pregnancy changes everyone I started having a reacaction to a lot of things after I got pregnant the second time
Good point!
Sometimes in a good way, though. I hated avocados and green peppers my entire life until my 2nd pregnancy. I thought it would go away after she was born, but I still love them! :)
Running Through Fast!!!! PAINTS CAN CAUSE possible SEVERE health defects to the unborn. Allegedly' Even hair dye.🙏🏼
OMG…not a drop cloth definitely a pro. I am such a clutz , and along with my puppy always being such a help this just looks like a huge crime scene ready to happen lol. Liked the video and the dining hutch. Green not my color but this color was one I would consider. Very pretty.
Thank you so much! Yes dogs can definitely get into a huge mess with paint!!@
Love your hutch project. What a labor of love! TIP: I use Murphy’s Oil Soap to clean all my brushes. You may not like the scent but definitely a brush saver!
That's a great tip thank you
I love the smell of Murphy's oil soap and it's so good on your skin as well.
🌼🤍 I know how creative you are, yet every time I watch a new makeover I'm still so surprised how beautifully it all comes together. 🤍🌼 You genuinely have a gift for this. Talented, beautiful and humble. What a combination! 🥰💕🤍🌼
Rochelle that was very, very sweet of you to say. It made my day. Thank you so much
That poor hutch was so filthy and now look at it...magnificient! The color is delightful and I'm so glad you left all the marks of life on it instead of making it pristine. The chair literally needed that trim, too like a breath of fresh air. An idea for the corner, maybe a unique table with a photo array? Loved the recipes at the end! 😊 Great video/tutorial as always! Love it!
I love the table idea. And you are so right about the chair.
Hi from across the pond you are a very talented young lady the out come is beautiful well done my dad was a french polisher a lot of the furniture as the cabenet started of he polished the carving on the unit fab on the handles as well i will be watching your created videos loved the viewingthank you so much❤😊
I am not an upholsterer BUT I am a hat maker and trim is one of my favorite things to do. I am always putting trim on something. I did not however know about the fabric hot glue which I will try for sure! 😊
How cool that you are a hat maker. I hope to hear about how your trim turns out 😀
Everything turned out beautiful! All of it looks really good together and it gives the area a comfy cozy homey feel. Awesome job! 😊❤
Thank you so much Pam
I have never even thought about adding trim on furniture, what a great idea! I recently had the idea to add trim to my lamps so these projects will be fun. Thank you also for the fabric glue information. And....the confidence you gave me for the hutch remake, I have had this poor little side table and afraid to attempt the remake, after the hutch...👍
I am so happy to hear all of that Mary! Let me know how they turn out
I am loving the green and blue combination in your house!
Thank you so much Teresa!
I love your style choices in color and classics that last a life time. Also love that you made the recipes at the end. That was sweet to see and you honored the women who owned the hutch. xx
Beautiful job with this makeover. I also like that you have the curtains on one side of each window. Looks greet!! This is my first time watching you. I'll be watching more!!
Putting a lot of effort did reap reward, well done 👏
Everything turned out so beautiful!!! Love the color on the china cabinet. For the chair, another option is removing the skirting if it has nice legs. They are all treasures!!! ❤
Stunning work in your sitting room, Corey. And it looks awesome with the dining room next door. The combination of blue and green is so restful! Well done. And, yes, you need an ottoman in front of the chair. Can't wait to see what you do there.
Thank you so much Dianne. I'm so excited to keep working to finish the room
Your three recycled pieces look absolutely gorgeous! Great job!
The hutch is awesome. The colors remind me of Wedgewood in green, or Lenox in green and white. Just beautiful.
Thank you! Very cool comparison
Amazing you transformation. Love the trim you added to the chair....you now have me looking at all of my furniture in a new way!
I love watching you and your husband recreate. You have such a pleasant voice to listen to. I love the hutch,the color is beautiful. The lamp is lovely! Have a great day!
Hello, I LOVE ❤ the colors of the Hutch. BEAUTIFUL...❤. I think the trim on the chair is a NICE touch. Not too much...and simple enough to do. Thank you for sharing that idea. 😊
Love the hutch.. salmon patties, canned salmon. An egg, little salt, 1 squirt of frenches mustard ( u won't taste it) ¼ grated onion, pinch of flour or cornmeal. Lightly mix . 1 sleeve of crushed saltiness. Make patties into size u like( i make like small hamburger) press each pattie into saltines, this will soak up any liquid. Fry on each side intil golden brown. Ive made these for years. People who wont touch salmon love them. People whove eaten them elsewhere say theyre the best. My husband loves to eat them at room temp.. i hv to agree after trying it. Seems ya dont taste the hot oil as much😋
I just found your channel today and I love your stuff. The green and the blue really pops. I love the chair too. I don’t know how you find the time to paint and make a video with 4 babies and a husband, definitely multitasking. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
Your makeovers are so Elegant while being Homey! Love the look❣️
Thank you!
You have great tips and ideas! I also agree with your philosophy of living in your house, not having it so precious you can't touch anything.
Maybe update the chair using color an pattern ,colorful pillow, not the run of the mill lace etc!!you can also paint fabric,pillows,chairs rugs etc....
Wow it turned out gorgeous. And the Blue Willow I have been collecting for years. Country Living had a spread in their Spring catalog feathering Blue Willow so thanks to them the prices have sky rocketed. Your hutch and the decor looks amazing ☺️💕
Thank you Gina. I think there are quite a few different things showing blue willow and other blue and white decor. The new decor style "grandmillenial" is another reason they are popular again.
Not to mention that Royal Stafford is one of the FEW English potters still making that pattern in Staffordshire, England instead of outsourcing to the PRC.
Turned out beautiful, as usual! You have a true gift! Maybe another chair. It might be neat to have a different chair or an older desk.
Thx for sharing!
Thank you Lisa. I think I'll just have to try a couple of those ideas
So, so cute is this video. I LOVE the soothing blue in that room! Yes, I agree - less is more sometimes. I love the trim on the chair, the pillows (maybe a little throw, too?). I would like to see a secretary in the other corner maybe. Love the video, thanks for the ideas.
I think a secretary would be awesome in that corner thank you
Amazing Corie! I love how you are able to mix colors, styles, etc. and make it look cohesive.
Thank you so much
Holy smokes … you are so neat! I couldn’t imagine painting on carpeting!😜
I think adding the trim to the little blue chair really dressed it up and set it off beautifully👍
Thank you I'm so glad you liked it
Cory, I need you to decorate my home! I love how you mixed old items with found/inherited items in your beautifully renovated china cabinet. And your extra special touches, like the trim on the chair, were just enough. Lovely, lovely! You always leave me waiting for your next video. Thank you for sharing the expertise which you have developed over these last years. Keep those videos coming! Love to your family!
Your lounge is coming on a treat. The hutch you've just done is positively gorgeous, I love it. And no I haven't glued any fabrics before, but it might be something I might try, after watching you do the chair. Have really enjoyed watching this one, thank you. 🥰🇬🇧🐾🐾❄️
Thanks so much! 😊
My Grandmother had that very same in her kitchen for years!!
My mom made those salmon drops & she called them “salmon croquets.” My mom didn’t season them, either. We aren’t spicy people. 😁 Your videos are so unique. I love how you made the recipes that you found in the hutch AND tasted them. That’s such a spontaneous thing to do.
Thank you so much! I loved hearing your story. I have adhd so sometimes it makes me do spontaneous things I guess. I don't even realize it haha. It's my super power. 👌
Plate hooks ,I have found them at Walmart. Your collection is beautiful, you touch my heart with how you give new life to old treasures. Thanks for your talent.
Wonderful! Thank you so much
Fabulous. I would prefer that than something new. Looks stunning and unique.
Me too! Thank you Stella
Made this recipe for years,but in cake form & without eggs! Loved it!😊
I love the hutch! Beautiful color.
I'd put some white wax on the details of the hutch...and in the corner, Walmart has a Drew Barrymore round chair that swivels...saw it on do it on a dime video today and I think it would be perfect in that corner rather than another piece of wood furniture...your home is coming together...good luck 😊
That's a great idea! Also I looked up the chair. Is it green?
Love the mix of green and blue.
Thank you!
I love that shade of green! So fresh and fun.
So enjoyed this video! It was my first time seeing you, so I liked and subscribed! That little trim on the chair looks great and the lamp turned out wonderful! The hutch was a big project but you did a beautiful job! Those blue dishes are gorgeous! Excited to see more! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much Brenda, I am so glad you are here
I absolutely LOVE your makeovers you did. This corner turned out fantastic! And I love the green color.
Thank you so much Bonnie!
You're wonderful, talented, down to earth. ❤❤❤ I love your channel ❤❤❤ And because of you I now adore American version of French Provincial with vintage blue white dishes and tea pots. I love it so much! We have no taste here in Britain when it comes to interior design. Americans really do it better, but I'm learning 😊
I literally LOL’d when you did your “center measurement” and hammered in the nail as that is EXACTLY our household! Hubby would have had a Level and tape measure and taken about 30 min. The only difference is you actually used a hammer. I used a GLASS (solid) ‘fortune telling’ ball to hammer a nail in one time after I eyeballed the center of the wall.
ANNNNNDDD BUSTED…..in walks hubby and just gives me the hairy eyeball….goes and gets the level, hammer, ‘proper nail’ whatever THAT means? A nail is a nail. Take 20 min measuring it and marking etc etc…..
Guess where the hole went? YEP……EXACTLY WHERE MY “wrong” nail went.
He was absolutely QUIET for the remainder of the day and hasn’t said a word since.
I even asked him to hand me the hammer the other day as I was hanging up the kitchen pictures above the sink after our kitchen reno and he went and got the Glass Ball and handed it to me without saying a word and smiled and walked out of the kitchen.
WINNING! HAHAHAHA!
Gotta love that man!❤❤❤❤❤
As a designer I would like to share my opinion that your blue chair should be moved out a little more out from the corner and not so angled bringing it out and closer to the cabinet. Having your chair more in front of your window with the back of your chair. Still angles but “not” so angle as having it at a 45• angle as it looks to be right now. Your lamp is way too close to the corner walls and your curtains. It wouldn’t be very good for your curtains to catch fire from the heat of your lamp. Otherwise your colors and placements of your decor is right on but will look even better and more professional as you have spent many hours recreating some beautiful pieces.
I sew and use fabric hot glue. Your videos are always inspirational. Your projects are awesome
Thank you "sew" much!
Am so enjoying your videos! You are so informative, creative and humble. Love how you and your hubby work together on projects.
In the corner to the Right of the Hutch….what about a small round table and two smaller arm chairs and make it a Chess Table or small Games Table? Finding two wood chairs that match and maintain some of the wood yet adding that green as a touch here and there like on the legs or arms depending on what you find and then the table you could actually paint the Chess Board ON the table so it could be Chess or Checkers or have a Felt rolled out for Backgammon? Just a thought and good luck if u do find something like that then at least it is a useable space for the kids too and who knows…..you could have a little Bobby Chess Champ??? ❤❤❤❤❤
I would put a tall tree or plant 27:35 in that right corner. A desk or piece of furniture would compete with that beautiful armoire imo. Greenery is always welcomed.
I’ve never thought about putting trim on the skirt. What a great idea! The latest trend is to remove the skirt completely. That’s something I don’t want to do. Thank you for an alternative!
I just had my kitchen cupboards painted a few weeks ago . Just the inserts I wanted some wood showing on the cabinets . The color you chose is almost the same color as my cabinets . !! Plus I seen a new jeep in my church parking lot and it was the same shade as my cabinets and your hutch . ! I loved the look you got and love how you decorated inside your hutch ! Mine is so full with all my children’s and grandkids plates and special Items they got me through the years . I cannot remove them they will notice ! Lol love the style you have for decorating !
Try corn meal next time and less flour. The flour just helps it stick together better. I think they have more flavor using meal, salt and papper to taste. Yummy!
I would choose another chair, but in a floral print, bringing in your green and blue gray. Mixing patterns always seems glamorous to me.
I just love blues and greens! Looks great!
Thank you Dyana!
Love what you have done, but the plate hook on the wedgewood plater will devalue if it chips the it. You can buy stand up plate stands would be ashame to ruin the valuable serving plate. Love from the West Midlands in the UK. I live not too far from where the plater was made xx
I love the color of the hutch. I like all versions of subtle geens, from celery color to a gray green color. Our hutch got sun damage on the part that is not real wood. Laminated kind of image of wood. I want to paint it but maybe leave the real wood mouldings showing.
Maybe add some trim to your lamp,get a stool with color,playing off your hutch,greens,blues etc😊
I don't know why you painted it in a green color and almost everything you put in it was blue! Why not paint it in a soft neutral color? Good clean up and cute cabinet.
well done, you have both done a fantastic job, i loved everything more so your wanting your kids to be kids.
You did such a good job Cory! Everything looks sooo good! Love the trim on the chair. After seeing you hot glue the trim I’ve done the same on some cording on a chair I redid last week. And it looks great! Your livingroom is looking so cozy! 🥰🥰🥰
Oh yay I'm so glad you did it on your chair. Thank you so much Kim
Re: salmon balls....I always used chopped green peppers and onions...great taste
Walmart sells your plate hooks in the paint and hardware department. They are more costly than on Amazon however if you need one to finish a project they are a good resource.
Wide trims are crazy expensive! Sometimes you can find them online for a better price but 12-25 dollars a yard makes them quite a luxury!
Everything looks so beautiful! You did an awesome job. Thanks for sharing, Corie ❤
Thank you so much Gina! I am so glad you liked it
@@DesertDIY you’re so welcome
Salmon Patties were my children’s favorite meal. It is inexpensive, easy, and to me delicious. I use old fashioned oats for my binder, instead of flour.
People were rude to you in the comments. Some people only watch TH-cam to say mean things.
Add do finally chopped onions to the salmon drops next time.. it's good that way. 👍😊
Looking great cand wait to see the finished room. A tree or lg. Plant would be nice ❤
Floating shelves with a small desk with a adjustable stool and a table lamp or sconce.
Everything looks so fresh and light and pretty, I love it! You can always put a different chair in the other corner. Especially with Granny Chic, it doesn’t have to be matching. ❤
Thank you! And that is a good point
Taping is for lazy people 😔 glad you went that route,but looks Ok
Nice make over on the cabinet I loved that you decided to make the recipes you found
Maybe I missed it but how much do you think you spent money wise on this gorgeous cabinet and how much time wise? You do good work to save these! Hate to see things thrown away
Oh and a multiple plant stand item or eucalyptus tree in a blue and white pot could balance it out and add to the green and clean the air too. If your kids are safe with it. Just a thought
I'd say I spent around $40 total.
That sounds like a beautiful idea. Thank you
@@DesertDIY well worth $40 and thanks for the reply about this and the plant area in the corner. I'm sure whatever you do will be splendid
How did you fix the places in the drawers where the veneer was missing?
I got some at hobby lobby, but that’s been quite a while ago.
I love the green. I have the blue aNd white set of dishes. And i have the blue pieces.
Better to hang the shell mirror a few inches higher above the hutch. Your shiny hair is beautiful, and a great cut.
Like you, I could immediately see the beautiful bones and style of this Mahogany chest. It is beautiful but someone did not take care of it. I'm so happy with how you turned it around, beautiful and I adore the color.
Thank you so much Lisa
I believe Ace Hardware carries those plate holders in several sizes, I couldn’t even guess the cost.
As soon as you said it I could totally see the chair skirt as a tennis skirt 😂
A big plant would look nice in the corner to the right
I would have added some molding to those doors..would look even better.
Beautiful Hutch . Vintage if not antique for sure!!! ❤❤❤🎉
I think the corner needs a tall plant a shorter plant and some sort of vase or statue or basket
Looks beautiful. I measure things the same way lol
So much better than the cardboard “wood” furniture of today.
I just saw plate hangers last week at Hobby Lobby.
STOP IT !! So just found your channel 3days ago and missy you are responsible for very late nights as I binge watch your videos 😂 Lol
I absolutely love your style and your home is stunning !!
Thank you so much! Haha! I hope you get some good sleep tonight. My next video will be sunday
Taking the skirt off of the chair will make it look more modern
Beautiful job, thanks for sharing!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
Be careful with the plate hooks. They damage the plates & you’ll lose the value of them
Thank you for the tip. These have rubber edges
I definitely measure just like that! 😂. My husband drives me nuts waiting for his perfection. I love watching and what you’ve done! Love it!! Thanks for sharing, Cory..❤
That is so funny! So many women I know feel the exact same way. There's a time and a place for exact Measurements. When that happens we call on our husband's haha
@@DesertDIY exactly! 😆 you have a great Labor Day .. what’s left of it. I’m cooking ribs now and the kids are on there way.
The black is likely from gas lamps. I saw that on my grandmother's furniture and that's what people said it was. A detail in it's design indicates it is at least 85-90 years old and maybe much much older. My grandparents were married in 1917. Yes they were my grandparents and not my great-grandparents. If they got new furniture when they got married, that indicates how old it is. The beading, if that's what you call it, between the drawers and cabinets, is like what was on my grandparents' sideboard. The curved shape of the drawers is on the secretary desk, so popular at least since the 1930's.
Please excuse me for saying so, but it pains me to see you cover that hutch with paint rather than refinishing it. It really only needed cleaning. That wood was beautiful!
Thank you for the info. It was missing large chunks of veneer on the drawers and along the sides.
A great (and very affordable!) makeover. I really enjoyed your video. I understand that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a form of Epstein-Barr, and research showed a common denominator among people who suffered from this was that many were active get-it-done people who often worked with strippers, paints, solvents, etc. So, suiting up and wearing a respirator is a good idea! Subscribed, and looking forward to more content. 😊
Very interesting! Thank you
Love it all except the trim on the chair! You do a great job
I've been following you for a number of years now. I remember watching you refinish your furniture pieces right on the driveway at your old house in Arizona. Flip flops and a tank top! It breaks my heart to see what lengths you have to go to now so can do what you love. But that's just it I guess, you love it so much, you're willing to facev g t😊
I'm not really sure what you mean about what lengths I have to go to now. I feel like it's gotten easier and easier haha. I love my job.
Oh Blue Willow from England! My mother had a few pieces she actually brught from England. She was born in Scotland but moved to England after married then they came to USA. Do you know the story. Supposedly the willow tree cries for the lovers that were kept apart. They were so sad they turned into birds to fly away together. Probably more details than that but thats the gist of it. You can see that story on the dishes.
Wow that's neat I never knew that
I think the hutch looked like it could have had a little mold on it. Along with other things. I use Dawn Powerwash for things in the house. I didn’t realize you could use it on furniture. I don’t like salmon. My husband loves it. And I don’t like raisins. So probably wouldn’t have tried the recipes. That the kind of papers my mom used to keep. Everything turned out great. I have a Bissell little green machine too. And watching you clean the chair reminds me that I need to clean our chair too.
Yes it did have some white mold starting to grow on it from the humidity here. Thankfully that type is easy to clean off. Only use dawn power wash on things that need degreasing. How neat that your mom kept the same type of recipes. Thank you so much for watching and I enjoy your clean chair!
Love all your videos. The first one I watched led me to believe you live in or near Houston. Anyway, the wire plate hangers have been available at Lowe’s in the recent past. Probably at Home Depot, too. Keep these vids coming. 😊
Thank you! Yes I am in houston. I have uploaded a lot of videos so far since moving here if you want to check out the rest of my projects
