I want to thank you for saving my life. I found your youtube channel by accident and I binged for one whole night. I recently lost my husband of 43 yrs (3 months ago) and I have been lost, scared, overwhelmed and a sadness that crippling...Well, thanks to you, I am refinishing furniture from thrift stores, and redoing some little parts of every room in my house. Things I did many years ago but life got in the way! Now Im busy and my mind is busy thinking of things to make or redo. I am making a spare room into a craft room too. I have projects lined up and it makes me smile, something I forgot how to do. I know my husband is smiling down on me. From the botom of my heart - Thank You & God Bless!!!
Dee. . Sorry for your recent loss. I am glad you are being creative and keeping busy in your grief. Do take care of yourself even if you don't feel like it. I will say a prayer for you.
Thank you so much!!! Keep making your fabulous videos...
Dee I’m sorry for your loss. I’m glad you have found solace in your projects. God bless you!!
Dee, God bless you in your loss. How wonderful to find something you love to do.
I feel for you. Prayers. I am getting quietness from watching with a health issue that isn't helped yet with meds. And it gives me peace.
I really loved the desk. The contrast of the top of the desk to the rest was really good. A professional finish
Mary, I think you did a splendid job on that desk. The knobs are just fine.
Watching your videos encouraged me to paint my faux fireplace from a cherry color to a white linen chalk paint, and I also redid the top of my coffee table to a java color stain, and the body in white linen. So so happy with the results! Thanks...
Mary, The piece looks stunning and using the salvaged hardware was perfect...thank you for all you share with us!
I absolutely love the desk hardware included! It gave me an ideal for some built in bookcases in our “ new” old 1954 ranch home we are in process of moving into! Thank you so much 😊 for your videos♥️♥️
I think it turned out BEAUTIFUL LOVE the wood tone on top of the desk!
Just a great ideal. Lots of hints and tips as always. Did my first piece yesterday and it looks great. Yes wax on a darker paint is hard work. I'm sticking to lighter colours for a while. Thank you for your inspiration.
So Beautiful!!! I sure do love spending time watching your videos! Would love to see more sewing or gardening vids. I know you are so busy! I finally painted my first hutch and matching stand in the Waverly Agape color and it looks amazing. Your inspiration is expanding! 😂💗💗💗
Love all your videos, have really inspired me. I have been picking up things from garage sales and fixing them up and giving to family. I hope you post video from your weekend show.
Love it Mary! And I like your hardware! Turned out so pretty. What a gift you have. Thank you for sharing with us at this very busy time. Best wishes for your upcoming sale! And have so much fun meeting your followers! 🍃🌼🍃
Oh Mary I'm so glad to hear your gping to wear a mask. Soon please. .
Love, love, love your channel & your work that you produce. I have never thought of myself as one to do any painting, refinishing or any of the like. However, you have converted me & I must try my hand at an old desk that I have 😍
Very nice Mary! Love all your work. You will have no problem selling what you have done.
I love this desk. Beautiful
Looks great. I especially love the top
Just found your channel. In the first video you were showing some of your wildlife photography. The outdoor beauty of your land really appealed to me! Excellent transformation on this desk. Looks so much better with your special touch.
Beautiful! The color is perfect!
Would’ve liked the desk refinished in original wood. If the rest of the wood could turn out like the top, this piece would be truly spectacular!
Just gorgeous!
The drawer knobs and pulls look like they were meant to be with that piece :)
Beautiful piece!
Love the top of the desk, and the knobs look ok. Good luck at the Vintage fair.
I like the hardware you used; you always have that nice touch❤️
Absolutely Gorgeous ❤️
You do beautiful work.
I absolutely love this! I’d buy it in a heartbeat if I lived anywhere near Ohio! 😊
Awesome 👏, as always!!! TFS 👍
So I've been watching you for a long time and I wanted to know if you always use a water based latex paint? If you do what is your favorite brand in do you ever use chalk paint? I love everything you do! And using the plastic wrap is genius!💜
Very inspiring! Love everything about you! Just wandering if you can do a video or blog about clothing how to keep it simple. Love your skirts !
Love the transformation of this piece, I have learned alot from you, I recently redid my old oak file cabinet the same way as this desk, I am sooo happy to hear your going to be getting a mask!! I was worried about you, thanks again
Beautiful!
Looks fantastic! ♥️♥️♥️
Love it Mary💓
Your piece turned out nice I'm sure you will have no problem selling it. Have a wonderful blessed day.🌻🌿🌼🌾
This is gorgeous. Nice job! Thanks for sharing! Blessings to you.
omaga that is beautiful
I just love watching you videos💕
COULD UOU PLEASE DO A VIDEO SOMETIME ON HOW 😊TO PROPERLY CLEN A PAINT SPRAYER. 😊
Thanks Mary.
I would love this!
That is a good idea.
Yes please
I would like that, too!
A whole episode on tips and tricks w the paint sprayer would be amazing
Its beautiful
I like the knobs just wished you had a plainer handle. even the "cup" kind like in the kitchens.
✨beautiful ✨💖
Awesome....
Were you just using water on the wall paper for the inner drawers? thanks....Judie I enjoy your videos so much! thank you
Who the heck dislikes a video like this??
awesome...your great...yes please buy some kind of mask...not good to inhale paint especially that you paint often...love everything u do👍
A maker I follow here on youtube swears by the RZ mask. Find him on home made moder and another one who recommends it is Mike from modern builds
This is the first time I watched your videos and I thought she does absolutely amazing work! Then as I was watching I noticed your head covering and then I noticed ur dresses. I got so excited then I thought well maybe she just likes skirts lol. So I went to the community just to see if you mentioned anything about ur faith. I got to you answering questions video and their it was. I knew you had to be something associated with my church which is Wesleyan Methodist. 5 generations went their then I went to Wesleyan Methodist private school that had maybe 15 kids in my class. Sadly I went the worlds way and it sucked! Lol. Pardon me but that's the word that comes to mind. It can be very tough without christ. But it's taken lots of work to get back to where I was. I dont think people realize what God can do in their lives. I compare to 2 lives I had and there is no comparison. I'm still working on getting the life I had back. I want it more than anything. But I just wanted to thank u for being such a inspiration with ur work but more importantly your faith. I never came across ur videos on UA-cam but I'll be watching every single day for a new video. Thank u thank u! You are absolutely amazing!😉♥️
Beautiful! What was the type of paper you lined the drawers with and what were you spraying on the back of them? TFS!
I'm so glad to hear you are going to buy a mask . . . :O)
I love the work that you do but this one I don’t know I would not have painted it. Don’t get me wrong it looks nice, but for me It’s just a beautiful piece of furniture that should’ve been re-furnished not painted
What is the name of the paint? I just love watching you.
Did the piece sell? If so how much did it go for?... Such a beautiful desk
I need to win the lottery so I can buy a really big house and purchase all of your furniture. 🐱
Trying to figure out what she said at the end. She said she didn't like the base color. What color was it that she used? Is spectral a brand or a shade?
Mary! It turned out beautiful, knobs, pulls and all! Every choice you made with this pieces is a winner! Will you be vlogging any during the vintage fair? I would love you see your both set up. Wish I lived close enough to attend. Best wishes, I know you'll do well. Warm hugs from Atlanta GA...
Mary... that top on this piece came out so stunning! WOW what a difference ....
Take pictures of your SPACE so we can see all your incredible pieces! Wish I lived closer to come. Another fabulous job!

The first years
It 's a very
She's at it again! Always beautiful. Love how she pays attention to details. Always works in her cute little flip-flops. Great job
Love it! I think the hardware looks pretty this way. You gave me hope for a second hand dresser that I’ve had for years! 😍
What a beautiful piece, Mary. I love the wallpaper in the drawers.
Plastic wrap instead of painter's tape, great idea! The desk is gorgeous, and the hardware kept the vintage look. I would definitely buy it!! Good job!
Is the “spectral” (sp.?) paint a latex interior wall paint or something else? Also, what sheen is the paint, i.e.flat, eggshell, semi-gloss, etc.? Thank you for posting answers to these questions in the notes section of this video. (The small lettering on the picture of the Best Look paint can that you inserted in the video was too small and blurry for me to read on my iPad). Thanks for a great video.
Maybe the plastic is easier. But it lasts for 500 years. I'm avoiding plastic whenever I can now. But I agree, good job on the desk.
Hi can you tell me where I can get the drapes I saw on your blog they. Were very light and three different colors one color on top of the other thank you Mary b
lulurew where is the notes section of the video??
bryson west let plastic set out in the sun for awhile and see what happens. Not all plastics last hundreds of years. Like plastic bags from the grocery store. Let them out in the elements and they just fall apart.
Beautiful job Mary. What a lovely desk. I could sit at it for hours. Thank you for sharing your projects. Love it all.
Great job! You are so inspiring on everything you create. Good luck on selling at your fair.
you did an awesome job on the sanding. wow what a great piece. I love it. I'm glad your getting a mask. I hope your enjoying your summer!
its beautiful!! I think the knobs look great!!! I would totally buy that exactly the way it looks and not change a thing...if only i lived near you;)
I just love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent.
It turned out great! I love your videos! You're so helpful and informative. Thanks for sharing your projects.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE 💟 how this desk turned out !!!... You did an AMAZING JOB on it !!!
Turned out so beautifully. Personally, I think it would make a wonderful vanity. Who’d thought to use shrink wrap?? Great idea!!! Tsmfs!! ❤️
That shrink wrap is a lifesaver. So much better than taping off! Mask is a good idea, please do add type you find more comfortable. I was thinking of the fine paint getting in your hair!
Nice drawer lining paper! Love the top, indeed. Pretty.
Mary I think all the handles look authentic to the piece! Great job! I'm sure you'll sell all your pieces at the market. Love your energy! Missed your kitties in the video! Although I know they must get in the way, petting them will help with any stress you're feeling!
I enjoy your videos so much. The wallpaper in the drawers in a nice touch. The piece is stunning!
The desk (could also be used as a vanity) is so pretty and the hardware just adds to the glamour of the piece. Sanding the top was best decision as the grain in the wood is such an amazing contrast to the paint. Well done, Mary!!!!!!! Another home run.
I was thinking vanity too! I’m searching yard sales and shops all the time now.
Oh Mary it looks so good! I have a big chest of drawers that I’ve been going back and forth about painting. I think seeing this solidifies my option to paint it! Just beautiful.
What a beautiful desk. I love the white and wood mix together. I have been thinking about doing the same color combo on my coffee and end tables. Thanks for the inspiration.
I bought your candle melts.....and I'm very picky about my candles. I wanted to try and I'm so glad I did! Wonderful scent throw.
I love watching you do your magic! Please wear rubber gloves when you use harsh chemicals! I've had chemical burns and my hands ache when I see you unprotected. :)
🔴Mary, I absolutely love your videos and the beautiful work you do, but PLEASE wear a mask and protect your precious lungs when you spray paint or sand old furniture. Once that stuff gets in your lungs, you can't get it out! You really do BEAUTIFUL work and take real nice care of your pieces. We want to be able to watch and enjoy your videos for years to come! ❤ Btw, don't over think it, the hardware and every thing looks great!
Face mask!
My friend, a professional painter died of cancer which started in his sinuses. Not pretty.
Yeah she mentioned in the video that she is looking for one.
Thank you for saying this, I will be wearing one from now on when I paint.
Mary your work is just wonderfull. Please may I know what kind of paints you use that are water base? Thank you so much for sharing.
I agree your paint looks off but the only way it made a difference was when you painted the hardware and put it on then the hardware looked off. I think you should have painted the hardware black then it would have blended. What did the old hardware look like???
I absolutely loved the top. I am glad you left the original color of the wood on it instead of going darker.
💚
Hi Mary! I love watching your videos. Can you show us how to actually operate the paint sprayer. I've never used one.
I am a HUGE fan...I just Love your channel soooo much !! I would like to send you a little something as a Thank You for all your WONDERFUL videos. Do you have a PO box ?? Thanks For Everything you do !!! Arlene from Arlenes Creations.
Where is the vintage fair? Would like to attend. Thanks! And the desk looks great
I believe she said in her last video Walnut Creek Ohio? June 28-29th
Hi Mary! Do you have to water down your paint a bit to use sprayer? What about the poly Acrylic? Do you spray it straight from the container to the hopper? Thank you for answering my questions. The desk came out beautiful!
I was also wondering about applying poly. I have a beautiful table that needs poly but I'm terrified I will ruin it!
I love how this piece turned out, and I’m a fan of those knobs. Nicely done!
When I spray my furniture I leave the drawers in the desk. I then avoid all of the saran wrap and taping. Occasionally I have to clean it up with a brush but usually not. Also I think you have bleed thru and sometimes I have to use shellac to get rid of it but I'd leave it the desk is gorgeous the off white color. I love your channel. Your soooo talented. ❤💕
I’m sooo, sooo glad that you’re getting a mask to wear while using the paint sprayer....I was worrying about your breathing in the spray!
I think the desk turned out great. Love the color, the top turned out just beautiful and I really liked the nobs. I know you have an expert eye, but I think they look great. I'd totally buy that desk. I love the wallpaper that you lined the drawers with. Any idea brand and pattern names?
What compressor do you use? TIA
Can you take your camera to the vintage fair
WOW! What a transformation! Good job,Mary!I don't think u will have any trouble selling it! Don't know where u live,but I'm in Florida. TFS! LOVE the finished piece:like tht u left top wooden(perfect)&wallpaper in drawers(nice touch)& hardware goes with piece(& that's something easy 2 change, if buyer doesn't like)! Good Luck!😍💝
WooHoo! I love it so much! You make everything seem fun and exciting to create! Try not to stress too much. It’s not healthy, trust me I know! You still have time and what you get done will be beautiful! Can’t wait to see it all! I laughed about the straight lines you touched up! I too am like that! Enjoy creating and remember everything you have gotten completed and not all that you were wanting to get done. It’s hard to meet our own expectations isn’t it? Hahaha
Great Idea to use the plastic to for covering! I will have to use that idea! Nice job!
I always look forward to watching your videos they are so inspiring and beautiful stay blessed
Looks amazing. Great job
I'd like to second the request for the "how to" paint sprayer video. Cleaning and changing colors. Love your videos :) I am from Ohio and I get homesick when I watch your videos!
Me too!
I love the color and the hardware; wouldn't change a thing, its beautiful!
Try a stain blocking primer on old and/or stained wood pieces. Your top coat will look as you intended in the end because the primer will block the pigments from mixing thereby modifying the final outcome. There are primers made to block “heavy” staining. That’s what you’ll need.
That said, that desk came out great! The hardware works really well with it too.
I love that piece!!! Nice style of desk.
Wooow..HOW BEAUTIFUL...REALLY REALLY NICE WORK. I R..AMAZING..👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌🙋🏻♀️
