  • In today's video I'm taking the old metal case from my last thrift haul video and flipping it into a beautiful end table. I took the advice from a few of my viewers that left comments that I should add legs vs. upcycling it into a vintage looking suitcase. My viewers recommended hair pin legs but I didn't have any on hand or time to pick any up, so I improvised and added legs that I picked out of the garbage and had in my stash. I absolutely love how this project turned out and I want to thank you all for watching and giving me such great suggestions!!

    I’m painting 4 pieces, a tool box, a chair, a bench and a table. All are going to be painted green (kudzu) except a pressbacked chair which will be a pink/aqua combo. All except maybe the bench will have transfers. I have napkins purchased for this purpose (decoupage) but am thinking I’ll go with the transfers. Anxious to start now that my gardens are planted. I may do an antiquing process, not sure. Thanks for the info since I haven’t yet used waxes. Now I know I can’t for these pieces. The two shelf table is basically two half circles with 3 legs which my grandfather made around 100 to 120 years ago. The glue finally gave way so I’m taking the opportunity to paint it. It’s always been painted because he made it out of scrap wood. It’s very crude, but my grandpa was very precious to me so his table is as well. He was 6’5” tall and couldn’t say my name with his heavy German accent so he called me Sissia.

    I never ever thought of turning a case into a table. This is a brilliant and very, very fun idea. Cheers, Ivy.

    This is so pretty. Turned out amazing. 👏 I love that your style is distinctive. Whenever I visit the Goat or Antique Up there are several booths that are similar. But yours always pops. Really enjoyed meeting you at the Barn sale. And I'm glad you showed me the new Whispering Willow transfer pad. It's gorgeous! Love it!! I haven't tried the new DIY cottage paint yet. But it's on my "to do" list. Lol. Looking forward to your upcoming live. 😊

  • @KMF3
    @KMF3 Před 2 lety

    The transfers really do take it to the next level. I'm really wanting to work with these transfers but I'm having a hard time justifying the cost. I doubt that I can even break even with the cost being so high on the transfers

    The only thing that I can think of as far as a carry case like this one that would be lined with cedar, would be to store cigars. I do know that cigars are often stored in Aluminum or Metal boxes that are lined with cedar 🤷‍♀️

    @lorreprentiss3604 Před 2 lety

    I have a request. I know you work with DIY products. But can you show how all the paints, are they chalk paints? Where do they make the paints? The IOU's can you show all of them? Your brushes? Maybe a special show to describe everything you use. I would like to know more. Thank you fr your great inspiration and talent.

    Your little metal case is a faraday case. Look them up if you don’t know what that is. You can convert your case into a Faraday case very easily and STILL USE IT AS A NIGHTSTAND!

  • @benniececiliamattox7426

    I love the red peeking out through the blue! I don't know how I missed this video because I love all your makeovers and I have accumulated several suitcases I need to transform into something for my booth. I'm curious, since it's been 2 months since you put this suitcase in your booth, has it sold? I didn't see it when you re-worked your booth in the video.

  • @brendaneel9905
    @brendaneel9905 Před 2 lety

    Hi there, got a question after you put your transfer on the metal box, do you put a sealer over the transfers or after you apply then you just leave them? Thank you ❤️

  • @KMF3
    @KMF3 Před 2 lety +1

    What did you price the table at? I'm curious. Because you put a lot of products and time into that table I would imagine you'd have to charge at least $100

  • @gail501
    @gail501 Před 2 lety

    Do you need to use a sealer over the transfer?
