      Thank you very much! Because I sold my DIY projects in a booth for many years, I always feel like the back should be finished, too!

    You are like the queen of thrift flips. I love all of your ideas and some of them are such simple, easy ways to just completely change an item, but it's having the creativity to see beyond what's there and really create something brand new. Thanks for helping us save money and make our homes beautiful. God bless you!

    I think the lamp was the most dramatic transformation. I find it amazing that a combination of budget friendly supplies can yield such a change. I also enjoyed the wood bowl with the dried pressed blooms. I am a sucker for dried flowers.

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  Год назад +1

      Oh, thank you so much, Elizabeth! When I bought that lamp, Goodwill had a beige ginger jar type lamp for sale. I liked the ginger jar shape, but they wanted $25 for that lamp and only $3 for the polka dot one that I bought! 😜

    Hi Sherry. I absolutely love blue and white things. The make over of the lamp is stunning! It is perfect to go with my blue and white pieces. Now for me to go thrifting for a lamp. Love every one of the other projects too! So many great ideas for unique decor! I will be hitting the local thrift stores tomorrow.

    It's impossible to pick a favorite --they are all so beautiful! From your book collection, I'd guess you were an English professor but from your obviously artistic talents, you must have been an artist. Your insight and vision are absolute gifts.

  • @gizmo7877
    @gizmo7877 Год назад

    You’re a Genius! As I watch each project, I sit here and just shake my head back and forth in amazement at your boundless imagination! It’s not crafting, IT’S ART, that should be in a gallery. I loved, loved the wooden hanger! Working with material to cover the luggage piece was amazing to create texture and laborious as well. As it opens from the top, I thought the carrying handle should have been placed on the top for balance and stabilization for the contents. I’m walking away with so many ideas thanks to your talents.

  • @kristymh823
    @kristymh823 Год назад

  • @laurieowen8696
    @laurieowen8696 Год назад +2

    Lovely as always. I liked the simplicity and uniqueness of the butterfly branch, but loved the rehab on the metal case. That got my wheels turning. I have a few metal cases to work with. I love how the fabric adds dimension and softens it, and I'm visualizing the perfect imagery on mine. Thank you for the inspiration .❤

  • @pamlitz9605
    @pamlitz9605 Год назад

    I don’t ever seem to find good thrift items but it’s probably my lack of imagination.

    @dorisandujar8277 Год назад +2

    I love the frame with the branch and faux flowers petals. The branch with the wood butterflies is another one I love. Lately I've been on my landlords property picking up so many things in nature. I've got alot of birch bark and branches, a bag full of pine cones and flat rocks to decopauge on. I'm really getting into this natural way of crafting. I get so much inspiration from watching you and the projects you do help me to see things differently. Thank you 4 sharing.

    • @CanterburyCottage
      @CanterburyCottage  Год назад

      You are so welcome! You are so lucky to have birch bark!!! We had a birch tree but had to have it removed. It started dying after some strong winds split it down the middle! They are not a very sturdy tree but so pretty!

    The inside of your mind must be a magical and busy place! The lamp is outstanding, but if I had to pick just one, I’d go with the wooden bowl with the flowers.

  • @pamelataylor3537
    @pamelataylor3537 Год назад +2

    Hi Sherri, the lamp is my favourite too, it now looks gorgeous with the blue and white napkins, instead of those unfortunate polka dots lol. I also love everything else that you did too. The wooden bowl with the flowers in the middle is beautiful. I also love the frame with the stick flowers and little blue bird on the bottom. I could go on about every project, but I won’t I think you get that I love each of them. It’s made me think that I will look at some items differently now, that’s for sure. I do know that lately when I’ve been out walking round I see sticks that have fallen off trees and a few of them I’ve been going to pick up but I couldn’t bend over to get them and they were a bit big to put in or on my wheely walker, the footpaths are really bumpy and they would have kept falling off. God Bless you and your family and please enjoy your week.
