4 children, a business and you tube videos 2 times a week, remodeling/moving rooms AND you still have the energy +desire to do somersaults, belly flops and cannonballs on the bed! Having so much fun! Thank you for sharing. Good video.

[@DesertDIY]

So true! Haha! Thank you!

[@queencityminis]

I love the bedroom makeover. I appreciate that you allowed your children to choose their own bedding that doesn't match one another even though it isn't "aesthetic". I'm glad you're not a sad beige mom of TikTok. Let kids be kids!

[@bridfeeney7428]

Thanks you wrote my comment!

[@DesertDIY]

I totally agree!

[@diannameyers8163]

Thanks so very much for your * Service * Corey. I think I thanked you before. But if not I appreciate you and your sacrifice and bravery 🎉😂❤

[@DesertDIY]

I appreciate that, thank you so much that is so kind of you!

[@sooziessugarshack6695]

Amen thank you for your service ❤️

[@vickiehanan5686]

Tell me more about your military life . I'm also a Veteran but I'm also 68 years old so it was a long time ago. Probably before you were born lol loved everything about this video !!

[@maggiepadilla6915]

Girl, I’m with you! I hate changing sheets and the pillow cases are so annoying and when you sleep , even though I tuck the ends , Fall out and have to be tucked in every day!😡lol. Im 74, 4’8” and we have a king bed, so maybethats why I hate changing the sheets!😂

[@sherriwalker8019]

Really liked how the sewing drawers turned out. I like the "something, something" you put in them, too!! 😊 Enjoyed the tumbling on the new mattress!!😂 It's great that you like being silly with your kids. That's great mom stuff!! Great video today!!

[@DesertDIY]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@MsKatillac]

That bird singing in your outtakes was a cardinal. When I was a kid, I used to mimic their call and the birds would come closer in the trees. Next time you hear one, look for that bright flash of red!

[@JaneNapieralski]

Had no idea you are a Veteran 🇺🇸 Thank you for your service

[@soonergal1422]

I love your videos! I really like all the books. Thank you for service to our great country! Everything is so fun to see.

[@marvineblackburn7846]

The girl's room turned out great! ❤

[@danapassero2232]

You crack me up with your flips on the new mattress!!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!

[@DesertDIY]

Yay! Thank you!

[@diysbydar]

Now, if you ever find a old Beatles album that has a white cover on it. Grab it because it's worth big bucks, I saw you had a white album in your hands from the bin? Love your collection of items this week. They all turned out beautifully. Hang that lamp in your girls room.

[@DesertDIY]

I will definitely be more mindful of that next time! I bet my oldest daughter would want that lamp in her room!

[@gailbradford305]

There is a great storage space in almost every bedroom that is most likely unused! Inside the closetABOVE THE DOOR! You can add long (6”) peg racks (from door frame to ceiling) for long items like umbrellas, gift wrap rolls, etc. (my hubby put a rifle in ours), or you can add a shelf for seasonal clothes,etc.

[@DesertDIY]

Oh wow great idea

[@JaneCannon-r6x]

I love the way you show us how you decorate after buying stuff.

[@OwlingDogDesign]

Haha, you're such a fun mom. 🤣All beautiful things and I love the way you styled them. My favorites are the cheese boxes. I love those. My youngest son found one in the barn, all dilapidated. I'm still using it to keep my kitchen soaps in it. I keep a little towel on the bottom..🥰

[@DesertDIY]

How cute that's a great idea! Thank you so much! I try hard to be the fun mom when I can!

[@cathypurdy5853]

I love seeing you do your booth

[@DesertDIY]

You got it

[@cheryldettone-white2093]

I just recently ran a crossed your channel. I bought a bit my sister and I are big-time posters and we love the goodwill bins. She my sister really roots through them. That’s the time I end up watching her as she holds everything up and you do really good andyou’re so lucky to have a husband that helps you with everything and he’s so good at all the DIY projects and you did such a nice thing helping your sister lol I was beautiful

[@SusanBuckingham-ut2ez]

I love all your treasures! And that beautiful Cardinal singing in the background makes my heart soar.....I love how you arrange like items together to make such cozy groupings. Thanks for taking us along today! Yes, keep showing us your booth! The girl's room is so sweet! Amazing how well they get along! The mattress testing was so much fun!! Love your channel, keep up the great work!

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much! Thank you for letting me know it's a cardinal!

[@angietarpley1983]

Thank you and your husband for your service. Love all your make over.

[@raneemilliman7130]

I just recently found your channel and have subscribed and am trying to catch up with all of your videos. I wanted to say how nice it is to see the Readers Digest Condensed Books being used in people's decor again. There were several years where thrift stores around here (Minnesota) wouldn't even accept them. They would have shelves and shelves of these books. They were very popular at one time and quite affordable, so I think that's why there are so many of them around. I found another channel who also does the Goodwill stores and then stages/styles it in her home. I am so amazed at how many items I see you guys buy now, that I used to own and sold or donated years and years ago. It's fun to see these items again. I have several sewing machine drawers, 4 of which still have the frame around them, so need to see if my husband can mount them between a top and bottom piece of wood, so they can actually be used as drawers again. I am enjoying your channel very much.

[@phoenixfurniturestudio]

What a great selection of finds Corey! 👏👏 Your kids room turned out fab, that hanging net is such a good idea 🎉🤩

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you!

[@melindashahan6836]

I LOVE hearing all your birds in the background!!

[@lesliespradley8897]

Wow😃what a great upcycle of those drawers!! I have upcycled at least 30 drawers of different sizes, and I never thought of wrapping them with some twine or rope and putting flowers in them in that way😮 You have such great ideas and are so inspiring. Can’t wait to make some and put them in my booth. Thank you.

[@sandrasanders9290]

Love the drawers and how you put the string around them to hold the flowers. I would love that in my house. Fun to hear the birds chirping. I live in Minnesota and we just had another snow storm. We are ready for spring.

[@DesertDIY]

Oh no! I hope you get some warm sunshine soon! Thank you!

[@mirandacampbell964]

I love how real you are, I loved the beautiful non perfect girls room! These jumping was funny! Loved your diy’s!

[@freidabaker4919]

You have done such a beautiful job this week! You bring your viewers joy and we appreciate you.

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@Jennifer35678]

Hi Cory! I really enjoyed this video. You had so many good finds and then some surprising up cycles, like the baking pans. I did not see your vision until you staged it, but then, it looked amazing. 😊 I especially enjoyed seeing you jumping on the bed! That does look like a good mattress! I hope you are feeling better soon. Take care and God bless you! 😊❤🙏😊🌸

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it!

[@marilynmarilynohearn476]

Jumping on the bed looked fun. Being 73 I need to have more fun like that I just don't think of it. I did when I was your age. I think you're terrific and definitely my new favorite. Awesome finds at the bins.♥️

[@alicekelley2161]

[@DesertDIY]

i'm so glad you liked it!

[@cindyhoward9620]

Thank you for your service. My grandfather, dad and now my son serves in the Air Force. 🇺🇸 I enjoy your positivity, your flips, shopping at the bins. I shop at Bargain Hunts at their bins. Every bin starts out at $7 then $5, $3 and eventually $1 at the end of the week. I go so often as do others, if we see something we might not be interested in we hold it up to see if anyone else is interested. There may be 30+ people at a time. We all come from different towns and local residents. We have become friends at the bins. Hope you and your family feel better. ❤

[@DesertDIY]

Wow that sounds so fun! And than your family for their service. We have a lot if air force in my family as well

[@crazyantiquelady1583]

[@Sables123]

I’m always behind watching my KZbinrs. Someone must have cleaned out their elderly parents home, the Gone with the wind book, wow. It’s an excellent read btw! The Life magazines and the one with princess Diana, great finds! That was in my era. 1990, my son was born that year. Always love your videos. You are such a kind person and thank you for your service 🇺🇸

Thanks so much! 😊

[@cherylweso]

I repaired OLD treadle sewing machines. I love them as they are. New belts . Polished up and oiled . 110 years old and they still sew! Quilters love them !

[@deltorres2100]

We are empty nesters right now, but when my boys used to live at home, we would make those shelves like that and put them all around the doors because they were all into shoes so the shelves hold their boxes of shoes whether they were Nike or Jordan or puma whatever so now that they’re not living with us I kept the shelves up there, but I use them for storage for my Mason stuff because I do Mason canning And I also put stuff from Costco so I use the back bedroom almost liking overflow pantry. I have a lot of food there. Shelves are great ..I always keep them..never throwing away..just put up ..till needed

[@katherineparker4836]

Thank you for sharing this today 😊

[@DesertDIY]

I love that! thank you so much! When I saw it was the cowboys in the super bowl, I thought wow this is from a long time ago hahaha

[@tracyknight5186]

Love your videos! You inspire me and after watching you I decided, finally, to take the plunge and open my own vendor booth! I have so many wreaths and decor I've made just laying around the house. I have a Facebook group and an Etsy shop but I'm really hoping that by getting the stuff in front of people it will go over better! So thank you for giving me the inspiration and motivation to finally do this 😊

[@DesertDIY]

That is so exciting! Advertise your booth as much as possible on local Facebook groups. It helps tremendously

[@deem4164]

The sewing boxes are gorgeous! Great job. All is so beautiful ❤

Lol yeah I'm a cowboy fan⭐ Wow.. the Gone With The Wind book was a great score! Love what you did with the drawers! Small boxes & drawers are so popular now, you can do so much with them and change them up at any time! I love when i find them. Love all 4 pieces you bought. Use A hair dryer to remover the stickers, the heat will melt the stickiness, it works! Love what you did with all the pieces❤ Love the mattress acrobats😂 We had the 'pet nets' for our kids when they were little. The room turned out super cute. Great video, love all you've done, truly enjoyed😊

I would be on the lookout for some seasonally colored yarn. Then put balls of yarn in one of your crates, maybe the Waverly one along with the set of crochet hooks. If they don't sell right away, you can change up the colors to coordinate with the booths current theme.
