      Hiya Angela ,a Brit girl living in Florida here ,l have a question about the Old World digital ,Not being very computer savvy ,is it a video that you show and by “downloading” does that mean it’s saved and put in a “folder” or something to look at when needed,? Also I’m presuming it’s $20 per quarter ,am l right?,l do look forward to your videos as l don’t buy magazines now as my favorites have been discontinued and don’t feel other magazines quench my thirst for my type of decor ,thanks in advance if you get a chance to reply xx

    It’s lovely! I’m always amazed at your ability to transform a modern home into one that looks historic. I’ve tried for years to update and modernize an old farmhouse and have finally decided to embrace the old. And I joined your Old World Design Society. Can’t wait!!

    I have saved two 92 year old French doors, a front door, & an interior door from the remodel of our Tudor Revival cottage for future use. Can't wait to install them into something appropriately nice & cozy.
    You, your time, and your focus are what your children want most to see from you. When they get that, they know what it means. No words are necessary because what you have done says it all.
    Your daughter will always know she has a mother who loves her very dearly - and for many of us who didn't get the kind of heartfelt parental attention you provide your children, nothing could be more gratifying to see.

    An old thick sock/glove/pot holder/cloth placed under each corner makes moving heavy furniture easier for me. I am my own 'handywoman". That green of your hutch is so perfect. You have beautiful tastes and make so many of us happy with your creative projects! Congrats on your new adventure, "Old World". It's a breath of fresh air over the landscape of white or kitchens with stainless steel/all black. When I see them, it triggers a memory of the smell of formaldehyde in high school biology class. Thanks for delivering beauty to us!

    I love your videos and just signed up for Old World! I usually watch the videos on my TV so I dont have a way to “like” them or comment. I went to the app today though! I live in a French Country home that we built 18 years ago and I’m STILL having fun shopping antique stores, flea markets and such for treasures to decorate with. I did the same wall technique in several rooms and still love it although it is not that popular down here in Alabama. I finally got my dream trip of a lifetime to France in 2018 and it was amazing! My only regrets are the things I DIDNT buy at the Paris flea market! I hope to go back one day. Keep sending us your videos and we will keep watching and loving your beautiful family!

    Ive used the mirror paint many times on old windows. A layer of matt black paint at the end helps quite a bit. Ive also dripped water between layers. Patting it up with a sponge at the end right before the black layer, to mimic distressed mirrors.

    • @RsJaneP
      @RsJaneP 3 роки тому

      Yes, I kept thinking that I would have done a distressed, mercury glass look on those doors. I would have also giving the wood parts a bit of pickling...just a wee bit to tone them down. Would still look very French.

    That mirror spray paint can be tricky. All spray paint can be, but regular colors are more forgiving because "fog" isn't an issue. I have found that following the directions to a T are the most important part of the mirror spray paint; temperature, can distance, volume, time between coats, etc. It took me tries on scraps to figure it out.

    Well Done completely changed the mood of the room! The mirror paint is a great tool I use it to paint glass doors in hutches that gives hidden storage and brightens the room. I splatter vinegar water on the glass then use the mirror paint blot off the water then do a coat of flat black gives a mercury glass effect.

    To move awkward or heavy furniture, slip an old blanket underneath, rather evenly if you can, and push the item along keeping the blanket underneath the legs. ( I sometimes move the entire piece by simply pulling on the blanket.). Watch out for really uneven spots on the floor. The item will glide smoothly along. Commercial furniture “gliders” work well too.

My middle son called me "peanut" at that age, we asked why, he said, " Mom calls me honey, so I call her peanut. " Makes sense, food as a name of endearment.😊 I no longer have your energy, if I ever did, but you encourage me in my projects.
