just as clarification...Antiques are items which must be at least 100 years old...///vintage: Most antique dealers consider an item to be vintage if it is at least 40 years old or less than 100 years old.

Yes! I think the reason everyone refers to the store as Antique is because they have a huge inventory of extremely older pieces, (but they also have newer thrift store items as well) so kinda best of both worlds 😀 Thank you so much and I hope you have a Great week! 💕

I love carousels. I have several of them. My great grandsons got a hold of one and over wound it.

You have to be careful with pots for live plants sitting on anything you don’t want damaged. Even on a cement porch the high moisture content soaking through on a continual basis with change the color of cement (or wood floor). If you elevate it on legs, the moisture will have an escape.

Loved all your flips. It is my understanding that oven cleaner removes stain so if a piece is not stained it doesn't do much. It looked like the bowl just had sealer on it so that might be why it didn't work.

What size are your pillows? It looks like your couch is a similar size to my IKEA loveseat, however your pillows look bigger than my pillows. I wonder if I can try that size pillow. Also can you share where you bought the grain sack on Etsy. So far loving your videos

@christinescreations9029

Жыл бұрын

Hello Nanette! These pillow sizes I made are 26 x 26 but you could make any size you need. My couches are quite large (8.5' long x 4' deep) so I made bigger ones to kinda match the size. (but I also have a smaller pillow on there from Ikea for reference - the cute plaid one 20x20 which is a great size too). I've been purchasing the grain sack fabric from a couple different people on Etsy (sweet Annie acres and sunny slope farms, they also sell pillows if you don't want to make them) but there are lots of people who sell it there so you can find what you like 😀 Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks so much!!!💕
