I got a chuckle when you said you must be getting old because you’re so attracted to glassware. Me too! I’ve said the same thing. I used to roll my eyes at Mother for thrifting so much of it. Great projects today!
Janey Jane Dee That's too funny. I'm 72 and started collecting milkglass about 5 years ago. Recently while dusting a number of these pieces I had to give my head a shake!! WHY am I collecting this stuff. My daughters don't want it. So I stopped. Somehow a weight has been lifted! LOLOL At my age, I'm supposed to be purging, not collecting! Have a great rest of your day!
@@cheryl8280 Minimalism has really help me‼️‼️… still need to do more and MUCH EASIER TO CLEAN AND DEAL WITH… after I had done a real decluttering, I dusted one day and got through pretty quickly and it was like… “what do I do now”😂🤣😂🤣I LOVE THE LESS STRESS OF SOOO MUCH STUFF … and more room I’ve heard it called “real estate”… like that wording 👍🏻😁no coffee table etc …I’m 73…👍🏻 AWESOME DAY TO YOU👏🏻😁‼️
Mary, I must admit I was skeptical about painting the chair, but it turned out beautifully. As did all your projects. Sorry I doubted you! You never disappoint!
I'm so glad that you show some of your items that you sell on your etsy shop, from time to time, because I forget to look on there! Great trash to treasure items!!!
The way you paused to acknowledge the bird’s singing while you work is just one of the many reasons I love your channel. The projects are awesome. Thank you. 😊
Love hearing the birds and all, very soothing. My brother calls me from Georgia every night, I can hear all the birds singing in the background, sounds wonderful. All your items turned out so pretty. The chair, I was kinda scared when you started but turned out very pretty. Thank you. Spring is here now, April 2023 🐦🦋🐝🌺
I love glassware too! I often think maybe I was born in the wrong century! I love all the dishes from the 19th century! Love all your ideas and makeovers!
I think the older styles are just back in full force. I love everything vintage and as my man would call "grandma style". Its just so charming when done right. I'm not good at putting it all together yet, but I'm getting there. God bless!
You do such incredible transformations on your projects! Mary, God has gifted you immeasurably! Everything you did today is SO lovely! And I never get tired of the newspaper wallpaper that you use…very complimentary for different pieces! God bless you and family…with ALL that He has for you… Love you…
All I can say is WOW! You never cease to amaze me that you can turn thrift store finds into such amazing pieces. I am always waiting to see what you come up with next. Thanks for sharing. You are such an inspiration.
Mary I found your tutorial by accident and now I am hooked! I do a lot of crafting & have been watching Christmas tutorials for months. That was the tutorial of yours that I saw! I’ve gone back & watched all of yours. You are so enjoyable to watch & are so real. Your life , family and home are all beautiful. I am amazed at the things that you make over. This vinyl chair turned out so pretty & I would never have thought to paint it. I painted an upholstered chair once with Annie Sloan paint & was surprised at how good it looked. I love everything about you & can’t wait to see more videos! I have grandsons about your two sons who are still at home ages. I can’t imagine them being in their mom’s videos. You’ve done the important things in life well and I wish you continued success!
That was the cleanest, neatest op shop I’ve ever seen! Good to see you’ve restocked your disposable gloves again. The chair turned out better than I thought it would.
Hi Mary - That “sad looking” chest turned out so pretty. All it needed was a little love from you! Everything turned out really pretty. Great job and great finds! 💕
Wow!! Everything is fabulous. I must admit, I wasn’t too sure about the chair but it turned out just beautiful!! You certainly have a knack for being very creative!!! What a gift!!!!
I was so excited when I saw that you bought the metal table. As a professional interior decorator and furniture designer myself, I couldn't help but tell my husband, "I hope she puts a wooden bottom shelf on it." And sure enough, you did. BEAUTIFUL JOB!! ❤️ Oh, and I actually have 2 of those same barrel-back chairs I picked up a couple years ago. LOVE THEM!
Wow. I never expected an upholstered chair could be changed so dramatically. Well done! My favorite of all was the metal desk. I would have loved to have seen the top covered with the same wood as the bottom shelf. The wood was so beautiful. My little girl’s favorite was the tray.💜
I loved the Mission statement of that first thrift store. Nice to know your shopping is going to such a good cause. I look forward to your videos each week. Thanks for sharing the sounds of the birds.
THANK YOU Mary I enjoyed our trip out , and what lovely things you bought , even better after you enhansed them , i loved the fit of the wood for the stand table so satisfying , take care
Love the punch bowl cups turned into candles. I have seen these turning up at thrift stores, too. I love the addition of the wood tops and shelf to you finds. Will have to remember that!
Mary,you have such a creative eye.Whenever you pick out something,you know exactly what you are going to do with it .I enjoyed watching you recreate these thrift store finds,they all came out lovely!
Have I told you lately how amazing you are? It amazes me that you can spray paint a soft chair like that and sit on it and not crack it. Just blows my mind. The candles are amazing too. Goodness it's all amazing!
Hi, Mary. I really enjoyed the trip to the thrift store. I'm reasonably sure I've never seen a cleaner, more organized thrift store. My parents collected glassware, so I kind of lean in that direction as well. Young people today don't seem to be interested in that sort of thing--no pretty dishes, crystal or silverware--sad--loss of an era. Loved to hear the birds singing.
I love how everything turned out, but my absolute favorite is the chair….. you should keep it, it’s perfect for your home! Thank you for the ideas, God bless 🙏
Everything turned out absolutely stunning!! I loved all the transformations, it's incredible what you did!! You definitely are such an inspiration to us all with your talents and sharing what you do! Thanks again and keep them coming!!!
That chair looks so nice painted white, I would like to know how that paint holds up on the seat if you sit on it often. I have a similar chair and I would not think of painting it simply because I would think the paint would crack on the seat. This would be a good question to answer on one of your videos
These are definitely my favorites. I do love taking something old and discarded and making it pleasing and useful. I've been doing the same at home. There is such a great feeling of accomplishment. When you tell someone you only have under $10 in a functional coatrack or table it gets the "wow" factor.
Mary you just bring everything you touch back to life and looks so much better!! I Love the chair never ever thought about painting it great idea!! ❤️❤️
Greetings Mary, first I'm so impressed 😯 how you turn out what you bought! 👏👏👏👏 Wow it's awesome, beautiful, delicate etc! The Almighty has really blessed you!😊❤️ I have learned a lot from you, a hard working beautiful lady and very intelligent! Thank you for sharing all your talents, tips to all of us! Congratulations 🎊👍 and God Bless you! Big hug 🤗
That chair transformation was amazing. Who would have thought you could take an old hotel room looking chair and turn it into that "tres chic" chair? You would of course! I think it looks awesome with your decor.
Oh Mary!!!! Another amazing job on EVERYTHING!!!! I have to say that chair is perfect. Especially paired with the black and wood stool and that perfect little foot stool you made before!!!!! 😍🤩😍🤩
WOW!!! Everything looks so BEAUTIFUL!!! I just love everything you do!!😃 I can't wait to see the cottages & the way you will decorate them. Yes, I also love listening to the morning birds sing.❤️ Your cup candles are beautiful! You should also use them for your cottages. Ohh I hope one day I'll be able to go stay in a cottage. Thanks for sharing all of your videos!❤️
Mary, I must say that I like your style! When you said you were going to PAINT the leather look chair, my jaw dropped. However, true to form, I loved the look of it! Bravo, girl!
Love what you did with all your treasure hunt finds. Can’t wait to get news of the cottages being completed. We make 4-6 trips to Berlin a year and we’re hoping to stay in one
I really had doubts about the chair but you pulled it off!! Yay YOU!! Loved the wood you used on the other items. Beautiful grain. You could pour 100 little candles and tuck them into every nook in your shop and they would sell. There are always lots of punch cups at the thrift.
Absolutely brilliant trash to treasure! I literally could watch you all day! Those studs around the chair you didn't like,I think they were upholstery pins side by side,the chair looked great but would also look good I think in a print like the inlay paper for the tray, a pale sage green leaf 🍃 design or something for spring on your porch 😊.
The candles look so sweet in the cut glass cups!!! I never would have thought it possible to paint the upholstery on the chair! Have you ever tried painting fabric upholstered furniture?
I love how the stand/desk turned out! I never thought you could paint outside when the temperature was less than 40 or 50°. Now I know I don’t need to put off projects in the winter. Thank you! The glass tea cups with candles are darling💕
Great job on everything. Loved the way you turned a plain old metal piece into a great looking decorator one. I have a similar utility cart in my garage that I was only going to clean up and paint, but adding the wood was brilliant! Thank you‼️😊 for the great idea.
Never thought of these fairly easy transformations available for us to do. You did such a fine job with showing your process . Thank you. I find it hard to follow too much news now without some positive building as you show going on. Bless you .
I love how all of these pieces turned out! I can’t wait until I get off from work on Wednesday’s to watch your videos. I follow several TH-cam channels and your channel is one of my top ten favorites! I’ve been faithfully watching your channel from the very beginning of your channel! You are so inspiring! I just enjoy watching you work your magic on everything you touch! I’m never disappointed!
Hi Mary everything looks so wonderful that you updated you inspire me lot so now I know what to do with my serving tray and also what to do with glass cups converter into canals for gifts 🎁 Also I didn't know that I could paint a chair that has leather on it great idea I learn something new every time I watch your video thank you Mary God bless you
What a talented family! I wish I had the vision for thrifted items that you have in your little finger! I would have never thought of painting a vinyl chair! Looks pretty enough for a lady’s dressing table. I enjoy every video so much,; creativity, family, nature, kitties, you have it all! 🥰🙌🏻
Oh Mary, the chair just needed polishing. I cried when you painted it white! 1930 classic barrel chair. SNIFF :D
I got a chuckle when you said you must be getting old because you’re so attracted to glassware. Me too! I’ve said the same thing. I used to roll my eyes at Mother for thrifting so much of it. Great projects today!
Me too! People are donating their old glassware; I can’t resist it! 🙀
Janey Jane Dee That's too funny. I'm 72 and started collecting milkglass about 5 years ago. Recently while dusting a number of these pieces I had to give my head a shake!! WHY am I collecting this stuff. My daughters don't want it. So I stopped. Somehow a weight has been lifted! LOLOL At my age, I'm supposed to be purging, not collecting! Have a great rest of your day!
Love the new look you gave these pieces!! You do a great job!!

LOl! Me too! I love glassware who care of their mismatch.
The chair is my favorite piece. I love the way it turned out. I won't be afraid of those nice sturdy pieces now. Thanks for the inspiration.
The socks, though...ADORABLE!
I love how capable you are with all the tools!
Mary, I must admit I was skeptical about painting the chair, but it turned out beautifully. As did all your projects. Sorry I doubted you! You never disappoint!

You are such a smart innovative woman . Love all of the transformations . Beautiful and creative.
Everything was so beautiful Mary! For some reason that metal table spoke to me. Love the wood shelf!
I agree! That shelf just transformed it!
Had a table like that years ago, it was a typewriter table- hence the rounded area for your legs as you sat.
Love your channel, too, Yami!
@@lorrem2539 thank you so much! 🥰🥰
You just amaze me. I literally watch you because your talent and personality brings me joy. Thank you so much. 🤗🤗🤗
The way you paused to acknowledge the bird’s singing while you work is just one of the many reasons I love your channel. The projects are awesome. Thank you. 😊
I personally think the cabinet would look great in a teen girl's room or a business office, so elegant and fancy.
Love hearing the birds and all, very soothing. My brother calls me from Georgia every night, I can hear all the birds singing in the background, sounds wonderful. All your items turned out so pretty. The chair, I was kinda scared when you started but turned out very pretty. Thank you. Spring is here now, April 2023 🐦🦋🐝🌺
Those cups will catch and reflect the candlelight so beautifully!

I think the older styles are just back in full force. I love everything vintage and as my man would call "grandma style". Its just so charming when done right. I'm not good at putting it all together yet, but I'm getting there. God bless!
Punch cups are so common at thrift stores and usually for really good prices! The candles look adorable!!
I will buy a an op shop punch set when I’m entertaining, then donate it back 😊 Saves me having to store it
You do such incredible transformations on your projects! Mary, God has gifted you immeasurably! Everything you did today is SO lovely! And I never get tired of the newspaper wallpaper that you use…very complimentary for different pieces! God bless you and family…with ALL that He has for you… Love you…
Absolutely in love with all these finds and your remarkable ,creative restorations. YOU INSPIRE ME. ❤️❣️💝💕
All I can say is WOW! You never cease to amaze me that you can turn thrift store finds into such amazing pieces. I am always waiting to see what you come up with next. Thanks for sharing. You are such an inspiration.
I just love that you appreciate the nature that surrounds you! The little things like the sound of the birds chirping! Thank you for that ❤️
Mary I absolutly love watching your trash to treasure video's. You inspire me.
Giving well-used items such beautiful new life is a wonderful gift! Your style and creativity is a blessing to watch. Thank you!
All your projects turned out great but that chair is everything!! Just love it.
You outdid yourself, Mary. Everything looks brand new. God Bless.
The storage cabinet and metal table turned out so perfectly! What a transformation! Thanks for sharing your projects!
Mary, you are one of the most industrious women I am familiar with! Love seeing your projects! 💝

But will it last? Ordinary paint on leather?
You are a very talented young woman. Everything you've touched has been a source of inspiration for redesigning thrifted items. God bless you!!
Love your style, love your projects, love your kindness and thoughtfulness! Thank you!
Hi Mary - That “sad looking” chest turned out so pretty. All it needed was a little love from you!
Everything turned out really pretty. Great job and great finds! 💕
That’s a very clean, well organized thrift store. Wish I lived closer.
The metal desk is my favorite. Adding the shelf made a huge difference.
You are very good! I wouldn't have expected the metal "desk" to turn out so beautiful!
Wow!! Everything is fabulous. I must admit, I wasn’t too sure about the chair but it turned out just beautiful!! You certainly have a knack for being very creative!!! What a gift!!!!

Mary your videos are so relaxing and I love seeing how you get so many beautiful pieces done so quickly.
I can’t wait to see the cottages.
I love all thrift very nice peace , love the table very nice peace for kitchen , storage and display beautiful peace tray dishes .
Keep the light. I love it! Soup up that metal stand as a kitchen island. You can add a wooden top. You are so smart!
Well done. My favorite is the little three drawer chest. Or, maybe the metal stand. Or, maybe all of them!

White makes everything look better!!! Love the black and wood shelf, too!!!
The soap is absolutely the set ever…….the scent lingers a long time. So happy 😀
Gutsy on painting the chair!!! Turned out AMAZING!!!

I love how they all turned out. But my favorite is the desk. I love the cups used for candles. Great job Mary!!!
Wonderfully done as usual Mary! You make me want to move from NJ to Ohio just so I can come to your shop!!
That light fixture that you kept the way it was was just lovely. I would have liked to see it hanging in the cottage. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
You are the best- always so organized and so good at explaining what you are doing and why,
I loved the leather chair with nailhead trim ❤️
