I am excited. I have inherited an old, black mantel clock from Grandma's house. The clock hasn't worked my whole life. I think I will paint it off-white with decoupaged pink roses. I will replace the clock face with Great-Grandma's gray and white toned photo, beautifully colorized with pale pink. I have engagement photos of both grandparents that I plan to put in other antique clocks. I have an 18" hand-made oak shelf to put them on and hang Grandpa's violin on the wall beside them. You have inspired me! Thank you!
Oh, Mary Ellen! You have a beautiful plan! I would love to see your display when you have it all finished! How nice that will be to be reminded of your grandparents every day!
I've heard of bringing new life to old things but you have managed to bring new life to dead things! Love the vivarium. And I like the versatility of the marble lamp base. You have wonderful ideas! Thank you for another beautiful video.
You 🤯my mind! The cloche, the marble lamp useable 2 ways,your staging-of mantle !!! You just find the most interesting pieces to create. I love, love your channel❤❤
Sherry you have a beautiful home. I love to watch you create beautiful things from cast outs You are very creative and spark me to go thrifting to see what I can find for my home . I have to confess I have been thrifting for year and have so many treasures. It's been great fun. Enjoy your summer Sherry. Until next time.😊
I remember in the 70s people had glass containers filled with real butterflies and dried flowers…it’s interesting, I have some items that aren’t as showy. My husband absolutely hates bugs in the house -dead or alive!!! What you made is really cute and creative.
I love your faux vivarium, Sheri! I have found dead bumble bees now and then, outside. Even not living, they are beautiful. I usually give them a little burial and a prayer. But I think I will search for elements to make a vivarium myself. Your vivarium shows a sweet appreciation for nature. Your brass candle lamp is gorgeous! What a find! The marble lamp is really lovely, and I like what you did with it. I prefer the version with the trailing plant. Your collection of blue and white china is so appealing. I have a collection of blue and white china too. I loved seeing the vintage lamp with the doily shade in the new vignette you created with the granny chic chair. I enjoyed this video so much! You are a genius, and I love your sense of style!
That marble lamp transformation is sooo good! Every project was wonderful. So many really great ideas and I really love your collections! Thanks for sharing! Have a great week!
Sherry, I agree with your thinking on big glass jars. For a party fill with candy and a scoop. Also baskets are great for storage and are common finds at thrift stores. I love your blue and white collection.
I love your blue dishes! Especially the Dutch pieces! We went to Aruba, Bon Aire and Curaçao in January. My husband bought several pieces for our collection!
Hi Sherry! You have become my husband's & I favorite crafter. You have more unique ideas for turning the blah into beauties, than anyone else we watch. And there are several! You inspire us so much. But the thing you do that Vic just loves, is when you day at the end of your intros is "Let's get started!" Vic joins in with you every time and says it too! It's a hoot 😅. Well keep up the great work girlfriend ! We love ya!❤ Vic & Sherry Morrison , Newark, Ohio
Wow, thank you! I love that you both watch. My husband only watches my videos because he’s my husband! I really appreciate your kind comments and your support!😊
I love everything, but especially the cloche. Finding and adding the butterfly and bee takes it over the top! I like the marble lamp base with the plant. I wish I had your level of imagination to repurpose thrifted items.😊
*Sherry, I L🤍VE your Vivarium...and you are NOT weird...I am an insect enthusiast and have been decorating with dead butterflies, moths, bees, beetles🐞 and dragonflies with sticks and faux flowers for decades❣️😁 Anything to up the "real" factor. 😉 I loved today's video‼️🥰💜*
Hi. Sherri,. Weird is good. I always think outside the box and decorate eclectic. My friends love the way I decorate and I always here. Look what this is or look at that. Makes me feel good. Loved this video my friend.
This was so good I think my brain exploded! 🤯 I love old domes and terrariums. My two sons tease me and call me the Dome Queen. I have one that is over 3 foot tall. Haven’t decided what to do with it yet. Teased my grand daughter when she was little and told her I was going to put her in it. (It didn’t scare her because she knows her gammy is silly) 😝😜🤪😂🤣
I can’t wait for your posts each Monday! You are the most creative person I have ever seen! I loved everything but the oil lamp stand with the cloche is my favorite!
Love everything in your home. While I love all these things, I resist the temptation to decorate my home with a lot of items that are just for decorating and doesn't have a function or sentimental value. It's too much dusting for me. I hate to dust. My husband has his mother's silver plated utensils that has her maiden name initial on the handle of each piece. It's not usable as it's very tarnished and the silver is worn off, But it's beautiful. I put all of it in an apothecary jar.
Sherry I love your videos. They are so inspiring and creative. I would not miss your video. See you next Monday. Ps my favourite creation is the one at the beginning with the deceased butterfly. I love it ❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
Sherry, your videos always give me SO much to mull over! Your first piece was my favorite today, but it is always hard to choose. I am going to start looking over very vintage and antique advertising to see what looks unusual in a good way like you did with the cloche. Thanks for another great video!
Hi Sherry, I loved the vivarium. I went to the thrift store Saturday and saw the cutest thing! Someone took an old treadle sewing machine cabinet and made it into a small vanity, I would loved to have bought it but I truly have no space for it. It is a fantastic idea if you ever run across a cabinet.
*Sherry, I L🤍VED your Vivarium...and you are NOT weird...I have been decorating with dead butterflies, moths, bees, beetles 🐞 and dragonflies with sticks, faux florals and greenery for DECADES‼️ Anything to up the "real" factor❣️🥰💜*
That real bee and butterfly were so beautiful. My favorite, if I have to choose. Everything you did in this video turned out amazing. Your videos are the best part of my Mondays.
Great tips on how to combine and arrange otherwise disparate items. I admire the treasures you manage to find in your area; "slim pickens" around here...
You always come up with such good ideas,I didn’t have a favorite. Love your creative side your students Must have loved you to the point of not wanting to leave your classes. Thank you for what you did then and for what you are sharing now.
Your ideas are always inspiring and I enjoy ‘hearing you’ too. I’m quite sure with your soothing speaking cadence and beautiful enunciation, your students loved you too! You’re still teaching!
Have you seen the William Morris fabric collection and rugs also??? My granddaughter would adore saving the dead bugs in the cloche. We would have a home full of creatures if I didn't object.
Sherry you never disappoint me with all of your fabulous ideas! I happen to like the vivarium and the marble lamp as a candle stand. I will be returning to this video often! Thank you for sharing 😊♥️
Thank you so much, Madonna! I think the Vivarium is one of my all time favorite projects. And, what are the chances that I would find a dead butterfly and a dead bumblebee?

I am also a collector of blue and white porcelain pieces. Have collected for years. Every magazine I pick up now is chocked full of our favorite blues.
Mrs. Sherry, I didn't even make it past the faux vivarium cloche! Wow I absolutely LOVE it! You're so right about the really WEIRD & STRANGE things the Victorians collected and used in theirs! When I look at them I always think "WOOOH WHAT THE HECK" I'd been afraid to stay overnight in some of their homes! 😅 I to have a cemetery window that bees and whatever flies by parishes in! You are so creative!! I STILL want you to come stay for a beach vaca! Hahahaha... Edited to add: ok now that lamp is a WOOOWZERS find! Especially for $6 maybe I need to go spend a couple wks with you instead bc our shops NEVER get goodies like that!!!
Love your home and your motto! It's always been mine..."If you love it, you'll find a place for it"! I recently heard a statement that would fit your home and mine..."the home has accumulated objects and stories as it went along like barnacles on an old ship".
Oh, my goodness! I loved the viverium! I have been trying to turn a corner of my den into a dark academia area. That viverium would be perfect! Now, I’m on the hunt for an old oil lamp!
Your videos inspired me to make a garden mirror. I found an old medicine for free along the side of the road. Detached the mirror, cleaned it, faux painted with black dark green and turquoise craft paint, sealed it and hung it on a shepherd's hook stuck back in the arborvitae hedge. Now I have a "window" into my secret ?? garden room. Thanks for your diy inspirations.
I think you can make a flower arrangement out of anything. Everything was so cool today .i liked the marble lamp upright best. Thank you dear Sherry for your inspiration.
Hello Sherry! I didn't think your 1st revamp was creepy. Love your style and the way you marry items to create beautiful unique pieces. You never let me down, you always encourage and inspire me to look outside the norm. Your creativity is to notch and I appreciate you sharing it with us. I'm always sad when your videos end but can't wait until next week's. 😊
The cloche….. amazing, creative, and stunning. You have a beautiful mind….and home!!
Amen!
Thank you so much, Robin!
That's a lovely way to say it, robininva, and I agree with you 100% -- Sheri has a beautiful mind and home.
I’m a newbie here and I must say I agree! 🗣️💯💕
Ikr..Absolutely gorgeous! ♡
I love the Victorian "whatever you called it" cloche. 😂...the real butterfly and bee were perfect.
Thank you, Brenda! I only knew it was a vivarium from the illustration I had seen. It’s just a terrarium with live animals or insects.
Lol! I love that you used the dead butterfly and bee! What a wonderful way to make their short little lives even more meaningful.
Your comment; "if you love it, you'll always find a place for it" is SO true!! Thanks for sharing this collection of inspirations.
Our Dear Ms. Sherry: I am over the moon for your Vivarium!
Oh, thank you! I’m so glad you like it!
Yikes ! All so great. How do you do it ??
I love the plant lamp!!!! Yay sherry.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊🎉
The highlight of my week is when you publish your video!
Oh, you are just the sweetest!!
@@CanterburyCottage 💕💕💕
I totally agree 👍
Agreed!!❤️
*AGREED❣️💜🥰*
Weird is cool. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
I'm so glad to know that other people decorate with dead bugs too!🐝
And skulls too!
😂
Thank you so much for repurposing the albaster lamp and NOT painting it. So beautiful either way!!
I agree, if you love it you WILL find a place for it. Thank you Sherry.
I look forward to you every week!
That is so sweet of you to say, Midge! 😊
There’s nothing that can’t be made cute with a birds nest, greenery, moss or a butterfly! So so so cute and pleasing to the eye❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree completely!
I am in absolute awe at the way your imagination works (and a little jealous! 😉) All of these ideas are gorgeous!!
I am excited. I have inherited an old, black mantel clock from Grandma's house. The clock hasn't worked my whole life. I think I will paint it off-white with decoupaged pink roses.

Sherry you give us inspiration to do what we like, not what's "on trend". Thanks for making quirky more acceptable.
I've heard of bringing new life to old things but you have managed to bring new life to dead things! Love the vivarium. And I like the versatility of the marble lamp base. You have wonderful ideas! Thank you for another beautiful video.
You are so kind, Ellen! Thank you!
Team lamp planter! that turned out STUNNING!

i love the cloche. it was perfect timeing to have found a butterfly and bee to add. it looks amazing.
Love all these items! No I don't think bee and butterfly is weird. The old lamp up or down is amazing ! Just add a rock !!! Love it....

As always you are an inspiration. I look forward to you every Monday. Thank you!
Love the lamp with glass cover!
Sherry, I agree with your thinking on big glass jars. For a party fill with candy and a scoop. Also baskets are great for storage and are common finds at thrift stores. I love your blue and white collection.
I automatically give you a thumbs up because I know your videos are going to be epic!
I liked the old lamp base upside down with the plant. Great work!
I love your blue dishes! Especially the Dutch pieces! We went to Aruba, Bon Aire and Curaçao in January. My husband bought several pieces for our collection!
Hi Sherry! You have become my husband's & I favorite crafter. You have more unique ideas for turning the blah into beauties, than anyone else we watch. And there are several!

Wow, thank you! I love that you both watch. My husband only watches my videos because he’s my husband! I really appreciate your kind comments and your support!😊
I loved the vivarium! Very dark acedemia and not weird at all!
I just want to live in your home, please. I can never choose a favorite because everything you create is a masterpiece!
I love the cloche and the marble lamp with the faux greenery.
Oh my goodness, I love the first one the close with the butterfly and the bumblebee that is so clever❤
You’re one of the best portions of my week ! Always enjoy you and your creativity !
The old copper lamp is just beautiful transformation!
Thank you, Gloria! I’m really happy with that project, too!
Your creativity and eye for style is unmatched Sherry!! My vote on the cracked marble = upside down as a candlestick. Great collection of ideas!!
I love everything, but especially the cloche. Finding and adding the butterfly and bee takes it over the top! I like the marble lamp base with the plant. I wish I had your level of imagination to repurpose thrifted items.😊
A real butterfly? A real bumblebee? Get outta here!😁 The Victorian cloche is fantastic.❤🦋🐝❤ Love red transferware.
Sherry, you always inspire me. However I don’t have the creativity you have so I just have to be satisfied with watching your videos.

I really liked them all...the "real" butterfly surprised me..but it's perfect...and the "bee" that's a Canterbury Cottage 1st I think???!!!❤❤😊😊

Using a butterfly that Edgar found and a bumble bee from the window - THAT is resourceful and creative!
Absolutely love all of your creativity when you thrift flip that cloche using that oil lamp was absolutely spectacular😊
That real bee and butterfly were so beautiful. My favorite, if I have to choose. Everything you did in this video turned out amazing. Your videos are the best part of my Mondays.
Oh, Shelly, that is so very sweet of you! Thank you!
I envy your ability to create such gorgeous vignettes! Wow!
Your home is beautiful! I love your plants🌻🌻🌻🦋🦋🦋
Oh wow I love how you used that cloche!! Beautiful!!
Great tips on how to combine and arrange otherwise disparate items. I admire the treasures you manage to find in your area; "slim pickens" around here...
Your Victorian remake cloche and really everything you do is sooo creative.
All were amazing! I liked the marble lamp best with the greenery!
As always, enjoyed the video.
You are amazing, always make me happy when I watch your videos and today I was much needed. Again thank you 🤗💐🐾
You always come up with such good ideas,I didn’t have a favorite. Love your creative side your students Must have loved you to the point of not wanting to leave your classes. Thank you for what you did then and for what you are sharing now.
i love the victorians they were wacky and weird ❤
I’ll be looking for an old anniversary clock with glass cover at the thrift stores so I can try a vivarium. So many wonderful ideas, as usual Sherry!
🤩Queen of Decordom!!
I found a cast iron hurricane lamp base. I also found a shade frame….gonna make one of your wandering vines and bird creations! Yay!
Love it all. It's so relaxing watching you do your art.
I so enjoy your videos. You are a very talented woman. You find and up-cycle so many items that I would love in my home.
Thank you so much, Anna!
Your ideas are always inspiring and I enjoy ‘hearing you’ too. I’m quite sure with your soothing speaking cadence and beautiful enunciation, your students loved you too! You’re still teaching!
Oh, thank you! I know that I talk rather slowly, so I really appreciate the kind comments about my voice!
You are AMAZING!!! I never miss a video! Love and Blessings❣️
Love your cloche and I liked the marble piece both ways. Oh yeah, you nailed it again. Love your changes. 😊❤ have a wonderful week.
Thank you, Margaret! You too!
Have you seen the William Morris fabric collection and rugs also???
My granddaughter would adore saving the dead bugs in the cloche. We would have a home full of creatures if I didn't object.
The cloche is perfect! I love the use of the (expired) bee and butterfly. It’s a great teaching opportunity if you have young children around.
The cloche is awesome. I’m trying to incorporate more vintage, English country to my home now.
17:17 Now the only thing missing is a footstool that can be tucked under the chair when not in use! 🥰
I think it’s time I gather my odds and ends to create something new and unique. Thank you for te inspiration.
I think it’s time, too! I bet you have some interesting odds and ends!
Good luck to you! I tried and even said, what would Sherry do. That didn't help me. Maybe you'll have better luck!!😊
Look forward to your video every week!! Your ideas and creativity are just the best 😊
Thank you so much!! What a kind thing to say, Judy!
The cloche is so interesting, I love it. And yes we have a big window where flying bugs go to die.😂
Thanks, Nancy! Would you believe I found a second dead bumblebee in my living room. I don’t know where they are coming from!
@@CanterburyCottage I usually just get mosquitoes.

Oh, I hope you find one! I am really pleased with mine, and I am hoping to find another interesting insect to add-hopefully, a moth!
Love the lamp make over!
Everything you do is always entertaining and educational. I love everything you do.
The cloche is genius! I love vignettes and do them all over.
Your videos inspired me to make a garden mirror. I found an old medicine for free along the side of the road. Detached the mirror, cleaned it, faux painted with black dark green and turquoise craft paint, sealed it and hung it on a shepherd's hook stuck back in the arborvitae hedge. Now I have a "window" into my secret ?? garden room. Thanks for your diy inspirations.
I think you can make a flower arrangement out of anything. Everything was so cool today .i liked the marble lamp upright best. Thank you dear Sherry for your inspiration.
Thank you! 😊 (My son told me the other day that I was really good at arranging “plants and moss and stuff.” High praise coming from him!😜)
Hello Sherry! I didn't think your 1st revamp was creepy. Love your style and the way you marry items to create beautiful unique pieces. You never let me down, you always encourage and inspire me to look outside the norm. Your creativity is to notch and I appreciate you sharing it with us. I'm always sad when your videos end but can't wait until next week's. 😊
Thank you, Terri! I really appreciate your kind words of support. 😊
I love everything today! Thank you for the great inspiration 😊❤️
The lamp,I'd put fairy lights in a round globe and set on top❤🤷♀️ very pretty how you did it as well ❤❤❤
Oh, Wanda, I love that idea! I need to look for a globe shaped glass bowl!
Love your vivarium!
I wish I had as many places as you to put out so many do-dads ( as my mom called them) ! Love it!
