[@GrammyM]

We gotta get Chris home!!! Everybody join and comment!

[@ssoley2097]

I am subscribed to both channels. Are there any other subscribers besides me that are not flippers or DIY’ers who just enjoy seeing what they are doing to save things from landfills?

[@kathyf7862]

I like the process of life you show us. Some want a microwave style of life. But you show the joy of the process, exercising patience and using your creative talents. Thank you!💕

[@armelleaymonin8907]

Bravo for your husband's patience! Most men refuse to work with women, don't know how to, especially when they have to improvise , help and resolve the problem at hand. Lucky you, Yvonne to live with such a knowledgeable, modest and kind husband! You are both wonderful to watch. Thank you for your clear technical information, humor and superb talent.

[@vickidunkle3698]

I am amazed at how much you two do everday organizing and reorganizing rearranging furniture, cabinets, hunting for stuff, shopping and taking care of each other, yard family and now maybe 4 booths! No one can ever say you are lazy people!❤😂😅😊

[@RetiredCheryl2021]

Won’t your cat love the clock pendulums hanging down? Great kitty toy! LOL

[@joycemorgan6956]

Love the way you neither one are saying much. The way you work together is priceless.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thanks so much 😊

[@lolabrainard7403]

I think you and Chris have made amazing progress. I love love love what you have done so far.

[@teresadoherty1853]

I am totally enjoying your journey . You take as long as you need . It's so so interesting.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@bevgordonmann8042]

Good thing the clock is right twice a day ! Thanks for everything ❤🇨🇦

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Lol.. yes it is❤

[@genevievemurray7743]

The spectacles, the gold ones are probably real gold and the broken looking ones appear to be early bifocals. What a great score 🎉.

[@kuttfam0191]

That clock is amazing! I don’t know if it’s Steampunk or not, but it is so amazing. I love the little cabinet with the rooster/chicken on it. For some reason it reminds me of the nursery rhyme about the blackbirds baked in a pie. So, I thought if I was making it over for myself, I’d put a wooden blackbird on it.

[@tammywellsgarcia2377]

One video closer to getting Chris home 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@maggiepadilla6915]

Thatclock is so unique. Chris has so much patience and talent. You both are people everyone wants to be friends with❤.

[@johnmelissaziech6207]

A place for everything and everything in it's place. The shop looks good. Go Lions!

[@kathrynriggs2489]

Oh my goodness, Yvonne. You see the special in so many things!

[@debbiegreen2414]

I love love the clock.

[@nualarosth8448]

You have not been living there so long don’t stress yourselfs, it will all come together as you both use the space 😊

[@sylvialangworthy1435]

Love the clock! We are enjoying your journey of setting up your shop and getting your house decorated as you want. It just takes time. Love to you and Chris. Get better soon. 🤗

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@peggycarr7504]

I love the things you recreate. Since you have moved, you both have done a lot of work. Even a lot before. Don't be so hard on yourself. You guys are great. Thx for sharing all you do. God Bless You both!!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@missthready]

😮Couples therapy, wished that worked here! Guess that is why i like watching you both work on things.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

😁

[@johall7728]

Organizing in totes …I really want to see what you put together ….I have a booth and do flipping of small items …I struggle organizing all my little items… from the rusty bolts, door knobs, keys, faucet handles,door plates and then there is the tiny tart pans, kitchen utensils, old cookie cutters, salt shakers, tiny critters, bottle brush trees, bells ….I have it all but struggle finding my items when I am creating … My mantra is “I know I have it but don’t know where it is “ 🤪. HELP Yvonne !!! I need ORGANIZATION THERAPY!!

[@kimcollins9462]

I love the clock Yvonne, it is stunning. You have accomplished so much in a very short time, dont sell yourself short. I think you both are doing a fantastic job

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@lisatoler3400]

You crack me up! Mr serious and Mrs sunshine, love your sense of humor. My husband and I make the same team. Great team effort😊

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Love it❤

[@janashe8600]

Y'all have gotten so much done. Baby steps!!

[@kiwisteppa]

I heard you say bits and pieces and I got all excited😂😊😊 Thank you for sharing your life with us ☮️🌈😍

[@gailhannon5794]

I love the way y’all work together so well! Still praying that Chris can stay home and work!❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@rbirkheimer59]

Hope you two get to feeling better :) Chris, The wall looks so good! You are certainly blessed when it comes to the wood working. By the way I'm a Steelers fan BIG TIME! Love seeing all the to do's things ,on the table. Maybe a little pre-view for us. Your clock looks good ! Really is different :)) God Bless. Hugs, Rebekah

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thanks so much!

[@tonihasson9418]

I get so excited every time I see a new video from both channels, I absolutely adore you both...so talented, sweet, patient etc. I learn so much from you guys, thanks for always sharing what you do!!!! Have a great weekend.

[@yvonneharalson7672]

Deco push the face of the clock! I love it!

[@marilynlovett2327]

That clock is very unique, I would have bought it too! You really get some cool stuff. Y’all’s shop is amazing, and if you work in it there will always be a mess lol you two really work well together.❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you! Yes.. we are always working on something.

[@ssoley2097]

At least the clock is right twice a day!😊

[@jaynebrown693]

You two are getting there ! I agree, you need to work in the are and let it tell you where things should go. I use to hate changing DESK at work for that reason! LOL!!!! More wonderful items and I love the CLOCK !!! I like to see the “fancy” inside parts too! Of course my cats would have a grand times with the chains , etc 🥴

[@TammyTiman-gx8cp]

Silly goose, mice can't read! 😂 The free box of goodies that you were gifted is awesome! I finally came upon a wooden baby shoe form last week. I squealed out loud, but didn't look up to see if there was a witness. Always a pleasure watching you and Chris. ❤️

[@shellydehart8217]

I think your shop looks great. I like how Chris hangs his boxes. Everything looks organized to me. But I understand there’s more that needs to be done. I’m just happy for you both that you have this large space to work in. That clock is so unique. Who cares if it doesn’t work it’s seeing all the mechanisms the cool chains with the weights. You always manage to find some cool stuff. Like those child’s wooden shoe forms. It’s so much fun to what you get. Thanks for idea what to do with old glasses. I’ve got a bunch of em. ♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟

[@margaretdillinger5090]

Fun video. Wow your friend was very generous. The glasses are very cool. House and shop will each have their own flow but it takes time to learn or figure it out. I read an article from a designer that said that very thing, “ live in the place, see how your life goes each day, determine the flow and that will guide your placement of your items.” It’s going to come together beautifully.😊❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Agreed.. live it learn it❤

[@judithstonier9872]

I think you've both done an amazing job in both the house and workshop in what has been a very short time when you work as well I hope you give yourselves time to relax as well it will all come together in time 😊❤

[@huntalot3054]

I got one of the flower frog vase/jar at a garage sale. I thought it was the neatest thing, had never seen anything like it.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

They are neat..

[@robincivis9501]

You both have a healthy attitude. Rome wasn't built in a day!😉

[@crystalswaty7243]

Love his system of tooL storage

[@sharonwinningham808]

That's a great haul,the little chicken cubby is adorable! The energy you two have radiates to us all I believe! Your house is simply Beautiful! I love how everything is coming with together for you guys in your studio/ shop..it does indeed take time. Thank youins again for for sharing your ideas, inspiration,encouragement, and enthusiasm with us all! I get a huge smile on my face everything you get excited about a find...especially when it brings out a "" Ohhh my heart ya"ll!" .God Bless you both,prayers fie complete healing. ❤❤

[@sandrasanders9290]

I think it is amazing how far along you’ve come in the house and the shop. Good for you guys, be proud! I love the clock. I have a grandfather clock that had been my dad’s and I love it. He loved his clocks.

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@Mcdaffodilhill]

We have collected clocks for years, this clock never had sides, it appears you have metal gears, some of the early ones had wooden gears, the insides so beautiful that sometimes my husband removes the “bonnet” just to see the gears. The weights are all “wrong” but work due to weight. The bonnet face looks like some enterprising soul painted it. The ones we have all have flowers, but some have scenes.

[@robynbohbot3709]

Yvonne you always find the coolest stuff.... Chris is such a great partner to have!!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

I think so !

[@linmims3049]

Hey, y'all are doing great on the house, the shop, and doing make overs, take your time. This is your forever home so you have plenty of time to make it all into what y'all envision it to be. Well, I'm assuming it's the forever of y'alls dream, but none of know us what the future holds. Anyway... No pressure, no stress. I think all your subbies will agree, we are here to enjoy the journey with y'all. I think the basket your friend brought was possibly an old sewing basket. My Oma had one, bigger, but similar to it. I need those oval frames and a few pair of glasses, I'll be watching on ebay. That clock...yeah, speaks for itself. Hope you both feel well again soon!! xx

[@marycoffee7366]

Love the clock!!!!

[@lesliejackson8188]

*Yvonne, the material you were trying to think of that the off-white mushroom 🍄 wall plaque is made of is called Sirocco. 🙂 I am happy I could help you with that. 🤍 I have some vegetable motif Sirocco pieces from my Grandmother's kitchen decor. They are fun❣️😉*

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you.. yes they seem to always be very fun pieces.

[@shirleygallagher8022]

Is your cat playing with the clock weights? 😂 That’s all I could think about as you were hanging it!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

I don’t think he’s even noticed them.. 😻

[@GrammyM]

You have got a lot of things done so far...

[@maryfrancesbaker289]

The ironstone piece would be cute with a bunch of your old paint brushes in! Love it!!

[@judym4673]

Feel better soon guys, you work so hard- take the time to recover😊

[@martinadavis4802]

You and Chris make a great team ❤❤❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@sallygreiner5724]

The clock is really different and striking. Chris's cleat system is so cool and organized. Loved the haul. My mother used to use antique glasses in display like you did . She was an oil paint artist and would use them to set up still life paintings.

[@paulavanduynhoven8951]

Rome wasn’t built in a day lol. We are still on a 3 year rehabilitation journey with our home. A true fixer upper that sat empty for 5 years. Love the clock!!! And oh the cleat system is so clever ❤

[@joheldenbrand4985]

Love the clock and i love to watch anything you and chris put on video my fav.u tubers❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you

[@linnyross5958]

Put the clock dials at 5 o’clock … Because it’s always 5 o’clock somewhere:)))

[@tturner2042]

Your new shop is gonna be awesome. All that room will be great.

[@vickygray1369]

Love what you do,utterly glasses are great to use at Christmas time (Santa's glasses).

[@kellihull7600]

Loving this series of real life! The great side is that you can work in it, while thinking and cancel ideas as you go realizing the flow, it will be (more) fantastic!!!! I hope you both are feeling better by now! ❤ that clock is awesome!

[@kellihull7600]

LOL I guess had I finished the video before commenting I would’ve heard you say the same thing 😂

[@Kat-d2u2]

Make stars out of those old yard sticks!

[@patriciacushard702]

I loved I love unusual the only concert I might have because I would make me laugh as I think your kitty cats especially the baby is gonna start playing with it. You better make sure it doesn’t move because if the kitty cat would start playing with it it’s beautiful. Have a good

[@mythreesons8084]

Perfectly imperfect!

[@lynnepelletier8882]

Great video, I been where I am for almost 4 years and still not all unpacked or have things the way I want. Health issues have slowed me down but I just keep plugging along. Loved your faces as you were hanging the clock....lol

[@barbarashelton6709]

You guys have done a lot in a short time!!!

[@barbgalligan4885]

Yall have accomplished a lot !!

[@trotting-along-thrifting]

Love the clock

[@sharibaker7056]

I love Chris tool storage. My husband is ready to retire too. We are working on it.

[@motorsoulband]

Your clock is the internal guts of an early 1800s grandfather clock. I have one very similar to it. Face would’ve been visible through a glass window at the top of the grandfather case. The weights are probably not window weights but look authentic based on mine. It’s beautiful.

[@barbarafuhrman7395]

Just take your time seems in the silent relaxed moments good toughts come to you..stay strong❤❤❤❤❤ paint on

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Yes! Thank you!

[@roxiewallace2900]

The French cleat system is awesome. Really nice way to organize tools. I agree, it does take time to figure out the flow when organizing a work area. And, even afterwards I sometimes have to tweak it! Nice video!😊

[@rita1259-y5c]

Glad I'm not the only one who buys dead clocks for decor. I get it!😅

[@deedeepiller6723]

Yvonne, you and Chris are amazing, to accomplish all you have is awesome, and hard work. I love the goodies that you have recieved and bought. Do you think you will sale the wooden shoe molds? Again amazing progress and everything is looking so good.❤❤❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Thank you If you’re interested in them I can list them on eBay. Just let me know.

[@rita1259-y5c]

The French cleat system is also beautiful!

[@adel531]

I personally like the brush strokes because it’s more of the farmhouse look.

[@marycaygross4096]

Add a mouse to the ledge on the back. 😊

[@marypoole4724]

I just love watching you and Chris together. I’ve said this before however, I still believe you are so bless to have a husband like him but, he is blessed to have you. As far as getting your work shop organize wow I’m amazed how much you have accomplished so far. Don’t beat yourself up cuz you have come a long way. Do you ever sleep? lol catch you later hugs

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Aww.. thank you. We really do appreciate each other that’s for sure. Oh yes.. I love sleep. And appreciate a good nap😴❤️

[@kristiehutto962]

That clock is the coolest thing ever!! I love clocks too. However, my hubby is anti-clock noise. LOL

[@kaymccormick2279]

Yes Chris needs to come home.

[@dixieofalltrades]

You need to set the time for a special time in your lives, like the time you got married

[@donnamcl6134]

TFS Yvonne. The shop is coming along. You got some great things on your shopping trip. The clock is very unique. I too wonder how old it is.

[@donnadozier4294]

My mom had a coocoo clock. Her's had cast iron pine cones. Your clock's weights look like window weights. It's hard to tell without the frame but where would the coocoo go? But I do love the basics of it and that you can see inside. I loved your video. It's good to see Chris getting his French cleats set up. It's coming together.❤ Your thrift finds are so cool! You have great friends to give you such great antiques. Can't wait to see you make dinner more vignettes. Thanks for sharing! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Yes.. that clock doesn’t necessarily make sense.. it even had a wind key .. but not place for it to go. 🤗

[@donnadozier4294]

@@GingerChickRehabTheJourney but yet it did go together, perfectly imperfect! ❤️

[@jensta1000]

So cool. You should have those gold tone glasses 👓checked they could be real gold and worth a good bit. ❤

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Yes.. 2 were.. I told my friend to take them back. It was nice they she gave those items to us. But those have more value.

[@roxannbowker6052]

It always looks awesome

[@tammyboyle7362]

I was rooting for the clock to be used in your home when I first saw it. I'm the same way, waiting for the organization bug to hit😊. Good luck to you both both in all your endeavors 😊 And thank's for all great content!

[@user-mg2wx4uu1i]

I think my cats would swat at the weights on the clock when they walked by!😹They might be surprised by how much they actually weigh. Those bookcases are amazing! You certainly made a wise decision when you purchased them. Y’all are incredible!

[@dorothyybarra5860]

Really enjoy your videos!!!!!

[@wendywhitter2768]

Of course it works it tells you the correct time twice a day, I have a few clocks that work in exact same way, I lovd them ❤❤❤.

[@ellzeescammon2600]

Yvonne, ... I laugh every time you say your shop is still a "hot mess." I keep thinking "Ohhhhhh, honey. You have no idea what a hot mess IS." I live on a farm and there are 3 "shops" and I bet there's stuff in there that hasn't been seen for 35 years!!

[@GingerChickRehabTheJourney]

Oh.. your right.. everyone’s “ hot mess” is a little different 🤗

[@avafowler2669]

I love both your channels!

Yay! Thank you!

[@kaymccormick2279]

I’m going on over a year and no room is complete. Just now have my temporary studio set up cause I have to get back to work. Hung the first picture today. Gotta buy an outdoor storage shed so I’m jealous of your beautiful spaces. ♥️
