10 DIY UPYCLED HOME DECOR USING THRIFT STORE FINDS!

[@donnafoster2022]

Sherry, it kills me how you bravely whack off pieces and parts, pull out the glues and screws and go to town! If you’ve taught me anything, it’s to be unafraid when repurposing. And I especially love how you rescued that bench!

[@CanterburyCottage]

Oh, thank you, Donna! When I question whether to tear something apart, I always ask myself what is the worst that can happen? Of course, the worst is that I ruin it, but if it only cost me a few dollars, I figure the risk is worth it!

[@kaycrunkilton2817]

You are awesome, loved the bench makeover.

[@gailrhodes2859]

Love the bench!!!

[@nowvoyagerNE]

i was thinking the same thing. she is fearless!!!!

[@shalinighosh8413]

Absolutely agree! Love your make overs!!❤

[@donnamiller9915]

I bet your friend would like her bench back. Lol. Your imagination astounds me.

[@CanterburyCottage]

Oh, thank you, Donna!

[@jennekern2473]

The bench is my favorite.

[@liwianncook8001]

Bench was absolutely stunning

[@LWilli65]

You have great ideas and everything looks professionally done.

[@carmenacevedi3876]

Sherry thank you I liked all you transformed . The GIFT from your nieghbor is my favorite. Have a blessed afternoon.

[@CanterburyCottage]

Thanks so much! The bench was so nice, I really wanted to save it!

[@almawalker6617]

The little cabinet at 15:30-my dad was born in 1917 and would have been in middle school around 1930ish. He told me the boys were required to take a shop class and make something out of wood.i have a little wooden crescent moon shelf with stairsteps on it that he made, and a little corner shelf that one of my older brothers made in shop class. Sometimes they will have wood burning or carving on them- your shelf appeared to have both. When you see the very dark, ,thin, lightweight wood used in older decorative wooden items, they are usually a boy's shop project that he made for his mom. ❤ I have seen others in thrift store, and was tempted to scoop them up, but i just don't have wall space to save them all! 😊 Your shelf project turned out so cute! Thanks for the ideas.

[@51Lorie]

Really liked all the projects but I have to say, the upholstered bench is gorgeous and my favorite! Thanks, Sherry!

[@CanterburyCottage]

Thanks so much! I was so lucky to find that lovely fabric.

[@lindasmith5190]

The black cabinet with the floral poster backing is so beautiful.

[@ileensabean8765]

I thought the bird on a pedestal and the bench were superb. The magazine rack was very good upcycling too. Lots of those at the thrift stores.

[@lynnbrinker7668]

Sherry that cane bench is to die for! Love it💗

[@terrimaldonado8806]

I did not think I’d like the vase & she’ll remake but you honestly did a fabulous job!

[@carolbuchel3011]

I can't believe how that cashbox fit!! Wow! Loved all these amazing projects.

[@Sables123]

Amazing how you turn scrap into something beautiful. I wish my mind was as imaginative as yours. The cane bench, wow!! So enjoy your videos.

[@mafiastud6558]

The bench far surpasses anything that you have done in previous videos....True perfection!

[@karenedmundson5295]

The bench is my fav!!! The crewel fabric is perfect and upscale.

[@CanterburyCottage]

Yay! Thank you!

[@nowvoyagerNE]

the small wooden wall-mount shelf with the decorative door....could it be an antique wall-mount bread box? i looked it up to see if there were such a thing and while i didn't see any, i am convinced that's what it could have been used for, lol. the mini frame-within-a-frame floral print idea is fab! i like the little mini shelf and (what looks like an old) cash box combo. how interesting!!!! your "neighborly" bench looks lovely with the newly covered seat.

[@simoneshlomi3869]
