Over 75 Thrift Flips You Need To See Right Now

[@bettybryson9637]

Love the way the pale green lamp turned out! And the lovely blue print fabric on the stool!!! It takes a courage and boldness to dare to paint over a glossy ceramic, or a silver tray, or and old piece of furniture; a confidence I don’t posses. I guess one has to stop thinking or feeling that things are too precious, so one can make those drastic changes. We have goodwills here in California but have never seen goodwill bins. Our thrift stores here are getting more expensive!

[@marymckelvie7461]

I love watching your videos. I’m in a place now where I have no room to work on anything like I did when I was younger. I really enjoy your compilation, your style, the music, and your calm, soothing voice. I love seeing your family and dog, and also your husband working together with you. I’m so glad you’ve been able to make this into a viable business for your family. God bless you and keep you and your wonderful family. Keep up the good work.

[@deltorres2100]

Purchase you one of those cheap dollar store shower curtains to do all your work on. Is that your dining table you’re working on I even buy the dollar store tablecloth for parties to spray paint.

[@DesertDIY]

Great idea!

[@ladybugcarrie]

That’s a FANTASTIC TIP!!! Going to Dollar Tree this week . Thanks 🐞

[@barbarayoung8116]

I use puppy pads on my craft table a lot or the paper that hobby lobby wrap glass items in. I just ask for extra wrap.

Hi! I love the big furniture make-overs because that's what I like to do, but I watch every video you upload! Your positive attitude always inspires me! 😘

[@lilagoff4690]

You stage your things so beautifully. I really enjoyed this video.

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@diysbydar]

I think i have seen all those flips, but boy i had forgotten alot of them, so it was nice to see a compilation to jog the old brain box here. All really beautiful and smartly done!!!

[@caregiver1418]

You are so right....I've got soooooo many projects waiting to be completed and it's been on my table for months. I think after Christmas was over I was pooped out from doing so many Christmas crafts...I needed a break from it all. This video is exactly what I needed to see today. All so very, very beautiful. You've quite the knack for beautifying things.

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much! I think taking breaks is really important to get your creativity back

[@joaniekurpik5280]

I have enjoyed every minute of this video!!!! I can't believe how many I've seen of your original Simple ones are good for me 😄 but I am reaping a lot of the benefits of your talents !! Thank you so much

Thank you so much! That means so much to me! I'm sure your dust bunnies won't mind

[@noraleestone2859]

01:00:50 I love the tabletop refinish, but not the base. It seems a little too dark, and too brown. 🤔A lighter wash, or grayer taupe would suit me better. ☺Still, you've done your usual superb job, Cory. 👍👍 I'm sure it sold.

[@wendybray2482]

You are so creative & love watching your videos because I love creating things

[@DesertDIY]

[@mermaidunicornbeauty]

I like the candle making but I want to know how do you know what glass is safe to use in candle making? I have been wondering about this since I knew some candle companies had recalls due to glass breaking because of heat apparently or some other reason? Just thought it would be important to know if you can help with that one, especially since I have wanted to do this myself and have been unsure.

[@faithsmith7431]

Nice job Cory❤

[@tammyleviner3070]

I saw some amazing things just in the preview, which had me excited for the video😊 I've bought the rub & buff, the mod podge & the antiquing wax so i can do some DIY's. Do you use matte mod podge? I get lots of inspiration from your DIY's! And love the way you style them when you're done, makes me want every piece😄 You make everything just look so pretty! I love the teal shelf you painted white, great piece! Such A neat way to clean faux florals. I got a table very similar to the yellow & white one, my daughter did the white chalk paint & stressed it for me..i love it! I have another piece that is 2 shelves with pretty iron pieces that hold it together, she's going to paint it to match and we're going to sit in on the table to create a really nice open shelf piece! Super excited to have A unique one of a kind piece😊 Love the lamp shade! The piece you made with the silver tray I'm definitely creating, i was given a box full of different pieces of silver and there's several trays, i already have the stand so I'm excited for that! I really like the accordian rack on the board, i'd use the peg side😉 And the accordian rack with the blue & white is gorgeous❤ The foot stool is so pretty!! And of course I love the 2 pieces you cut & reframed, and love the vignette you made with them! What paint did you use to paint the lantern that you put little white flowers in? Ohhh I really love the little table, the birdcage & those frames & art in that vignette❤ I'd so love to add that little candle lamp to my collection, the blue Victorian one too!!! I want to make a tray like the last one you made😊 The drawers are super cute. Of course I love the old photos, they'd be great in my collection. I'm still collecting for a gallery wall, its going to have to be a big wall!😄 I have hung alot but still have so many stored back! The last 2 colorful ones you framed are stunning! The darker ones are pretty too. The 2 blue ornate pieces, you really made them so beautiful!! What is the gold paint and was that wax or a sesler you used on them? I have several pieces like that and would like to try that on one! That vignette with the blue lamp & the blue pieces is gorgeous❤ I love the blue birds too..I just need to come to your house and load up😄 I honestly love everything and would love to have every piece in my home! Really enjoyed, as you may can tell by this book i wrote😁
