hello everybody how you're doing we alright always quite a lot of you here any which is very exciting so thank you for joining me can we just check that everything's working let me know and let me know if you can hear me alright and all that good stuff so as you can see I am at my table and I'm all set up and ready to go today we are going to be doing at Sun up cycles of Sun candle jars and also some coffee jars I think working well thank you so much guys for letting me know that's bad and so let me know in the comments where you're watching from as well and and you've got a little drink on the go as well I have got I've got coffee and my mug says can you say coffee till cocktails that's the mood so we'll get through these DIYs never on the cocktails off this mmm good evening everybody nice to see you too right then that's so we're gonna get straight into these because I've actually got quite a few to get through today so you may notice I've got pan here so I'm already asking for trouble and we've got the glue gun here I don't know why I'd like to put the table long ways as well so I can sit you on the end of it so I'm a bit short of space I popped a little few bits down here as well which I'll be showing you in a little bit and then I will check in unto the comment in a little bit but just the time being I'm gonna try and concentrate while we do the hot part otherwise you know what might happen so we're just a health and safety post and all that so I mean the first candle jar that we're going to be an upcycling today is one of these ones that came with the gold lid only this was just one from Aldi so you may well have something similar now this candle did well where the wick was too long so there's lots of candle wax left over it you can see and ran the edges there where it's done that so what I did is scraped all of that wax out now you can put your candle jars into the freezer if you want to it makes it much easier to pop the backside I just scraped it out with spoon and then what I've done here lookout is I've got a hot pan so pan of boiling water which was just scrambling around in the kitchen for Gail I'd sorting this out and into which I have added the wax now as you can see it hasn't quite melt all melted yet you want to wait for that to all go clear so not sure what to do now I don't know whether we wait for it or whether we just sort of attempt this bit and then move on so no you're all busy I'm going to give that a little stir around actually that's helping so while I'm doing the stirring here I'm going to explain to you this next part of this one so what you want to do is take a another candle you've burnt out so get all the wax out of it again you want to pop the wax out and then I bought these wicks these came from Amazon but you can buy them on eBay as well and hello everybody hope you're doing really well and so yeah get your wick in glue gun it into the base it comes with a little metal bit so that's that and I've added some sellotape at the top here so you can see that's kind of just holding the wick into position and I've left a little gap where hopefully we'll be pouring our wax into in a minute it's quite warm today isn't it or am I just the only one I'm sweating get some air in so hot where you are where you're watching from God views everywhere well we've got Manchester's and Helen's lorida fabulous so um we have tents as well and in Coventry hello everybody so this now is looking a little bit more clear isn't it so what I'll do is I'll just I'll just go with this I mean you can see there's still some on the spoon so it's not ideal but you know we're just crack on because we are live and all that so what I'm gonna do now is carefully pour this into the candle jar here so do be careful when you're doing this this wax is all hearts Oh you know it's done you might need to help me out of face as I poured it out it's solidified up the spiral isn't it what total waste of wax will have to remelt that there I'll scrape that back in and we'll rethink up there no let's not go though we'll let that bit do its thing that later you can do it in layers if you want to I could have done with a bit more wax with this than what you can always do is just let that one settle and solidify sorry and then you could add another layer from maybe another candle you get like a a multi book few different fragrances going on which would beef hello in North Carolina doing well hello in rural North Wales and Somerset fabulous right there we go so that is our first DIY I'm just gonna pop a little bit of tape the taste of the model a I've got I just nearly I've got candle next to the cellar tape and now my hand smells earth yeah singed hair sorry we will undo it again right there we go so that's now sort of tapes out staying upright kind of vibe and then we're gonna let that harden number one done okay on to our next one now let's just carefully get rid of this before we cause any more damage on this one down here and we're going to move on having a sneaky look at my list as well well while I'm down here right let's move on to a stick the glue guns warmed up so if this one wants to play ball today you playing ball today yeah right let's move on to the hot glue one we'll get that one other way as well and we pop these to one side as well hang on to this I'm gonna be using a little bit later on there so for the next one you're going to need and some old coffee jars so I've got a many one here this is one of those one comes of different flavors do you know the ones I'm talking about I think there was pumpkin in this one and so I've taken the lid off this one and then I had another one comment which coffee this came from there's another coffee jar lid here and what I thought we'd do with this is make a little addictive piece we're going to make a little like planter sort of like here goes so if those things don't let me make sure you can see this all right we'll see okay so we move this will bit closer to me we're going to add and a blob of hot glue onto the smaller of our two lids now you could use any lids for this you could use some nice metal ones if you've got some lying around you can use lids from anything you just want to have a little bit of depth in it because we're going to be filling that up and that's gonna be come on plan sir so I'm just gonna hold that into position and let that dry this is a sort bit that I would time-lapse usually and put some music over it so we'll just have a little look in a little chaps right then how we doing hello in Essex and London wool wool work and I'm just reading through R instead we've got Los Angeles as well and no about today no not at all okay so yeah this could be a wonderful baby succulents absolutely and the good thing about plastic lids is that you can drill that son holes into that really easily if you wanted to and actually favorite.she Gloucestershire hello how you're doing let me know what drinks you've got if you've got a drink on the go you've got a little cup of tea something cheeky in the maldives I'm so jealous I'm having a lovely evening hello Tony right so onto this that's that's so dry now hello in Sheffield in Manchester we are going to add some little legs so what I've done here is I've trimmed down one of these skewers so you can get these from the pine shops so young blonde like this style very nice Sarah you can get those in and pan shops or budget stores or we're at the hook II have some lying around I'd only be sending you guys out to the shops unnecessarily and but maybe you picked up in this while you're in there as well and so we're going to trim four pieces I've already done this there same sort of height this is just to give your plants a little leg so you can decide how tall you want these to be it's really up to you and now got nervous we're gonna glue these on to the edges now the good thing about this thing is it's got flat bits on it can you see so that will help us glue this on protects your nice lovely stuff love a little Pepsi so I'm gonna add some hot glue to the legs and we're gonna just glue each one into place I'm gonna go right to the top can you say hello in Portugal and it's still early in the States at a me and we've got Italy as well Diet Coke coffee coffee with Bailey's fabulous and hello Susan in Spain we've got Janine in on the red wine in Wiggins very very nice green tea Jill Denise I am on the telly I don't really know that makes me go funny you know that give me the heebie-jeebies when they move on to the next one because then when I go roughly round yet like voice of course isandro say so bit more hot glue on the next stick at this one on and well said we talked so Africa and we've got hartfordshire we've got vigilia my uncle Carrington is really really well he will be back on the phone Friday at 5:00 p.m. he did give me a call while I was in the bath to come dine with us PIM is o'clock with Georgina hello Elaine in the Midlands Louise having hot cocoa in Copenhagen very very nice team French a French fans tea I'm Jenison I'm Niki so we're gonna keep going around on to the next one you see how this is going hello Maddy in Plymouth and we've got New York I Love New York okay hello max in Ireland hope you're well so next one when it goes they're going quite quick quick struggling to keep up with these laws door Prosecco hello Mary in Toronto how you doing and right next one maybe nervous I don't know where they look a little bit wonky eye let's down the next one okay if any of you on Twitter would you mind giving my tweet a little retweet to say that I'm like to let people know I put a tweet on it's underscore mr. Carrington on Twitter if you wouldn't mind that would be fat and then some more people can come and do some crafting with us so there we go what we thinking I was late to someone to talk about Tulio left awake the comments it's a bit of delay that wasn't there okay so we've got a legs on it so it's now looking like I think more like a little baby blonde stand there we go oh we got Luke hello buddy how you doing Luke's made a and a fabulous dessert today to come down with us he looked incredible very very jealous it's hoping that somehow slice that ends up a but that's not gonna happen anytime soon is it okay so we think it's cute good so what we're gonna do with that now pokey the legs will stay on is I've got here and some oat me I think you call it or porridge oats we're gonna use this instead of soil you could use oil if you're putting a real plant in this so I got this idea from lone fox and on YouTube one of his DIYs and it's just like a nice thing you might have lying around your house but hello could be a substitute for too much in an angle or soil I just give it that really nice texture looks quite cool doesn't it say almost looks kind of like gravel I know such a in Dorset how you doing and Texas as well oh cool so into that we need out of this one in goes thanks succulent or you could if you prefer and plant the real one as I say with some soil that's it so you know what you think you pop that in the background somewhere up here I can't see out there and yeah it's where I destroy the backdrop let's pop it there okay moving swiftly on let know you think of that one and what should we do next neat have a quick look at my list diffuser that's do I need a glue gun for anything else yeah let's do that let's get out another way I should get rid of the glue gun it makes me so nervous it's not to you the best of times and when we're live yeah I'm not really confident with it so we've got two of these these are just the standard little miniature only glass containers and all we going to do is stick the two together like this so blob of hot glue you can use superglue you know we love the glue gun here we pop a little glob on there and we'll glue these together that's not really working I think there's a little well in them unfortunately I need to go round the end the rim okay perfect right so those are glued together I've seen similar pieces to this when I see these I think I saw them flying tiger this kind of vibe you could leave that as it is tea light in there LED in there or whatever you like maybe even a little sucking in the top training Dan but if you fancy but I've got another thing that won't ever go away I've got this slug tape so this came from the pawn shop and this is a tape that you put around your plants I think just like revenge slugs climbing up it I thought we could have a go giving it a little bit of copper just to cover up a gap what do you think and we love loads box I'm sorry I'm missing comments that do apologize and I scrolled up on you I'll say hello bow how you doing I hope you're doing really well I know everybody that's just joy so if you have just joined we are upcycling old candle jars and coffee jars as well how much do I need I'm just gonna measure that around and then a little bit of overlap trim that off this is where I can't get the back off okay okay I'm gonna touch this come on I've got a bit of a weird angle there we go so this is like this stuff's like metal and it's kind of flexible the likes of it bright sorry if you can't see that properly and there's a lovely really appealing string of hot glue stuck to my hand that but there we go so that is that one and then I'm thinking all you need to do with that once that's done where is he he is here but there was so much oh yeah you'll see on Friday that's all I'm gonna say yeah you causing me bother again so we'll just like a little and it's like little candles pop into this one so Tony so you can stick the slow tape to card first if you wanted it to be I guess nice and Australia's how are you saying Elizabeth Elizabeth sorry apologies is saying that the slug tape will discolor as well and then look even better so there we go that is that what do we reckon we're feeling it onto the next one pop that one here you see if I can get them into shot together there we go right then how many we got left to do if you want we've got three more don't keep you too long this evening hopefully a little quick tidy up my checking with the comment so we liking that one yet thank you very much good evening Shems my concrete video sorry and thank you for joining doesn't matter if you're late and this will be saved afterwards as well hello in Manchester and Emma's looking forward to Friday brilliant stuff so Friday is the final everybody come and I've come down with us so as well as it being like the last in that series you've also got the opportunity to vote for your winner so and we're gonna do a separate vote for you'll be able to click through to and though your chosen winner so very exciting and yeah and I'll be at 5 p.m. on Fridays and you have a quick sip of your coffee just checking in and comment we're liking it good hello in India hope you really well ok on to and our next one this one is so simple I'm going to do this one next get rid of this down there press set by to my carpet during a live isn't it yeah don't fall home by the last one nosedived onto itself and not weld itself into the holder so so the next one and we're going to do really simple little upcycle so this is and you may well have some of these lying around that you've emptied out all just quickly actually and can anyone give me a good little saying or just something that's like two words I can pop on there and if I don't get oh I'm just going to do stay home but if anyone's got one can you type it in now we're gonna just put a little slogan on the front with the label maker so I'd love it if anyone's got one while we're doing while I'm waiting and I'll just show you what we do so we're gonna take some zoflora I feel like I've got a book coming on as well so do apologize it slips out sad-eyed hopeful came on you only just need a little pick-me-up anyway so flora and then we're going to add some of this you can also use some essential oil as well what we got chillax sniffing oh we got loads keep positive cozy bags I like that one why'd you cozy vibes love life love like live life stay stay love it breathe oh that's nice oh there's so many no the cheese spring vibes stay calm thank you guys he's a fat beat kite I would like be fine as well but when did I say first I should do that one and I forgot cozy vibe let's do that so we expect that the label maker if you all of these these are bad I highly recommend them just so that you can like label your life like Nagel everything so we'll do cozy it in two separate ones keep pressure print that's the most satisfying part actually this is the most satisfying part cozy vibes on it and thank you can do something that I can spell you liking cozy buds excellent so I might got a screenshot these optimist like the future DIYs it's nice to play some really fab so and onto you can just watch one of these out peel the label off I've left the one on the back because then you know rushing and all that but we can get that off and I'm gonna say quite easily but these always going to come off let's get that off there we go that's off now and then we can really simply take the lid off you go in with some of your zoflora we can use some essential oil so I just use a little funnel tip that in you can do it straight up which one extra strong or I would suggest diluting that I probably put too much in there to be honest with you and I forgot to bring any water I forgot water got my water bottle so talking with the label maker I labeled my water bottle and so that I just use this all day now so I've been using a million cups throughout the day so there we can water that down a little bit I don't know I feel like this one's so simple does it even classes an upcycled or a DIY I don't know and a very easy one to do and it's a lot cheaper than buying brand new and diffusers I've got the container here as well so this is an old and light liquor bottle I thought the shape was quite nice so we could do another one on that you wanna let me know how it is time let me know another phrase let me know what your favorite one was from the last law and we pop one on there as well just get the floor in that as well see if there's any suggestions that you like just now we can have those in look at some water again breathe be kind to think deeply kind that's a really nice one has anyone done this if you don't like so flora absolutely use and just essential oils if you want something more than natural product maybe she thought that text around the hood or anything quite strong so this is a disinfectant and so you'd be more than and going to use that and smell just as great I'm sure so that's that one and I've got these ones that I just saved from another one but had lying around so that's that and then label they crowd again all the batteries might be flat for a second down okay looks like an experiment let's say there we go that's that one what's up what having to their tinnitus evening if you haven't had it yet let me know I had a jacket potato I've been making jacket potatoes in slow cooker so there's one I don't know why it's gone this milk people I think that would probably and don't clear after a while it's not what I had in mind - it was quite cool doesn't they the Y against the black funky the back off hello Katie I'm really good thank you how are you doing Oh what was that was a good idea I missed it Oh put food coloring in them I love that idea yes excellent stuff hello do well sorry how do you miss any comments and there we go Oh could you guys if anyone hasn't given the video a little thumbs up yet would you mind awfully video a little thumbs up thumbs up if you liked these if you're gonna give them a go we're 82 thumbs up at the moment I'm going to see how much of chums 91 thank you very much if you just press the thumbs up so there we go that's that 109 it's not when you do this thank you so much guys that's bad I'll keep an eye on the can and let you know how we're doing so you can flip these over as well when you want it to smell a bit more 132 really this is fat and we've got 450 people watching it there so I want my twice it's I'm sorry to be bending you off that long and then move on to the next one so you can flip them over and that's gonna get your house smelling really really nice okay so on to our next one what is this I forgot quick sip of the coughing a little bit look at my nose boom I've got here the most simple of all the most simple thing you can do with these containers is pop the wax out give them a good clean and just use them as they are for storage containers so if you've got some really nice decorative ones like this one that's from Anthropologie maybe put some nice ones any nice glass designs feel free to just and do that and you can by all means use them so again this one I think with the gold blade maybe just get a label made from that as well you can keep some cotton buds in that in your bathroom and it would look fab so that's the most simple upcycle you can do with you own candle jars just make some storage containers and also and some of your on my Instagram today suggested this and show me that they actually use these to keep some spices in so you again you can get the label maker out and these are really nice sort of simple design with them being straight edged these will fit into your cupboards really nicely so they're not gonna waste any space there things like herbs and maybe some like baby ingredients going to those absolutely no bother and you can stick a label or you could always get a sharpie and just write on the lid as well maybe stick a sticker on the front of those that's the most simple one that you can do on the to pitch frames so you can get the lids from your candle jars which often once you've got your candle you kind of put to one side anyway so I've got a couple here as you can see so with these metal lids what we're going to do is turn these into picture frames so all you need is a photograph that you want to frame or maybe you can just go for some of greetings cards or like some prints that you may have lying around and then just draw around them so you just need to rather than a pencil and draw around the circle of your lids so just whip around that did you see what just happened well ignore that if I took you back up if I turn you back up and yeah that didn't happen I think I just lost action did you see what happened a little spillage oh it's buffering sorry good I'm cutting out our circle a lot you say it's buffering hopefully we're back oh it keeps freezing I'm so sorry guys I don't think it hits that time in the evening where everybody's on the internet maybe I don't know if you saw what happened I'll just show you again quickly that's what happened we're back yeah so that's what just happened I don't if you missed that burn ya managed to knock the N succulent container over yeah you were back hopefully you can see that now good okay perfect thank you guys thank you for letting me know and so we cut a circle out and then from the lid there's usually a bit of plastic in here that we want to get that I asked the mini hands to clean the mess up if then if you've got a dill there you might wanna click out and click back in and then hopefully we'll resync me it's my voice I only chose delay on the and what you're seeing meanwhile I'm just trying to get this out I'll have to use yeah there we go so take that piece out as you can see and then you can pop in whatever it was that you want to put inside and there we go so as you can see that's now in a little frame and what you can do oh yeah sorry I was just angling you down so that you could see so you can see the mess but we don't look at unless anybody right there we go so yeah as you can see and the frame is now they're complete with the picture inside it and what you can do with these I want to show you nothing really quickly so I don't know if it was buffering we just literally whip out the plastic from the inside sometimes it's tricky someone glued in yeah oh yeah there we go so you take out that bit you draw around your lid you see yeah let me move my coffee for you so draw annelids these ones are so easy to do as well so I'm hoping that a few of you will have a go of this one tag me in your pictures on Instagram if you do mr. Carrington the word mr. and then Carrington and mr. Carrington home Duke over there and give me a little follow always a free chat over on Instagram so just cut around your circle with your design in the middle or you could go for photos with this as well you may want to just print out some pictures that you may have as well you could go for some light nice Instagram ones and then where you want pop it in that's it so easy and it kind of just sits and they don't even need any glue with this one because because of the way that lids are they just sit there I think that looks really flat and exactly that I'm kind of corny yet so you can turn these into fridge magnets so you just put a flat magnet on the back if you want to and you can stick those on your fridge or you can just do like a little chain or very simple little piece of string and glued on to the back and that's it so I feel like we're liking this one so more thumbs up if you liked it so we're now at 236 thumbs up so thank you so much for the thumbs up guys I really appreciate it and if any of you aren't subscribed already please do subscribe it really helped me out any means that you'll never miss a video so if I'm not the table it makes you by Bray because you are on the laptop on a jigsaw puzzle so that's the setup that we've got this evening so there we go and are we there now gun Moll that's it done that done that done that done that we've done that and we've done that let's have a little look at how I can was getting on from the start there we go right then so you just take the own potato trim the wick off probably use that for another one when you candle let me show you so obviously to keep going with that fill it up a little bit more but you've got a brand new candle out of any sort leftovers that you've got as well so that is it so I'll just whisk through them all I didn't pick this one up and let me know if you have a go at any of these thank the thumbs up has jumped again thank you so much and so we have our miniature succulents planter container let me know which is your favorite when I showed you more we've got that one we have got this candle holder which gives it a bit of height which is quite nice I think for a table centerpiece if you want to get some height with your candles you've got that one made out glass you've got our miniature picture frames for fridge magnets or just to hang up I feel like a group of these would look really really nice if you did like several on a wall and had all different shapes and sizes hello it crispy nugget thank you for the donation as well Kenny that's really kind of many donations are coming like that just pass them straight on to the NHS that's really lovely thank you so much and hello crispy no it there we go so that's those two we have our diffusers oil diffusers and and our candle this is what I have to do again shooting videos doing my thumbnail and pretend that's happening I there we go I'll screengrab that low to actually and swap my thumbnail over so which is our favorite mini plunge in the phrase yeah nice little bits of room deck or that good fun thing to do you've got some kids as well you maybe do have a go some of these if you've got children as well like in the diffusers as well excellent fat stuff okay so that is it for this evening guys I hope you enjoyed and this evenings like DIY with me and give it a little thumbs up if you did don't forget to hit subscribe if you haven't done so already we've had feedback here so this week on Friday we've got come down with us with looping cage that is going to be back Friday at 5 p.m. so we're so exciting to see there that that is going to kick off with me at 5 p.m. I'm doing starter and then it will be over to Kate's house the main course and then Luke is bringing you the dessert this week then and on Sunday at 8 a.m. I'm doing a full house speed clean so if you want to get some cleaning motivation that's what I'm going to be doing with you on Sunday I've been blitzing around the house kind of a cool it like clean of cheating cleaning whizzing round doing it really quick sharing all my little tips to help me do it really fast and get the motivation going so you can whisper and the house hopefully in a couple of hours and then yeah I'll be back with more stuff next week I've also filmed today I'm working from home with me video as well which includes a bit of a Q&A as well so that will be up for you early next week as well so head over to Instagram if you want to have a chat over there with me it's listed current in the word mr.anand Clarington and my home account is mr.
