I always check out artwork and frames, housewares, furniture, jewelry, books and music. I don't have the patience or interest to dig through clothes unless I am building a Halloween costume (found a perfect orange turtleneck when I was Velma Dinkley from Scooby Doo), although one day my husband and I found a shipment of brand new dress shirts and suits that had been donated from an upscale men's shop and we snatched up a shirt and jacket for him.

[@maryellenyork2819]

Since I and everyone I know have enough, I look for glass items I can use for a gift (e.g. cookie plate or candy dish), frames, lace, jewelry for craft embellishments (but rarely find anything cheap enough) and I browse for an impulse buy. We have a "Buy Nothing" giveaway community here, so I watch for free items.

[@debbiegordon7622]

I think your gonna make a lamp post

[@kathyfowler1274]

Ooh!! I have those brass candle sticks from pottery barn that are about 30 yrs old. How much are they at the thrift store? Just curious. 😜🤗 I Love the post!!! I Love the lamp too!!!

[@leannsmarie]

The art with the 'Monet vibe' as you call it, is actually a print of a Monet painting. I collect Monet prints that I have picked up at thrift stores so I recognized it immediately. I have about seven different ones in gilt frames so far. They fit right in my house along with some of my French grandmother's oil paintings. She was an artist in her own right and even had gallery showings of her original artwork when she was still alive.

To remove Sharpie from wood, use rubbing alcohol, hand sanitizer, nail polish remover, hairspray, or a magic eraser. Other options are baking soda(mixed to a paste), toothpaste, or a dry-erase board cleaner. Apply the product with a small dab on a towel or cotton ball, make sure to test it in an inconspicuous area first.

[@juliebeebe34]

Or Goo Gone works AMAZINGLY! Two applications, leaving the product on for 90 seconds each time, prior to wiping off with a dry washcloth only. *Obviously, I do this often, lol

Oh Kelly, I'm so happy for your Ray this IS a miracle. When I heard you say the cancer is gone (almost) I cried. The City Of Hope is a great place to be. And he will beat this with everyone praying for your family. The power of prayer does work. I wish I could give you a big hug but sending you a virtual one. So happy for you all.

Natalee, your Pottery Barn dupes beat the Pottery Barn ones hands down. You are so creative and turn these flips into beautiful home decor. Thanks for all you share with us.

Wow, thank you!

[@kelleyhawk6595]

@@designedtothenines As far as the broken candle stick, soldiering def will work. The other option is UV resin, it cures instantly under the UV lamp and is very strong. 😊 hope this helps.

[@kelleyhawk6595]

@@designedtothenines take your time on the clock, search for clocks u like, antique or not, then makeover yours as u c fit.

[@MandieDePoe]

That was a super fun video, I LOVE the pillar candlesticks! The clock isn't an antique so if you want to paint it I wouldn't let anyone make you feel bad about it. 🥰

[@roxiewallace2900]

This was a fun video to watch. Loved the white floral arrangement. I'm at an age where a lot of the "trends" are what was popular in years past. (Brass items, mushrooms, gold frames, etc.) But, it's still fun to see these items get a bit of a modern touch. You're a very talented (powerful) woman with interesting ideas and good taste!

[@baronesselsavonfreytag-lor1134]

Antique dictionaries tend to have beautiful illustrations.

[@designedtothenines]

Yes!!!

[@deedee0909]

I could totally relate with that statement about feeling somewhat like a hoarder when you have several projects you’re working on! 😁😁 And you look wonderful! I hope that you’re continuing to feel better! Love your videos! Here I am on a Friday night hanging out at home watching Design to the Nines! Your channel is a feel good channel! ❤

[@designedtothenines]

Love that! Thanks for spending Friday night with me!

[@genasannicolas]

So glad you’re feeling better!

[@kimberlyobrien132]

Your style and taste totally compliment and complement your amazing talent! Oh, and flip the clock! Do something spectacular with it and have fun! Thanks for all you do and always being YOU!

[@ellenhartley4998]

I love the pillar candle sticks! Definitely would buy these! The little brass one can be fixed with JB Weld. It's great for stuff like that.

[@jenniferowens74]

That is what I was going to say! Phenomenal stuff for metal repair!

[@elaineculbert8594]

Oh gosh! You remind me of …. ME … when I was much younger! I loved re-purposing purchases from thrift shops, etc. and always kept an eye open for items I could improve or change to my liking. Those were fun years! As the decades roll by, you gradually find you have enough “stuff” (whether it be furniture or decor items) and simply can’t buy another thing for the house. However, before you know it, grandkids marry and move into their own homes and, if you’re lucky, you can help them with their own interiors and the fun begins all over again! 🇨🇦

[@lauriehuber3040]

They all turned out great! I can’t wait to see what you do with the clock. 😉

[@barbie3166]

Totally redo the clock, NataLee! Just go for it! You don’t ever need to feel bad for painting something. It’s YOURS to do whatever you want to do with it. I’ve got one too and would LOVE to see what you would do to yours so I can do it to mine! 😁

[@dorrainehudson4335]

I think the pink brass pitcher is perfect, especially filled with pee-uh-knees (that’s how we say it in our parts). The candle sticks are gorgeous! The clock is not an antique so I’d go for it. It would be a great piece to practice IOD paint inlays on. Nice to see you looking like yourself.

[@designedtothenines]

Thank you so much for being kind about that. I get so many people who are angry with the way I say peonies. It’s just how I was raised lol.🥰 Thanks so much.

[@dorrainehudson4335]

@@designedtothenines I was hoping mine didn’t read unkind the way I phrased it. My mom said it the way you do but my dad’s people said it differently and that’s what I picked up. I don’t know why people need to be unkind. You just be you, which is awesome. You’re so kind to share your talents and knowledge and make videos for us. ❤️❤️❤️

Love this video!!! Your channel is one of my favorites!!! Peonies are my favorite flower no matter how it’s pronounced. You are nothing short of fabulous- don’t give the keyboard critics any head space

[@patriciareeps3389]

I would leave the clock alone. I have been taking my old brass items out of the attic and using them in my decor. I love the floral arraignment and the pretty gold frames. The candlesticks you made out of the large pillar turned out great

[@designedtothenines]

Love that! Thank you 😊

[@mrs.z1172]

Good afternoon, one thing I love about your thrift items is that you respect the original piece just a touch or two of a new color , I absolutely love your ideas, be blessed ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@MM-yl3eb]

NOOOOO no polish Love the brass patina ❤ Great great thrift haul and flips. Absolutely love those pillar candlesticks, gorgeous!

[@carolynratliff1380]

Use the candle stick inside a flower arrangement…it will stick into some foam…I did the same thing with a real silver candle stick…I cried all day!!!!!!

[@conniebyrd3232]

Hi Natalie, I loved the candle sticks. They are amazing. I love the peony flower arrangement also. I am amazed how you can look at things and envision the What it can be. I would go for the clock flip, Look forward to more thrift and flip with you.

[@m.cooper1372]

I love the white flower arrangement in brass along with the gold framed pictures. I had a clock similar to yours and it was going to be throw away so I put shelves in it and now it's so adorable. I also painted it. I figured it was ok since it was going to the landfill anyway. you are very talented and creative!

[@laura9855]

What you did with the picture frame is genius ! No one looks at the back of pictures 😊 . I love my gold spray paint . I’m going to pick up a can of the krylon 24 K Gold . Love it .

[@heavenlymorsels]

This was a great episode - so glad your back and hope your feeling better! You look stunning so look good feel better? All these projects are beautiful and I like the brass collection on your entry way table. As far as the grandfather clock I would keep it wood as woods (like wood cabinets) are back in style - plus gives you the option to change it later if you want to! ❤

[@kimhavey7850]

Honestly, I love the scale of the candlesticks where they are. They are beautiful and make a nice statement there.

[@marybetholewinski9697]

I love all the brass and I always have and you did fantastic with decorating the bowl. I'm glad I had you to watch as I'm currently in the hospital unexpectedly. You brought a smile to my face I'm so glad you're feeling better. As for the I think it's gorgeous and I would love to hang it just as it is in my home.

I love the brass rings! You are incredibly talented and I your smile always makes me happy 😊

[@designedtothenines]

You're the best!😁💕

[@CrazyCrafter-le9ge]

Screw extractor for the broken screw. Take both pieces to the hardware store to match for a new screw. Loved all the flips. The only thing I would do on the clock is to possibly add a lacy design on the glass front, with etching cream. You would still be able to see the pendulum, but all the "dead space" would be filled and decorative. Great video. So happy you are feeling better.

[@maryarenas498]

Love love the frame going back to gold and the print with White duct tape.....OOOO DOGGIES YES BEAUTIFUL

Love these thrift hacks they all turned out beautiful. But as I always say anything you touch turns into a master piece. That's one reason why I don't go thrifting I am totally out of room in my house for anything else. Have a blessed weekend.

[@heatherstonebridge]

I can't stop buying those little handmade pottery bowls. They're all over our house...soap dishes, laundry change, keys. I may be hoarding them. 😁

I'd love to see the clock painted black and then put beautiful IOD transfers on it. Love all of your projects and enjoy your upbeat personality.

[@belindajoyparker8874]

If the screw end is broken off into the candlestick, you can get a reverse-turn bolt remover to get it out, or you could just solder it all back together :) Great finds! Love the idea that you can easily turn lamps into high-end looking decor. They always look so hideous to me when they're old, but now, I might have to look at some new ones for inspiration :)

[@FourHuskyHomestead]

I might even get a small drill bit and drill out the screw on each end. And find a nail or small round wood piece . Then use glue , place in each end. Hopefully it dries and hold the candle stick together.

[@pamelacaviness7671]

Love the brass ring over wood beads.

[@grammysagmoe9659]

I knew the minute I saw that pillar, it would be going home with you! Quite the find… loved how the candlesticks turned out.

[@jennbidwelledwardson2885]

Thank you for another great video. I like your flips-not too fussy, not done just because you can, no arbitrary, self-imposed limits. Nice, useful flips that inspire. If you find your stash of flips outgrowing your space, you could sell them either locally or online. Sure, shipping g could be a pain, but you can charge for your local UPS store to pack and ship awkwardly sized/shaped items.

[@robinsabo6932]

Your lamp makeover looks better than the Pottery Barn lamp! And maybe for the broken brass candle stick you could make a little wooden base to attach and paint it a fun color! And your tall wooden candle sticks might even work placed directly on the floor with a plant or potted flowers to create a little vignette near the fireplace. All your makeovers are beautiful!

[@shygirl-vg9re]

I like the brass rings that replaced the wood rings. My favorite could be the lamp. Love it all .

[@lillianten2152]

Love your thrift store finds especially your pitcher

[@judys5767]

As always, I enjoyed the remakes and learning about your thrift finds. The brass pitchers were probably donated by ladies my age who were sick of cleaning the brass we decorated with in the 80's and 90's! A paste of Bar Keeper's Friend and hot water works well to clean brass. The bowl of flowers and new brass ring creates a beautiful formal vignette.

[@FrannyFine1993]

[@sharonhughes588]

I love your floral arrangements!!! I especially love the peonies in the frame next to the arrangement!

[@jodilea144]

These are all so pretty! I always enjoy seeing your ideas. I tried the ketchup thing on some brass hardware for a cedar chest I’m redoing and had the same issue because it was only brass plated. 😕 As for your broken candlestick, get you some LocTite Steel Stick. It’s a two part epoxy that you just break off and knead the black and gray halves together. I’ve used it with wonderful success many times. It is meant for metals and heavy duty repairs. You might want to wear a pair of disposable gloves when using it, but I find it much easier to use and shape without them - obviously just wash well afterwards. It’s really inexpensive (get it at Lowe’s or Home Depot), and it’s great to have on hand for all kinds of repairs. 🙂 Edit: I’d love to see what you can do with the clock! It’s yours now - do what you want and don’t worry about what others might prefer. 🙂

[@fisherlady408]

You know I love your ideas soooo much! Spray the clock with gold and then some rub and buff to tone it down. Can't wait to see what you do next! 🤩 Can you take the screw parts out and replace?

[@designedtothenines]

I wonder! 💕

There are a number of "metal" glues that work really well. J-B Weld 8276 KwikWeld Quick Setting Steel Reinforced Epoxy - Dark Grey 2 oz is a good one. You may be able to salvage that beautiful candlestick. I love your sense of humor in all of your videos!

[@conniegray3272]

A metal screw is all you need to fix your candle stick holder. Barkeeper's friend is my favorite brass/metal cleaner. You can make the paste with this as thick thin or gritty as needed. Rinse well and polish dry. Grandfather mini, I think if you could make the silver parts gold, it would be an awesome complement to your decor style! Great episode!

[@Bratzilla1966]

[@kathleenoconnor8155]

Try taking your brass candle stick to a hardware store and find a thin screw you can mend it with. I live in a small town with a True Value, and I have gone in with different items and had them find me the screw that fits. I usually just have to buy the one screw or just the few that I need! I just love your videos! Such fabulous ideas!
