Sherry, do you ever sleep, or do you lay in bed at night thinking of brilliant thrift store makeovers?LOL

I love birds, so the lovely gravy boat with the bird and the pansies was my favorite. And pansies remind me of my mother who always had fresh pansies in a ring-shaped bowl on the hutch in the dining room. Thanks for bringing back a special memory. ❤

Love that! I have a similar memory of my grandmother. She loved irises and grew every color in her yard. Every spring when the iris bloom, I am taken back to my childhood watching my grandma work in her garden.

I think you may single-handedly, be keeping Waverley Wax in business!! I love the house-shaped wine rack. I was thinking an antiqued/mercury glass mirror or diy-ed version would make a lovely base to hide the cross-shaped base and give a pretty reflection of the plant. Those William Morris transfers worked great! I could practically smell the musty trunk through the screen! 🤩🤩

The green clock that is now inhabited by a bird and greenery makes my heart sing (and is my favorite)! Your creativity and willingness to engage in whimsey is just so wonderful! I immediately went to your store, but it has been sold. I'm not surprised as it is just delightful! Your cat's litterbox with the William Morris rub on transfers is probably the most lovely litterbox in all of North America! And the bread bowl with more William Morris designs - how adorable for such a practical purpose! Thank you for the inspiration, Sherri! ❤

Oh boy - you really hit it out of the park this time, Sherry! 😲🤩 In a nutshell, I love numbers 2, 3, 4, 8, 9, and 10. 😁😘 The wire candlestick topiary, and the cat box trunk were particularly inspired. Imo, putting solid wood on the bottom of the wine rack would've distracted from the overall lattice design. I think, of the last 3, the gravy boat is my fave, followed by the mantle clock and the tin tile wall cubby. If I had a home where I could display these, I would try to buy them all. 😯😂 Thank you so very much for your great continuing work on creating these videos. I'll see you again next week. 😊😘🤗💖👌👍👋
