My husband just came back from a deployment and I just wanted to say that your videos helped me through it. I don't have any family near by and your videos made me feel like I had a friend to hang out with so thank you for being authentic and making all of us feel like your friend.

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

Wow thank you so much I am glad he is home safe. I know exactly how that is. When my husband was in Afghanistan I was stationed away from family and it was really hard and lonely. I hope you guys have a super fun spring and summer catching up!

As a vet, wife to a vet (23+ yrs active) & mother as well to a vet, (all of us out now), I KNOW what you go through & want to say sweetie, you ARE NOT alone! You all are covered in prayers daily even by those you may not know. Please tell your husband, thank you for carrying the baton, thank him for his service... But also, thank YOU for being his spouse & major support team. It takes exceptionally strong spouses to be married to the military & other such 1st responders. Without a good support system we vets couldn't be as effective as could be. It truly does take team work both at work & at home. You serve just as much as we do, if not more, so THANK YOU! 💝🙏 always.

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much! I think that since we are both Marines we really understand each other and have the same type of work ethic. We are a "no excuses" family. Hard work pays off and we tell our kids all the time that "can't" is a bad word, and that we can do anything we set our minds to. It does take a lot of strength, but it is always worth it.

Love how you wove the floral details rather than just create a center floral arrangement. Good economical use of florals

I loved the tray after you and your daughter polished it

@karenhubler2792 2 месяца назад

I am so sorry you painted it.The cleaning of this tray was awesome. I cleaned over 1,000 rings that my mother and I bought at an estate sale, I like your daughter found it so enjoyable. I am so sad that you could not see the imperfection as part of the tray's history and the life cycle it has gone through. To me the polish with the damage was BEAUTIFUL. It's your project, not mine

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

If it were for me to keep I would feel that way as well. Since I was not keeping it, it would take forever to sell with those imperfections or not sell at all. At the end of the day I have to do what's best for the piece to find its new home.

@denisebiddick8877 2 месяца назад

My daughter also liked cleaning trays. I used black chalkpaint it could used for seasonal signs with white chalk. Like happy birthday etc

@treshamassey804 2 месяца назад

I would have bought it polished or not. But, never would I buy silver painted. I think that was trending a few years ago. To each his own preference, but not mine.

I rec'vd the set of Disney books as a child @ Christmas. It was actually a Boxed Set & there is a 4th book to complete your set called "Stories From Other Lands" . It has the same deep green cover with a bright yellow spine and bag pipes as a symbol. The Box itself is the same deep green with a label.

@charlotted6247 2 месяца назад

I appreciate that you price your items affordably. It's best to move items quickly and not hold onto them a long time. I saw a lady on RU-vid refinishing set of candleholders. She painted and waxed them. Later I saw them on Mercari for 125.00. I'd say she may still have them. Always love your projects.

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

Holy moly! Yes I'd rather my items move quickly too.

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much Leslie. Editing is the worst part of doing youtube haha. I appreciate you noticing that. Also all my clothes I get second hand on thredup. I put a referral link in the description box. It might give you a discount but honestly they always have really good discount codes on their home page when you go on their website anyway. I'm not sponsored I just really like to get my clothes there because I know which clothing brands fit me well like American eagle high rise jeans but I can't afford them new haha. And the shirts I buy are usually like 5 or 6 bucks. I just set the sizd and colors I want and then change it to show me prices low to high and buy the cheap stuff. It's name brand stuff

Your book of animals, I buy older books with black and neutral backgrounds, cut the photos out, and add soft highlights of watered down paint (sparingly) to add just a blush of color and frame them. Takes minimal paint.

Books !! I had to store all of my books at my brothers, just got them back, today.. 10 boxes with 6 to go.. I am so excited to have them back.. I do so much, with them.. risers, backdrops etc. I always read to my children.. just got through reading a book to my 52 yr old daughter. It usually starts with me laughing out loud and being asked, what’s so funny? Next thing you know, we’re a chapter in and she’s hooked 😉My daughter lives two doors down, and will come over before bedtime for our story time.. I love it ❤️

@gatheringmoss5726 2 месяца назад

It's wonderful that you encouraged your daughter's enthusiasm. You could tell by the way she attacked the tray with that polish. that she was excited to transform it. LOL I have collected tarnished silver trays and platters for about 40 years. They go in and out of style, but not for me. I use them all over my house and give them a light polish sometimes, but always try to keep the patina intact as much as possible. So, you can guess where I'm headed here... I wanted you to keep it tarnished, but then I saw what you did to it, and WOW! I think you really upped the chic factor. I love the paint and I didn't think I would. I wonder how it might look if you did a coat of antiquing wax to bring out the carved details.

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

I'm so glad you liked it. Great idea

@DonnaFrye-ye4kb 20 дней назад

My mom has so many paper back books with ideas for painting your own projects but they are all out of print so I'm anticipating using the black & white prints as well as the colored examples for multiple projects

@janelaw8486 Месяц назад

Good job on the lamp & I think the crisp new shade & its style is pretty for the lamp. I don't care for that finish on the brackets, plain white would be prettier to display a lovely plate or vase , etc. on, or a burnished wood look would be very versatily as well. I like the planter, bird & vine table candle holders r very cute. The pics with Frames turned out nicely as well, love the gold flecked vase with the boxwood ball is really cute! Good ideas!

@cindyhester9823 2 месяца назад

My advise… I’ve been thinking about this on pretty much every video. I truly hope with all the great books on things that you find, you are keeping back the best (or special) ones for yourself. Even when your kids outgrow them because when they have kids of their own, they will love that you kept that. My grands love the things that I kept from my kids (their parents,lol) and they also have toys that my mama kept that were mine!! Tell me they didn’t make toys that could stand the test of time!! Lol… Toy, books, ornaments anything that would have made a memory. You won’t regret it!! Even if you’re tempted to throw them out because you have moved or wagged that tote a million times and it’s in your way….the moment you see your grand babies playing with them, this flood of wonderful memories come flooding back and your heart is filled and overflowing…❤❤❤

@DesertDIY 2 месяца назад

That's wonderful advice

@cherylstrader1538 2 месяца назад

I'm almost all the way through watching this video. When you brought the books out, especially the one with the $1.99 Goodwill sticker, I could just imagine an older lady in an upscale neighborhood of Houston calling a colleague and saying, "Helen, there's a girl on RU-vid going through our free bins and pulling out very valuable stuff. She pulled out a silver tray, for cryin' out loud. Yes, a 92 mark silver tray. Who is going through our stores and saying "OK" to this stuff? We're losing money HELEN!"

I have a few silver-plated items. Always polish plate less frequently than sterling, because ultimately the plating will wear off from polishing. Also try simmering with baking soda in an aluminum pan, or with aluminum foil in a regular pot. No scrubbing!
