    Thank you for always so graciously having us in your lovely home. I don’t think you would ever have to buy anything “new” to have us loving your decor style. I truly believe you have the ability to reinvent your items over and over, it is truly one of your gifts, and I’m happily here for it. 😊

    How blessed I was when you popped up last week as a suggested video to watch. Your home is warm, loving and a happy domain that we in America have seemed to have lost somewhere along the journey we are living. So sad for the children and their children, not ever knowing the charm life has to offer. You have curated your home thru time, which of course requires patience that many do not have, let alone understand that you have invested a near life time to own all that you have acquired. I know God provides, Lord knows I know for I pay deeply in storage fees to hold my lovelies. I am 66 and I too have seem to have lost my way as to why even bother to display my gifts that my two special dads, who are there to watch over me and guide me, gave to me because they love and cherish me as they do all the millions of other children they deeply care for and love. Thank you so much for breaking your thought process down in your few captured words of home and the security it should bring to us. I know our dads will continue to watch over you and bless you for you choose to share the love of you passions. Thank you for sharing your beautiful visions with me. You make us feel so special and for that I tell you I love welcoming you into my life. I so look forward to seeing the caption scroll across the top of my screen a, new video is available to watch.

    Deena, I love everything you did here in this video today. I'm a big fan of the silver pieces (bright or tarnished) I have PLENTY of candles but I don't burn them, may start. I also have a large candle warmer that I love. Decorating is a lot of hard work but so worth it, it's my passion. I have a large collection of roosters from my late mother and I love them. Everyone needs a hobby, something to keep our minds and hands busy. Love you girl and all that you do for us, your subscribers. Can't wait for more talent from you.

I love rosters too, so French country in my opinion. Thank you so much for being here today. Have a wonderful evening.

    Hi Deena this video is so inspiring! Really appreciate your efforts. We know it’s not easy to make videos. As you know I love your style! Nothing trendy about your style. Just elegant and classic. Your silver collection and candle sticks are stunning! Is the cabinet that you styled a new piece? It’s the perfect size to display so many treasures. I remember when you restored the wood buffet. It’s just beautiful! I love an easy craft. I’ve never decoupaged. I think I can do it after watching you. Thanks friend. -Robin

      @gracefulliving_  9 днів тому

      Hello there. Awww, I’m so glad you found some inspiration from this one. No, it is not the easiest task but so worth the effort for each of you. No, I am definitely not the trendy one. I think they come dnd go to fast to keep up with. Lol. I’m too old for that. Thank you. I love both the silver and candle sticks. I am always on the hunt for more. 😬 the cabinet? Maybe you’re speaking of the small shelf, no it’s been here for years. It just gives me more space to decorate. That buffet is so pretty and I love it in this space. Oh, the decoupaged pears are so sweet. I’m so glad I found more to do the same. So much more my style now. Thank you so much for being here today. Have a wonderful day.

      Oh Dottie, I am so incredibly sorry. I cannot begin to imagine the grief. Please take your time and minister to you. That is such a long beautiful story…please give yourself grace and know that it is ok not to be ok. It’s ok to still have a struggle. No one else has a heart full of the beautiful memories you do. So please take as long as you need. I will be praying for you. In Jesus name, I pray He brings you the comfort only He can. May He speak peace into your heart, mind, and soul.

    So beautiful! I absolutely love what you have done! All of layers and textures you've combine with the wicker, books, candles, and vintage silver pieces come together so beautifully. I also love all of the black and pops of color with the moss and greens. Thanks for the great tutorial! You mentioned painting the hen with baking soda and paint, adding moss and then sealing. Do you happen to have a tutorial for that piece or something similar? I have a ceramic bunny that I bought and it has that same look to it. I would love to create that look on a few other pieces. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home with all of us! I hope you have a wonderful week. ❤

I am sure you’ll find just what you want and it will be perfect. Have fun looking. Thanks so much for being here this morning. Have a wonderful day.

    Loved everything, Deena especially the painted topiary. I have one. I got a few years back at a thrift store and did not know what to do with it, but I did not want all the colors in my kitchen. Now, you have given me an idea. Painting project soon to happen. Thank you for another beautiful video. Have a blessed day.

      I also have one of these topiaries from my late mother-in-law. I need to get it out and paint it too. Do you need to rough up the surface first, it's a glossy finish?

    • @gracefulliving_
      @gracefulliving_  8 днів тому

      Oh, wow! No, I didn’t rough it up at all. But, I am not the best crafter. I do things in a hurry. Lol. But, I’ve never had anything scratch or chip off yet so I guess that’s a good thing. Have fun!! And, have a great weekend.

    Good afternoon Deena! Love your beautiful styling with thrifted finds! Each vignette speaks to the beauty of nature! The candlelight brings a calming and soothing effect. To protect your glass tops and gorgeous buffet from scratches, have you ever considered felt pads? Just a tip! I use them and it really helps. Thank you for the pear tutorial! 💕

    • @gracefulliving_
      @gracefulliving_  10 днів тому +1

      Good afternoon! Awww, thank you. I love finding things at the thrift store for so many reasons. Awww, thank you for your sweet compliment. Yes, I totally agree about the candle light. Yes, I do have pads on somethings but not all. But, that is an amazing tip! I really want to get rid of my tables and go with something more my style. These were my parent’s tables, well, the dining table is mine but the others are theirs. You are so welcome for the tutorial. Thank you for being here to watch. Have a wonderful evening.

    Good Morning Deena, Thank you so much for your videos. I too have felt a bit stuck and just pretty slow at getting Christmas decor packed away. You are so gifted in your decorating and such an inspiration. As you pick up and bring home things people no longer want and don’t feel they need anymore, you take and begin to work on them and make something so beautiful. It so reminds me of how our Lord takes us just as we are, and begins a work on our heart that transforms us into something beautiful. Thank you so much again for posting. I hope you have a beautiful day. ❤

I feel like I’m in such a rut when the holiday is over. I really struggle for a minute. Yes! Amen. We are so much like the story of a goodwill find. I’m so thankful He has reached for us and given us new life.

I have some vintage music wrapping paper and I am going to use your idea. I also love the pears. I have been on the lookout for pears ever since you showed us the pear in your last video. I do come across bags of fruit at my local thrift stores, so I will definitely be buying them. You are very creative with every thing that you do. Love all of your ideas. Will be incorporating a lot of them into my own home. Thanks again for sharing.

I like how you added other gold candle sticks with them on the dining room table. I would like to try covering some of the pears. Where did you purchase the pears and paper you used to cover them? As always you have inspired me!!! Looking forward to next week😍 Have a blessed week🙏

I do like all of them together, for sure. Oh, yes! Try the pear. They really are too cute for words. The pears I have came from Joann Fabrics but I think you can find them lots of places. The paper is from hobby lobby. I know they have pears too. Aww, I love that you feel inspired. Thank you for being here. Have a wonderful weekend.

    Oh Deena, l am always impressed at the creative way you use unique things in an unexpected way. It was all so inspiring, but the minute you started on the buffet and placed that basket of greenery, l thought Wow, that looks just like a garden!! Against the dark wall and boxwood wreaths it was perfect. Then you added the bird finials!! It was like an indoor version of the birdie sanctuary outside. Love it so much. My Spring vision is brewing. Thank you for all your hard work for us. Please know that we appreciate you.

    Now, your decor was just what I needed today. As I struggle to put away my cozy, understated vintage Christmas. You know I adore your style. It is very much like mine. I have so many beautiful pieces similar to yours that you have shown today. Now I’m all excited and ready to restyle them. You are inspiration my friend. Thank you! Have a great rest of your week. 💗

    I often struggle after Christmas too but surprisingly I started and my husband who was lounging nearby gave a couple of suggestions and voila the room came together. In fact we agreed its one of the nicest displays I have done.
    So we all have our moments where are creative juices wane but it's amazing the beauty we can create out of that creative drought .

I don’t think there’s anything more cozy romantic homie all the good adjectives. The smallest detail makes the biggest impact I do believe I so enjoy your videos. It gets my head in my brain to thinking I love to go to a good thrift store, antique store and of course occasionally Hobby lobby. Well y’all enjoy the rest of the week there is and enjoy your weekend as well hello to all your family. God bless you, sweetie.

    Hi Deena, I was just thinking while rewatching this video., I like watching your decorating whether you use new pieces or not. The way you shop your house and reuse things in different places and in different ways is sufficient, it always turns out really nice. For me, I think it's because I like your "theme." Going out and buying new stuff all the time gets to be too expensive, and a lot of times, it's hard to find this specific type of "theme(the antiques). As always, it turned out really nice, and as soon as I get to the store, im gonna make those pears.

I know I’m not bringing new things to my channel all the time and I know that is so different from the norm, so I worry. Oh, yes! It is so expensive and I really don’t want to find a place to store it all. I try to take a look at Facebook marketplace place each day just in case I find something I can’t pass up because I’d look and price. Thank you again for being here this morning.

    Sweet Deena, you do such a spectacular job on your home decor. I love that you use mostly things you already have. You have an eye for unique pieces and use them in very creative ways. I think you could make a cozy home out of any place you would live. It is crazy cold here in South Texas with snow all over the ground. That is very rare. All schools have been closed for a couple of days. My daughter Rebecca and my granddaughter Rachel both work for our local college and they have been off for six days now. They are happy for the unexpected holiday but I’m ready for it to warm up a little bit. Thank you for another great video. I think you said recently that you were cooking that much lately. I used to love to see what you were cooking. I made a beef stew and a pan of cornbread yesterday and it was so good in this weather. Love in Christ to you my friend

      Good morning! ☀️
      Thank you, Donna. You’re always so kind. I do love using what I already have and I’ve really enjoyed taking little trips to goodwill as well. So many little finds here and there.
      Oh, goodness, so many have been bombarded with such heavy snow. I’m so sorry. I pray everyone stays safe and all is well in the end.
      The fires here have finally calmed down.
      Thank you so much for being here this morning. Have a wonderful day.

    The shelf looks fantastic but it’s so dark . Have you thought about adding some lights?

      Thank you!
      It is soooo dark. I have paint chips here at the house but when I got home I noticed they’re all the same color as my decor. Not sure that will help. Lol. I have thought of lights but need to figure out how to do that without them showing. Maybe little spot lights or something?
      You put a fire in me today. I need to figure this out for sure. Thanks for watching. Have a wonderful day.

      Awww, welcome! I’m so glad you found me and decided to take a look. Thank you! The metal decor came from Ross of all places. Sorry, I wish I could offer you a link but I found them about 15 years ago. Thanks again for watching. I hope to hear from you again. Have a wonderful weekend.

      I will definitely try. If it’s the one on the counter near the sink. I used a couple different shades of greens mixed in with baking soda. I don’t ever measure. I just make a thicker paste of it. It covers so well and I love the texture it brings. I hope that helps. I try to fit in a quick diy again next video. Thank you for being here this morning. Have a wonderful day.

    since you like candles as I do, I have a qstn. do you notice issues with soot after burning them through the season? I had a winter that I burned often. I noticed dark marbling looking marks on wall near ceiling and mostly on some vertical blinds I have on door wall and large window. I had to take each blade off and clean on floor. It would NOT wipe off. I have been switching over to battery ones but do like occasional real ones. Oh and yes I have used the "soy" cleaner burning ones and I get the same issue. New to your channel. thanks

      Good morning,
      You know, I have in years past and now I try to be very careful as to where I place them for use and I always cut my wicks back. That in itself is a game changer. That will stop your candles from smoking and then causing that soot.
      I try to make sure they aren’t too close to a wall or any type of cover in order to avoid that. Or I am sure not to leave them too long. I do set a timer if I have something lit that shouldn’t be for long so I don’t forget. I too have considered the battery operated. I just wish they were. Little nicer looking. I love the look of real candles. But, I probably need to make the switch. I would say it might be your wicks are too long but you might be cutting them so I’m really not sure. I’m so sorry. I do appreciate you being here. Thank you for the question. And, thanks so much for taking a look at my channel. I do hope you enjoyed. Have a wonderful day.
