I found Your channel about a month ago and I absolutely love your style ❤
I’m flying into Spokane on June 20th and will for sure be stopping by your store on our way to Newman Lake. I’m very excited about that 😀
I LOVED everything you did in this video ❤❤
Awe, thank you so much!! And that sounds great!! See you then! :)
Rachel, just wondering, what did your hubby say when he saw what a gorgeous piece that little footstool turned into? Lol. It’s adorable! I love the botanical pictures, too. All your projects are lovely. Thanks for sharing
He thinks it is really cute. Of course he didn't get as excited about it as I would have liked, but that is usually the case, haha. Thank you! And thanks for watching!! :)
Like the stool.
Thank you - I'm glad you liked it!! :)
new to your channel ..love your idea's the footstool is amazing!! love the pictures also!!
Thanks so much! 😊 And welcome!!
All of the projects are my favorite! The seed box turned out wonderful, the picture frames are fantastic and the footstool is absolutely stunning. (ok, I lied, the footstool is my favorite). Was so glad to see that you left the original stuff in the stool. Have seen horsehair in furniture before but to my untrained eye, that didn't look like it. Maybe the age and the fact that it was a footstool changed the color and texture of the horsehair. I was thinking fine straw or a grass of some type. Either way that little baby needs to come to Yakima. 😁
Another great video Rachel. You have quite a talent. Question on the big top for deco podge,
it appears to go on a project very smoothly, do you have any issues with wrinkles or bubbles? May have to try that next. Have a relaxing weekend.
Lol . . . I'm glad you liked my projects - and the footstool is definitely an interesting little piece! I think you're probably right about the straw or grass or something to that effect - it was so hard to tell because of how old it was! And I use the liquid patina to decoupage (not the Big Top, although it would probably work, lol) - and I find that (for me anyway) wrinkling has a lot to do with the quality of the paper you use. I usually use pretty thick papers, so wrinkling isn't as much of an issue. When I use thin or flimsy stuff (like napkins) I usually do end up with some. I like the way the liquid patina goes on - it is smooth and a great consistency for decoupage, but I think sometimes wrinkles are just inevitable, and you have to consign yourself to roll with it . . . . :)
Nice job!!😊
Thank you!! :)
Nice work blessings
Thank you! And you too!! :)
@@theeclecticcottagespokane your welcome 🤗
Foot stool
Mine too! Thank you!
Why didn’t you replace the stuffing on the stool?
I kept it because that is a big part of what makes it unique. It is an ode to its age, and a talking point for whoever purchases it. :)
The Foot Stool came out Beautiful, if you Like Green, I HATE the Color Greens,, I Love the Blues, But I must be out of Style because So many people Love green, I am 65; so I just Love Pink and Blues, but almost every you tuber is doing Greens,
Well, I am glad that you think it is beautiful even if it's green. :) I never was a huge fan of green either, but I like to step outside of my box once in a while, and it has grown on me a bit. Thanks so much for watching!
