Great job using black to compliment all of your pieces!!! Personally I think the round Fleur de lis tray would look better on the bottom because the clock is also round. Maybe I’d switch it with the painting. Just personal preference😁👍

[@barbaralanier7654]

Love the black gave a more expensive look. ❤

[@annbolick499]

I would just move to the side instead of in the middle,I agree to keep it on the top shelf.

[@annieg9636]

Yes, I would love to see your booth. I enjoy the pictures you post on Facebook! I love those tables and clock!

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you! I'll be sure to show more

[@mariecornejo6621]

Yes pls, put more videos of your booth! ❤

[@heatherburrill]

The black really brings out the painting - the artist would be so pleased

[@DesertDIY]

I hope so! Thank you!

[@valorwoman8747]

My dear I'm in shock !!! Put the picture on the easel on the left to cover the outlet and cords. You are very talented is why I was surprised.

[@MaryWalsh-ux6oj]

I was surprised that you put the candle on the underneath side of the table as well. There's no way you could like that candle without it burning the table! Also, I'm not crazy about the round fleur-de-lis directly under the round clock. I think a different shape like a square would do better why don't you just put the picture on top of the table?

You find the best items n always knock them out of the park with the way you bring them back to life with a whole new vibe. Everything looks high end. Love it. Have an amazing week.

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much! I hope you have an amazing week too

[@katfreedom9794]

I just love the black table. The stencil fits so well with the shape of the table. I think black anchors everything. Love it!! ❤

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you! I agree about it being an anchor

[@CountieLt25]

I love seeing the booth! Today was so much fun!

[@DesertDIY]

I'm so glad you liked it!

[@mitzip2748]

Love the decorated entryway table, it all turned out amazing but when you started painting the beautiful frame with the bluebonnets I was a bit worried lol but wow, it turned out beautiful! And the table you painted black & finished with the stencil looks amazing! Thanks for the inspiration!!

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you! I'm so glad you ended up liking it

[@virginiachampion9944]

I love how you take us through the process of thrifting all the way through to styling the finished product! From start to finish, it really awakens more of my creative side. I just love it! I would love to see your booth more as well. Maybe do a decorate with me type of video. If it's not too much trouble, maybe do something like from start to finish on your items and a style with me with the finished items. I don't know if that would be too complicated to do or not but it would be awesome to watch!!!! Thank you for all you do and all of your creative advice. Your tips/tricks/hacks/etc are really helpful and I appreciate you for sharing with us.

[@fernlintner65]

I would love to see the booth and my goodness that’s not enough money to charge for that piece! Love it!

I love watching you paint furniture. Small tables are my jamb!

[@KC-fk9ei]

Yes booth pics are fun to get ideas as well! I loved the vignette. The pieces work together even though I would have arranged differently, that’s just personal preference. My favorite was the painting…what a difference!

[@shelbyhambright9543]

The little black table is so pretty. The stencil gives it so much character. I love small tables. They are so useful.and a pretty place to highlight a pretty object.

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you! I agree

[@maryoconnor2228]

Would love to see more of your booth! Love everything you do - you certainly know how to bring everything, including thrift store finds, into any home!

[@melaniebelter1541]

The lamp shades are so perfect for those black lamps! ❤ The gold and copper Rub 'n Buff made all the difference for the picture frame and the fleur-de-lis medallion...perfection!! You pulled the whole vignette together beautifully. I absolutely love your furniture flips and would love to see more of that...the side table turned out soooo gorgeous! What a great video, ❤️!!

[@karenfreedman9180]

I love watching you take trash to treasure! Most are not my style, but your creativity is addicting! I watch your whole videos every time!❤️

[@janhaley1212]

I really like the original painting of the blue bonnets the best! Updating the frame made the picture so much better. Thanks

[@MicheleLRid]

I love the thrifting and flipping videos and would also love to see more of your booth too!

[@DesertDIY]

Yay! Thank you! Will do

[@firefrost9718]

@ Desert DIY- Thank you for the live today I had alot of fun and learned some new things too. Love your channel! For anyone that is interested in a homemade cleaning solution that is multi-purpose (windows, walls, bathrooms, counters and yes wood to if you plan to paint it) For an 8oz bottle: 1 part distilled white vinegar to 3 parts water and add a dime size measure of dawn dish soap then shake after putting pump nozzle on. If you would like a little scent to it ( for bathroom cleaning etc.) you can add 5 drops of any of these essential oils : lavender, orange, peppermint, lemongrass & Eucalyptus. These are also antibacterial (lemongrass, peppermint, tea tree & eucalyptus are also antifungal)

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much for chatting and sharing your recipe

[@firefrost9718]

@@DesertDIY Thanks for doing the livestream today, I enjoyed every minute of it lol.. Everything looked so nice but just loved that black side table, beautiful work!👍

[@debgersh5555]

You did real good here ☺️ I see a mirror above the table but I understand if you prefer the clock 🥰 I folllow a British lady who wraps all her cords in jute twine, it looks amazing, so you don’t have to worry about hiding them. Looking forward to a few choice items from your garage 😉

[@lisacrafton7485]

Love the black side table. Beautiful!

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you Lisa!

[@vickiehanan5686]

I'm so not a fan of black but your table scape with all black is gorgeous !! I also loved the black table with a white stencil !! You are so inspiring and talented ! It is so fun to watch you !! Yes more of your booth please !

[@lisavasquez4670]

Yes I would love to see your booth more often

[@DesertDIY]

I will be sure to show more

[@SharonNickson]

I’m glad people are still using stencils! Good work!

[@CynthiaVegas]

Fear stops me a lot. Watching diy videos helps

[@trixie9777]

That blue clock looked as if it’s a Dresden piece! My favorite! I loved all of the flips that you did. My favorite was the painting. You have such a good eye to see that the black would bring out the colors in the painting, while the gold highlights brought it all together.

[@pamelavizina1092]

Oh I just love the little table with the stencil. Super nice. The frame on the painting 🖼 you restored really did make the colours pop on the painting itself. Can’t wait to see more.

[@patriciareeps3389]

I love the table makeover and your hall decor. I never decorated with black either but I recently started using it on my front porch and throughout my yard. I have two black lanterns and a small glass top table with black legs. I restored a large black planter stand and pot. I’m planning on putting a large fern in it. I bought those magnetic black hinges for my garage door I’m very pleased with how everything looks. I like to see your booth also

[@beverlylones9552]

The table looks so gorgeous! Love all the black, very high end! The black table with the stencil is so stunning, amazing!❤️❤️

[@graytabbygehrke1352]

I really love the artwork in the frame you painted black. It really makes the colors pop. The added gold touches are so classy also .😊

[@kristylambert9690]

A good mixture of your flips and your booth would be great, so yes! 🙂👍

[@Velvethart]

Girl, seriously. You could be a stager for any high end home decorating store! You have an eye! This one blew me away. Also, I think you have a nice balance of showing your booth and showing your projects and hauls. I like seeing how you stage at your booth, but I LOVE watching your creativity!❤

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much!!

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

That painting looks so fresh with the black frame! I enjoyed this video! So far as seeing your booth-- I'd be open to seeing a clip once a week. If things are moving as quickly as they seem to be, I think we'd be able to see changes. Or even every other week if that's usually when you do a refresh. I love seeing your booth!

[@Leslie-wb8cb]

P.S. They sell this peel and stick tube for hiding wires behind open tables. It's pretty inexpensive, and I think it's on a roll? Because if it were a table I walked by all the time, the cords would drive me NUTS. 😀

[@DesertDIY]

I think that's a great idea. Thank you Leslie

[@valorwoman8747]

Those topiary pots were PERFECT the way they were with your vignette the way they were. It needed that color

[@elainethompson6427]

Love the black table. You do such amazing work. Absolutely love everything about your videos

[@dorindaarney3395]

You need to paint the lantern black with a copper edged patina on lid, to match your other pieces Make a muslin tube long if no sewing machine just use liquid adhesive enough to cover your cords to blend into your wall

[@charlaberteau4793]

Yes, I would like to see more of your booth. I always like to see how people style things.

[@consueloaguilar1032]

Love the remake of your new family room, love the table behind the couch. That's smart

[@terribushta6032]

I love everything. Your entryway is so pretty. Yes it is very high in looking. I like when you do some diys that are going in your booth and then you show them in your booth. That is fun.

[@gerridagostino6726]

I love all of the things that you did for your van yet in your foyer! Your friend Gerri and that’s a truth there’s not one I could pick over the other! Thank you so much for sharing

[@deborahdavey1743]

I loved the hallway table and how you decorated it. I would like to see your booth occasionally but I love the shops and flips. It is also nice to see how you choose the things to decorate a piece with but are happy to change things around if you think it will give a better look. I would never have thought of putting the shield under the clock but it really sets off the table there. Thank you for sharing part of yourself with us.

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@617883]

It looks elegant. This is why I decorate my home with black decor 😊

[@carolinedubose5136]

[@pattyseel1892]

yes, I love the way you show some shopping, and then the makeovers! I would also love to see occasional updates on your booth too. I keep hoping I run into you at the painted tree!

[@daisyjc8739]

I love that black color on the table and the stencil just makes it pop! Good Job!

[@shelbyhambright9543]

I'm so jealous of the original art. I'm trying to transition to original art and live plants a little at a time. This one you found is lovely and, I thought I would have left it gold until I saw the black frame around it. It is STUNNING for sure. A shoow stopper.

[@DesertDIY]

I'm so glad you liked it. What an admirable goal you have

[@MrsJax304]

I appreciate your outlook and perspective on life. I can feel the love and gratitude you have. Your videos are always honest and helpful. I feel the Lords love through you. ❤

[@maryanncolson8042]

The black side table and the picture were my absolute favorites in your vignette

[@shawbri1978]

I love the way you painted that table. It looks so nice. I was so scared for your kitchen floor- 😂 you are definitely neater with paint than I am. I’d love to see more of your booth. Also- your thrifted items look so good on your new table. My favorite is the fleur de lis in the middle of your lamps. 😊

[@karenhughston6474]

My favorite was the black table with the stencil and the bluebonnet picture with the updated frame. Good job!

[@lesliejackson8188]

*Cory, did you notice how there are now 2 Leslies commenting on your videos? 😉 Such fun!* *Your lamps are lovely, but 2 lamps on top of that SMALL entryway table is overkill and crowded - and I mean that in the kindest possible way, Cory. Use one lamp on the right of your table. Your beautiful original blue bonnets painting 🖼 is being lost on the lower shelf. 😔 I suggest moving your painting to the top center of your table, to show it off to its best advantage. 😊 It will also balance out the look of the round clock on your wall. I recommend adding a small tray on the left side of your table top to have a landing place for mail and keys, close to the front edge of the table, and behind it on the left side a faux or real trailing Pothos plant to give your table more life.* *To address hiding the cords, gather them together neatly and zip tie them together with black zip ties. Then, attach a couple of Command Strip Hooks horizontally on the underside of the table to attach them to. Now they will be unobtrusive.😊* *Personally, I like the fleur-de-lis piece with the "petal-like" pieces painted black, but I think you missed the mark painting over the detailed verdigris patterns near the outer edges.😔 The gold highlights are nice, but too subtle...the piece doesn't look lively anymore...it just looks flat. Perhaps making the fleur-de-lis itself gold with the Rub 'n Buff would help. You could also lightly dry brush a verdigris green color of paint over those details to liven it up again.* *I recommend on your lower table shelf you leave your tall lantern on the left side, put your fleur-de-lis piece in the center on the gold easel towards the back, display the black ⚫️ orb centered in front of the easel with fleur-de-lis, and place a stack of black bibles or books with gold embossed titles on the right side, with a gold candle snuffer laid across the top of the bibles/books. You can use your other lamp and the two topiaries elsewhere in your home. I think the topiaries would look great on your mantel, where you have much more room for symmetrical displays of decor. 🖤💚🖤😉 IMHO, your entryway table would look best with an asymmetrical design on both surfaces. Thank you, Cory, for welcoming our sincere, heartfelt feedback, acknowledging our genuine desire to offer kind and constructive advice. I don't think I have EVER BEFORE in the past offered you such a vast amount of suggestions contrary to what you have styled in your video. But, I find it so encouraging to know you welcome 🙏 our input, no matter how much we may disagree with you, because you truly know our advice is coming from a heart full of love ❤️ for you, Cory. You understand that we wouldn't bother to take the time to comment if we didn't truly care about you. XO😊🥰❤ BTW, I L🤍VE your round clock❣️‼️❣️ It LOOKS SO GOOD hanging on your entryway wall❣️💯 And, I also use Old English furniture polish...I have been using it for at least 50 years, and it is a WONDERFUL product that doesn't build up like some furniture polishes do, LOL. 😊* *It was great to see your booth, and I would enjoy seeing a 30 to 60 second pan of your booth each time you update it‼️* *Your little black table with the stencil on the top turned out LOVELY - but $40 is WAY TOO LITTLE TO CHARGE FOR IT‼️💯 Your time is worth SO MUCH MORE, Cory...at LEAST charge $50 or $60 for it and give yourself an instant raise❣️😍🥰 It will still sell quickly. 😁😉🤪*

[@Lore1968]

Beautiful. Too many things I like in this video. The painting, the little table. Always am impressed with your flip ups. ☺️

[@DesertDIY]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@antiquesrestoration3874]

Having run into the same cord situation, I found painting them the wall color (or something that will blend into the wallpaper in your case) as well as removing the warning tags really goes a long way in camouflaging them. I adore black painted furniture and have a few pieces in my home that I've transformed just like you did to the little black table. I also enjoy seeing your booth.

[@chrissnyder5584]

I would love to see your booth more! This was a great video, loved all the pieces, especially the blue bonnet picture and the black table. I absolutely loved your vignette. It really is perfect. But because I love that picture so much, I wonder if there is a way to rearrange things so that is on top of the table. So many possibilities with your classic pieces!

[@DesertDIY]

I'm sure there is a way! Thank you so much Chrissy

[@tristavalentour7575]

I really like the copper on the black! So sharp! Painting the gold frame was a perfect touch…something to consider when revamping all of these gold frames floating around. Pulling the dark accents out of the painted picture…who would have thought?!? I really love that you like topiaries…my family thinks they’re odd for some reason & they always tease me about the ones I bought at Dollar General. However, I will not be changing my mind about them because I love them! 😂😂😂 🦋

Just as I was wondering if you had a print or original art, you said Yes, this blue bonnet picture is original. You really did elevate the art by updating the frame. Primarily, I'm here to watch you transform your finds. I get inspired by watching your updates. That being said, I do also like a peek into your booth from time to time to see how you arrange everything.

[@tammierogers6710]

Beautiful. The only addition I would do is some type of bushy/ferny faux plant on the bottom between the picture and candle towards the back. Find a few faux blue bonnets to intermingle in it. It will make the blue in the painting pop. Great Job!

Love the square table - paint and stencil. It inspired me to paint an old table I have. Also, great job thrifting!!

[@cynthiagraven3343]

I didn’t think I would like this color theme because the black sounded too dark & harsh. I was wrong. Everything looks great! If I lived near you, I would buy that little table myself. The stencil on the black is gorgeous! Great video.
