CRATE AND BARREL VS THRIFT STORE | DIY HIGH END DECOR DUPES ON A BUDGET

[@DKL6076]

The black bowl is an incense burner. Everything looks fantastic!!!

[@debbymodd4579]

My guess was right! Thank you for clarifying 😊

[@cbjones2212]

Yep. It's a 'spiral rope incense burner' or something along those lines. I think they're Tibetan in origin.

[@pg6348]

😊Recognized it right away !!as an incense burner.

[@diannerempel8262]

I love your idea of the "cement" looking orb for the garden. I have one that I spray painted with a mirrored finish. What I did for my cement orbs, was find 3 different sizes of round glass light fixtures at the thrift store. You put them in a pail of sand to stabilize them, add cement mix, and allow it to cure. Then put them in a plastic bag and break the glass. Beautiful orbs for the garden, at a very low cost. I would suggest oiling the inside of the light fixtures, as in a few places, the glass was hard to remove.

I wish I had a person like Pat in my life.

[@nicolemaria913]

Me too! Where can I find a Pat? 😂

[@gigiinspired780]

🤣

[@marissavergara768]

The canisters look amazing! Also, I love that you're willing to take something broken and put in the effort to fix it! You make it look brand new.

[@annmyers2883]

If anything happens to the cooler it would be nice to store things inside like blankets, pillows, or outside for gardening tools & small garden decor pieces for winter. Great find. I'm going to steal your idea of the bowling ball. Thanks for the ideas 😊

[@tina6314]

We used to have a bowl like that when I was a child. It was called a "Zen" bowl. We had sand in it ( but not enough to cover the spiral) and two or three marbles placed on the sand. The bowl was always kept on our coffee table. 😊 Love your dupes. ❤

[@TarraLHudson7]

I don’t know what its intended purpose is but that black bowl is really cool!

[@katherineleboeuf722]

I look forward to every Sunday because of your ideas. Thank you for sharing with all of us. Have a lovely day

[@lindabunce5133]

Have no idea if it would work, but maybe an exercise ball (its thickness is needed). Make a small opening and spray with foam that expands to fill and firm the shape. Then do your cement treatment. Love the cutting board at the end.

[@mattiewilliams1138]

I was coming to make this comment

[@lauriepayseur5897]

Ohhh such a great idea

[@linp1268]

Everything was fantastic as always. The ruffled black bowl was so interesting and original. The cansiters, bowling ball, bread board, shower curtain, table cloth, napkins...etc...were just amazing. Well done Fia!!😊

[@carolepeck3829]

Just noticed the hack you use to make a pour spout for a paint can. Brilliant!❤

[@ginarhodes2855]

Wow, everything turned out great! I always see bowling balls at the thrift store. Now I will be picking some up to make garden art. I think a group of three would look amazing and just putting one on a riser. Thanks for all the inspiration!!!

[@suecox2308]

As always, you've given us an excellent cache of ideas (and, not for nothing, it's a pleasure to see someone using decent fabric scissors instead of those blunt crafting scissors!) the canisters look great and I like the bowling ball project--it's chic and simple and they can be very expensive.

[@charleighblanchard7096]

Fia, you mesmerize me with all of your ideas and how you transform pieces, your home looks amazing!

[@darlaburnett8666]

Your ice chest was my favorite. That was a really good find!

[@leannsfearcocktail9420]

Everything looks amazing!!! I want to thank you for the endless inspiration you supply to all your subscribers. You’re one of my top three interior designers on KZbin and have saved me thousands $$$.

[@sherim8155]

Love it all - especially the cement bowling ball

[@jenniferbrinton6726]

Hi Fia for a larger sphere a globe may work I used a thrifted earth globe as a large christmas ornament last year but would suggest to do a coating of spackle or maybe brush on cement something that would add weight and fare better in weather ,as I only used several coats of spray paint that was peeling by end of holiday . I think was a only made of type of thick paper mache cardboard type material. You can also find a tutorial on using a Ballon or ball using on quick crete As always I enjoyed and was Inspired by your tuturial today. Thank you

[@CandaceDay-f5g]

I did a Google lens search on your odd black pottery bowl. It appears to be an art piece - there are tons on line - inspired by water wheels from what I can gather. It's a beautiful footed art pottery bowl. Good eye!

[@debbieburns8140]

Loved it all The black bowl maybe a coiled incense burner? Just a thought. ❤

[@GregoryCooper-eh6yk]

Yeah....that makes sense. It also looked like one of those dog bowls, but being so decorative, it's anyone's guess.

[@MLCruz13]

I love the bowling ball idea. I would never have thought of that.

[@GinaWiley-pn9ro]

Immediately noticed and appreciated your commentary! It was all so easily understood - reasons WHY, etc. - and to the point. Thanks so much! So happy to have found your channel!

[@kaitd4921]

I think that black bowl is an incense burner too! It also reminds me of the citronella burners that pottery barn is doing right now!!

[@rzpotts4]

The bowling ball is awesome. Love all your ideas 💡 😊.

[@LadyEileen]

Hi Fia. I find your videos extraordinary inspiring and I admire your skills, craftiness and your imaginatory abilities. I have nicked a few of your ideas over time. At the moment I'm in the process of remodeling my patio and I'm convinced that a few spheres will spruce it up. Using bowling balls is a fantastic idea! Thank you 🙏

[@skaus1793]

Loved all your finds! I think my favourite was the unique black bowl or the canister redo. Always look forward to your videos! Great job!!!

[@peggyekena9966]

Love the bowling ball idea. I have wanted a couple of spheres to put on my hearth and that would be a great solution.

[@brendasparks6234]

I love the bread board. That was so pretty. You did amazing with all of them. Thanks for sharing.

[@judysheldon7461]

My sister and i enjoy watching your videos. I leave in illinois, and she lives around Nashville, Tennessee.

[@tracyp69]

The black bowl is a clay rope incense burner. They sell them at World Market and similar shops.

[@rosieroberts6738]

You really nailed it on so many pieces, but my FAVORITE piece of all, was the Dark Bread Board!!! Thank you for sharing your creativity!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@vintagelady1]

Black bowl is crazy cool, I hate incense (not good w/ COPD & allergies) but I'd grab it in a second & put it out someplace low so that awesome spiral shows. My fave is the bowling ball sphere, definitely gonna do that one in my new patio garden. Thanks, fun way to spend my Sunday afternoon.

[@sincerelyme-777]

lol, I thought that swirled pottery bowl would make a great slow eat kibble bowl for a pup. Everything you put your hand to is marvelous

[@lmbwana1]

The incense burner and canisters are awesome

[@k-leeatwell-stoltz6464]

My son is so impressed. Everything as usual looks amazing

[@mirandacamp4222]

I loved all today’s project’s but really wish I could be lucky enough to find a cooler similar to yours!

[@wavyliketheocean3486]

Happy Sunday beautiful lady ❤ I love this store back when it was in the city and the prices were awesome 😊 the bowling ball 🎳 looks amazing trying to think what’s bigger than that 😊 the unique black piece is my favorite so different. Everything looks stunning and beautiful you just have a talent and so much amazing skills and creativity. 💙🌈🦋💗🧡

[@lovingyourlifetoday]

The spiral is a dog feed bowl as it keeps them from inhaling their food

[@jillpeterson6298]

Thank you Gia! Take care of yourself ❤❤❤

[@bigmama6131]

Loved them all but, my favorite was the Bowling ball. Now I have to keep my eye open for those at the thrift stores too 🙃 along with everything else 😅

[@jenniferfitzgerald1796]

Love the pantry shelves. I might have left the wood trim natural.

[@rbrownaz]

Missed your inspiration last week. Loved everything!!!!!

[@carolineedwards6846]

I loved all ur ideas and creations, but my favorite was the canister set and that black ashtray that u sat on the top of that black & white book.

[@TracyWertz]

The bowling ball is genius!!

[@Androgynary]

I made a custom curtain for my stall shower too and it looks so much more high end!

[@sandybartlett7828]

Great job on all! I loved the garden sphere idea. I’m going to try it in my garden. 😊

[@jillpeterson6298]

Something tall and maybe narrow to accompany the bowling ball ❤❤❤

[@sunflowers6172]

Loved the canister set.

[@shelly1224]

Loved all of these ideas. Really loved the bowling ball turned orb.

[@rebeccazuckman9059]

The black dish reminds me of treats for animals food dish ect. The inside really reminds me of that

[@mpetersonification]

Yes, I know what you mean. I use those for my pets. It slows their eating down.

[@leslieschmitt7749]

I love this video and am feeling so inspired … I love the canister set!! 😊🩷

[@glennamanos7384]

I always love watching you. I watched some older videos and saw the Restoration Hardware books that you did with the fabric. I bought 2 large cutain panels to use that were linen and cotton. So i have tons of that fabric. I have also planned to make a table cloth also. 😃 i am now on a hunt for a couple bowling balls thanks to you lol.

[@sandybuchanan3479]

I love the black bowl. Gorgeous!

[@trendywendyjo]

Loved all of the inspo this week; missed you last week. Surprisingly for me, the canisters were my favorite change this week. As for the black coiled bowl, I agree with the other comment, it’s gotta be an incense burner. Regardless it looks cool and I like it.

[@akosuaodei7016]

You are a genius, really love your videos. Really inspires me to do stuffon my own on a budget. ❤

[@katrinawilkins-rf9pv]

Love your channel!

[@Milwaukee-Talkie]

I wonder if different sized styrofoam orbs would work since the cement would add weight? The stake would be easy to add too. I refinish furniture but would never think of the upcycles you’ve come up with-so creative! I’m sure our husbands could swap stories about some of the freebies and thrifted items we’ve brought home! 😂

[@betterlivingonabudget]

I love the $5 rattan cooler! And the pantry upgrade is so nice.

[@carriekowal5123]

Queen FIA 😊 I need a Pat 😂 2 things iam no good with is sewing & gardening . Love the canisters, bowl & breadboard ❤

[@maggiepadilla6915]

That black bowl would be a great base for a cloche.

[@snorlund1]

The pillows are gorgeous! Great job on the cooler! 😊

[@brenmanock]

Love your inspo. Great finds. My goodwill bins charge almost $3 per pound so it can be cheaper at the reg store. 😮

[@Txbrat]

Fabulous style! Love the bread board!!

[@gigiinspired780]

Love them all you projects are so high end looking 😊👏🏽👍🏽

[@JeriBond-r6v]

The black bowl is used for incense/mosquito repellent. A powder is placed in the swirl and lit.

[@msmartha3664]

Beautiful... and great job Pat!

[@johnrossi2506]

Love what you do. What do you use to clean everything?

[@wildflower0619]

Pat for the win! Everything looks great.

[@mildredi5408]

I LOVE YOUR IDEAS. THANK YOU

[@adriv3143]

Todo muy hermoso ❤

[@patriciaparson608]

After a hard day at work, I ALWAYS look forward to your inspiration!!! Your DIY'S always look very high end. Thank You for sharing your ideals and your time>

[@carliem9494]

Not entirely sure “it looks like they came out of a factory” is that much of a compliment😆 - lots of shoddy, badly finished stuff comes out of factories. “It looks artisan made” much more of a compliment, I reckon

[@debgersh5555]

Beyond fabulous, Fia! ♥️

[@nicoleshelley5186]

That bread board!!!!

[@alyciabermea1422]

@FiaGarciaDIY I just discovered your channel and I'm addicted lol! I was wondering if you have any ideas for a large 40x34 inch picture frame. I still have a lot of your videos to watch so maybe I'll get some inspiration. Either way, thank you!!

[@gloriaprimeau7318]

Loved all

[@bigmama6131]

Stone shere buddy...look for a horse ball. They are heavy duty plastic balls or a globe.

[@Rona-wn6wv]

I think your black pottery dish is for burning those large mosquito coils? Really enjoy your videos. X

[@lauriepayseur5897]

Or I hear coffee grounds work well in them to, to ward of the nasty buggers

[@jenzer23]

Pantry makeover!!!🤩

[@susiedial1754]

[@gracier.369]

What is Google Lens? And how does it work?

[@damomajanet]

Rule of 3. You need a square and triangle to go with the bowling ball

[@סימוןשלומי]

Yey! Been waiting!❤❤❤

Just buy the pillow cover next time
