I love the rooster. Everything was simple and elegant.

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Gail! He is a handsome fella 🐓

[@sandrabrock362]

I loved it without the gold on the blue and I just thought for sure you would use white wax on the clock with it having all the flower detail. The white wax would have looked so pretty over the peach flowers. Loved them all, your so talented !!! I watch all of your videos. You have the gift.....

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks so much, Sandra! And I completely agree about the gold on the blue! Way better without it.

[@nyokadean8624]

Haha! I thought you were having a cup of tea or coffee, and then you put paint brushes in the cup. If I had tea and painted, I would probably drink the paint water!😂 Love your videos

[@elegantupgrades]

😂 Hahahah! I’m surprised I haven’t done that yet. I think my only saving grace is that I have a mild mug obsession and only drink from my favorites.

[@Jendarhan64]

As usual, you made everything beautiful and looking high end! Love the close-up view of your process! The rooster is my favorite!!!❤❤❤❤❤

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Jenny! And I was trying out that view, I’m glad it went over well.

[@deborahmatatall]

I like all of these! The leaf is gorgeous and looks so fresh and happy! Isn’t it interesting when the items tell you what they want to be. I usually have an idea of what I want to do before I start. Sometimes the piece takes a hard left after I get into it.🌸

[@elegantupgrades]

So true! I’ve had countless pieces boss me around 😂

[@IndieAnnieJones1]

Beautiful! I really love what you did with the clock. That was my favorite😊

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you!

[@marvineblackburn7846]

The leaf turned out so sweet!!

[@martinebangs6520]

Hi Taryn, love these smalls, the rooster was my favorite, I want to do something like that soon, the leaf is gorgeous too...Take care...cheers !!! 🍁 🍁

[@elegantupgrades]

If you do, let me know how it turns out!

[@carolinedubose5136]

Everything looks wonderful Taryn!

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks so much, Caroline!

[@kimhough7753]

Love everything Taryn! You are sooo talented! Hope all is well with you and baby! 🥰🥰🥰

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Kim! We are doing great! Getting ready for the home stretch 🥰

[@lindaposta939]

You really upgrade all these finds! I paint some smalls also, and I found that using a small wooden lazy Susan that I thrifted to paint made it much easier

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Linda! I love the idea of using a lazy Susan- I just always end up selling them 😂

[@veronicapreciado2325]

Loved them all 😊❤

[@elegantupgrades]

Thanks, Veronica!

[@lesliezagrobelny4820]

[@carlaorjohn]

Precious projects ❤❤❤ hope you are feeling well ❤❤❤

[@elegantupgrades]

Thank you, Carla! I am- and trying to get ready for the big day 🥰

[@maggiesapanara3959]

Would really like to know what paint are you using in the jars, for us that are new, it would be good to tell us what paint your using on the projects, I know you mentioned your old paint but usually people let you know the products being used throughout the video.

[@elegantupgrades]

I’m sorry, Maggie. I believe I showed the paint and mentioned the name while I was mixing it up- Farmhouse Finishes if you wanted to know about the milk paint. And the regular paint I use is Chalk Mountain.

Hi Taryn, I clicked on your channel & up the top where it’s got shorts - videos etc, I clicked on videos & then it came up saying that this channel has no videos??? I can obviously find videos if I scroll, but I don’t understand why your videos wouldn’t show up when I select the videos tab from the bar at the top??? I took a screen shot, so if u want me to send it u, let me know, cheers Barb

[@elegantupgrades]

How strange! I checked it on my end and it all shows up fine 😳 I’ll have my husband check from his account and see if we can get them to pop up. I really appreciate you letting me know!
