GENIUS AS ALWAYS. I do want to say, you have the most amazing subscribers. For their comments to me last week was so special to me. They don't know me or my story but their thoughts and words of encouragement got me through the week. Thank you to every one of you. I flushed the pills. It's been rough since grandma/mom went to heaven and left me alone. Because of you all, I don't feel alone anymore. Thank you
I am glad you are here.
@@mikki3961 thank you so much
Hang in there Mikki. You’re more important than you can ever realize. Sending many positive vibes your way.
So happy you flushed the pills and possibly looked to the Lord for your comfort. I was at a wits end one time and the Lord gave me Joshua 1:9. I memorized it and it helps me every time I need encouragement. To quote..Be strong and courageous and do not despair, for the Lord my God is with me wherever I go.
Never feel alone people on here are lovely sending you love from U.K.
I loved the idea of putting the thread in the bird's beak!
I like to sew outside on my patio and every once in a while, a bird's nest will fall down out of the tree.
I find remnants of all my sewing projects in the bird's nests--some going back 2 years! (Threads, batting, and fabric)
A little squirrel figurine would be appropriate on a spool of thread, as well.
If I don't put away my spools of thread when I am done with my sewing projects, I find the spools of thread hanging from the trees where the squirrels have taken them (thinking they are walnuts!)
Squirrels are very intelligent, I don't think they're mistaking the spools for walnuts, I think they're playing with them.
🐿 💞💕
Reading your post, I remembered as a kid playing with my paper doll outside on the front steps of my house. There was a bit of a breeze and it scattered a few of the doll's outfits. A few months later, I found a bird nest with one of the paper doll's outfits woven into the nest!
The bird lamp was my favorite! I couldn't believe the transformation. It looked especially lovely with the patterned shade.
The lamp was the star of this video
I say it every time but I love all your inspirational ideas. You don't do the same old thing over & again like a lot of crafters do, like two coats of paint & decoupage, blah blah. Super videos that go way too fast. I could watch you for hours! Thank you.
All projects were fabulous but I am partial to the stuffed bunny with embroidered needlework.
The bird lamp is charming. Like you, I have a soft spot for little birds.
Oh, Sherry! The lamp is incredible! As you said, it appeared that the birds had always been attached. Your creativity is inspiring. Thank you for another enormously enjoyable video tutorial. xo.
You are so welcome! Thank you, Audrey! 😊 I can’t wait to see the lamp in the spare bedroom. I was painting the walls in there today.
The bird lamp came out beautiful and I love that new lamp shade with it.
I thought all the items were great, but, I'm in love with the bird lamp! So, so pretty!
Thank you so much! I love how that lamp turned out, too!
It’s always hard to pick a favorite! Such adorable ideas! The use of a stained tablecloth to make that sweet bunny was so smart! I’ll never discard a pretty, stained cloth again!
How you were able to visualise how the branch lamp with the birds would turn out like was genius ! I was completely taken aback at how well it turned out ! Brilliantly done ❤
Thank you so much! I think that I have just glued birds to so many things over the years that I was pretty sure it would turn out. I debated antiquing wax versus white wax, but I went with white because I thought it would look best with the cottage look I’m adding to the spare bedroom.
I have no FAVORITE, I love all your artistry, this is THERAPY to the fullest. I'm a retired Home Health Aide, this is great for all ages groups to keep all our sense healthy. Can't wait for next week your CZcams friend SHAUN 😊.
I love the stuffed rabbit pillow. A chenille bedspread scrap would make a darling lamb pillow. Thanks again for the inspiration!
Thank you, Donna! Yes, chenille would make an adorable lamb!!! I have a chenille scrap, so I may have to make one in a future video.
Ooh, I have chenille and love lambs, thanks for sharing. 😊
It's hard to pick a favorite but the quilt butterfly and the wheelbarrow get my vote.
Guess what is hanging in my basement? My grannies old clothespin bag, full of clothes pins. I loved the butterfly’s . You could make any design you wanted. I also love loved the cart with the cool carrots and the flocked bunny with her neat Easter bonnet. Very lovely video. Thank you Sherry, all the projects were lovely. Blessings!
You are so creative. You see the possibility in everything. So fun to watch you create.
Oh, thank you, Phyllis! 😊
Mrs Sherry, You NEVER cease to AMAZE me!! Always making something out of nothing, turning it into a work of art & always pretty!!!! ❤❤❤
What a really sweet thing to say, Erica! Thank you!
@@CanterburyCottage My pleasure!! Just speaking the truth!! ❤️
You can always be trusted to provide fabulous ideas. The bird lamp turned out so good and the color you chose was just perfect.
Thank you so much, Patricia! 😊
Everything turned out great, Sherry! I think my favorite was the lamp with the birds attached !❤❤❤
You certainly know how to elevate common items into special decor💖. I am at a complete loss to pick a single item as a favorite... All of them are favorites. Thank you Sherry for all the inspiration! See you next week!
Oh these are all so cute! But my favorite was the bird lamp! Am in love with that one.
Ooh, it’s hard to pick a favorite. I love the lamp base with the birds attached. I especially liked it with the second lampshade shown. The nest attached to the ivy branches was so pretty. And, last but certainly not least, that rabbit on the tray was just perfect! These are my top three but I enjoyed the whole video. Once again, I’m blown away by your ideas!
Thanks so much, Dianna! I agree the second lampshade looked best. I took off another lamp, so I will have to make a new one!
I loved the bird lamp and the watering can.
Can’t pick a favorite this week!!! They all turned out great❤
Fuzzy bunny in a hat? Sign me up! The bird holding the thread is *chef's kiss* - likewise the butterflies. As always, tiny details make your work so very special. Great episode!
Thank you so much!
I really like the tree branch lamp. It turned out beautifully. Even the little wooden wheelbarrow is adorable.❤
My favorites were the ones with birds. The best might be the bird lamp. I want that one!😄
Absolutely love the small spool of thread with bird- but everything was wonderful 👏👏👏soooo glad you changed out the lampshade on the gorgeous redo of birds & metal base
Amazing! The lamp and tray were my favorites, but all the projects were fantastic!
You hit it clear out of the park with the vintage tray!!!!!
Oh my goodness...EVERY idea was wonderful! You are such a creative person. Thanks for sharing! Happy Spring!
Love the lamp and the little spools. Love everything. Lol
I also have NO favorite, because everything you create look like masterpieces to me. You are a great artist. Look forward to each video.
I really liked the outcome of the lamp makeover!
Bird, bunnies, lambs, flowers! Oh my! What's not to love?
Sherry… you take little pieces on nothings and make adorable little something’s!! What patience and details you add to every piece!😊
Oh my gosh🤯😄 the added tiny touch of gluing the thread to the little bird’s beak from the spool of thread was soooo adorable and made such a big difference. Your ideas and vision for the tiniest of details is amazing. Can’t wait to make one. What a great way to use things I already have in my stash that were just waiting for the idea and or inspiration. Thanks for yet again inspiring me.👏🏻👏🏻😁
So fresh looking. If I set all the lovely things on my stove as you have I'd never want to take them off. Hmmm...that might disturb some hungry folks. Lol. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful ideas. Sometimes we get so blind to the opportunities of the things we can recreate. Thanks for sharing your inspirations
Wow Sherry,you never disappoint,thanks so much for sharing!!!
The brackets lamp was a great find. I love it. The yray js beautiful also n. Many great ideas today. ❤❤❤
Of course they were all great….goes to show how small and inexpensive items truly make a difference!
Putting the straw hat on the flocked bunny was genius. ❤ All projects are great.
Oh, thank you!
I love them all,but my favourite was the branch lamp with the birds that was awesome,the watering can was amazing too.Thank you for sharing your ideas with us,you are very creative.
I always love your videos, but the lamp with branches & the ceramic birds is gorgeous! Now I’m going to be looking high & low at all my thrifting spots for something similar! Fantastic video!
I absolutely adore that tray! I have tons of ideas swirling through my brain now.
I’m so glad, Mikki! 😊
Great use of materials but by far my favorite is the lamp.
That tray was magnificent! Loved the wood plaques images! Blessed upcoming SPRING days!
The bird lamp is so beautiful. The stuffed tablecloth bunny is adorable.
Loving the butterflies 💖... and the watering can 👏👍❣️
You have OUTDONE yourself!!! These have got to be some of my favorite makeovers I have ever seen!!! Bravo 👏

I like the bird lamp and the bunny in the wheelbarrow ❤
Thank you! 😊
I can't believe how creative you are! You never cease to amaze me. I loved the wheel barrow. It came out beautiful! You are my favorite crafter and I look forward to your videos every week!
You know I love all the bird diys. 😊 Sherry, I would love to see your take on the Easter tombs many make from clay pots. If you haven't seen them, there are many on Pinterest. Thanks for making each Monday enjoyable. ❤
Loved the stuffed bunny made from the table runner and the hare tray best ! :)
My favorite were the two wooden plaques near the end of the video. The butterfly technique is really a good idea. It makes the butterflies look so real. Really all the ideas were wonderful, as always. You are just so creative.
Which is my favorite....All of them !!!!! But, my most favorite was the Bunny..so adorable !
Favorites????? ALL OF THEM!! Thanks for sharing your ideas and talent.
The lamp with the birds on the branches was my favorite...bravo
I love watching what you do with hopeless things! You do amazing improvements to them!
I especially liked the spools with vine/wreaths…but that little hat on the bunny was just too cute! Thanks for many great ideas ❤️🙏🐣 🐇
I love the bird lamp! Beautiful!
My favorite this time was the bird lamp❤
The reverse decoupage hare on the tray was my favorite!
Can't choose just one this week...love the smaller spool 🧵 and the bird lamp. Thanks for sharing.
Favourites -Love the little animal idea! Yes I agree re lamps.. Love the branch lamp with birds! The wheelbarrow is cute, & with the hat Best idea is the rabbit I have been desperate for ideas to upcycle linen with embroidery & needle work. Great idea, Now I think stuffed baby toys. Love trays too, I like this look more with the aged look
Thanks so much! I’m so glad I could share a useful idea for embroidered fabric!
The bird nest glued to a vine was my absolute favorite but, as always, everything was beautiful!
I loved the stuffed butterflies on clothespins and the elevated stuffed bunny using an old embroidered piece. How many times have I passed up pieces with stains! Never again!
I’m more of an academia look so I loved that rabbit tray. But I must say I enjoy all your projects!
You never disappoint! You have such a knack for making over sad thrift store items. I couldn’t choose a favorite.
Sherri, I absolutely love everything you made. Each item you remade turned out so so beautiful but the bird lamp is my favorite. 😊❤
Sherry, It is hard to pick a favorite - but I have always loved lavender, so I guess the watering can with the lavender blooms!!!
I also as others said loved the bird lamp and the watering can.x
That is the cutest thing I really like that. That was a smart idea you did with the little hat for the bunny so cute
You come up w/ the most genius ideas!!!!!
Wow!!!! They are all so creative and inspiring but the bird lamp is hands down my favorite!! I’m on the hunt for a tree branch lamp to make my own!!
Thanks so much for the ideas!!
The butterflies reminded me of taking tissue paper and putting it in clothespins to make butterflies In my youth. Such a great idea for old or new quilt scraps!
Absolutely love it all! I saw a wheelbarrow at our local thrift store that I passed up because I didn’t have any ideas for it, now I do! Thank you❤
I loved the wheelbarrow so cute
That bird lamp is adorable! I wish I had your eye for turning thrifted objects into works of art!
Oh thank you, Kay!
Everything is so cute! I like the bird lamp and bunny tray the best.
Thank you! The lamp is my favorite, too!
Just catching up on your older videos and, as usual, they did not disappoint! Your designs are deceptively simple but oh-so creative! It is a sheer joy to spend time watching you at your craft!
The branch lamp with added birds turned out really nice. 🌿
Thank you! 😊
I loved all of today’s thrift flips, especially the table runner bunny.
All are very nice. My favorites are the bird lamp and the egg plaques. Thank you.❤
Thank you! 😊
The hare tray is lovely.
The table runner bunny is so beautiful 👏👏👏👏👏
Sherry you are the best. Yet again I love all the DIY’s from the Thrift store. Thank you for all the great ideas to revamp my thrift store finds. See you next week❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦
You are so welcome! Thank you, Beth! See you next week!
I started to comment three times to say a project was my favorite, but then the next one was even better! My favorite was the embroidered bunny. If he were mine, I would add a black shoe button eye or a mother of pearl button sewed on with a cross stitch! I love finding ways to save "wounded" linens; yours was AWESOME!
I love the bits of nature in these projects. Hard to decide if the lamp or the bird nest is my favorite
It's always hard to pick a favourite coz they're all so ingenious. I always enjoy watching how you elevate the world of DIY!! ❤
Wonderful makeovers!❤ My faves are the bunny and carrots in the wheelbarrow, the table runner bunny and the reverse decoupage bunny!😊
Thanks so much, Gail! 😊
I love them all ...the bunny tray turned out amazing.
Oh, thank you, Angela!😊
