Maui Vlog: Stormy Winter, Thrift Store Shopping
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Maui Vlog: It's been a stormy winter and spring in the islands. Here's a little peek at our week. We'll take you thrift store shopping at some of our favorite local places including Savers and Habitat for Humanity's The Restore. Shop Costco and for fruits and vegetables at the farmer's market. Mend a dress with Unique Stitch fabric glue. Be Mexican foodies and when the sun comes out, we'll check out what the bees and butterflies are up to in the cottage garden. ;)
Thanks for hanging out with us this week. In the next video, you'll see what the Mexican Thrift Store Frame looks like now.
xoxo,
Christine
Every year when we go to Maui we always know we are going to get at least a couple rain bursts. For that Saver's dress, before you glued it, I was going to suggest that you could wear a cute crocheted belt or scarf around it to hide the hole? Your tacos looked delicious! Always fun spending the day with you. xoxo Elle

It rains a lot. People from the rest of the country have the dumbest ideas about Hawaii. I don't know why when I was younger I didn't think about going back to get away from the Mainland ignorance.
Oh my goodness! Your garden has come along so well! Amazed by nature and how fast plants and flowers grow :)
Wow your garden is HUGE - feels like you planted it all yesterday, can't believe it! I miss your guinea pigs so much :(
Love the garden, the dress, thrift store shopping, your beauty room and cottage, your videos and you guys:)) lol...xoxox
I like how Michael listens to you when you're talking. I've noticed a lot of couples I watch on UA-cam (and a lot in real life) there's always that person in the relationship that never listens and interrupts with a change of topic. Anyway his reaction to the dress was also really funny and adorable.
Oh yes, I've noticed that, too. It is because they treat each other with respect. They are not only a love couple but also best friends! It is a real pleasure to watch them both spending time together :)
Unfortunately there will be no kids, even though they would have tought them so so much, really everything, they would have been awesome parents, at least I feel so.
Lol Michael reaction to the dress.. He's sounds happy :) it looks lovely on you :)
Hey Christine and Michael! I just received my package of your exquisite handmade jewelry! The delicate necklace with the pale green stone droplet takes my breath away, looks even better on. And the antiqued and accent painted leaf earrings are.....so perfect for me, thank you. Ya'll are gifted artists! I also got a huge kick thinking you packed it all up so cozy and cute, the gauze bags and our favorite light green blue colored tissue! Ok I am weird but a huge fan, duh.
Love to share your day with you. The garden is serene and lush-your thumbs are so green! Gods green, and colorful, earth enhanced by you both. Take care....
You guys make such a nice couple! The foundation of friendship that you share with one another is very clear. As is the respect. Love seeing what you're up to! You both seem like lovely people. Have a nice week!
Yes please more food vlogs! It's so inspiring to watch what you're eating whenever I feel stuck in a food rut
I always love watching your "day in the life" videos! I love going to thrift stores and whenever I'm in Maui I always hit Savers! Your DIY projects are very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
The dress...yes, gotta agree with MIchael :) It looks like it was made for you! I have said this before but the serenity in the garden is amazing. It is crazy but somehow it makes me feel relaxed and calm even if I'm on the other side of the globe! As always, greetings to MIchael!
Thank you, gardens are very serene aren't they. It's so enjoyable to just quietly listen to the sounds of the birds singing, bees humming, feeling the gentle breeze, blooms bursting with beautiful colors. It sparks a calm energy and happiness within. :)
Haha, when Michael said he almost went in the dressing room and took the dress off. U can never go wrong with Mexican food!!
Your rainy day outfit explanation was funny and cute:D:)
Looked good in that dress.
Love your vlogs.
Thank you
WOW. I wish we had a Habitat For Humanity Reuse store in my area! LOVE the gsrden! It has grown so beautifully! the property owners must be thrilled. YUM! Lunch looked great!

You are so sweet and so inspiring. Hope you have a fabulous day!

Gee those are my favored videos...it's like we're actually hangin out with you. You and Michael are always up to something and it's fascinating to follow your journey...triple love you both and looking forward for another day with you guys...thanks for your genorosity and your friendship 😊
I love when you were mending the dress and reading those directions made me laugh. I love your vlogs, they are always the first thing I look for when I visit UA-cam!
It's amazing how quickly you guys have gotten back into your life in Maui after so much travel. You make it look so easy! (Your cottage decor is very cozy.)
I love y'all so much!!! Michael is so funny. You got him hot & bothered over that dress! Love it!!! 😍😍😍
Omg!how amazing is your garden! Same as mine in flower-amount. Just different flowers due to different climate! Looking forward to your vlogs!
I live on Maui as well and bootzie came into the salon I work at about a year ago and gave me her scented oil she makes and she mentioned that someone on UA-cam mentioned it and I finally found your account! Gained a new follower :)
i really love you vlogs i wish you'd them more... and super love your DIY's :)
Love your day in the life videos (and all others too!). Thanks for sharing! Spring has finally sprung in the Midwest and your ideas and videos have inspired me to tackle a few new projects! Please keep them coming! :)
That dress looks great on you! Actually your so tiny and gorgeous, anything looks fabulous on you! Love your vlogs :)
Your lifestyle is so zen-like. Such a lovely couple and I just love these type of vlogs. I love the garden, girl!
Thanks for sharing your time with us. The sunflowers are beautiful. I am so glad it is getting warm here in Indiana. I am ready to plant my flowers for Summer and we will be having sunflowers all over.
Your garden is looking beautiful! Oh jeez, when Michael was asking about what colour you would call that and you said vibrant orchid, that reminded me of a time just a couple days ago when my friends and I were walking to get food and drinks after an exam, and we started talking about colour and how girls are more specific while guys are more simple. So cute seeing the butterfly and bees getting work done, but no way would I let them be near me in person. haha
Oh my gosh, I love that silver storage container! So pretty!
I really enjoy your videos Christine - there's something so calming about you! I love how you enjoy the simple things in life - it makes me stop and reconsider decisions in my own life... Wonderful! :) xo
Those tacos look yummy. The Unique Stitch seems interesting. Please keep us posted on how it worked out. Thank you for taking us along with you on your errands...enjoyed:)
I love love your videos,can't wait for you to show us how to renew that nice frame cause I'll do it on the one I have.Thanks for the enjoyable videos.
As always, love your vlogs :)
I always go to Costco too and I feel like I am shopping with you! I just SO love you and your videos. God bless you!
Oh, I love Habitat for Humanity. Nice work, guys :) x
I live in Maine and love your videos. My husband and I own his old family farm house and there is no closet space so watching your videos has given some great ideas on how to maximize space. I look everyday for your videos so please keep them coming
So cute how Michael was talking to you about the dress. It is obvious he adores you!
I wish our Habitat store had good stuff like yours! It's mostly a bunch if old toilets and 70s furniture. I still look though. Lol
Just love these videos with a little bit of everything.I'm sure you will miss your lovely garden when you move but on to a new adventure soon.
The garden is amazing! You've done such a great job with it!
Another new vlogging and shopping video. Yay! I have to comment my excitedness before watch the video. Lots of love. Xoxo
Yes please to the food vlog/diary. What may seem ordinary to you guys, can still be an inspiration to others. I always love to see what people eat, just to mix up my own food taste. Your garden is so cute. You are lucky to live in such fertile climate!
Your garden is phenomenal!! I remember it looked like a barren desolate land when you started it only a few weeks (it seems like) ago! I can't wait til planting season here in Jersey. TFS
I love the vlogs I wish there was daily video I love how the garden turned out and good job on the dress very cute.
I really enjoyed this one, the garden is so pretty. Love seeing your shopping. The dress is very 60's mod style I love it. BTW Michael reminds me of Donald from That Girl TV show from the 60's, I always liked Donald. I'm retro all the way LOL. I found a shag rug at ross like yours and love it. Thanks again!
Love these videos. Your garden came out amazing!!! Sent my son to Hawaii last year can't wait to get there myself! You look like u have a wonderful life.
I'm blown away by how fast your garden has grown. My husband and I go to Restore also, great place.
I absolutely love your vlogs! If you ever wonder to yourself if you post too many vlogs... there's no such thing! I'm 21 and in college and I really hope to be able to live a life like yours one day. You seem to have such wisdom and a great attitude towards life.
I love watching your vlogs. Your garden is lovely.
Love seeing your day-to-day activities. Your husband is handsome! Thanks for sharing!
I love your daily vlogs and seeing your food, even if it's the same it makes me think " oh yeah I'd like that today too" lol, and of course I love seeing the ocean :) Your crafts are always so cool, and you like the same things I do- natural or yummy fragrances- just love it all! :)
Your vlogs are so entertaining. I envision myself living in Maui too when I watch them! Sometimes I want to just get away and live the simple life.
Don't think I ever saw you in a dress before and this one looks great. Suits you.
Oh and yes to food vlogs!!
Agree! :-)
i love your vlogs they're amazing!! The clips of the garden were nice and refreshing as well!
Wow that garden has grown...it so pretty...thank you for sharing...
Love this Christine! I was just going to ask you to do more food vlogs as one reason that I started watching your channel was your natural skin care/acne routine and healthy eating/food vlogs! Your garden looks great...You have inspired me to start a garden with my kiddos this spring :)
Wow...your garden is so happy!! The dress is adorable on you, but let's get real...what isn't?! Looking forward to seeing what projects you're cookin' up! ;-)
I love your videos, thank you for taking the time to make them :) I heard if you plant garlic near roses it keeps the pests at bay. That may be worth trying :)
Thanks Melissa! I'll try the garlic. :)
The dress is gorgeous on you. Loved the vlog especially Costco and the recycling place :-)
I just love your garden! So Beautiful x
I've been waiting for another one of these day-in-the-life videos. The environment looks good on my TV. It motivates me to want to get out, run errands, and lollygag around town...but then I realize I'm in the complete opposite of that place.
I'm moving to Maui in September to Wwoof, I've been watching some of your vlogs and it's gotten me really excited. :) I've been there to visit before so it's really cool to recognize the places in your videos
New Sub here! Love seeing Hawaii. My mom lived there as a child, and of course I have always dreamed of going there for a month maybe. Not a fan of flying though. Love your DIYs as I also love taking old and making new. You are so pretty.
I love this type of videos. Thank you for sharing!
So Fun to shop with you! I'da gotten the Candy EDT, but I make it in soaping, so that'd still be a hard decision. What a wonderful ReStore you have! Ohmygosh! I had that glass/silver topped jar! It was from Avon and had bath powder in it. I wonder if I still even have it somewhere...
Love your vlogs! They are so good you always leave me wanting more! :-)
Thanks for sharing your day. I always look forward to your videos
I love these "take us through your town" kinda videos. :)
Don't complain about the rain, here in Michihgan we had over 112 inches of snow with roofs caving in and ice dams galore. I'll take your rain anyday. Love your videos and your garden is spectacular!
I had a good time following you around. LOL! Was that soursop I saw behind the star apples? I haven't had that in soooo long. So yummy and good for you! A bit of a pain to eat but worth it.
I like to see your grocery hauls too, I'm super interested in your diet! I have made many purchases based on your vlogs, been transitioning to vegetarian and your videos are very helpful and informative.
Just vlog, it doesn't matter if it the same type stuff most of us are easily amused! It makes us happy!
I love your vlogs so much!!!
wonderful video my friends both of you are so funny love it,keep on sending more videos.
I'm glad you went back for the dress...you look lovely in it. :)
I want Michael's taco recipe! Looks amazing!!
I like the dress and I think you look good in it.Love your videos!
Thumbs up for Michael almost following you into the fitting room! haha
I always enjoy your vlogs! Keep 'em coming! ;)))
Hi! UA-cam recommended your channel to me, and I'm so glad they did. I love the variety of videos you have and am looking forward to watching them all! And, I wish I had your nails. Going to take notes on what products you use from your nail video :)
You are super young and you look GREAT in that dress! :) I love the Unique Stitch! I use it for so many projects! Keep happiness in your heart while continuing to inspire the people who love you! Maybe it will even spread a tiny bit to those whose lives are so negative!!
i love when you put up vlogs! i wouldn't mind a couple recipe videos, i kind of have the same diet as you (i'm vegetarian but sensitive to dairy). i am so ridiculously envious of your garden!
I love your happy garden!
Love your videos, it doesn't matter what you and Michael are doing, you're such a beautiful couple. Love the dress on you. Hugs, Heather
Your garden looks beautiful!!!
