    If they don't like it, they don't have to watch. I believe in creativity and if drawers inspire you, get it girl! Creating things are from found pieces that you patchwork together is inspiring!

    Thank you so much for calling out those making negative comments. If we could all disagree in a more respectful manner the world would be a much better place right now. I just don’t understand at all how it makes someone feel good about their day to slam someone on social media. If we spent this energy building each other up instead of putting people down we could do great things! Your channel is awesome, very upbeat and inspiring! Thanks for sharing your secrets!

    I just caught myself in the mirror smiling, while I was watching your video. This one is definitely good from start to finish! It ends up with all your smiling, handcrafted, little angels telling everyone: "Follow Your Dreams". And watching you and Ellie with her band, I realized how important that is! Thank You from the bottom of my heart ! 💜

    Debi I’m 50 as well, and I went through a time where I quit helping people and sharing with people because I was tired of feeling used and abused lol and unappreciated. But I was very successful then. More than I am now. I’m not even at all successful. When I realized that my friend was just having so many wonderful things happen to her, I realized it was because she shared so much of her self and her things. Like I used to. I started opening myself up again and becoming vulnerable again and sharing myself again , like my Things and favorite places. Now I feel my world is getting right again. We just have to remember that there is more happiness in giving than receiving like the Bible says. And also God loves a cheerful giver. And it is so true. ❤❤❤❤

    You are the most creative person on UA-cam and save so much from filling landfills! Commenters seem to believe that they need to police the creators but often come off like they scolded someone who needed to put in their place! This is too pervasive in our culture today it is a form of hatefulness! I get that they have strong opinions and judgments but this is not the place to air them! I am here to enjoy connecting and appreciating with this wonderful family and friends!

    Debi, you and this channel are such a delight!!! Your response on the negative comments was warranted and to top it off, you did it in a respectful manner! Sharing an opinion is one thing but the trend of keyboard rudeness is another and should be addressed of which you did very eloquently. That stuff is FREE to everyone for the taking on a first come first serve basis and you shouldn't be made to feel bad about a garbage haul...seriously. Thank you for bringing your continued creativity to us all. I for one look forward to your videos and am very grateful, keep up the good work!!!

    Debi… dear girl, you are not a villain ! ALL those people who had so much fun chastising you are like the CLAN who watch that abominable show “The View”…..according to some people you are “damned if you do and damned if you don’t” ‼️ these naysayers are not worth an answer back, yay or nay. Seriously. I am a very considerate person and one day, just in one day, I learned how to deal with stupidity. Someone was behind me in a checkout line in a store. She started a conversation with me and then started saying negative things about someone I think highly of. I turned and walked off as she was talking trash and felt SO GOOD that I had the courage to JUST WALK AWAY. That’s how I learned to WIN. You really cannot hurt someone people’s feelings, and we don’t OWE ANYONE an explanation. I love these videos….don’t let them upset you. You win.

    A hard fact is that over 12,000,000 tons of furniture gets thrown out every year in our country . I commend 👏 you for up-cycling those drawers because the likeliness of them ending up in landfill was pretty high. It has been a weird week full of judgment of all varieties. No We don't have to agree on everything respect and love is more important now than ever. ❤

    All I can say is you better take all four of those table legs..! I don't think I gave you grief about the desk and drawers... Because I figure it could have still been rescued.
    But what I really dig is that you and I have similar tastes in shoes, clothes, colorful cool things. My sister is about the only person I shop with and she has great taste, but not "wild" and visibly excited like me (and you if may say so).. I feel like flying to San Diego to shop... Better to take the big truck and drive.

      Most of our content is free. Elle and I spend at least 30 hours a week each making these free videos. The membership group that is only five dollars a month helps me pay Elle to edit the videos. Before I was able to hire Ellie And I had to do all the work by myself. I was lucky if I got a free UA-cam video out once a month. there is nothing I love more than making these free videos for you, truly! But please understand that we all have bills to pay❤ and the membership group helps us a lot!

I love your idea for just using the angel head and wings to make ornaments, so cute!! I don't know how anyone who watches your videos can be negative, you are always uplifting and creative!

    So many people just aren't happy unless they have something to complain about (my mom has always said this) I get so much hate because I'm a reseller and apparently I take all the good stuff from the thrift store for profit when other people could buy the items. What these people don't get is the amount of stuff that goes through a thrift and the amount that goes straight to the dumpsters because they have so much more than they can put out for sale. It's a neverending argument that I'm so over trying to prove my point. Just do what you do and make decisions that are best for you and your business because in the end you're the one who takes care of yourself, your family and your business ❤❤❤

    Our Red, White & Blue thrift store here is seriously overpriced, and has very little worth buying. I have tried it many times and come away empty-handed. I'm so happy you have had a different experience there! It's becoming increasingly difficult to find a good thrift! You must have a larger population there, near San Diego. Take care and have fun!
