    I just saw this video today! I had to go to the store and low and behold someone had one at the curbside for free! Of course I put it in the back of my Tahoe and brought it home to redo! I certainly hope it turns out as beautiful as yours!!

    I have a cardboard box that just screams floor planter. It's long and rectangular. Thanks to this video I will buy some stir sticks, cover the box and put some long faux grass plants in it. I would love if you could make a tutorial.

    Absolutely stunning and the Grey Stain with that Tiffany Blue! Stunning simply stunning! I also love any woman that uses power tools! I can’t believe those are “Paint Stir Stick”! I’m assuming you left the trim off the back so you could place your cabinet flush against the wall. Good thinking! ♥️👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    • @SheSoCraftDee
      @SheSoCraftDee  Před 3 lety +1

      That is correct. The back has no trim so it ca be flush to the wall: So glad that you liked it! :)

    @greyspot00 Před 3 lety

    Really cute, but how durable is this? I imagine the top is a little uneven and God help you if you spill anything on it as it's going to get all in the gaps.
    How was this thing to move? I'd be afraid to move it around with everything being held on with glue, and the cabinet itself being so heavy.

  • @verlamcdonald7659
    @verlamcdonald7659 Před rokem +1

    I feel like I should have used a roller rather than a brush to apply the paint. So streaky! I’m going to sand and redo. Would you suggest Foam or nap? Thank you

    • @SheSoCraftDee
      @SheSoCraftDee  Před rokem

      It depends on what kind paint you are using. If it is self leveling, I go for foam. Now that I have a cheap paint sprayer, I use that for everything!

    • @SheSoCraftDee
      @SheSoCraftDee  Před 3 lety

      Yes, I purchased the handles in bundles of 10 for $6.99, making each 69 cents each. It looks like they are now out of stock.
