Thrift to Treasure - Upcycled Goodwill Bins Finds - Spring is in the Air

[@MariaStone-d5y]

I love these videos…none of the wasted chit chat…you are very talented…

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you for watching! ❤️ I’m assuming you’re referring to my LIVES when you mention unnecessary chit chat. It would be completely impossible to do a LIVE without the additional chit chat. I know they aren’t for everyone and that’s why I put out so many different forms of content.

[@MariaStone-d5y]

@@SonnetsGardenBlooms that’s why I like these the best!!💕

[@youfounduswi]

@@SonnetsGardenBlooms The lives are growing on me. I just watched Fridays live while I was cleaning out the china cabinet. Part of the fun is hearing you figure out what is best to do. And fixing booboos!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I love hearing they are growing on you!! ❤️

[@clej1]

I just love those cross stitch pictures, they are so so beautiful ! I cant believe someone didn't want them! And they look even more beautiful in their newly painted frames!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you! 😊

[@Vaflnana]

Love the decoupaged ceiling fan blade at the beginning. It would be pretty to do all of a small ceiling fan in a child’s room like that.

[@shygirl-vg9re]

I love your videos,the basket I love and your tansfer.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you so much!😊

[@Thatsinteresting363]

The footstool stole my heart! ❤❤❤However, I do love all the projects!

[@SouthernMama2five]

I loved the way you applied the crackle medium with the Fusion paint. It really complimented the stitched pieces!

[@robynnkuhns9180]

I've missed these videos. Thanks for posting.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I’m trying to get a variety of videos for everyone. I will definitely continue to do these Thrift to Treasure videos! 😊

[@makersunify]

These turned out great!

[@ginacrusco234]

Hi Sonnet! I think you picked exactly the right color scheme for the bench -- not too matchy-matchy, as they say. My absolute fave is the lion-legged piece; your choice of the lion stamp was smart!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thanks Gina! 😊

[@dorothylehman4164]

I love love love. Love the little footstool or the little riser. Kid used it as a rise or for a plant a potted plant. It's really nice , I like that

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you Dorothy. 😊

[@bettys375]

You are quite an artist, so talented. I love your videos, they are so informative I get mesmerized & time gets away from my households, but it’s good because it helps me take breaks. Then I can’t sleep due to my mind running down rabbit trails for projects. 😅

[@Lamara5292]

I like your thrift to treasures and booth updates, I find them inspiring.

You always come up with the most creative and beautiful upcycles!

Love the stool! You inspired me to try painting my fabric furniture… I have an old ottoman I want to try.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

You’ll be amazed at how easy it is! 😊

[@jeanine6492]

Definitely with the stencil! All cute.

[@Martbez1]

Thank you Sonnet! You're a darling! That was a nice Sunday surprise to have a Thrift upcycled video from you. The little bench is my favorite - if I must choose.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you Martie! 😊

[@joanb7567]

It looks like the 2 embroidery pictures might be on some old paintings…if you look at the back of them , it looks like canvas and the frames are definitely used for paintings…if you haven’t sold them you might want to check that out😊

[@amandamilliken4732]

That first one with the birds 😍! Gorgeous!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I loved how that one turned out! 😊

[@amandavelderman4978]

The crackle on those frames!!! I absolutely loved it!

It turned out perfectly. 😊

Love these❤

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you Rachel. 😊

[@pattyredden5123]

I loved them all but I think my favorite was the needle point pics

[@lalat6543]

I think since you wet distressed the legs, the dark color poking though (although not the same color as the stencil) ties everything together. I love it!

[@terrihart2133]

All items were great. Love to see this format.

[@ChristineDuval-cy5ck]

My favorite is first project and riser with lion feet.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thank you Christine! 😊

[@melonmahfood2439]

Very excited to see a flip video! So agree, paint the stool legs black and will be a super quick sale.

[@nancycowan6109]

Hi Sonnet! I really enjoyed watching your video today! I just wanted to tell you that I think you have a great “eye” when you thrift and pick!! Love the types of items you use when you do trash to treasure. And your ideas are so creative, and beautifully done. Keep up the good work-I’m living vicariously thru you! ~Cathy

It just seems to complete the piece when the backs are done! 😊

[@aliciawilliams2996]

They’re all fantastic ❤ the white basket is just timeless, which is my favorite style of anything! I just painted a large trinket basket the same and was just amazed at how simple and impressive that flip was! 🤯🤗

I have used four different types of mineral and chalk paint, and DIY is the best for wet distressing, I feel. My favorite is the footstool today.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I absolutely agree about the DIY paint! 😊

My husband just heard you say “centerized”. He looked at me with this puzzled look…I explained to him that’s your word! It’s a real word!😁🤣💕. Love all your projects today! That little silver lion stand is a cool find!!

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

This just made my day! Thank you for sharing that centerized is a word!😊

[@marciroen254]

It is a real word but it's meaning is not used correctly in this context. I cringe every time I hear you say it. The correct word would just be "centered".

[@kimberlonhorton762]

@@marciroen254that might be true…but I taught high school English for years. I don’t know much, but I do know that language is organic. New words are made all the time and our language is alive and ever changing. Sometimes I do cringe when the English language is not used correctly…other times I think hmmmm…new word…cool!😁💕

I am crazy about the door and the note pad holder! Oh my gosh! Beautiful!! The stool turned out so great!

Centerized is not a word.

[@delilahklenk6658]

I think that very first project could be used as a macrame board as well as a note pad holder

[@leeannhull9586]

You didn't mention what you sealed it with after you painted the top with the DIY paint please

[@nancychannel8513]

It would be so fun if you could find a cloche that would fit the silver piece that was painted white

[@Yachtnurse51]

Or I would use it for nice artificial fruit or green artichokes (I saw them staged in a French culinary magazine) magnifique🧑‍🍳👨🏻‍🎨😀

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

That would be a perfect touch! 😊

[@patmontalbano290]

Yes the silver piece does look better painted, but you redid the stamp because the distressing is different.

[@debirice7405]

The knobs are called wing nuts!

Thank you! 😊

I wet distress fusion paint all the time but I do it within 24 hours of painting the item.

[@lamonarankin5504]

Could the silver piece painted beadboard be used outside in a garden?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Absolutely! I would put at least one more top coat on, but it would be beautiful in a garden! 😍

[@calinbrown517]

If I'm not sure about how the stamp will look I will stamp it on the clear sheet it comes with using permanent ink,then use THAT image to see if I like it or not! I just keep the stamped pieces in a Ziploc bag,then when I get a piece I want to stamp, pull out the bag and play around with them all 😏 until I get the look I want! But I think everything came out perfectly and I love them all!!!❣️🙏🏼 4 ✌🏼 AlWaYs

Thank you for this. I simply don’t have time to watch a full live video.

[@estelleadamski308]

The fabric seems a little loose in the pics. I've heard pouring hot water on the fabric makes it tighter. Have you heard of it? I used it once and it seemed to work, it drew the fabric tighter. Of course you have to worry about it leaving a water stain. Just found you and subscribed.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Hi Estelle! I have not heard of that idea to pour hot water to tighten fabric. I’ll have to think about that one! 😊

[@pennyhexter3475]

I would love to start selling upcycled items. I have a hard time imagining where to start. I see a lot of people who are well into thier business. But how to start from the beginning?

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Penny you just start with one piece and most of us started selling on Facebook Marketplace or some other platform first. Then once you get enough inventory built up you can start looking for a small booth to move your pieces through. 😊

[@debbieholbrook3827]

❤❤❤❤

[@traceye.6428]

All of the pieces are lovely. The word you are looking for is “centred”, not “centerized”. As in “I centre my stamp on the footstool”

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Thanks Tracy. I have always said centerized, so I guess that is just my way of saying centered. Maybe it’s a Wisconsin thing.🤷‍♀️

[@DeniCowdell]

Dark wax the little stool

[@tarahall8680]

For those who can’t afford expensive products, school glue will give the same finish as these crackle products. Application is the same…brush on, let get tacky, then one swipe of paint. Honestly, I’ve tried both and prefer the glue.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Yes! Thank you for sharing this Tara!

[@Yachtnurse51]

So if you use DIY paint on fabric you don’t need to water it down??🤓

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Some fabrics won’t require water, but for the most part, it’s best to use a misting bottle to allow the paint to sink into the fabric. That way the fabric won’t be so stiff when it dries. 😊

[@MonaGP]

We’re the screws hard to take out, it really annoyed me 😂

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

It just didn’t occur to me to do that. 🤷‍♀️😂

Needed to stretch tapestry more, the wrinkling is distracting from the beauty of the piece

[@reddawn2072]

Not much improvement on the four needlework pictures. They needed to be covered with glass.

[@dorothylehman4164]

I guess you notice you have sags in your fabric. Probably should have stapled it on each corner. That was gonna be hidden under the frame. Before you put it in the frame baby. I'm just saying maybe that would have helped you

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

Yes I know that there is a little slack in them. I may go back and tighten them before they go into my booth. 😊

[@debo398]

There is no such word as "centerized." What you want to say is "center," or "centered." The first is present tense and the second is past tense.

[@SonnetsGardenBlooms]

I know, people always give me grief about the way I say it. I have always said centerize so I guess it’s my own word. 😊 it must be a Wisconsin thing. 🤷‍♀️
