    Construction waste and consumption is a big problem. This salvage yard is committed to minimizing construction waste, providing an affordable resource stream for the community, and offering public education about reuse. They also make donations of free supplies to local nonprofits and neighbors in need. If you're working on a remodel or building a home, salvage yards are a great option for more than just decor and furniture -- you can find donated tile, kitchen appliances, doors and much more, all while minimizing waste and contributing to a community fund.

      Hi Caroline, you have inspired me to thrift more for furniture pieces for my place!! I ended up finding a beautiful cherry wood dining table that folds out to seat 4, but it’s perfect for 2 in my tiny kitchen. Keep sharing your creative design ideas and promoting thrifting 💕

      I agree with the other folks. The darker, bigger mirror seems to be a better fit or balance in relation to the fire place opening. While a nice mirror the smaller one doesn't seem right over the fire place, but keep it! Love, love, love your energy and you make me laugh every time! I'm 73 yrs young and still decorating/rearranging my home and you are an inspiration!

      I’m no interior decorator but I love the big mirror! It looks so lovely and fits so perfectly there on the mantle. There were so many pieces of furniture that was so beautiful and priced so low. They just need some TLC. They just don’t make stuff like use to and I never realized how much antiques and vintage items are so beautiful.

So very impressed with your design sensibility. You have something unique happening in that muse of yours. Dont let anybody screw with it, cuz you are good. Dunno if you want your own design show and books and stuff, but that's where it's headed. Dont let 'em ruin you. You're cool.

    I am going to sound like a real weirdo but my mum was an interior designer and your aesthetic and taste are so similar to hers it’s uncanny. She also had an obsession with glassware, mirrors, antique and good romantic, cosy lighting too. Watching your vlogs and videos really brought back memories of my childhood tagging along on her shopping trips for clients and endless hours of messing around with styling around the house. And the weirdest part, she had gone to university in Washington DC, so it feels like everything had come full circle. Don’t want to sound maudlin here, but you have really helped me feel closer to my mum after her passing, thank you! Keep up the good work, I love your videos.

    I think you made the right decision to sell that mirror.. and love that new lamp as well! Good eye!

    I think the new-find mirror is a better scale and colour than the other one, and more architecturally interesting. The dark frame picks up on the deep colours of your fireplace surround and your Squares art piece (above your sofa) too.

    This is a new side of you, walking in a warehouse. I really wanted to see you driving a forklift maybe next week. Have a great week and thank you for helping me with my design problems.

    Love it-great video. My hospital Admin Dad was in a serious auto wreck (hit twice in the accident) when I was 12. Being Catholic in those days-all huge families...we had 10 kids all about a yr apart. Mom was left @35yrs old to raise us all alone (kinda makes the 1 child complainers sit up & think twice). I being the eldest, helped her raise all 10 of us-so did we THRIFT?! I'm just now in the last few yrs beginning to do things more for myself, however, I do know the JOY of giving & serving & continue in this mode I was taught by my precious Mother, Peg, "In GIVING, WE RECIEVE". All in balance w/boundaries. We all learned how to make Diamond out of the Rough & get on our elbow grease to create something beautiful. Love your place & took pics of your mantle ideas (the Mirror is gorgeous!) as I just left my retirement Dream Home I'd designed & built...from a mandate mania coastal state to move to a FREE state. Starting over at 71 is rough to move-but there's no price for Freedom! So, starting over in an older Casita Spanish style house & making it my own (hence-found you!)...FUN!!!! Thnx again, for your great creative video design ideas.

    We just bought in DC and my realtor HIGHLY recommended this place. I'm glad to see it's worth the hype. As soon as our house gets over the CO VID I'm out here🥴

    This was so nice, you made us a cool CW video snack before your surgery so that we wouldn't have to be starving for your insights while you healed! Literally using the last shreds of your frayed meniscus to take us on a thrifting journey. You're the best, Caroline😎!

    I’m in Baltimore and there’s a few places that have incredible antiques.
    The first that comes to mind is a place called Second Chances, which is near the casino here. But it’s this MASSIVE warehouse that has everything from the tiniest little vintage fixtures to literal two story stone columns pulled off old federal buildings or colonial houses. They have furniture, they have Knick knacks, they have vintage movie theater marquees. It’s insane! But so cool, even to just look around.
    I also think of another place called Ryan’s Relics that’s in my neighborhood(ish). It’s an antique place that mostly focuses on furniture but they also have smaller items. They have TWO locations right down the street from each other because they have so much inventory!
    PS.
    I never comment on UA-cam videos and I hardly follow anyone but you are one of my favorite channels.. Still cackling over the “Jesus Marrying Joseph” comment. Love your vlogs too. Sending you much appreciation.💙

    Love the mirror above the fireplace! Also the seven articles arranged there as well! Always use an odd number of things! 3 5 7 just like flowers in a vase! Caroline you are so charismatic! I always enjoy your videos! Thank you for being you!
