Our son could not find dishwasher liquid. We were out. Yes….you know where this is going. He used dish soap instead and we had bubbles coming out of our dishwasher everywhere! We laughed so hard our sides hurt!😂🎉❤. We love him so we’ve decided to keep him!😂
Love watching you craft. I have a water story for you. For over 2 months we had water coming up through our floors. Hubby was adamant that it was the water heater, so we changed it out. Still had water. Hubby said it was just all the water that was left from the leaky water heater. Kept pulling gallons out for over a week. So, I decided to take it upon myself and called a leak specialist. Lo and behold we had a cracked pipe from our outside spigot. Luckily it was an easy fix and didn’t have to tear up our floors (we have a slab house). Water damage was minimal thank goodness. Hope that you feel better about your situation.
I LOVE you and your channel Courtney! My favorite is the cute little stand, love the stencil you made and the feet are so cute! ❤ Several years ago our washer overflowed 4 days before days Christmas, with 25 people coming for Christmas Eve. Dec. 26th ServePro came in and it took 3 weeks to dry out the floor, get new flooring, baseboards, drywall, etc. it was a controlled mess but a mess. I hope your floors dry out quickly and you don’t have lasting damage. I highly recommend having a professional come out and measure how damp your flooring, baseboards, and walls are, we had NO idea! I’m so sorry this happened to you!
They all turned out pretty but my favorite one is the strawberry. I love strawberries!! Excellent ids With the bamboo cutting boards!! Take care and God Bless y'all
As always, Courtney, great diys! I love them all!❤ My husband and I have had 3 flood situations! It was so frustrating!😫 When it rained for days a few years ago, the ground was so saturated with water, the water came through a tiny hole & flooded our basement with about an inch deep across the whole basement (length of the house)! It was terrible! This happened twice!😫 About a month ago, my husband was spraying for weeds in the backyard & the water leaked in from the spout! It was not as bad as the first 2 times, but it was still not great! As always, Courtney, thank you for sharing all of your hard work, creativity, talent, and inspiration! Stay safe, healthy, and positive! God bless you and your family!🙏❤️🇺🇸😊
@CreativeontheCheap Yes, it is, my friend! When we had our 1st flood, we continued to try to get the water out as it was steadily coming in, so I told my husband, let's just do a shot (fireball is our choice of alcohol) and just wait until the water stopped! 😆
Years ago, one of my sons closed the stopper of the bathroom sink and left the water on, I had to stop by the house on my home to another event and walked into my kitchen nook and it was dripping from the ceiling. Lots of work getting that cleaned up! Love all your craft ideas!
These are gorgeous! My favourite is the phone stand. I also really appreciated the tip for applying fabric with Modge Podge & activating it with the mini press for no mess! Never knew! It’s so fun to learn what you didn’t know you didn’t know and now know! Thanks!!!
Love all the crafts using the cutting boards. OMG... I had a flood in my kitchen down to the lower level family room. We had 4 pipes spring leaks at the same time. What a nightmare. Good luck. Have a fabulous weekend! Take care. Blessings 🙏❤️🥰🇱🇷🙏🙏
What fantastic Ideas you came up with! My favorite would probably have to be the wooden vase. I thought that was really clever as far as water leakage. Yes, we actually had that happen and my husband ended up buying some sensors. I think he got Them from Amazon. He Placed them behind the toilet, and underneath our sinks just in case there’s a leak the alarm will go off. He said he’d rather do that then end up having to spend thousands on new flooring.💕
The trinket tray DIY would also be very pretty with the tray turned the other way either like you did with the phone holder or hung on the wall... You could do several different one's to hang as a set on the wall... Maybe use the mini frame's with some little picture's of family or anything really, or a small bunch of pressed flower's.... You could glue some of the right sizes of assortment of shells... Or other beach trinket and use in bathroom or beach or lake house.... Gosh all kinds of thing's... Picture of fruit or a cow, chicken and pig... Different cow's pig's or chicken's... For your kitchen. I'm definitely using that one for a couple wall decor in my house and maybe some gifts people would love them.... Some would. Thank you for sharing.... God bless you and your family! Stay safe. *On Husband's account*
Lovely crafts, Courtney!! I love those bamboo boards from DT. They can be used in a lot of diys. We went through a flood, Courtney, back at a home we had in the city. It was awful. It was from a creek overflowing from too much rain. Muddy water and mess everywhere. It flooded our basement and everything in it. We had to replace TWO furnaces and TWO hot water heaters as it was a duplex we owned. Sigh!! Don't EVER want to go through that again....
Ohhh no‼️ I am SO sorry that happened to you❣️ I’ve had it happen 3x in the basement of my last house and on a smaller scale at my new house several times then recently had a water line under my kitchen sink blow too. So I definitely feel your pain n aggravation. 😔🙄😠 Get the water up as quickly as possible n keep fans rubbing on it even after you think it’s dry. It tends to seep under the walls n baseboards n possibly carpet on the other side of the walls. All of todays DIY’s are absolutely gorgeous‼️🤩 I especially love the phone/tablet holder n the trinket tray❣️ That trinket tray is very pretty!!! I love that you threw a Fall DIY in there too❣️😊💜💜💜
Those cuttings board hacks are spectacular, Courtney. Love them all! Thanks for all the great ideas. Ugh, I'm so sorry about your leak. It looks like it was quite substantial. I pray that the fix is easy and quick.
Signed up and ready to learn more with new adventure! I have a Cricut maker 3, hat, mug, and easy press, with mini press along with the new Venture that is still in the box! So, i have a small western apparel shop and i keep pretty busy. So i am hoping that this class will have option for all kinds of things.. Given it was cheap enough i have nothing to lose. Thanks for sharing all these great tips with the little cutting boards! I have the torch paste and i love that stuff 😊
These are all great ideas! I absolutely love the cell phone holder and think I will have a girl's craft night to make those! Sorry to hear about the flood! Hope all is okay! I am going to give Craftsy a try. I really want to learn how to sew! Can't wait for the next video! Thanks Courtney!
Courtney these cutting board ideas are wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing and for introducing me to “Craftsy”. I’m so excited to check out the classes & maybe I’ll see you there 😊
Courtney, as always your projects are amazing and really look forward to trying them myself, especially the Mobile Phone Holder. As for the water story, can definitely empathise with you there, as my washing machine has decided not to empty the water out at the end of a cycle, so at the moment Daughter and I hand wash in the bath.....Not good as I live with Degenerative Disc Disease, so end up in tears when I straighten up [I'm the exact same when I use the kitchen sink, just get more in the bath 🤣🤣] Hopefully I can get the engineer out to repair it soon, and hopefully helps you feel better about your situation. Love and Hugs winging their way across the big pond to you and your Family, as always Cxx
All of these are great ideas!! Thanks to your intelligence, I know how to make my phone holder stand up. I have been wanting to make something like this for quite a while but had no idea how to make it lean back. Thank you for this awesome idea!!
Love the beautiful and useful phone holder! The trinket tray is adorable! Love the stunning box, with the lace! The riser is amazing! Love, love the cutting boards, gorgeous!💚🧡💛💜🩵🩷💙
Yes I have had a water situation. My garbage disposal died because it was old and chose to go out with a bang and the whole bottom part fell and opened up the drain and food scraps and murkey water just went all over my kitchen floor and turkey is greasy and yecch all over my kitchen floor. I mopped, cleaned with ammonia 3 times. All the windows and doors open with fans going...It was a holiday of course and I had guests. Couldn't use the kitchen sink because a plumber wasn't available for a week. What a mess! Anyway, cute cell phone holder for a kitchen. Adorable wedding picture on your cell phone of you & Mr Cheap. Enjoyed the video and your signature keeping it real glue project. I've done it too only mine usually includes a trip to the hardware store to buy more glue or epoxy because I always run out mid project. LoL!!
I do something similar to your second project. I apply fabric to these cutting boards to make bow holders 🥰 I make them for dogs, but they can be made for girls as well. Many years ago our toilet ran all night, it was fun waking up at like 4 am to ankle deep water throughout the house 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Love all of them....my favorite is the riser....it's so beautiful I wouldn't put anything on it. I was getting my dishwasher replaced and the guy thought he turned off the water under the sink...but he didn't and shut off valve wasn't working. And he was like where is your main water cut off and I was like how in the heck am I supposed to know an answer to that question. I've lived in my house for 11 years and never needed to figure it out. We found it water was everywhere....going down the kitchen stairs. But I let him borrow my shop vac....sometimes...they are rare though that i was a renter.
Nice phone holder. Pretty trinket tray. Nice flower holder. beautiful riser. Love the torch paste. These are all great. My favorite is the phone holder. Sorry about the flood of water. When I was a kid we had a problem with the bathroom plumbing and was not sure where it was coming from, but it came through the ceiling in the living room. Not only did the plumbing need to be fixed but so did the ceiling in the living room. Hope you have a better day and a fantastic weekend.
Very clever ideas💡. An alternative to the paint used for the cell phone holder, by using chalkboard paint on the back section, the stand could also be used as a menu board.
Love all your projects! We’ve have a couple of bad water situations. Right after we were married we were renting a house and had a freak rain storm. Our house flooded! Water coming up from the floors and in the doors probably 8 - 10 inches. We had several rooms of new furniture. Water in all the closets ruining shoes, etc. Things stored under the bed stored flooded. It was a total mess. We pulled up all the carpet ourselves (no renter’s insurance) and tried to dry the concrete with fans. You never get rid of that smell. The owner’s finally installed new carpet. Thirty years later, two years ago we were visiting our daughter out of town for a week. We had a gasket on our toilet in our master bedroom that evidently had a leak. We came home to all the bedrooms flooded, part of the dining room and guest bathroom. Once again, a MESS. Our homeowners insurance was fabulous. They had ServePro here the next morning with gigantic fans to dry everything out and pull flooring up. It took over a week for those fans to dry everything out especially the wood vanity’s. The insurance also replaced all our flooring, baseboards in entire house. The flooring company moved and replaced all furniture. We had to spend a couple of nights in a hotel which the insurance company paid for. It was right after Covid so it took forever to get flooring and tile. The whole thing probably took six months to get back to normal.
You know it made me think of a book lol. You could adjust a little to make it look like a book with a secret hiding place or a trinket box( oops I’m talking about the vase with lace) so many ideas from this one!! Thank you!!
Beautiful crafts! I want to make the phone stand. 😊 In 2003, we had an ice storm and lost power. I also went into labor with our second. Our basement flooded a good 6-8 inches, b/c the sump pump had no power, and hubby was with me at the hospital. That was an exciting few weeks, cleaning out flooded basement and caring for a newborn.
Loved them all Courtney but especially the vase and the strawberry stenciled tray. Sorry to hear about your flood situation and now I'm worried about my washer which is in an upstairs laundry room! Yikes!
Love these ideas, especially the phone stand that you can make yourself. Our laundry room also flooded, about 2 months after we installed Pergo in the kitchen area and halls, including the Laundry room. Thankfully it was a simple fix, the drain hose just needed to be installed and secured properly. It caused the floors to buckle. We used a wet dry vac and huge fan for days. The floors did buckle some but oddly enough went back down. We live on slab. Hopefully the damage to your home wasn’t too bad.
ThanX for these awesome crafts. I want to try the painting on the boards and make them food safe. I think it would be cute to make them for my great grandchildren for snacks.
I love all of these but my favorites are the phone rest, the riser and the food safe board at the end. Or bathroom flooded. It was around the water heater and closet and all around our toilet. We thought it was the seal on the toilet, but it was a cliff outside.
We had a water situation as well Courtney, is there something in the water or some thing. gracious, i had watered my plants outside, i get started cutting the grass on my tractor and my hubby comes out of the house after getting home from work and he's yelling at me to turn the water off well that's what i thought he was saying, he was actually saying did you know the is water all over the floor in the kitchen, lol What is it with men, Anyhow i turned off my tractor and said no i did not know there was water all over the floor if i did i wouldn't be out here cutting the grass. it turns out on further inspection by a plumber, God love him, our outside tap had a burst pipe which was flooding the kitchen. we had to break out desk in the kitchen to get to the pipe but it turns out it wasn't my fault after all. Did i get an i'm sorry babe, nope and he went upstairs to put his computer away and left me to clean up the water. i said Really! i'm off out to finish what i started and i was mad. Instead of cleaning the water up on stop the flow of water he felt it important to take me off a job that takes a good portion of the day to finish and then i had weed wacking to do after the grass was cut. Have you had one of those days, when the easiest thing to do is turn off the water clean up the water on the floor with plenty of towels we have in our house and tell me about it when i got in. i had been on the go all day long and i was in no mood to mess around with something that wasn't my fault in the first place. Thank You Courtney for allowing me to vent on the water situation, i don't know why men do stuff like that, when its easier to clean it up and tell me later on than to pull me off a job that takes a day to finish its like i am the only one doing stuff and the only one who knows how to do stuff. Love the cutting board ideas Courtney i am going to have to go get more cutting boards. Thanks so much your a great friend. God bless
He sounds like a real j€rk. You should get rid of him and get someone better instead of putting up with it and doing nothing about it and then complaining. But most women don't do that, which is why they continue to do what they do. It's because they get away with it, and they get away with it because you let them.
Thank you for sharing the link and the huge discount for the crafty site. I will definitely be using this to up my game as I plan to start a side business soon and sell my crafts.
Courtney, I love everything you did with bamboo boards! The boards with lace with flowers is so beautiful. I made cell phone holder very similar to yours. Love it. I love the idea of trays - the berry is so dang cute! What great gift ideas! Thanks for sharing that idea! I’m so sorry you had this awful water issue! What a real mess to contend with! I had small water issue, but nothing as awful as yours! Sending you much love and hugs! 😊❤👍
My cat turned the water on in my bathtub 😮 (Lever handles) No overflow exit & the plug was down Good gravy- what a mess! All cute crafts! Good info on “food safe” paint🫨 Best transition piece- Phone holder❤
Oh gosh! Were you home when that happened? My dog, Lucky, once managed to turn the gas on to our fireplace. I was gone with the kids and hubby was home. When we came home, the whole house smelled like gas and we had to call the fire department. Pets can be tricky! 😆
Love these ideas. I have a granddaughter who recently became engaged & is having an engagement party (things sure have changed since I was young 🙃) & as always wants her Mamaw to make some decor & trays & all the things. Needless to say, this video packed tons of inspiration for this ol' granny who needs to "catch up" with the times...thank you Courtney 💕!
I LOVE THE SERVING BOARDS FROM THE CUTTING BOARDS! ~ CAN YOU DIY A WAY TO MAKE THEM IN A SERVING TRAY FOR PARTIES FOR GUEST TO WALK AROUND = WITHOUT FOOD FALLING OFF AND HOW TO HOLD THEM AS THEY ARE MINGLING WITH GUEST? ---- I WAS THINKING POP SOCKETS FROM DT, WOULD THAT WORK.....THE BALL IN YOUR COURT, SINCE YOU ARE THE CREATIVE GENIUS . THANK YOU! HAPPY FATHER'S DAY.
Oh hun I'm so sorry about the water situation.😔 I truly feel for you. I'm afraid my story won't make you feel much better tho😢 We had a faulty part under our dishwasher burst. It was a manufacturing defect. We had the rolled linoleum which is water proof..BUT when we had the house built apparently the builders did not install it under the dishwasher. So when it leaked it went under the linoleum and into the subflooring and into the rooms below. So on July 4th last year the floor started to bubble and there was water trapped under the floor! We had to pull apart my whole kitchen(it's a 700sq foot kitchen). The HVAC system couldn't handle the excess moisture leaking into the walls, so on all the cold pipes through the house, the moisture accumulated, and it started to rain in random parts of our house. The leak went through 2 floors and 3 rooms plus the 4 random rain places. The wood and dry wall and even floors were destroyed. Including the home theater my husband built for our family.😔 The remediation team came out right away and threw out our flooring and cabinets and cut open so many walls! They left fans and industrial dehumidifiers. It sounded like jet engine noise night and day for 10 days! But our floors were wide open to subfloor for months and we had to wear shoes in the house) The renovation part took so much longer. We couldn't find the exact replacements for anything even tho our home was only 3 years old. All of the things we had picked out (cabinets, trim, flooring, paint) had been discontinued 😢. It was 9 months and 25k later before we got our home back. My husband ended up doing most of the work as the remediation team was never available and taking so long and left us with open floors, no cabinets and no kitchen sink. We are thankful when we got insurance we signed up for the appliance malfunction coverage. We were out some money (they didn't cover the dishwasher itself or the HVAC issues). But I wouldn't wish this on anyone. 😢Water and fire are terrible. Please make sure all places are gutted and dried well before renovation so mold won't grow. Also, we now have sensors connected to our phones (got on Amazon) that tell us if there is a leak right away. Also we got a drip pan for under the dishwasher.(apparently these exist but almost no one knows about the dishwasher ones because most times the water comes out the front and you detect it) but the tray ensures that the water comes forward and not under the floor so it can be caught right away. They make trays for washers, too. Good luck to you..sending prayers and love ❤
I feel your pain! Not water, but liquid soap. At midnight, yes midnight, my new, full 64 oz jug of laundry soap "jumped" off the shelf, hit the washer, the cap came off, and bounced in the floor. By the time I got to it, the soap was E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E! Water would've been so much easier to mop up! It just kept getting foamier and foamier. And very slick! One thing I did learn: the heavy washing machine moves easily on a soapy floor!!
Water damage is the worst! The day before thanksgiving in 2023 our 2 flood water heater burst. Apparently whoever installed it drilled a hole in the catch pan, so it leaked downstairs. Our kitten is actually the one that alerted us to it. Because of the holiday weekend, we couldn’t get a plumber until Monday, and the new one didn’t get delivered until Wednesday. So a whole week of water leakage cause major drywall, floor and carpet damage. Once remediated and mold tested, then we had to find a contractor because remediation company wanted to charge us 3x more than what a contractor would charge. Total was around $7,000 and took about 4-5 months to complete. So now we have a tankless water heater, so hopefully no leaks in the future from it. Another easy thing to switch on the regular is a wax ring on your upstairs toilet. That was another leak years ago. Easier to prevent than repair. Good luck with your cleanup! Also loved the ideas in this video!
I absolutely love the phone holder. A new recipe you should try is Longhorn garlic parmesan crusted chicken. It tastes just like the restaurants but better. PS, not water related but we left our freezer open a few summers ago when we were gone to Maine for the week. Just say it wasn't a pleasant smell.
Our son could not find dishwasher liquid. We were out. Yes….you know where this is going. He used dish soap instead and we had bubbles coming out of our dishwasher everywhere! We laughed so hard our sides hurt!😂🎉❤. We love him so we’ve decided to keep him!😂
Happened to me one Mother’s Day when my daughter decided to help me without my knowledge. We never saw so many bubbles
Love watching you craft. I have a water story for you. For over 2 months we had water coming up through our floors. Hubby was adamant that it was the water heater, so we changed it out.

I plan to decoupage some of my Mom's old recipes to give her grandkids for Christmas as a memory of her.
Love that!
That is such a sweet idea! They will love having that memory! ❤
Love that idea!
Smart idea!!
❤❤❤
I have stack of the bamboo cutting boards. Thanks for the ideas!!
I LOVE you and your channel Courtney! My favorite is the cute little stand, love the stencil you made and the feet are so cute! ❤

Beautiful diys. Love the phone easel

I've lived in my house for 11 years and never needed to figure it out. We found it water was everywhere....going down the kitchen stairs. But I let him borrow my shop vac....sometimes...they are rare though that i was a renter.
Nice phone holder. Pretty trinket tray. Nice flower holder. beautiful riser. Love the torch paste. These are all great. My favorite is the phone holder. Sorry about the flood of water. When I was a kid we had a problem with the bathroom plumbing and was not sure where it was coming from, but it came through the ceiling in the living room. Not only did the plumbing need to be fixed but so did the ceiling in the living room. Hope you have a better day and a fantastic weekend.
Oh gosh! That is a lot of damage!
I really loved the wood vase. I didn't think I would but the multiple rows of lace made it fabulous!
Thank you! 😊 I am glad I added that! I had thought about paint, but the lace just takes it up a notch!
I love the little trinket tray! So sweet! I may make a similar one for my granddaughter.
Not sure how I missed this one. The one you added lace to and made a vaseis my favorite. So cute.
All are my favorite. ❤❤❤
I feel like the easel would be a great way to display something also ❤ love it
So many great creations! Thanks for keeping it real….been there so many many times myself 😮
Always!
Love the vase and riser
Very clever ideas💡. An alternative to the paint used for the cell phone holder, by using chalkboard paint on the back section, the stand could also be used as a menu board.
Love all your projects! We’ve have a couple of bad water situations. Right after we were married we were renting a house and had a freak rain storm. Our house flooded! Water coming up from the floors and in the doors probably 8 - 10 inches. We had several rooms of new furniture. Water in all the closets ruining shoes, etc. Things stored under the bed stored flooded. It was a total mess. We pulled up all the carpet ourselves (no renter’s insurance) and tried to dry the concrete with fans. You never get rid of that smell. The owner’s finally installed new carpet. Thirty years later, two years ago we were visiting our daughter out of town for a week. We had a gasket on our toilet in our master bedroom that evidently had a leak. We came home to all the bedrooms flooded, part of the dining room and guest bathroom. Once again, a MESS. Our homeowners insurance was fabulous. They had ServePro here the next morning with gigantic fans to dry everything out and pull flooring up. It took over a week for those fans to dry everything out especially the wood vanity’s. The insurance also replaced all our flooring, baseboards in entire house. The flooring company moved and replaced all furniture. We had to spend a couple of nights in a hotel which the insurance company paid for. It was right after Covid so it took forever to get flooring and tile. The whole thing probably took six months to get back to normal.
Oh gosh! What a nightmare to go through!
👋👋❤️ favorite was the bamboo flower vase. Uggg hope you didn’t any damage from the water.
Love that riser!
You know it made me think of a book lol. You could adjust a little to make it look like a book with a secret hiding place or a trinket box( oops I’m talking about the vase with lace) so many ideas from this one!! Thank you!!
Love the phone holder, this will be my next craft for sure. Thanks
Thank you!
@@CreativeontheCheapwhich folkart stencil did you use? The link doesn't seem to be the same one...TY
@@8NoBoundariesInLife8 I could could not find my exact one. 😕
Great idea for diys using the cutting boards I love them all 🤎🤎🤎🤎
Thank you!
Beautiful crafts! I want to make the phone stand. 😊
In 2003, we had an ice storm and lost power. I also went into labor with our second. Our basement flooded a good 6-8 inches, b/c the sump pump had no power, and hubby was with me at the hospital. That was an exciting few weeks, cleaning out flooded basement and caring for a newborn.
Oh no! Water can be a blessing and a curse!
I really love the phone easel phone holder! Great idea!
The vase was my favorite
Loved them all Courtney but especially the vase and the strawberry stenciled tray. Sorry to hear about your flood situation and now I'm worried about my washer which is in an upstairs laundry room! Yikes!
Thank you so much! I try to always be home when I am running the washing machine! Thank goodness I was!
Love these ideas, especially the phone stand that you can make yourself. Our laundry room also flooded, about 2 months after we installed Pergo in the kitchen area and halls, including the Laundry room. Thankfully it was a simple fix, the drain hose just needed to be installed and secured properly. It caused the floors to buckle. We used a wet dry vac and huge fan for days. The floors did buckle some but oddly enough went back down. We live on slab. Hopefully the damage to your home wasn’t too bad.
Oh man! Glad to hear you were able to remedy the damage!
Beautiful the last ones I like❤❤
My favorite was the little shelf for your phone! But all were cute!
All of these were great ideas. Thank you💕💕
Glad you like them!
I love all of them. But if I had to pick 1 it would be the lace vase❤
Very pretty ❤
ThanX for these awesome crafts. I want to try the painting on the boards and make them food safe. I think it would be cute to make them for my great grandchildren for snacks.
Great idea!
These are great ideas. I love the phone holder.
Love the phone holder and I love the mini food boards!!!
I love the cell phone holder so much I'm going to make that next!❤
great phone holder idea! I'm going to try it!
I love all of these but my favorites are the phone rest, the riser and the food safe board at the end. Or bathroom flooded. It was around the water heater and closet and all around our toilet. We thought it was the seal on the toilet, but it was a cliff outside.
These are fantastic ideas❤
All of these are fantastic! I esp. love the phone holder. Sorry you had that water issue. I hope everything is all better now.
Awesome ideas, love the phone holder and the riser, but they all came out amazing.
All nice! My favorite was the phone stand!
Thank you! I have been using it!
All the projects were great! Thanks for ideas. Terri
We had a water situation as well Courtney, is there something in the water or some thing. gracious, i had watered my plants outside, i get started cutting the grass on my tractor and my hubby comes out of the house after getting home from work and he's yelling at me to turn the water off well that's what i thought he was saying, he was actually saying did you know the is water all over the floor in the kitchen, lol What is it with men, Anyhow i turned off my tractor and said no i did not know there was water all over the floor if i did i wouldn't be out here cutting the grass. it turns out on further inspection by a plumber, God love him, our outside tap had a burst pipe which was flooding the kitchen. we had to break out desk in the kitchen to get to the pipe but it turns out it wasn't my fault after all. Did i get an i'm sorry babe, nope and he went upstairs to put his computer away and left me to clean up the water. i said Really! i'm off out to finish what i started and i was mad. Instead of cleaning the water up on stop the flow of water he felt it important to take me off a job that takes a good portion of the day to finish and then i had weed wacking to do after the grass was cut. Have you had one of those days, when the easiest thing to do is turn off the water clean up the water on the floor with plenty of towels we have in our house and tell me about it when i got in. i had been on the go all day long and i was in no mood to mess around with something that wasn't my fault in the first place. Thank You Courtney for allowing me to vent on the water situation, i don't know why men do stuff like that, when its easier to clean it up and tell me later on than to pull me off a job that takes a day to finish its like i am the only one doing stuff and the only one who knows how to do stuff. Love the cutting board ideas Courtney i am going to have to go get more cutting boards. Thanks so much your a great friend. God bless
Oh man! What a headache! Sorry to hear that happened to you! Water can be great, but it can also be so damaging!
He sounds like a real j€rk. You should get rid of him and get someone better instead of putting up with it and doing nothing about it and then complaining. But most women don't do that, which is why they continue to do what they do. It's because they get away with it, and they get away with it because you let them.
Loved the phone stand. I used torch paste for the first time recently to burn wooden keychains. I couldn’t believe how easy it was.
Right? I love Torch Paste!
Love the cell phone holder. So creative. TFS
Thanks so much!
Such a cute idea.
The cell phone holder and the last one I liked the most
Thank you for sharing the link and the huge discount for the crafty site. I will definitely be using this to up my game as I plan to start a side business soon and sell my crafts.
Glad to hear that! I am determined to up my sewing and crochet skills and I am having a great time going through classes!
Love the use of your stencil with the cell phone Holder..
I've got a collection of stencils.I rarely use need to bring them out . 😁
great video what a fab idea love it. xxx
Great idea! I'll make me one now.❤
Courtney, I love everything you did with bamboo boards! The boards with lace with flowers is so beautiful. I made cell phone holder very similar to yours. Love it. I love the idea of trays - the berry is so dang cute! What great gift ideas! Thanks for sharing that idea! I’m so sorry you had this awful water issue! What a real mess to
contend with! I had small water issue, but nothing as awful as yours! Sending you much love and hugs! 😊❤👍
Thank you so much!
Love the phone holder. I picked up a decorative cutting board on clearance in the store where I work and this is perfect!
That is awesome!
Such great ideas.
Thank you! 😊
I have a few of these bamboo cutting boards so I think I’ll make the torch paste cutting boards to sell at craft shows. Thanks for sharing!
yay!
These projects all turned out so cute. I love the cell phone holder and the vase. Awesome!! Oh No!! so sorry for your flood.
Thanks so much!
My cat turned the water on in my bathtub 😮
(Lever handles)
No overflow exit & the plug was down
Good gravy- what a mess!
All cute crafts!
Good info on “food safe” paint🫨
Best transition piece-
Phone holder❤
Oh gosh! Were you home when that happened? My dog, Lucky, once managed to turn the gas on to our fireplace. I was gone with the kids and hubby was home. When we came home, the whole house smelled like gas and we had to call the fire department. Pets can be tricky! 😆
Actually, we were not home. We were at my son‘s graduation party so that was a fun night of ripping up carpet! But lesson learned.
😳😫😝
Courtney these are all great ❤ My favorite was the trinket tray. I want to try that technique to reactivate the mod podge! TFS
Cute projects! I look forward to hearing your future findings on making things food safe. Thanks for doing the research!
Love these ideas. I have a granddaughter who recently became engaged & is having an engagement party (things sure have changed since I was young 🙃) & as always wants her Mamaw to make some decor & trays & all the things. Needless to say, this video packed tons of inspiration for this ol' granny who needs to "catch up" with the times...thank you Courtney 💕!
Love that!
I LOVE THE SERVING BOARDS FROM THE CUTTING BOARDS! ~ CAN YOU DIY A WAY TO MAKE THEM IN A SERVING TRAY FOR PARTIES FOR GUEST TO WALK AROUND = WITHOUT FOOD FALLING OFF AND HOW TO HOLD THEM AS THEY ARE MINGLING WITH GUEST? ---- I WAS THINKING POP SOCKETS FROM DT, WOULD THAT WORK.....THE BALL IN YOUR COURT, SINCE YOU ARE THE CREATIVE GENIUS . THANK YOU! HAPPY FATHER'S DAY.
Hmmmm, I’ll have to think about that!
Oh hun I'm so sorry about the water situation.😔 I truly feel for you. I'm afraid my story won't make you feel much better tho😢 We had a faulty part under our dishwasher burst. It was a manufacturing defect. We had the rolled linoleum which is water proof..BUT when we had the house built apparently the builders did not install it under the dishwasher. So when it leaked it went under the linoleum and into the subflooring and into the rooms below. So on July 4th last year the floor started to bubble and there was water trapped under the floor! We had to pull apart my whole kitchen(it's a 700sq foot kitchen). The HVAC system couldn't handle the excess moisture leaking into the walls, so on all the cold pipes through the house, the moisture accumulated, and it started to rain in random parts of our house. The leak went through 2 floors and 3 rooms plus the 4 random rain places. The wood and dry wall and even floors were destroyed. Including the home theater my husband built for our family.😔 The remediation team came out right away and threw out our flooring and cabinets and cut open so many walls! They left fans and industrial dehumidifiers. It sounded like jet engine noise night and day for 10 days! But our floors were wide open to subfloor for months and we had to wear shoes in the house) The renovation part took so much longer. We couldn't find the exact replacements for anything even tho our home was only 3 years old. All of the things we had picked out (cabinets, trim, flooring, paint) had been discontinued 😢. It was 9 months and 25k later before we got our home back. My husband ended up doing most of the work as the remediation team was never available and taking so long and left us with open floors, no cabinets and no kitchen sink. We are thankful when we got insurance we signed up for the appliance malfunction coverage. We were out some money (they didn't cover the dishwasher itself or the HVAC issues). But I wouldn't wish this on anyone. 😢Water and fire are terrible. Please make sure all places are gutted and dried well before renovation so mold won't grow. Also, we now have sensors connected to our phones (got on Amazon) that tell us if there is a leak right away. Also we got a drip pan for under the dishwasher.(apparently these exist but almost no one knows about the dishwasher ones because most times the water comes out the front and you detect it) but the tray ensures that the water comes forward and not under the floor so it can be caught right away. They make trays for washers, too. Good luck to you..sending prayers and love ❤
Hi Courtney. Good to catch your video. Love all of these simple yet so useful crafts. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Thanks so much! 😊
I feel your pain! Not water, but liquid soap. At midnight, yes midnight, my new, full 64 oz jug of laundry soap "jumped" off the shelf, hit the washer, the cap came off, and bounced in the floor. By the time I got to it, the soap was E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E! Water would've been so much easier to mop up! It just kept getting foamier and foamier. And very slick! One thing I did learn: the heavy washing machine moves easily on a soapy floor!!
Oh my goodness! That is nuts! At least your laundry room was extra clean, right? 😆
I loved all but I think my favorite was the one that you made like a little table to hold a candle then I loved the last one
Awww, thank you!
Water damage is the worst! The day before thanksgiving in 2023 our 2 flood water heater burst. Apparently whoever installed it drilled a hole in the catch pan, so it leaked downstairs. Our kitten is actually the one that alerted us to it. Because of the holiday weekend, we couldn’t get a plumber until Monday, and the new one didn’t get delivered until Wednesday. So a whole week of water leakage cause major drywall, floor and carpet damage. Once remediated and mold tested, then we had to find a contractor because remediation company wanted to charge us 3x more than what a contractor would charge. Total was around $7,000 and took about 4-5 months to complete. So now we have a tankless water heater, so hopefully no leaks in the future from it. Another easy thing to switch on the regular is a wax ring on your upstairs toilet. That was another leak years ago. Easier to prevent than repair. Good luck with your cleanup!
Also loved the ideas in this video!
I absolutely love the phone holder. A new recipe you should try is Longhorn garlic parmesan crusted chicken. It tastes just like the restaurants but better. PS, not water related but we left our freezer open a few summers ago when we were gone to Maine for the week. Just say it wasn't a pleasant smell.
Thank you! Oh no! I can only imagine coming back to that!
@@CreativeontheCheap you're welcome. Yes, it was awful.
I liked the riser and the phone stand best but all were cute.
