You have inspired me to go on a thrift hunt for a lamp flip like yours!!! Thank you for sharing!! I’m a new subscriber and I am so glad I found your channel! Your voice is soothing to listen to as well! 💗
OMGsh, this video popped into my feed this evening, and I'm catching up on your channel so had to watch - SO glad I did!! I've been pricing wooden trellis for a big planter box and it's looking like a minimum of $60 to get the set up I want from Home Depot et al. Then I saw this video and that wooden privacy screen and BINGO!!! That would be absolutely perfect, taken apart to make four sections out of it!!! I'm now on the hunt for something similar!!! Thanks!!
Yeees, I plan to do that soon 🙂 I was going to it on this one actually but after opening it I discovered this print was too brittle and thin to put it on
I just realized we’re all buying perfectly good looking lamps from goodwill so we can paint them to rub dirt on them to make them look like we bought them from the thrift store- but somehow we all think it looks amazing 😂😂
Goo Gone is made to remove things stuck with self adhesive like most stickers these days. Perhaps those that were more difficult to remove were stuck on with something different such as glue or something that needed to be wet first like postage stamps from days gone by.
Next time you need to clean a frame with composition ( the fancy stuff ) , use a toothbrush and some denatured alcohol in small areas at a time, then dry with a lint free rag.
I was skeptical about removing the glass, yet it made such a difference. I will need to remember to think about that as an option when looking at frames/prints.
The comment from above regarding changing the type glass on your print is right on the button. You could possibly consider the importance of the print to you. It is exciting to see a new UA-camr. You have a lot to share and I look forward to new videos to come! Sherry from Alabama.
Great channel I’m new here really enjoying it! Hello from Canada! Love how that lamp turned out I went to thought to rub dirt on it, and it looked fantastic! I wonder if coffee grounds would have worked?!
Hi, neighbor to the north 👋🏼 ☺️ Yes coffee grounds work well too. It's a little warmer color than soil but not so orangey as clay. Thanks for watching!
I almost always remove the glass from artwork...the glare drives me crazy and so much easier to see the art with it removed. If I'm buying a cheap piece of artwork at the thrift store...I don't want to have to go out and purchase a piece of non-reflecting glass. That would jack up the price...I want the low price.
@@TashaatHome Second hand stores are around but usually they sell clothing. They're not popular...but some with low income will use them. I would say that IKEA & JYSK are the ones we hv on the cheaper side.
You should have a “where’s Waldo (Curry)” game in your videos🤣 I really love when Insee him!
Haha nice idea 😉
Amazing how much better many art pieces look without the glass! 🤯
I totally agree!

The art print in the beginning of the video in the old frame ~ So good 🙌🥰❤love it!!
Try replacing the glass with non-reflecting glass....makes a huge difference! ❤
Great idea! That occurred to me too and I will look into how much it costs. 😊
Beautiful mirror! So glad to have found your channel. I like rescued treasures too. Saving things from the landfill is a lovely thing to do.
Thanks so much! 😊

Ooh nice idea 💡 I hope you do find one in the near future and can use it! Sounds like it would work 🙂
The pumpkin was my favourite, I will be buying some of the mat spray to use on some of my shiny things that I want to tone down. Great idea.
Loved all of these projects!! So fun to watch how you reconfigure things. Great job!!
Thanks so much!
You have definitely inspired my creativity and thrift mode!!
Your pumpkin came from the Dollar Store. I have several. Good idea with the spray.
😂 Oh boy so I guess I didn't save any at Goodwill on that one... Oh well! Was it from this year or a previous year?
Another really good thrift find with that mirror. Btw, I think the lamp turned out nice!
Thank you! 😊
It is a gorgeous mirror now. Love your cat. Like what you did with the lamp.
Thank you! 😊 That mirror was a lot of work but worth it for the price for sure!
If you can save the print you can paint it varnish 2-3 times. I do this on cavas and oil paintings.
Putting mod podge on a picture makes it look more like a painting. 💞
Yeees, I plan to do that soon 🙂 I was going to it on this one actually but after opening it I discovered this print was too brittle and thin to put it on
Love the mirror and the vignette with the lamp❤
Thank you!
The lamp looks AWESOME! i love it!
Love the print, you rescued!!
Thanks, Connie!
Very nice job on the lamp.
I just realized we’re all buying perfectly good looking lamps from goodwill so we can paint them to rub dirt on them to make them look like we bought them from the thrift store- but somehow we all think it looks amazing 😂😂
😂 when you put it that way...
@@TashaatHome but it does look amazing for some reason- I can’t pretend it doesn’t lol 😊
❤ the mirror!
Great price for t mirror

Good point! I don't know, but it definitely took a lot of effort 😂
Your hallway I would have loved the hammered brass or copper.
Your gold framed mirror was a find! It’d be gorgeous painted black too❤
Agreed!
Next time you need to clean a frame with composition ( the fancy stuff ) , use a toothbrush and some denatured alcohol in small areas at a time, then dry with a lint free rag.
Thanks, great idea 🙂
Hand sanitizer works, too
Thanks for sharing your projects! I love to thrift! New subscriber here!
Welcome!! My channel is brand new so you're joining at a great time 😊 Many more to come 👍🏻
You can put a coat of mod podge on your picture to protect it. 💞
Love the lamp! I’ve been doing a few myself but I’m never quite satisfied with them lol!
I understand, I always feel that way!
Great job on the lamp!
Thank you! 😊
Great idea removing the glass from those prints.

I'm considering it for that piece since the paper is admittedly old and pretty dry. Thank you for your comments and welcome to the channel!

That has been my experience so far too. While non reflective glass would be nice, I think I'm taking the low cost road for now and just removing it 😉
Have you considered using coffee grounds instead of soil?
Yes! It works great too and has a nice color. A little warmer than soil but not so orangey as clay. I tried it on something a while back ☺
@@TashaatHometasha u gorgeous
Beautiful miror
Thank you! I was grateful to find it even though it needed cleaning. Thanks for watching ☺️
Can you share where you got your rug for where are you showing the print where you remove the glass? It is gorgeous! thanks so much
It's this one! +Loloi Olive/Charcoal Rug (living room): amzn.to/3tium8H
@@TashaatHome thanks so much, I appreciate it!
❤!
Great price for the mirror!!
I think so too! Thanks 😊
Just wondering what is the name/location of the first goodwill in this video?
This was the goodwill in North Durham on roxboro road 😊
The print is not from the 70s. It's from late 50s early 60s.
Oh really? Wow!
Oil painting or canvas painting should not have glass on it! Typically that is for water color paintings 🖼️
She had a Print ! That needs to go under glass
Really old? I was born in 1949! Hahahaha
😅 The standard for old isn't the same for objects and people!
We don't hv thrift shops in most of Europe...
Interesting! Do you have anything similar like consignment or other secondhand shops?

We have charity shops in the UK lots of them ,they sell all the stuff 😂Also car boot sales and garage sales and vintage shops 😊
