Welcome back to another episode of Project Profit! This is the series where Rachael finds free or low cost second hand items with the goal of trying to flip them for some cash. All profits made from the series are donated to various charitable causes!
We’ve made a couple different lampshades and light DIYs in the past, and have been seeing yarn wrapped lampshades on Pinterest that sell for a lot of money, so it's time to give it a Project Profit try! Second, Rachael found some beautiful vintage clay tiles and has some coffee table diy ideas up her sleeve!

Just as a note- sometimes yarn from secondhand places could have moths (even if the yarn doesn’t seem to have them) so you should put the yarn in a freezer overnight to kill any

@sixinchzipper 5 месяцев назад

Smart tip!!

@norahd4634 5 месяцев назад

Something I've done before is I put the yarn in the oven at 200°F for about 30 minutes, but take off the paper sleeve first. Also just a note - moths are more inclined to lay eggs in animal fibers like wool or alpaca (not as likely to choose acrylic) since the larvae will eat the yarn when they hatch. I still heat acrylic since it may have been kept with animal fibers and better safe than sorry!

@BeppyCat 5 месяцев назад

Great tip for most things from thrift stores

@KatArnoldi 5 месяцев назад

Same goes for bed bugs. But for these leave the stuff for a week in the freezer

@pinemartin6604 5 месяцев назад

Unfortunately if you don't have a chest freezer it can't really get cold enough for this to work, and either way it's at least 1 to 2 weeks. It needs to be - 20-25c for 1 week+ or - 18c for 2 weeks. In that time you can't be opening the freezer regularly. It's not workable for me so I use heat and/or vinegar. Wash yarn and textiles at 60c+ or steam it with an iron/clothes steamer, or soak in boiling water and cover. If I'm just steaming I use vinegar as well in case I don't get an area up to temperature. Store unused yarn in something airtight to prevent more moths.

As an Etsy seller, I really appreciate what you’ve said in this video - when someone says to me ‘I could make it cheaper’, I just smile and say that I wish them luck and hope they have fun, I am committed to not devaluing my work or the work of others. Just because I can’t afford it, doesn’t mean it’s too expensive, it just means it’s out of my budget. I have a lot of yarn in my house so I’m now very tempted to try that lampshade!! It looks awesome.

@lfox_930 5 месяцев назад

Some ppl just have that mind set that they can make it themselves for cheaper I don't think it's ment to be an insult to the artist in anyway they're just crafty and like to make things...then again if they're saying it to you on etsy because they feel upset about the price then yeah that is insulting

@leahr.2620 5 месяцев назад

I agree, what one person thinks is too much may not be too much for someone else, its worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

@lurleanhunt9335 5 месяцев назад

Make another table with the shelf of the old table!

@beckycollier-burgess1568 5 месяцев назад

100%, especially as there was so much interest.

@jemma50 5 месяцев назад

Exactly what I was thinking! Only with just 4 legs, as it was smaller. :)

@abbeyv4148 5 месяцев назад

Agree!

@robynw6307 5 месяцев назад

Exactly what I was going to say. Cheers.

@carmengrauwels 5 месяцев назад

Yes absolutely but not the exact same, adjust the size, design, ..a bit ( smaller, higher, more curved,...) And yes you could have asked 60, 70$ more & it would have sold just as fast. The ceiling chandelier is just bit overpriced by 40, 50$ I know these prices bc on a weekly basis I'm a lot on the internet scrolling & looking at similar items (on Belgian sites & intire Europ sometimes even the States) From particulier to professional sellers That's the only reason I say that about the price otherwise I would have shut my mouth 😊 🤘🏻❄️

@amyweaver7413 5 месяцев назад

That light fixture is stunning. I’m glad you are waiting for a reasonable offer. Love this series! 👏❤️👏

@BenjamintheTortoise 5 месяцев назад

Agree!! ✨💖

@paulag1109 5 месяцев назад

I would pay $250 for the pendant light because it took you over eight hours to complete. Plus it was so well done. This is one of my favourite series. ❤

@AmPlant 5 месяцев назад

When she placed the two stripped lamp shades on top of each other, I said out loud to my computer "oh my gosh I love it already!". I think I'm gonna be making a shade like that...as soon as I have a lamp to put it on. Nicely done! :D

@justinabean94 5 месяцев назад

I think making another table but putting the clay tiles in the center to make a pedestal base would be kind of sick. Maybe a smaller coffee table or a pair of end tables like that. People really seem to like pedestal furniture right now. I also think them stacked organically on their sides could be cool as sculptural legs for tables or chairs or media consoles. Everything looked great. You smashed these !

@Clovergirl7934 5 месяцев назад

A cool designed wine rack would be kinda interesting with those clay columns! But that table was absolutely stunning! Great vision.

@runsoffsarcasmcoffee8303 5 месяцев назад

absolutely make another table! Or maybe a bookcase with those clay tubes, they are awesome! And I LOVE that lamp! If I was in Canada I would snap it up!! (And honestly, I am a bit surprised Becky hasn't tried to for her house, it would so match her aesthetic!!)

@emilyhennessey8294 5 месяцев назад

Table, lamp, vase? Those were so cool.

@yannanydeira 5 месяцев назад

That lamp shade is so crazy good!!!!! Omg the way the colors blend is perfection!!!

@doublescorpions 5 месяцев назад

Bravo Rachel on Project Profit and all that you've been able to donate! Both projects this week are stunning! Yes, make another table considering all the interest on the first one. S.

@MS-zj2mf 5 месяцев назад

I would love to see you do some stooping to source stuff for this series

@JRR0013 5 месяцев назад

Wow! Really amazed that no one bought that lampshade! It's so mid-century modern and Scandinavian-looking.

@carlyriley4144 5 месяцев назад

I love Rachel!❤

@lindakirste4540 5 месяцев назад

I just made the gnome ornaments to put on my christmas presents for my family ❤

@AliceJaimie 5 месяцев назад

This made me have flashbacks to my pom pom wreath, same vibes with the stringing the lights forever and ever! The lampshade is gorgeous though, totally worth it in my opinion!

@pamelaletendre8520 5 месяцев назад

I have 6 of those clay weeping tiles in my living room. I am growing bell peppers in them right now. My dad pulled them out of the ground when we renovated my childhood home. I keep them as nostalgia and well they make amazing pots for plants! This table though....What a cool way to use old weeping tile.

@natashapk6905 5 месяцев назад

Projects keep getting better + better. Clay table, side table? Group 3 together to create a column lile base 🤓

@saragoose 5 месяцев назад

Ooh the pendant diy! I have a lamp shade that's sort of like that style, but it's a tall skinny one and I'd really like it to be a wider/shorter one to be over my couch.

@emilyjane2298 5 месяцев назад

I’m so glad you left the table top as is! It’s so beautiful!😍

@maryanng8241 5 месяцев назад

This brings back memories. I made this type of lamp in the 80’s. The shape was less streamlined and included macrame knotting.

@queencityminis 5 месяцев назад

I love that you didn't accept a lowball offer for the light fixture. It's definitely worth waiting for the right buyer.

@hayleyperrault3509 5 месяцев назад

Beautiful! Your art hanging tip is right on because the rule of thumb I use and recommend (as a professional interior designer) is 60” to the center of the piece. And if you’re 5’-7” then your eye level is just about at 60!

@crystalcharee57 5 месяцев назад

That lampshade is legit. Good on you for holding out. If they want it cheaper, they can make it themselves.

@missteaaa 5 месяцев назад

I feel like you should finish the underside of the table as well. It's absolutely beautiful and then a person may lay on the ground and see the unfinished underside

@_scottysews 5 месяцев назад

I was thinking the same thing! I was hoping that it would get painted a contrasting colour but keep the grain on the top surface - although that might not sound appealing to everyone 😅

@Chechixx 5 месяцев назад

Fave series on this channel!!❤

@ciara5108 5 месяцев назад

I made a plantstand/coffee table, and I used a Lazy susan to get the round look I wanted!

@majorfifthmusic 5 месяцев назад

This has quickly become my favorite series!!!

@cranberri100 5 месяцев назад

This lamp is BEAUTIFUL! I saw this on Facebook marketplace before this video went out, and it made me stop scrolling (even though I wasn’t looking for a lamp 😂). Your talent always amazes me!! 👏 👏 👏

@studio_sam 5 месяцев назад

My parents used to have the same clay weeping tiles and used them for wine too!

@sarahwhiting325 5 месяцев назад

I agree with you re handmade stuff …if you want it and you can’t make it yourself appreciate the work and time and pay up Lol! 😂 ps I tried your wire wool vinegar technique to age some wood on a vintage workbench I was restoring on and WOW it worked a treat!! I love it so much I’ve kept it!! ❤👏

@kennabrienn4437 5 месяцев назад

On the off chance Rachel sees this, David's Teas has mugs shaped just like your favorite one and if I'm remembering right they have a double insulated clear one similar to the other one in the video😏

@kennabrienn4437 5 месяцев назад

I checked, they do, it's the double walled glass Nordic mug if your interested:)

@ericaromeo6210 5 месяцев назад

I'm so jealous because I never would have thought of using those clay pipes that way. And it's not like I can go searching for them in my own hometown because yours was such a find. But now that I've seen it on a table I can't help but think what a classy upgrade to the classic 2x4 and cinder blocks bookcase. If you used those pipes to be the standing legs of bookshelves they would become a display feature.

@MattieDianeMunson 5 месяцев назад

I luv the string pendant light ! & honestly although I also luv the table, I probably cannot afford either hold fast to your price as long as you are donating to good causes all your hard work & brilliant ideas are awesome oh & luv your mug!!!💜

@susannem6192 5 месяцев назад

Love, love, love this series!

@RoxaneJ14 5 месяцев назад

Use the table shelf and more clay tiles for an other table but do like a white wash on them. It could be in funky colours too, like Klein blue, hot pink, bright yellow... If you put a smaller pipe inside of them you could even stack them for side table height !

@magilicious14 5 месяцев назад

Pendant lights seem to be a lot harder to sell in general. My guess is that it's a combination of needing specific space and electrical to be able to install the thing and also just the task of instillation itself or having to call an electrician. This becomes even more true for those of us that live in rental spaces

@evicaf4e 5 месяцев назад

Omg Im the same, I only prefer thin (porcelain, thin glass like) cups. They make my coffee taste so much better.

@coolmomASMR 5 месяцев назад

Can I just say that every Sorry Girl that has been added to the "flock" are so lovely. I love Rachel and Rochelle. They are fun to watch and just as endearing as Becky & Kelsey. Way to go ladies! I love the bunch of you!

@diyshiitake6733 5 месяцев назад

I made a lamp shade around 3 years ago but with some type of thick bamboo string and I think it wound up taking me around 8 hours total too and I almost wanted to give up. But I didn’t. And I still absolutely love it! I’ve been wanting to make another one and post it but haven’t lol. But I will one day! This inspired me!

@leslieschmitt7749 5 месяцев назад

I love both projects … great job and thank your for donating to worthy causes! ❤

@iabelanger 5 месяцев назад

Both projects are completely amazing. You could definitely become a designer🎉❤

@susiedial1754 5 месяцев назад

@MadAboutBrows 5 месяцев назад

I admit: I didn't think I'd like the lamp as much as I do 😍 great work!!

@pamelaletendre8520 5 месяцев назад

Make more tables if the seller still has them! Love that the profit goes to charity!

@maisa7682 5 месяцев назад

The lampshade is gorgeous 😍 Rachel is so creative 🥰

@anagoncalves9723 5 месяцев назад

love the lamp shade AWESOME and the table chefs kiss!🙄😲💋💋.

@HodoA 5 месяцев назад

Pendant is gorgeous! And in terms of those clay pipes, I would have done a low open bookshelf--I think that would look so cool styled with beautiful drooping plants, books, and interesting objects. Great work as always, Rachael!

@sallyhook102 5 месяцев назад

Really loved the light shade & the coffee table was beautiful.

@TheOneWifNoUsername 5 месяцев назад

I would have bought as many of those clay tiles as possible and stashed them wherever I could. I would use the HELL out of those making end tables and coffee tables and little standees for beside a bed or a bathtub or whatnot. I have this idea for these large pink marble tiles I thrifted. My dad and I will be building these ideas next year. The plan is three end tables kinda mismatches set. We shall see what happens. But a general plan is there and we plan to make them look LUX LUX LUX. With his skills and our combined ideas. I have no doubt about it. I’m unable to work any sort of traditional jobs so crafting/creating stuff like this is all I can do to make any income if any at all. Here’s to next year’s ideas!

@renesteinhauser2742 5 месяцев назад

That pendant is beautiful. I would love that in my home.

@ERYN__ 5 месяцев назад

I absolutely agree with giving the Etsy seller what they ask for. I just bought wallpaper for a PAX wardrobe for a nursery, so as a renter, I can give my baby a mural that can move with us and change as we grow. I got way too much wallpaper for the interior from Wayfare because I originally planned on doing the sides as well and then ordered an extra roll just in case (painterly birch trees) about $250. Ordered a mural wallpaper from an Etsy seller. They even printed it to size! About $400 (a painted forest scene). It's sophisticated looking, so again it's decore that can grow and move with us.

@deborahthatsme 5 месяцев назад

That lamp shade is stunning and at asking price of $250 that’s only $31.25 per hour for your time to make it and that doesn’t include yarb and the shade frame - so I think it’s priced great - it is Christmas time and premise may be hard to part with time time of year!

@sweetganymede 5 месяцев назад

Wow the lamp! I have been eyeing up lamps in this style for a while now - didn't think to make my own!

@theresagarza1578 5 месяцев назад

Y'all are so creative & inspiring. If I had money & owned a house, I'd hire y'all to come build things for me & make my house look good!

@Kathryn_60 5 месяцев назад

Congratulations Rachel, this series is wonderful. I love the lamp and table. You could definitely make another table since that sold so quickly. Loving your cheerfulness and thoughtfulness.

@SLorraineE 5 месяцев назад

I fully understand about the coffee mug. My mom gave me a china mug when she was clearing out her mug collection and the rim is so much thinner than the other stonewear and glass mugs I already had. It definitely makes it easier to drink from since the rim is easier to get a good seal on with my lips - way fewer dribbles when im trying to multitask

@katiemay8192 5 месяцев назад

Loooove this series. Its been so helpful for some of my upcycling projects. Love Rachael and Rochelle on this channel such a good decision

@caitlynrobinson9745 5 месяцев назад

@adress13 5 месяцев назад

Literally one of your best DIY's Rachel. That lamp and the santa ornaments are my fave so far. And the no stain was a perfect choice for the table.

@rebeccabrook8804 5 месяцев назад

That light fixture is stunning. May have to give it a go, but not sure if I have the patience!

@heatherflynn8725 5 месяцев назад

I love the way the light turned out! And as someone who makes earrings, thank you for saying what you did.

@missuma6822 5 месяцев назад

If you were able to make this amazing lampshade, then you can do anything, there are no longer any barriers for you☺ A few days ago I finished my lamp project, it was much more difficult than it seemed when I saw this in a picture. But your lampshade is a million times more difficult, bravo!!!

I think those clay tiles were used for sewer drain piping years ago. I just replaced mine from a 1949 home and that is what my sewer drain pipe was made out of along with cast iron pipe.
