Thrift Store Flips Making over Thrifted Items to Resell as Farmhouse Decor

[@angeladaniels2377]

Love the fact you take off the hardware and paint the backs of items. Makes items look so much better and shows how much you care.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@pjlewisful]

Loved the metal trimmed tray with bead board bottom. One of your videos showed the prices you will charge & I loved that! Please do more often as it helps us in shopping and in resealing.

[@delainelangerman4130]

I love how thorough you are when flipping your items. I’ve watched others who flip, and they do a halfway job. Love your channel, thank you for the tips!

[@elainecanaday7247]

Thank you so much for all the details, tips and tricks! I shared w/my hubby the vaseline tip ( he does woodworking & uses CA glue) he hadnt tried that before! Also found out that he uses the accelerant spray too... for his projects. I liked the metal tray w/bead board bottom and the metal lantern. Keep the great projects coming!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing

[@Cynthia2v]

The second tray you placed the rounded corner piece in, is actually a casserole caddy from Southern Living at home. A 9 x 13 in Pyrex dish fits inside. The original finish is the rusty black finish. I enjoyed watching you make over the other pieces.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that.

[@blancaluna8190]

Yvonne.. I just love everything you do to give a second life to things that catch your eyes ! You have amazing taste! You and your hubby work wonders ♡︎♡︎♡︎

[@janetpoludniak1938]

Love the little truck. Adorable and right in style.

[@lindabarraza2433]

I felt sick when saw the truck broken. So glad to see it fixed. The glue came just in time. You guys work so well together.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Me too .. and it was sent just in time. A blessing I think💝

[@kathywallace9671]

I really enjoy all the love and care you and your husband put into each piece. All of these are such treasures. Thanks for sharing.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for noticing that 💖

[@gailterkelsen7282]

I like most all of your projects but what I enjoy watching the best are the furniture makeovers. Chris is so clever when creating pieces needed to complete or transpose the items. Then you do your paint magic and the pieces turn out beautifully. I’m collecting pieces to do some of my own projects. Thanks for all the instruction on the flips that you do.

[@carolc1961]

I have always loved your painted items and have gotten many ideas from you to thrift things I probably wouldn't have. Now I can't wait to find some cutting boards, those turned out fantastic, so beautiful, they look like new!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that

[@karensmith1243]

I absolutely love how you give new life to all the items you thrift. You are creative

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you 💝

[@susandavies1024]

Thank you for not cutting out the ironing board and bee box just shows people that not every thing works out perfectly love all the work that you both do 🇬🇧

[@GingerChickRehab]

Yes.. I believe that too. Not everything is perfect and easy🤗

[@Riccy102]

You have definitely inspired me! Thank you. I love watching. I also feel you are doing God's work repurposing old stuff and giving it new life.

[@GingerChickRehab]

💝

[@victoriajohnson914]

I enjoy all of the detail you pay to all of your pieces.....amazing quality! Enjoy watching the process...very calming to me as I'm also a detailed person. Thank you for sharing! Beautiful pieces!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that. It’s very much appreciated 💝

[@soonergal1422]

Everything is so beautiful. Thank you for such a relaxing and fun video. Tell your husband Thank you too!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you! Will do!

[@sarahmoore1275]

My favorite was the cutting boards how beautiful they turned out❤️

[@sharoncooper4223]

I have learned so much from watching how you repurpose items, thanks so much for sharing your experience!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for watching and sharing that

[@susanhawks5400]

All the pieces are just beautiful as usual especially the wood pieces!! I love the little truck, I’m so glad he was able to repair it! Your work is just OUTSTANDING!!!

Aww.. thank you

[@elizabethbooth8794]

Yvonne the pieces are all.brilliant! The cutting boards all look brand new! You inspire me daily!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@nancylivingston2778]

You sure have some great ideas I don't have a fav but what another idea is the vaseline inside the tip to prevent from sticking trick, awesome!!!

[@cassandracleveland]

Just watching some of your older videos. You are constantly giving me new ways to look at thrifting! Love it

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww... thank you

[@ginacrusco234]

I ADORE the cutting boards (must use linseed oil on mine) and I'm so glad that the laundry sign worked out after all. You are so wise and patient to just leave it when it's not going your way.

[@judieweisenfeld6110]

I really enjoy watching you work! It’s so soothing. I love how you take real junk and turn it into something modern. Good work!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@kathyortiz4302]

Just absolutely beautiful again.thank you I learned a lot from you two

[@vickidunkle3698]

My grandfather had one of those boxes with the handle and it is a box for shoe shining supplies and brushes and rags ☺ I sobenjoyed watching my grandfather shining his shoes!

[@lillianesparza213]

I just got back from a visit in Arizona and when in Arizona I thrift. They have the best thrift stores. Came home with many items that need a little love and I can’t wait to get started on giving life the my finds. Thanks for inspiring me.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that. Have fun 💗

[@selenaupson3434]

So pretty. All of these are just so beautifully done. Thank you for sharing everything. You’re a wonderful instructor too.

[@jcrefasi1]

Great refurbishing as usual!!! Favorite pieces are the cutting boards and ironically they take the least work! Thanks for sharing Jo

[@GingerChickRehab]

Yes, but they sure are rewarding 💝

[@jcrefasi1]

@@GingerChickRehab I never find any when thrifting except the plastic ones!! I am definitely keeping my eyes open after seeing how beautiful yours turned out

[@lindanave6390]

Everything turned out so pretty! That little truck is so cute. My grandsons would love that!! You and Chris do amazing work! It’s so nice that you both enjoy transforming thrifted pieces into beautiful treasures.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that 💝

[@theresacarpenter746]

Definitely inspired! I can't tell you how many times I've passed over cutting boards...well no more! And never thought of using vaseline on glue tips! I look forward to all your videos!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for watching and sharing that 💕

[@pennydig]

Cutting boards and truck are my favorites!!!! Wish I had room in my garage to do trash to treasures!!!!

[@Gmamajane1]

Yes, the Vaseline tip is a real keeper!!

[@kayfabe591]

Your makeover magic on this part of your Shop With Me haul is so spectacular. Just like the others were. Black and select dark paint finishes are becoming my preference. Your cutting boards are beautifully patterned, like ones I've seen in Williams Sonoma/Leawood, and Pryde's/Westport. Take us on your shopping excursions---please😍🤞💖.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that. I will try🤗

[@blairclark1920]

the rounded edged rectangular "tray" is actually made without a bottom to place a hot casserole dish in! Beautiful re creation!

[@lisastewart8543]

They all turned out great. Loved the mercantile sign.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@reginahall6063]

You give new life to old items.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@marywest2896]

nicole northgarden put books into a metal platter holder like the two you got. really nice and it keeps the books upright. a neat way to display old books.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for noticing that. Yes a great way to display those vintage books💕

[@dellriamseales3806]

I love watching and learning from you and your husband work I am Older Diyer and I do thrift and recycle to sell thanks to you both for your inspiration I love all of your projects stay safe and be blessed

[@GingerChickRehab]

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing that

[@pamelareeves8759]

Love watching your videos. I have learned so much from watching you. All of your items turned out wonderfully. TFS. Have a crafty day.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@franceswilliams5312]

First time viewer and new subscriber here! Love what you did to all the pieces but the little truck is my favorite! Made me think of my Grandma driving their old truck all over the mountain they lived on in California, to pick up all the kids to take them to school. 10 cents a week, per child, her idea, helped after Grandfather died in the depression and leaving her with 6 kids to care for. Happy memory, she was the most awesome story teller! I'm her namesake, she was 65 when I was born (surprise!)

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for watching and sharing that sweet memory 💝

[@robincivis9501]

You are totally inspiring. I just don't think I could be as meticulous as you and your husband are! I don't know what a number five mule is either, but I love, love love that box!!! Great job as usual on all your pieces.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you.. me neither. But I liked it too🤗💝

[@pattyashcraft4518]

LOVE the lantern! And love that some of the red peeks through on the distressed edges.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that 💖

[@robinw7193]

Wonderful video, thank you for all the wonderfully creative tips you've given me. I'll be looking for new treasures at the thrift store! I'm especially excited to find some metal casserole (?) holders, they're often at GoodWill but I never knew what could be done with them. Love your example of a adding a piece of wood for a pretty tray or table centerpiece to show off flowers or fun small stuff!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for watching and sharing that

[@deborahsettles825]

Those trays were casserole dish holders-I love what you did with them!

[@lorrenagoodwin1333]

I love the little ironing board

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you. I thought it turned out cute

[@bethwishitwereviolet5938]

Hi Yvonne! You would think by now I would have some idea what your items will look like when you’re done. I continue to be amazed at the transformations. My heart is full when I watch your videos. On top of learning, being inspired and realizing it’s okay to make mistakes and keep going...your videos give me peace and allow me to forget about our daughters health for a while. I’m weepy now just thinking about how thankful I am for you and Chris sharing with us. So very happy for you guys receiving the variety of glue, and having your amazing workshop to use year round. Thank you dear one! 💕

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww..Gods blessing come in random and odd ways. If I can distract you from your every day life , and who doesn’t need that get a way. As your daughters health is in my prayers always. Stay safe💝

[@bethwishitwereviolet5938]

GingerChickRehab Thank you so much Yvonne. I agree about Gods blessings. You stay safe as well. ❤️

[@zoewilkinson2418]

I love bread boards and buy them all the time. Some I make into risers. Love the little Mule container, and the star shelf. Always great to watch.. Great job both of you. Love it!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that. Yes we make risers out of them as well. Can’t beat the price. And some cool shapes.

[@purpleannie2174]

I love watching your videos as I love thrifting. You give me so many inspirations! I am a crafter and love that your projects don’t begin at the dollar tree!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you so much!

[@kimcharleston2795]

Wow you guys did any awesome job on everything!! Will definitely be looking at old cutting boards differently!! Thank you guys so much for sharing your great ideas!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you.. 💕

[@diannerempel8262]

I never have just one favorite! I love the lantern, the trays, the black pedestal canisters and the "No 5 Mule" toolbox.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you 💕💕

[@terrearmstrong3280]

That white metal tray - oh my!

[@GingerChickRehab]

💝

[@thatssassy9697]

The tray with the rounded corners is made for holding a casserole dish. I find them thrifting all the time. I usually just pass them by, but no longer! Everything turned out beautifully.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing that. I thought the glass just got broken out. The bigger one I have one just like it with glass in it. But they both made nice decor trays now🤗

[@beverlylones9552]

All of your redos always are so beautiful. You and Chris do wonderful work!❤️😊

[@GingerChickRehab]

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for your very kind words 💝

[@marymoyer1773]

Hi there..I loved all your " new life" projects today..I also soooo appreciate your sharing the tip about using Vaseline on the glue tip..I always have had such a time getting mine reopened..but after your trip...no more..lol..I also wanted to share that the nails are horse shoe nails...I love them too... Thank you again... You all take care .your dear kitties too.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you.. I thought it was a perfect opportunity to share that tip. And thank you for sharing about the nails. I knew they were unique. You as well take care. 😻

[@armelleaymonin8907]

Stunning boards and wonderful boxes! Love your craft.

[@lisaholderby3031]

The Vaseline on the tip of the glue 🤯 thank you!! Thank you!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Hope you found it useful

[@gailerspann3068]

beautiful items.... you have influence me soo much to flip items

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that 💝

[@charmerkling1521]

I love the makeover on the cuttings boards with the lint seed oil 😊 so glad you did not paint them and left natural !

[@ajb.822]

Just in case it's not a typo and u or others go looking to buy it, it's " Linseed oil " . It's actually from the flax plant - idk why it wasn't called flaxseed oil, but I think it has something to do with what certain parts of the plant or their uses, were called. The flax plant fibers are where we get " linen" fabric from .

[@valoritreft7246]

My husband is retiring next summer. We both love to thrift shop. I think you have inspired us to up cycle our items . Thank you for sharing.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you for sharing that

[@kimcollins9462]

I am new to your channel, this is my second video and I'm loving watching you... the box that you didn't know what it is..... its a gun cleaning kit box. I got my husband one a couple of yrs ago at Christmas. Its supposed to have 3 or 4 different shelves that come out and the u things that hold the guns so you can oil them and clean them. It had all kinds of things for taking apart and cleaning your guns long or short it had it all in there. I am so glad I found you, I do some crafts and some painting and redo s as well. Great job😀

[@kimberlycooper4170]

Excellent idea! Upcycling and, if the things are bought from a charity's thrift store, the charity makes money to help people.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you and yes you are right 💝

[@lindamorrow7573]

That truck would be gorgeous painted red for Christmas decor....love this channel❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you so much!

[@irenefindlay5683]

Great tip on the Vaseline ,loved everything but the lantern was my favourite

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@karendeakin9628]

My father back in late 50’s was in the industrial chemist team that started to develop super glue unfortunately he never saw it made as he died age 33 in 1963 I often wonder what he’d make of all its uses now

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww..so sorry you lost your father. I wish he could see (or maybe he does) how wonderful that glue is💕

[@tealvintagenest6281]

OMG i just got chills when I read this. So young!!! RIP

[@dianebeland3290]

Taking that lantern apart was a lot more work than I would be willing to do. I give you credit for getting it done.

[@sharongruener6078]

You did a wonderful job on all these items. Thank you for all the tips. I love how the cutting boards turned out. Blessings.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you

[@susanvarnes8073]

I don’t know if anyone else has named it, but I have “thrifters remorse” when I pass something up and then see what you do with a piece!! Love watching your videos.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. That’s definitely i thing.. I’ve had it before.. not a fun feeling 🤗

[@roserollins9800]

I've been seconding that emotion ever since I subscribed

Inspired, for sure!! Thank you!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you

[@marywest2896]

I just LOVE the care you and your husband take to bring treasures back to life. some channels don't even show the finishing wax or poly, makes me wonder if they even did it and how will the chalk paint or whatever brand they used last when cleaned. wished I could visit your shop. would probably need a trailer to take everything home! lol

[@GingerChickRehab]

Aww.. thank you Mary. We really want our items to stand the rest of time. So I’m so you noticed that. 💝🤗

[@idavangrinsven1115]
