3 yrs ago, it’s the first time I’ve seen it. I love all these baskets Julie. I used to have a ton of baskets too but with moving more than once,in decided I had to part with them. I’ve kicked myself ever since but you cant hang on to everything I guess. If it was now I wouldn’t have parted with them. They all look beautiful, you did an awesome job the way they were painted. I’m glad this one popped in so I could watch it.

[@kathybudd5996]

I have my morning coffee with you. You are my friend next door. I love your enthusiasm and creative urge. So much fun. Currently, my sweater pumpkins are popping up all over my house as I prepare for the Farmer's Market in our little town, Florence, CO.

[@gloriamartin4577]

Plant ADDICT here, too. Love them. My daughter asked me why I didn't have enough. I told her they MAKE ME HAPPY! I do look for unique shapes more so now, but I still love them all. Love your ideas. Thanks for sharing.

[@cherylmacedo5521]

‘Basket Hoarder’ is definitely better than a “Basket Case” lol I am so old that this is an ‘everything old is new again’, cuz girl I had the most spectacular basket wall in my kitchen of my first apartment. Wish I had pictures cuz it really was cool. 🥰

[@cherylferrell6687]

I also have an addiction for baskets. Thanks for the ideas and I am sure I will use them for my holiday decor. White baskets will look good with my French Country Theme.

[@brendatomlinson]

Julie, I just discovered your channel yesterday and I can’t get enough! Love your creativity. I immediately head for the baskets and metal area of every thrift stores. Finding a basket with metal detail is my favorite! Lol

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

👋 welcome

[@elainereynolds9532]

I LOVE the coffee pot with the greenery.....Really a cute idea..... I also Love the Basket with the open look with the Wood handles, the one you said was your favorite.......

[@n.w.414]

As soon as I saw the title I thought "Julie" and sure enjoy enough it was, lol. I love baskets too. I also love the idea of letting the blue and reds underneath show through. That is brilliant. Thanks so much.

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

I just can't leave a good basket behind

[@vickidunkle3698]

Oh my the oyster shell handles are perfection!❤😊

[@bonzojenks303]

Beautiful baskets. Such creativity wow

[@flippintreasureswithcindy]

Just watched this tonight and OMGosh how timely. I literally just looked at a ton of baskets in the antique mall today and tried to decide which ones to buy and why and how to decorate them. Needless to say. Money will be well spent tomorrow 😆😂 Thanks girl.

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

You're welcome, have fun

[@debbiebaker6546]

Wow! What a great utilization of oyster shells for handles!!

[@Free2Praise]

Have you ever seen an antique basket with a bar straight across the middle? I just purchased it but I’m not sure what the bar is for. Thank you!

[@MissMolly3377]

I am definitely going to get a paint sprayer, it just looks better, too. I need to get a compressor, as well, so I hope I can find one at a good price. I am waiting until Father's Day to see if they might be on sale.

[@chicboutiquellc]

Beautiful! Where do you sell them?

[@sharonsands708]

It has SO inspired me. I also love baskets and use them in every room. Thank you for telling about the wax and where to get it. I wasn't aware they sold the wax. I will definitely pick some up. Love it. Thank you for this. Wouldnt that last one(your favorite) look good with eggs in it?

[@qjomishler7359]

Omg... thought I was the only basket holder.. lol.. bags to.. thx U. ❤

[@KellyTrayah]

Oysters must be a southern thing since I'd never head of using them to decorate with. It's not my taste but it seems to be a good seller for you since I've seen many if your videos using them. I love watching your flip videos and I think I've seen them all now. :-( I love your personality and ideas! (I'm from Vermont.)

[@annalewis3356]

I thrift baskets all the time I use them in every room even the kitchen. I love baskets l paint them too, why to go basket lover.

[@janiceforkum3889]

LOVE the little coffee pot 😍

[@patriciaskitch2341]

Julie, leave it to you to make a 15 minute video totally about baskets, interesting! Thanks for all the great ideas.

[@debrapate971]

These are all adorable! I am a retailer also would you mind giving us some suggested retail prices?

[@natitrevino690]

Loved them all!

[@nikiwright8703]

You are so amazing!! I want to be you when I grow up lol... I have a question for you how do you destress a basket do you sand or wet wipe it? Thanks for sharing all your amazing wisdom and talent! 💕

[@angieperrodin5905]

Love love everything you do!!

[@bowler8]

do you have to dilute the paint for the paint gun?

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

Yes

[@angelavanburen1128]

Do you have a video on how to make a bow?

[@pammeinzer8178]

Love to watch and learn from you. Thanks!

[@kwatson8504]

I am a basket hoarder too! My husband says he will divorce me if I bring home another basket. I love hiding his clutter in baskets and it drives him crazy. Now I have friends & family giving me great baskets they find!

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

If you use them, I don't really see the problem 🤣🤣

[@margaretvillalpando7722]

Everybody in family calls me a basket hoarder too. LOL I can't resist buying a nice basket at the thrift store or garage sale, etc.

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

What else you supposed to do? Leave them there??? 😜🤣

[@Gratefulleo]

What do you clean the thrift store baskets with?

[@getlauriekor]

I spray mine with water. Dry it with a blow dryer ASAP. Or out in the sun.

[@carolmaclean1356]

I have a lot of baskets, what would be the price range?

[@shawnderouen2556]

Hi Julie, I just discovered your channel and I love the awesome ideas you have!

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

👋 welcome

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

Are you the same Shawn from berwick?

[@shawnderouen2556]

Yep that’s me.... love all your neat ideas!

[@ananeri3524]

Love it 😍....

[@MissMolly3377]

I was just looking at my huge stack of baskets, and wondering what to do with them.

[@chalkpaintandsawdust6820]

Loooove love your channel glad I just found you. I just jumped in on a vendor booth and I'm having. a hard time pricing you seem reasonable on prices I've seen but what factors go into pricing for you? Revamps and collecting no problems lol but I have such a difficult time with pricing items.

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

A lot of it comes with experience. I just price at what I think people will pay. I never look up anything. I price things to move, sell quickly. Don't make too much off my smaller items but then you make it up on your bigger ones. Turning $1 into $20 is my fav!! Hope this helps

[@juliegaudet7816]

Awesome. Just found your channel bc I was looking for ideas to paint baskets. Ppl give them to me as well as the ones I already have. Love your ideas and esp the oyster shells. My name is Julie and I'm also from the deep south and recognize that accent I think. Would love to know what general area you are from if you can say. Thanks for sharing and the baby is adorable. 💛

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

Hey ma'am. I'm from pierre part. I'm totally a basket hoarder. Actually sold a piece today. Attached 3 plate baskets to a shutter, added a little greenary. It was so cute

[@juliegaudet7816]

So Awesome. Thanks for answering back. I'm from the West Bank of N.O....nice to hear another LA accent. I can't wait to try some if your ideas and your recent project sounds cute. Glad you were able to sell it. I hope to sell some of mine in the near future. ❤❤❤ Oh and that sounds so cute attaching them to a shutter.

[@JuliesDesignsandSigns]

If you go follow my facebook page I post on there everyday. Feel free to use as inspiration. Ya'll have some great little resell shops on that end

[@juliegaudet7816]

@@JuliesDesignsandSigns I will def do that. I'm in South MS now and just really getting into the resale market and would love more inspiration. Thank you so much again. ❤

[@boymomlxx781]

I am also a basket hoarder 😐 but I can’t help it - I’m with you
