You have a beautiful home and patio -- it isn't just the lovely view -- it is your enthusiasm, appreciation, and gratitude for what you have that is absolutely infectious! Brilliant.
I’m so happy that I found your channel. I really enjoy all of your content. Your sweetness, humor and positive attitude is so refreshing. I have a hard time spending money and I love to buy things on sale, used, thrifted and so on like you. I usually just go without unless I come across something to improve my home but you have given me the inspiration to really look at my home and property and make improvements with what I already have. You have a beautiful home, property, family and pets. I look forward to each new video!
Thanks so much for such a lovely comment I so appreciate it! ☺️🌸💕🍀 And I know exactly what you mean, if I have to buy something full price it makes me anxious, even things we need like paint or tools. I tend to do everything I can think of with the supplies I already have and then buy whatever else is needed, I feel better knowing I did everything I could before spending money. Home maintenance can sometimes be expensive though no matter how thrifty we are 🤷♀️ I’m happy I could supply some motivation, happy crafting for you, take care ☺️💕🍀🌸
Watching your videos is an absolute joy, I enjoy your humour and the creativity you put into producing a beautiful home for your family. You definitely have a talent for finding affordable ways to make your patio beautiful and comfortable. Love the lounger. 😊
Thanks so much Teresa! 💕 I try my best and I’m glad other people enjoy seeing it come together, the lounger was the highlight of the summer that’s for sure! ☺️🍀🌸💕
It looks fantastic Melissa 👏 And what a score with the charity plant shop, will definitely have to check that out so thanks for sharing where it is. I would never think you were bragging about anything in your videos, it's obvious that you are happy and appreciative of what you have, and just right, the view and your home are beautiful. Xx ❤
Thank you Lynsey! ☺️💕 I had gotten some odd comments on one of my videos recently and it just made me a bit worried if I was offending any one but I’m glad that’s not the case. There’s actually 2 hope and a future charity shops in Antrim, 1 is inside the mall it’s good too but all furniture and some clothes and the plant shop one is further up the road right next to a petrol station, if you blink you miss it lol it has plants, furniture, bikes but no clothes ☺️🌸🍀💕 take care Lynsey
Love the bedsheet haha. The lounger is awesome you have an amazing charity shop. I laughed when your pupper sauntered through the shot 😂. Its looking fab
Wow! Such a beautiful transformation! The lounger was a steal with the cushion included!! I loved the reuse of the older items as well. I’ve used an old bean pot, metal tea kettle, and metal buckets. I have my old mailbox that I intend to attach to my garage and put flowers in it next year!! Almost anything can be used as a planter, including an old farm grain scoop!!
Trust me when I say that your subscribers would never think of you wasting money. Your videos taught me to always check the clearance or bargain sections when buying plants. You can find some really good plants in need of tender care. You’re dream garden is coming along beautifully. It may take a year or two, but it’s going to be amazing. I’ll be here following along. Best wishes from Massachusetts, USA🫶🏼💐🪴
This turned out so well! You should be proud of yourself and your family for such a beautiful transformation. And I would never think you were bragging. You were sharing.
I’m so in love with this video and your attitude! I’m glad I found your channel :) you are a breath of fresh air amongst all the influencers on RU-vid. Keep being you :) and I hope RU-vid keeps giving you more and more coin to continue treating yourself. You are humble and proud, and I don’t think you are bragging at all. I can see the gratefulness in your expression.
Thank you so much that’s so kind of you to say! At first I really didn’t know if anyone would want to watch low budget and slow pace projects so I’m really happy that people are enjoying it. Very surprised RU-vid paid me but super grateful, my garden is especially grateful 😅 Thanks so much for the support ☺️💕🌸🍀
For the gas canisters, have you thought about getting an old wooden wardrobe and removing the bottom or part of the bottom? Attach it to the wall for safety, obviously! You could then add plants on it and decorate it!
As every gardener knows it take time to create a beautiful garden, which grows with you. If you can learn how to take cuttings and grow them on you will find your stock of plants will increase dramatically. Loved the little pot village - I have something similar in a pot which has some Birch tree seedlings growing in it - and there is now a little fairy colony sitting around the "trunks" in the pot. I was thinking that if you moved your arch seat in front of the calor gas cannisters it would help to hide them a bit more especially if you could tie a piece of old canvas or sailcloth to the back of the seat [ look on freecycle for some, and other bargains too. I have an old cane table which I painted with black gloss paint [ to match my garden seats] and it has been out in the garden for about ten years now [in Scotland near Glasgow - so lots of rain too but I have repainted it a couple of times . Your garden is coming along tremendously, and you SHOULD be proud of your hard work and thrifty nature.💚
Thank you very much! It definitely is a slow burn when gardening, I’m excited to see how it will look in a couple of years 🤩 I am definitely learning about cuttings and propagation now, that will make budgeting a lot easier next year that’s for sure! ☺️🍀🌸💕
Looks amazing, everyone can see your projects are a labor of love. You thrift, recycle and put in the hard work and time. Sincerely happy that your videos and time editing has paid off and that RU-vid gave you the opportunity to reinvest that money into your garden and more importantly your channel. ❤🎉❤🎉❤
Thank you so much I really appreciate that. I am happy my intentions are being seen in my videos. I was very surprised RU-vid monetised my videos but super grateful 🙏 ☺️🍀💕🌸
Well done. I really enjoyed watching this video. I agree you don't need lots of money to make a space nice and welcoming. I also manifest a lot of what i want too. Congratulations!
What comes across in all your videos and especially this one is that, if everyone (including me) was as strongly dedicated to their realistic budget and instead invested their energy in finding and learning where the good deals are and committing to restraint while still manifesting a gorgeous home, gifts and decorations to fill your home and quality time with family, the world would be a much better place. You earned your temporary larger budget and I hope you fully enjoyed your reward until it comes around again and then hopefully more frequently. I could only imagine how that would continue to improve not only your personal life but your community as well.
Aw thank you Kathy that’s lovely of you to say! Im happy that message is coming across in my video’s. Sharing my progress with everyone here as definitely made the budgeting and mundane jobs a lot more fun 😅 Very surprised RU-vid paid me but grateful for the garden luxuries it brought about ☺️🍀💕🌸
