So last night, Ivy ( my 3-month old veiled ) ate 4 crickets from my fingers . I've had her since Sunday , my question now is, how can I start earning her trust handling wise? I had my hand near her for 10 mins so she can climb but just stared, she wasn't turning dark or hissing/biting like she does with my gf. Hand was about 3-5 inches away.

Also heat wise, her enclosure hits about 75-82 , how can I get more heat? Would live plants work?? If soo what kind?

Live plants are always better it will help with humidity aswell, as far as heat just get a higher wattage bulb. What bulbs are you using now?

What does her enclosure look like because from the pic it seems like coco husk and one vine.

I can post a better pic of the tank, it's one of those glass ones with the mesh top and double doors in front.

It's 75 watts, ill have to check the rest,
And for the vines there's 3 ATM but I'm buying her some plants tomorrow,
What plant do you recommend??

Golden Pothos are cheap, easy to find in stores, are safe to eat, grow like crazy, and have long sturdy vines for climbing. Theyre probably the most popular for cham enclosures.

Well I use dwarf umbrella tree plant there is a list on the site for the best pants for them. I had a ficus but they are way too fragile and messy for me. With those glass enclosures be sure to be extra clean especially with that back drop they can get moldy and grow bacteria very easily.
