We’ve been our home for 51 years and I’m still tweaking. I love doing that. Always evolving and making it new again.

Wow, looks like someone from the 1800's walked away from it working and was going to come back. So cool

That case behind you would make perfect spots for all of your adorable LITTLES❤❤❤❤😊 And that work bench is just beautiful 😍 You guys make a beautiful couple for so many reasons ❤ but one is that you both are perfectionists and compliment and lift each other up so beautifully 😊❤ Godspeed ❤😊

🤎 That work bench…. Imagine that used as a dinning room buffet. Your shop/studio is really starting to take shape. Holy cow 🤎 I love your entryway. That cupboard is an amazing piece.

The arch makes perfect sense

I love the wall going into the paint room

I think you two are the utmost in hosts! Can always be assured your show is the best! Always learning from you , love Chris’ willingness to do whatever needs to be done! He reminds me so much of my husband when we were young. I’m old enough to be your all’s parents, but love, love, love your channel!

OH MY ….. which do I love the most ? The Pallet wall makes my heart skip a beat…then you turned the camera to that OLD WOOD WORK BENCH … I think my heart stopped! I don’t know what it is about OLD WOOD…. but it has my heart for sure! I am so excited you are keeping those shelves for your shop….I love seeing them behind you! This way we can see them often🥰. The Mirror placement is perfect..first thing I thought was “ it matches the curve of the clock! “ I never knew that information about the Bowling Alley lanes! My husband was a long time bowler and I asked him if he knew that…of course he did …LOL!!!! It is all coming together so fabulous. People ask me for ideas on decorating their homes and I always say “ the house has to talk to me and I have to feel what it wants”. I can’t just walk into a home and tell someone to do this or that ! My house I feel talks to me ! Silly right ? Love it all and SO GLAD TO HAVE A PALLET WALL AND DOOR BACK AT “GCR” 🥰🥰👍🥰🥰

I agree.. your house.. home does speak to you. Giving tips is easy. But doing it for others wouldn’t be the same. If someone came in a decorated my home.. I’d feel like I was living in a hotel. Yes.. there’s just something about old wood. No matter how we try to replicate it . It’s not the same❤

What a gorgeous work table! Oh my the counter came to life with the wax! Love, love, love that barn door❤The pitchers did the job of covering the thermostats and the cloche group was so precious! Could you stick some tacky putty on the back of the clock face to keep it in place? Love it all!❤

*The cubbies look fabulous on that wall‼️ How about using the cubbies for all of your "smalls" so you can see them ALL at a glance, making it easier to create your vignettes, shadow boxes and other DIY'S you create with other small pieces and parts? Of course hardware, nails, keys and other TINY things will still need to be housed in bins and drawers. 😊*

Your work shop will.most likely never be completely finished. Just when you think your done something will pop up that will make your space a little bit better and easier to work in. But it will get better. Love your videos. You and Chris are just like your projects perfectly imperfect and entertaining just as you are.

Palate wood is my favorite also.

Love that work bench. The wood is so beautiful n the stories it could tell. Chris did a awesome job in building that sharp looking barn door. I too love pallet wood but there a booger to take apart even with a reciprocating saw. Oh Yvonne your Ironstone pitchers are so beautiful n great idea hiding those control boxes. And I loved that big beautiful bowl in front of them. It all looks so nice. Yep, perfect spot for the mirror. Looks good black too. I have a thing for mirrors. I love old mirrors that have different shapes n even better if their beveled. OMG, that cloche its huge n loving how you displayed with your Bibles n that sweet piece of wood you did over. Girl, you got this! ♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟

Hey...I found this old wooden crow on a stick and repainted it, I will enjoy the crow in my planter next spring, thanks for the encouragement on redoing things! the spray room walls and door look great!

Oh that clock! I have 450+ never seen one I didn’t love. Taught myself to work on them. They are a fabulous piece of history.

String the one side of clock with fishing wire maybe

I just love seeing what you guys are up to, I really do hope you get the subscription you need to get Chris working from home soon x

Yvonne I have to laugh we bought 4 bowling alley lanes and used part of them for the top of 2 of our workbenches. My bench has metal cupboards under part of it. His has an old restaurant hostess table, which is about 10 ft long . We had to use our tractor with the pallet forks on to move it into place. Our bunkhouse walls are all pallet wood with a horse stall door for the bedroom door. Chris does awesome work and so do you!

*Yvonne, to level the clock face, could you insert a shim of wood? Maybe it would have to be doorstop-shaped to wedge it in so it would stay in place.*

I LOVE THE PALLET WALL!! Also love the decor you added in your home!!!!❤

Use a piece of heavy duty black Velcro to make that edge of the clock stay up on that one side. It’s amazing in how many things that Velcro has works for me in my projects.

I want Chris to build me a barn down. Lol. Love you new home so much.

I’m actually looking for 2 old doors with windows to do the barn door look but can act like French doors from my foyer into my old formal dining room!! I turned it into a sitting room with a $20 couch!! It is also where I put my houseplants so want it closed off cuz cats like eating them!! Love how you covered the thermostats and the cloche!!-❤that black horse in there!!💓💫💓

I am so much love for your ideas and such a beautiful home! I love all your channels! I watch daily😂😮😅😊

Love the barn door it has so much character and the new touches to your home.

Your hubby does beautiful, beautiful work!

I love this channel! I cant believe everyone who watches your other channel doesnt watch this one! Both of your channels provide excellent content!

Beautiful!

I think you should keep it!!! It a beautiful job and pice! I think you should white wash it on the outside of it, not the inside of the shelves. That will give it a balance of both in what you are looking for. If you feel the need that you should paint the inside, then you can.

Get some fun tack for the clock it will hold it up and won’t do any damage to anything

Get some poster tack or a push pin 😂 looking BEAUTIFUL

home depot has the clear plastic curve vent covers they have magnets on them so the stick to your floor vent and they direct the air from the vent out so if you have furniture that is over a vent these things directs the air out, telling you this because I noticed your cupboard in your entryway was over a vent....I have them and they work very well.
