If you love creative thrift flips, vintage-inspired home decor, and learning new DIY techniques, I hope these transformations inspire you to see the beauty and potential in secondhand finds.

Thrifted Flips Using the Latest IOD Release! đŸ˜Č
In today’s video, I’m giving new life to a few handmade rustic wooden decor pieces. ✹

If you love repurposed vintage finds and farmhouse-style dĂ©cor, you’re going to enjoy these transformations! I’ll walk you through how I took these pieces from worn and tired to beautifully refreshed—perfect for adding charm to any space.

I used DIY, Fusion and Sweet Pickins Milk Paint and created soft, timeworn look we all love. If you’re curious about working with milk paint or want to try it for yourself, you can find my favorite products here:
👉 https://sgvintagecrafts.com

At Small Gestures Vintage & Crafts, I’m all about reducing, reusing, and rescuing forgotten pieces and turning them into something meaningful and beautiful.

💬 Let me know in the comments: Which piece was your favorite—the the farmhouse decor or the funky farmhouse owl?

Anyone know where I can find another one?
In today’s video I teamed up with Heather from @CreateYourOwnCozy and visited her home to choose items from her stash for us both to upcycle! Watch as I transform some of her stash thrifted and forgotten pieces into vintage-inspired DIY home dĂ©cor using milk paint on every project.

Milk paint is perfect for upcycling furniture and home dĂ©cor while achieving that timeless vintage look. I carry the milk paint I use in this video, and you can shop available colors directly on my website at sgvintagecrafts.com. If you’re ready to start your own upcycling project, I’d love to help you find the perfect shade!

Be sure to check out Create Your Own Cozy’s video to see what she created from the stash items, too!

Floral Fantasy with the New IOD Spring Release
Willow Ranch Farmhouse was a delightful surprise during a recent trip to North Georgia. At 181 years old, it’s the oldest structure still in use in the county!
If you’re ever in North Georgia, this little shop is a must visit! 😍 #antiquestore #farmhouse
