I turned one into a Cat entertainment center with some cut out holes to climb through, carpet strips for scratching a hammock and high perch. It's fun to see it still entertaining.

Hi Mary ~ These are wonderful ! No I couldn’t do that, but I love watching you do all of this. Love the Buffet with the little open space under the top and those legs….love them in the wood tone ! Then the Apothecary Cabinet, how sweet is that ! I do thank God daily for the amazing gifts and blessing He has given people. He gave you this gift of seeing items used in amazing ways ! Not everyone has that gift. We are to share those gifts with others and you do….whether it is someone purchasing your items or watching you create. I find such joy and peace watching you. You are a blessing for sure ! I pray you have a blessed week ! 🙏🙏

Beautiful work! Totally unrelated, but your wearing skirts/ dresses that fall below the knee reminded me so much of my upbringing in church and my mother (RIP). For some reason, seeing you do this kind of work while still dressing like a lady (as my Mom would say) is inspiring. I totally rebelled against having to wear long dresses and skirts all the time and left the church as soon as I turned 18 over such a rule. Now, 30 years later, this is what stands out while watching this video. I don't know why...peaceandblessings

Someone gave my mom a quilting hoop made out of cherry wood. It’s large. Thought I might want it to do something with. It’s Amish made from Ohio. I was thinking of just hanging it on the wall with a piece of my great grandmothers quilt. Do you have any ideas? I needed this video today. This is exactly what I want for my second bedroom being turned into a library room. Just love it Mary. You’re so creative. The bleed through or bubbling may be eliminated if you use a stain blocker primer, and a sanding, like Zinnsser Bin or another. I’ve had to do that. Have a blessed day Mary.

Some of these entertainment cabinets are beautiful hardwood and very well made. Love the green but I wonder if you could redo one and leave the wood? Maybe stain it a darker color like espresso?
