It’s not called junk stores they are called thrift stores or used items … I consider them treasure stores as you never know what treasures you will find! 😊I am also over words all over EVERYTHING. I still have some items with words but dang it why do we have to spell it out. It’s a feeling not a word salad. So thankful for your videos

The brown thing is an old Electrical insulator that went to the wood electric poles. It came out adorable. Love the painting, also the lamps. The tin vase is perfect glad you did not paint it. Popped everything metal and made it work and look rich. I am going to tomorrow to see what I can find. Peace!

This version of "Dark Academia" is just a re-run from when we were decorating our homes in "Country Style" in the 1980s. If you're only doing this for autumn and Halloween, please don't spend a lot. You'll outgrow the style quickly. ❤

I personally think your style should represent what you like and who you are, maybe studying the time period that it is based off of helps to look make it look more authentic, not just for the novelty of it, when you have a passion for it, you can feel the love in it, not just for the looks.

The music and the style of decor in this one is like the Little House episode where Laura is messing around in this old mans mansion of a house thats gone dilapidated when he walks in on her! She befriends him and they clean up the mansion in hopes that his actress wife comes back to him… as he tells laura that she left him for a life in the city where she could do her acting. Well laura eventually finds out that actually his wife is dead. The old man knew it but didnt wanna face the reality of it. Then laura leads him to Jesus🩷 Well the old mansion was decorated like this and he had an old music box playing music just like the music you chose for your video! Ok my story time is over now haha😂 Loved the decor and the video🩷 You did a great job making that picture match those curtains!

We too have big elephant in the room a.k.a. the hot water heater. I wish I could figure out a way to hide it. Everything turned out really cute.
