    Chip brushes have natural bristles and wood handles. and if you take them, in various sizes, instead of throwing them out, distress the handles, leave the stain paint etc in the bristles and hang them by drilling a hole in the end of the handle….they look like antique brushes for decorating. Hand them on a wall or Putin a small crock.🥰

    Glad you kept your coop table the sentimental value cannot be beat. Paying tribute to the original owners is a great idea. Thank you for this video my neighbor was getting rid of a stool I grabbed it and it’s still sitting in the backyard will have to get some citrus strip and work on it.

    My kitchen table was from Ikea. It was a pine table top with separate legs. I had the table top Cut to size at the hardware store so that it would fit my small kitchen area. I distressed it with hitting it with chains, gouging & digging in it with a screwdriver (a great stress reliever, ha). I stained it with a brown mahogany and then put on a polyacrylic matte finish. I've been using it now for about 9 years and you would never guess it was a pine table and it really has a rustic look to it so it works perfect in my home. I'm definitely a believer and figuring out what you want and making it happen, thanks for your video!♥️

    Sarah, the story of your home parallels to mine. I live in a farmhouse, in the city, that was built in 1917, which at the time was in the country. The family that built it, had started the first commercial chicken 🐔 farm in the Midwest. I had never considered to use a chicken crate in my home, but your idea of the coffee table, has me thinking of where I could use a smaller one somewhere. Great aging process on your pieces!

    Miss Sarah, Question: How did you find your "happy place" as a designer? This business can be very tedious, and sometimes you can lose yourself to others. How did you grow past this? You seem so happy with yourself and what you've achieved. A breath of fresh air in an otherwise stale business. I just love your blog! Thank you

    • @Hollyhock7
      @Hollyhock7 2 года назад +3

      You might ask yourself these questions:
      1. What era in history are you most drawn to? What do you find so intriguing or interesting about it? Do you find the aethetic and designs of that era comforting and inspiring? If so, how can you use certain elements of those designs to bring into your home... sprinkling them throughout your own design style.
      2. What are your design values? Do you prioritize a certain feeling you want your home to exude??? Maybe "comforting" or "serene"... maybe "energizing" or "inviting"..
      3. What do you love most about some of your favorite designers' styles .. try to take notes on the specific things they do that you love, that way you can do the same things but in your own way. It's better to be conscious about what it is exactly that you're drawn to, writing it down helps!

    • @Hollyhock7
      @Hollyhock7 2 года назад +3

      I also need to always remember why design is important. Understanding why we do it, is helpful. I design because it brings me joy and I love see a space transform into something that resembles how my Soul feels inside!!! Its like an outward reflection of your inner imagination ♡♡♡♡

    • @SheHoldsDearly
      @SheHoldsDearly  2 года назад

      Suzan, decorating is ultimately a creative process and too many deadlines and restrictions will kill creativity. Make sure to enjoy Pinterest and lots of time working on your own spaces to keep the passion alive.

    I love how the stools turned out. I have a stool just like that, but it’s painted black. I’m feeling inspired to give the Citristrip a go and give the stool a “new” old look. It has a few dings already but it looked fun to age it some more! Thanks for the inspiration Sarah!

    Have you thought of a built in at the window wall?
    I'm sure can figure out it's layout.
    Window seat with storage,
    and book shelving unit on both sides of window in your glorified hallway.
    What a great place to curl up with a book in front of your wood burner.
    You can use a trestle table "as a dining area or just a cushioned lounging surface. Hope this helps.

    I just used a wired brush for aging wood, because I didn't have the wire brush end, for my drill, either. The wire bush does work, or it did for me, anyway, you have to run it the opposite of the wood grain. It brings out the texture of each rib of wood, making it sort of bumpy, and it does scratch it up some.

I’m actually going to try to use typewriter on raw wood as a stain to keep that grain and some of the warmth of the wood….., I just need the snow and extreme cold to stop.
