The most inspiring part of this video is your relationship with John. A lot of couples can't do projects together, but he's so supportive of all your ideas. Imagine doing fun creative work beside your partner while the rain comes down... so lovely!!

Hi, Mary. I have no idea of the time involved in making these videos, but rest assured they are the gift that keeps on giving, as in continual enjoyment to your viewers! Thanks for these "making" segments. Whenever I see one of your videos that is longer than 20 minutes, my heart takes a leap of joy!! You have such good ideas--thank you for sharing your projects with us. 💕

Absolutely love all these old barn wood projects Mary! John does a fantastic job! Thanks for sharing!

Mary, so,so love the display you and John worked on. It is so cute and proper for the content it will be holding. All the wood projects are so well thought out. I must add you have a very talented husband. Together you make a great team. Blessings on you both.

Fantastic work by all; love that it’s a family affair! Nice to see you stepping through fear and not allowing your past to dictate your future. Mary, you remind me of the Proverbs 31 wife ! ❤

Such great ideas from old wood, especially with the fruit fabric to make framed pictures! Talented you & John!👏

Mary, again, such AWESOME ideas. John and you just work so well together. Love, love, loved the canopy. Wherever you will be, I will be praying 🙏 for a beautiful and prosperous day. Blessing

Boards that are 12 inches wide with such history in them are absolute treasures. I'm so happy that you could use the old wood and spread the joy of holding generations in your hand.

❤ wow, that barn wood is gorgeous! Love the trays and fabric and wood picture frames so pretty and farmhouse style. Love to see Ethan helping his mom, just like your husband, you are truly so blessed in so many ways including a beautiful home from your parents and having loving family members around you.

I adore all your barnwood projects, and I'm thrilled that you may be getting back in the saddle to do a crafts fair!

It's always an extra treat to see you and John working together! I could watch these videos all day every day and never tire of them!

The cookbook stand is so cute! Natural finish is good, but they could be whitewashed or painted as well.

You know, Mary, one of the things I love about you is you don't waste anything. In this day and age, we need so much more of that in our lives. Thank you, for all the wonderful things you shared with us this week. :-)

Everything you do is so well done and so professional looking.

Love the covered stand. The cloth was perfect for it. Rustic wood is what I love. Holes and all.

I remember that awful disaster well Mary,I was so sad for you and the other makers who's booths were just ruined 😢. However I'm so glad you've had a change of heart and decided to set up a market stall stand,how wonderful it looks and your new items are just fabulous! You and John are just so in tune where creating is concerned, simply wonderful ❤. I'm sure everything will go splendid this time and even more positive that you will return home with a empty vehicle! Who could resist your spectacular makes,I know I definitely wouldn't be able to. Really pleased for you Mary.

❤ the barn wood! I have a few precious pieces of barn wood left from days gone by... you've inspired me to create something special!!!

I love the trays, the cookbookholder, the riser.....I think I love everything ❤

Mary, did I miss the new furniture video for your family room? Great projects! I loved each one ~ what a talented family who knows how to enjoy life! Thanks. 💕💕

“Everything is so cute!!! Such great idea’s! I am about to sand a very old Androndack chair that a friend was going to throw away and I’m going to bring it back to life! Old wood too! I plan on dyeing the webbing cord that has faded too! I’m looking forward to start working on it! You have inspired my many times and I still am! 67 years old and still keeping busy!

Yes, I remember the storm and the booth destruction. I do not blame you for being reluctant to doing another show. I love old barn wood - so much lovely character.❤❤❤

Love everything made with old wood. The pictures would be nice with the clothe vintage fruits coffee/tea stained to look older. These are great projects. Love your channel.❤️

Love, love,love your little Booth. The combination of natural wood and painted wood is lovely. The canopy is perfect 🥰

Hi, Mary time is just going by I remember the storm, I love watching your videos I enjoy watching John and you doing projects together you are always thinking out of the box. I love watching Twinkle by your side. I love all the projects that your husband and you made out of wood. I can't wait for your fall and winter project, take care until next week. Your KZfaq friend SHAUN 😊

Great use of the wood. Love that your family works together for your livelihood.

I love all of these projects. Old wood is beautiful. Barn wood or fence boards. Especially if the have holes etc. Great ideas. Thanks Mary

Amazing barn wood products! And the fabric items are super cute! I love how your stand turned out; the fabric choice was spot on!! How fun for you and your husband to create such beautiful items between the two of you! Thank you for your fun videos!!

Great ideas-you always do things the right way and it’s appreciated. I hope you do a show because that’s where I buy my unique pieces for my house.

This video was so enjoyable...all the projects ❤😊. Absolutely would love to see more. God bless you and your family Ms Mary🙏.

My favorite part of the video was seeing your face light up at the booths being built. A true creator and crafters reaction and I can understand that feeling! Loved the video!

Mary, you are so blessed by having John produce your vision. You are both SOOO talented and I love watching how you make things. Thank you. Donna xoxo

You guys do amazing things!

Love how everything turned out, especially the pictures and pillows with the fruit.

Beautiful upcycles. Love the little canopied shelf/cart. Hope your fair experience goes well this year. TFS

Your projects always amaze me. You are so crafty. Love it all🤎

I love everything you made. It's so nice to see old wood having a new purpose. Thank you for not staining the vintage fruit prints to make them look old. The combination of the crisp, clean print in the old wood is just perfect.

I love to watch you and John work. With the camera speeded up you look like busy little bees!😊. Everything you all created is so nice. I love, love the canopy over the booth too!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Beautiful diys Mary. What a great idea to repurpose wood. You and your husband did a wonderful job. Thank you for sharing these with us. ❤

Love all the projects with the barn wood!!!💖 I've said it a million times... but you guys can do absolutely anything!!! You look so tiny beside John and your boys! It's so cute!!!💖💖

The talent and gifting you all have! Just beautiful Mary!💖

Mary, so enjoy your videos especially the ones where you and John work together. So many great pieces from old wood. Love all of them, favorite is the picture frame with the fabric. Thank you so much for brightening my morning! 🤗

All these look amazing I love the character flaws of old barn wood too. You two are very talented for sure.❤

I just love that silly Pebbles! meow to her. Love all the crafts you made. looking closer, maybe that was Twinkle? whichever, love when older cats play like kittens 😻

I remember how terrifying that was. Can’t believe that was 4 years ago. Life flies by. These are such great projects. Thanks for sharing

Another inspiring video! And I love the fact that you even took time to share the sound of the wonderful summer rain!!

Everything that you, John, and your son created here is just lovely. Being that I live near Holmes County, (I’m in Carroll County) I can’t wait to hear which local festival you will be selling at. Have a blessed day. ❤

My goodness Mary, you are SOOOoooo talented! May The Lord our God Bless you REAL GOOD!!!!!! You & John are a dear couple.

Love all of your projects in this video. I love the old wood too - so much character. Thank you for sharing.

Every single one of the projects turned out awesome! Good job Mary and John! Good luck at the market or whatever it is! Hopefully sunny skies will bless you!

Those nail plates are genius! Thank you for showing them in use! Your new display "house" is adorable! Love it!

I love your barnwood items - so pretty!!!! I've often thought you'd do really well with your beautiful wares at Vintage Market Days! It's such a fun mix of vintage and new items ... such a lovely atmosphere. I look forward to it every year!

I love everything about this video… all the projects… wonderful!!! I can’t pick a favorite 😊 Enjoy your time at the event… wishing you lots of sales! I love your display piece!!!

Didn't have time to watch the whole video but all the made items look so nice Mary. Loving the display shelf and canopy.

Oh my goodness! What fantastic items you and John have made!! Everything is just perfect. The display booth is beautiful and fits your style!! Hod bless you and your family.

My husband is a designer for a truss manufacturer so I recognized those plates immediately. I am always amazed at how well they work because they seem so lightweight.

So many great projects Mary! I love the days I can spend in my workshop too. It's my happy place!

You and John are such a great couple! Love all your ideas and products! Absolutely love the gorgeous, little house that you and John made! So beautiful!!🧡🧡

I love how you show us the importance of your safety shoes right in the beginning! 🥰🥰🥰

Absolutely love your videos where you makes all your beautiful wood projects. I could watch this all day long

Your creativity is wonderful and your ideas just keep on comingYou are a gift to us all Miss Mary! You have kept me entertained for years now and I appreciate you very much thanks ❤️

Mary all these item you made are excellent, I have stacks of wood and haven't known what to do with it all, but I do now, I can't wait to start, thank you so much for the inspiration x x

Hi. I like you home and patio the rain beautiful.

I love watching you guys work together. Great projects!!!

You and John have the skills to build/make whatever you can dream up. I love seeing all the things you create.

The crickets and frogs sound beautiful in your voice over. I sure don’t want summer to end.

Wow Mary as always you and John doing great work . I wish you the very best at your craft fair . As a crafter here in Ireland I’m always on the hunt for wood !. Oh how I love the old stuff nails to ❤️💚

That looks so beautiful!! Maybe if you have that fruit fabric left, sell it as just a square in your booth.

Hi miss Mary what inspiration seeing you and hubby working together every thing u both did absolutely beautiful..loves have very bless day 🙏

I smiled my way through the video. Such a beautiful marriage relationship and product. Truly inspirational! My brother, sister and I were recently blessed to spend 2 nights at “Apple Blossom”. What a gift that time was!

What great ideas y’all have!💡Your canopy would look great with the white cottage logo!!! ❤ it all!

What beautiful things made from old wood. I love all of them but my favorite was the display stand. It’s so great to see husband and wife work together ♥️♥️

Love it all! You are so creative. Another great video Mary and John!

I could watch you work with wood all day long! My favorite project was the cotton fruit fabric with the barn wood frame. They are adorable!!

Absolutely love watching your videos. You are so talented. And the fact that you love the Lord makes me want to watch more and more.

Loved all the things you made and your little booth. I miss the summer rains from when I was young. It would be just a quick shower with no high winds, thunder, or lightening. We could play or walk in it without worry of getting blown away or zapped by lightening. It’s a rare thing when we get one like that anymore.

I love the character of old wood. To me it’s beautifully imperfect.

Love all of these projects so much. You and John work amazing together and it’s so beautiful to watch. ❤.

I have always loved thunderstorms, but in June a thunderstorm turned into a tornado and we lost our camper, and our camp house was damaged to the point that it had to be torn down. We were about to start building a house here, and it would have also been destroyed, so God was looking after us that we had not yet started to build. We were living between the camp house and the camper and are in another camper now full-time. We are cleaning it all up and preparing to build our new house. Thankfully no one was injured and insurance took care of us. All of that is to say that the thing I miss most of all is the beauty of thunderstorms. Now I have a bit of apprehension when a storm comes up as we were (safe, thank the Lord) in my parent's home next door during the storm. I hope that I can get past the fear again and see the beauty. Maybe once our house is built and we are no longer in a camper. 😅

This is an especially awesome video. You give such inspiration for those of us like me who wants to do more but have no space or equipment. ❤

Mary I was here on your channel when your booth was destroyed that day. I wanted to cry for you because I have sold at fairs and I could only imagine how heartbroken you were after all the prep and excitement of setting up for sales only to see it all in ruins. I'm so happy to hear you have healed from that event and are about to try again. Mary give it a shot! 🌻

Love everything. The pillows turned out so pretty, the woodworking is so beautiful. Thank you...

Mary, I cannot believe that was 4 yrs a go already!!! My goodness time does fly. That sure was an unfortunate event, but, as you said, thank God no one was really hurt. Glad you are venturing to try to do it again. Good for you. Keep the faith, go forward. Love your videos. God bless.

I don't know why but I was smiling through this entire video. I love everything especially the tray and the framed fabric! Awesome job.

I hope you do events again as I would love to see your booth and have others see your talent. Listen, you went through a traumatic event and don’t underestimate or apologize for its impact on you. Of course it’s been difficult to get over but be encouraged that you are taking healthy, mini steps.

Thank you Mary for sharing as always I adore your shop and the things that you and John makes I will most definitely be keeping my eye out for the cookbook stand. Thank you for sharing your love of wood and your love of outdoors I live in a city in California and it is always refreshing to see your videos when I retire I will be moving to somewhere like that were there are lots of trees and wood❤

I remember Mary when you were getting ready for the fair. I’m happy you’re ready to go back and sell all of your beautiful items, I wish I lived closer to you so I can purchase everything 😅

I love your projects. You are so inspirational Mary. If I wasnt 89 years old I woud be out in my shop creating some of your ideas! ❤

My husband kept bringing wood planks from work, and they’re just piled in my laundry room. He may just have some projects on his hands after this lol😊

Perfect all around

I hope it’s the Springfield Extravaganza. I am going after missing it 4 years. Love your projects!

Once again, terrific projects! Thank you!❤

Mary...very nice projects and they look awesome!! You & John have such a wonderful and loving relationship. It is nice to see y'all working next to ech other. Thanks for sharing!

I do remember the day this happened. It was devastating for you and the other vendors. I hope if you jump back in you will have peace about it. I love the rustic charm of the pieces you and the family are making today. I adore the shabby sheik style too. God bless and happy crafting.

I understand your feelings after that big storm. I also know that we can change our minds. The stand looks so sweet!

Aprons would be adorable in that material 🍎🍎🍊🍋

I love all the projects, old wood is wonderful! The display stand you both built is so cute and will draw attention to your products!

My sister and I came to OH to see you at the fair. We felt so badly for you and the vendors that were affected.

I love the trays!! I love old barn wood projects!

I love the stand with the canopy. You are so creative. All of your projects today are great!

Great wood projects! Thank you taking time to share the peaceful rain shower with us, love to hear the rain like that!
