I love your gift of converting things to rustic
It's amazing how you take something old and beat up, and turn it into something beautiful. I love upcycling.
I'm an online reseller and have a booth at an antique mall and I've made hundreds $ at this point from items that I've sourced from our local landfill. I learned last year how much people throw out so many good things! I go at least twice a week and while I don't always find something, it's always a joy when I do! All the things I find are, 1) items that people have set off to the side because they're done with them, but they're still in decent enough condition so someone may want them, or 2) from the metal/electronics recycling section. While it may not be glamorous, between the absolute pure profit that it brings and saving things from going to the landfill, it's quite an enjoyable venture 😁
Thanks so much for sharing! Absolutely love rescuing and recycling things that were destined for garbage!
Just curious how you "save" things from the dump? Our city dump wont let us take a piece of scrap paper away. I'm serious, it could be a hundred dollar bill laying there and if you put it in your pocket you get charged with stealing. Or my yard WOULD be a junk yard. Cant tell you the treasures ive seen at the dump and the scrap yard.😢
"Start the car, start the car!", LOL, that is my favorite saying now. I love looking at roadside trash to see if there is something waiting to come out. I can see why you snagged that rocker. It is stunning.
Haha love it!!
I love watching you do your magic! Incredible. Thank you! It’s only 4AM but my day is starting out great! Thanks again!!
You are so welcome!
And they definitely were incredible!. Anyone can see how much you love your work by the end products. The rocking chair was a gem of a piece, just beautiful.
Thank you so much!
The four pane window was my favorite project in this video but you have so many incredible ideas! It's always so easy to follow your instructions and I love your focus on upcycling.
Thanks so much! 😊
Amo seu trabalho 🇧🇷✌️
I love everything you do but this video showcases the very best of your talents. Looking forward to another great year of your work!
Thank you so much!
YOU ROCK!!!!!!!
Glad you’re enjoying
It’s so good to see you use the original method of distressing. Candle wax and Vaseline etc, with different colours layered up. Fabulous result. 👍🏻
Thank you so much!
Me encantó todo lo que ví!!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Thanks for watching
You make jealous with your trash finds. We can’t get wood pieces. I use to be able to get wine bottles but then that was stopped ( decorated them and sold them).
You could buy non alcoholic sparkling grape juice bottles to decorate.
Try going to the local bars and ask them for their empty bottles
Customers,would bring their bottles to me,ask a cashier,love the frosted ones👍
Dorothy says 👍
Just ask your friends to save their bottles for you.
Hi, this is the first time I watch your channel. I love, love, love every piece you turned from T. to T. I'm glad you did not see the owl. I would've bought it. You are very talented. You have a new subscriber. : )
So glad you found me! Hope you found lots of great content 💔
Deidra, you are incredibly creative with an outstanding artistic eye. I can’t make up my mind which project I liked best but that rocking chair was a terrific find and I would never have thought to take a rusty crusty broken scale and include it an beautifully warm vignette. Wow. Just wow!
Thanks so much 😊
Omgosh, unbelievable finds and redos
I love putting found objects in the garden and flower beds. You have lots of lovely ideas. You're so lucky to get things at the dump. Our landfill/dump doesn't allow you to take anything.
Thanks so much 😊
Girl, I want to go dump shopping with you! You find the coolest treasures. God has blessed you with a DIY spirit. Besides seeing the beautiful items you create I enjoy the basic supplies you use. There are so many things at the craft shops our $$ can leave our pockets fast. But you create very unique treasures with basic supplies.
Aww thanks so much for watching and I am glad you are enjoying my videos!
Wow! You are truly the best!! I can not imagine what runs through your mind! You are unique!! Hands down the best!! Ty for sharing your videos!
