    Complete awesomeness! I think the apothecary cabinet would be crazy cute with legs too!!!

    • @georgiasmith9477
      @georgiasmith9477 Год назад +2

      I was thinking the same thing! 😅 It’s cute like it is but legs would take it to the next level. (Pun intended)

    • @denisekuenzel9465
      @denisekuenzel9465 10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, it definitely needs legs. I also would like the other piece better if those legs were painted white to match.

  • @daphneschulz
    @daphneschulz Год назад +107

    I love them both! The only thing I would do differently is maybe add some bun feet in a natural wood finish to the apothecary cabinet too! But like I said absolutely beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

    • @beverlyburns4281
      @beverlyburns4281 Год назад +14

      I was thinking that same exact thing!

    • @chanaheszter168
      @chanaheszter168 Год назад +7

      Yup! Bun feet or taller. Low glass equals tiny handprints. Just saying...

    • @heidigresh2743
      @heidigresh2743 Год назад +6

      Same thoughts… bun feet.

    • @patriciaoldfather6377
      @patriciaoldfather6377 Год назад +7

      I was thinking some simple short legs.
      I definitely think it needs to set up off the floor just a little bit. About 6 inches would be great. Otherwise, it is beautiful just like everything she does! 👍🏻😊

    • @boonedogglepip5463
      @boonedogglepip5463 Год назад +3

      Yes, some kind of feet or legs but I think I would hang it on the wall, as is. Love it.

    Hi Mary ~ These are wonderful ! No I couldn’t do that, but I love watching you do all of this. Love the Buffet with the little open space under the top and those legs….love them in the wood tone ! Then the Apothecary Cabinet, how sweet is that !
    I do thank God daily for the amazing gifts and blessing He has given people. He gave you this gift of seeing items used in amazing ways ! Not everyone has that gift. We are to share those gifts with others and you do….whether it is someone purchasing your items or watching you create. I find such joy and peace watching you. You are a blessing for sure !
    I pray you have a blessed week ! 🙏🙏

    Sister from another mister. I snatch up all legs, spare pieces I can find. Used furniture is usually less expensive than lumber. Used to drive my husband crazy but now he says don’t you have something in your stash? Yes, yes I do. You are so inspirational. Love those pieces so much.

    How in the world do you look at the original piece and “see” two new creations that are so gorgeous and equally useful. They would grace any home with their attractive function!

Gotta get him to understand the potential and nobody proves that better than Mary. These pieces are absolutely beautiful. The white piece is exactly what I have been wanting for my kitchen. Love the apothecary one as well.

    Beautiful job, Mary, and it was so fun to watch your process. I love both pieces! I would even use that buffet as a stand for a modern flat screen TV-it’s perfect for that too. And I think I’d put short-ish, skinny legs on the apothecary cabinet like many of them have. So cute!

    Someone gave my mom a quilting hoop made out of cherry wood. It’s large. Thought I might want it to do something with. It’s Amish made from Ohio. I was thinking of just hanging it on the wall with a piece of my great grandmothers quilt. Do you have any ideas?
    I needed this video today. This is exactly what I want for my second bedroom being turned into a library room. Just love it Mary. You’re so creative.
    The bleed through or bubbling may be eliminated if you use a stain blocker primer, and a sanding, like Zinnsser Bin or another. I’ve had to do that. Have a blessed day Mary.
