    loved your haul! I wanted to share a HUGE answer to prayer. I am 62 and my husband became interim of a small area church Dec. 27. small congregation about 30 on a good Sunday, I have age related macular degeneration and have been having injections since 2016, and I have developed cataracts also. I am scheduled for cataracts surgery on the 2th of this month and again on the 22nd of next month. My eye doctor suggested an upgrade of the lenses they will insert, my lenses were covered if they were basic, but he said it wouldn;t correct the entire issue of astigmatism which is labeled as severe. My husband and I talked and the additional out of pocket cost to us was over 3,00.00. We decided to pray and leave it with the Lord, Sunday after church the deacons called a special meeting and the church are paying that cost for us!!!! My husband wept and we cannot express our gratitude to those sweet saints in the Lord! We just couldn;t afford that extra cost right now, and the folks there at church said they loved us and wanted me to be able to see better... I am truly humbled and blessed.

    Years ago when I was pregnant with my daughter, we lived in a rock house. It had mold. I was sick continually. Actually I was sick with pneumonia when I went into labor with my daughter. That was rough. I coughed and wheezed for 8 months after she was born. She was sick a lot too. We got the mold cleaned up and got a different heating system and I finally got well and stayed well. The doctor said I had asthma. I don't have it anymore. Mold is bad. I love all the things you hauled, especially the salt cellar.

    Get yourself a glass knob or a blue knob and glue it in the middle of the plate for the lid! That is what I did and looks so pretty and holds great! Just an ideal for you.

    Hey Kristen! At Walmart I purchased these rubber shoes for gardening. When finished I just hose them off and stand them up to drain! They're like a closed toe croc! Best shoes I've ever worn outside. I've had them for years and they still look new!
    Those pink shoes would look great with denim or khaki shorts. To me....too nice for the yard. Kristen, you are just the prettiest, sweetest UA-camr! Always so friendly and chatty. Love that about you! I hope you and your family feel better real soon. Prayers for you and your family. 🙏🩷🩷🩷🩷💙and ?. 😂🤣😂

    First, have you ever heard of onion poultices? You slice onion and simmer in a fry pan with water until the onion is pearlized, then place on two hand towels and fold them over like a burrito. Place on your chest, being careful not to burn your skin. You want it hot, but not burning. Cover yourself with a blanket and lay down for an hour. This helps draw the fluid out of your lungs. You can warm up the onions again in a microwave and repeat. I wouldn’t use the onions more than twice, but you can repeat the process as often as needed. I’m a RN and did this on a friend who had double pneumonia all night one night and she was able to breathe with ease by morning. Now about the mold. Get professional help to remediate it! It is very serious and will continue to affect your health until it is resolved. Your soft furnishings, blankets etc.. can be tricky because mold spores permeate things. Don’t clean them yourself! Have someone help you. You’re in my prayers Kristen. I hope you’re feeling better very soon.

    The plate that you selected to go on the salt box Is in the Chinese Rice pattern. You will ind many pieces in the stores in China Towns, in major cities. Hold it up to the window. You will see the light shining through the rice that is scattered on the pattern.

  • @bonnie3170
    @bonnie3170 10 місяців тому +8

    Just had to let you know; I have a collection of the little dish you’re using as a cover for your salt crock. It is called Chinese rice grain blue white porcelain. If you hold it up to light you will see little rice eyes in the porcelain. It was made in Jingdezhen so it’s also called Jingdezhen porcelain. Love your decorating and hope your feeling better😌

    Hey lady, hope you feel better soon. Regarding your salt box for the kitchen, take it with you to dollar store and find a wooden lid that fits on it. Then you buy a cheap wooden knob, you know the once they used for drawers and paint it the same blue as your salt box design😉. The holder for the wall is a glove holder from an old dr's office, i would rather add it in the girls bathroom against the wall with tissues in it. Love your video. Much love from South Africa

    Hang the “tissue” box in the nursery and use it store wipes while baby’s still in diapers. Tip for catch all storage - keep it shallow so you can see what’s inside. If it’s too deep, someone will end up dumping it to find something and you’re back to a mess. Love the set of horse prints!

    I am off the scale allergic to mold and am so glad that you have identified the problem! I get headaches if I am near a mold source as well as sneezing and runny nose. You may want to consider getting a good quality HEPA air purifier for each bedroom to help minimize your exposure while you are getting the problem fixed. I knew a family who found there was mold in the wall of their master bedroom. They started investigating when the kids were sick all the time and the mother started losing her hearing. Great that you are addressing the problem!

One of my neighbors left hers behind when she moved out. I have it and it's great. I'm sorry about the 'mold' situation. Stay well and continued Blessings!

    for the sweet salt box.. Michaels sells little wood rounds in the craft section .. you can stain it brown and add a little white porcelain knob from Lowes and it will be good as new! Absolutely love the framed print of the girl drinking tea. It has such a sweet gentleness about it. You can always upgrade the frame later . That was a total score for $1.99!!!! I so get the toilet paper holder excitement!!! My toilet roller is so close to the toilet that you have to unroll some before you sit down.. haha!

      Kristin, just to add to this comment, the basket is for picking fruit and veggies as this person commented. It's called a bushel basket. So you feel it up and the amount is called a bushel...i.e. a bushel of strawberries, or a bushel of corn, etc.

We have been fighting the same head colds for a couple weeks now and it's no fun! Wear the pink garden shoes....they can be washed and it's all about comfort in the garden! Take care of that mold by a professional so it doesn't cause you further health issues. You might even check with your insurance company to see if it can be covered. Love to follow you!!! God bless!!

    @pamelab1175 10 місяців тому

    It looks like a market basket of some kind. I just bought a wood salt box. The lid flips around, but it’s attached. I wanted something that would close up too. And it came with a spoon. I would use them in the garden. They can be washed in the washing machine. Just don’t dry them in the dryer. Let them air dry. The tissue box would be fine to hang on a wall. Hey if you need it.i would definitely use it.
