    Good Afternoon Deidre,
    I just woke up from a Sunday afternoon nap and had planned on going for a one mile walk around a civil war fort but it has gotten chilly and it looks like rain is coming. I do not do any house work on Sunday I am getting a new refrigerator on Tuesday and need to prepare my kitchen but, thought first I would find a cool video to watch and I picked this one. I have never seen the outside of your shed before and it is so beautiful! I looked at a house last week goes up for rent on Tuesday tomorrow I am going to the open house. It's very quaint and tiny rent with the option to buy in a year. My rent at my flat we t up very high May and nothing to show for this high rent. Also not allowed to hang anything with nails or molly bolts and I do like to hang things. All my paintings and heavy large framed items are in storage. But, this house has a beautiful little shed in the back yard. There are not any windows in it but if I ever own it my Dad said it's easy enough to put 2 windows in and I would love to flower boxes under the window.
    Anyway, yesterday I went to a block sale and I literally only had 2 five dollar bills and a bag of change and a roll of qtrs for the washing machines where I live. The 3rd house I came to had a FREE box and that's where I found 5 things I could use. I went looking to the sales for 3 of the things I found in the free box. I was so excited as I was not interested in anything else in that yard I gave the seller one of my $5. To me it was worth it and she couldn't believe it. The Bible always says to give a little so that I felt good about. You mentioned in the video and showed your spice rack and I went to the sales looking for some type of light weight shelf I could hang with command hooks on my walls to put my tall sewing machine threads in over my sewing machine but, this gal had a 2 shelf spice rack in a barn wood red. It has chippy paint and a little faded and she said it needs to be repaired I told her I grew up in farm country with old red barns and I may put some Murphy's Oil Soap over it but I am not going to paint it. Now I see how you have put your paint in your's and I am so excited. I have all my small bottles of paint in the top tier of my rolling craft cart and I am going to take those out of my cart and put my paint into the spice rack. I wouldn't be able to get many wide threads in there at all but the paints will all go in with room for close to 3 spaces left. I have Folk Art, Dream Coat and one other brand.
    In the free box were 2 oval brown frames with the glass intact and they are the frames to stand. I saw either on your channel or Sherry's channel where you make serving trays out of frames. Now I know a photo frame does not have tempered glass so you cannot put a hot cup of coffee on it but maybe a small glass of lemonade and a small plate of cookies and a napkin. A couple months ago. I ordered something from an Etsy account and the items came in a 8X11 white bag with black writing and farm animals on the bag. I saved the bag as I liked it to mane do a tea stained effect on it or coffee grounds and use for decopage but, I am going to cut down each side of the bag to frame in the oval frames. The one frame is in better condition than the other so I may add some walnut stain to the one. Around the parameter of the glassi want to go thru my jute string and see if I have a wider rope style And hot glue that down. I think my idea may be cool. I have looked for oval frames for a long time. So check off the spice shelf and the frames. I needed drinking glasses very bad. I had been using jelly jars to drink out of and if my place this summer ever gets nicer inside where I can have people sit in my living room I do not want to serve ice tea in jelly jars. I found one nice heavy tumbler in the free box. My carpal tunnel is so bad right now the tumbler is actually too heavy for me but,it will be nice for someone. Last but not least I did not go looking for a little mirrors but my mom and I have always liked them grouped together in a cluster on a hallway wall maybe catching the light from a bedroom window k think it looks cool. In the free box was a 3 inch round mirror with turquoise blue rhinestones and faux diamonds around the edge of the mirror. Hoping not to be at this flat for very long I haven't hung any of my Mom's or my mirrors but I have one little thin wall area in my foyer that could use a little something. There isn't a hanger on the back so maybe tonight I will go thru my ribbon drawer and find a ribbon to match and hot glue a make shift hanger on top. I think that would look cool.
    I always try to not write a novel but out of excitement I always seem to. I have church friends I see on Sunday, I work with only men at work (I am the only female), I have my Dad, I have my boyfriend but he never comes to my apartment we meet for dinner and I love a bit of a loner life. UA-cam and Instagram. Is my only connection with nice women who come into my home via a cell phone. Thank God for modern tech. Since my Mom passed away I have been very lonely on weekends so these channels full a void and help get my creative juices flowing better.
    Thank you for wonderful videos packed with ideas,
    Rebekah in Virginia

    I love all these they are all gorgeous I love the way you’ve done these and the way they turned out, I also love all your signs. About the only thing I don’t like from all the crafters is the crackle but that’s just me I hated it years ago when it was being used and my mind has never changed. I do like the way the6 turn out when someone has done it though so I’ve never understood why I don’t like it. I think sometimes I’m a strange person lol. I always love everything you do though, you have some really awesome ideas and they always look so good. I can’t wait till I can get lots of bits of wood and make a lot of signs,yours are always so awesome and I love the reversed ones that you do on your printer.
