Mary, your home is so beautiful and welcoming. I can sense God's peace and sweet comfort in every inch of your home and property. A wonderful refuge, especially "for such a time as this" we are living in. May the Lord continue to bless and use your gifts and talents for His glory. Thank you for all that you do to bless others.
Absolutely beautiful! It has the feel of comfort and peace ☺️ When I consider the sounds of all the birds and the water feature, I feel like you’ve got a slice of heaven right there. If I lived there, I bet I’d never struggle with stress or anxiety again. God bless you!
I can't say it enough how beautiful your property is. The porch is so welcoming and full of serenity and peaceful vibes. I love it so much!
She is blessed to live there. 💗
So many ideas, I wish I was thirty years younger.
Always a delight to watch your transformations dear Mary! You are an inspiration to us all.❤
Country comfort…such a sense of peace amongst God’s beauty ❤
I so look forward to you doing your front porch every year! It's just so beautiful and relaxing! Thank you for always such wonderful inspiration Mary!!!
😅
Mary, John I love, love the “new” deck! The railing is perfect & definitely adds country charm. Great job you two! Totally worth your effort! So glad you are reusing the table & chairs and water feature. I do like when the door looses some paint. Love the sound of the water. The bike, poet’s pillow, so inviting and charming. Thank you for taking me along.
Fill the sink with smooth rocks. So pretty and will sound like the real deal.
Mary, what a great makeover! I'm really glad you kept the water feature :-) I have painted all my garden furniture with blackboard paint, very strong and cheap and it dries within minutes. And the black combines great with the greens and the flowers.
I don't know what I was enjoying more, the makeover, or hearing nature's songs being sung. As always, I hated to see it end.
Mary, you are blessed!!! Your love of nature is always evident in your designs and decor....also your photos are awesome...would you ever consider doing a book with pictures of plants and flowers??? You could co-author with your sister!!! ❤😊😊
I’d be taking naps out there daily. The water running. The birds singing and a swing. Yes please!😴😴
It wouldn’t be Mary’s BEAUTUFUL porch without the iconic vintage sink ❤
The floors of the decks are amazing. Keep the bike it is beautiful. I look forward to your posts every week. 🌸
Oh that display is ever so lovely, but that cat steals the show every time, I hope that he/she appreciates and approves of all the efforts you put in (for its sake) is worth it 💕
Lovely ..you should by a small Mayer lemon to put on porch ..keeping it small but will still give you some lemons 🍋
John pressure washing in sturdy boots. Mary, carrying porch railings and heavy sinks...flip-flops.
Love when you decorate on a budget by using things you already have. Power washers are the best aren’t they? Your front porch is heavenly. Thanks for all the great ideas, motivation and inspiration you provide to all your followers each week.
Hi Mary, you’re so incredible creative. I love watching your videos every week. I am looking forward to see what you will post next Wednesday.
Everyone needs a place to go where they can find some peace and tranquility! This is the perfect spot! Thank you for taking us on your journey and giving us inspiration to create our own calming space❤❤❤
You haven’t create a place of peace and beauty. I love the sound of your fountain and the birdsong. Please show us your honeysuckle when it blooms.
I have enjoyed watching you bring these outdoor spaces to life over the years. This turned out beautiful and so serene, the water feature never gets old.
The bike might be my favorite addition to your porch! I LOVE the French Country vibe it brings. I never get tired of watching you work.
You have made your place such a beautiful place inside and out. Never feel like the things you do are old fashioned, out of date or whatever the case may be. These are the things that bring joy and happiness no matter the style. What we love is what we should do. I love bycicles used as decor. You have brillant ideas that turn into beautiful things. Be secure in knowing that you are an amazing creator/decorator! Your husband is a great asset to you too.
Please don’t take your water feature away, so peaceful. You and John always do such a great job and of course your boys. I have four and so enjoy what they do as adults.
Good evening Mary! Love blue with green…just as in blue skies and green grass! While your birds were singing in the background so are my birds singing in my yard! Isn’t it ever so peaceful to hear them singing?! 💕
I love your front porch decorating every Spring!🪴My mom had a bicycle just like yours, painted white with a flower basket, she would set in front of her front porch. A water lily would be perfect in your sink! God bless!
Your videos give me joy and relaxation. Birds singing, water running, and beauty. I could sit there all day, but then I would get nothing done. lol
Hi Mary I never get tired of your videos How you challenge us to do things even on a buget Last yr Istole your idea with the water feature I turned 70 and my faimly gave me a big party at my home Ihad a very tired corner on my property that everyone could see in the yard and wanted to do somethig with it so we did a water feature like yours it gave us such joy to do and ended up being a high lite of our yard so even when you think things are tired and old they really give us so much insperation thanks for your videos please keep them coming Iwill tresure my water feature for yrs to come Kathy Decoste Ontario Canada God Bless
You are a truly unique and talented UA-cam lady. An inspiration for all the ladies that can't use their talents.. 👏👏👏😗😗😗
Mary, Your transformation is truly Surreal so elegant, peaceful and inviting. The sound of your beautiful Water Feature, Birds Chirping, The Cat strolling by and the Pops of Colour with the many Different Plants . Having the Option to Swing with the Lovely Blue Pillows, The Matching Throw across the back ..Giving you a Place for your Editing on the Cute Table at your Feet. Above Your Head is a gorgeous blooming Honey Sucker Vine draping over your Head smelling the Sweetest Aroma Blowing By . This section of your front porch entrance is so Inviting it should be apart of so many Home Outdoor Living Magazines sharing with people around the world how you can take findings from around your Home. The Bike adds as a gorgeous piece of Decor Displaying that Elegant pop of colour with your Flowers in the front Basket. Sharing with everyone how to use a Old Wash Basin as A Beautiful Water Feature, hearing the music of trinkling water , birds singing, the precious cat meowing . Adding the used lumber , hog panels with the honey sucker vine shading over is so many ways to use what already exists.. Hearing you say nothing was purchased new to make this Elegant Outdoor living just adding the Pillows and Throw you have over a year was that pop of Gorgeous blue Matching the Gorgeous Blue Skies . Goes to show you , you can do the same by just being a little creative with what you already have . This Front Entrance would be a Gorgeous Front Cover of Many Outdoor Magazines ....💙💙💙Thanks Mary for Sharing and Inspiring So Many To Do the Same💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Sweet Mary, you always amaze me with your abundant energy. I to have lots of energy but A 77 I take it slower but still go at it with excitement of what I can get accomplished . I love watching you every week. You inspire me be more creative.
I love the bicycle! That is one of those pieces that never seems to go out of style!
So beautiful and peaceful. Mary, with John & the boys appearing more in your videos you will have to change your intro to “welcome to OUR channel”. The channel has become quite the family venture and is wonderful to see you all working together. ❤️
Ive been waiting for this portion of your deck to get the "Mary" redo. It is so beautiful and fresh looking with the blue color and all the lush of your plants. I simply love the water feature and creativity of using found items. The bicycle is the perfect finishing touch. I would not be able to get anything done with all of you and John's outdoor spaces to linger on and refresh......outstanding!! Look foward to each video.
Just love how you decorate. It's beautiful. Love the bicycle.
I have always loved your water feature and every detail you put into making your spaces so welcoming. I can imagine how enjoyable it would be to sit on that lovely and serene deck.
As usual mary you've created a haven wr all want to visit and there isnt anything wrong with old fashioned or your bike
It is all a part of the serenity you've created
The blue accents look beautiful Mary! Your family must love spending time out there on such a cozy porch! Ur cat has so much personality 😅 He's adorable! I love his cameos!
Isn’t it amazing how the porch looks after pressure washing! Beautiful! I love how the table and chairs look, stunning! The bicycle looks wonderful, I love it! So stinkin cute! You never cease to amaze me! You are so amazing, in the way you make things so easy and beautiful! Love, love the water fountain! Your porch is always so gorgeous, so inviting! You just want to sit and visit! Love, love the outcome! Mary, I honestly believe you can do anything! It is co very comfortable and peaceful!💚💛💙☺️🎍🌳
Oh how I would love to have an outdoor space like that 😍
Beautiful as always, Mary. Your family is blessed to have you as the woman of the house.
Mary, I love it all! The hints of blue with the green and white is very summery.
I LOVE OLD BIKES AS DECOR OUTSIDE. I don’t think they will ever go out of fashion and so what if it does! LOL!!! We love what we love period.
Always enjoy your outdoor videos and all the song birds …… just what a soul needs…. Serenity !
So happy that you kept your sink/fountain! It has always been the favorite part of your porch! I love the results of your hard work with John’s help of course!😊🌸😊
As HGTV continues to become more unwatchable, I'm so happy to have found this excellent content online! This is a beautiful space presented in a beautiful video by a beautiful lady.
Thank you for not including jiggling and swooping camera tricks, split-second views (short attention span, anyone?), and irksome music competing with your voice over. I was relaxed as I viewed this freshening up of your front porch, and my eyes didn't feel tired and stressed at the end. I'm so thankful for your straightforward, calm and informative manner of presenting your projects. And at the end, I was treated to views of the finished product that were lengthy enough to allow me to take it all in. Such enjoyment! And since my eyes still feel fresh, I'm going to watch more!
Everything you do Mary, comes to life!! Looks so peaceful. Miss seeing MB, hope she’s well. Maybe a boyfriend?
It looks so serene. I could sit all day at your porch, listening to the water trickling n bird’s singing to their heart’s content. It’s more cottage like with that sweet bicycle at the entrance. It feels so good to have fresh paint. It’s like a brand new space. I like the natural wood on the deck. Mary, it’s just beautiful n I love it.
♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟🌟
I love all the improvements you did to the porch! The deck natural color is a huge improvement. The fresh paint always makes things look fresh and new. The movement of the water fountain was great as well. Mary every thing looks amazing! You have such a great eye for decorating and designing ❤ I look forward to your videos ❤❤
What a gifted lady you are, sweet sister. A beautiful job as always. Thank you for inspiring us to be dedicated homemakers.
I love how you have been switching it up to some blue this year. It really refreshes everything. The he bicycle is definitely not too old fashioned. It looks perfect!❤️
I really like to watch that pressure washers magic on that floor!
Mary, really it’s not easy to find the words to describe the porch and surroundings. So peaceful and calming!❤
Love that natural wood on the deck. We bought a home it has a large painted deck. I hope to get it back to natural wood next year. Simply beautiful.
Mary, I love your front deck the best! Its so charming. My favorite videos are watching you revamp that space and listening to your thought process and decor ideas. I can almost smell the air and fresh plants and feel the breeze while rocking on the porch swing. Its genuinely peaceful. ❤
Mary you always downplay your decor and you really should be so proud of everything you put together. It’s always so beautiful like the structure and the bike. I love the blue with the black! Perfection!
Mary, your home and porches and gardens are just so wonderful! I could just sit on your front porch with a good book and spend the day. And not get one thing done. Except I would probably fall asleep. The birds provide the sweetest concert.
The porch looks so pretty and it looks so calming and relaxing! I love the sound of the running water! Very very peaceful! ❤❤
I love your white bistro set!! I'd never get tired of it, and I'd never get rid of it that's for sure!! Your decks look amazing after the old finish has been removed! It's such a feeling of instant gratification to see how fast it cleans wood or concrete! Love my pressure sprayer, and I use it every spring on our large cement pad patio, cement steps, and stone walks. What a difference the sprayer makes in quite a short time! You have created a comforting and relaxing oasis that feeds your soul. I'd be afraid putting those railings back up too! Such fun getting to the final placement of everything after all yours and John's hard work! Truly beautiful! 😊 ~~M~~
So charming! 😊 I want to sit on the porch with a lemonade. You and your husband are so creative. When can you come over and work your magic on my yard!❤ just lovely
The blue is a winner
Your porch is so beautiful! I love the water feature and bicycle...how charming! Thank you for bringing a little joy into my afternoon ❤❤❤
I "need" A water feature and a bicycle!
😃. 🌺🌺🌺
Love the touches of blue ! Always so pretty ❤
I would love to sit on your porch, it must be so relaxing hearing the water trickling and the birds singing❤
Oh Mary, you are so talented, I love everything you do. Wish I had that touch. I absolutely love your bike on the front porch. It looks so cute. The porch looks to inviting. I just want to sit there with a glass of cold ice tea, listen to the water sound, and the beautiful birds singing their little hearts out. Absolutely gorgeous 😍 ❤️ thank you for sharing. Love it all 😊
When my rheumatoid is at its worst and I just wanna quit, I watch one of Ms. Mary’s videos and am INSTANTLY energized/motivated to get busy! And to be more efficient. I DO have ONE question: do you think she ever sleeps?
Great video, Mary. I have two bikes that are just sitting in the garage that I am going to re-purpose, put flowers in their baskets, display one in my front yard, and the other one in my backyard. Thank you so much for the inspiration you provide in your videos. You have a very beautiful property!
Lovely, Mary. The bike is not old fashioned, it's charming.
Love how the gentle wind makes the trees sway softly everything so green and vibrant beautiful botanical flower's so peaceful and Heavenly and most of all peaceful
Peaceful and I long for a place like this. If not here on earth, on the other side, in heaven
Mary, your porch is beautiful. Not everything has to be new to be pretty, I also like to reuse and recycle material, it’s a good thing for the environment
Thank you, Mary! Another great video❤
I'm SO happy you kept the water feature! I think of it so often and how peaceful it sounds.
Your porch is my favorite and your videos of working outside are so relaxing❤ you can just post videos every week like this one for the rest of the summer 😂 Thank you Mary for sharing your beautiful home! God bless you!
As always Mary ,you have transformed your space to a lovely relaxing retreat. Love your style and how your use of nature and natural materials always enhances and elevates your space. Great job….❤
So happy to see that you kept the water feature! That was the very first video I watched when I was looking for porch decor. Your approach was just what I wanted! Love trying to repurpose things into something new!
I put an old bike on my parents’ yard and put cascading flowers in front basket, as well as back baskets. So beautiful. People who drive by love it. Love ur bike n porch.
Thank you Mary and John for another beautiful porch make over! Always relaxing and inspiring ❣️

I’m so glad Mary you are enjoying my gift! Thank you for mentioning me! I am one of your biggest fans! Your porch looks beautiful!
OHHH MARY YOU ARE AMAZING,,,, I ADMIRE YOUR TALENT...GOD BLESS YOU ALL...HUGS FROM BRASIL.🥰😇
I really like the accent color blue on the swing as a change from your green. ( and your pillow find...wow) Love the porch with the bike and plants. The plain wood color on the porch really brings warmth to it and the dark on the railing is perfect! You should have many happy and calm hours out there. 😊
Your front porch looks so cozy and welcoming, you and your husband work really hard to make your house a beautiful home. So glad I stumbled onto your channel, I’m now binge watching older episodes, love everything you do.
Hi Mary 👋, everything looks so BEAUTIFUL. You have such a beautiful gift you can take one garage and turn it into a treasure. See you next week.
You are so sweet. Stopping to give your cat a loving scratch, so sweet!❤
So peaceful! Would be such a nice place to read a book and have a cup of tea.
I am absolutely loving this video! The bicycle adds the sweetest touch to the whole space. I love your vision and how everything just comes together flawlessly. And the sound of the trickling water makes me want to spend an afternoon drinking iced tea on your porch. ♥️. Job well done 🥰. Happy Summer!

The cats wandering thru the beautiful deck are the purrfect accompaniment to the music of the water feature!,
