That repainted sink took my breath away - it's so stunning!
John loves you!! The sink story is so sweet. I remember when you posted that on IG. How neat you get to use it in one of the cottages.
I absolutely LOVE that whitewashed floor!!!!
The floor and the sink is stunning. Love the cottages.
Ditto!
Same!! The sink is so amazing, and that white washed floor!!😍
That John story with the sink was just so lovely. Humbling to see such an act of love from a man to his wife when he does not share the same feeling towards saving old items. Just heartwarming to hear. Thank-you for sharing that, Mary!
Omg. I can’t believe you sanded that entire floor with the hand sander, painted with a brush, sanded with a block, and put finish coat on with a brush. What a true labor of love!!! The final outcome is beyond perfection. The cottages are blessed!
The story behind the refurbished sink melted my heart! The cottages are looking simply fabulous, Mary! And the hand labor you put into the white flooring, unbelievable! 👏👏👏
Love sink and painted floor. Love all the work you do and for sharing hard work.
The whitewashed floor looks great, Mary. The amount of labor you put into it shows just how much that meant to you. The cottages look great and how sweet of your husband to go back for the sink. I love a bit of old with the new. It definitely makes the cottage cozy and gives it more character.
I love the story you shared about John bringing home that sink for Mother’s Day… precious moments … and now that it is going into one of the cottages there is a wonderful story to share with your guests!
Sincerely, Susan 💕🎶
That precious sink should be in your home! No one else is going to appreciate it like you do. Bless your husband for bringing that home!
The cast iron sink story brought me to tears. What a thoughtful act of love from your husband. It looks so beautiful in the cottage, as do the gorgeous whitewashed floors. Thank you for sharing this journey with us. God bless you and your family!
Hi, Mary. I absolutely love your white flooring! When you started the “sink in the woods” story, I smiled so big because I remember that story! I’m so glad to hear it’s going into one of your cabins! I have learned so much from you, Mary! Thank you for all you do.
Mary, the cottages are beautiful! My favorite part was the sink story that I remember reading 2 years ago & found it so sweet that John loved you so much that he went back & got it. It turned out gorgeous & I’m so glad you’re using it! Blessings to you & John!
Mary, thank you so much for sharing the sink story. My husband has been facing some significant health challenges for some time now...Johns retrieving your sink is something my husband would have done years back. Enjoy your time together!
Oh I love that sink so MUCH! And I love the story behind it more. Thankful for our husbands. May God continue to bless your marriage and family.💞
Oh Mary, how sweet of John to get that exact sink and say Happy Mothers Day! The nite brought tears to my eyes. You are so lucky. Donna xoxo
LOVED this video!!! A beautiful gesture by your husband to get that sink for you!! I absolutely LOVE the sink. Can't wait to see it. Imagine all the people who at one time used the sink. Perhaps a mother bathed her baby in this sink. You guys brought it back and gave it new life!! So many talented individuals, including you and your husband, and father who are working together to create these beautiful cottages. God has blessed these individuals with amazing talent and a gift of construction and building. The hard work you did on the floors is amazing!!! I love the whitewash look!!! My knees wouldn't have survived! Thank you for taking us along on this journey. You inspire me every time I watch one of your videos!!
Mary, it’s those thoughtful acts of love John did with the sink that truly make a marriage. So sweet. Your cottages look beautiful. You are the only influencer that can make me love white. I’m a wood tone and color girl. I love the floors. It would be a dream someday to stay in one of your beautiful and peaceful cabins. A truly labor of love surrounded by the beautiful things God has made for us.
The design of the cottages are so beautiful. Then you have gone so many steps more with your design choices. From ceiling beams to those awesome floors everything is just amazing. Then to customize the outdoor space for the lucky people that get to stay in one of your cottages is so special. You put so much thought in every little touch. You and your family are very special. Love your tutorials.
Awe....John getting that sink for you is something my husband would have done too. It didn't cost him a penny, but the extra effort and thoughtfulness he put into that surprise is priceless! It'll be a fantastic addition to one of the cabins. Also the white flooring is beautiful!!!! You did a great job!!! xo
What a beautiful sentiment to share about what your husband did for you! It proves that love is an action! Great job, John!
Oh, Mary! It brought me to tears to hear what your husband did for you concerning the sink! What a sweet, precious story, and what a labor of love and kindness! I know that must have meant more to you than any Mother's Day gift could have ever meant! I LOVE the way you did those floors! Just beautiful! You are such a dear blessing and inspiration and the best part of every video is your sweet, humble spirit that always shines through. I pray God blesses your new cottage business and sends many guests your way who will make lasting, special memories there. It will be an amazing adventure, and I am so thankful God is letting this longtime dream come true for you. Sending love and hugs your way today, sweet friend. :)
I just love the white washed floor. Its absolutely gorgeous. Tears came to my eyes with the story of John gifting you the sink for mothers day.
You always inspire me Mary thank you amd God bless.
Love the floor and I think it is perfect for that room. Also the story about John and his thoughtfulness about the old sink, brought me to tears. A beautiful way to show love and consideration without saying a word. What a treasure in many ways. I think it looks gorgeous. You are blessed!
The cabins look fabulous and the ceiling beams.......gorgeous. Loving all the light fixtures and everything is just a dream!
Blessings to you and John and all who assist you with the build...........absolutely a dream and one I would never want to wake up from.. 😊❤👍 Perfectly perfect!!!
The floor is gorgeous and the sink is beautiful and that is such a sweet, romantic story. You have a very thoughtful, loving husband. 💗 I’m so happy for you to be able to bring your dream of the cottages to reality - how fun to choose everything and watch it happen! Lovely video as usual. 💗
Mary, I loved everything about this video, especially the part where John went back & “hiked” to get you that sink was, well a real tear jerker for me. It was so precious. It reminded me of my husband, Michael, always doing sweet things for me. He passed away in December 2020.💔 I miss him so much!😢 Anyway, I look forward to all of your videos! God Bless✝️
The white wash floors are perfection Mary. Really enhanced the wood grain. And the sink, could not be happier for you. I remember the story of you finding it while hiking. I share in your joy as do all your followers.
Wow!! Thank you for sharing the process and stories behind the building of these cottages! What a joy it’s been to be able to be apart of hearing your thought process behind what you are doing with them and how special to have a sink that your husband brought from a hike for you!! What a neat Mother’s Day gift! Truly a labor of love!
We’re visiting Holmes County because of you, right now! Hoping to visit many of the places you talk about. Your cottages are so cute and the floors are perfect! I hope to stay in one one day, knowing what labor of love, sweat and happy tears have gone into them. Funny thing our car has broken down in the middle of an area where most people use a horse and buggy, but everyone is so kind and helpful! Love your work Mary. What a refreshing blessing for me to find you on RUclips.
Oh I wish I were visiting, sorry your having troubles with your car..there is alot to be said for horse & buggy.
I also hope to oneday stay in the cottages 😊
Love love love the floor! Your ideas are spectacular-also the sink!! Hope you frame the story behind it and hang it up for all to read. The happiness men I know are those who enjoy serving their wives. 💕
What a great idea!
The old sink is so beautiful!! How sweet of John to go after the sink for you. The thought of him carrying such a heavy sink that fare for you is even more beautiful than the sink itself. The cottages are really coming together. I'm so happy your dream is coming true.
You nearly brought tears to my eyes with your story on your husband bringing home that old sink. The final product was gorgeous perfection!
I remember that sink! It looks absolutely stunning. It is a fantastic addition to the cottage. Your husband must be pleased at the way it looks. The floors look amazing as well. You are very talented Mary.tfs
I really like the floor idea. You’re so creative, Mary! I absolutely loved the redone sink, and what a beautiful story to go along with it. I think you have a great husband and he has a great wife. 🥰
So excited for you and your husband. The white wash floor looks perfect. The sink story touched my heart, so thoughtful of your husband. Sometimes spouses go out and buy flowers for special occasions but when a gift is from the heart...priceless.
Mary your story about your husband bringing you that sink, such a wonderful gesture in his part and showing how much you really mean to him. ❤️❤️
Love all the flooring especially the white wash. Everything is looking beautiful.
LOVE WATCHING THE UPDATES. LOVE THE WHITEWASH FLOORS. WHEN I AM COOKING AND THE SMOKE ALARM GOES OFF, MY HUSBAND CALLS IT THE DINNER ALARM. DINNER IS READY!😀
I loved this video. The cabins are something special …so beautiful and well made. The highlight was that your husband, John , got that old sink for you🥰. The white distressed floors are refreshing and a change from the rest of the cabin, they look good. 😊
Oh Mary! I have rescued 2 claw foot iron tubs and incorporated them into my home. They ALWAYS take guests breath away. Now my husband and I have rescued an iron sink just like what you found and another one even bigger with the drainage sides on it. We plan to use the small one in our bathroom and the large one with the drainage sides will be used as my real life authentic farm sink in my kitchen! I love that you have a heart of rescue and repurpose for things of old. When people walk into my house, it takes them to fond memories of grandparents homes and a simpler time. This puts a smile in my heart!
I love the floors. They reminded me of being at my Grandparents summer cottage and I loved those floors too! I am 70, so I am going back many, many years! You have definitely earned a high place in Heaven after having hand sanded the floors after painting them. I completely agree about the sink. Grandma had the same kind and when I run into them now, oh the memories that come back. Sooooo good and now you will be providing those kinds of memories for the people who come and stay at your cottages. How special is that???? Congratulations on all of your hard work. It is turning out beautifully and I wish you the best.
Ohmygoodness your sink is beautiful!! Your husband is a great guy, what a wonderful Mother's Day gift. Can't wait to see it all finished in the cottage bathroom.
the sink story brought tears to my eyes. Its so beautiful and now its so special.
Mary, it is so nice to see your whole family involved in your cottage project. You seem to have a very serene family. And, no, I couldn’t tell you were upset when you were looking outside, and thank you for giving us all the back stories. The love everyone in your family has for each other comes through! I loved seeing your creative process. Everything is really so lovely, especially the detail of the bedroom floors, the rain gutters, and the sink!
Love the white wash floor, brings me back to our farm when we had to white wash the barn on the inside . It made everything look so clean. I have a little bungalow that I want to make into a little cottage and often thought about doing white wash to our bedroom floors. I was so glad to see you hand sand the floor, I tell my husband that I could hand sand but he always wants to rent sanders lol!! I love to try different projects, and make something old, new again!! Love your videos!! Thank you for the inspiration!!❤️
I absolutely love everything you're doing to the cottages. Love the white wash floor, but that sink just took my breath away! I have always love the story behind it! You're so very blessed to have such an amazing loving husband that cares so much.❤️ I hope one day I am able to visit the cottages.
Oh Mary. You are so blessed beyond measure ! Loved and adored. Kindred spirit with the previous owner of the sink who loved it as much as you. Reusing and refurbishing items sometimes just makes your soul so happy. It's a feeling not many people share. I'm 65 now and interior painting has always been my passion in life,but I'm slowing down. And that hurts my soul. With my natural talent and God's supernatural talent combined I've made many,many homes beautiful. But... I'm not gone yet. I just paint small pieces! May you always find your passions in life Mary.
Mary….your sink story 😭 ….the love John has for you, and you for him is evident in the beauty of how beautiful that sink truly is. 🥰
The story about the sink is my favorite, you are so fortunate to have a husband like John !
I can’t believe how quickly all this has come together, so much planning, decisions and work but you two have what it takes to make it happen 🥰
Blessings
Love the sink, great find. Your husband is a gem.
The story of the sink brings tears to my eyes. How special!
My husband and I watched the video this morning and LOVED everything you've done. So happy for you and John to see your dream come to life! 🤗
I LOVE how the floor turned out! So sweet of John! 💞 What a lot of work, but so much fun I bet!
It's so exciting for me to see how you're creating your cottages. I loved the painted floor! I think it's lovely that the sink you found and John brought home for you is going to have a home in one of the cottages. Great video, Mary!
O YES!!!!! Love that floor!!! ANd anyone that is blessed enough to stay there will knoww they are treading on your loving labors!
I remember the story about the sink. What a thoughtful, loving husband!
Oh my goodness the floor is so beautiful. You have me wanting to paint everything white. Probably one of my favorite videos so far. Have a blessed day Mary
So sweet of a Mother’s Day gift. I love how the sink turned out. The story of how you got it, brought a tear to my eye.
Omg……I love your relationship, thank you for giving us insight into your relationship. You both are very kind, compassionate, and loving individuals. John shows it differently but there is a reason you two fell in love and have all you have to show for it. All couples disagree, that is what makes you two normal.❤️
That “sink” story is the sweetest thing ever❤️❤️
Oh Mary, the floors look wonderful. I especially love the whitewash, you did a fabulous job. Bless you and your beautiful family 🙏🌸
Absolutely LOVE your whitewash floors! I remembered the sink story and thought it was so sweet. How fun that you can use it in one of the cottages! I love the color you used for it too. I’m so excited for you. I can’t wait to see the finished reveal.
I love the white washed floor. What a sweet gesture on John's part. He loves you.
I love that you went with white for the cottages! I think it’s so fitting. I love everything! Those floors and the whitewashed one (so fitting!), the trim work, and that sink!!! 😍😍😍 Everything is so Beautiful! Can’t wait to go stay and hopefully get to see you!
The sink is an absolute treasure to find and bring back to life… so pretty. I love what you did with the floors. You are so creative and these two item just shows how it all paid off. ❤️
So beautiful! It’s exciting seeing these cottages come together. The tan paint was a nice colour, but I agree the white looks so better - it really brings the cottages to life. The interiors are looking beautiful! Those beams in the ceilings are gorgeous. You have done an amazing job on that bedroom floor. You have done a great job choosing all of the finishes.
I’m sure you will have no shortage of guests wanting to stay there.
Only Mary would feel like winning the Miss Universe contest by receiving an old rusted out discarded sink and see the hidden beauty just waiting to be brought out. How sweet that he did that for you! Love how it turned out! Your cabins are looking fabulous! I think your guests are gonna enjoy this for years and years! Thank you for sharing your dreams with us! 🏠🥰🫶🏻💕
John’s romantic gesture brought a tear to my eye. That is just so sweet. I don’t think my hubby would have done that for me 😁. Cottages are looking fabulous Mary. Well done to you and John.
Hey Mary, your cottages are looking beautiful, love the flooring. Really enjoy all your videos, thanks for sharing your knowledge & creativity with us all, you are an inspiration to so many. Feeds my repurposing soul...❤️
I love everything about the cottages. Your differences in design definitely compliment eachother.
Goll-lee your sweetie is a keeper. The thoughtfulness of your Husbands's actions warms my heart! Love the Sink, so glad it was indeed saved. There is a time for Old and a time for New... In everything, there is a purpose! Cathleen
That sink! Your guy wins the kindest gesture award. I laughed when you said you asked if it was your fault and he said yes! I bet he winked to him self. I grew up going to my grandparents house all the time. They had a large kitchen sink with built in drain board. I want one 💗💗💗
Mary.... I love the old sink, and the story of how you got it even more. You husband is very thoughtful and sweet, and he loves you so much. Honestly, I love everything you do in all of your projects, so add the whitewashed floor to the list. Always looking forward to your next video.
Mary, your cottages look beautiful! I dream of redecorating but get overwhelmed and can’t put a look together. I admire your ability to put it all together! I would never be brave enough to put paint on a new floor, but I love it!
I love that sink story. I have a similar one. I am a Christmas enthusiast and asked my husband if he would mind waiting in the car while I investigated a shop in a tourist town we were visiting because I saw they had Christmas ornaments. Inside I found just the angel ornaments I had been looking for but they were more expensive than what I thought I could spend. A few weeks later it was my birthday and my husband gave me a large gift. He had been traveling and drove an hour off of the interstate highway to go back to that town and go into that shop and ask the clerk to help him figure out which angels I had been looking at. Then he bought 20 of them to fill our tree. I was astounded and it still warms my heart almost 20 years later.
I’m all about that sink! What a great guy you got there🤩and the floors turned out beautiful. These cottages are stunning!
Mary, I love how the floors turned out. Your channel is such an inspiration to me. Thank you.
Whoops! I wasn’t finished!
What an act of Love that John did for you with the sink ! I had a tear because that was the kind of thing that my late husband used to do for me !
Cherish him ! God bless you and your husband !!
Bet that was probably the biggest Mother’s Day surprise you have ever received. What a sweet hubby. Tfs cheers
Oh my goodness those cottages are beautiful!!! I absolutely love the white wash floor!!! So much love and time you have put into them! So happy to see your dream come alive!
I do remember your post about the sink! I was touched by it then and as I listened to you read the story today, tears came to my eyes as I thought about John’s love for you to do this thing. ❤️
The sink turned out beautiful and the floors are perfect. I can’t wait to see the final project!
Thank you for sharing your life with us on your channel, Mary.
The sink is absolutely beautiful!! Your husband is awesome for giving you something you really wanted.
I absolutely love the whitewash in the floor!!! When you started I will admit I was not sure. The result is perfect. It was so loving of your husband to bring that sink back for you. God bless him!☺
Oh wow Mary the cottages are coming along,the floor looks amazing,as for the sink i myself found a old Belfast sink.It is really old looks chippy it already had a life,and now its in my garden with pretty flowers.!!!!!!
So beautiful! I love how your creativity flows on this cottage project! ❤
Mary, I just wanted to thank you. Not only your videos are inspiring, they are also very calming. I can only imagine how busy you are with the cottages and the Etsy shop and everything else going on in a Family life - yet you are always very calm and composed; and you manage to convey your projects, your daily life as very simple. And I mean beautifully simple, in the most precious way. It's like a breath of fresh air, every single time I visit. Thank you for this.
Mary thank you so much for taking us on the journey of the new cottages being built. I enjoyed it so much. I love the floor treatment that you did and I can’t wait to see the finished product of the cottages when they’re done. Keep up the good work you’re so inspiring to us.💕💕💕💕💕💕
The floors look fantastic Mary, you did a great job on them. Love how the sink turned out! Repurposing finds are special and hold value that something new can not touch. Happy the sink found a new home to shine in :) Thank you for sharing the cottage updates, love them!
i love what you did on the bedroom floors! The little mouse sander, the 2" brush, the foam knee pad, the tedious and time consuming work that you did amazed me! You put all of your small project tools to work and came out with a jewel! Well done!!! The cottages will be beautiful and cozy! I hope that you and John are the first to stay in one to make sure that they meet all your expectations. Now rest well.
I love it all! The whitwashed floor, the old sink, the new construction too!
Good evening, Mary, the cottages are immaculate and pristine. The white washed floors are gorgeous, you did such a phenomenal job. Everything you create, change and complete is totally amazing. The sweet story about the beautiful sink is extraordinarily surreal and precious. Thank you for sharing your wonderful stories, and most of all thank you for coming into our homes with all your uplifting and inspirational stories. I look forward to all the upcoming videos. Sweet and wonderful blessings to you and your family.
The cottages are beautiful, can’t wait to see them finished!
I’m so happy for you Mary and your family. If anyone is deserving of having their dream come true! you are, one of the hardest working women I know! These cottages are going to be amazing!!! LOVE the painted floor ❣️ TRUE LOVE with the sink story ❤️❤️❤️ The sink brings back so many memories of me and my grandmother’s house and it is absolutely gorgeous, good call Mary!!!
What a beautiful gesture from John, and you deserve nothing less. The finished sink looks gorgeous. And has a beautiful, special memory for you. The floors look very pretty too.
The sink looks spectacular! I’m so glad that you were able to refurbish it and use it. A lovely testament to your relationship with John and legacy for your cottage.
I remember the sink! What a wonderful story and here it is now given a new life and looking just amazing! Thank you for taking us along as you guys work on the cottages! Everything looks fantastic!
I hope that I will be able to stay a week sometime when the cottages are completed. Keep us posted, Mary. Your whitewashed floors look really nice. Love the other flooring stains as well. Beautifully done. The old sink is transformed! Fantastic!
Mary, I remember the story about the sink! It made me cry then and it made me cry again. THIS is love. It sounds like something my husband would do. This is everything 🥰. I love following along with the cottages progress!
I love the floor, love the sink, but most of all I love the story of how John surprised you with the sink. It touched my heart. The cottages are going to be gorgeous!
The whitewashed floor is gorgeous! Love the flooring, tile, counter, and the sink! I would love to come stay in one of your cabins one day!
Oh, Mary, the cottages are so beautiful! I love the white wash floor, it will look so cozy! I can’t wait to see your final vision. I am so happy for you! I truly enjoy your videos, thank you for sharing!!!
WOW, I am speechless. Your vision is beyond anything I imagined those cottages being. you are so talented Mary! thank you for sharing this with us!
Mary, that whitewash floor is just gorgeous! I have a cottage that needs new floors and I think that technique would be just perfect! That sink is so pretty! I think it will be perfect for your bathroom, love all that vintage charm! Thank you so much for the inspiration!!💖
Mary that whitewashed bedroom floor is absolute perfection, I love love love how they turned out!! That sink is going to be amazing and I can’t wait to see it completed and hear it running!!!
