I would never paint that plant stand black. It is so natural and beautiful it is.

[@annette224m]

Love the natural look of the plant stand. Great free find! Your plants , are beautiful. See you next time. TFS😊

[@kathyearp1358]

I love the wicker planter as is. What a lovely find.😊

[@deblawson9517]

Love the natural look of the planter! Great free find!

[@lexannedellos5090]

I love the wood stain on the plant stand. I wouldn't paint it. I also love your Anthropologie mirror in your living room. It would look great behind the plant.

[@dianefontaine8918]

Leave it plain.. it’s gorgeous. Black gets dirty fast on wicker and not easy to clean. Love all your plants. You have GREEN THUMBS ❤

[@sandrajoyner6474]

So happy to see your new video. I feel like you take such good care of your home that the Lord is blessing you with something pretty and useful..and..it"s free! ❤ Oh, I definitely would not paint the stand. It's perfect like it is!

[@thefarmerswifecanada]

The fiddle leaf tree is stunning! I love the look of all the greenery with all the wood furniture and baskets. It gives me inspiration to get more plants! ❤

[@frenchfarmhouseflair]

I prefer the plant stand natural. That was a great freebie find!

[@Mrs.Goodbar]

Love the raw wood! So earthy! ❤

[@ourhomeonlawrence]

Your fiddle leaf is gorgeous!! I love the idea of putting the mirror behind it. ❤ I vote to keep the plant sand as is!! What an amazing thing to find on the side of the road!

[@RunninUpThatHillh]

There is so much great stuff sitting out this time of year. I just ride around the county looking!😂

[@joannefildew9092]

Aw your fiddle leaf fig is beautiful! ❤ I prefer the plant stand natural. 😊

[@barbarashelton6709]

I would leave the planter the natural color, but of course you do what you like. Your home is very pretty and your plants look happy! How is your garden doing? Thank You for sharing we look forward to your videos! Have a great week God Bless you all!!

[@lyndapeterson9948]

It’s late autumn here but warm and sunny today. Leave the cane stand natural. I think it goes beautifully with your aesthetic. Have a lovely week. God bless. Lynda

[@marywatkins6798]

That's a great free find, the plant stand! Leave it natural. I would not paint it black.

[@wandarios]

Leave the planter as is. Its beautiful! BLESSINGS!!!

[@robinnieto2703]

Sarah, that basket planter is so beautiful! I love the natural color especially with the green of the plant.

[@dianakendrick6354]

Sarah, I love watching your decorating videos it gives me inspiration for my home. I would leave the plant stand natural it makes the space feel warm with the wood tones.

[@user-jo7ue2dc1i]

That planter is an awesome find! Don't paint it. It looks so beautiful as is!

[@SharonStoots]

Love the plant stand. I would not paint it. I love the natural wood.

[@rhiannancaraway]

You can definitely tie and brace your fig. I would definitely get him in a larger planter soon though. He looks happy but he'd be even happier in a bigger home ❤️

[@kathleenroberts7972]

P.s. leave the planter as is. It's amazing! What a find! Like how you styled it.

[@franceswitham8214]

I love the plant stand as it is.❤

[@lynndeleesharpton7644]

Metlox was a pottery factory in my hometown of Manhattan Beach. Their pieces are collector items now. They closed down back in the late 70's. The salt cellar is pretty unusual.

[@diannerempel8262]

Leave it the natural color, it is beautiful!

[@loripowell7654]

I use branches from trees with a fork & stick in the pot/dirt to prop up my heavy branches of my plants

[@DoubleAFleaMarket]

Black paint would immediately date that beautiful plant stand

[@lindaopperthauser2284]

Growing up we had a rubber tree plant I believe it was. My Mom had us wipe the leaves w milk. Shiny and dust free.

[@cindyhancock5261]

I love the raw look of that precious two tiered basket! That was a wonderful free find!!! Your fiddle leaf is so amazing! Blessings friend ~ Cindy 🧡

[@debbiefletcher4781]

Leave it natural. It looks so pretty and easier to keep clean instead of painting it.

[@evanflood7038]

Sarah that planter was a wonderful find and you have decorated it beautifully! I can be having a most difficult day, but if I get to sit down and watch your video, I wind down and relax. You are like a cool drink of water on a hot day!

[@jennbidwelledwardson2885]

I like the plant stand as is. Great find! I've been looking for a pair of upholstered chairs forever and last week, after dropping off some small things & clothes I popped into the store and there they were. I'm so thankful for Duo calls. I quickly called my husband and he liked them too. It's been years I'm looking for chairs. It's the long game, and I'm here for it. Now, I just need a coffee table or something to use as one...

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Still looking for chairs. I’ve kind of given up.😂❤️

[@TexasGrandmawhollythrift]

This is Grandma from Texas. I have been a subscriber of you channel almost from the beginning. I enjoy them so much. Tell your sister that I miss her sweet face. Sometimes life gets busy. She is a lovely young lady.

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Thank you for your kind words.❤️ I’ll tell Karrie what you said.❤️

[@TexasGrandmawhollythrift]

@@SarahsOctoberHome well I think you are pretty sweet yourself. It really blesses me to see you young ladies put so much value into homemaking. It really is most rewarding and you will be glad you have in the long run. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

[@asasvantesson3795]

I would leave it as is😍👍

[@comfortablespaces]

Hey Sarah! I believe it’s called a salt cellar…I think lol. That one is gorgeous! But yes crazy expensive. And I love that ceramic Bundt pan you grabbed for a second. You’re also reminding me that I need to clean my fiddle leaf so thanks! Yours looks amazing!!

[@tammyr6669]

I love the planter! I would leave it the natural color. Tfs❤

[@christinecochran6034]

Sarah I have a number of salt containers which are called SALT Box. I do enjoy your videos

[@soblessed6438]

The color of it is beautiful. Don’t paint it. Great freebie.

[@brendajones7018]

I. Loved the mirror ❤

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

❤️🥰

[@nancypeteja6560]

You have such a green thumb!!!🪴🪴🪴🍃🍃🌿

[@shereewinters1272]

an old pair of panthose stockings is good to use for the fiddle leaf.

[@terriratzell8913]

I really thought the very first set of chairs that were the olive green/ yellowish vintage chairs were the best chairs that you've had. I really enjoy your videos Sarah! Thank you.

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

You’re probably right.❤️

[@SuzanneBaruch]

Regarding the fiddle leaf figs: instead of tying up the stems to give them support (which you certainly can do), I would try a different tactic: pruning the tree of the stems that have lost most of their leaves. You can try propagating the ends of those stems if you want new plants (which are perfect for gifting!). But by pruning the trees, you encourage better and more compact growth. Fiddles love tropical environments with plenty of sunlight. If they get too cold (in the 50's or below), they'll drop their leaves so they can become dormant. If they don't get enough light, they get "leggy," just like other plants or trees. And yes, your philodendron will be fine in the pot it's in right now. They don't mind being somewhat root-bound (unlike many other plants). You should repot a philodendron about every two years. I have one that's in a 1930's jardiniere and I love it (although it's GIGANTIC).

[@YETRAHomeLife]

Hi beutiful chair , love the tree 😊 bless 🤗

[@selmalopez8591]

Love your free find. Leave as is. It is so unique, looks beautiful with the plant in it.

[@miknosilanooram]

Sarah, your decorating style is so beautiful. But i am missing the decorating you usef to have in your videos. I would like to see more time on your videos of how you decorate with your finds.

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Ok:)❤️

[@franfarrell4266]

Hi Sarah love your finds your plants are beautiful like everything in your cottage great video lots of love from Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤😘👍

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Fran, you’re so sweet!🌱🥰

[@TheRayjane]

Love the natural stain on the plant stand, I wouldn’t paint it black. I like the way you are changing things up in your living room. The fiddle leaf plant is beautiful and so is the basket it’s in. Blessings Sarah

[@janjentz1053]

Hope you decide to leave the planter the natural color. I love it.

[@lisafriend5535]

I like the plant stand as is.

[@crystalsimmons7550]

You are just fine using that to tie up the plant love how big and beautiful your fiddle leaf plant is

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

So happy to hear this. I’ve been watching it and wondering.👏🏻🌱

[@user-iz1oe5kt9e]

Love the plant stand , leave natural

[@carolinewhiteley5287]

I love your style ❤

[@linmurray436]

The salt holder is called a salt cellar.

[@genevaguerra5627]

Leave it plain ! What a great freebie!! It adds to your cottage !! 💚your content ! And favorite month is October .🍁

[@janicegardner5027]

I love the wicker stand exactly as you have it. Just beautiful!

[@mabelmercado1001]

I like the basket planter this way MAYBE for FALL U can spray paint it

[@mola.s]

I think the planter looks best as-is... don't paint it. 😊 Your videos are so relaxing, I always look forward to watching them!

[@pennystewart9469]

I love the wicker plat r you found on the road. In my area, people seldom put things out on the street or roads because trash collectors won’t pick it up. It is a shame because it would keep things out of the landfill which is where you have to take if you don’t donate it.

[@sandyheredia3027]

I have many plants also, for the spring I put them out on my porch, they make it look so pretty 😊

[@lisastegall944]

Hi sweet friend, Wishing you a happy Monday. I really love your new plant, and the double planter you found, it's really cute, looks great. Always enjoy ur videos. Luv and blessings to you and your family. Bob and Lisa ❤🙋🏻‍♀️🏡🐦🙏🥰🌷💕

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Lisa, thank you so much! Much love!❤️🌱😍

[@terrysmith5574]

Hey Sarah, I would not paint the wicker plant stand it goes great with your pine hutch!!! Hope you have a wonderful week 🙏 from your friend in Athens Georgia 🌱

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Thank you, Terry! You as well!❤️🌱

[@tammyleviner3070]

They're called salt cellars or salt boxes. I have a copper one with a wooden top, i paid $8 for.. but i really like the blue & white or ceramic ones and still looking for one! The fiddle leaf is beautiful!❤ I like the cushion color of those cheer, but not so much the gold metal arms & legs, a little like an office chair🤷‍♀️ But you won't know til you try it! Love the tiered planter.. and free is awesome! Please leave it raw!! Its too pretty to paint! Thanks for sharing,i always enjoy😊

[@dianathorellana6622]

You can tie the branch with anything to be honest. Just don’t move your FLF too much because it takes them time to adjust each time they are moved and it may cause leaves to drop. Same goes for rubber plant/ tree.

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Ok.🌱

[@barbarapeterson8030]

HAPPY MONDAY IN MAY Sarah, family, fur babies. Hey Smokey. STTB

[@brendajones7018]

I always love your videos Sarah ❤

Brenda, thank you so much!❤️

[@tammypierce3250]

I’ve been looking for one of those wicker plant stands and you found one for free! How awesome! I would leave it as is but you do you. 😊

[@cinder8290]

The free plant stand is really nice, I wouldn’t paint it.

[@ivaneteroark710]

That planter that you found is amazing! Xo

[@sarabrunsvold2461]

Your home is beautiful! I have always admired the gorgeous mirror. I hope it will go back in your living room. The free plant stand is really pretty too. I’ve often meant to ask about your sister, is things are alright and if she’s coming back. I hope so!

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

She’s good, just busy with life.❤️🥰

[@bobbipetty7411]

You can trim your fiddle leaf plant, won't hurt it.

[@JLee-pc2vc]

The bowls at minute 3:30 are a pattern I collect. I was eating a salad out of a larger size bowl in that pattern while watching this video, so that was pretty funny!

[@joannfilippi6551]

I found a salt cellar for 50cents. So be patient you will get a deal.

[@PamWarwick]

Your fiddle leaf plant is beautiful. There is a lot of information online on how to care for fiddle leaf plants. I do think it is okay to tie them up. I’d leave the planter natural. Enjoyed this video.

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Good to know about tying them up.🌱❤️

[@conniemorgan8402]

@@SarahsOctoberHomeyou can tie supports to most plants,but, make a figure eight with your string and use the open end of your string to tie the limb or branch that needs the support.That way you can make sure it’s loose enough to not impede the growth of your plant, or damage the branch.

[@lmonette2116]

Leave it!

[@user-ru3ti5mw9p]

It is called either a salt crock or salt celler

[@beckymoe9194]

Plz dont paint the plant stand at all baskets need to be the natural color it makes them look cheep when there painted and it looks beautiful in your home❤👍

[@TheCottageHouse]

No don’t paint the stand, it’s beautiful as is.

[@user-dl8lk3wz5q]

Don’t paint the plant stand. It’s already pretty in its natural state. When you get chairs just make sure they are comfy to sit in. You’ll find the right pair at some point.
