trash to treasure home decor * most requested DIY *

[@Katt560]

I learned SO much from this one video. Wow. 1. Spray shellac to seal the wood tannins 2. line up the bottom of the IOD letters (not the stamp itself) on the lines of the acetate 3. Allowing milk paint to sit before using 4. Packing tape hack for stamps that won't stick 5. Milk paint can be used over metal

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. thank you so much for sharing this❤

[@Elizabeth-arb22]

Thank you for writing this out -- so kind of you, Katt560!

[@shellydehart8217]

Awe! I’m so happy for Pepsi. I’m sure when you take her to the vets they’ll do a micro chip to see if she has one. If you’re going to keep her I suggest having it done. She’s definitely a cutie. It so good to know she’s in a loving home. Happy you found some coins, 65 n 66 was some good years for me. They were my growing up years. ♥️🥰👍🌟🌟🐾🐾

[@martivasiliades8407]

Great green ! Reminds me of the 1960's antiquing kits we would get !

[@CatherinePerkins-nl4cg]

I have my grandmothers dresser that was done that way…

[@debbiegrounds9049]

Yvonne, I loved everything!!! The mirror was my favorite. I just love watching you. I learn so much. You have so much patience. Don’t think I have the patience to make one of those beautiful music wreaths. 😉. Hope you reach your 100,000 ❤️

[@mechelegill4651]

Green is quickly becoming a favorite color for me. Love them all! The wreath is always so beautiful

[@cindyblumenthal8315]

I am at the age I have lived through this color and didn’t really like it when it came around the first time. Obviously I still am not fond of it. I would like to know if it is selling well for everybody else, please.

[@KelliBronxGirl]

I can’t believe you were going to get rid of the mirror! It was a simple project and it’s beautiful! I love the way the wax just transform the colors! The boxes also came out gorgeous! You did a great update on them especially painting the hardware! I saw Jami Ray paint her son’s bedroom door windows and it looks fantastic!

[@PaulaJDW]

I could watch you for hours and hours....I absolutely LOVE everything you do!!! ❤

[@Spartanwife27]

I love those old hinges on the bread box…reminds me of my grandmother’s kitchen cabinets! Yes to Artichoke! Gorgeous!

[@BrigetteFranklin]

Yvonne, you need a glue pot . Find yourself an electric skillet and melt a bunch of big glue sticks in it. Then you can just touch the end of whatever you are gluing into the skillet and it goes much faster. Learned this in floral design school. Plus you can regulate the glue temp easily

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh yes.. I’ve used those back in the day when we created more dried floral arrangements

[@lisawitte8038]

Yvonne you have such a talent for making “old” items beautifully remade and new again. Love your creativity!

[@mollycottontail]

You seem to be getting back to your old self. Everything is lovely as always. The mirror is my favorite.

[@conniesanders9755]

I was in your shop yesterday. Picked up a butter pat, some primitive candles. Just on our way home from Diamondale. I try to stop by each time we travel to see family.

[@GingerChickRehab]

That’s awesome.. thank you. What a small world.

[@aprilpeterson6152]

I really love all that you do! Beautifully done projects! I really love your wall of terracotta pots! I’ve suggested this before, I would love to have that wall in a decoupage paper! Especially after seeing it in the mirror! ❤️❤️❤️

[@rashidakarrim9075]

Please do a video for us with ONLY black and white, in honor of the old days. Do love all the color now. Nostalgia is also good.

[@gailrhodes2859]

Loved the window and the wreath!!!!! What an amazing idea 😮

[@angiehale7639]

I have made a couple of your wreaths and they always come out beautifully! Love everything, I always do!!! Thanks for another great video!! ❤

[@deemanolaros6036]

Oh, those greens are beautiful. Love the boxes.

[@gloriabright7544]

Loved the window and wreath!! Stunning! You finished it off properly with backing paper, etc. Sooo nice!❤

[@TriciaB.D]

Love the window wreath ❤

[@melaniebreuer6525]

The mirror , I love it!! the two boxes , great vision for them both,,,,now that wreath, i have seen you make them before , they are beautiful, but i would not have your patience at all, maybe sometime. You did great on all of them!

[@bonnieriner4336]

81 yr. Watching ❤ all your activities, thank you for some enjoyment of my day

[@kateivester3122]

Lovely projects and teaching as always. I realized I enjoyed the video even more than usual.no loud, annoying music..loved it..

[@debbied3116]

Very interesting video today! Loved it! I believe that any of the articles you made today will go into any house decor. Thanks for sharing!

[@michellebisesi4498]

You’re packing tape hack is a lifesaver. One of the best things I’ve learned from you.

[@GingerChickRehab]

Great to hear! It’s saved me from a lot of frustration

[@gailrossi4727]

You do exquisite work on your projects.

[@sharonwinningham808]

Good morning Yvonne! Great to see you continually feeling better! Of course all of your makeovers are spot on! That window tops them all! Loving the brown frame with the glass blacked out! Your creativity never ceases to amaze us! After seeing how beautiful the mirror is with the green ..I'm contemplating repainting my bathroom vanity mirror a shade of green! Thank you again for sharing your tips, ideas and inspiration! God Bless❤❤❤

[@LauraSup]

I love everything!!! I’m definitely going to try to make a wreath! My MIL taught piano for years and I’m sure I can find something in all of her music papers to use! Thank you for the step by step instructions!❤

[@RuthHeller-i3h]

What a wonderful redo on the mirror. Love it! I enjoyed the window also. The bread box and recipe box were great also, I've done some with green and mercantile stamps.

[@cort733]

I had a mirror with a beautiful frame that, over time, started getting black on the mirror area. So it turned it into a chalkboard. Still use it to this day.

[@DeniCowdell]

I think we should ship that window and wreath to my house...lol! Love how your projects turned out! Love your style and I agree green's can be neutral!! Thanks for inspiration!!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Oh.. I wish I knew how to safely ship the windows I do🤗

[@leyab9468]

I made a music sheet wreath because of you! It’s my absolute favorite wreath! Yes it took a while but sooo worth it! Just put some headphones on and watch a movie or listen to some music and it’s done in no time. You’re an absolute inspiration and a great teacher! Appreciate all you do and share with us! I’ve been hanging on to this old window from the 1800’s and 2 old old large picture frames from the same time era. I just keep watching and waiting…. I know something you do will be just right for them. I’m kicking around the antique mirror idea so I may have to back track to some of your old videos for some inspiration 😉 Thank you for sharing today! Loved everything!

[@gailrhodes2859]

I love when you do windows!!!

[@marilynlovett2327]

My breadbox is just like that one built that way my dad built it for me and my little brother routed the word bread on it and you are right it was made in the eighties! Very special I just redone it last week lol The paper wreaths you make are gorgeous ❤

[@larainefleming9143]

Love the mirror and boxes but the window/paper wreath is outstanding ❤

[@Crawfordrusticcreations]

Thank you for sharing such beautiful projects with us. ❤ Every time you bring that green out, I drool knowing it's on my wish list to try. 😀

[@cassandracleveland]

I consider green to often be a neutral 😁. Always enjoy your teaching moments in the videos

[@lisaryherd4593]

I do too, but a lot of people hate green tones!!

[@cassandracleveland]

@@lisaryherd4593 crazy people. Lol. Just kidding

[@marleekosanke145]

The wreath is beautiful on that frame! I wonder what the same technique would look like on a Styrofoam cone would make a great tree. 🤔 ❤😊❤

[@angela3063]

Yvonne I love how the bread box and recipe box turned out. The smaller one would be great for remotes. They all turned out beautiful.

[@b.l.wilson9724]

That window and wreath…❤❤❤

[@karlasommer5341]

I love the texture the paint gave to the glass! ❤

[@rbirkheimer59]

OH my gosh! The wreath on the window........Love it. The mirror, the boxes how sweet! I would have never thought about chocolate on the windows but boy you did. I think your brain is on steroids, my goodness but, only in a good way:) Thank You for all your hard work. God Bless, Hugs, Rebekah. Hi Mr Chick .

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you ❤

[@maureenproell8312]

If you wash your stamps in warm soapy Water and Let them dry they will stick to the flexible mount again. Enjoyed this tutorial style video.

[@lindastowars7346]

MORE GREAT CRAFTS YVONNE, THANKS FOR ENTERTAINING ME.

[@donnamcl6134]

I love the mirror and it looked so cool with the terra cotta pots reflecting in it. Yes the wreath is time consuming BUT well worth it. I have made 4 and I love them. Thanks for the idea of painting the back of window. I just happen to have an old window in my stash. TFS Yvonne

[@GingerChickRehab]

Awesome!Thanks so much! 😊

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@Christie-gp2cy]

Yvonne, I love your personality and tutorial style. You explain as you work and don't rush through like soe crafters who speed up the camera and I do not like that. Thank you for sharing your creativity with us. Blessings😛

[@Marliyn-ri5ez]

Hello, I Love the mirror best, that color is wonderful. I would Love to paint a kitchen in that color with creamy colored cabinets. Love your videos. Hope your health is coming along great. Take care

[@debistone2795]

I am leaving bing your terra cotta collection.

[@KandyKoatedKrafts]

Huh? 🧐

[@cindyblumenthal8315]

Thank you for telling me about the glazing things that hold the window in. I have been afraid the glass would fall out if I took the old glazing off!

[@shellydehart8217]

I think the window idea is awesome. I love those wreaths n yours is perfect on that window. ♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟

[@jackiehutchison6418]

Love that green and what you've done! Think a sunflower Would've looked great on the bread box.

[@francasimonetta3849]

Loved the window and the wreath and my favourite colour green bread box thank you for sharing your talent ❤😊

[@LisaBoyd-dc2wd]

Love the music wreath! I did one last year for a friend and used a John Grisham book that was her favorite. She loved it and I learned how to do it from you! I love your channels and have learned so much from you the last few years! Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing your talents with all of us.

[@GingerChickRehab]

That is awesome! Makes it even more special 💝

[@michellebisesi4498]

The wreath is super cool, but I have not been blessed with that kind of patience. Lol.

[@beaeberts3873]

I think the wreath would be pretty made from Christmas wrapping paper.

[@darlayoung6889]

Hi! Just wanted to thank you for the idea of using shallac on old wood! Redoing some old drawers and I love the way they look and turned out! Love your videos!

[@mrs.pattiderge6743]

I am so glad you saved the mirror. I love the green. And, you put wire on the back for vertical or horizontal hanging! You are just so thoughtful. It is wonderful that you save all these items from possibly ending up in landfills. Yvonne, have you ever shopped at something called the Goodwill Bins? I guess it is the last stop for items. On some things you pay by weight. I have never gone to one. I just saw it on some other channels. Have a blessed day!

[@smvl2c]

I love all of these! But the mirror is my favorite.😊

[@carolmcmanus-ox4vk]

Thanks for showing how to do that wreath again! All projects were gorgeous!😊

[@margaretdillinger5090]

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful 😅. I’m glad you kept the mirror. I love the paper wreath.😊❤ I’ve done a couple but I did cones. 🤗

[@elizabethboggs9058]

Good info on lining up letters ….great video, as usual. 🥳

[@lisasmart1929]

[@gailhannon5794]

I LOVE the crackling and chippiness! The green is so very pretty 🎉 The breadbox and recipe box look great in my fave green!❤ And one of my favorites…a wreath on a window! Just beautiful!😊 Thanks for sharing!❤

[@catheymarker8676]

I was wondering where you were going with the color on the window but it looks just stunning!!! Trust the process!!!

[@DarinRager]

Try using a deck of cards to slip between the mirror and frame to protect the mirror from the paint

[@jillherwig4865]

You did a wonderful job on all of them I never can get enough of your channel thank you so much.❤❤❤❤

[@charlotteragan6583]

I don’t like green anything, but it is because I had an avocado kitchen for years and years. I love the boxes. Most of your videos make me say she was right to change that. Thanks for sharing.

[@Freddybender123]

Green is my jam❤goes with everything IMO..great projects love watching you I’ve also learned a ton from you!🎉thank u for all u do!

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you!

[@lisagrafton2529]

The wreath, with just the first row of paper, reminds me of a sunflower!

[@RuthStucky]

Great boxes and super pretty window

[@heatheryoung9949]

Yes I have made a wreath like your S. I absolutely love it.

[@valerieharman9838]

Wow, milk paint was perfect for the mirror.

[@marymcghee3023]

Mirror is gorgeous! Love the green color.

[@tlur8813]

Green is a neutral color!😊

[@lindajensen1587]

Add dry to cold water ( add dry corn start to water) Add hot water to dry (add hot water to dry hot chocolate ).

[@debbiecharlwood8485]

Could you use a soldering iron to make a little hole then glue your paper onto wreath 😊

[@GingerChickRehab]

I guess you sure could

[@nancypisar8854]

Love them all

[@debgersh5555]

So glad you showed us how you made that paper wreath 🙏🏼 I just love it

[@dodipc]

Love watching you create❣️

[@debbiewroe5388]

I watched another video of yours recently where that wreath was in the background, and I commented on it at that time. So, THANK YOU for sharing how you made it. I think it's so pretty!

[@melaniegrant9681]

I made punch wreaths many years ago with little squares of material into a straw wreath the same way you did paper wreath.

[@deemanolaros6036]

The window and wreath are gorgeous ❤

[@Freddybender123]

Time to get the detail sander out..just bought one from harbor freight for 10.00!..with a coupon..it’s usually 20.00 works great!

[@11212lala]

I made the music page wreaths before. Also, used tea stained coffee filters and dyed white coffee filters. They are beautiful! I love making them. Love those storage containers. All your projects are wonderful. Thanks! 😊

[@marlieblanton198]

Thanks for another fabulous video with lots of inspiration. I have made a few of the hymnal wreaths with several more ordered. I don't know if you remember me, but I sent you a few of my grandpa's old hymnals from their old church, and this is what you made from them. I am so grateful to you for sharing with me the process to make them. ❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

Thank you.. I appreciate it. Warms my heart.❤

[@dianna11]

Suggestion for radio flyer wagon, red in color with inside having some rust. I was thinking you have done a project in the last year(?) that sealed in the rust and I think you painted it.

[@GingerChickRehab]

I’ve do a wooden wagon..

[@DenaHolland-q6y]

I love the window with the wreath. Great idea ❤

[@GingerChickRehab]

It does

[@susanhaggart3675]

Wow the mirror is gorgeous. Love it.

[@stacypolk3580]

I would have left the bread and recipe boxes original. They're very cute.

[@lisaryherd4593]

I can see why the other mirror sold so fast, the olive is a beautiful color!!!

[@cathycoons9032]

That glue pot is a great idea
