Love all of them!! However, that little stool was the winner!!❤
So cute!
Ah! That stool... I wasn't all in until the final coffee stain to distressed parts. Stunning finish! I'm such a fan of your relaxed presentation.
Oh thank you!
love love love..i have an old stool like this lid and everything..i love giving an aged or antique look to everything..even my home-made cards..love the coffee idea..tfs..huggzz
Glad you enjoyed ❤️
I painted, added handles & casters & use them for under bed storage. Works well. Love the mirror idea as I need a specific size/style mirror for a wall but have been unable to find it. You've made my search much easier. Thanks!
Great idea!
Loved the dresser drawer you turned into a little bookcase!
Yay, thank you!
Book shelves always have my heart.
Me too
That stool is beautiful.
Thanks 😊
All three are my favorites!! Your side-of-the-road finds are simply the best.
Yes they are!
Love the stool makeover Deidre. Much love from Texas ♥️🤠
Thanks so much
A new shop opened in our town some new stuff and some ladies craft- I mentioned your channel,and the lady lit up and said she watches you too,she told me- you must be a crafter,lol was a fun conversation
No way how cool is that!! Love sharing my crafting techniques ❤️
I loved the upcycled stool! Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
Love them all can’t choose just one!!!❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed
I just LUV that storage stool! Great look & usage on countertop 👍
I love it!
Those were some great ideas. Loved the window/ mirror effect. The window was so cool looking n love the style of it too.
Thanks for sharing how to make a mirror.
♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟
You are so welcome!
Loved all! Enjoy watching your videos.....it's really inspired me!
I'm so glad!
You must have many thoughts even in your sleep!! I really am not good at having visions of how to make something from just looking at it! You are amazing! Love your videos
Glad your enjoying
All three are great but the shelf is my fav.
Glad you enjoyed
Love all you upcycle dyis❤❤
Thanks 😊
Wish we had finds like that, here in Scotland.
Glad you enjoyed
Very cool pieces. I’m think the drawer turned shelves was my favorite.😊
I think so too!
I’m so jealous of all your new tools!im going to go shopping!
Have fun!
Love 💕 all three
Great job on the drawer :D you could stash alot in that for sure, cook books, all your tea bags
Definitely!
Great finds. I like the stool the most but all are great!
Mine too!
I love the window mirror❤
Thanks
I like them all but I love the little stool!!
Glad you enjoyed
I enjoyed this video. I think the shelf is great.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love these upcycles, very clever. TFS
Thanks so much!
Liked the drawer.
Thanks 😊
Loved all 3 projects!
Glad you enjoyed
All your projects were great. The stool was my favorite. I too have been buying Ryobi cordless power tools. My next purchase will be the circular saw. Which size did you get. The guys say that the circular saw is somewhat dangerous as it can kick back. I’m looking at the 5 1/2 inch one as I don’t plan on building a house with it!! I know the cordless saw is not quite as powerful as the corded ones therefore they are a little safer. Just wondering what size you bought. Thank you for sharing all you ideas.
Love the projects Deidre! So clever!
Thanks so much!
It's hard to pick a favorite, they're all great. But that window!!! Love that idea. It turned out perfectly.
Thanks so much! 😊
Loved everyone of your projects!!
Thanks 😊
YOU ARE AWESOME. I actually liked them all. Hard to pick!
Yay! Thank you!
All the projects are amazing. I thought you'd upholster the seat with new fabric. But, the stained wood was perfect. I loved that transformation.
Thanks so much!
I'm always getting messages for things people want to get rid of. I've gotten some great stuff that way and also from the curb 😅😂 Great rescues! ❤
Love that!
I love them all but my favourite was the little stool
Thanks 😊
These roadside up cycled DIY’s are WONDERFUL ❣️ love them all but if I have to pic a fave I’d say the lil stool.
Thank you! 😊
Deidre, these upcycle projects are all absolutely stunning!! Love the simplicity of them. TFS 🙏.
Thanks so much 😊
Love the drawer idea!! We have a "dead" dresser on the front porch with drawers that are begging to become little shelves! 😊👍
Glad to inspire
Love them all!!
Thanks 😊
Loved them all
Thanks 😊
I'm not a woodworking expert, but I do my share of woodworking, and I'd have bought the little shelf clips like used on many bookcases and kitchen cabinets, drilled just far enough for the pegs to be inserted. Put 2 on each side and place the shelf on top. That way, if you want to switch it up at some point, you can add more peg holes, not to mention it makes the shelf sturdier. Just a thought.
That's a great idea!
Великолепно! ❤❤❤
Thanks 😊
Drawer turned out cute fyi.. you could also make the shelves narrower to have your trim piece flush with the drawer.
Yes that trim was an after thought
So hard to pick a favorite but I’m totally inspired by the window/mirror project. My husband has an old window just sitting in his wood shop that would be perfect for this! Thank you for the inspiration!😊
Excellent
Diedra! Oh my this video is wonderful.❤ I never thought about using the step stool as a riser!! The window/mirror is beautiful. Thank you for sharing. ❤❤❤
You are so welcome!
That drawer was such an awesome find Deidre and I love what you did with it. I also love the little stool with the storage in. Great idea for candle storage. You always have awesome ideas. I’ve never heard of that mirror stuff, great idea making a mirror out if the window though. I’m not a person who likes making stuff look old although I always like whatever all the crafters do to make their projects like that. I just won’t do it myself. I would however love to use that mirror spray on a window and make it look like a mirror. TFS and for the inspiration I get from your videos. I’ve tried so hard to like what everyone does now with their painted items but even back years ago when the distressing and crackle affect was in I hated it. I could never get my head around putting all that effort into painting something only to distress it or scrape the paint off lol. Old habits die hard I guess cos I still feel the same all those years later. I love all the ideas though I just do them my way, which is what crafting is all about.
Thanks for watching! Glad your enjoying
Great video.
My faves were the stool and mirror.
More videos like this one from you, PLEASE!!!
You have inspired me to go through my hoard of a stash of roadside finds and get creative.
Love watching your channel.
I'm so glad!

I loved them all❤❤❤
Thanks 😊
I loved that drawer upcycle the best, but all of them were beautiful. You have such great ideas.
Thank you so much!
I liked them all, but I loved the stool you transformed 😊
Thanks 😊
So cool . . . You always have the best ideas. The little stool was definitely my favourite today.
Awesome! Thank you!
I have that same stool. I was going to put new fabric on it, now I'm not sure! ❤
Thanks for watching
I love the transformation of the foot stool and the shelf you made! Great job!!!!
I love the mirror effect. I loved the two smaller ones and saw an opportunity to add pictures there or some great graphics, seeing as there’s a mirror there already. It would add more interest to the whole piece. I agree cordless tools are the way to go but are sometimes too expensive.
Thanks so much! 😊
Love your upcycles as usual! If pressed I’d say the drawer was my favorite. Keeping my eyes peeled for a lonely drawer now! Do you have a link to the video where you made the absolutely awesome doorknob hanger that is visible in the last shot of the mirror? I’ve tried to unsuccessfully to find it but I know I’ve seen it before! I have a collection of doorknobs begging to turn into something similar! Thank you!!
Shoot I’m not sure what video that was in I’ll try and find it
Such beautiful upcycled projects ♥️
Thanks 😊
Love it all I always do
Thanks 😊
Nice on the window! I wonder how that mirror paint would do in say.. repairing an old mirror that has the actual look you were achieving? Hmm...?
Not sure have not tried that
I love the battery tools mydamnself. And I'm a woodworker
Love them!!!
Worth it!!!
Thanks 😊
Love all 3😍
Thanks for watching ! Glad you enjoyed
Hon, that's not a Skill saw, it's a Circular saw. 😉 I have the Ryobi Airstrike brad nailer also. It was a bit of a learning curve for me, figuring out where those brads were going to end up, so how to align it. I had several go where I didn't want them to at first. 😁 I have an old drawer that I got for $3 from Habit Restore, but had no idea what to do with it. Love what you did with yours. I love all of these projects, don't really have a favorite. Thank you!
lol! I’m not sure why but we call them a skillsaw but yes it’s a circular saw. 🇨🇦 thing I guess
Oh right! I forget you're in Canada so you guys sometimes have different names for things than we do here in the U.S. Sorry. It does the job. That's the important part. 😁@@OurUpcycledLife
I don’t mean this to sound rude or anything like that but when you say side of the road does that mean that it was going to be picked up by trash? Any time you say side of the road I imagine you are just walking by and suddenly there these marvelous pieces 😂 I love your creations and your channel you truly have a talent!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sometimes people will put good stuff they don’t want anymore at side of road hoping someone will pick up and recycle.
Can you please do a video on how to use the jigsaw!!
Thank you for the video but it had me wondering. If anyones tried it, does the vinegar and water trick work with other spray paints for effect making or does it react badly?
No it doesn’t work well
@@OurUpcycledLife thanks for answering
Very nice but I like the old color love ur a accent
😊 thank you
Love your vision. Envy your imagination. Would love to see you do some non toxic crafts. Just about every product comes in a less toxic form. Most spray paint I see is vile. Respirators do not really help the yard or skin. thanks though for the ideas!!
