This is the first time I have watched one of your videos. I always enjoy watching Dollar Tree reviews and organizing ideas. I'm not much of a DIY decorator and part of the reason for that is because there are too many steps to creating the DIY. Thank you so much for sharing a couple that were super simple.
Keep spiders and bugs away from your body by applying (or spraying on) Peppermint Essential Oil (in a spray bottle of water, or straight from the oils bottle on your ankles. Proven to work.
You could also plant some marigolds around your yard or your little flower garden. That helps repels mosquitoes as well. Down here in Florida. The mosquitoes are on steroids. They’re huge down here, but spearmint lemongrass and marigold are the three main things that I keep in my garden because it repels yellow flies mosquitoes And other pesky insects.
Shannon, you are such an encouragement to me. I love your ideas. I’m in the hospital after an appendectomy it’s 4 am and I grabbed my phone to watch my favorite RU-vidrs
Mine are 30 and 35 and I wish they were young again. It’s so hard when they move on and have their own lives no matter how proud we are we still miss them.
Wow! Lots of cool stuff. I like the mosquito wipes. They love me. My mom told me about how when were were at Camp Lejeune in N. Carolina while my dad was in the Marines we would all be sleeping with her between us and in the morning my dad and I would be well bitten and she wouldn't have any. She found out later that vitamin B 12? Helped..she had been on a regime of shots from her doctor so the little blood suckers didn't bite her. Some say it isn't true but mom swore by it since that's the only reason she could think of why she never got a bite. 🤷♀️
I spray and rub Skin So Soft bath oil from Avon onto any exposed skin to help keep the mosquitoes away. I've been doing this for 30 years now, it worked when I lived in Michigan, Ohio and Texas (yes the Texas mosquitoes are three times as big as the northern ones, their bites feel like a small version of a bee sting, OUCH!)
You ask for tips on avoiding pester bugs. I have used a large dog tick and flee collar. Now they even have it with mosquitoes. Cut it as long as you or need. Pin the pieces to your cloths. I had to do this while babysitting. Many years ago. Also it was used for when the troops went to boot camp.hope you find something.😊😊😊
Thanks, Shannon, for showing the Dollar Tree items and how to use them. When I'm at Dollar Tree, I get a bit overwhelmed by the variety of items and don't see everything they sell. Again, thanks and you do such good work here on the Tube! 😄😄😄
Shannon, what great finds, love the straw topper, the oval Regan looking shelf you made, and that flower bag to carry beautiful flowers in and give to someone is a must have. Looking forward to see how you have used the rest of the products. Tsm
