I can’t decide if you’re a genius or a magician. Probably both!

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you so much!!

[@francissandova7164]

Definitely

[@horrisajones8933]

❤❤

[@NikkiaSings]

Love this comment! 💯

[@donnad.7986]

My favorite KZbinr, DIY Queen 👸🏻 Ms. Fia!!! No one & I mean NO ONE is as good as her!!! Hands down best hacks ever ❣️❣️❣️❣️ edit to say…. Hands down I meant ALWAYS best thrift flips! Everything she revamps looks amazing!

[@joycolli2023]

You are the BEST🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@novellawilson5138]

Who else wants to go thrifting with Fia 😊❤

[@Chris-um5ls]

I'm actually ready to drive hundreds of miles to the Hartfill thrift store!

[@Milwaukee-Talkie]

@@Chris-um5lsme too!

[@dharless78]

Right! They are literally the only true thrift store with thrift store prices! I'm in Cincinnati so I'm a 3-3.5 hr drive one way and I'm ready to book a hotel for 2 days just so I can go each day. Place is HUGE

[@lisabraybrook5694]

i love the juxtaposition of the mid century modern chair with the rustic pillow cover reused as a chair cushion.

[@vilmaaponte3380]

Ok you need to teach me how you find those amazing prices at your goodwill. My goodwill charges as much as Marshall’s. Even items from the 99cents store are $2. I absolutely love all your finds.

[@annw1395]

At mine, the lowest price they have anymore is $3.99! I told a worker that several items were from the dollar store for $1, and now the thrift store was charging FOUR times as much?? I walked out.

[@mommygarcia9137]

Wow ! Loving that big blue vase after you painted it beige & how you style it with branches from outside looks so elegant !

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thanks so much 😊

[@18gemini86]

I love them all but my favorites were definitely the chair and that candle turned vase sconce 😮‍💨

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Mine too!

[@valeriefoster8274]

I want to go to your thrift stores. You find the best stuff and work wonders

[@vmbvmb7471]

You have such a great taste for decor. I could never see the potential of certain things at the thrift store like you do. All of your finds/pieces were great.

[@imthedailymaker]

Last week was so good that I was looking forward to todays vlog all week! And you did not disappoint!! I loved it all today too. I have been with you for about a year and a half, and I so appreciate how much work you actually put in to keep your channel fresh and inspiring. You have really raised the DIY bar in the best way, Fia. ❤

[@TheRustyTrike]

The chair cushion strap hack 🤯 I buy pillow covers on Amazon and sew box corners in them to cover our Ikea chair pads but they’re always falling off. Now I can add straps!

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Yay!!

[@carolynpeters5706]

I wish I could find such great things at my thrift stores!

[@dharless78]

I have a hypothesis about her and her stores....see my comment just posted

[@user-tf5pt4oc8d]

Love the black chair and pillow cushion!!!! 😍

[@debbymodd4579]

The way that candle holder turned out....just brilliant 👏 👌

[@user-si8ou1dj2c]

Incredible thrift flips!!!!!!!!!!! Love them all. Thanks for sharing 💛

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thanks so much!!

[@vintagelady1]

Great thrifting/DIYing! I expect your bras trick didn't work b/c the brass was lacquered to prevent the kind of corrosion you were trying to get from the treatment. Your solution was perfect. Love all the projects but I'm most likely to try the marble tile plinth. Maybe!

[@monique1025]

Being honest I love your dupes video but your creations are better than the original. Fia you are amazing. It's not one Diy I don't like. You set a calm and warm experience with each video. When I want to relax and chill out your videos are always there. May God continue to bless you and your channel. 🙏🏼 ❤

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you so much!! What a beautiful comment! ❤️

[@karenkennedy766]

I loved the brass ring that you added a vase to. Great idea. The chair turned out so great Wonderful projects!

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thanks so much Karen!

[@suzannegriffin5121]

I love DIY's. Even if we can afford the store prices, it feels soooo much more of a joyful accomplishment to make something similar that belongs only to you that you can take pride in. I love some of the pieces I have bought....but I truly love the pieces I have made myself.

[@debrap947]

Enjoyed Erik Satie -Trois Gymnopédies (1888) in the background. One of my all-time favorite piano "tunes".

[@wavyliketheocean3486]

Happy Sunday DYI gorgeous lady 💗 that blue jug is beautiful your thrift store has amazing prices 😊 you are absolutely phenomenal my favorite is the jug and wreath and the stand that the vase is on everything is stunning wow 😮 have a wonderful week and lovely Sunday 💙💜🧡🦋🌈💗💚🤎

[@juliehansa1899]

That candle holder bud vase change up was brilliant!!!! You have definitely become my fav diy. The background music today kinda put me to sleep though. Lol.

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Lol noted!! Thanks for watching!!

[@amkii2]

I am massively impressed. Well done on everything!!

[@shelbyhambright9543]

I love all of your upcycles. The chair cushion and chair, the mirror and glass hurricane find, the wall sconce upcycle, the blue vase upcycle amd the magnolia wreath find We are surrounded by magnolia trees. So I want to buy some silica gel to preserve a bunch to make a large wreath and 3 small ones to hang in my windows at Christmas.

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you so much!!! That sounds like an awesome idea!!

[@sorayabejar7108]

Great ideas, Sofia. Loved the vase & the chair transformation was stunning.

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@judys5767]

Loved all of your projects today. It is unbelievable that the Goodwill prices are so low in your area.

[@bari2883]

Love the brass candle holder the best and that blue vessel that you neutralised was a great find too.

You are so lucky to find the magnolia leaked wreath at a thrift store. Gorgeous! The most creative project in today's video is the brass candle holder turned into a mini wall vase. Love it!

Such beautiful things today. I love that little vase moment.❤

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you! 😊

[@veronicacanadas5537]

I never have enough of you videos and ideas. Thank you for sharing them with all of us. You are truly an inspiration to me. Love from Maryland.

[@bridgetwoodward8031]

You're so talented! It all looks great! I might go check out Targets vintage prints. Finding something big enough to go above my couch is tough.

[@francissandova7164]

Outstanding

[@sandraholeman1708]

I loved the wreath ❣️❣️❣️ It is so beautiful 😊❤

[@angelaarey933]

Always enjoy your content

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

I appreciate that! Thank you!!

[@odettepeters7493]

Love the chair and mirror!

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Such an affordable vignette!!

[@abundantgrace540]

you are really good at home decor!

[@marlenomahony8649]

The “brass” wall candle holder wasn’t pure brass but brass plated copper. The salt vinegar essentially removed part of the plating revealling the copper beneath. You see this sometimes with the ketchup method for cleaning brass - if it’s plated then the piece gets pink/red-ish tone as the copper is revealed

[@mariareyesrosado425]

Great job ❤

[@lauraspleen6046]

You are truly amazing. Loved all of it...genius diy projects.. I anxiously await your videos ❤

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you so much 😀

[@shannoncook9915]

Colored marble & stone is coming in strong this year , & going forward

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

I know I am seeing it all over! Just not for me I guess lol

[@katereynolds1520]

Fantastic video! 👏 So inspiring as always. 😀

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thanks so much!

[@Mariah-vp4ej]

10/10 yes your wonderful

[@sonianeto4656]

Adorei tudo 😊 Beijinhos dos Açores (Portugal) ❤

[@valeriemckee-arnold5156]

Agreed

[@terribushta6032]

I wish our goodwill was as low as yours. I think Florida has the highest prices in all states. I love your channel. 😊

[@Chris-um5ls]

Your brass sconce likely had a protective coating on the brass.

[@janiebea100]

You are so damned talented! I can’t believe your visions!

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you!!

[@aussieanne6812]

I always find your videos inspiring and they make me want to head to my charity shop (as they call them here in Australia). The only problem is that our charity shop items are so much more expensive than yours and there isn’t always the great selection that you come across. Oh well, I’ll keep trying and hope to find some gems I can restore.

[@somonewhite6732]

Great video ❤

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Thank you!!!

[@SBL1932]

Your last project really spoke to my heart

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

[@jmpond4217]

You are so lucky that your Goodwill store prices are so low. Mine are usual 2 to 3 times higher than what you are paying.

[@ruthrobertson6301]

You have such good resale stores. Our Goodwill would ask $ 10.00 for a vase simular. A while back on another show you should how to cover a marble ball with words on them, to a black marble look. You dipped it into a solution. Could you show that again or direct us to the show again.

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

Absolutely!! I’ll add it to the list!

[@theresaharris7393]

I need you more often 😅

[@user-ef9tz6wj2u]

What a unique idea to use a glass vase in the towel hanger! There is a product by Dixie Belle that makes a patina finish. You can choose a greenish patina or a bluish patina. Julie from Julie’s Designs and Signs used it a lot (and sells it). I think you would really enjoy creating with it. Check it out.
