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 !!

[@melindashahan6836]

I LOVE hearing all your birds in the background!!

[@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

[@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! 😊

[@angietarpley1983]

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

[@danapassero2232]

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

[@DesertDIY]

Yay! Thank you!

[@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.

[@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.

[@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

[@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!

[@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.

[@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!😂

[@freidabaker4919]

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

[@DesertDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@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

[@deem4164]

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

[@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.♥️

[@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!

[@sandylaster8152]

You come up with the best ideas! The girls room looks great. I would hang a canopy from the ceiling for the princess bed.

[@DesertDIY]

That would be pretty! Thank you!

[@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

Cory thank you for your service!!! Always love watching you shop and upcycle your finds!!! Prayers you get better ❤️‍🩹

[@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

[@Thatsinteresting363]
