The red bowl was the best mahogany bowl that I have seen in a long time... I would never think about painting such a lovely red mahogany bowl. A cleaning and oiling or waxing would have been all that it would have needed to really bring the out the beauty of the natural red mahogany.
@ L Jackson , I totaly agree with you. I never paint beautiful solid wood that is not damaged. Use paint on cheap, damaged or veneered wood to enhance it. Same with good wood furniture. I never paint it either.
I would say that the bowl is rosewood!! A beautiful and valuable element unfinished with paint over that amazing finish. Love the basket also,. Clever idea for the silver plated casserole holder.
LOVED all the items. I especially love how you take the time to finish your the BACKS of your pieces as well so they look as nice as the front. So many people think "no one will see the back" Sorry; but that's the 2nd place I look after looking at the front. If they skimped on that part, where else did they skimp at is how I feel. I was always taught "something worth doing, is worth doing right". I suppose that's why I have such an A personality but I was raised in a military family as well. This was the first video I've watched of yours but am looking forward to watching many more. Thanks!!
Beautiful transformations! You had me when you said that you made the backs of items as pretty as the front. I don’t like to see a crafter make something lovely and then turn it over and there are stickers, dirt, etc. Love your ideas! Thanks for sharing
That sewing machine drawer would be nice as a toilet tissue holder as tall as it is, or a display for wash cloths and hand towels. What great ideas you come up with for the things you find! This my first time watching and I will check out your next projects.
Those are votive cups for candles so you guessed well! The sewing machine drawer would be a great planter I think. I love your creative mind: you're a woman after my own heart! My favorite was the casserole holder!
You are precious. How fun to see the transformation of each great find. Pretty paper on that table too. Liked them all but I think the shape of that l'il table got a big thumbs up. Blessings Always.
Hi Cindy! This is the first time I have seen one of your videos and I love them! Not only your finds and your creativity, but the way you show and explain everything makes it well worth the watch! Thank you so much!
Adding feet to your projects really elevates them (literally!)!! 😉 I would not have seen the vision to add feet to any of these. Love how they all turned out! I’m now looking around my house to see what could use a little lift.
I was scrolling, and I was thrilled to find your channel! It’s just the type of thing I love to watch. It’s so inspiring, and creative. My fav up cycle from this was the old table top turned riser tray. It looks so good. Keep up the thrift flips.
All of your projects came out beautiful. I am into Thrift Flipping furniture (I just did a ding room table and chairs for my college age daughter for her first apartment) and other small wooden materials I find at thrift stores. It is so much fun finding a new purpose for them. This is my favorite kind of video. Taking everyday thrift store items and reimagining them. I know that "The Dollar Tree" crafting videos are trending hard right now, but I skip those and look for content like yours. Keep thrifting and upcycling.
Lady, you are so talented! I'm proud to say I know a woman (even if through TH-cam) who is so credible and self-sufficient. Thank you for being such a credit to women.
I paint over things all the time, but knowing you painted over a beautiful mahogany wooden bowl nearly gave me a heart attack. Lol. I could never do it. A solid cleaning and a good oil would be as far as I ever could have gotten on something so naturally beautiful.
Beautiful! Oddly enough, you really encouraged me when you said something about your arthritic hands! I was limiting myself and rather blue about my wrists and hands. Well if you can, so can I!😀 Thank you!!! John 3:16❤️
All of them! I love the sewing drawer. And the oblong basket that you left some of the dark showing through, All the little feet add so much! its in the details!!
I just came across your video on my feed and so glad I did. I am so glad you paint all areas of your projects. Nothing upsets me more than people who don't paint bottoms because they say they won't be seen. To me if your going to sand, stain or paint, the entire piece should look finished. As one who repurposes pieces I find, I love your designs. I live in Coastal Georgia where we deal with heat in the 90s and 100s with high hummidity for at least 6 months out of the year. I too work in my garage so I sympathize with you in dealing with hot days while working. Keep doing great videos.
So glad you found our channel! And welcome, another garage workshop DIY'er like me! About painting the undersides of pieces: some pieces I do and some I don't. The pieces I don't paint on the undersides (or the backs) are usually antique furniture pieces. I like to leave the original finish as a homage to the past. But I also clean up the edges from any paint that might have gotten on the underside original finish. It's my way of leaving some of the past in tact :) Thanks for watching!
I loved the basket, the tray and the bowl you painted gray. I believe that wood on the bowl is Purple Heart wood. It looks a lot like the wood that my parents had made all we 6 girls hand mirrors made custom for Christmas gifts as we got into our middle aged years. It is gorgeous and I was sad to see it painted but it does look lovely with the gray. Purple wood is very very expensive wood from the Rain Forest region in central and south america. There are about 20 different species of the wood but it sure reminds me of the wood our mirrors are made of. Very interesting. I am a new sub as of tonight as I found your tricks and the finished products so interesting! Best of luck and keep on sharing.......loved by watch of your video! Blessings
Thanks for the info about the bowl and for joining us! Many people have had opinions about that bowl here in the comments! I'm so glad it stirred a memory for you 😊
I love the passion, even though the history and the value of items is no longer true, especially the bowl and basket. But, it's the owners treasure now and if it makes owner happier that's the value at time! Great passion, love it!
I have a close second to the gray bowl. I love the wicker and wood "container" with handles, especially how you applied the paint so that the original wicker shows through.
Re: The picket fence tray. It's often easier to glue (& clamp) the boards together first, and then cut them. I'm amazed at how perfectly you were able to line the edges up cutting them individually. You have a gift! 👋🏼😁✌🏽
Absolutely Beautiful, all the pieces!! Your Talent of imagination is beyond words!! I too, Love how you did 3 projects at one time!! Lady, you are TERRIFIC! I look forward to more videos. ♥️🐾 Jan and Duke
First time 'watcher', and I'm hooked! You are so relatable, it's like watching a good friend who's honest with us about not knowing what everything is! 😊
This is my first time to your channel. I watch other creators who flip finds but I was intrigued by the items you selected at the beginning of your video. I haven’t finished watching yet but I decided to pause, comment and subscribe. I love the drill attachment you shared. I liked the sanding sponges you mentioned as I too have arthritic hands as well as nerve damage. It definitely makes things more difficult but not impossible. Anything I can find to help with those issues means a lot. Work smarter not harder is my motto. I loved the projects you shared. I have seen risers made from the silver platter holders before but they cut the wood to fit on top of the bottom lip on the inside. I’ve never seen someone clean them up, use gilding wax or create the riser in this way. Quite a few people are into tarnished silver these days. I love learning about new products and new ways of creating something special. The gilding wax was great. Especially if tarnished silver doesn’t sell well in your region. This is also the first time I have seen someone brush on bleach with the bleaching method. I had only heard of submerging items in a tub of bleach. That’s exactly why I have never tried it before. It seemed so messy and like a waste of product. I think my favorite from today is the sewing drawer on spindle feet. I love to put feet on things. Especially with spindles but yours turned out absolutely darling. Thanks a ton for all of the great tips and tricks you shared today. I look forward to binge watching your videos. 😊
Omgoodness, your comment has brought a smile to my face and my heart! I'm so glad that you enjoyed the video and our projects. The silver tray/picket fence board repurposed project has been a great seller in our local vendor booth. I hope you get to make one (or more!) too! I'm hoping to do regular upcyling videos in the future so stay tuned! :)
@@ReinventedDelaware I'm so glad my comment brightened your day even if just a bit. I will definitely continue watching. I learned so much from watching 3 videos. Much more than I have learned in a very long time. You make beautiful projects and you're an amazing teacher. You're stuck with me now. 😊❤
Loved the basket and the scalloped basket too. Thank you for showing how you did the crackle tone on the long drawer too. Everything looked beautiful after finishing.
The silver riser! I see those all the time, never knew what to do with them! Cool way to make a really special piece! Would make a very nice plant riser, indoor or out. I love the tray too.
Hello Cindy! I am so happy to have discovered your channel as this is exactly what I enjoy watching! Every one of your projects turned out beautifully and I love them all, but if I had to pick a favorite, it would have to be the table top turned tray with the paper. Love it!
Love all of the projects you repurposed, brilliant ideas for all of them! Thank you for the inspirations! Delaware looks like a brilliant place to find things to thrift shop.
@@ReinventedDelaware I’m originally from Maryland and remember driving through Delaware to go to Rehobeth Beach or Ocean City, Maryland , and remember driving through many of the small towns that would have those lovely auction/ thrifting places. Currently live in England now, have some lovely antiques over here, and bought quite a few antique furniture. I’ve had the seats of my antique ladder back chairs rewoven, using dried grass/ reed. Come to find out a blind man redone it! Turned out beautiful! Would love to visit Delaware again sometime soon when I visit my sister in Maryland.
Loved all the items in this section , my favorite was the wooden silver casserole dish holder. Although they were all great. I think the wooden bowl was teakwood. Keep up the great ideas.
I loved the scalloped edge tray. I think I would have put a thin board at the bottom of the silver item and use it as a tray to set on my dressing table to ‘corral’ my perfume bottles that are randomly all over it.
@@ReinventedDelaware I have a large old brass plate.. Looks really shabby as it isn't pure brass. Now I just need some spindle legs and paint.. Thanks again!!
Thank You for Painting the Back of your Items, so many You Tubers are in such a hurry to finish their projects, they don’t even care to Paint the Back of their items, I do not buy anything that the back is not finished:
Yes!! I restore and refinish furniture and I will never not paint or refinish the back!! I can’t stand it when it’s not done. It doesn’t look finished. Or not painting the inside sides and bottoms where the drawers go.
I agree. And I’m the same about home improvements. When they change colors of cabinets but leave the inside the original color 😩 I guess I want people to question if something has been restored or if it’s original. Or my OCD just takes over. 🤣
Amen! It sets her apart from many others! My thought is this: If you’re going to put the time and expense into repurposing/upcycling an item, why not take a few extra minutes to finish off the back to complete the project? I’m amazed at how infrequently I see this done. 🤷♀️
Hi Cindy! My favorite piece is the grey bowl -- perfect color and finish for it. I also love the silver chafing dish with its ornate elegance contrasting with the picket fence top you created for it.
@@ReinventedDelaware The wooden bowl is probably mahogany. It is a very rare and expensive wood. I was hoping you would just varnish it and bring out it's beauty. To each his own I suppose. :D
Everything as always so GORGEOUS a favorite so HARD to pick one, hmmmm, the basket, no maybe the tray, hmmmm no maybe the serving riser, hmmmmm nooooo ITS all my favorites!!!! Love everything you did with each piece especially when style they where all awesome LOVE it!!!!!
I loved everything you did, so pretty! Love the little legs on things. Love the tray from the table top. For me, I would have kept the bowl in natural wood, but that's just me. Well done!!
Re: the bowl. Me too. It's made of an exotic wood (Someone suggested purple heart wood. I was thinking rosewood.) would fit right in with classic Chinese decor.
First timer. I love baskets and always look for ways to use them. I just loved the scalloped edge tray! Great ideas 💡 Now I finally know how to use my chafing dish! Thanks 😊
Wonderful! Have a few silver chafing casserole holders myself so appreciate the idea. I love the basket, tray, everything was awesome. Really enjoyed it all. Thanks. Love creative ideas and using old items to produce new treasures.
Loved the wood bowl (just the color it was though.....we have a 7' plus long T.V. cabinet the same color and our dining table is just near it). That bowl would've been a perfect centerpiece with aloes and succulents in it in our home). So you see you might still have some of the older generation as customers if you just clean up some of these items
I like everything you made and I love everything about you. I wish I was your neighbor! This is my first time seeing your channel and I am now a subscriber. My favorite thing about your channel is that you do a step-by-step as your ideas come and go and when things don’t work out you allow the viewers to see how are you worked around that. I have my own channel and I don’t focus on all the editing to keep really professional and just try and make people feel that they’re sitting in the room with me. You do a great job at that! My favorite was the wood bowl!
I’m so glad you found us here! And thank you for the kind words😊 Having an upcycling kindred spirit as a neighbor would be fun! Thanks for subscribing!
Lovely ideas!! I particularly like the basket & how you bleached it, made all the difference! I shall be watching for more great ideas, thank you so much for sharing 😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and the projects Hilary! The bleach made such a difference in the basket and I can't wait to find another one to try it one! Thanks for joining us!
You remind me of my late cousin, Jan, who had boundless energy as you do. I cannot keep up! I think my favorite is the basket. It may have some real value and may be a genuine Shaker. The silver chaffing dish holder would have been more fun and useful as a frame for a vintage painting or photo, or made into a wall mirror. The legs on the sewing drawer are not to scale with the drawer size. The finished project looks like one of those tall, industrial, destructive creatures from a Star Wars film. Otherwise, you would be a fun lady to hang out with because your energy is contagious.🙃
Hi, it’s my first time watching you ❤ I love the ideas! I’m a crafter too, not as good as you but you gave me something to think about doing! Thank you ❤
The silver rectangle is not a chaffing dish holder but a holder for a 9” by 13” Pyrex casserole dish. I say that because I have the same piece and it looks really nice when you serve your casserole. This is my first time watching your channel and I absolutely love it.
The red bowl was the best mahogany bowl that I have seen in a long time... I would never think about painting such a lovely red mahogany bowl. A cleaning and oiling or waxing would have been all that it would have needed to really bring the out the beauty of the natural red mahogany.
You do you. Not everyone is you.
@@nangel270 The original look was nice but the color change is fantastic in my opinion! Options are endless.
She did say that sanding/cleaning did not work well.
@ L Jackson , I totaly agree with you. I never paint beautiful solid wood that is not damaged. Use paint on cheap, damaged or veneered wood to enhance it. Same with good wood furniture. I never paint it either.
@@nangel270 you do know everyone is entitled to an opinion that doesn't always agree with yours..
I think the casserole holder woold look beautiful with a drop in thin wood insert. Great for serving snacks, drinks and tea.
Great idea!!
Would have been way prettier if you had used luan (super thin) plywood insert and some silver polish.
@@sandraisaak3802 either way it looked great what she did.
I would say that the bowl is rosewood!! A beautiful and valuable element unfinished with paint over that amazing finish. Love the basket also,. Clever idea for the silver plated casserole holder.

Those little sewing drawers are easy to find all by themselves. They just need a new purpose!
These are great ideas cindy!!!
Thanks Stacy! Paint is a miracle worker!

All came out sooo pretty. Yes fun... liked the drawer on legs , make a great plant holder sits high rather than like most plants on the floor.

Thanks for noticing!
Yes!! I restore and refinish furniture and I will never not paint or refinish the back!! I can’t stand it when it’s not done. It doesn’t look finished. Or not painting the inside sides and bottoms where the drawers go.
I agree. And I’m the same about home improvements. When they change colors of cabinets but leave the inside the original color 😩
I guess I want people to question if something has been restored or if it’s original. Or my OCD just takes over. 🤣
Amen! It sets her apart from many others! My thought is this: If you’re going to put the time and expense into repurposing/upcycling an item, why not take a few extra minutes to finish off the back to complete the project? I’m amazed at how infrequently I see this done. 🤷♀️

My fav is the sewing drawer with the spindle legs! Really cute! First time seeing your channel and I subscribed!
That’s one of my faves too! They’re so easy to make! So glad you have joined us here😊 Thanks for subscribing!
I love the bowl, natural!
I loved everything you did, so pretty! Love the little legs on things. Love the tray from the table top. For me, I would have kept the bowl in natural wood, but that's just me. Well done!!
So glad you enjoyed the projects 😊
Same here about the bowl.
Re: the bowl. Me too. It's made of an exotic wood (Someone suggested purple heart wood. I was thinking rosewood.) would fit right in with classic Chinese decor.
First timer. I love baskets and always look for ways to use them. I just loved the scalloped edge tray! Great ideas 💡 Now I finally know how to use my chafing dish! Thanks 😊
Yes, I just about had heart failure WHEN you took bleach to that beautiful Solid Mahogany bowl.
My favorite is the octagon tray and second favorite is the sewing machine drawer. Really I love them ALL!!
I loved that octagon table tray thingy too! It sold immediately in our vendor booth. 😊
The bowl, and octagonal ( ?) tray were beautiful after cleaning and before “ improving”
That beautiful bowl is ONE beautiful solid and authentic Mahogany bowl I've seen since my grandmother's dresser we inherited. Gorgeous😍
That is awesome!
The picket board silver tray is beautiful! I have one in my sash, and now I know what I'm going to do with it! Thank you!!!
Yay!! Have fun upcycling!😊 and thanks for watching!
Wonderful! Have a few silver chafing casserole holders myself so appreciate the idea. I love the basket, tray, everything was awesome. Really enjoyed it all. Thanks. Love creative ideas and using old items to produce new treasures.
You are so welcome! I hope you get to makeover one of your silver chafing dishes :)
Loved the wood bowl (just the color it was though.....we have a 7' plus long T.V. cabinet the same color and our dining table is just near it). That bowl would've been a perfect centerpiece with aloes and succulents in it in our home). So you see you might still have some of the older generation as customers if you just clean up some of these items
Yes the ones with the great taste and the pocket full of money.
how do your neighbours cope with that barking dog?
Oh yay more farmhouse and with gray, white and distressed. Roll my eyes.
I absolutely choose the bowl, although I would prefer natural wood, no matter it was dark/red. I'm just a fan of wood as is.
Natural wood would have been a lovely option for many 😊
My favorite is the elevated sewing machine drawer. Elevating it made it so much more useful!
Thanks Kathy! Many have told me it’s too tall and I think I agree! I would make it shorter next time😊
Cindy!!! I love all these thrifty store flips!!! They turned out so good!! Isn't bleach amazing!!!! ❤️
Bleach is my new best friend! Thanks for watching Aliya!
I like everything you made and I love everything about you. I wish I was your neighbor! This is my first time seeing your channel and I am now a subscriber. My favorite thing about your channel is that you do a step-by-step as your ideas come and go and when things don’t work out you allow the viewers to see how are you worked around that. I have my own channel and I don’t focus on all the editing to keep really professional and just try and make people feel that they’re sitting in the room with me. You do a great job at that! My favorite was the wood bowl!
I’m so glad you found us here! And thank you for the kind words😊 Having an upcycling kindred spirit as a neighbor would be fun! Thanks for subscribing!
Lovely ideas!! I particularly like the basket & how you bleached it, made all the difference! I shall be watching for more great ideas, thank you so much for sharing 😊
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and the projects Hilary! The bleach made such a difference in the basket and I can't wait to find another one to try it one! Thanks for joining us!
I wish I lived in your street to come play! I loved that little table! With leaves on it! Eucalyptus!
Im Mesmerized...........😃My fav was the scalloped platter...but ALL were amazing.....
I love all, but the scalped tray is favorite!!
Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
The bleached bucket and the wooden bowl are my favorites🥰
Glad you enjoyed the projects!
Love all of these projects! Everything is beautiful! I think I’m loving the basket as my favorite!
Thank you so much!
You remind me of my late cousin, Jan, who had boundless energy as you do. I cannot keep up! I think my favorite is the basket. It may have some real value and may be a genuine Shaker. The silver chaffing dish holder would have been more fun and useful as a frame for a vintage painting or photo, or made into a wall mirror. The legs on the sewing drawer are not to scale with the drawer size. The finished project looks like one of those tall, industrial, destructive creatures from a Star Wars film. Otherwise, you would be a fun lady to hang out with because your energy is contagious.🙃
I liked the wooden bowl. The new color was perfect. Thank you
Thank you! 😊
Ian glad I came across your Channel. I what you do, my Favorite everything
Awesome, thank you!
I love them all! Hard to choose, but I LOVE the picket fence tray! What a neat way to re purpose that.
Aren't those trays fun? We've made a ton of them for our local customers!
I LOVE ALL OF THEM CAN NOT WAIT FOR ANOTHER VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH .HAVE A BLESSED DAY.ALSO HI TO THE DOGGIE🐕🌻✝

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed the upcycles!
Thank you. I love the box on legs. The tray if fencing is a sooo cute.
Thanks!
Hi, it’s my first time watching you ❤ I love the ideas! I’m a crafter too, not as good as you but you gave me something to think about doing!
Thank you ❤
The silver rectangle is not a chaffing dish holder but a holder for a 9” by 13” Pyrex casserole dish. I say that because I have the same piece and it looks really nice when you serve your casserole.
This is my first time watching your channel and I absolutely love it.
You are probably right about that dish! Thank you 😊😊 So glad you found our channel!
When in doubt. Paint. I luv how you elevate and see the potential in adding legs. I too am all about the "legs". 😉
Paint is a miracle worker!
The serving TRAY I LOVE but the Bleached Basket is my absolute favorite... Great Video.
So glad you enjoyed it! The basket is one of my faves too😊

Thanks for showing that drill flip drive system! I think I know what Hubs is getting me for my birthday this month!
Happy birthday!! Hope you get one - they are a game changer!
Thank you for sharing! It is so important that people understand it is better for the environment and good relaxation to recycle and recreate.
Thank you for your words! I appreciate the encouragement 😊
I like watching your energy while i fall asleep.
That wooden bowl just needs a coat of olive oil.
The serving tray & the basket are beautiful. Great job.
