In today's episode I am refinishing 3 second hand projects that came from yard sales, Goodwill, and the curb. First, is a curbside table that gets a fresh and modern look. Second is a totally trashed wooden box that we turn into a high end custom upholstered ottoman. Third we have a very outdated Bob Ross style painting that I give a new look for super cheap!

Heard that hubby used undiluted bleach, which should never be used on wood... bcuz of what happened. It goes below surface & continues degrade the wood.
Fyi - it only takes 4 drops to make safe to drink a quart of water when out in the wildnerness... ie: germ destroying!

Hello Desert DIY,
I’m not to sure if you know that once a month in Glendale, Az they have bulk day. I’ve found soooo many nice stuff. So it’s goes first week of each month. Everyone puts stuff on the curb of their sidewalks that wants to be picked up. You might want to check if other cities do it to. Hopefully this help’s out.
First time watching. You got me hooked when you said the flips were going to someone aged out of foster care. I would love to do that! Amazing!
Cory you are a precious treasure. God bless you for what you do. Everything turned out beautiful, but it always does! I hope your Christmas is wonderful. 🙏🏻❤️🎄
This was an outstanding video, Cory. I was touched by the glimpse into your kind and loving heart. You are a great example for your viewers and Americans in general to follow.
Thanks for your continued support of the young people growing up in the system. This group of youngsters frequently needs a helping hand in order to get started in life. Most people don't know that a huge number of individuals spend their lives in the foster care system. IMO, these youngsters are an invisible and forgotten group in our society.
Kudos to you and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Loved how you finished these projects. Feels good to use something you've been holding onto, doesn't it?
Blessings to you for the good works you do, and to your family for a Merry Christmas & Very Happy, Healthy & Prosperous 2022🎄🎅👼
Thank you Donna! Yes it feels so great to have it done! Merry Christmas and happy new year to you too!
Cory, thank you so much for participating in the Spirit of Christmas collab! I love that you got all the donated furniture for that young Mom and love that your husband is helping you so much right now. Your coffee table/ storage bench is gorgeous! Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🎄🎀🎄
Thank you so much to you and your family for hosting, for being so giving and loving, and for making awesome stuff!!! Merry Christmas
@@DesertDIYo
I love the “oops” section of the paint stores!! I’ve found some of my favorite colors in there.
Just found you on you tube
Sorry I didn't get to say bye in the live chat, for some reason it kicked me out! Thank you all so much for staying and chatting. Merry Christmas!
I love your style. You make it look effortless. Your son is already learning that helping is good. Great example mom and dad.
I really enjoy your work and watching your family grow. You have a unique but practical style that I really like. Kudos to that helpful husband.
Thank you so much Judie
, Everything turned out great.
It is so kind of you to help this certain group of people. Until I found your channel it never occurred to me what happened to children in foster care.
Thanks all you do to help others.
May you and your family have a Blessed Christmas.
Thank you so much Teresa. I think most people don't know that this group of young adults exist in their communities. Most of them won't ever bring up having been in foster care, either (i dont blame them). So I am very happy that I was able to bring them to the light to be cared for! Merry Christmas
It's so awesome to see that your husband so hand's on with your "Love and Commitment" to the Foster Care Ageing Out Program...I know he is proud of you...You both are truly wonderful!!
Love how many pieces you have to donate to the new mom! You've got such a beautiful heart, Cory. You deserve to put those feet up and get a little relaxing in every day! I'm definitely trying that white wax, it looks sooo nice on both pieces. Hope you're having a wonderful holiday 😊
I love the chest..I also played the violin when I was young..my grandpo baught me mine when I was 9 yrs old in "1981" And I still have it 🤗..my mothers adopted parents ,.my grandparents raised me since I was 3 months old..lived with me until god needed them..😢..but I think that is so cool that you play it to😊
My grandma also bought my violin for me. Grandparents like yours and mine are real treasure to have. Even after they are gone, they have given us all we need!
@@DesertDIY Yes.
I tell my husband that they were my mom and dad..I grew up not seeing my parents very often..I thaught my mom was my sister until I was about 8 or 9 yrs old..now for about the last 10-11 yrs I have been closer to my mom n dad.. but they will never replace my grandpo and grandma..I still cry n miss them ..my grandpo left in 1998 and my grandma Xmas Eve of 2006..I'm turning 50 in February..but I still miss them terribly..😢..They both of were from New Mexico..my grandpo didn't even speak English lol
You and your husband are an amazing team! Everything was beautiful!
What a great thing you are doing. Helping kids that age out of the foster care system decorate their homes. That’s such a special thing to do✌️🖖👍
Merry Christmas Cory and family! Love your work and what you do for foster and starting over folks. You are just so humble and blessed.
Thank you Janet
I love the Mexican trunk! It is beautiful! And to be totally honest not only do I enjoy and learn from your videos, I love, love, love the music!
Love the painting! Very kind of you to donate the furniture items and of course your time and effort. Bless you both for that!
Loved the ottoman and table. You have a good husband! Y'all work well together! I always love the music you use, personally, I prefer that kind over all the other music people use on their channels.
Thank you so much for all your compliments!
Love the blue & white ticking used on the chest! Hope the young mom gets her place fully furnished soon.
Thank you!!! Her house will be fully furnished by Christmas although my videos of all the projects will be shown after I have already delivered everything to her.
Love all of your diy.love how you give back to others.in need.you have a kind ❤. Thank you. Merry Christmas 🎄 to you both.
Thank you Mary!!! Merry Christmas
Oh wow, I love the chest!!! I've used the white Bear wax after a painted piece but I've never thought of using it on a bare piece...I have a rustic looking coffee table with matching end tables that I picked up on the curb and that's what my next project will be, thank you for the inspiration 😊... you also did an amazing job on the picture, I love it!!! ❤
Love your projects.. always come out out sooo nice. Yep like the gold knob on that little table. Love the peice made in Mexico love that style work in combination with other styles...like the white wax.. great to see products and how they work. Wow talented lady. I wish I could play an instrument or sing. 😏 love love the trunk.
Thank you so much Lydia! I'm so happy you enjoyed my projects!
That ottoman turned out so great! You are my New Years Eve entertainment 🙂 wishing you and your adorable family a happy, healthy 2022!
I really enjoyed watching your videos. Keep on blessing others coming out of Foster Care. Thank you.❤️
That trunk is absolutely fantastic!! I want it in my home😁❤️. I love that you shared about your grandma and the reason for the fiddle music. Neat to learn some of your backstory. I love Allison Krauss too 😄
Some nice redo’s. I want to thank you for your kind heart. Many other creators have followed your example and are helping those in need. Good job!!!
I love the projects. I also love how your family's love comes through in your videos. I also played violin. My mom loved classical music so I played classical violin. My dad loved bluegrass and so do I and that's what I wanted to play but didn't get to. I love the music in your videos, it reminds me of my dad. ❤
The ottoman looks amazing! Makes me want to find something similar to DIY🙂
Me too I’m already looking 👀
I loved your generosity and that your husband pitches in on your projects!
Thank you! He is a gem!
I really enjoyed the entire video so have subscribed. I especially loved the larger solid wood piece ( foot stool/storage). It turned out exceptionally well. Love everything about it and I also have had difficulties with white wax, in particular Annie Sloan's, yet I like the finish of it. Great idea to lighten up that painting!
Thank you I'm so glad you enjoyed my projects and other videos! I think its important to try different brands for different products. Sometimes a brand could do one product really well and then other products not as well so you end up needing to mix and match supplies with different brands.
I just love your channel, thanks for sharing your gorgeous and creative work. You are a blessing 😻
Loved your new coffee table/ foot rest. We had a table that was large like that with a lid. It was perfect to store the parts for the parts to the whole house vacuum we had in that house. It was a townhouse, and didn’t otherwise have much storage. I love when a project is finished!
Love this! Donating and helping out this young Mom and her family is so awesome! Love your heart and your talent!
You certainly are an Angel. Bless you and your family and the work you are doing.
Beautiful! I love all of your projects.
Thank you Sandra
You are such a thoughtful person and I love What you do for the young women who have aged out of foster care❤️
Absolutely beautiful DIYs great job 👏👏👏👏
I love what you did to that painting with the white wax! What a clever way to repurpose a thrift find!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your work!! With the coffee table I still would have put pads or buffers of some kind in place of feet: and would have used some sort of hydraulic or locking arm hinge for such a heavy cover. Looks amazing!Enjoy! Good luck with baby #2 and God continue to Bless you for your help with the foster care momma & family. 🙏🏼❤️
Oops!! Just got to the part about the soft close safety hinge!!! Sorry for jumping the gun!! 🤣🤣🤣😘
This is so lovely and it's really important for people to know when they're flipping and they're donating they can't put a monetary value on their pieces and that is tax deductible.
It seems things are looking more country rather than glamorous
Absolutely loved the coffe table/ottoman. Such character in that wood!!
Thank you Robin!
Great video! You are such an inspiration and blessing. That big old ottoman turned out amazing. You have got it going girl!
Thank you so much Martha!
That old crate made coffee ottoman 🤩🤩 stunning!!
Beautiful makeovers, Cory. I love your new chest and the painting is so pretty.
Corey, you do such a great job, love all your videos!
Big heart! Bless you and your husband!
I wish more TH-camrs started with the underside like you do. I cringe every time I see others do their reveal and the lower edges are still the original color.
That is so funny that you say that because I was just talking about this with my husband while we were painting one of our next projects.
I love watching you and your husband work together on a project, you’re so good together. 💕💗. The ottoman table turned out so beautiful too.
Hi! You are awesome girl! Your generosity and kindness to help others is so wonderful and inspirational! Just what our world needs more of! And you are so good at it! Truly amazing. 😊🙏 Bravo!!!
Thank you so much Jamie
I love that you are redoing items to help others. It made my heart sing and I know it will make a world of difference for the recipient. Be blessed and keep blessing others.
Your trunk is absolutely beautiful.
That's chest is absolutely amazing. I love everything about it. Also really like the painting overhaul. Thank you so much for your inspiration.
Thank you Abby
Everything looks so pretty!! You always do such a good job Cory!
Thank you so much Kim
Your videos and yalls work makes my heart smile. Thanks for being so kind and real. Merry Christmas to you and yours
That chest is my favorite of all your projects. Great job! Merry Christmas!!!
Way to go Corey. Love the Ottoman. Great seeing the guys helping you out too. Blessings to you all. 🎄💚
Thank you Elise. Merry Christmas
You both do such an excellent job!! I love that you give away so many of your pieces to people in need.. that is very special in my eyes.. God bless you and keep you this Christmas Season🎄🎄
Thank you so much Nancy! Merry Christmas
This was beautifull, love this christmas spirit
Thank you!
Just love watching all your flips! Fabulous AGAIN!! 👏🏼👏🏼❤️🏴
I love that trunk ottoman!!
All turned out beautiful.
Omg I love the chest/ottoman!!! Love the heavy carved pieces from Mexico 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 And I'm sooo trying that white wax!!! Never used before, but definitely need in my life and.... at a much better price than the craft jars 😳 and that's so funny!!! I went to town one day building the tufted ottoman coffee table of my dreams....😍😍😍 , until I realized it could have been our dinning table 😳🤣🤣🤣🤣
If you don't know Jesus as your Lord and Saviour please call on him now. Ask him to forgive your sins and save you. Then live for him and obey him. He loves you and wants you to be a part of God's family. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by him. I love what you did with all the projects. Think my favorite was the little end table. Loved that color. So pretty. And I have to say I think it's awesome that you donate some of your work to others. What a blessing. Really enjoy the interaction of the whole family. This channel really blesses my heart. Thank you for sharing your talent and your precious family. Praying the Lord holds each of you in his hands.
I didn't realize until a couple videos ago (not in chronological order...haha) that this is your and your husband's small business! I thought, oh wow! My husband and I could definitely do this!!! I need to keep watching and learning! Thank you for sharing so much of your life with us! 💚
I think you need to call your 'oops' paint Desert Sand. It seems appropriate...
The chest almost looks like it could have been a shipping crate that someone turned into a piece of furniture. You know, people used to do things like that, because you would never waste good wood. I could be wrong, but I have a chest that was a WWII ammo chest in a former life. My husband was using it as a tool chest for years. When he got ready to upgrade, he asked me if I thought I could use it for anything. Smart man! He knew I would!
I think it is wonderful that you and your husband put all that time into making these pieces over, for someone else. Y'all show the true spirit of giving.
🙂👍💖
Thank you so much for doing this! I adopted an older child from DCF and often think about this population and worry for them. You are such good models for your children of how to be compassionate and generous. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Your a fantastic person!! I’ve been doing furniture redoes probably longer than you are old. 🥴. Try putting silicone in those crazy routed lines they used to put on old furniture. That is if you just want to stain the piece. I don’t have the gumption to work at it like you do anymore but if I keep watching you I might get back into it 😊. Thank you for the videos and your kindness to others.
What a fabulous piece! The one you topped with fabric and used white wax to highlight is amazing. I have always liked how you have a heart for the age-out foster kids. Thanks for sharing your heart and reminding others of the great need they have. It has to make people aware of foster kiddos, and that makes my heart smile. :) Blessings!
All your projects looked great as always. I love that you get the wrinkles out before you upholster your projects. I’ve watched other people do things and leave the wrinkles in and my OCD starts screaming, no no no. I have a nice Rowenta iron somewhere in my house too. And like you, I can’t find it. Is there an iron thief like the sock thief running around?
We get Bob Ross here in Australia on TV, He signs his paintings in red, Ross. I listens to Him when I am anxious and it calm me down he has a sweet soul. I just found you today you're quite calming too. You have inspired me do something like that here I love my hand things with wood.
I loved the oops color, I use oops all the time for projects. The ottoman was fabulous. When I lived in Phoenix ther was a warehouse north of The Point North that had rooms of Mexican furniture, I would spend hours , so beautiful. I have always loved the rustic look.
I want to give back in this same way in my community. I love refinishing furniture, got a truck and a shop, how did you get started? I know a womens shelter non-profit resale shop, could try there.
I'm just so curious how you managed to keep that spray adhesive off your beautiful carpet!
Experience lol
@@DesertDIY ❤️❤️❤️
That spray adhesive is toxic. It should be done outside. Not good to breathe at all!
Cory , I have been watching your videos for a while now, and even though I don’t comment much, I must say that you both are such a blessing to others. You have such a unique and wonderful ministry…you both give of yourselves for others freely. Isn’t that what we are to do…emulate the love of Jesus, so that others see Him through us? Thank you for another great video, and I must say I did see the other video where you painted the other furniture for her and everything turned out awesome! God bless you all!
I’ve just learned about helping foster kids who age out of the system through a friend, so I was thrilled to see all that you do for some of them! God bless you! I hope to be donating items very soon, as well. (Just no diy jobs for me- I’m unable to move around like that anymore!)
We had a similar chest when we lived in Arizona in the 1970's. You do such good work. I love watching your channel.
That is a beautiful clay color. First time watching yall and I'm impressed. Keep up the great work and congrats on the new baby
May I add that perhaps felt or gliders on the feet of the trunk so it doesn’t gauge floors. And maybe a plastic tote for inside so goods stored won’t be snagged. My mother had an ironing board that opened to a square on the pointy end….wish I had snagged that. Look for one while thrifting….the covers were hard to find but I do believe she found one in the Vermont Country Store catalog…..the actual paper one.
Using water is not good for wood. A carpenter once told me, water was the natural enemy for wood. We did use the pressure hose once on our ceiling (made of old wood) to wash off spider webs etc and there is a door, with wooden veneers Stuck on, which got unstuck with the water, kind of bending a bit, and he told us that was the reason! Watch yourselves when it’s the case! 😊😊😊
FYI oops paints are tinted to not be anywhere near the original color ordered. What would stop my friend from going in right after I returned six gallons of premium paint and pay $5 a gallon for it. That being said I got bathroom paint that is usually $40 a gal for $5. I had looked at the marine board for so long that I kinda got used to the color.
What a great idea to tone down that painting. I have several that were painted by my mom, her sister, and their dad. They are all a style very similar to your painting, so now I know how they would look. Thank you for the fabulous tip. I love your videos, your voice is so soothing and your work is always inspiring. 😁
God bless you and your sweet husband for your ministry in helping those in need. Your results are amazing and beautiful. This world needs more people like y’all.
You are inspiring and have encouraged me to also help others. I would like to suggest that your seating trunk have air holes added discretely in case your babies get shut in it. I grew up with a similar size chest my grandfather made. Mom caught us using it for hide and seek before any of use were suffocated among the pillows and blankets
Wow! You really went after it. Your garage should be empty now. All of your projects look amazing.
After a long day at work I enjoy coming home and watching you do your thing. You have no idea how much I need this. Thank you. God bless you
Wow you did a great job on everything but that piece for your front room turned out spectacular. I have to say I was questioning the painting and it turned out great too❣️
So thoughtful and generous cause you have undertaken., Happy to see other taking part in this giving. ♥️♥️
If you are finishing furniture for home with toddlers, maybe rounding sharp corners a bit? And furniture footies/pads for furniture on hard floors especially for renters?
You and your hubby are doing the right thing for sure. The Lord says as you care for the least of His brethren, it is as if you are doing it to Him. So, that’s why you and your hubby are blessed. You’ve got this!
I am doing a 1980's buffet and mixed my colors and it looks just like your color!
It's so nice that your husband helps and supports your generous and loving actions bless you both from
UK
Hi, oh my gosh. I am new here and also grew up with blue grass music! Love the channel. Not fake.
I would’ve gotten a swatch of that paint color and taking it to Home Depot or wherever you got that and find out the paint color because you can’t simply paint something and not tell us what the paint color is
Love the chest... You're so little, when are you due? Merry Christmas to you and your family.
The music which played during the rehab of the Mexican trunk was spot-on.
Your videos are so interesting, and relaxing. Repurposing is one of my favorite things. You are quite talented.
Good luck to you! Great, practical projects and I like your spirit of giving😊
