Kristen! Meant to tell ya! I am right now using your technique and exact Ben M simply white color in my dining room/kitchen areas. Been priming for a week! The walls above the wainscoting and wall framing were Ben M “amazing Gray” I did them 8 yrs ago and touched up every so often. Everyone loved the color but I absolutely loved how your little area came out I HAD to try it! I’m still prepping and priming. I want to do it right. I’m taking my time but the space in here is also quite large so it’s taking a bit more time & effort. I can only hope it looks anything remotely similar to yours! I’ll let ya know how final results are! Thx for the ideas and helping me to get motivated here !!😘
There’s something about Kristen that makes her unique and one of a kind. She has this radiant sunshine aura that surrounds her, a positive attitude, caring, honest & outgoing personality 🤍🌸 I love how pure and sweet she is 🩵
Wow - you have great thrift stores in your area with very reasonable pricing. We have a few stores in our town but prices are high considering they are donated used items. I saw a lot of beautiful pieces in your shopping day.
The picture at the very end, after the lamp shades is a Thomas Kinkade- "A Peaceful Retreat". I have it on canvas 47"x31". Thanks for sharing your wonderful finds!
That second dresser with the keyholes in the drawers has been on my most wanted list for ten years and they’re always $300+ at all my shops. Where are you finding these deals?!?
I no longer have my piano, but l have my antique 1917 round piano stool as seen here. It is used, wth a thrifted glass tray to protect it, as a plant stand. Looks wonderful in my living room
I love the way you do shopping & DIY style interior design home .so amazing ..I have so many idea to do it my home too..thank you so much Kristen for sharing your talent ..I love it so much . So intelligence woman ❤❤❤
I love san clemente it's my famies favorite beach and great shops and even at Dana point as well , I haven't been there maybe a year or 2 since my dad passed it's 3 year's since he passed san clemente and Dana point was his favorite places to be
That storage piece for $30 was incredible! I hope you snatched that up! I would totally put a couple of baskets in there to hide all the gloves and hats lol
Hello!! I was wondering where you put the cat litter boxes and how you present/hide them. I am a new viewer and slowly catching up on your previous videos, so sorry if this is already in another video!
What do you think about thrifting big paintings the vintage ones I sometimes find and they tend to be huge with nice frames but I get overwhelmed with the color palette 😂
BTW: You need to tune a piano every time it is moved. There is a chance that it isn't in tune in the thrift store even though it may sound like it is to someone who may not have a musical background.
Omg you’re so lucky to have access to these types of thrifts. We don’t have that much choice here in France. It’s most frequently way to old and dated, no diy could make it work
By doing research and by learning brands, styles, time periods and the style of glass. There are articles on Google you can read and videos on YT. Usually lead glass has either a sticker if you can find it, or it is usually cut glass, that is heavy for its size, and very luminous with a bit of a iridescent shine to it.
There are some fabulous piece's in this video, Kristen. Did you purchase anything, please? I understand if you didn't, you must be getting married soon to Kristen. 😊
That dresser that “didn’t have dovetails” was worth buying, it was still made of wood, and has made it this far in its life, so it’s pretty sturdy. Besides, how many times are you going to open and close those drawers. Sometimes being a snob works against you.
“How many times are you going to open and close those drawers” ummm everyday? It’s a dresser lol. Tons of things have “made it this far in life” but still not great quality
No thrift, second-hand, or antique store within 50 miles of me has prices that good. I've actually lost interest in thrifting because I kept seeing such ridiculous prices (hundreds) for total pieces of crap. Broken drawers, ink stained tops, etc. No ma'am. I don't mind refreshing something or doing minor repairs but not for something that costs $300. Especially at Good Will. They literally got that stuff for free. Now they want to join in on inflation? Come on!
Hy Kristen I'm Brazilian, I wanted to make a video about thrift stores, and I thought about using your video as the background Do you mind if I use your video in the background and leave the credit and your @?

Oh my goodness, I loved that second store. The thrift stores in my little town have hardly any home goods.
Love going virtual thrifting from across the country so I don't have to spend money, bother my truck-owning friends, or find space in my home. ♥
Cherrywood is great. Do not change it! 😆
I can’t wait until my closing date 12/31!! I’m going thrifting first thing!
A little 💚 with envy of some of the great furniture in this video!
Loved so many of those!!! I would have bought that small rocking chair 😍 Wish it was a store I was able to get to!

Love this content! What was the name of the last thrift store you went to in this video?
That stool and those chests! ❤
I love all the pieces
@5:40 I loved these! 🥰
Did you end up buying anything?
BTW: You need to tune a piano every time it is moved. There is a chance that it isn't in tune in the thrift store even though it may sound like it is to someone who may not have a musical background.
oh wow!! great to know! thank you!
Loved the whole collection, thrift store in my vibe❤
Omg you’re so lucky to have access to these types of thrifts. We don’t have that much choice here in France. It’s most frequently way to old and dated, no diy could make it work
Really?? I would have thought France has all the best finds!
Luv u Kristen❤❤, n bestest wishes always for u frm Mumbai, India❤
I love thrifting
Ooohhh fun video!!! ❤
looks interesting, what city, what state in US?
Take that piano home! 😊
Buying thrifted glassware or any kitchen item makes me nervous. Is there a way to know if they are lead-free?
By doing research and by learning brands, styles, time periods and the style of glass. There are articles on Google you can read and videos on YT. Usually lead glass has either a sticker if you can find it, or it is usually cut glass, that is heavy for its size, and very luminous with a bit of a iridescent shine to it.
Great sharing , let's do it again.
Heyy lol i luv ur vids u slay kristen
There are some fabulous piece's in this video, Kristen. Did you purchase anything, please?
I understand if you didn't, you must be getting married soon to Kristen. 😊
Just came back from NH thrifting. I wish I had a truck!
Hahaha I felt the same way!
@@KristenMcGowanhaha right!? Love thrifting !!❤
very interesting, thank you. 🙂x
how can you tell if an item is haunted?
That dresser that “didn’t have dovetails” was worth buying, it was still made of wood, and has made it this far in its life, so it’s pretty sturdy. Besides, how many times are you going to open and close those drawers. Sometimes being a snob works against you.
“How many times are you going to open and close those drawers” ummm everyday? It’s a dresser lol. Tons of things have “made it this far in life” but still not great quality
You should go to dunelm
What did you buy?
Can’t believe the prices in that thrift store.
Can these items from thrift store bring bugs and pests to our home?
Very rarely. When you look at them you need to search for evidence of bugs or pests first.
Are you worried about the lead in dishes? Kinda scares me 😅
Haul?? ❤

Canadian pronunciation of San Clemente - hahaha

Watch out for fleas , bedbugs & cockroaches !
Obviously but hat is rare.
@@vaderladyl hat ?
That, not hat@@bernadettenanibush4578
Mice, wear gloves. No the mice don't, You need to!
I have a better way but its going to the grave with me. This generation hurts itself more because of over sharing on social media.
I know, right. I keep my places to myself.
