TOP TEN TRICKS FOR UPCYCLING THRIFT STORE FINDS!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video, I demonstrate ten different ways to upcycle and elevate your thrift store finds, so that they can “reach their potential.” These methods include incorporating fabric, using ribbons and trims, adding natural elements, decoupaging (especially with inexpensive napkins), adding pretty paper, adding small embellishments (such as unique buttons), using rub on transfers or stickers, adding faux or real plants and flowers, and incorporating metallic accents. I will transform 10 of my own thrift store finds to show you how these ideas can take a thrift store item from so so to spectacular! Hope you enjoy the video and are inspired to try some thrift flips of your own!

I love the way you finish the back of your projects. I know no one ever sees the back, but it is so professional.

Thank you very much! Because I sold my DIY projects in a booth for many years, I always feel like the back should be finished, too!

Sherry - you outdid yourself with the Blue and White decoupaged lamp. Bravo!
The lamp was beautiful. Such a transformation and so high end. Absolutely stunning.
I am like a child in a candy store, just waiting for your videos. Thank you for being you.
I think the lamp was the most dramatic transformation. I find it amazing that a combination of budget friendly supplies can yield such a change. I also enjoyed the wood bowl with the dried pressed blooms. I am a sucker for dried flowers.

Hello Sue, how are you doing today
You are like the queen of thrift flips. I love all of your ideas and some of them are such simple, easy ways to just completely change an item, but it's having the creativity to see beyond what's there and really create something brand new. Thanks for helping us save money and make our homes beautiful. God bless you!

@@CanterburyCottagenew subscriber. You should have been an art teacher. What is the best way to dust/clean your fabric and botanical creations?
An "unfortunate" original paint job on the lamp? LOL! You are too kind! I LOVE the lamp--the finished product, and can't wait to try it!
I love the butterfly branch. So cute! I love when you say, "from my stash". You've got so many great things in Your stash.
Simple..lovely..and very creative..you are always surprising..thank you Sherry for your precious ideas
As I watch you work, there's is a smile on my face and I shake my head in awe of your creativity. Thanks for all that I've learned.
No way can I choose a favorite. Every. Single. One. Is. Awesome!!
I appreciate you - I have no idea how you come up AND complete all these projects,but I’m thrilled each week to see!

Thank you so much! Delaine, that is so very kind of you to say!
You would have been over the moon if you had seen what our neighbors pulled out of their great grandmother's shed. I took home three amazing, but very rusty, French plant carts and stands. Then I noticed an arched metal arch with three rings for placing plants (not sure of the name) and with watching all your videos I knew I would find a purpose for it and now wish I had taken more of their stash that was put out for garbage. Your channel has sparked the creative part of my oh so damaged brain. Thank you for this renewed gift. You never know how you will touched another's life and you have dearly touched mine. God Bless.
I love all your ideas. I wish you would consider helping your followers figure out how to decorate an area in their home. A good example ...a small corner or an odd shaped space. You are so good at coming up with unique and fun ideas.
I love how that lamp came out with the blue and white napkins, beautiful!
I , too , Love the lamp , but I also love the wooden bowl ! I have some lovely dried flowers that I plan to use the same way.
You always amaze me with your projects…love them all!
So many wonderful creations, Sherry! My favorite was the lamp! I love it!
That polka dot lamp makeover is stunning!!
All gorgeous but that lamp is perfection!!!

The lamp is my favorite ! Love all the refurbished items !
The lamp turned out beautifully
The lamp is just beautiful! But I think my favorite is the metal box!!
LAMP! Definitely! But they're all lovely.
I like the butterfly branch. It is so whimsical. The lamp was amazing too.
The lamp was quite a transition! My favorite.
The pressed flowers in the wooden bowl were lovely. And that lamp! No wonder it’s your favourite! Thank you for another delightful video.
My favorites were the wooden bowl with flowers, the frame using the fabric scraps and the small bouquet of dried flowers, and the lamp…Sooo pretty!
Such great ideas. Love what you did with the box and the frame with the branch. It's always a joy when you have a new post.
The decoupaged lamp is absolutely stunning. I love decoupage, its so satisfying!
You are just amazing! I love all of today's up-cycled items.

Keep the butterflies, Sherrie, but put the twine covered branch in the recycle bin. Everything else was WOW!!!
A bird nest would have taken the frame and branch up to another level. Absolutely beautiful.
The lamp turned out beautiful! It looks like Dresden porcelain!
I watch a lot of thrift, decor, and redo videos. I truly believe you outshine them all. You take items you find and make masterpieces out of them. All the things you makeover to reuse is high class for expensive home decor. It doesnt look like Dollar Tree objects repainted or redone some way.

All of these turned out so adorable. The lamp is my favorite… it’s gorgeous.
While I love everything you do, I have to admit that the lamp is the best yet. That is amazing. You have such a great eye for hidden treasures.
Love what you do. Thank you for sharing your projects! They are all so beautiful, but that wooden bowl idea was genius!
The lamp was my favorite, it is just beautiful.
The mirror covered with fabric was very nice.
Definitely the Queen of Decordom!
My favorite is the metal box. But the lamp is also gorgeous!
All are quite lovely! But, oh! That lamp! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I absolutely love all your crafts with birds....always beautiful!❤❤
I love how the box turned out and the lamp.
I loved the lamb, wood bowl and the hook. Everything was incredible ❤
My favorite is also the lamp. The projects are all lovely, the lamps just jumps out at me. Thank you for sharing.
The lamp makeover was beautiful!
That lamp….OMG. Beautiful ❤ and the William Morris frame…. I love it
All of your projects are lovely and creative but, oh that lamp!!! Gorgeous!
I love how your metal file box turned out - so clever!
I have never wanted to take the time to glue flowers to a branch to create a tree, but I like your idea of a framed twig.
There is no end to your talents and imagination ❤
By George, you’ve done it again! The fabric on the metal case was the method I needed to see today! Thanks again Sherri for reading my mind … again! 😊
Amazing up cycled projects today my favorites are the wood bowl, the twig picture frame and the file box. Thank you so much for sharing all your wonderful ideas in your videos, I look forward to watching every week.
The lamp caught my eye as well. That blue and white napkin set has been put to such good use!
That lamp was amazing. I loved the green box too.
I think the bowl and the lamp are my favorite but all of them are wonderful.
My favorite was the doily ribbon around the basket and the coat hook makeover.
That coat hook is divine!!!
Another video of beautiful upcycled goodies. Yes, that lamp…💙🤍💙

My favorite is the frame with the sticks and flowers. A smaller version would look good with a grouping of things. Of course the lamp was your choice!! It is lovely.
All wonderful ideas, but my favorite is the lamp.
The way you were able to piece the napkin together on the lamp is amazing!! You do the most amazing flips with thrift items. I don’t ever seem to find good thrift items but it’s probably my lack of imagination.
My favorite project in this video was the toolbox. You made it look like a trunk. That was awesome.👍
My favorite was the beautiful lamp 💕
The wooden bowl is fantastic.
The candle lid with the coat hook is my absolute favorite though several others come very close.
The lamp was definitely my favorite as well. Lovely!
