Cindy, you are hilarious! You had me laughing out loud with your bloopers! I have been waiting for your tote bag makeover, and you definitely made the wait worthwhile. The bag turned out fantastic, and definitely something I would carry! Loved all these projects today + the mini tour of your garden. So beautiful!
I’m so glad you had a chuckle at the bloopers! Laughter is good for our soul 🥰 hopefully I can share more of our gardens on future videos!
Love those bloopers 😆
Wow oh wow! That canvas bag is a total transformation. I wouldn’t of believe you did that make over if I hadn’t seen it myself. Amazed at you doing the lining ( which I love) that’s not an easy thing to do especially for beginners. I can sew a straight line but sometimes it’s not even straight 😆. You definitely know your sewing. The hat, sooo cute. Looks good on the door.
Gosh Cindy, I would love to have a work room to be able to do a lot of my maker overs. I have no space. I do most of my work in my carport. It’s gets hot n humid living in Florida. And the dog is scared to death of any of my tools. If I don’t put her in the house she’ll take off n then I have to go hunt for her. Of course I lost an hour of work.
I remember being 60ty. I still had a lot of energy but now at 72 almost 73 I’ve slowed down considerably. That’s a real bummer too.
No, I’ve never painted on material but watching your video you using a lot of Dixie Bells paint was amazing. Never new they had all this cool stuff. I think I’m gonna have to try some.
You did a great job on the basket adding that leather n bleaching it. It looks really good.
Sorry Cindy, I got yanking so much that I’ve left a long comment . I guess I needed to chat since I have no one to chat with except the dog. I think she gets tired of hearing my voice.
Thanks for a great video.
♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟
Hi Shelly, first of all, I love that you leave long comments it really does mean a lot to me. Sounds like you do a lot of work in your carport and I give you a lot of credit for working in the heat and humidity of Florida. I’m so glad that you’re inspired by watching our videos and I hope to bring you more of our projects in the future. Thanks for watching.🥰🥰
@shellydehart8217 I love your comment. I too seem to be yucky when "talking" on here too. You actually give me hope and discouragement at the same time, but good discouragement if that means anything. You talking about your age. I've been through a lot In my life and lost my husband recently. What you said about remembering being 60ty and having a lot of life in ya and now at 72 slowing down tremendously. I'm praying that my last half of my 60ty's will be uphill. I want to do this kind of stuff. I love re-purposeing things I find in GW bins or thrift store. I know with my health the way it is I don't many years. I cant do furniture because I have no muscle man to help me. Lol So small item upcycling is for me. God bless you and you can chat with me anytime. I'd love to see your work. Are you on here too? I gotta hand it to you working in Floridas heat like that. I can't handle that. I'll need an AC put in my garage. 😂 I dont think the industrial fan will work very well. Best of luck on all you do.
That bag makeover is so chic! Thanks for the new paint resource, Cindy.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching Karen!😊
I like the shower curtain table cloth-have done this too. Also certsin sheets, quilts, scarves, even a pillow cover. Great projects!
Thanks for the tips!😊
I’ve never painted furniture, but I first saw a vloger ( Farmhouse On Boone ) about a year and a half ago. Turned out stunning.
Loved how you repurposed your findings, especially your bag.
Btw, loved your bloopers!
Painting furniture is so much fun! I’m so glad you enjoyed the bloopers😂
I LOVE all these projects! The bag make over is nothing short of amazing! I would definitely use that! I may have to look for one to make over myself! Love your videos!
The bag turned out better than I expected! So glad you are inspired to look for one for yourself! Thanks for watching and for sending the kind words! 🥰
Love the Vanna vibes at the end.
😂😂😂😂 Too funny!
I just wanted to say that i LOVED your bloopers!! Its just a reintegration of why i enjoy your videos. You keep it real. Your honest and you stick to what YOU like!
Thank you so much!! We need more real online, don't we?? Thanks for watching!
The thumbnail portion was just too cute and funny! Great makeovers!!
Glad you liked it!! It such a weird thing to do😊
Funny bloopers! I would have never thought this a problem for you. You are always so
Natural and down-to-earth! You projects always turn out beautiful and perfect. Also, it looks like you live in the Garden of Eden! I laughed so hard at you. Thanks for sharing everything!
I’m thrilled that the bloopers brought you some laughter! We need to laugh at ourselves, it keeps us humble 😊 thanks for watching and for your sweet words 😊
You are so fun to watch! I can’t wait to see your front porch video!……oh and if you are up for a challenge/suggestion, I’d LOVE to see you make a birdbath out of thrifted items! I’ve been watching other UA-camrs do them and each one is so unique. I think you’d do a stellar job and it would look so cute in your amazing yard.❤
Thanks for the idea! I’ll dig around in my stash and see what I can come up with! Thanks so much for the suggestion- I welcome any ideas😊
Omg that tote bag is amazing!!! Love it to death, what an amazing transfer!
I’m loving it too!😊
AT OUR 1855 FARMHOUSE, I DESIGNED A ROUND GALVANIZED BUCKET FOR A KITCHEN SINK AND LOVED IT...RECESSED IN OUR GALVANIZED ISLAND TOP THAT WORE LIKE IRON---I LOVED THAT TOP, COULD CLEAN WITH CLORX CLEAN-UP AND A A TOWEL RAG AND IT WAS GREAT!
That sounds amazing!! I bet it looked great in your farmhouse😊
Love the door with the hat, the bag and the hummingbird feeder!
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoy the projects!
So much talent contained in such a small human! Then top it off with humor. Keep on rocking it!
Hahaha! Thanks so much for your kind words! They brought a smile to my face😊😊
I do love watching your videos, you are a very talented person. As a crafter/flipper myself, you give me such great inspiration. Thanks for all your ideas & creations.
Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you find inspiration here😊
What a lovely, inviting table!!
Thank you! 😊
Never thought of using a shower curtain for a table cloth just luv it !😊
And for only a couple of bucks!😊
Just want to let you know that colored hummingbird sugar water is NOT recommended.. Just boiled water, sugar.
Thank you! I’ll double check my bottle of premixed feed and maybe reconsider using it. I want to keep the birds healthy 🕊️🕊️
I love what you did with your pieces!!
..especially the bag!! 😍😍 that turned out awesome! And your hydrangeas on the dining room table are absolutely gorgeous!
You are so creative and ingenious! Keep the videos coming! 😊
Thanks so much! 😊 We have more videos in the works!
I wish you had have shown the finished insides of the tote bag when it was completely finished! That was awesome. I love all your re-do’s!
Agh! I’m sorry I didn’t think of that when I recorded the video! I’ll try to fit it in in an upcoming video 😊 Thanks for the suggestion!
A tip to remove the backing of peel and stick paper is to make a small rip in the side of it. The backing will rip but the paper itself won’t; start to peel from this rip. That works for me every time. I love all of your projects, great job. 😊
Great tip! Thanks I will give this a try next time😊
Cindy, amazing as usual. Absolutely LOVE LOVE your metal wash basin sink!!! And your dahlias are AMAZING!!!
Thanks so much! I have the laundry room makeover on my blog at reinventeddelaware.com Thanks about the dahlias- the yellow ones are about 10” in diameter 😊
The bag makeover is so awesome. What a change. It is so amazing. Nice. Love the rest too. 😊😊😊❤❤👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much 🤗
Yep...LUV skipping around😊 & ur SIMPLE 2 the point directions. Luv that TOTE👍. Jealous of ur the GORG Hydrangeas 🪻. Love the curtain as table cloth...& why not👍😊
Skipping around keep things interesting! Thanks for your kind comment 😊
I love the way the bag turned out, had my doubts from the start but turned out beautifully!
Thank you! 😊 I was a little surprised at the results too😂😂😂
Cindy, you gave me some courage to put a transfer on to fabric. Love that bag!!
You can do it!😊
OMG I love your idea of using the shower curtain as a tablecloth I’m going to keep my eyes open for interesting shower curtain to use as a tablecloth 😁
I’m sure you will find one you love!😊
Love, love, love the bag.
Me too! 😊
Love all the projects. Your creativity is amazing.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much!😊
By the way the little flower on the feeder is there to keep bees from getting the nectar. 😁
Oh Em goodness thank you for the tip about the little flower keeping the bees out! I had no idea the purpose 😊
😮 wow that tote makeover is fabulous! I’ve painted on cloth but never did what you did. Your flips are wonderful.😊❤
Thank you! 😊 So glad you enjoyed the projects 😊
Thank you for making my day enjoyable
Any time! thanks for watching. I really appreciate it. 😊
I love the bag but the bloopers ha ha awesome ❣️
Glad you liked it!! We need to laugh at ourselves sometimes!😊
Love the bag, your front porch is super cute! You gave me a lot of great ideas! Thank you
You are so welcome! I’m excited to share the whole front porch soon!
Hi Cindy, wall paper TIP; if you add scotch tape or any tape to a corner on both sides it will make it easier to pull apart. A sister DIYER showed this tip on a video I saw I just can't remember who it was so sorry about that. Have a great day everyone.
That’s a great tip, Rachel! Thanks for sharing it with us 😊
Love all the projects, great job♥️♥️♥️
Thanks so much! 😊
You are so creative, always amazed by your ingenuity
Well that brightened my day! Thanks for your encouragement 🥰
Oh my goodness....You crack me up! And to answer your question...YES and NO....LOL it depends on how the person, in this case it's YOU, spreads out the project process. In this case, NO I don't mind it! You do it so well so it makes an interesting and exciting adventure watching you create. I also love seeing your yard. Adore the flowers and plants. That tote turned out great and no, I've not painted fabric yet although I want to and yes I use transfers all the time but not on fabric....yet. I actually have fabric very similar to that transfer that I have planned on using to line a tote that I make myself. Great idea and I'm trying to figure out how I can use my old door like you did, and I just happen to have some old wooden castors, too. Score!
I'm so glad to bring some laughter to your day! It's so good for our souls! We really enjoy our yard and working it in is like therapy! I hope you can figure out how to use your door for your decor!
Put a piece of tape on each piece of the peel and stick wall paper on one corner (one piece on the backing, one piece on the wall paper with sticky side facing in toward each other,) then pull the two pieces of tape away from one another. Should work! Works when you're decopauging with napkins and need to separate the plys also!
Omgoodness this is brilliant! Thanks so much for sharing this tip 😊
I LOVE the tote bag ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Me too! It looks much better😊
Loved everything you made over in this video. You have the best ideas and execute them so well. If only I could have even just a portion of your talents…. You inspire me to try though. God bless you and your husband. Thank you!
Thank you so much! Dig deep my friend, you have more talent than you know!🥰 Thank you for the kind words!
Love your video.❤ You are so cute with your bloopers. Love the bag!❤😂
Thank you so much!! I’m glad you enjoyed the bloopers 😊
@@ReinventedDelaware your human! Lol 🥰
You are
Love your bloopers.
Glad you like them! We try to keep it real around here!😀
Love your bloopers. You’re so cute.
Haha! Thanks! we all need to chuckly a bit more in this life, right? have a great day! 🥰
Love it all 😮
Thanks so much. 😊
I just subscribed yesterday. Am loving your videos.❤
Welcome!! thanks for subscribing Maggie! 😊
I’m a new subscriber!😊 I love your content and your projects came out beautifully!!❤😍
Thanks so much! 😊 I’m so glad you joined our journey here!
Live the bag!!!
Love the bag! Correcting my blopper😂
Thank you 😊
I completely understood 😊
Loved the bloopers so much!! I also love what you did with the bag. The step stool is perfect for you right near your pantry. The transfer and paint color is great. Personally i think i would I'd of left some black on it somewhere - maybe the sides, inside and outside. I think it would bring out the transfer much more. Everything looked fantastic as usual. I had something else i wanted to add but im having a Sometimers moment so if i remember it after i watch this again I'll let you know. Hehehe. God bless and happy thrifting.
I'm so glad you enjoy the bloopers - it's good to chuckle at ourselves! Thanks for your suggestions. There are so many ways to makeover projects! If you think of the thing you forgot, let me know! Also, I hope you saw my comment back to you about the links not working. Thanks for watching and God Bless you too! 🥰
@@ReinventedDelaware No, I haven't found that yet . I'll try to find it. Thanks so much.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it😊
It’s all beautiful!!! You are hilarious. I know someone who could be your twin sister! Looks, energy, personality all of it! ❤️🥰
Thank you so much!! It’s good to laugh at ourselves!😊😊
Excellent video
Thank you very much! So glad you enjoyed watching!
On the tote bag, did you use fabric hot glue or regular hot glue? The look great!!!
I just used regular hot glue to attach the jute braid trim. But I used E 6000 glue to attach the fabric to the tote bag. Hope that helps 😊
My tip ...at the corner use 2 strips of any tape ...one on front other on back..careful here don't let tape touch each other...pull...did it work???? I had many small stars to pull apart this worked good luck
Great tip! Thanks for sharing 😊
Have you ever used Debi's DIY Paint? It's wonderful! It's been around and I've been using it for a while. It's a clay based paint. I didn't know of any other clay based paint when I started using hers but she has it in all different colors. Since I watched you with this clay based, I thought I would tell you about the Debi's DIY Paint. It's very popular and everyone just loves it. Loved the bag you did here. I've done several canvas bags and canvas pillow covers. Thanks for sharing. I enjoy watching your videos. 💗
Thanks for info about Debi’s DIY paint! I have seen others use it but haven’t tried it yet myself. The one from Dixie Belle is pretty impressive- paint companies are coming out with amazing products! Thanks for sharing the info😊😊
You're funny! Enjoy your videos.
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching :)
Love all of your projects ❤❤❤ just one question, is the nail polish safe for the birds after it dries?
I’m pretty sure it will be. Plus, the place where I applied it is far from the area they stick their beaks in for the faux nectar🕊️🕊️
Hou are so dang cute! Lolol
Omgoodness thank you so much. 😊
What is the name of your day Lillie’s? I love the color, I only have two shades of yellow ones.
I wish I knew the name of the daylilies but I don’t. I’m sorry! 😊
Loved this video and all the great transformations. I see that you sell some items. Was hoping you might sell me a bulb of your beautiful pink daylily shown at time 5:20. Could we work that out?
Thanks so much for asking, but I just don’t think I can work that out. I’m not selling our items. The best I can offer about getting daylilies is to look on Joni seeds.com and you might be able to find the varieties there thanks for watching 😊
I like watching what you do with items. Do you have any showing how to update 1980's wood shelves with the brackets underneath?
Hi Cheryl! I don’t think I have a video about 80s shelves. I will have to keep my eyes open for some when I am out thrifting. Do you mean wood brackets underneath? I did find some cool brackets that hold a shelf up and I repurposed those. You can see them in this video. They turned out amazing! ua-cam.com/video/7vlWG5oOgeI/v-deo.html
Yes the ones with the wood brackets underneath. I found 4 at a sale for $1.00 each, so I couldn't pass them up. 3 are exactly the same and one is smaller. The larger ones are about 16" long and 4" deep by 6" from shelf top to bottom of brackets
Where did you get the Paris transfer you used on the tote bag? Thanks.
I got the transfer from Dixie Belle and it is linked in the description 😊 Thanks for asking!
Question: Where Did You Buy Your Respirator? TYIA!!!
😍💜🙂
The respirator is linked below the video in the description section along with other supplies. Thanks for asking😊
Did you check to see that the fingernail polish was not going to be toxic to the hummingbirds? A food safe acrylic paint or red paint on the glass jar would gave been safer.
Thanks for the advice! I appreciate it😊
@@ReinventedDelaware you're welcome! We crafters have to keep an eye on WHERE we decorate and WHO will be affected by it. Thanks for listening!
Wow, i live in Wilmington, where do you live ? Enjoying your videos .
Hi Mary! We live in the lower end of the state in a little town called Milford 😊
The red dye in purchased Humming bird food is not good for them. Use a 3 to 1 ratio of water and sugar. Boil 3 cups of water. Stir in 1 cup of sugar until dissolved. Cool. Your Orioles will love it too! Watch for black mold in your feeder. Wash before refilling. Enjoy!
Thanks so much for your hummingbird food tips!
😂❤
Glad you enjoyed the vidoe!
