least for my

dollar

tree

s this year and these are these cute little bunny treat bags.

I saw them today and I liked it, oh my god, I couldn't believe it. Makes me think of the cute Easter bunny baskets they have. I've got this made out of these things, you know, for a boy, blue for a boy and pink for a

girl

, but you have two of these little bags in this and I'm going to go ahead and open it up because I'll use it because you know, of course, my family or my daughters anyway so open this up so you can see exactly what it looks like but it's a little drawstring bag and you know how big it is.

You can fit a lot here. You could also just take it and put some filling in this little bag too if you just want to set it up for some decoration, I'm not really sure how that would look but you can remove this cord if you want and then just sew it on top. with a little bit of filling and have a cute little table or maybe put some rice in the bottom if you don't want to use this as a treat bag but I think these things are absolutely adorable and this was the only one I've ever seen , so I don't know if it comes in other colors of course there's our multi-color one so I thought that was really cute so I grabbed them and then I also grabbed one of these little ceramic bunny painting sets that you can do a lot of things with these, but the reason I have to do it is because I think it was last year or the year before.

I made a very pretty globe and spray painted it very shiny gold and glued it on with e6000 glue. top of one of those upside down glass globes and I had it on top of a decoration I had on a chandelier and I'll post the video in the description box below as well as do it on a card so you can check it out. one of my favorite Easter decorations, well it broke last year so I'll have to make another one, that's why I chose this one, but I've seen so many cute crafts with this bunny so it's definitely worth going out and I bought several of these , so I chose that one, oh my gosh, and this thing is so cute.

I have no idea what I'm going to do with this, but I couldn't walk past this and not understand, these are the little bunny butts and This is a tray for silicone molds. You can use it because it says ice cube tray. You could use it for ice. I suppose if you wanted you could use it for small soaps. I suppose you could make little bath bombs with it. You could do variety. There were so many different things with these and I thought they were so cute when I saw them that I had to buy them.

They had another one that just had bunny heads and on one side the bunny head was like a little

girl

, the other side was a little boy, I think the girl had a little flower in her hair, the boy might have had a bow tie, but Oh my gosh, I thought this was so cute, so I picked it up and then I also bought these little felt stickers. just baby carrots, you get them in mini size in a bag and I thought they were cute, you could always use them in a variety of different things. I have to have these little words: color your own ornament, but these are wooden ornaments and you get five pieces in each one.

I got the bunny, also the chicks, and then the carrots, so I'll probably paint them and make myself a garland, and I'll probably do it exactly the same way I made my vintage Halloween garland and I'll also leave it in the description box below if you want to check it out and I'll do it exactly the same way. I'm just going to use different colored ribbons and of course different colored paints on these, but I just thought they would look really cute hanging and, you know, for a little girl who's with us sometimes, I'm not sure how detailed I'm going to be about the paint, but they are very cute, so how do they look? you pick things up and then I also grabbed this one, just this simple wooden sign.

I have an idea what I'm going to do with this. I'm going to use this in an upcoming DIY so I wanted to go ahead and get this way I would have it on hand and it's like I said, it's just a simple wood sign if you don't have the wood pieces on your

dollar

tree

s. I know some of them haven't fully incorporated their craft square, but they have a lot. signs that are shaped like this to have other sayings and things like that, you can't take one of those and just clean it up, sand it a little bit so you can paint it and use it too, so yeah, anyway.

I came back and then they had the metal Easter words, this is Happy Easter and Blessings and it's just the metals and I'll open this up so you can see this. I don't know why I don't plan to open it. a lot of this stuff for everyone to get a closer look at, but it really should. I guess sometimes it's hard to say, but this is the blessing and I think they're starting to make these metal sighs, they're these little pieces of metal. For all the occasions that is Easter, of course, you can paint them. If you decide to paint them you'll want to use chalkboard paint because it will cover it better than acrylic so I bought those anyway and then they had these little flavored lip balms and they were hanging on one of the little strips at the register so I kept going I went ahead and bought these.

I thought it would be fun to put them in my daughters' Easter basket and just to let you know what to do for Easter for my daughters. I just try to keep it fun. Easter baskets aren't really so much, you know, getting things that they need or don't need because you know you have Christmas and birthdays for that, it's more like just getting little novelty things. that's just fun even if they only play with it for a few days or you know it's something they only use a couple of times, that's why I also don't invest a lot of money in a lot of things that I put.

I get a lot of Dollar Tree

items

there, but I still bought the Peeps flavored lip balm. This is great and I don't think either of us cares about grapes so it'll probably be mine so this is it. the strawberry, this is vanilla. I'll probably give it to my mom and then this one is cotton candy, so I thought they would be cute to put in an Easter basket and then I bought an Easter basket too. I think they have 72 Easter baskets are up this year, OMG the reason I don't buy a lot of Easter baskets at Dollar Tree is because my daughters and I have said this before that we use the same Easter basket every year. and what they do is they just put it out the night before so the Easter Bunny can come and fill their baskets.

We don't just buy a new basket every year. If I buy a basket, it's usually for some kind of craft or something. I'm doing and that's what I'm doing here. I picked up this little purple one. I guess it's like a little wicker whisk type basket and they have them in a variety of different colors, but I chose purple for this one so I bought that one. and this will be for something I will do in an upcoming DIY and then also about this. I know I say this wrong every time Excelsior usually when you see it it's the natural color but this time it's green and now it looks more like grass than Easter grass.

I'm not. I didn't buy this to put in my girl's Easter baskets because I want something traditional like regular Easter grass plastic and maybe with glitter or glitter. I'm doing this for a DIY, but it's very nice to have. I don't know if they're only releasing it for Easter if it's something they're going to keep releasing, but it's nice to have this on hand for any type of floral. kind of arrangement or something like that that you're doing where you might need some grass, so anyway I picked these things out and they're not the ones that I really like because they're not as messy as some of the other things and I don't think I have any more Easter stuff yeah I know, you know we'll get to that, but the next item I have I have some baskets.

I picked this one up here. I have always loved this pattern, they have had it for I was at Dollar Tree several years ago and I had never seen this color before. This color says I think it was like a pink, but to me it's almost like a very light peach and I thought it was very pretty and I have something in mind. for this as a gift for someone I'm going to make and that will be another video. I'm going to make a full video of this gift I'm putting together and let you know what it is later. but I'm going to use this, you know, it's the basket I have to fill for this gift.

I thought it was really beautiful and I love this size and shape. You could put so many different things in here, so it's one of my favorites. sizes if you have a Dollar Tree now the new baskets they have this year and I'm sure you guys have seen them in a lot of places because I've seen them everywhere and I haven't even been able to get in Social media is very present lately, but that's how it is these little baskets they're called here, it's just a tote bag, it's very sturdy, I really like the weave and everything, it's like the little round baskets they had, but mainly I got this.

Because they are the perfect size for storing magazines and coloring books and things like that, the system I've been using to store all my adult coloring books just isn't working for me, so I thought this would be a really good alternative. and I chose gray because I'm trying to let you know as far as my decorations and the things I have for organization. I'm trying to make it more neutral, so I picked two of these because I have quite a few. of coloring books, like I said, you can do a lot of different things with these and they are nice and deep.

I'm good size baskets, as you can see, so I mean, you can do so many things and if you like too, if you want. for knitting or crocheting it would be nice to have them because you could just drop your little balls of yarn into this and put the yarn through one of these little holes and that way when you're knitting or crocheting you'll know that it's not going to happen. let you know everywhere and the little balls can roll in this basket, so it's just a mistake anyway. I thought they are very cute, they are very popular, if you see them you might want to go ahead and grab them.

The dollar tree only had the gray and navy blue so I bought those and then I also chose and went ahead and bought more hand soap. I love this doll. The Himalayan site sees a leg, so I can't even talk about Himalayan salt and then the coconut and mango water. I've bought these two before. I love the smell of them, they are very nice and clean, and I use hand soap like crazy in my kitchen, so I buy some bath soap and Bodyworks when they have them on sale. I don't like paying $3 for them, but when I run out and they don't have a cell phone, you know, I always supplemented with these and this is better for me anyway because we get over it very quickly using something like This is much more convenient, so I bought some of that.

Saw some really cute novelty items. They have some new little notepads and I'm a coffee drinker. You know, I had to pick them up. These are small notepads or magnetic ones. I didn't even realize they were magnetic, but they're not as big as the last ones they came out with. They had other small coffee notebooks before these were shorter. I like these at work, especially some that are a little small. I don't know, I set them up, they're bigger than a post-it note, but I just like having the lines so I can do it a little bit.

Sometimes I have to write down little things that I need to do and remember, and Just think this would be nice because you just tear it off and attach it to whatever you want, so this one just says coffee please, it's like it has the little cactus and the succulents in the background, this one says coffee time and it's you know. purples and pinks and oranges this one said coffee loves you and this one has the donut background and then this one says coffee in my mind and of course you know I said that's the mega these magnets hold up great and you get 60 sheets in each pad notes One of the things I really like about notepads is that they are great for filling baskets.

I love making baskets. I said it before, just because you can buy so many cute little items, you could make a themed basket if you don't and make everything match. or you could just do a variety of different things and I don't know, it's just my favorite thing to do, it's a lot more fun to put together than just going out and buying a big item, so it's nice to be able to have that sometimes. I buy things like this and just hold onto them and then when I need to put something together I can go and take a bunch of things that I already have on hand and create something really cute, so I picked them up and thought I was going to have one of those for myself .

I also saw some nice little bookmarks that werethey call dual scent gel pens so you know the pink and blue on this side and the black and purple on this side and I like it. I said it's supposed to be Sorry, it's called Twix, look two and one. so I bought them, this is what they look like. I'm not really sure what's in this like some kind of monster or something now that I look at it I wouldn't even pay attention, it's a bit gory, maybe a little kid would. like something like this that's a little creepy.

I didn't realize they had that there anyway and now I feel like it actually has the little triangle. I didn't notice it in the store on the package, but I like these because for me they are much easier to hold and write on, but this is the tip and this is the rose trying to figure out what's in this, let's take those ice cream cones unicorn, it's a little happier than the last one, so I bought those and these things like this would also be cute to put in the kids' Easter baskets. Oh, you know, a crazy little mess like that, and then this one, sorry, I have another set of pens, there's different colors, I think that's why.

I picked up two this one was dark blue and purple and then that one looks orange and maybe green so we'll see what's on the front of these two because it's a little hard to tell since I fit in the packages this one looks like it has a Kind of like a little robot or something. I'm not really sure what that thing is. Weird little characters. This has some fries in it and again, I don't know what that other thing is. Yes, it should. be turning the other way, and then the last thing I got from this setting is that they have double sided highlighters, they also had double sided cardstock markers, they're just very thick markers, it's not something I would be using, so no I bought them, but these are the highlighters and you know, this is what they look like and I haven't even smelled these things, they're supposed to be sinning, but they're all, they're all triangle shaped.

I can't really say as far as the smell goes, oh it's not that strong on me if it's scented. I couldn't tell you what they were, but you know, rainbows and unicorns, so I guess this guy is scary and creepy. of smells like a blueberry or something and I don't really think it will tell you what the smell is supposed to be. I guess you just go by the color, I can't say in this case, so we'll see that they highlight the last solitary pretty well, I don't know, I don't even know if it's a brand or not, if you've heard of these Twix be , yes, the modified sea scented markers and pens, let me know, so these last items I bought.

I got a DIY. I know that many times what people do is DIY. They don't actually do the Dollar Tree tour with those items, they just show you when they are doing their DIY and let you know they come from Dollar Tree. but I like to go ahead and show you all these things when I have them so that you have the opportunity to go out and buy them too in case you are interested and do some of my DIY projects that sometimes I can't always do. them as soon as I pick things up and if it's a week or two since I get them, I don't want you to miss the opportunity to pick them up yourself, so I'll go ahead and show them to you.

What I bought now, this item, these two items here or something that they have every day, it's not seasonal or anything like that. I always see them at Dollar Tree, but I bought this clear glass plate and then grabbed one of these glasses. I guess this is kind of like I don't know what your buddies' glasses are because I don't drink, but whatever kind of whiskey or whatever you put in these things, that's the kind of glass it is and I got this because I'm going to make a pedestal with it just so you know you're wondering why I picked up these two items so I bought them and then I also picked up some more flowers.

Now these flowers are more

spring

oriented because of course. Spring and Easter are coming up and I wanted to make a variety of different colors so this is like the bouquet I picked up. I want to make different flowers, different shapes. I don't really have any kind of floral experience. I just choose what I like and I like to do a variety of different things, but I really like these flowers, these are crocuses and these are the flowers that I used when I made my centerpiece for my table where I use the words love and I.

I made it for Valentine's Day last year, another video I'll post in the description box below if you're interested, but I think these flowers are really beautiful, they actually had one that was like a coral color and it looked, My God! It looked beautiful paired with this here, but since I wanted to use pinks, The Crow and the pinks didn't go together so I had to remove it, so anyway I have two of each of these that I'm going to show. So I bought two of those and I also picked up this little flower here, this just says wildflowers and these are the same type of flowers that I used in my Valentine's Day wreath that I made recently and we had little pink bugs on it.

I love these. little flowers I think these are like my favorite little flowers that they have at the Dollar Tree. I don't know why I love cocoons. I like how small they are and felt like you should have a mix when you make it. your bouquets have small flowers both long and large so I bought these and these are the lavender ones and of course I also like the greenery that's in each of these and then I picked up some of these. I really love them and I love the color of these, it's blue, but I see them almost as a lavender type blue, it's just, oh my gosh, it's so beautiful.

I love this color so I bought that one and then I bought these. They are like little wild flowers. This is one. Make a package here and I always look because I feel like I'm missing one. I always check your flowers when you leave the store because it may seem like you have them all there, but you may not. I actually have them all in this one, but I just like the way this was already combined for you, you get the pink flowers, the dark pink and the light pink, you have these little pink things sticking out here and this just says bouquet, you don't really have any names for the flowers. here, so I got those.

I also collected some vegetation while I was there. This just says garland, but I really like these particular leaves, how they look. I'm not sure if I'm going to cut them off this little vine or if I'm just going to leave them here and then I have this one here too, I guess it's like an ivy, maybe, so I bought them and then of course I always pick up my tin . I buy these floral blocks. I just realized. These are actually cut for you, which is really cool if you can see the little lines on them, how they're cut here so you can use as many as you want, two together or you can separate them and that was wonderful before I had them. cut them and these things make a mess because they're, I mean, it's like dust almost when you cut them, but I like these, but the traditional phone ones because the phone ones are too difficult for me. work with I mean you really have to push things down and this is a lot easier so I bought two of these and then I bought myself some small butterflies and I chose the jeweled butterflies versus the ones that are supposed to be more realistic, so I have a really nice yellow.

I love the golden yellow, it's so beautiful. I have a pink one. This pink I almost missed the very dark pink and almost had a purplish type look and then I got the blue. and these have like little cable ties on them of course you can cut them and hot glue them if you want so I bought them and I think this is the last item I picked up and I always find something after the fact that I missed and I couldn't show it , but I saw these when I was leaving the store and I hadn't even looked at it.

I just thought they sounded good. Oh, I picked it up, but they're called prayer cards and they had two different types. I went ahead and picked up both. I'll open them up in just a minute so you can see this, it's from Crown Jewels and it says on the front inspirational prayer and scripture cards for yourself and others and for each package. It has twenty cards, so this is the first packet and then this is the second packet. This would also be a really good thing. Put it in someone's basket, especially if you have friends who are housebound and things like that can't always be taken out. it makes them smile, someone comes in with a little basket full of nice things that they can have next to them, so anyway I'm opening this up so you can see this and on the front it says today's prayer and then on the back of this card says look you are beautiful and then says the bible verse I am Song of Solomon for someone down here faith can move mountains let your light shine before others you know it's just little bible verses God is within it, it won't just drop some nice little inspirations and then this something changes color because you know this started like this and it has a lavender background, so I mean, it's the same thing.

I just met different colors and then it just changes, it's got pink colors here so I thought that was really nice, let me see how the other ones, the other ones, they're probably exactly the same, they just have a different pattern, yeah. Is that so? The only difference is just the font type and everything is a little bit different, but you know, these colors change like in the last set and then as you can see, I really think I like them more. like a typewriter tie and then the color changes from blue to pink which is like mint green so yeah these are really pretty I like them I actually like the idea of ​​maybe framing them and putting them up in a photo frame.

Instead of giving someone a whole pack of them, if you don't want to frame it, you can just pop one of these into the basket on its own or just insert it into a card you're going to give them. Yes, that was a lot of fun and fun for a dollar, but that's it for my dollar tree. Anyway, my next video coming out will be on DIY, unfortunately I don't think I'll have that many. Easter and Spring DIYs, like I did for Valentine's Day, my stuff is pouring in. I'm not one of those people who is very creative in terms of being able to come up with something and come up with three or four different DIYs in a week.

I wish I were, but I'm not, so I just have to make them as they come to me. If you come to me, I might post a few more, but I have other ideas about other different videos I want to make. I still think you'll like it, you know, even if it's not a DIY for spring or Easter anyway. I appreciate you coming today and spending some of your time with me. Thank you very much for watching and we'll see you next time.
