Thank you for the video. I have been buying jewelry at thrift stores and I’m glad I saw your video. I had no idea about the Elmer’s glue and painting the cone. I can’t wait to begin making my vintage Christmas trees.
@@jacquelinecreativelifestyl3393 wonderful! You will love this craft!
Hey miss mimi, you have been working hard. Great job. Your home is beautiful & you are beautiful inside & out. Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a JOYFUL weekend! ❤😊❤
We have blue and white kitchen. Looks beautiful. Love the shelves. Curious how you hung them without showing any brackets. Also, I noticed your John MacArthur commentary set. Great treasure to have. Thanks for sharing
The shelves are actually floating shelves. The contractor who remodeled our kitchen attached them to the wall with a bracket that only attaches on the back side of the shelves! Yes I have many books by John MacArthur. Been following his expository preaching since 1982. I am a supporter of his Grace To You Ministry. Learned so much over the years. Thank you for sharing!
beautiful
Very beautiful 😍
What other liquid can you use with the dish detergent? Happy new year 2025 🎉❤
I would use only water. It can be harmful to mix other liquids for example bleach with dish soaps. The mixing causes strong toxic fumes.
@mimitodd8781 thank you for the great advice my friend 🌹
Awesome video my sweet friend and I hope I can make my apartment look beautiful as you make your home ❤
Wow, very beautiful my sweet friend and can you use different plates?❤
Yes I can.
Very beautiful ❤
Beautiful and I can't wait to make these for Christmas this year and I love all the crafts you make ❤
What kind of tea would you drink with it?
Green tea with a slice of orange
@mimitodd8781 sounds delicious 😋
Sounds yummy 😋 and can you use blueberry instead of cranberry?
@@daisyking5656 not sure about that Daisy. Interesting combo.🤔
@mimitodd8781 maybe blueberry, blackberries and strawberries, does that sound yummy 😋, it does to me
aww so adorable 😍
Very beautiful ❤
Wow what a difference the wreath makes on your mirror! Just beautiful!
Thanks! I love it!
Your winter spruce-up challenge has motivated me to get back on the purge list i created last summer. Your drawers are all so well organized, you must really enjoy opening them now! That is such a nice feeling. ♥ I have the kitchen, attic, garage and then I'm done with it. So your challenge has motivated me to get going on the kitchen purge and drawer cleaning next weekend.😃
@@betterlivingonabudget awww that is wonderful! Makes me happy to hear I motivated someone! Thanks for sharing! This week it’s book shelves and pantry shelves for me! Have a blessed week!😊
I love this challenge! I was just thinking about doing my 'spring' cleaning early while it's nice and cool and i have the house opened up.
I am already loving how cleaned my house is getting! It’s too cold 🥶 in my area to be outside anyway! Getting it done!
Love the dog eating his chicken man in the background LOL
Where did you find the shells?
@@tiajewels2820 I live near the ocean. Some from walking the beach in the Outer Banks and others from beach shell shops.
How many inches between edging lifts and what is final diameter of bowl?
This particular basket was a gift and I don’t have it to measure. But one similar to that is 5 inch base and the top finished off at 11 inches across. The wider your bottom the wider your top will be. I measured an inch from the rim of the basket to the top of the loop and then pinned in place. Hope this helps.
Where do you find your cotton clothes rope?
I purchase the cotton rope from Walmart over in the hardware section of the store.
So what use is the rope bowl! I hate dust collectors and it needs to have a use. Please share how we can use them! 8:29
I use them to hold cloth napkins, dish and wash cloths, gift baskets to hold presents, storage for my hair clips, plants holders, and they are very useful for storage on shelves.

Very nice wreath, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !
Thank you!😊
Hi mimi. I think this wreath looks perfect. Thanks for sharing it. Your home is gorgeous. You are a very talented, special lady. Much love ♥️👍♥️
@@judyfinnegan6225 awwwww thank you my friend! ♥️😊♥️
Love it!
@@chastity1219 thank you!😊
Did you separate the napkins depending on how many layers? when I decoupage I separate the napkin layers. I have never did a bowl so unsure.
Yes, I separate all the layers down to one. Some napkins have two and some have three. Bring it down to the top layer.
So good. Video could have been way longer. I didn't want it to end. Lol. New sub
Awwwwww thank you! I try to be mindful of the length of my videos. Don’t want to waste anyone’s time. But will work on that in the future!😊 Welcome to my community! So happy you found me.
I am with you! I LOVE to organize! It is snowing like crazy here! First snow we have had in 3 years! So beautiful and quiet. Are you supposed to get any?
Awwwww I am happy for you! I wish we would get snow but I am right on the line and will probably get rain.🙁. It is 27 right now but by the time the participation gets here the temps rise and it turns to rain. I keep hoping! The last snow we had was in 2018. Enjoy the snow and happy winter spruce up!
Always feels better to get things organized!
It certainly does!😊
Wonderful transformation and spruce up, thanks for sharing, YAH bless !
Awwwwwww thank you Michael! You getting any of that snow and ice your way?
@mimitodd8781 we have snow , but it's warmer the earlier this week
@@mimitodd8781 we have about 4 - 6 inches so far
@ oh that is wonderful! We want snow but it’s probably going to be rain this weekend. Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞!!!
Very pretty
😊 Thank you!
Great idea great way to remember your mom I am gonna do this. Thank you for the idea and share
