DIY Upcycling Thrift Flips into Unique Home Decor (Using the 3 B’s)!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июл 2024
- In today’s video, I turn a variety of old thrift store finds into unique, useful, and stylish home decor using the 3 B’s. The DIY projects include creating a wall shelf from a picture frame, an embellished bird cage, author themed bookends, a gold floral candelabra, and a number of other one of a kind decor. I’ll show you how to turn any photo into a watercolor painting! (You’ll have to watch the video to find out what the three B’s.) Hope you get lots of inspiration!

Waterlogue app:
I am so sorry. I thought it was free; however, there is a one-time purchase fee of $2.99.

I AM SO SORRY! I thought the Waterlogue app was free; I don’t remember paying for it. However, it costs $3.99 for a one-time purchase fee. AND, it is available only on Apple products. If you are an Android user, the Artsy app which has a free version also has a watercolor effect option. Another app, Ollie, also has a watercolor feature; it costs $1.99 for a one-time purchase fee. Again, I am so sorry. I didn’t do my homework this week!
I’m glad it costs money! My first thought when it was free was that nothing is free- they are probably farming information, particularly with access to your photos. But if they are charging- chances are they are more legit.
At any rate, it looks like a great app !
All is forgiven ♥️😊👍
Was just coming here to tell you it's not free. In fact, the only version i could find for Android was $3.99.
My android has a watercolor filter in the photo app - maybe not quite as nice, but fun to play with!
FYI, I just checked my Apple App Store and this app is $3.99.
Do you sleep? Your brain must never rest with so many different ideas running through it 🤣. Your creativity amazes us
She must have garages full of stuff .... just in case

The book with the greenery growing out it so clever and beautiful
The book with the flowers would make an adorable dining room table decor for a ladies luncheon
The Frankenstein bookshelf was such a clever and unexpected way to repurpose two items!
Or maybe 4 b's? Blooms, boards, books, birds. Such creative ideas!
*Sherry, I have L🤍VED birds, 🐦 flowers (blooms)💐and books 📚 since I was a small child. I had a favorite tree growing up with the perfect "Y" in the branches. You could sit in the "Y" with a leg slung over each side and read for HOURS. It was really high up, so if I was quiet 🤫 and no one looked up, nobody knew I was there. I sat up there in my perch and surveyed the neighborhood and the open fields that had been farm land (it was a new housing development) and soaked in the breeze, the lilting sounds of birds 🕊as they sang and chirped - and simply enjoyed nature all around me - with the wildflowers growing in the field near the tree. Summers were magical and serene. If my Mom hadn't seen me for awhile on a sunny summer day, she knew I could be found in my "reading tree" and sent one of my siblings to fetch me for lunch or dinner. 😊*
What a beautiful memory you shared of this tree from your childhood. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. I had a tree too right next to my front door and in the Spring I would climb up it to visit with the birds that would build their nests up there. I was an adult though and often my husband would come outside, look up and see me there, shake his head and go back in. He left me alone while I communed with nature. I was in my happy place. 😊
What a great memory! I, too, had a reading tree in the woods behind my childhood home! I feel so sorry for this generation’s children who mostly don’t know what it is like to roam the woods and discover the beauty and wonder of nature without distractions from technology. For reference, I am 60 years old. Those magical memories are some of my best!!
Books, botanicals, and birds!
I am inspired by all these creative videos and create many decors by myself. I collected them and threw away yesterday. After all these fun making, the house is filled up with junk.
I LOVED the open book with the flowers!!
Books, birds and butterflies
That is a great guess!
Books, birds and still watching. Beautiful! You are so creative!
My favourite was the book with the flowers coming out in the middle. THANKS FOR ANOTHER LOVELY VIDEO
Another "Home Run" Sherry!! I loved everyone of them!
Loved every project you made especially flowers blooming from the book. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much! The blooming book was my favorite project this week, too.😊
Birds, butterflies, and books. Those seem to be your three favorite B’s!
My favorite is the book with the flowers coming out of it.
I am adding the 3C’s. Cute. Clever. Creative !!! You never disappoint 😊. Happy Spring Sherry🌷🌺💐🌸🕊️🦜📕📘📙
My favorite color is green, so I’m not complaining! Honestly, the two books that were nailed together in the final project had such lovely blue covers that I didn’t really think they needed to be painted.
So happy to see more birds, books, and blossoms! Happy Spring friend!
All of your projects are lovely, but the "Frankenstein" hanging bookshelf with the beautiful carved frame just touches my heart. I love all your inspired, and inspiring projects! 💚💚💚
Oh thank you!😊
Books and birds are 2 of the “b’s”. Waiting to discover the 3rd!!
Sherry, your energy and creativity astound me. These projects are too adorable. Can't pick a favorite.
These were some great fresh ideas…my favorite was the book with the flowers in the middle!
I love the bookends but as a bookworm, they take up space for more books! 😆😆😆
A long time ago, when a friend & I were in grade school, my crayons had a color called "sea green". We both disliked it & called it "seasick green".
Ironically, I really like it now.
I think I know that crayon color! I hated green when I was little. I never wanted the green place marker in board games. But, like you, now I love green-including sea green!
I believe homes should reflect the people who live in them....and your home does that...❤
Oh, thank you, Nancy! What a lovely compliment!😊
I really like all of the projects today. The last one I absolutely loved the books blue and thought it looked better that way, but realize it’s a personal preference. I had forgotten the candle trick with melting the flowers into it and can’t wait to try that!
My guess was books, birds, and blooms...I was close!
Sheri, the 3B’S are Birds, Blooms and Books. I always enjoy your video’s so much, I hate for them to end. I wish you could do one everyday. That’s how much I enjoy them. I hope you have a beautiful week.
If you love gardening , you are naturally inclined to this
I love the flowers growing out of the book!
Pure genius!! 💐
Beyond beautiful, brilliant, bonafide ideas!! That's the three B's!
The blooming book is soo CUTE and creative!!!
Books,birds and blooms lol
WOW, WOW, and WOW!! You have the greatest imagination! All of these "B"s were so creative! Flowers coming out of a book!!! 😮 One of your best videos so far!!
Ok! That Tulip candle stand is awesome❤. Thanks for all the creativity!!!
These are my favorite B's Blossoms, Birds and Books and bountiful inspirations which you always provide!!! Thanks for all these wonderful ideas!!!
I LOVE what you come up with. That bird bath candle stand with birds was so adorable!! The bird coming out of the oval frame was so cute also. That book did look like it was growing flowers!
I'm not keen on purple and sometimes yellow and brown irritate and annoy me.
Some lovely ideas Shelley.
Thank you for sharing.
Every blessing!
Also annoyed by some browns. Annoyed is exactly the right word!
I don't care for purple either.
I dislike lavender furnishings, bedding, walls, drapery and clothes. But I do like lavender flowers.
I really loved how many candle stands you used. My favorite project was the white and lavender flower candle stand that you said you would use as a soap dish. I got to thinking how nice yours would look in a bathroom. Edgar Allen Poe is my favorite author so the book ends drew my interest. Thank you Sherry for all your hard work and just you being you . Mondays wouldn’t be the same without you. Blessings
Thank you so much, GG! I have a bathroom makeover coming, so I may have to make a unique soap dish. As an English teacher, I loved teaching Poe; the kids always liked his creepy stories! Just thinking about it is making me want to read some of his stories again.
I was so enamored by your crafts that I totally forgot about the 3 B’s. You astound me! I enjoyed seeing all of these so much, I’m about to watch this again. Thank you for sharing dear Queen of Decordom.👑
My guess would be Birds, books and butterflies, buttons, blooms, baskets, but can't forget bows you are the queen of the b......things. lol love everything you always do just something about bird cages I love as well !
Love this week's video. My favorite was the break out bird picture frame. I can't wait to create one!
Yay! Thank you! Try to find a thin resin bird to use, or you might even try breaking a ceramic one.
Bows, butterflies and birds was my guess before watching the video! Oh well, I got one out of three! Fun video!
The picture with the bird popping out is a really cute idea! I really like the painted candle stand with the 2 birds clipped on and the eggs. AND the birdcage project was pretty. They were all great projects - good job, Sherri!
You are my favorite crafter on RUclips! You explain everything so well, I appreciate how well you take your time and your ideas are amazing. Keep up the videos! Thank you 🙏
Wow, thank you! You are so very kind! 😊
Always feel more energy an talent after spending time with you...blessed to have you as a friend❤❤❤❤❤ in the craft room😊
Thank you so much, Barbara! What a lovely thing to say! 😊
Yeah, I knew it but didn’t write it down. My words are “ creative genius”. Every project was so beautiful but the birdcage ended up being my favorite. The bird bursting forth was just wonderful. You never disappoint, never. 😊❤
Your imagination is endless!!! I watch in awe every week!!!
I love the 2 candle holders that you put together. And also the box turned into a shelf
Thank you, Carolyn! 😊
Books📚 birds🕊️ and blooms 💐. Gorgeous every single one! 😍😍😍
The book ends are amazing!
I look forward to Monday to watch your creative videos. Todays video did not disappoint. The 3 B's Birds, Books and Blooms was a cute way of starting your video.😊
My favorite was the frame shadowbox. 3 B's has to be birds, books......equals "brilliant"! 😊 Thanks for sharing.
Oh my gosh, watching you is so much fun. I have been looking for small birds, but they seem to be a little too expensive even at the thrift stores. I went to a yard sale a few weeks ago and was able to buy a box of 13 assorted small birds ranging in price from 25 cents to a dollar. I was so thrilled ! I have gotten 2 nice bird cages and lots of candle stands, so I will have so much fun once we move. Thanks for the lovely ideas you shared with us today. They were all winners! 😊
You are so welcome! I am so glad you found some reasonably priced birds. I sometimes buy thrift store wreaths and floral arrangements because I really like the bird in it! 😜
I was really blown away by these crafts. I could not pick one I loved best.Amazing job . Xx
I absolutely love the book and growing flowers. All these projects were wonderful!😊
Books, birds, butterfly,
The Frankenstien bookshelf "monster" was my favorite, the rustic crate and more elegant frame speak to me.
I absolutely love the gold candlestick made from the tulip candlestick! It is absolutely gorgeous and looks very vintage and elegant. ❤
🐦 🦋⚘️ birds, butterflies, and botanicals! 📚 too I guess lol
Loved all the thrifts. So easy, anyone can do them. Thank you!❤
Love the 3D bird 🐦 and frame
I don't know how you continue being so darn creative.😊 You are amazing!❤
Your channel is such a treasure to watch. You really have beautiful ideas. Thank you for sharing with me.
Oh my, I LOVE all of these! It amazes me how everything you touch ends up looking high end & sooo pretty!
I’m guessing birds, books & botanicals. You have outdone yourself, Sherry! All of your projects were so very creative. My favorite? The “blooming” book! Definitely going to make that one!
I love birdcages, the more unique the better but often I can’t figure out the best way to decorate them that isn’t the usual. and I adore Teal, so hard to get that color.
I think most people do love teal, and I don’t understand why I don’t. You can put anything you like in a birdcage (that will fit through the door). I have a birdcage filled with old player piano music rolls.
I will DEFINITELY be using the Waterlogue app…my mind is racing with so many ideas!!!
Birds, books, blooms? Love every one of these projects! Especially the bookends. I have a thing for bookends! 😉 You are so creative!
I really liked the transformation of the cast iron white bird bath. I didn't get blossom; I thot the 3 B's were birds, books, and blue!
Books, blooms,birds!
The plastic frame with rose,is so beautiful!!!
Thank you, Gloria! 😊
Birds. Books. Botany. And BEAUTIFUL FOR GOOD MEASURE
I just love watching your channel. You can make something trashing to something beautiful.
Birds,books,and blooms
Blossoms, always, always birds, and books 😁
Ding, ding, ding! A+
I really don't care for the " watercolor" look.doesnt look at all like watercolor to me.
Again loved everything. I bet you were a Fantastick teacher.
Oh, thank you, Gayle! I sure tried to be a good teacher. (There is a lot about teaching that I don’t miss, but I do miss the kids!)
Oh my gosh Sherri. There's a lot of things. I wanted to buy but You went so quick. I would love you if you'll make some more of those water pictures they were gorgeous
Books, birds and boxes???? Really nice video - AGAIN!!!!
Books, birds and baskets! Just guessing!😂 Okay, no baskets! It is spring so the blossoms make my heart happy! I actually have the pieces to make my version of almost everything you made in this video! I cannot wait to make them!!
Love love the blue candle stand. My hated color is mustard yellow. Bleurgh!
Bird,book, bush Sherry I’m a fan, so you are my favorite ❤
the Waterlogue app is a great idea for junk journaling!
I’ve loved the Waterlogue app for a long time. It’s so fun. I also think you might be crafting in your jammies and robe. We are kindred spirits!
I love every color. Baby poop green is at the bottom of the list, though. I also gravitate towards certain colors in my home.
I absolutely LOVED the book with daisies growing out of it I’ve never seen anything like it before and it was truly lovely. I love all of your videos. You’re so creative and everything is always so beautiful.
Books, blooms, and birds
I love the tulip candle stand!😊I’m not crazy about yellow in my 🏠
My guess is Birds, Books and Brass (?). It was so fun to watch you create these fun projects. I loved the bookends and the blooming book!
I just found your channel in my recommended and am thrilled!!! Your creativity is amazing and I will be incorporating your ideas into the remodel of my home! Perfect timing for me!
How beautifully timely it was for me to find your RUclips channel. I have 3 bird cages and had so many ideas of creative ways to transform them but have been so overwhelmed with a recent move that I completely forgot my plans for them. I LOVE how you transformed your birdcage and am so blessed to have all the materials to create a similar one for myself.
Thank you and God Bless you for all your inspiration.
I am so glad that you found my channel and I was able to share some ideas with you! (Moving is exhausting and overwhelming!)
Teal is my absolute favorite color lol
Birds, Blooms and Books😁❤
Birdcage is my favorite ❤😊
Thank you, Kimella!😊
I loved the book with the flowers coming out of the center!
I think books, birds and burns would also fit. I love the "Frankenstein"-bookshelf.
Thank you, T.T.!😊
Birds, books blossoms!
You outdid yourself (and that is saying something) with this video , all the ideas were excellent! You are so creative and talented! Thanks for these ideas.
Thank you so much! Ruth, you are so sweet! 😊
TYFS, Sherrie!!! Always fun to see what your latest decorating ideas are!!! ❤😊
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting, Barb! I really appreciate it!
