Oh my gosh..my 2 favorite things...pears and dough bowls. During our move, 2 yrs. ago all my pears were lost..still upsets me, cause I had a basket full of them that I had collected over the years. I still have my dough bowl...love the candles made in them.
I'm so glad you loved the urn project!!! That was so sweet of you to let me know! I had someone say that it was "awful"...after I put all that work into it, so I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate you taking the time to let me know it was your favorite project! OH well....that's people for you, but I'm so thankful that there are BEAUTIFUL people out there like you, Lisa!!! XOXO Have a WONDERFUL weekend and thanks for watching!!!
Hi Robin...once the soy wax as melted away, there's nothing to keep the wicked going. To be on the safe side, however, Kari sprays her bowls with a fire retardant prep spray. Hope that helps answer any cares or concerns. Also as a disclaimer...all manufactures of candles say that a candle should never be left unattended. I mean...I'm sure people know that but I thought I should also include that as a precaution when using candles.
If you haven't used your Annie Sloan paint in a while, flip the can over and let it sit for about half an hour before opening and then stir it. The urn came out great as all of your projects did!
Hi Laura! Thank you for that tip! I have never had a problem with Annie Sloan paint, as a matter of fact, it's my favorite paint...so, I was surprised that even after stirring it up...it still wasn't quite right! Love the tip! Thanks again and thank you for the compliment on the urn and the other projects!!! XOXO Have a GREAT weekend, Laura!!!
Also better after mixed to pour into a bowl or paper plate instead of using out of the can. That way no crusty mess on the cans or stuff that falls into them. Also keeps the contamination out of the cans
I just love these vids!! Thanks for doing all you do! Annie Sloan and “Timmy” Holtz...... love love love it, Kelly. God Bless you and your Mom and the entire group of thrifters/flippers/ flea market flyers!! 🤗🤗🤗
Hi Sally! I'm so glad to hear that you love the videos!!! I really appreciate you letting me know and yes....LOVE Annie Sloan and Tim ("Timmy" HEE HEE) Holtz!!!! Blessings to you too!!! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to share, Sally!!! XOXO You have a BEAUTIFUL weekend!!!
Thank you for sharing which project was your favorite, Margaret!!! I'm so glad you loved the flips!!! Thank you for watching and for taking the time to share! XOXO You have a WONDERFUL weekend!!!
Just a suggestion…leave the IOD stamp on the plastic, condition the entire sheet at once, cut them out on the plastic and they are easier to manage when you add ink or paint.
Vicki...you just brightened my day, too with this wonderful comment!!! I'm so glad you loved what I did in the video and I thank you for watching!!! You're AWESOME, Vicki!!! Have a BEAUTIFUL weekend!!! XOXO
I just LOVE how you paint stuff!!!! When you said - "Be sure you don't cover the whole thing;" I thought - "Yeah, that's hard for me!" I really LOVED what you did with the Pear Bowl, or Tray. NOT SURE WHAT YOU'D CALL IT, but my VERY FAVORITE would have to be the Drawers!!!! The IOD'S and the NUMBERS JUST MADE IT!!!! Thanks Kelly!!!!
Those were some creative ideas. They all turned out sooo good. Loved the box. Has to be my favorite. I bet lots of viewers liked that one. Those stamps are so cool. Definitely have to get them. There so versatile. Can’t wait to order mine. Thanks Sherry for your great videos. Awesome! OXOX ♥️😊👍🌟🌟🌟
@@karibrown3335 Gee Kelly, that’s really nice of you to contact me. Yes, I definitely would love to get those stamps she used in her last video. Could you send me your link or web site or whatever. That way I can put it in my phone. That way I’ll have it n it will be easy for me to order. Thanks again. Shelly ♥️😊👍
Hi Shelly! I see that Kari contacted you here in the comments. Here's the link to her Facebook and she has her number right on the front of her page...so, you can call. I think she even has her email address on their too! Hopefully, she has that stamp! I've had that one for a little while and I was like..."I'm going to finally use this one"! I think it looked AWESOME on the box, but you could stamp anything with it...a painted pail, a wooden sign, etc... It's a great stamp and you're right...it's versatile! I'm so glad you liked the video and that the box was your favorite project!!! Thanks for letting me know! XOXO OH, almost forgot...here is Kari's link: facebook.com/profile.php?id=100083497955451 Have a BEAUTIFUL weekend, Shelly!!! Hope everything is good with you!!! : )
@@FLEAMARKETRESCUE Yes she did n I appreciated that she contacted me. Many thanks for giving me her Facebook info. Gosh, I sure hope I’ll get lucky n she has that stamp. I’ve been looking for something like that n that was perfect. My head is spinning at what I want to use them for. I think everyone loved the box. Even adding those numbers was a great idea. Gee, wish we didn’t live so far apart. But then again we could get into a lot of trouble going to all the thrift stores, Goodwill, Salvation Army n those great antique shops. Ohhh , how much fun we’d have. I can imagine us fighting over the same thing n laughing our heads off about it….. hahaha. You too friend, have a beautiful n maybe a little magical weekend. OXOX ♥️😊👍♥️
Love the gray box with drawers, the white stamped flowers really make it. Saw your mom and Debbie at Salvation Army in Washington yesterday (3/22) but didn't see you.
Hi Kathleen....OH, you should have said, "Hi" to them...they would have LOVED it!!! No, I didn't go with them that day...I had to stay back and work on projects for my video! Looks like I missed all the fun! Hopefully, you were able to find some great stuff that day! I'm so glad to hear that you loved the gray box with drawers projects!!! Thanks for watching and for sharing, Kathleen!!! XOXO Have a WONDERFUL weekend!!!
I like a satin or flat finish. I've been around for almost 70 years and what goes out comes back but for now, I agree with you! Too much gloss makes it look cheap. Thanks for sharing!
As always I loved each project. I have several of those urns. I used them at Christmas to put trees in them. I used your painting method that you did on those 3 urns. Turned out great!
That's WONDERFUL! I'm so glad to hear that your urns came out great!!! Doesn't it make a BIG difference to paint them?!?! It just makes them more expensive looking and I love that you put trees in yours! I bet they look BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for sharing and for watching, Pamela!!! XOXO
Hello again, i've been binge watching your videos this makes either 5 or 6 & i should be sleeping but it's hard when you're having fun. I'm curios do you know when using your playlist it starts with the oldest first. I thought you'd like to know they're normal newest 2 oldest. Tks for sharing
Oh Kelly! I absolutely adore you! Your precise measuring skills on the numbers reminds me of me! 😂 I’ll extend my arm and “mark” how Long something is, then shove myself into the space to see if my arm measurement fits! I consider it an improvement over moving stuff then finding out NOPE! 😅 I love your new brushes, but old ones are like jeans, perfectly broke in and done shedding!! Fabulous projects again!
I adore you, too Kelli!!!! Yep...that's how we measure! (Fist bump!) HEE HEE I'm so glad that you enjoyed the projects!!! Hey, I really wanted to message you back on the last comment but I got soooo busy with everything. So, you're not working at your job anymore, huh??? You know what that means....more time for projects and thrifting!!! HEE HEE No, seriously...I truly believe when one door closes...another one...a BETTER one...will open!!! I've had this happen many times throughout my life....now I trust the process! I would be so comfortable at a job and then there would be a boss or something that was just unbearable and I thought...WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?!?!?! I couldn't understand it!!! I'm comfortable here...I make decent money...why?!?!? URgHhhh! It's God's way of pushing you out and in the direction, you were meant to go. In those instances...I would land another job and make WAY MORE money and it wasn't later that I would realize why it all happened. It was because God had something better in store for me and it was for me to make a better living than what I was settling for. I was so comfortable I would have NEVER left and never lived up to what I could potentially do or possibly have. You're going to be fine and God just has something better in store for you, Kelli!!! And, yes...I agree....freedom is a BEAUTIFUL thing!!! Hugs and High Fives!!! Have a BEAUTIFUL weekend, Kelli!!! XOXO
Sherry, love every project....but my fav is the drawer box....it turned out great ! Also, I didn't know you could use paint with the iod stamps....thanks so much for that tip !!! Oh, I have enjoyed using my bunny and bird wood cut outs....they turned out great in my spring projects !
Thank you, Linda!!! I'm so happy to hear that thought the projects were AWESOME!!! I really appreciate the WONDERFUL compliment and thank you for watching!!! XOXO You have a WONDERFUL weekend, Linda!!!
I loved this video. Question...I went into Kari Shaeffer's website, but I couldn't figure out how to get to where you can purchase her items. One took me to Facebook and a site listed on her face book to me to a video on Facebook. How do you get to the website where she sells the items?
Hi Wendy! I contacted her and told her that people were trying to get a hold of her to purchase items and her website is not quite ready, although there was a link. She has since updated her Facebook page and included her number for people to call. She has her email on there, as well...if you'd like to contact her by email. Here's the link to her Facebook page again, so that you can call her or email her: facebook.com/profile.php?id=100083497955451
If you're using a chalk paint...no need to sand!!! Chalk paint goes on any surface without prepping it! The only thing you need to do though is to seal the outside of your pot with either a poly urethane, wax, or a clear coat. That way you won't have to worry about the finish getting damaged. Hope that helps!!!
So very talented! I love everything you up cycle 💚! If you’re ever in Iowa, would love to thrift with you, Debbie, and your Mom! You always have so much fun!
AwHHH!!! Thank you so much!!! You are so sweet! I'm so glad to hear that you love all my upcycles and what a sweet compliment!!! Yes, we really do have fun when we go out thrifting!!! Well, if we ever make it to Iowa....you never know! HEE HEE Anyway, thanks again for watching and for the incredibly sweet comment!!! Have a WONDERFUL weekend!!! XOXO
It depends...if you bought some balls cheap enough at a garage sale or at a thrift store you could add them in and ask a little more for the dough bowl, however, people may have their own ideas of what they want to do with it, so it could be sold alone and you still could get a really good price for it!
I love working with the chippy brushes...I know they aren't the expensive brushes but they are my favorite! Thank you for the WONDERFUL compliment on the projects! I really appreciate it and I'm so glad you enjoyed them!!! You have a WONDERFUL weekend!!! XOXO
Hi ThatGirl Irish, I'm Kari Shafer who's candles she shared in thr video. Once the soy wax as melted away, there's nothing to keep the wicked going. However, to be on the safe side, I Spray my bowls with a fire retardant prep spray. Disclaimer time, just like any candle, you should never leave it unattended. 😊
Wow always wanted to try Annie Sloan but I must say I wasn’t impressed with that coverage. Think I’ll stick to my inexpensive Waverly. Great projects though.
Becky...Annie Sloan's paint is normally not like that....it was just a very weird can of paint. I kept stirring and stirring and it just didn't have the right consistency. I don't know what was up with that but normally Annie Sloan's paint covers in one coat and is not glazy like that. It was pretty surprising to me but I was already into the the project....so, I had to go with it. I still love Annie Sloan paint despite the issue I was having with this particular can.
Annie Sloan is always very thick everything settles to the bottom and you should always turn upside down for at least 30-60 minutes then stir well. Also a chip brush is not good for painting. Inexpensive Wooster 5.00 gives a great finish without the brush marks and less coats
Hey Kelly….I texted the lady from the shop that was closing down the day you posted that video. I listed the items that I was interested in but the owner never got back with me. Do you know if she’s gone now?
Hhhhmm...you know someone told me that she got so many calls...she ended up taking her page down for two days and she was very overwhelmed. Also, I heard from someone else here in the comments that the building sold and she needed to take a break until the end of the month but that she would be opening back up in April to finish selling the rest of the stuff. I'm going to reach out to her and make sure she's ok and see what exactly is going on. Ok? I would try to get back in touch with her in a week or two, though...chances are the things you were interested in will still be there and everything will be calmed down by then. You know? And, I'm really sorry to hear that you had trouble getting in touch with her!!! Like I said, I'm going to reach out to her and see what's going on.
Oh my gosh..my 2 favorite things...pears and dough bowls. During our move, 2 yrs. ago all my pears were lost..still upsets me, cause I had a basket full of them that I had collected over the years. I still have my dough bowl...love the candles made in them.

You crack me up with your slap dash techniques, and yet still manage to get such great results. You have become my favourite UA-camr. Great job! 😃
Dough Bowl is a must have!!
Love your style too my new friend Carrie 😍 ❤️
I’m with your mom! Who doesn’t like fake produce??!!😂
Happy Thankful Thursday

Seems like it would be easier to paint if you took the drawers out and then painted everything.
Great channel. Great talent. Should be on Cable!
I absolutely love your UA-cam channel!❤
The chest you just painted is from IKEA. I have two of them and use them for tea.
You make Thursdays great. I appreciate your ideas and that you don't need a studio to work in. You just get it done. Love that you include mom.
Great video 👌 great projects too ! Love your channel ❤
Just love ur channel. I'm learning so much. I have drawers like the ones u made over. I'm going 2 try it. Thx so much!!!
Making wood bowls into a candle sounds like a 100% fire hazard 😮 🔥

Love that urn.
Love the "KELLY TOUCH" with each project!
Thank you, Carol!!! You're the BEST!!! XOXO Have a WONDERFUL weekend!!! : )
You might try sanding the stamps all a once by turning over the whole plastic sheet. I also used "StasOn ink pad to ink all the flowers.
I LOVE and look forward to Thursdays because of your videos!

Great makeovers!! The M-15 yard sales are on May 6 this year. May be worth checking out with the gals 😊
Thanks for the info! I never knew about the M-15 sale 😮. I posted it on our Nextdoor Neighborhood.
When will you be opening your new shop? We are in Tawas and want to do a road trip.
I love all your videos! Question: do the dough bowl candles scare you? I’m terrified that I’d leave one burning and end up burning my house down! 😱
I'm a bit new to the painting/crafting thing. Do you ever prime the surface before painting? Wasn't sure if that would help use less coats of paint.
Kelly, the projects are awesome. You are so meticulous in your craft.
Thank you, Linda!!! I'm so happy to hear that thought the projects were AWESOME!!! I really appreciate the WONDERFUL compliment and thank you for watching!!! XOXO You have a WONDERFUL weekend, Linda!!!

Is farmhouse style still popular in your area? I don’t find that it is in mine.
To sell the bread bowl, would you sell it alone or price it with all the staging?
It depends...if you bought some balls cheap enough at a garage sale or at a thrift store you could add them in and ask a little more for the dough bowl, however, people may have their own ideas of what they want to do with it, so it could be sold alone and you still could get a really good price for it!
Being like your mom can sometimes be a good thing. LOL
I am pretty sure you need a better brush, the chippy brush is not great for coverage 🤪 Your projects are stunning!!!
I love working with the chippy brushes...I know they aren't the expensive brushes but they are my favorite! Thank you for the WONDERFUL compliment on the projects! I really appreciate it and I'm so glad you enjoyed them!!! You have a WONDERFUL weekend!!! XOXO
Because it was shiny;probably should of sanded it first.
Won’t burning the candles in the wooden bowls burn/damage them once the wax & wicks melt down??
Hi ThatGirl Irish, I'm Kari Shafer who's candles she shared in thr video. Once the soy wax as melted away, there's nothing to keep the wicked going. However, to be on the safe side, I Spray my bowls with a fire retardant prep spray. Disclaimer time, just like any candle, you should never leave it unattended. 😊
Might have help if you sanded the glaze off or used a de-glazer of some sort!

Why is that Annie Sloan paint so watery? Isnt chalk paint thicker? Something wasnt right.
Why didn't you do the taller flower longer instead of doing the numbers too .
Goodness girl, stir your paints well before use. It is frustrating to watch. Annie will be pulling her hair out lol!
Maybe shake the can real well before opening…
