The radio nativity scene is AMAZING!!!! They are all clever but that one grabbed my heart. Well done!!! 🫶🏻❤
Thank you so much!😊
Yea, a new video. My favorite pieces were made with the clock. I still have my Avon Nativity scene which has gotta be almost 40 years old. Love your ideas and so glad you share.
Girl, the way your brain works is beyond comprehension! Your ideas and the Christmas music got me in the spirit! Great job ‼️🎄❤️
Thank you so much, Janey!!😊
Wonderful pieces. I live the Nativity clock. The black wax just deepened the blue perfectly. My Mom got me the whole Avon Nativity set over the years it was available. I cherish it and the whole thing goes on my mantle every year.
I love what you did with the clock, and I like the sled, too. It's great that you got 2 projects out out of each one. Your creativity is amazing!!
Oh the inspiration as I sit here looking at my craft pile! Thank You.
Love!!! Nativity radio 👍🏽😊
I just love watching your videos! Our tastes are so different but I still always find inspiration from your beautiful projects!
Blessings!
I simple adored the radio Christmas scene. How beautiful it was.x

I love the old vintage radio make over. So cute.
Thank you, Sally! 😊

Hello Sherry! Your creativity amazes me every time I watch your videos! I love everything you create.

The nativity was my favorite.

Great job Sherry,you are amazing lady,doing those precious treasuries!
Thank you so much, Gloria!😊
⚾️ AND SHE KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK YET AGAIN FOLKS!!!
The little sled with the wood bundle/greenery is so cute! There's a local-to-me nursey/plants/home decor/Christmas center that gets the best Christmas decor and that little sled seriously looks like something they would sell! But it would probably cost around $80 there!
Thank you so much, Emily! I like to shop at a similar store in my area, and their prices are always so high! I sure enjoy looking around and getting inspiration though.
Oh, how I would like to tag along with you thrifting!! You have such a great eye and “see” the potential in the ordinary.
How pretty! Thinking Christmas around here, too!😊
Thank you! 😊
Great job Sherry. You never fail to amaze me. Loved all the projects. Keep them coming Sherry we really enjoy your creativity.
Thank you so much, Sherie!
Fabulous love all of them ❤❤❤ from England xx

Yay, thank you, LG!😊
Loved them all....I'm heading to my local Goodwill. Wish me luck! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Good luck!
Christmas decor already? (Sigh)
Love the nativity!!!
All the projects are very pretty! Thanks for the ideas. Terri
Thanks so much!😊
Another winner.!!!
Thank you, Cheryl! 😊
I liked the brass reindeer on the fireplace screen. Even though the clock was a replica, it was still pretty cool, especially when the real deal ones r expensive & generally don’t work. I just can’t get past destroying such a neat piece. I get people say it’s being “saved” from a landfill, but actually using it as is, does more saving than chopping things up into little what nots that will end up tossed because there’s no use any longer. I have an antique telephone collection, I can’t imagine taking (especially), my genuine brass candle stick phone or my pot belly phone & tearing them apart for crafting. I remember when everyone was cutting off all the alphabet letters from antique typewriters to make jewelry/crafts out of, now there are so many destroyed historic typewriters in the landfills along with those “saved” jewelry alphabet letters. 😢
I don’t disagree with you, Kelley! I usually try to buy things that are not special and are, in fact, likely to end up in the landfill. The radio is one of the exceptions. Hopefully, it will be loved for many years by its new owner. I remember the typewriter letter jewelry, too! I did not destroy my vintage typewriter during that trend.
So clever. Thank you
Glad you liked today’s video, Debbie! 😊
All are beautiful but I really loved the radi0
Thank you so much, Patty! 😊
gorgeous! i am inspired and ready Christmas crafting :)
Thank you! I’m so excited for Christmas crafting this year!
Wonderful ideas !!!!!!!
Thank you, Beverly! 😊
You are amazing!
Fabulous. Loved he 🛷
Oh, thank you! 😊
Now that I saw the old Christmas photo with the old radio, I want you to redo the radio using the photo as the background!!😂
I know, right?! How cute would that be?
Love all the projects. Not sure they were under five dollars if you have to buy spray paint and transfer sheets, etc. But a creative packrat could always improvise with decoupage and acrylic paint. TFS. I had the day off, so forgot I had a treat in store with my supper. After a day at school, I really look forward to your videos. Hope you are well and avoiding the new batch of COVID going around.
You have one of the most creative minds I have ever seen! I have a couple of nice pieces that I would like to upcycle. Could I borrow your mind for a little bit? 😁
Me encanta el belén, precioso 😊
Thank you, Margarita! 😊
Love it 😻😻
Thank you, Frida! 😊
Great job again
Thank you, Elsie!😊
Please remember that everyone cannot afford the rub on transfers. I craft for fun.
Your goodwill stores are so different to ours. Prices here in NZ are triple what you pay. Yesterday a 3 inch candlestick which was tarnished and wobbly was selling at $12. The necessary household items which people desperately need are lower priced. I guess we aren’t into the whole crafting experience. No dollar tree or hobby lobby either.
Love it all!!!

Thank you so much, Debi! Is it still hot in Oklahoma? When I lived in Phoenix, it was hard for me to get in the Christmas spirit when it was still so hot outside.
Fun fact: the wise men did not visit the manger at the time of Jesus’ birth as is usually depicted in Christmas decor and in plays. The wise men visited Jesus in his home when he was approximately 2 years old. See Matthew chapter 2 for the full story. The clock nativity scene turned out beautifully.
Thank you, Lynn! That is interesting. I think there are several misconceptions about Jesus’s birth. I have read that it is unlikely that he was born in December.
When do you post things into your catalog? I saw this and watched when it was only 6 min old, and everything new was sold out…boo hoo! Love the nativity in the old radio….
That's too bad. Maybe we should shop everyday.....lol
Thank you, Chelle! I added the new DIY items about two hours before the video went out. I think only one thing sold before the video was released, but viewers must have gone to the store before watching the video. I’m sorry the radio was already sold.
🎄🎄🎄😊
Thank you, Lily!😊
Where Are you located I would like to buy you. Some items you made. I m in New York.
Hi, Rose! Thank you! I live in Illinois. I have an online store where I sell my DIY projects and vintage finds. You can find the store at canterburycottageshop.com
All those projects are so beautiful. I love what you did with the clock. The nativity scene is stunning.
Thank you so much, Sandy! 😊
