I just crack up when you go like, "$4.00... or $6.00 is it worth it?" And I'm looking at the thing thinking, "uh, nooooo." And then you paint or simply style it and I am in complete awe. The salt and pepper shakers on sticks looked so ridiculous when you asked if they were worth $6.00, but hanging with your cutting boards I can see they are the coolest thing ever! You are such an inspiration. I'm loving this video.
I think people buy more when they have a visual of how it all goes together/staging. OMG $2 coffee bags!! Would have bought them all
Would love to see how you STORE-ORGANIZE all your DIY supplies, paints, stems, etc….
You have made some fantastic projects. Your husband is hilarious with a brilliant sense of humour! You are a great couple 😍
The sea glass paint on the candy dish looks so beautiful. You seem to really enjoy crafting, and to pull amazing ideas out of a very creative imagination.
I love your projects. Even if something isn't my thing, I always enjoy watching the process.
Another wall art is gluing texture wall paper &then paint it whether framed or not
I believe your cute little table is also meant to slide under the front of the couch/sofa as a tray table :)
The little stand table looks great in your room just as it is!! I love the style!!
I think the scoop was a fire place scoop. You use it to scoop out the ashes. I loved it as a mail container.
The pup makes the chair even precious. He's adorable
LOVE the dark stain! What a cute cabinet that you can actually hide things in!
You could have had a peice of glass cut to cover protect the fabric
on your tray! 😊
I love your content! FYI, try using a hair dryer on the price stickers, it works wonders to peel them right off with no left over residue.
Simply amazing I love the way your mind thinks. I've been watching your videos for 3 hours now oh, now I think I am addicted. If you had a TV show I would watch it every single day. Thank you so much for the ideas you have.
Keep the dark stain on the side table I love the items you found too! Oh Wow I love the pretty plates you made a tiered tray that was beautiful ,I like how you shop your house first ! That’s me too ! great ideas and inspirations 😃
I'm obsessed with these videos! Working at a Thrift Store makes it even more interesting for sure!!
@@lizfenwickdiy, I got a weird message on one of my comments. You may have been compromised again, Ms. Liz.
Im cracking up when your hubby was suggesting how to use his thrift store findings!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
I absolutely loved the beads you removed on diy #30. I personally thought it gave it more character and looked high end. Overall you do great work
I cannot tell you how much I love your ideas. It's taken my crafting to a whole other level. Especially love the thrifting videos. 🥰🥰🥰
I think I wouldn't have been able to resist using that white and yellow fabric to make some sort of summer shawl or cardigan! It seems so summery and cheery and makes me want to frolic in a field of daisies!
It would have really popped if you'd added a little bit of gold and black to the abstract wall art to match the frame a bit. But all in all, it's cute. I think that I am going to try it. Thanks for the idea.
I have one tip, if you are going to buy glassware, don’t buy flimsy stuff. Pop it through the dishwasher ( if not a very hot wash) so you know if it’s got any “invisible” cracks or damage. THEN make stuff with it.
So true, bought a glass jar from dollar tree before and when i put hot water in it, it literally exploded/shattered EVERYWHERE. It was actually a frightening experience. I learnt my lesson then and there.
I am obsessed with these DIY's. Yours are the best. They don't look cheap.
I have not seen a clock like this. It's interesting that you cleaned the galvanized "scoop" but the stickers were still on it.
Hmm. Apparently you can do a lot with a coat of paint. I'm already sewing and crocheting projects for around the house.
I am so impressed ❤. Good job. You’ve inspired me to do this myself. Thank you for posting this. ❤️❤️❤️
WOOOOOOW. I LOVE ❤️ THIS VIDEO. A BIG THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT IDEAS
The 2 “picture frames” you bought with the lampshade are actually stretchers for canvases
Dough Bench Scraper?
I would have never thought to have used that for Measuring or Marking! WOW! THANX!
Liz, I love your stuff! You always have the cutest ideas. 1 complaint though, please finish the back...that shawl picture was cute, but just a little more butcher paper on the back would have finished it. But the cutting board tray, if that is used as a tray, the back will be seen...it should have been treated the same as the front...
And the wood should have been waxed, oil rubbed, something...left porous like that, anything that spills on it is going to get soaked right up!
omgoodness your hubby is adorable! I think he did good, I like that lamp shade or candle holder! You could probably put a little tea light holder and tea light in it and just set it on a table. You're awesome at diys...he has total confidence in you making something great!!
You are so talented! I love watching your videos especially observing how your mind works. You ccome up with incredible ideas that wouldn't even occur to most people. Thank you for sharing all your wonderful ideas with us. 😊
Clamping the straight edge timber board you used to make the pencil line at each end, makes a great guide for your circular saw. No pencil line required and a super quick straight saw cut..
That cutting board turned into a tray is beautiful
Liz I am very upset that you don't give proper credit to your inspection manager--your doggy is so cute as he was checking things out and posing!!
I love the fabric in the frame. I am a quilter and I have a beautiful African fabric that I cannot bring myself to cut. This will be perfect.
I almost fainted when you spray-painted that globe black. Yes, I am from that era 🤣. Thanks for your ideas and enthusiasm.
I to was saying to you don't do anything to the world globe. Then you did! I wasn't happy 😕. I've wanted one for a very long time. I don't know how old your kids are but that is an excellent teaching tool. It's good for kids and adults alike.
I do like all your creative ways of making stuff look better than it was to begin with. I wish I had your creativity!! Keep up the good work Liz 😃
@lisalang6071 I have always wanted one too as the world globes are so nostalgic. I love to learn myself. I want to be able to flag every place I have visited or worked. Many many years ago I found a company (I think it was in Germany) that still made them by hand. It was extremely expensive, of course that was based on a soldiers salary 🙃.
Hey Liz, Thrifting! I so.... much ENJOY WATCHING YOU THRIFT! Keep up the DIYs because slot of them I have made! Pam
Liz, you have a fantastic eye for creating really upscale looking results. One little suggestion I hope you'll consider: Please use a ruler with the rotary cutter. It is extremely easy to do serious harm to your fingers. Never, ever have any body part on in the line you're going to cut, and please, as an influencer of others, demonstrate safe techniques in your videos. Otherwise, you're doing great!
Thank you for something other than Dollar Tree items. You have such great ideas but the Dollar Tree items are a little cheap looking. Thrift shops sometimes have such high quality items, you can really get some good finds. Thank you for the ideas.
Keep the side table as is. Great video 😊
Lots of great ideas in this video.
Love chairs like that...have several around the house as decor pieces with pillows and afghans and I only buy sturdy ones....looks 😃
I enjoy your narration style :) So natural but also easy to understand and chill :)
Framed wood filler art project, once it was on the wall it looked really amazing. I think itloooks like an oak leaf or a bit like a stylized tornado. I am going with the leaf. I’m an artist myself & I like the dimensional work you do. I am inspired to get out a project and getting to work (more like playing for me)😊😎❤️🐶🐾🇨🇦👩🏻🎨
Moose on the chair...adorable!!! Love the large picture! I really enjoy your thrift makeover videos. Amazing transformations.
The lamp shade looks like a kcup holder lol
Your way of staining the chair then sanding it in places to give it the worn look, was exactly the trick I needed to do with a chair I have and love, but was unhappy with after I had restored it.
You should check out the hardware at the thrift stores. They have some amazing finds there too.
Love the fabric tray!!! I’ve been looking for a tray for my ottoman. I will be doing this project!!!
I had a few ugly, “80’s” picture frames. I still liked the design so I thought I’d paint them a matte black. I put on only one coat of black paint with no sanding or primer-just on the wood. It looked like a beautiful, walnut stain which I like a lot more. 😊
The frame using the wood filler would be cute with children or grandchildren hand prints or maybe dog paw prints. I’m new to your channel and so happy I did because you explain everything as you go. I’m seriously looking to create something new out of some of my ‘stuff’ first and go from there. Seems using my accounting office’s 2nd room needs organized and the space to repurpose. I started Christmas this year DIYing and family and friends love what I personally made for them. Surely, you’ve done hand prints before and there’s probably a better product to use but I got the need to do this for me, first. This video is going to be my ‘go to’ for a list of items I need. Not sure how I’ll do with the saws, etc 😅 I just got started with the 6000 glue and a hot glue gun! Oh my I need a cricket too! Thanks for the inspiration~it’s definitely a pro and not a con on my list!
The metal scooper thing is a coal scuttle, for picking up coal and storing it for coal fires that they used in the old days and the frame that was in pieces, I have one and I used to use it when I was doing a silk painting course and this is a frame that you can put together on the spot when you are doing a silk painting session, There are little flat push pins that you then secure the oil with along the frame as the wood is very soft!
I also like your creativity…looking at an old something and making it into a modern home accent. You inspire me!
I had seen a few of of the items that you DIY but not all of them. I really really love the one that you made into a mail holder that was pretty cool.
Thank you for the Before & After shots. I love that simple feature so much!
Oh my gosh the cabinet doors were so awesome and you are so amazing. I love love love what you do. I’m a farm girl / beaching on the weekends. So thanks for all your shares.
The large wall art DIY is Oh so perfect. I love making my own wall art. It is so fun and yours…. No one else’s will have it. Good job!
I love your style and creative brain, Liz. Thank you so much for sharing!
I love watching your little baby helping and supervising you
Just found your channel recently and love it! Been doing some binge-watching. So cool that you're nearby. I'm a few miles away in Topeka, and we have some good shops here, but also love thrifting in KC! It's been a while, but you're giving me lots of inspiration and making me antsy to go again, lol. 😊I loved a lot of the projects - the pot with the eucalyptus tree. the frame with the yellow cloth, the various wooden trays. That round side table was in beautiful condition, and I think you should leave the dark stain. And absolutely loved #41, the tiered tray. And I could go on. Must start taking notes!
You're so creative and skilled ! On the galvanized metal feed scoop - I'm betting that it was made for decor. I have never seen a feed scoop with feet on it before, or a handle quite like that - not just style but how it's positioned.. . I grew up on a dairy farm and have been on several other's farms. While it's been mostly just plastic scoops around for the past 30 years, I have seen several old metal ones, back in the 80s & 90s, and a few new ones in stores or catalogues since. I probably would have used it as is, on a porch table as a vase &/or centerpiece of sorts, but I also love what you did with it, esp. color and font choices :). On that little wood dish you put the row of Xs on, and then added more rows of shapes... I think it ended up to busy and... unsophisticated. JUST giving you my perspective, in case it helps you in some way. NOT trying to be a heckler OR make you see what I see and then feel bad ! I myself am 43 and STILL just learning the "less is more* and to self edit better. (Probably as evidenced by this long comment !)
PS - I love all your earrings and I'm not usually a fan of lipstick and don't wear it myself but yours looks nice and you pair it so well with your earrings :) !!
Love all your DIYs however the framed large paintings, if you could redo them like something more abstract and mysterious. Anyway I am getting so many ideas in my head from your DIYs.
Thanks from İstanbul Türkiye. You are a talented designer.
First of all, somehow you did all your projects (except stain) without gloves. And you had a very nice manicure throughout. No paint on your hands!!! I would have been covered after project one. I like your projects and will try some of them depending on what materials are available It would be great to have some of these projects have some color, everything was neutral. I would like to see wall art with color, etc.
It is seen in ALL of your videos; you are truly a sincere woman of God. Your listening to and following the leading of the Holy Spirit has not only blessed you and and your family; it has caused many, many others to come into spiritual and financial blessings. I prayed for clarity to start my business and I was led to you. Your video popped up without me putting in a search one day right after prayer. I was apprehensive and somewhat afraid to start a business at my age. After watching your video for the first time, I was given an incredibly strong confidence to pursue my dream. I have now started my gift basket business to include my handmade unique earrings. You have helped me step up, step out, and move forward to use the many creative crafting abilities God has given me to financially sustain myself and help others while having fun and blessing others.
I am excited to hit the streets for the first time.
It is amazing to me that God would inspire me at this late age in my life to start a new business through a person from socialedia that I've never met. A talented, creative, annointed woman of God. Thank you for all you do. I will continue to "like/comment" and support your channel. Maybe even visit your boutique one day soon. 😊
You and your support team are so appreciated.
You have helped me set up, organize, purchase, color coordinate, wrap my boxes, get my bows made professionally, now Im filling my baskets and going to made my money, honey!
I just stumbled upon your channel and love your content! Getting so many great DIY ideas from you. I am not creative so this helps so much. Thank you!
I love the chair and vase! But your sweet little puppy makes it even cuter. 🐶❤️
I am so glad I subscribed to your CZcams channel. You have great ideas
love the wave design cupboard doors - neat idea!
Love all your creations Liz, you are very versatile.
I love your little fur baby! I used to have a shitzu just like yours her name was Emma. We had her for 11 years. Such a sweetheart ❤
Wall decor is special! The salt and pepper look great!!
Thank you for sharing your inspirations. Kudos to your team, as well. I'm so glad I found you. Blessings.
Dog is the best decoration of all! 😁♥️
I think the dish you painted with amber sea glass looks like depression era glass. Beautiful.
I just want an invite to the yearly garage sale♡
Lol...at 1:28:17.... That little silver "tool" your using is actually a kitchen tool called a metal bench scraper... They're used for scraping your counters, cutting boards off when using dough products...they are also used for cutting dough.
You'll find them in the kitchen gadgets like sharp knives., Strainers, measuring cups, etc... You can find similar ones in plastic ( hard to find in stores, but can be found on Amazon) those are BOWL scrapers...really handy also ..you can also use them for crafting techniques.
It's really amazing the everyday things you actually have around your house that can be incorporated into crafting tools instead of buying expensive " tools"
Your big basket (#44) reminds me of one that I found at the thrift store at the beginning of fall for $3.99!! I almost screamed in the store!
Thank you Liz, you are the best DIY'r and art creator❤ Like your style.
You wonderful art work that wa a nice my favorite but trying a different pattern its a great idea
Love, love, love the fabric art in the frame and the joint compound art in frame!
Great ideas for repurposing and recycling, and decluttering ideas. Thank you for these ideas.
Thx for sharing...liked it all. Mail holder was my fav.
For #40: Keep the table dark. It makes a great contrast to all the light colors.
Well I’m almost done watching this video. I’m going to see it again 😀 Thanks for so many ideas. You are so talented 🥰
Omg you two are so cute. I just teared up seeing you and your husband 😍
Sand added to your paint gives a great texture to any project! I enjoy your channel! So many of the items
you find are retro... so retro to me, as l will be 75 2/6....the Lord willing! Jan 😊
I love the black frame that you did with the tan putty and then you painted it white I love that it came out nice
EVERYTHING U DO IS LOVELY. THE PROBLEM FOR US IS THAT THE APPLIANCES U USE ARE SO EXPENSIVE THAT IT WILL HAVE TO REMAIN A DREAM
Hey LIZ! 👋 Thanks so much for explaining that. I've been wanting those for so long. My husband thinks they are Christmas lights. Oh boy! When he gets home I'm giving him an education 😆
Love you shared this trip! I have family in Sevierville! One of my favorite places to visit!❤
I absolutely love your channel your ideas and creativity! I'm actually binge watching some videos! The only thing I would like to see is different colors besides blue 🤣 I know it prob goes with your theme and decor but seeing some variety of other colors would be nice ex: in your bathroom grays or guest bedroom pale mauve colors
Liz you are definitely stepping up your game! ❤️
I enjoyed it all.they were very beautiful diys Liz.Thank you for sharing these.
I liked seeing the finished product as soon as u r done. LOVE all your DIYs. Tkx
You are so talented Liz!
My favorite was the picture frame and abstract art design you did to go in it! I watch you everyday. I’ve gotten so many inspos from your creations. You’re definitely one of not favorites!
I love mixing colors, too!
You guys have the best dollar tree shops. The stuff you make and for the prices is brilliant. I do be amazed at the prices. Here in Ireland they are called euro shops but nothing is a euro lol so I save things I think I could re purpose and end up with loads of junk because i dont know what to do with it lol. Unfortunately, creativity doesn't come naturally to me,hence watching your videos, ha. BTW you're a natural on TV. I watch alot of CZcams stuff and I also turn off alot of it. There can be a lot of fast talking, talking constantly without speeding up some parts, not taking a breath, etc. Anyway, thanks for all your work. It can't be easy x
I used accordion coat hangers to hang necklaces, bracelets back in the 80s.
Some really neat ideas ! I have to admit, the Walnut burl box painted white made me want to cry though.
