DIY THRIFT FLIP DECOR (simple DIYS with common thrift store items) | XO, MaCenna

[@ARdecoDesignandDevelopments]

The turnout of the waste basket is SO BEAUTIFUL! 💙💛

[@Budscer]

I love seeing your creative process! Thanks for showing all the twists and turns, not just before and after. 🤍✨

[@GabrielleMcHargue]

I know it seems so elementary but I LOVE when you include your "mess ups". We all learn from it, and it makes me personally feel comfortable attempting DIY projects, knowing even if I "mess up" i just have to adjust and move on, and still can come up with a super cool piece!

[@tanisham5544]

So true... it really shows how much she love doing her job and we should not be scared of attempting too...haha..

[@melissas499]

Definitely going to give the planter a try!! 😉👌🏼

[@lucielewis6438]

You’re soo talented! All your DIYs are great. Always!

[@MrKirby365]

I like the placemat hanging i would have done even more center fill it looked great! Souch wonderful inspiration and great! Information.

[@marylourobles9684]

You are super fab!!! Soooooooooooo talented!!! Love your positive happy energy!!

[@jeanne1765]

Love these. What if you put some of the cane on the inside against the glass too. You'd still be able to see inside and you'd shore up the broken glass. I wouldn't put felt or wood behind the cane. I like the see through too.

[@24appleberries]

Amazing DIYs, especially the tassel planter!

[@janiefoglewohlerspantryand2102]

Love the shadow box. So happy to see the hinges put on correctly also. That is a pet peeve of mine. It turned out beautiful but another alternative might have been two sided tape. You might want to put some tape clear tape over the crack just for safety reasons also I love that wall hanging. What if you would have done in Larks head through the open weave of the placemat? I love to go along with you on your thought process. You're so talented Hi Kinsley, hi Romeo❤

[@carlyh6913]

I liked the basket x

[@japonesa5186]

Beautiful!

[@whitneymurray3369]

How would I make the placemat craft more farmhouse? That's my style. :)

[@zuzanafoitova7632]

SUPER

[@jordynhutchison4510]

The wastebasket turned planter is GORGEOUS!

[@zoeemiko8149]

When you need to flatten cane lay it between 2 slightly damp warm dishtowels & set something heavy on top for about 10 minutes.

[@conniesisco6468]

I was not digging the middle section of the weaving on that basket. Then you TOTALLY saved it! Thanks for sharing!

[@oldschool_loul]

Me too!!

[@seanmorgan2356]

I actually liked the middle section with the wire showing, industrial chic. But once the top rim was wrapped, there was no balance with the wire. So I would have left the top unwrapped to show the wire. BUT, I love her finished project, too!

[@mjsajida]

My heart shattered when u cut off the existing waste basket weaving cause it’s already beautiful but the flip turns out good too!

[@connieh.4689]

Ditto! Admittedly the finished piece is gorgeous though😊

[@journeytoahappylife7757]

Yeah, I really like the existing basket it was so unique.

[@marcelaperez2436]

Me too!

[@bushraahmed1288]

Your DIYs seriously make me itch to renovate my entire house I love them all so muchhhh

[@CH31354]

sameee

[@wania.wajiha]

Sameee 🦋✨!!!!!

[@XOMaCenna]

Aww thank you so much!! 🥰

[@dhangzbuensalido2542]

I know right!!! I am starting to renovate evrything now because of her videos,it also inspired me now to buy cheap stuff and make it fabulous just like hers😊..I have a lot of things on my mind..lol

[@jakejakejakelaylajake9280]

XO, MaCenna where’d u get the table in 14:22? Please reply, i really want to get the same!

[@OrganizeCreateDecorate]

I absolutely love the waste basket turned pot cover/holder. It's gorgeous.

[@Sarah-pc6sc]

That was my favorite

[@readeenaajohnson]

Why dont u just put another piece of cane on the inside. Line the holes up. You wont see the glass and u can still see inside the box.

[@juliefreeman9754]

You could also embellish with something over the cracked glass on the inside. It would be a nice surprise when you open it...

[@yorkielover1027]

Deena, I was just going to suggest the same! 😅

[@carolinenorris4263]

I literally came here to say this...

[@kimberlylopez3230]

I was going to suggest mod podge tissue, it would still have that translucent effect

[@patriciaoldfather6377]

Cane in the inside was my first thought, too! 👍🏻

[@FiaGarciaDIY]

*Can I just say how excited I am that thrift flips are coming back again!* 🤞🏻 all of this craziness starts winding down! These look amazing off of the thumbnail alone! 🧡

[@taylorwalker66]

Would love to see if you can come up with a DIY version of the “paper-ish webbing” like you have hanging up in that frame behind you! I think you got it from home goods but would love to see a diy version! 😍😍

[@phyllisokwaisie9374]

You can frame the place mate she had for that same look.

[@Sindhuonmyway]

Macenna: pulls out a trash basket Me: is she gonna make a pendant light?

[@bobbietrosper2195]

I thought the same thing! Lol

[@euro_babe]

same

[@jennifersmallmon9322]

I thought the same 😂 I want to make one so bad! They are so cute 😍

[@JessicaPalen]

haha I feel you!

[@stacymaniguet7846]

Me 2

[@Becczor]

Macenna, there is something wrong with your microphone. Whenever you talk there is a small high pitch noise in the background. I can not hear it when the background music plays.

[@graceanajeffrey5266]

Yup

[@sonahaykazun4176]

I hear it too, in the last videos...

[@katymaloney]

Thanks for saying something! I have brand new (cheap Best Buy) speakers and last time, I thought for sure it was my new speakers that were bad... lol

[@lovingmayberry307]

Hmmm, I don't hear it, I wear ear buds.

[@graceanajeffrey5266]

Jude Lewis so did I...

[@supaguh]

Romeo’s commentary throughout your DIYs and your reactions along with cameos from kinsley makes your videos one of my faves lmao

[@ZeefaGonza]

This is awesome. I can imagine people coming into your home and saying “wow, where’d you get this?!” And you can just say “Oh I made it🤷🏻‍♀️” ❤️

[@begwenly]

Her enthusiasm for hand weaving is infectious, i have no desire to hand weave but watching these videos make me want to try lol

[@tiffanytrippeer5401]

The trash can would’ve looked cool as an industrial pendant light or lamp shade too 😉

[@beingmeperfectly4560]

Ohhh yeahhhh 🥰

[@andreah5464]

EXACTLY my thought too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@beehivejournals6446]

Rice paper on the inside will strengthen the glass while still being able to see through it. Looks great as is though!

[@kzfingerprint]

I love that you kept in the thought process throughout! And when gluing down the straw by itself didn't work, you problem solved and found something that did work. :)

[@325LMS]

When i saw the wastebasket I automatically thought you were going to make a pendant light 😂

[@tuanaguler3123]

fun fact: putting the yarn into freezer doesnt kill the bacteria but freeze them they sleep and survive and when the temperature is high again they can continue to live

[@karapeak8176]

I was looking for this exact comment - hopefully MaCenna will notice

[@walking_on_sunshine1611]

but she was talking about insects right? 🤔

[@bd7852]

I think she meant bedbugs.

[@YoruPrivate]

Still really slight sound issues like last video.

[@amara560]

For me the background music is quite a bit louder than her voice. I keep needing to switch volumes.

[@madelonverweij8132]

Happy to see this comment, thought it was on my end but i hear a high squeaky sound, like an old internet connection.

[@user-ts7pm7if2i]

There’s a very high audio frequency that’s been going on, I’m glad I’m not the only one who hears it.

[@UnclejHolio]

So weird I don’t have any of these issues. Wonder what it is 🤨

[@SamanthaConlon37]

I thought it was my new headphones! I'm glad It wasn't just me lol

[@billiesharp4049]

My heart skips a beat every Sunday when your email pops up! 😂 I always know it's gonna be good...whatever you do! So...I love love the yarn wall hanging and I do love your thought process. Lol!! But wait! That wastebacket/plant holder is awesome! Sooo cute! Speaking of sooo cute...Kinsley! She is THE most adorable pup. Can't wait til next time! 🥰🤗

[@amandacurry7807]

Hi, love! You are the BEST. Love this video. Just a heads up, the audio in your past few videos has been a little wonky- specifically when you are talking! Still love it though!

[@amandacurry7807]

16:30 is a good example

[@amara560]

For the jewelry box I think the style of the box and the cane would have worked better together if you sprayed the cane the same colour as the box. But I like the idea. It's really giving the box new life!

[@nicanonymus2491]

Am I the only one who think this decorations with cane or wool is so pretty. But I can’t have it in my appartement because of the dust it collects? My appartement is so minimalistic because I like it superclean. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Velveteenvision]

Nic Anonymus you’re definitely not the only person who thinks cane and wool is pretty, it’s a massive trend in the home decor world right now. Very trendy. :)

[@nyssasfinancialjourney7422]

Goin through your thrift diys giving me all the creative juices flowing... could you please do a dedicated video on how YOU personally disinfect/sanitize what you thrift please? Some items I thrift idk how to disinfect/sanitize and I trust your opinion on what you do

[@KimoCraft]

Love a good thrift store flipped! I think you have such an amazing eye, beautiful results! Thanks for the inspiration❤️

[@syedaiqrahussain]

Superb love it i think every month i watch your this video its my 6th time when i watched it full 😄 the reason to watch it gives alot of ideas from diy to how to gather ideas and think outside of box then from cinemotography to how to create completely perfect vlog with spontaneity. Love you ♥️🇧🇭

[@marybethlongstreth186]

Simple scrunched tissue paper (light color/adds texture) and mod podge on the glass. Keeps the glass from breaking further/falling into the box!

[@KimLong-od2es]

I'm awaiting black macrame cord to make shelving for my bathroom which we are in the process of decorating

[@Glamourous1313]

In love with everything in here! I just realised that i might have watched all ur vids already..🥺 when am i to do now....

[@Xochloegordon]

Macenna this should absolutely be a little series on its own - you often find such cool unique items to flip and I love that, but having ideas for things you are basically guaranteed to find at the thrift store is SO helpful and inspiring!! xoxo

[@nmills87]

That weird sound is back towards the end I think? Love the ideas though!

[@AngelicaMMcDevitt]

I love these diys you do! You’re so creative and talented! 💜

[@azizicuddles9091]

i like all your videos before watching because your channel is just so special

[@debraadkins-brown399]

I think you were born in the wrong decade. Everything you do looks very 70s.

[@I8AFluffyBunny]

Soak your cane!! It makes it pliable. Love your video such a cute idea for the jewelry box.

[@hauntedpumpkin5851]

I love the placemat idea but It would be cool to cut the bottom of the black to make it look like an arrow

[@trexapex00]

I LOVE hearing your thought process and creative process - seriously! I enjoy your videos but in most DIY from my favorite KZbinrs that's the piece that I'm missing, I want to hear how you got to the decision and not just the editorialized steps. Thank you for sharing!

[@meaghannemack82]

Your asthetic is so similar to mine!! You are my boho diy thrift flip spirit animal lol

[@victoriawalker3891]

Hi xo,macenna great video the jewelry box is cute

[@candij3777]

I love how you explain your thought process as you work

[@alasan]

I saw similar placemats at daiso and thought of making your wall hangings in your living room too! You should definitely try making some thrift flips from the random and cute stuff at daiso, especially since almost everything is $1.50! I feel like there’s so many options for your creativity!

[@wania.wajiha]

The Diys are awesome!!! We love to see diy videos 😍❤️

[@FinFinlee]

Girllll your friend didn’t tell you to soak that Cane! 😂 doesn’t matter tho came out because as ALWAYS 💕

[@hgcollecter38]

That trash can was honestly brilliant. Always wanted something like that

[@connievanlandingham7048]

This is AMAZING!!Love your style! Adore your willingness to change, think of other looks as you go!TFS, my friend!⚘

[@jenniferapnt]

Loved the projects! I don’t know if someone mentioned this, but for the broken glass maybe you could use a transparent contact paper, just to make it a little bit safer.

[@traceynomatterwhat383]

@Jennifer M Aponte Rivera that’s a great idea!

[@jenniferapnt]

Tracey No Matter What thank you! hope she see’s it ☺️

[@adventuresofme3853]

Love the macrame plant stand/bottom so much! Gunna keep an eye out for some of that yarn/macrame cord at a good price

[@alyssawilliams1750]

I loved the bo-ho planter holder!!!!!!

[@marisasydney-darville7643]

I really loveeeee the waste basket flip! It looks sooooo good!! I'm gonna recreate that for one of my plants! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@Cathy-pg7qr]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MACENNA!!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE all of these!! The waste basket is on my list FOR SURE. !!!! I wish you lived closer to me so we could do some thrifting together!!! YOURE MY FAVORITE!!

[@amandasmith1296]

i love listening to your thought process! it reminds me of how my mind works when i am trying to make something :) i also love all of your videos, they have been great to binge during quarantine! now, i wait for all your new videos each sunday

[@XOMaCenna]

Thank you so much 🥰

[@Mrs-gg6vw]

I'd buy that big ass fly swatter 😂

[@danikittie]

The basket was hands down my favorite!

[@puffsleeveskindagirl]

Back to your awesome thrift flips! *ps: Missed parts of the audio by muting the background music, sorry it was really irritating to me 😬.

[@BelieberGirl6]

Ugh I just love how creative your flips are!!! I never know what to expect when I watch your vids (and I mean that in the best way possible!) love it!

[@joeq3838]

Heads up: when you have a piece of cane that's been rolled up and you want it to lay flat, boil water on a big pot, hold the cane above the steam (just turn of the stove and place the cane over the pot) for a couple of minutes, and then let it cool for a couple of hours with some heavy books on top of it.

[@WPBarista]

Love hearing your thought process! I get so many ideas! :)

[@susanhonkoski7706]

Ashley, I am obsessed with the plant basket!!! Love all the different textures, you could honestly start a new trend!!! Amazing....🧶🧵✂️ and I just love Kingsley!!!!

[@abcakery]

Really love all of your DIY's 👌 Watching from UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@shellivoichoskie6382]

Oh, great HEAVENS!!!! For all the pandemonium from Covid-19, because of it, I found your DIY KZbin channel. Hallelujah! (Just the channel, not the virus.) I have so much catching up to do! I absolutely love your creativity, the way you put colors together, new skills ideas--including using natural dyes...I just researched and discovered that red cabbage and baking soda make teal dye (whoodathunk? ...so much to learn and do and see, so little time), and your awesome power tools. I have been dreaming of a few power tools for several years now and you have just added another boost in that direction. (Why CAN'T great-grandma have power tools? :) ) I did hear you say something on a video I watched today that disturbed me, however. Please do not EVER think of getting rid of something you love because someone else likes different things. Art isn't right or wrong, it's a choice. And I absolutely LOVE the black and white print you have (the random black brush strokes in the lighter frame...sorry, I was multi-tasking)! I would tell you about my first living room transformation as a newlywed on a very tiny shoestring budget...1971! BUT. Enough time reading this. Please get back to your "Flipping" job so you can post more videos for us! :) P.S. I could NEVER live near your flea markets. Shudder. I would have to move. I find myself gasping when you shop with your camera on (don't get me wrong, I want you to continue) but I am amazed at all the really cool stuff you pass by! How do you do it??? (Actually, it would be the banker insisting I move...into a tent...because I'd be "flat broke!!!") ... For sharing your gift of creativity with us, I thank you. My banker, not so much.

[@katymaloney]

Kind of a weird flex, but never used a dowel in my DIY life.. xD I live in Canada in a woodsy area, I always just pick up branches and use those! Why chop the tree when you just need a branch, right? lol Im SUPER excited though because in a month Im headed to the isolated beaches of northeastern Quebec (not for tourism, family stuff), and Ill be able to stock up on DRIFTWOOD!!!

[@kellybell6442]

Hi, I'm new to your channel & what I'm loving about you is your attention to detail! Everytime I'm thinking something 'isn't quite working' you also say 'this isn't quite working for me' & you go back & try something else...then total nail it!! All of your pieces are STUNNING! Have subscribed. Can't wait to see more 😊👍

[@SeetalMD]

The waste basket and jewellery box were my favourite! im binge wathing macenna now with all her thrift flips. does anyone else have that feeling sometimes of just wanting to watch others do thrift flips?

[@heatherjohnson5612]

You absolutely were made to teach and inspire! I adore all of your videos and you have reignited the creative part of me that had been hidden away for many years because of the 9-5 job life! I love your channel! I can’t even pick a favorite! Besides Kinsley....she’s always my favorite😂😂😍😍🙌🙌🙌thank you so much!!!!

[@foraluckygirl]

The waste basket was genius! I’ve gotta do this

[@alokasiablackmagic3444]

MCCENA!! I HAVE A LIFEHACK FOR YOU. You should put rotang in hot water for 10-15 minutes to make it softer. Than it dries and becomes strong again!

[@herFLYness79]

So cute. 😊 The last idea would make a nice lampshade as well. Of course with the fringe flipped accordingly. Lol

[@latishaduncan4883]

I am so addicted to your videos!! The trash can/planter is absolutely GORGEOUS!! 💥 I have replicated a lot of your ideas for my guest bedroom and bathroom! I LOVE my new rooms! ❤

[@kristin4241]

Uhhh the basket is awesome...well done, I love the light and brighter macrame...I think with the wallhanging instead of the dowel, I would have tried weaving the wool through the holes of the placemat...but hey that's just me ;) and the cane box...just beautiful... :)

[@saraheschweiler4939]

Lovely ideas! What, if anything, did you do with the bottom of the macrame waste basket? Did you use any macrame string on the bottom, or did you just leave the metal frame bare? Thanks for considering my query!🌿🙏🙂🙏🌿

[@gregorycooper7464]

NOW I HAVE TO LOOK CLOSER FOR ONE OF THOSE TRASH BINS. That's cool. Half the fun is the hunt. Thanks again MaCenna. Be well.

[@danielkessler3133]

Love your invention and spirit but the waste bucket was pretty remarkable. I would have kept it's AUTHENTICITY and maybe freshened it with spray paint.

[@colleencannon3382]

What do you call the fringe material when looking in the fabric store. Can you order it on line? Projects today were fun something you make us believe we can do so thank you for that. You show the steps so clearly and I love when you brainstorm the thought process with us. I loved the way the wastebasket turned out, and using it to hold a plant even made it more special. Can't wait till your next DIY'S. Stay safe and give Kinsley a hug for me, l miss being able to do that to my little Buddy. What breed of dog is Kinsley? All of you stay safe, be happy and have a great day! ❤👵🇨🇦

[@metenlg]

I love you thank you for all great ideas I like soooooo much first (box) and last one (plant thing with macrome) "and sorry for my bad english" L♡ve from Turkey , Kocaeli Gebze ^.^

[@100daysmic9]

Hot melt glue doesn't dry. It cools. Crazy glue over the crack. Crazy glue is what Auto Glass places use to prevent small stone chips, or small windshield cracks from splitting the whole window.

[@shannonoconnor3853]

I absolutely love what you did with the wastebasket! Wow! I love your creative process, too! Thank you so much for providing your list of supplies used for the DIY thrift store flips. I love the 4mm Macrame and definitely want to order some!

[@danae1326]

Cute ideas! Here is a tip for you that I discovered not long ago: get yourself some silicone fingertip thimbles for when you're working with hot glue. They're amazing! You can push down your hot glued items without burning yourself. I got them on Amazon, and wish I'd known about them years ago, would have saved myself so many blisters! Happy crafting!

[@sheilavanduynfote5539]

I can’t believe I just got home and I am 4 hours late for your video!!!!!!! I love the box with the cane, placemat was awesome and of course I,love the basket so cool 😎. You can do so much with macrame ❤️❤️❤️ One of a kind

[@dianebateman6808]

That basket is soooo much cuter with the fringe, great job!!!! Loving your thrifting DIY's!!!!!

[@ines8493]

I newly subscribed to your channel and literally watching all of your videos one by one. Love your channel! FYI: more I watch your video, I seriously think that you look and sound like Amanda Bynes like when she was in the “She is the man” movie (is it just me?? Lol)

[@carriebecker1097]

2:18 Is it just me or does it sound like she's saying "Joe"? Obviously I know she knows him and knows his name is Drew and I'm sure that's what she's saying. I'm just wondering if anyone else here's Joe to 😂? I LOVE Drew's channel Lone🦊.

[@sarahcraft7089]

I loove your work..:-) :-) :-)

[@NMags100]

I love the videos where you explain your thought process! But also I was sooo sure you were making another pendant with the wastebasket I was so confused why you put the fringe in that direction lol! But they all turned out great!

[@genevievegeralla8613]

The wastebasket -> planter is definitely my fave! The original wastebasket actually looked good enough but then you always make things better! It turned out an incredibly awesome planter Macenna!!! 😍♥

[@kikit6846]

L🌺VE the wallhanging's ! ! ! I will be trying them. Do you sell them ? If Not, you really Should.TFS.
