That spool cabinet 😮😮😮❤❤❤

[@patriciacushard702]

That cabinet is beautiful. You always make things beautiful but when your husband said he was going to fix the sway the bending in it and he said I’m gonna make a cut here in it before he said the second cut my brain snapped and it was like I know what he’s gonna do. I know what he’s gonna do. He’s gonna slice into it, but not all the way and then very careful pressure and pop it, be like you say the perfect yet how’s that go? Anyway it turned out so beautiful. I mean you wouldn’t even had to do that because of how old it is but it’s like you guys just know like the pieces talking to you and telling you what to do and that piece that you did for someone in an up in an antique store thinking that the lettering was realthat just shows how good your talent is from God and I love the birdfeeders. You gotta give the cats a TV with their own kind of channel lol and I love how you decorate and then you take down and you move and you add and it just turns out beautiful, so congratulations and thank you again for such a wonderful show.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you.. oh yes they watch cat tv.. tater is obsessed with the red string on my iPad. Makes it a bit hard to edit 😁

[@nancypisar8854]

Awesome

[@tammyboyle7362]

Girl you don't need to apologize about yourself ever... you always shine inside and out 😊 Nice save on cabinet, team work👍Chris should rent himself out as a honey do list fixer upper specialist 😅😊 Love the kitties ❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

😊 thank you

[@jerisharpe906]

You know what they say. "Live & Learn." All were winners, think the thread box was my number 1. Also loved Chris's toys at the top of the stairs.

[@beverlyhawbaker2988]

Chris is also very talented.

[@cassfonnesbeck8057]

It was so awesome to watch you fix up the spool cabinet. Loved Chris's wide grin at the completion of the bird feeder timber!

[@AnnEaton-xj6ic]

Chris is the man!! It was so educational getting to watch him fix the spool cabinet!! Great job!!🥰

[@lifeinlayers717]

You are glow uppers! 😊 you make things better!

[@dodipc]

Great transformation of the Clark’s spool case! Loved watching the cats observe the birds in your new bird feeders. Great video, as always. Thank you!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thanks so much!

[@rbirkheimer59]

The barrister was perfect for Chris's trucks, they look like it was built for them. I felt so bad when the Clarks didn't stay for you. Everything turned out fine tho with your magic touch. God Bless. Hugs, Rebekah. Tater is so ornery and very smart, I love they have their own hot spot!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@huntalot3054]

Love the barrister bookcase and the trucks.❤❤❤❤❤

Love your live cat TV!!!

[@karenn993]

You're both so fortunate to have the skills you do so that when things don't go as planned, you can move on to Plan B or beyond!

[@fernandasilva-cp8vi]

I love your house and love more your decoration just because i also love antiques and primitives and everything that you got. Thanks for inspared me

LOVE THE SPOOL CASE

[@ritahall8653]

I love the bird feeders

[@carolmcmanus-ox4vk]

Awesome job on the spool cabinet!

[@BeverlyGray-Alexander]

When I was just out of high school, I worked in an old store that sold fabric and thread and remember the store had one of these cabinets. You did a pretty job of restoring the spool cabinet. I graduated in 1954. Your project brought back some good memories. Thank you.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@deniseblackmon9210]

That spool cabinet looks amazing! Wow!

[@HelenLingenfelter]

Amazing!

[@LynnTyner]

[@kellihull7600]

AMAZING fix on the cabinet! I am sad that the Antique sign didn’t work out, I guess it’s just a God wink moment it needs to be in my home 😂❤ LOVE the kitty-tainment! They are so silly all stealthy! ❤ I saw Kathy on Kelly’s video too! How awesome!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

What an amazing adventure Cathy went on. She’s an amazing person. I enjoyed our short time together ❤

[@diannahartin8394]

❤❤

[@vickihanson319]

Enjoyed, your my kinda of people how much you love animals tells me a lot. Thank you. I love animals❤❤

[@dedeodell1016]

I like the idea of holding small nails with pliers. Saves the fingers. I have trouble holding the small nails.

[@martinaconroy2328]

Thank you for taken us alone with you and Chris . And your cute furbabys ❤

[@ashleysmart7042]

I love the clean and decorate video!!

[@karinaalatorre5038]

[@jeanmcbride5629]

Wow! Great job. I've wanted a Clark spool cabinet for years but not in my price range. My grand dad was George B Clark. Still on the hunt though.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

I hope you find one❤

[@jmcaulay577]

Check out Lone Fox he went to the largest auction in Texas. There is a section on day 3 he said was like a flea market what fun!

[@julsjewels3185]

Amazing job on the spool cabinet.

[@debkarcher1992]

Amazing restoration on your spool cabinet!

[@shellydehart8217]

Really liked the idea what Chris did for taking out a warped wood n it worked. Now if I only had a table saw. It’s too bad about the Clark’s spool box. We learn sometimes the hard way. I’m really impressed how you fixed it. It looks pretty darn good. I remember when you did that Drew’s & Son’s. I found that pretty funny that they thought they had an original. Wow too, the price for it was really high. I wish I could do a bird feeders like you but unfortunately our squirrels would have a hay day eating all the bird food. I have to use this piece you can buy that you put around your post, looks like an umbrella. They can be naughty squirrels. Love the Journey of you n Chris. It’s always good to see what the two of you are up to. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

[@tlur8813]

Yes you always inspire me!! I saw the sweet lady from the UK on Flea Market too!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

She definitely is a sweetheart ❤

[@jifferbvintageglee6834]

Have you thought about signing and dating your restored pieces? Maybe a label/sticker?

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

We’re trying to get better about remembering to do that.

[@martivasiliades8407]

Great restore on the spool drawers !

[@abbymoore9031]

I just love this channel! Thank you so much for what yall do. 😍😍

[@francasimonetta3849]

The spool cabinet turned out great I love Chris’s cabinet with all is beautiful toys Thank you for sharing ❤

[@leanne5416]

I just love what you and Chris do! Cats have such great personalities don’t they, love that you thought of them when putting up the bird feeders.❤

[@marycaswell6894]

The spool cabinet looks beautiful. Also, love Chris' truck display. That cabinet is beautiful too. Tator is adorable. TFS. ☮️💜

[@shunawestern9153]

Love watching as always, and so jealous one of our girls got to meet you and it wasn't me, but she looked a great lady and I hoped she had a lovely vacation. Oh and at the end, your cat looking at the birds like that through the window, he did make me laugh🤣. The piece you did in the end, I thought turned out really nice, the fact that when you wiped over the lettering and it deepened the colour, (wasn't as bright), I thought this gave it age, and that it actually looked fine like that. In the end, you ended up with a beautiful little piece of history. 🥰🇬🇧🐾🐾💖 Sorry Chris forgot to say, you made a wonderful job on the bird feeder 😁

[@miknosilanooram]

We saw the totality of the eclipse in southern Indiana. Awesome sight. You working in your yard gives me some motivation as soon as we get out of these rainy days.

[@joanwright4921]

This was so enjoyable to watch. Love your kitties and actually your bird feeders are rustic and go perfectly with your vibe IMO. ❤

[@dedeodell1016]

The top of your cabinet is stunning. You have such cool things to decorate with. I want you to come and decorate my house. You and Chris are fixers of everything. Love your style. ❤

[@barbgalligan4885]

Love the decorating and the spool cabinet is fantastic!

[@shanp8907]

That spool cabinet transformation was so cool! I love that you guys are not deterred by warping, chips, dings, etc… and putting up the bird feeder for your kitties.. just made me smile more. 😊

[@joycesnyder2988]

You just have the right senses for decorating and putting things together in the most interesting ways❣️❣️👍

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much 😀

[@gailhannon5794]

Love the ever-changing looks at your home! ❤ The cabinet at the top of the stairs is perfect for displaying Chris’ toys!🎉 The top of your cabinet is perfection!😊 Chris’ genius idea for straightening the top of the spool cabinet worked perfectly! Your re-wording was, too!❤ Thanking you for sharing!❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@vickymartin8879]

Love the spool cabinet, turned out beautiful! Your collecting passion for baby/big ben clocks touched my heart. My dad was a tool and die engineer for General Times/Westclox who manufactured those clocks. He started working for them in 1955 and retired after 42 years. Keep on collecting 😊

[@lisasmart1929]

Love Chris’s cabinet of old trucks and such, looks awesome. Love your redecorate too, neat ideas with your decor!

[@fernandasilva-cp8vi]

Oh and also love cats, have 2 and to see how you tret them as part of the family os just adorable

[@creativeroadsartbyjulialee9973]

I had to giggle when you said you could still use the chamber pot😂🤣

[@sharonwilson5489]

I love the little noises cats make when they watch birds xo

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

It’s so sweet isn’t it😻

[@lillieaguirre1889]

You should hang the antique sign over Chris's cabinet it would real nice.

[@roxiewallace2900]

Chris' trucks look so nice in that glass case. Loved seeing you two install the bird feeder and the cats getting to enjoy "bird watching"😅 😊 Too cute!

[@marthamcdonald6518]

Great trip with you tonight.. I’m back to 2 years of your utube videos! Love how you decorated the entryway!

[@ritacarbuhn4588]

Love Chris’ trucks and cabinet!

[@melonmahfood2439]

[@pigletscloset5677]

I wouldn't be able to part with that either!! Gorgeous.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

It’s pretty amazing.. imperfections and all!

[@kathydoyle-xm3xg]

Love the chamber pots. I grew up with an outhouse so no indoor plumbing for this gal. Tater did an awesome job supervising! How did you and Chris meet? Had to be a God Wink moment! It's so nice to see the two of you working together and have so much in common. You are truly blessed. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

❤️

[@cindypoling5922]

The spool cabinet came out great. Tater is a beautifully marked cat. Thanks for sharing all the decorating. So much fun to rearrange decor.

[@lynnsvintagevilla]

I love this old Clark cabinet. ❤️

[@margaretdillinger5090]

That update on top of the cabinet was super cool looking. I love how the spool cabinet came out,beautiful as always. Anytime I get to see the cats I really love it because I can’t have a cat now😢. I saw Cathy on Flea market Rescue. She was such charming and beautiful lady. She got to meet my two Michigan favorites so I’m jealous 😂. 😊❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Cathy is an absolute sweetheart. I enjoyed our visit greatly. What an adventure she was on.

[@margaretdillinger5090]

@@GingerChickRehabTheJourney I know. I think what did was so much fun and so adventurous. What a neat way to spend a vacation. I’d have to go to California, Michigan, Delaware, Alabama, Tennessee and North Carolina. Kinda up the road basically from where I live in South Carolina.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

It’s a finger saver ❤️

[@jennygouws413]

Yvonne, u should build a catio there. Perfect location. The spool cabinet came out beautifully❤

[@peggyfitzmaurice4100]

Always enjoy watching you redecorate. Us collector must shuffle it all so we get to enjoy everything we own😊

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Absolutely we need to see it all😁

[@kelly9556]

You are a wonderful gal!! You have such a talent, I so enjoy your videos and look forward to them. Have a great April!!!❤❤

[@lynnsvintagevilla]

What a beautiful Barrister cabinet!

[@mrs.pattiderge6743]

Hello. It was so fun to watch you styling the top of the cabinet. Thank you for sharing the whole spool cabinet redo, from Chris to you. You guys made lemonade out of lemons. Loved Chris flashing a grin by the birdfeeders. Now the cats can go "hunting"!

[@lindafrazier8799]

I think your hair is lovely up! Great finds as always!

[@silversmithclasses]

I have said it before and I’ll say it again….l LoVe old wood and the lettering turned out perfect……Chris…walk softly and carry a big stick, lol!!!

[@janashe8600]

Yvonne, the spool cabinet you & Chris refurbished is beautiful & I always love seeing Peach & Tater!! Hope you & your family had a lovely easter.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you!

[@amyharsh9714]

The spool cabinet turned out great !❤

[@suzanne9204]

Those big ironstone pots are called slop pots … really popular right now

[@genevievemurray7743]

I love your “treasures”. I’d have put the lotto ball on top of the hat box.

[@donnamcl6134]

Chris I saw this trick to hang pictures with the wire in the back. Take a kitchen fork put the nail between the prongs slide the wire over the handle then remove the fork. Yvonne "fontlab" on your computer is a great place to go when trying to decide on a font. You type in the word you want then it will show you what it will look like in all the fonts that are installed on your computer. This has been such a time saver for me. I love Chris's cabinet with his toys. You both did a WONDERFUL job on the spool cabinet. TFS

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you for those tips. Appreciate it greatly ❤

[@theresaevanochko4261]

I really love how the spool case turned out! The cats watching the birds are charming.

What Chris did to that cabinet was so fun to watch. Great job.

[@kendradeann1]

I got a spool cabinet at a garage sale for $40 and the top of it is curved just like yours was so thank you for sharing how to fix that. I’ll pass it along to my husband. ❤

[@VictoriaGray-q6o]

Love how you did the little cabinet,but I took a deep breath when Chris pushed down on the top and I heard it cracked.

[@gailrhodes2859]

Love the spool box!!!!!

[@kimbecicka9333]

Thank you for sharing Chris with us. Learning so much by watching him and you too of course!

[@kuttfam0191]

I live in the Upstate of South Carolina. There used to be a Coats and Clark manufacturing place around here somewhere. I need to look for a spool drawer like that. It will make organizing my thread so much easier! You both really did an awesome job on the repair/restoration work you did!!

[@creativeroadsartbyjulialee9973]

Wow your hair looks gorgeous!

[@mollycottontail]

I love the thread cabinet. Nice bird feeding station. Tater and friend will be entertained for hours. (I forgot the orange kitties name)

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you.. Peach 😻

[@joyceharper9839]

I had to close my eyes when you sanded the lettering off the spool cabinet lol. Have you ever used Danish oil or Watco's I think its called. But you have some beautiful treasures ! What are the balls in the basket up top one of your cabinets? Very nice decorating. BTW you could easily due a makeup video in your spare time. It always looks immaculate!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Danish oil.. we weren’t fans of the times we used it it never seemed to dry completely. The balls are old croquet balls. Very worn ones.
