It's so funny how we all like different things, right?! I really didn't like the cobalt blue anymore (it looked better in the video than it did in real life), and I couldn't justify buying a new one when this one worked perfectly. At the end of the day I didn't NEED to paint it, but just wanted to so it matched my style a bit better

@@sallyschilling1559 that’s awesome! Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks for being here!! I can't wait either :)

Washing soda is similar to baking soda, just a bit different. Here's a link: amzn.to/4izQzUt

@ thanks

Thank you so much!

I haven't tried it on paint, but it definitely should work.

Yes 100% with extra room!

I'm not sure what the question is exactly, but you can use any herbs and spices you want :)

@@KeefeisAwesome I do a 1:1 ratio of flour to water. It depends on how much starter you have to begin with as to how much you add in.

It should be about a 1:1 ratio by weight of flour and water, but I typically just go by consistency, which is like a thick pancake batter.

Thank you! Overall it's been pretty good. I will say that I should've skipped painting the knobs or at least did a better job sealing those up, as well as the plate on the bottom where the bowl fits. I've had some wear on the edges, but that's honestly because I have to keep it in a cupboard due to the lack of counter space I have and have knocked it and scarped it several times. But like I said, overall I'm happy and I'm glad I did it :)

@@thesimplehomeplace Awesome. You've inspired me. My KitchenAid is BLACK and just looks too heavy.... I love the color you picked! thanks for sharing!

@@heatherh3099 That's awesome, thank you! Have fun making yours over :)

I haven't tried it yet, but would like to try sometime soon! I just use a beeswax wrap to wrap my homemade bread before adding it to the bag right now :)

Love it :)

I really appreciate the feedback! You're totally right on the cost and the title being misleading. I guess when I made this I already had the stain and poly, making it under $30 for the other materials. As for the dowel, when I measure my dowel it is 1.25" and fits perfectly.

@ interesting. Mine did not, which makes sense. It’s an easy fix though.

I appreciate it, thank you!

Of course! I'm glad you found the video helpful :)

I've used this on gray grout and have no issues with the peroxide bleaching it in any way. But if you're worried about it, I'd test it out in an inconspicuous area first.

Of course! I'm so glad you found it helpful :)

You're welcome! I'm glad they were helpful :)

@@brendasanford6133 it depends on how often you use it. I use mine 1-2 times a week and it’s lasted me over a year and I’m still not out!

Yeah the dowels just slide through the clamps. If you're using the ladder purely for decoration and not getting blankets off very often, then I haven't had any issues. The dowels do slide easily when you're moving the ladder and occasionally when you take blankets off. This is really a design for someone to make if they don't have many (or any) power tools. Other blanket ladders that have the rungs secured into the sides are sturdier, especially if you use it a lot.

I haven't done that yet, but I'd like to try it sometime in the near future!

Of course! It was wonderful working with you and we are loving the knife set!

Here's the video and blog post to make them more sticky! ua-cam.com/users/shorts3dVCAU_dyrk thesimplehomeplace.com/how-to-make-reusable-beeswax-food-wraps/

So yes, there was still some of the original patina left, which I'm not sure you'd be able to completely get rid of unless you buffed it with some kind of buffing machine or continued the process of soaking in vinegar, which could soften or weaken the brass. I was okay with having some patina left over, but it's totally a preference. My suggestion would be to use the vinegar soak method because I found that to be most effective compared to the other methods shown in the video if you want to get it as close to original as possible. Hope that helps!

You can use this by itself for a washing cycle, but you can also use a rinse aid as well, totally up to you.

Thank you so much! I'm so glad my video was helpful and I'm excited for you to get those lamps up and running again :)

For this specific one, no, but I much prefer using pine rosin. Here's the video for that and my blog post for the full instructions :) ua-cam.com/users/shorts3dVCAU_dyrk thesimplehomeplace.com/how-to-make-reusable-beeswax-food-wraps/

I didn't have a bucket and there were a lot of towels.

I'm so glad it was helpful!

@@Daniel_S20 I used Behr paint and primer that I got at Home Depot 😊

Thank you! It's Behr paint and prime. It definitely takes a step away from the whole process!

Thank you! And you're not the only one. I thought about it for YEARS before doing it and it made a huge difference!

I'm definitely not an expert, but real wood furniture and cabinets typically have tongue and groove joints. Now with cabinet doors it would be hard to tell if it was one solid piece. You can also look at the wood grain. If the sides of the cabinet door have a different grain or look completely different, then it's probably laminate. I will say that if you were interested in painting your cabinets as opposed to staining them, then you can use the BIN shellac primer on both plastic/laminate surfaces, as well as real wood surfaces.I hope that helps.

@@zahrahtehseen4287 I just used wood filler 😊

@@ncarter34 *waste*

Whatever. I stand by what I said. You wasted my time.

Wow, that's crazy! I've done a few lamps, but none that have had a tiny bottom like that. I'm glad you were able to find someone to fix it though!

I wish I could be more helpful, but I haven't had that issues so I'm not really sure. One thing that may help is using a smaller needle.

The makings of the dresser are wood and particle board, while the outside is laminate/faux wood.

Thank you so much! I'm glad this was helpful for you :)
