Craft with Me - Temu Products & Chatty Craft 

Use pliers or snips to bend/cut the little pieces of metal from taking apart your dies.

Lovely cards, I’m a card maker too and love Temu, especially the paper and dies. As someone who lived with chronic pain for over 5 years, it affects all aspects of your life. I had severe pain in my hips which caused me to avoid walking. That led to weakened muscles and even more difficulty walking. I lived overseas and kept being told it was arthritis and if I did physical therapy, it would get better. Even had a PT tell my husband that I was “unmotivated”. Finally returned to the states and my regular doctor. Turns out, I had degenerative arthritis that had eaten away the cushioning in my hips and was just bone rubbing against bone which explained the severe pain. I was immediately sent for hip replacement surgery. Two years later, my walking is back to normal with no pain, back pain has disappeared and I am able to work at a job where I stand for 8 hours (I’m 60!). The point of this long story is you don’t have to just accept the pain. Ask your doctor for a referral to a specialist. At the very least, they may be able to lessen the pain you have now and they may even be able to find the source of the problem and fix it. Take care of yourself and your family! New subbie here! My favorite is #2 and the mirror card came from Hunkydory!

My crafts include drawing/doodles , recently jewelry for Barbie type dolls, 😊 and making junk journals….!

I love your haul videos! I can tell you how to get those little metal bits off your dies. You need a pair of wire cutting pliers that have a side where you can get close to the die and a side where it keeps the plier away from the die. Use the side where you can get close to the die and snip them off as close as you can. As for the shaking you mentioned, it sounds as if, when you had your child I am assuming you had an epidural, the nerves in your back were affected. I found you when I was looking at Temu hauls. I have bought quite few things I saw on your hauls, and have been very pleased with what I got. I like that you go through everything so we can see what everything really is. I live in the US, btw.

I use pliers to get those off. Apply pressure at the tip not the base and they will break off. 😊

Beautiful cards! I have started card making since I found Temu and have gotten those beautiful papers and stickers! I don’t have a lot of the different supplies but am trying to get there! These papers bring back to a time when we looked at the beauty in things instead of division and hatred. ❤ New subscriber! Yes, do more craft videos. I have supplies but need ideas on how to use them. I love the number 1 card! The silver card backing is from Hunkydory. I found you today and clicked to watch because the title said you were using Temu items. I watch a lot of Temu hauls but no one ever shows what they do with the products. You got my attention right away. Thank you!

A little to the party but I would LOVE for you to do a live! I would really like to watch that while crafting! 😄😄 love what you made, it’s absolutely gorgeous and an inspiration! Thank you for sharing ❤

Australia .yes I have ordered and love them. I make cards

I liked the card #2, it’s Hunkydory. 🥰

Would love #2, Hunky Dory. Found you by watching lots of Temu haul videos. Please don’t stop talking to yourself while crafting; I love it because it shows your thought process, which I find very helpful! I have 3 sons, each 3 years apart, and yes, they eventually calm down! Mine are all in their 40’s now, so it has been a while since they were active youngsters, but I’m sure they calmed down long before now! And if anyone is implying that you buy too much, it’s really none of their concern, is it? Please never feel that you have to defend or explain your purchases to anyone else!! I love your channel, your hauls, and your card making. As for the shaking, I suffer from hand and arm tremors, too, but mine are genetic. I also have spinal arthritis in my neck and lower back. Any ideas on controlling the shaking are greatly appreciated, as they definitely get in the way of crafting!

Loved your video and loved the cards. I would love to have card number 2.

You can get a metal file for the little burs on the dies. Also I get the small cutting pliers and can usually get most of them off. Fabric on Temu is hit or miss. Depending on what you’re using it for. For crafting it’s fine. I wouldn’t quilt with it for the most part.

Both cards are beautiful. Hunky dory for mirror card

Thank you fir sharing! I'm also a card maker,rather new into it but love all the beautiful cards you've made abd Temu papers. I also have the hunkedory scrip tablets,haven't used them yet,but you've given me great ideas. The paper you just used I just received so was excited to see end results! Great job ! I make cards for using home residents also and assisted living in a small Minnesota town,USA. I'd love either of your cards both equally beautiful. I'm a late starter,I will be a active, very busy 82 yrs young next week! Keep up your good work,and hugs for a great week!

I love no 1 I love hydrangeas. ❤️ hunkydorey x

I use my small jewelry wire cutters but any small cutters should work.👍

Hunky dory no 2 ❤️

Try using a pair of wire cutters to get rid of of the nibs on the die cuts, hope this helps.

I follow Craftygirl so I started flipping through and found other crafting and temu channels. I checked your site, enjoyed watching you do your cards while talking to us and I got hooked. Plus I love listening to you talk. I love your accent. I live in Florida USA.

I love seeing what you do with the supplies we all have bought. Keep them coming.

I bought some temu fabric! Its not great. If you were using it for collage or other fabric crafts where you would glue it; it would be fine. If you want heirloom quilting cottons: no way. Its a woven polyester blend, or full polyester. I do have some coming that says ‘twill’ but i doubt its a nice, true, cotton twill. I am using what i got to make some cute burp cloths, nothing fancy and will be lined with flannel. Your hauls are great! You actually showed me things that are sitting in my cart right now! The prices really are increasing too 😮 i am doing what you are and stocking up on things before it gets expensive. TFS your art, hauls, and creativity!

Pretty cards 🥰

Card 2 and Hunkadory

You don't have to explain how you can afford to buy so much, thats no ones business. Like your hauls

Very pretty cards! Thanks for sharing!

Love watching your hauls and your crafting !!!!!!

I just found you and love that you are showing how the product works. New subscriber, thank you for sharing. Love from Canada❤️

One of your videos came up on my phone as a suggestion to watch. So I started watchingbit and enjoyed it so I now watch all your videos. I am a card maker in Canada and enjoy seeing other cardmakers videos. I have three boys and work from home as well. My boys are older now but were quite a handful in their younger years. My hubby works 7 days a week at his business, so I am alone a lot as well. Talking to yourself is normal when you spend lots of time alone. I have that paper but haven't used it yet. Looking forward to your next video.

I make cards , and flowers , tags journal pieces , yes I just purchased my first two orders and love the items I brought. Boys are boys enjoy before you know it he be leaving school 💙

I found Temu via a link while blogging, and haven't regretted one single crafty buy yet! Even though I've only just found you today I love watching what you buy, and make, I also make a note to buy it 'next time.' I have subscribed. Keep on crafting! (Lyn)

I've made a few Temu orders, and found I enjoy watching Temu hauls. I crochet, and from there found crafting hauls, and yesterday clicked on one of your haul videos. I subscribed today. I think I want to get into paper crafts as well, and have a bunch of things already on my wishlist. Your guillotine cutter looks handy! I'm going to check out my local Joann's and see what they have for beginners. Thank you for the video!

To remove the wee nubs on your dies I use my small plyers cutters. Works great. I also make cards as well as making journals. I love making grungy ephemera as well. Great video ... I'm a new subbie from Canada. Your channel just popped up on my playlist and it's probably because I watch a lot of Temu hauls. Just to see what the quality is like in some products I maybe interested in. Most are enabling me lol. I have loved everything I've received so far from Temu and I buy twice a month usually. I used to buy from Wish and Ali Express but their shipping has gotten too expensive. I love these paper pads for making cards. Tyfs my crafty friend ❤❤❤

Hello from Australia, your cards are beautiful and I never thought of mixing the temu papers with Hunkydory, I'm a massive Hunkydory customer and have all those paper packs from Temu. Thanks for sharing ❤ your work.

I have been watching you for at least a couple of months. I found you by chance. Autoplay on temu hauls. I loved that it was from the UK . I loved this video. I am also making some cards from my sister who lives in the UK. 😊

I found you because I searched Temu crafts. I love the hydrangeas. Beautiful! hunky-dory ❤ And thanks for the link I previously requested, I just got the small floral cards. They are beautiful. A live craft with me would be fun.

Beautiful cards. I love the card number 1. It's the butterflies. Lol. I have some of that mirri card, it's from Hunky Dory. Quite expensive here in Canada but worth it, it is so pretty.

Love to have #1. thanks for sharing your card making. They are so nice. . Hunky Dory

For me i found you because i was searching for temu haul videos because i was thinking of ordering but wanted to see the quality of the stuff they did. Loved your videos because you were the only one that came up that was based in the UK so that was really helpful for me with prices etc.

Also, would love some live craft-alongs❤️

Sorry for keep coming in but you need to be more in centre when making your cards …. Yes yes would love a live video

Beautiful

To take off the little notches use small jewellery wire cutters.....just the point gently and those notches will come off......that's what l do....x

A thin nose pliers can cut those tags from your circle dies

So first let me say you could totally talk more in opinion. Honestly I love hearing your thought process. I love Temu paper crafting supplies and I’m new to them. Didn’t real think about doing cards until watching these craft videos after watching your Temu hauls. I have a question for you the card itself. Do you buy them already that way or are you cutting them and folding them? I have absolutely loved every card I’ve seen you make so far. But if I pick I’d go with #1 The mirror card is from HunkyDory. I wrote it down so I can order some. Lol. Thanks for sharing I so appreciate it

Also a professional artist told me to eat a banana an hour before needing a steady hand. Something to do with the potassium.

#2, NOT the birdcage. The silver backing looks like it’s from Hunky Dory. I used to love working with the silver color.

I have a lot and I mean a lot so I have had some stick over it,but I don’t go out I don’t drink and I don’t smoke so I have my craft things which is my fix, so don’t explain why you have a stock. I have bought a lot of stuff that I have bought and don’t know what to do with, but I have kept them and I have used some for other things. You are a crafter and so I am the same. Good luck with your projects

Use a jewellery pillars to take the notches off by wiggling them , by the way what you buy and what you spend your money on has nothing to do with anyone else… I over buy to makes me happy and feel good … love your videos ❤❤

If you still got the notches on your dies you remove them by using crafting pliers

#1 Amazon

I use my small plyers cutters or nipers. i have a son he is 25 now and all over the place whin he was little hes over the place and he helps at 25 stell moveing fast lol some yes and some no .lol i was told the same thing when i had Falcon thay did a x-ray in my hips arthritis lower spine . i shake and my hands go num. Temu hauls. just looking to see what outher crafters get .#2 think u Hunky Dory

You need some snips to get rid of the sharp bits on your dies, I use a pair of memory wire cutters. I spent about an hour the other evening, tidying up the dies I’ve bought from Temu, it was well worth the time spent as I was having the same problem. I’m also a card maker, just getting into book binding. I also sew and make jewellery - I just craft for my own enjoyment. I’ve spent my weekend trying to decluttering and reorganise as much as I can - I’m disabled and will have to wait for my son to come and help. My son was diagnosed with ADHD when he was 6, he didn’t sleep through the night until he 9 and a half years old. He and I have been through some tough times, especially when he was a teenager but we got through it. He’s in his early thirties now and he’s so helpful and considerate even though he still struggles due to his ADHD. In answer to your question, I found you through your Temu craft haul video and I’m now a subscriber. I would be happy to watch a live stream craft video. I have to admit I’m curious about where in the UK you are? Your accent reminds me of my Nottingham relatives. I’m down on the south east coast now but I’ve also lived in Nottingham and Lancashire at different times. I love both cards and can’t decide between them but the silver card was Hunkydory.

Thank you for all the information. I abbreviate the names and that's because comments mentioning sellers usually don't get posted or they get deleted. Both Ali and Te are platforms for merchants. Most are active on both platforms. So it's not Te or Ali selling it. I think Te is trying to market himself against Ali and has given huge discounts, especially when the app was launched in the Netherlands. I bought some stuff from Ali, for years. There are not many craft stores in the Netherlands, so you have to buy everything online and if you have to pay shipping costs at every store, you will eventually end up at a platform. And now with the massive discounts, I came to order from Te. The service, for example in case of return or damage, is much better, especially faster. I do compare the prices on both platforms. I find it useful to see how products are. Preferably if they've already tried it. The stickers and those little booklets with sheets are very disappointing to me. Good luck with your RU-vid channel. You learn along the way!
