Catherine...Thank You for showing a replay of these makeovers. I love your "I can do" approach to something new. You inspire me to stop thinking and more doing. I am tackling my craft room from scratch. ❤❤❤

Soo satisfying, I often get caught up in the “what’s next” it’s nice to pause
You're so creative and talented. These projects are fantastic, especially the panelling in your lounge, the bottle candles and the little stools. Look forward to seeing more inspiring ideas in 2024.

Catherina thank you for the walk down memory lane. I remember how beautifully the hot air balloon lamp shade and all the accessories were for both rooms. You are the best Aunt.

Great job and thank you so much for taking the time to put together this video and sharing! Hope you are having a wonderful Holiday Season! All the very best for a Safe, Healthy & Happy New Year!✨✨🎆🎆 Lots of love Kathy x 💖💖(Ontario, Canada)
I put museum wax under diffusers in case the cats like to brush past them. When you are ready to change the diffuser I use a butter knife to lift the jar and then I remove the wax. Sometimes the wax can be used again.

If you take warm water in a water bottle, put towels on the floor and spray the wall top to bottom five times the wallpaper will peel right off. ❤

I bought my lil 1920's farm house almost 10 months ago and it's a work in progress. Always love your diy videos. I'm sadden that when your book came out I was not able to get a copy, I was really looking forward to reading and trying someone the diys you have done. Thank you for sharing your videos. You are truly an inspiration to us diyers of all kinds. I watch your videos from my cozy lil house In Middleton ,Mi. United States. Will be looking for your next videos. Thank you again and hope you have a wonderful Christmas and New year.

Hi, I don't sell any of my makes, however I do have two books id you would like to support, they are linked in the description x
“Measure twice; cut once.” Yeah, right. It’s more like “Measure twice; cut once. Cuss a little. Cut again. Cuss a little more. Run to the builders’ store for more wood. Repeat until the project is done or you decide to burn the house down.”
