    The red and white pillow actually makes me think of summer- Memorial Day, July 4th, and a summer picnic blanket come to mind.

    The white azalea bush brought back a memory. When I was 11 we moved to a new house. In the front were lots of red azalea bushes a one little white one. I called it mine and loved watching it get bigger each year.

    Thrifting Is one of my hobby’s too.
    Last year I lost 24 lbs, I donated all my clothes,and started to thrift my new size clothing, I think my closet is now 75% thrifted. I really don’t see much I like in the regular stores, but thrifting you can find great labels, and every article of clothing is different from the other.. I added up my receipts, and I thrifted a whole season of clothes and accessories for $75, and the brands are Ralph Lauren, Loft, and some designer labels. I pay between $3.50-$4.99 each piece, you just can’t beat it. It takes patience, sometimes I walk out with nothing, and sometimes I find a true gem.
    I love your thrifting videos Hillary, and you also always do so well when you thrift… I always love what you find❤😊 loved all your recent finds

      That’s what I love about thrifting , name brand for cheap, I was told once I would not accept hand me down clothes because I buy name brand & I look high class but they had no idea I had paid 5$ for everything I was wearing 😂

    I have been on the hunt for a rolled bolster pillow ever since I watched a decorator’s home tour. He had them on the cracks of the cushions on his sofa so that “everyone gets an armrest”. MIND BLOWN! I have a long sofa with two cushions (so only one crack😢) but I’m still going to get one for when I sit at the end.🙌🏻

    well, had NO idea about the sofa pad! Thank you for that tidbit, I will be looking into those. I love azaleas, I miss being able to grow them. I am from back east and always had them in the yard. I moved and cannot grow them here. I had to laugh about bringing in the flowers from the garden. I am now terrified to do so! MANY years ago I taught kindergarten. One student brought in gorgeous flowers from his yard for me and I put them out on my desk. Came in the next morning....there were HUNDREDS of praying mantis babies!!!! It was like a horror show but with really cute little praying mantis babies looking at you. Ever since then, terrified to bring in flowers!! LOL. Thanks for the great tips!

    I cannot believe your thrift haul. Awesome! You know where that bolster would look good? In my bedroom, lol. And that Ralph Lauren bag.....I would stuff that sucker with something and decorate with it, lol. What a find. Like that Pendleton skirt you scored a few years back. Honestly, you got good prices. Hollie over on Simply Lake and Lace was talking this morning about how high thrift stores are now! Our's certainly are! She said she goes to antique stores and gets items just slightly higher than thrift shops. And, looking at the prices, she is right! I haven't been thrifting in forever. I just don't buy, I have donated so much stuff that has been a load off my mind and heart to Salvation Army. Gosh, that table is awesome. It would look good down here in Texas too!!! Hilary, thank you for always having a video that makes my day. It includes so much and is heartwarming. xoxDeb

    Thrifting isn't what it used to be with pricing, but it can still be so worth it and you always find the coolest stuff! Our town had a town wide yard sale, last month, and we managed to get a few things I flipped for. One specifically made me think of you. It's a barometer that hangs on the wall and has a ship on the water art at the top of it that has the colonial flag on it. I didn't even realize it was the colonial flag until we got it home and it catches my eye whenever I walk in or out of my living room. ❤
