If you need the wicker looking balls for project one, the dollar tree has them in the pet dep. They are cat toys and have bells inside but are easy to remove. I have used them for projects in the past.

[@CanterburyCottage]

That is a great idea! I’m going to pin this comment at the top, so other viewers can see this tip! Thanks for sharing, Rosemary!

Both signs are great, their beauty depends on the background of your wall. But black always makes a more dramatic impact. Your unique ideas just keep flowing like a never ending stream, amazing. Your professionalism is greatly appreciated.

[@elizabethwright4623]

I love the Buckingham Palace pillow at the end. Queen Elizabeth was a truly remarkable woman.

[@debrahardy8689]

Sherry, I just loved the metal sign you did, and I don't think you made a mistake, at all, painting the background black. It looked perfect and made the sign pop. I'm a decorative artist, and black, to me, always helps to make you work and colors stand out. You did good, keep up the good work.

[@Lizzies-mom]

I liked the white background on the sign most. Appreciated the tribute to the Queen 👑

Janell here, loved the candles that you spooned wax over. To buy them looking old fashioned like that is really spendy. Thanks for showing me how easy it is to get that same look. Can't wait to try it!

[@hopealdridge1134]

Sherry.....You have done it again....I am totally blown away by all these projects/ideas !!! You are truly an amazing creator ! I love each one, but the Pumpkin Patch sign is my favorite. I also think the black looks best on the metal sign....it makes the sign look even older. THANK YOU Sherry for all your work....I enjoy your channel so much !

Great projects!! I can see the wicker balls in a wreath, also. The metal sign looks good in both colors, but I prefer the black.

Hi Sherry! Just wanted to stop a minute and say thank you for all the time and effort you put into your videos. I recently stumbled upon your channel and I just love it!!!! Truth be told, I am a bit envious of your craft room / work room and how it looks now that it's been reorganized. Amazing to watch you grab things from your magical stash and turn thrift or junk into such wonderful and creative things!!!!! God bless!!!

[@CanterburyCottage]

Oh, Reba, you are so very sweet! I am so glad that you are enjoying my videos. My craft room needs a little clean up right now. I am still struggling keeping my fake florals organized. The lidded containers are not convenient. I’m still working on a better system.

Fantastic projects, Sherry! And as a former teacher myself I have lots of “items” I hoarded….er… I mean, saved. Although my family considers me a junk collector, I like to think of myself as a “conservationist “ 😂. In any event, I can use just about every single one of these wonderfully creative ideas. I think I need to see more so I can dazzle my family. 👏🏼🇨🇦

You could keep them every year - cutting down on clutter, but can repaint them to match new fall decor! They would also make a beautiful outdoor wreath!
