      They would be great decor to fill up some space in a bedroom. Stack them and put something on the top

    I love thrifting furniture and decor! There were several gorgeous pieces in this video. I especially loved the table with glass top and wood inserts that could be used as a kitchen island. Chef's kiss 🫶

    Omg the candy dispenser is SUCH a cute/cool find!!! I love finding old turned wood things, or handcarved wood. Also frames, I paint and they're EXPENSIVE new, so finding cool ones second hand is always a good day!

  • @pamelairvin3164
    @pamelairvin3164 Рік тому +5

    You are blessed to have such a variety of stores in your area. I presume you have a storage unit where you can keep the treasures you find for future use? Also...how are you cleaning the haze from the decanter? Maybe a future video on freshening up your glass finds?? Enjoy!!

    • @brendatomlinson
      @brendatomlinson Рік тому +1

      Hi 👋🏻 Not Kristen 😬 I know denture cleaning tablets can remove water scum from vases so they would likely work for the decanter.

    • @sadee1287
      @sadee1287 Рік тому +2

      Probably a good coffee descaler product would also work well to remove hard water haze from glass. Even vinegar, although you'd have to be careful with crystal. :)

  • @amandabecker642
    @amandabecker642 Рік тому +11

    I appreciate seeing thrifted items through your eyes, especially the furniture. Too often I look at a massive piece and think, How ugly! But you see potential. I’m slowly starting to learn how to do that through these kinds of videos. So thank you!

    Cannot tell you how much I wish I could take you thrifting with me (and keep as a friend afterwards!). I find thrift stores so overwhelming and either feel like I’m trying to imagine how to make everything beautiful/useful or see only junk. Hoping can hone my eye over time. For example that giant table you found - never would have imagined it as an island!

    Thank you for this video. Please do more. I find that one of the best things about buying at thrift stores is that most likely, no one else will ever have the same things you do. Unlike buying from a retail store. Thrifting makes you unique in the coolest ways. 😁

    You have so many places to choose from. I love thrifting. We don’t do it as much anymore. They don’t have too many nice thrift stores near me. I have passed a Habitat Re-store. And next time we go past and they are open we’re stopping. I don’t need anything. But I love to look. I do have a consignment store near me. Not that big. And I go there a lot. And I do buy a lot from there. I bought a little black stool shelf thing that has a drawer in it. I’m not sure where I’m going to put it. But I have a lot of black in my house. So it will go in here somewhere.
