    Thanks, everyone for watching! I had issues with this video having a few glitches in it. If you see weird flashing colors, it's not your device, it's a video issue. 😑Have a Merry Christmas!

      Mary please never leave the old upholstery.. u could have cut it up to the staples to get it off.. it is soo unhygienic..the amount of dust and dirt under old upholstery you make you gag

      I agree! I can just imagine what could have ended up on it through the years! It definitely looked as if it was the original fabric from my experience! Otherwise, it turned out pretty and I love the leg’s.

    @chichita9202 Год назад +1

    the stools would also make good plant stands. The ivy set is an imitation I think. If you look at the bottom the manufacturer stamp can give you a clue. Happy makeovers!

    I remember walking with my brothers and sister to a local Two Guys dept store to buy my Mom a mother's day gift...this was in NJ about 50 years ago...we purchased a boxed set of ironstone dishes with ivy all around ...looks similar if not the same...not sure what happened to them but we had such a good time shopping for them together...wonderful memory!

    My husband took me thrifting and junk store shopping often. He loved finding old tools and guy stuff like that..our last outing was for our 43rd anniversary ..we loved a good country drive and find junk stores on the way. He passed away May 2024 of cancer..cherished memories. ❤

    Love that little bench. My mom always loved birds and her favorite color is/was blue. I use to get her all kinds of bird things over the years. She went to heaven on 11/02/2022 at the age of 87.
    So seeing the fabric on the bench was a good memory of my mom.
    Great job. Thanks for sharing.

      Yes, I love Heritage dishes. Chose them for my everyday dishes when I got married in 1981 and never even considered adding China to the wedding gift list. When it came down to 3 unbroken dinner plates, I was forced to finally buy a different set of dishware in 2021, 40 years later!

    • @jeannieeakin1374
      @jeannieeakin1374 2 года назад

      @@rebeccaturner7097 I love to thrift mine. I find them thrifting all the time. I just look for the ones with the impressed stamp on the back, as that means they are the vintage ones. Pfaltzgraff is still to this day making that pattern, but the newer ones are obviously cheaper made.

    Loved that rusty, crusty, distressed cream colored painted metal basket! I can think of so many great uses for it... magazines and newspapers, for holding my knitting/crochet projects and yarn, could even use it as a planter for a fern...
    I would have snapped it up!

    Hi, found your channel by accident and am so glad I did.. You do such wonderful things, a very talented Lady. A tip from an upholsterer for you. When recovering stools etc staple one side then the opposite side, rather than stapling all round, you get better tension in the fabric and a smoother result. Best wishes from the UK

    I loved every one of these projects. Those little tables turned out so cute. My favorite is the footstool. It was so ugly in the beginning. It was so clever of you to pin and sew and cut those corners. That step eliminated so much bulk. The bird fabric is adorable. I do not think I could part with this one. Merry Christmas, Mary, to you and your family. God Bless. Oh, the crates are great too.
