As always, your insight on color combos is spot on. Everything turned out amazing and I'm sure your customers are happy with the final results. Love the Tater cameos!

[@vickiwilson8752]

Since I don't have a style, and am definitely not into the rusty, crusty, chippy look, I don't understand why I am oddly obsessed with your channel. I like how you think things through and then explain your process in a way that I can understand and use should I try to make something for myself.

[@marvineblackburn7846]

She does have a great way of speaking and explaining her process with us! Love your comment!

[@vintagelady1]

Sometimes it's just inspirational to watch someone who is so organized & creative---it gets me to thinking "I should do something w/ the xxxxxx sitting in my stash!" And Yvonne has a pleasant way about her so it's a pleasure to watch her!

[@judithbarker215]

I can't believe you didn't do a transfer on it! (The desk thingy)

[@GingerChickRehab]

When you feel it you know.. 🤗

[@michellelaux798]

You ALWAYS inspire me.

[@nancypisar8854]

Awesome

[@cathycoons9032]

Cool makeovers

[@rosiewehner5060]

Ohhh,never get tired of watching you paint, love and get excited to see the outcome of everything you paint 😊

[@deebeckham4754]

As always you blow Me away.

[@barbaranewland8220]

Oh I would love some swans.

[@sherriwalker8019]

Painting over price tags is a pet peeve of mine too!! 😮

[@tracyshumaker8272]

I ❤ that Cambridge with the black wax

[@brokenvesselsstudiowithtri428]

It's a Lap Desk!! Oh, my word, I'd recognize it anywhere. I worked at The Bombay Company all throughout college. It's never looked better, Yvonne. Beautiful work, as always!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Yes.. it was a Bombay company piece

[@lisacrafton7485]

Love those swans

[@JeanneAlbarado]

Hi there, love every color you used!! They all turned out amazing! Can’t decide if I like the metal riser or swans most. They both look stunning🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for 31:50 Jeanne Baton Rouge 31:50 another great video!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@Renee-u2r]

I love the yellow bowl 💛💛💛

[@debbiewalters706]

Oh those swans! I bought one at habitat that is wood and don’t know where to even start to paint it!

[@BarbaraDumler]

Love the swans!❤

[@marilynmccormick1658]

I pictured sheet music laying inside the robin egg blue portable desk, sitting on a small table near a music stand. My vision.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Great vision

[@suzanne9204]

I probably would have put putty in the neck of each of the swans so you didn’t see the line of where you place the neck into the hole.. Just a thought.. making it look seamless.

[@GingerChickRehab]

I could have.. been then it would have looked more manufactured than a hand crafted piece.

[@cretapoole857]

You do very good at what you do. Enjoyed

[@joycecrull8986]

That black wax really makes a difference!😊

[@dorothybeaty3638]

Always the swans are my favorite

[@tlur8813]

What will you be asking for the swans. I’m from Iowa, I may have to make a trip to your booths! I’ve been there before. 🦢 ❤️

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. wow.. I guess depending on where you live in Iowa is not terribly far. $75 for the pair

[@tlur8813]

Awesome, if I make it there I will find your booths. Thanks! $75 is a great price for your work!

[@ginacrusco234]

I'm so glad that you experimented with surface prep long enough to discover that shellac helps curtail milk paint chippyness. Unpredictability is all well and good, but I think it's nice to know what kind of result you're going to get!

[@carolynray531]

You do such a wonderful job! What do you find are your best brushes to use? ❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

paintedheirloom.com/collections/brushes/products/decoration-spalter-brush-one-series-1060 This is my absolute favorite. Really any of them from this company. Little by little I keep investing in more of them.

[@swingdancer49]

As usual love them all, but I will say that CURRY bowl...be still my heart, but then you did those swans and I fell in love all over again...great work :)

[@phoenixfurniturestudio]

These all turned out fabulous!! 🎉🤩

[@cindyherbold2384]

I like them all, but, my fav is The patina on the metal riser. Turned out beautiful. I want to learn how to do this. What products, where to buy, etc.❤❤😊

[@GingerChickRehab]

Check description under piglets closet

[@caroleminvielle9554]

I think portable writing desks are called escritoires.

[@martinaconroy2328]

Love love swans .. you did such a gorgeous job as always . You could be a teacher for milk paint . If it ever comes to Ireland I’ll be a pro ❤❤❤

[@paulabodine5317]

Yvonne, you did a phenomenal job on every piece! You’re a pleasure to watch. I look forward to all your videos. Happy Easter and God Bless.

[@trinadorcheus1719]

Your work is incredible and your attention to detail is awesome!

[@margaretdillinger5090]

The swans and writing desk are my faves. That metal riser might be a cake stand. There’s are kinds out there. I love the design around it, kinda like an Art Deco design. You always make everything beautiful looking. What do ya do with a cat like Tater? You love him and cuddle with him.😊❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

Love him.. that’s for sure😻

[@deborahtaylor-baker844]

Of course I love the swans the most but I also love the curry bowl.

[@pamelacook7933]

Love the swans. And the rusty technique on the galvanized riser is gorgeous. Love your style. Love your channel.

[@marycoffee7366]

The riser’s new look is my favorite update👏👏👏

[@cathyjackson5959]

The bowl looks like a turtoise shell!!!

[@rosiemorales7783]

I love when you use Curry color with black wax. Stunning!!🌻🌻🌻🦋🦋🦋🙏

[@TerryGlancy]

Love the swans!

[@gracemoore384]

That curry yellow bowl is absolutely gorgeous!

[@gailhannon5794]

Love the writing desk! The color is fabulous!🎉That curry bowl is gorgeous!😊 The sweet potato shaker box is just adorable!❤ Love the galvanized riser! The patina is gorgeous! So primitive looking!🎉 The swans are beautiful and crackly!😊 love them all!❤

[@dianehatmaker415]

I liked the galvanized riser and the curry bowl most but liked them all!

[@terifawcett]

Surprisingly I like that harvest color😊

[@dannamccallum4153]

Been watching you for a while now and was thinking about how much shellac and sandpaper you use in a week. I’m guessing a lot. Lol! Love your color choices.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Not as much as you think 🤗

[@kelly9556]

Once again very beautiful!❤😊

[@nancystanger7430]

The writing desk was my favorite

[@vickiulrich6694]

I would struggle to choose between Colonel Mustard, the primitive pumpkin and the swans. I truly loved all 3 of those makeovers. The yellow and orange are my absolute favorite colors you use right now. And swans are just downright beautiful on any given makeover. I was just thinking about you a couple days ago as I saw the swans nesting on the ponds. To me there is nothing more beautiful than wildlife on the water this time of the year. I live on a river but there are swans on just about every pond near me. God truly did create so much beauty for us to embrace. Tater just makes me chuckle during his kitty phase. As he grows into a mature boy he will settle into a more behaved cat…maybe! Just another one of Gods creations for us to enjoy!!!:):):)

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you for sharing this ❤

[@barbarajenkins8050]

The curry bowl and the riser are my favorites, but all of the pieces are beautiful. ❤

[@sharonwilson5489]

Ru kidding ?! I would watch you fold towels! Yvonne you are a master! Xo

[@kimbutzin2638]

I saw one of those writing desk recently but they wanted $28 for it so I didn’t buy it. It was at an antique store.

[@deanasharp4775]

All are my favorites lol❤

[@cjhallsmith]

That riser!! Everything about was amazing. Those swans gah!!! I have been searching for swans in my price range for years and to see that you found those is thrift shop!!! Swoon. 😍Beautiful as always.

[@BrendaPhilyaw]

Watched this on my tv and just finished watching it again so I could give you a ‘like’. I never tire of seeing you work. You are so kind and sweet. I might also like you because you love cats and old things as much as I do. Of course I am old enough to have used some of these old things in my younger years. That Tater could win anyone’s heart. He is adorable, but Peach is a darling too. I have two cats Moe and Callie and they are precious. I have a little Shi Zu dog that is almost seven. She has been my best bud since my husband passed in October of 2022. All grandchildren are grown and the youngest is a Freshman in college so my pets are may main reason for getting up TFS.

[@diannameyers8163]

My favorite saying is... I'm rescuing not collecting. (when I go out thrifting) 😅🎉❤

[@KatyMaynard-op4vo]

❤❤❤

[@kimbecicka9333]

Love these makeovers, only wish my pieces I’m doing for my home looked as good as yours. Love the PaintedHeirloom also!

[@judithstonier9872]

Although I'm not always keen ona chippy look I loved how the writing desk turned out and I always enjoy your process and how you explain everything 😊❤

[@memphis2375]

Love the bucket and then the swans well…then everything else! 😊

[@cathysmith387]

They are all beautiful but the bowl and swans are my favorite.

[@shellydehart8217]

Awww, you must know it had to be the swans as my favorite. They look so beautiful with a little crackle here n there as if they’ve been around many years. I also liked the bucket. Adding the black wax gives it a new yet old item that’s been around too. I must admit I’m getting to like curry yellow n the orange pumpkin colors more n more. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟

[@lindastowars7346]

GREAT VIDEO YVONNE, ALL OF THE CRAFTS WERE GREAT

[@joycesweeney4447]

You find the neatest stuff. We dont find stuff like this in our area.

[@marvineblackburn7846]

I'm in love with that Curry color!! ❤

[@katherineharper-sj4ys]

Always sorry when I come to the end of your videos. I really liked the galvanized riser. Looks so authentically rusty crusty.

[@made_in_germany]

All I'm gonna say is, you are so amazing and talented.

[@amymeyeraan-wz9fy]

I love the swans but that riser is gorgeous!

[@rbirkheimer59]

I liked everything but, I loved the swans the most. You can make everything look so good. God Bless. Hugs, Rebekah.

[@loisgoodman]

That riser though!!!❤

[@cathyhatfield5340]

Great projects I love the all! That paint is amazing 👍😎❤️

[@gwencobb1452]

I think a stamp or transfer would have looked grear on that desk top

[@francasimonetta3849]

I loved everything the swans and the bowl I my favourite thank you for sharing 🥰

[@kuttfam0191]

You need to have a segment called "Tater Time." Even if it is at the end of your video or only on the other channel. Tater is so curious! I think my favorite today was the swans. I never knew I liked swans so much until you started making them over.

[@patriciafockler2683]

Swans, everytime😊

[@mollycottontail]

I love the riser and the bucket, never mind I like it all!

[@helenr.2184]

I remember buckets (like the one you made over) from the 60’s & 70’s. They were ice buckets…had an insulated insert with a lid.

[@joanwright4921]

The swans on the riser would look neat I think! Wish you were posting them on eBay! 😭🧡

[@lisawelker1166]

The patina on the tray is amazing...one of your best results using the patina products.

[@michaelbuchtel6346]

I have learned so much watching your techniques!!! It has improved my projects tremendously!!!

[@sarahrenfrow9795]

❤

[@christinagerardo2858]

The swans 😮are beautiful 😍

[@mj50may55]

My favorite is the rusty crusty riser very unique!💖

[@sherrymcsherry2984]

I’m really loving the milk paint. I bought several colors about a year ago. I used pantry door on a pair of candlesticks that I made from old spindles. Nothing happened. It was just a nice paint job with my hand distressing. I haven’t used SPMP since. You’re a great teacher. I’ve leaned so much. I’m ready to give it another whirl. My next purchase will be the curry and the sweet potato. Gorgeous colors.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh yes.. I’m learning that if the wood is to raw it soaks right in. Shellac helps with the crackles .. but candle wax ( before paint) helps get that chippy look

[@leannearthur292]

Love the bright colours

[@honeybee5420]

I love the wood bucket, that was my favorite 😍

[@annelane2966]

I love how the swans turned out. I wish I could shop your booth!!!

[@angela3063]

I love how those swans turned out..all your projects always turn out great.❤

[@marvineblackburn7846]

I dont mind watching you do the same thing over and over because it helps me remember the process. So, thank you! ❤

[@janicelang2232]

Everything is wonderful as always! But... my favorites are the bowl piece (and I just ordered that paint) and also the tin thing that you rusted up. So yummy!

[@junerobbins6871]

Love the portable writing table. Its awesome ! The color is perfect I have a plastic flat one that I really like. Its lightweight and not bulky like your wood one, but it isnt a lap desk. Just a tablet holder with a clip board on the top. I can store a little bit in it. Love, love, love the curry bowl. The black wax was just what it needed. I do believe it's my faviorite in this video.

[@pamwebb4548]

Love, love, love the makeovers you do!!!

[@lorrainelewandowski8737]

Love the swans

[@donnamcl6134]

Today my favorite is the swans. TFS Yvonne Happy Easter!
