Change of Plans

[@josephrainwater1966]

😂😂 sorry I couldn't help it. I have been doing home projects the last 2 weeks for my wife and my daughter. Chris just got me with, why don't you tell me what I would like 😂. Love you real people ❤.

[@silversmithclasses]

I laughed out load!!!!

[@shellydehart8217]

Me too!

[@groovin2mytune285]

Hahaha! I love the intro with Chris. I laughed so hard.... that conversation would happen in my house.

[@7oclockmiracles88]

Love your a Believer too❤❤❤❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

❤

[@christibell5757]

The "Dream Team" continues. You two will be creating together for a very long time. As the plan comes together and he retires, you two will be together in your studio. We will continue to watch❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Yes.. no rush. We will figure it out. Thank you

[@judymelchert3966]

LOL.... I love Chris's comment

[@kathykimberlin5930]

I bought your jadeite cookie jar…..I have collected jadite for yrs….have two sets of dishes bowls galore…I was a dealer for yrs in McKinney, Texas. The hunt is wonderful! Dealers even watched for me! 😊

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

That’s awesome.. I’m glad it went to someone who loves “ the hunt” like I do. The excitement.. the unknown of what you may find🤍

[@paulavanduynhoven8951]

I’m totally in agreement about totes and lids!!!

[@cherylwilson8571]

So nice to see that someone else looks like they are being buried! Ha! I do not have the luxury of a shed or garage...so imagine this...this is the inside of my house!! I look like a hoarder! I'm working on it and organizing it. I get so overwhelmed by all of it, so I go shopping and relax like you! Ha! We are soul sisters, I just know it ha! Thanks again for another wonderful peek into your life!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. I know.. I know. Remember we didn’t always have a workshop. And I started in the attic 🥴🤗

[@RinaMeyers]

I LOVE the exchange between you and your husband! Sounds just like us!!!!

[@donnamcl6134]

So someday when I win the lottery I want a shop/studio just like yours! 😊 It is really hard working in a space no bigger than a walk in closet. (not kidding) AND I secretly wish I had a Chris !!!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

❤️

[@CharlesRoseberry-s8n]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@margaretdillinger5090]

Oh poor poor Chris, 😂. Gotta love a wonderful husband that works so hard. The work shop is coming together so nicely and it will the best organized work place ever. I understand what you mean about wanting to be able to just put your hands on what you need when you need it. I’ve got my stored in bins and even with all intentions of have them well organized, yeah, I can’t find what I need quickly. Beautiful haul. 😊❤

[@roxiewallace2900]

I love organization. So, it's nice to take your time and move things around as necessary. Also, I totally understand about wanting a nice "visual" when looking around the shop. Rolling carts for heavy items sounds perfect and practical. You probably already know this, but those large plastic containers that get heavy would be great for florals! Nice video! 😊

[@marilynlovett2327]

I always wind up with tops that don’t fit the bins all the time 🤷‍♂️ I love those vintage finds too. The workshop is really coming together nicely. I wish my hubby was organized.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@chrisabq1702]

Yvonne, love your organization ideas! Chris' area is so functional! Great Teamwork 👨‍🔧👩‍🔧! Love your found treasures...Fun video! ☺

[@jadestone8552]

Chris is making progress and you are organizing. I found a rusty crusty pig watering can today at a very poor Goodwill

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Nice find🐷🤍

[@patbarthe1219]

Everything is coming together nicely. Chris is a man with a plan!! Organization is a plus when working. Nothing is worse than knowing you have something and not being able to find it...ahhhhhh!!😊

[@kathykimberlin5930]

It happens to us all the time!

[@michelemoore315]

Do you rent Chris out for a weekend? Very handy and crafty, lucky you!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

😂💕

[@kathrynriggs2489]

My opinion of a workshop space is it must flow for the artists comfort and accessibility. Things should be easily available for use and putting away. Every artist works differently. Rock on Chris and make it yours! And I'm a little jealous of that bowling alley, lol. My best friends Dad retired from Brunswick back in the day.

[@None-685]

Cabinets are terrific. Great storage. File cabinets used like that with a wood topper is a nice work desk too

[@gailhannon5794]

I don’t blame you for wanting great organizational products that work for you! Great job on the bookcases, Chris! Great finds! Looking forward to seeing what you make!❤

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Loved Chris's comment about "why don't you tell me....." ,sounded like something my honey would say. Lol! Your 'shops' are coming along, it takes time to get it right. You found some great treasures. God bless you and Chris. 🤗

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@countrygirlgramma]

Love, Love, Love your treasures!

[@marlieblanton198]

Oh Yvonne, what happened to your baby Squirt? I'm so sorry. We just found 4 newborn kittens in the insulation under our house a few days ago. They were very cold so we got them warmed up and started feeding them. They had been there most of the night, my husband heard them crying. None of them made it and we are heartbroken. Our pets take up such a huge part of our hearts, don't they. Again, I'm so sorry to hear about your sweet baby. 💔😥🙏

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. honey.. I’m so sorry. That’s hard.. it wrenches on our hearts so. Squirt wasn’t aging well. I don’t think the moving helped 🥲

[@kellihull7600]

Oh my goodness 😂😂😂 Chris made me snort 😂😂😂 man organizing is SO HARD!!!!! I like matchy matchy and just when I think I have to get just a couple more, no longer available….. 😡 so I have decided that big pieces will match and small storage will be clear(ish) ! I have a few of the hinge boxes from $1 store! They are really neat

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. yes.. matchy..matchy makes me happy. But isn’t always possible. Just trying to figure out the flow 🫤

[@Prettynickle]

Love the haul. The workshop is looking sooooo good. So many projects.......yay!!!

[@tammiebeam507]

Totes are like socks, you can never find the matching other half.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Lol.. true

[@rbirkheimer59]

Everything is coming together. It looks so good in the workshop. Chris, you do a fantastic job. You are a woodworking machine. I hope your quest for storage works out for you Chickie. You guys are a great match! God Bless. HUgs, Rebekah

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thanks, you

[@donnadozier4294]

What another fun video to watch. The bins you got are great. I grabbed 3 from Dollar Tree for some organization. I never thought about hunting lids. I moved a lot of my "supplies" and couldn't find tops or even bins to match tops. The pain is real. Lol And they are stackable. I'm so glad to see Chris is getting his side together too. I have really enjoyed this channel and so glad it goes on. Thanks for sharing!❤❤❤

[@lorreprentiss3604]

There is a Sterlite Plastic Container factory in Leominster, MA which you could contact for your containers.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you for the information

[@jaynebrown693]

Oh looking good ! Love seeing that PALLET WALL AGAIN 🥰 I have lots of “tote tops”…. But I know where the bottoms are….kitty boxes …. LOL!!!! Maine Coon Cats need to have long boxes. But those lids are great for placing all the window A/C units on when storing. Easy to place a towel down and drag them babies to storage….UGH ! LOL! So glad that Chris will have rolling carts for his heavy equipment/tools ….after awhile he was going to have back issues 😬 and now you can take advantage of them to….win/win! I love those little drawers he made ! Gosh if he had time to make and sell ! Someday maybe 🙏 Another great little haul you got! Love your wall of vintage sifters …..dreamy wood tones and perfect patina on the wire 🥰🥰 It is coming together….EXCITING ! 🧡🧡🍁🍂🧡🧡

[@None-685]

Yes treasure hunting is fun the discovery of what you find is even better. Sometimes fantastic and sometimes a disappointment. But it’s all fun.

[@fayedewitt4183]

Enjoy watching how you are putting your shop together ❤😊

[@RetiredCheryl2021]

I have those flap containers in blue. So convenient! Everything is coming together. 👍

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Yes they are!

[@mariedrotar3215]

OMG Yvonne, those board and room signs had written on the bottom ( Beavers, Wyandotte) that is the town I was raised in. How exciting to see that!!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

That’s awesome

[@BrigetteFranklin]

I totally agree with you on the totes and lids girl! Gingers have to stick together!!!

[@lesliejackson8188]

*I loved this video SO MUCH, I WATCHED IT TWICE❣️🤣🖤😘🤍🤎🥰 What beautiful progress you and Chris have made in the shop‼️😊 And the kitchen and your new styling look great, too. I noticed several videos ago that the carved wooden duck decoy that Chris wasn't overly fond of (when you had it on top of your hutch) has been moved to the end on top of the upper cabinet on the right side of your kitchen sink...it looks nice there. Nice items you picked and hauled, too. I believe you are right about the jadeite cookie jar not being old; it looks like a reproduction to me, but it sure is pretty❣️🥰💚*

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you for noticing ❤

[@janareynolds9912]

Love your excitement over some of your finds. Your like a little girl on Christmas morning. (That’s a compliment not being sarcastic.)

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh thank you!❤️

[@sherrymcsherry2984]

Moving into a new space is a serious challenge. It takes a while to figure out what’s going to work and where the best placement for items should be. I think the more organized you can be, the better. Yvonne, you’re like me….you need eye candy. Yes, it’s his workshop,but you want it to be nice to look at. ❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@cindypoling5922]

Coming along great. Love the bowling alley counter top.

[@memphis2375]

So many things going on! My late husband had a problem organizing…so it’s good to see all this!! Love love love all your shopping finds too!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

💕

[@maggiepadilla6915]

The corner did look better on counter. Just an idea, you could stand one or two small cutting boards, layered , on the left side to hide cord. Organizing in boxes is the best way to stay organized, good call.❤. Always enjoy your channel.

[@marthadueck6461]

I know exactly what you’re saying. I’ve been cleaning out bins this summer and now I’m looking for bins and no lids or I have lids and can’t find the bins. 😖😖 I have not seen those small bins at our DT but those are a good idea.

[@conniesanders9755]

My husband also called thrifting my addiction. 😃

[@None-685]

Nice decor, I have a couple foot stools too that I use for risers. Keep in mind the rule of odd numbers for a vignette. 3- 5- and so on.

[@pennybill9237]

You and Chris are a pair to draw to, a real winning hand!

[@lisafriend5535]

You got some great stuff. The workshop is looking great.

[@tammywellsgarcia2377]

Great giggle moment 😂

[@ritahall8653]

Love the shaker

[@None-685]

That’s funny regarding lids. I have a cabinet of moss matched food storage tubs and lids. Drives me nuts. It’s like the missing sock in the dryer

[@terriallshouse1912]

oh my gosh moving and then trying to find things afterward is nuts! Dont be too hard on yourself Yvonne, you don’t have to keep up with all, sometimes ya just need a break somewhere haha. Your new space for creating is awesome! :)

[@arlenecurrie3368]

When I buy a tote with a plastic lid I give the two pieces the same random number. This keeps it easy to find both compatible pieces. Pick a number ..any number.

[@tlur8813]

Looking good!!!

[@terridantzic4361]

Hey Yvonne, It's a shame to have new house with a mouse invasion! 😂

I’m struggling to get back in my small basement craft area from myshe shed, reorganizing n pitching things out in both craft areas neuter basement crammed with things, ugh

[@cathyjackson5959]

I Love watching y’all journey to new home, new workshop, new garden, etc❤ Those little bins that are so full & bow can be used for your Beautiful florals!! Those new bins with attached top are wonderful!! I’m loosing tops to my big bins-Ugh!! Y’all prob know this already-I first bought the rolling floor dolly’s with 4 heavy duty wheels to move furniture around for $25 each at Walmart. Priced wheels at Lowes for same weight bearing strength-$16 each!! Went on Facebook marketplace and found 2 for only $20. My little God wink moment!! I was talking to my daughter yesterday outside and telling her about the ghosts’ you made with starch, cheesecloth, and and coffee!! We are going to do with my 7 year old grandson!!! I’m trying to figure out how to do flying ghosts for my porch!! And maybe even bats!? I also talked to her about your windows with the moss & dried flowers with “Rusted…Tin Roof” (from B-52 song) paper!!! We both Love that!!! Thank y’all for all that you share with us!!!💓💫💓

#1803! We sell those in our store called Yellow River Trading Company in Wisconsin. None compare to them 😁❤️

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

That’s awesome.. I actually just got my shipment to sell them in my booth. My friend shop that she retired from opened up the opportunity for me to be able to sell them. I’m so excited. Your right.. none compare❤

[@suebailey6893]

We have so many mystery lids and no idea where the totes are.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Feel you there 🤗

[@beverlybullock4150]

I just bought a mini sifter this last weekend. Love your collection

[@gailrhodes2859]

I was using the flap lid totes but the lids gave way or collapsed because I put a heavy tote on top of them so be careful not to stack them

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you for the tip.. I only plan on one on a shelf. At most 2 may be stacked

[@Nancy-ii5yo]

Jadite does not glow, just the uranium glass does. Love your large workshop.

[@shellydehart8217]

To be able to do what you n Chris do you have to be organized n you guys certainly do a great job at. It’s a real blessing that you found this house with a 4 car garage n other buildings. I’m totally with you at wanting something to look at while your working. It looks nice how Chris did it. Oh, I also like those type of containers. I’m a thrift shopper too. I love taking something old ( not to old) n make it over. But my problem is my house is full of everything I’ve made over. I don’t have a booth. I don’t sell on EBay or Etsy I just hoard it all 😆. When I get tired of it I give it away. Usually to my girlfriends daughter. It makes me feel good to do that. Watching your channel inspires me so much that I can’t stop doing what I do. Have a great day n God bless . ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟🌟 PS. That black stool was my favorite. I happy that you kept it. It looks so good where you placed it n making that sweet vignette. ❤

[@2lefeet986]

I completely understand the storage container lid issue and the need to organize. Newly retired and now a DIYer I need to do the same. Would you put a link to the boxes you got on Amazon? Thx for all your inspiration!
