Dear Gittemary, sometimes I hate playing your videos in the “background” because they are just so darn good that I have to stop and look at everything. I end up getting nothing done and watching your videos instead-very inspiring home decor ideas. I love your decor style and approach for acquiring. Thanks for the captivating content. 🥰

you should put a large basket in the basement next to the stairs so you can throw your dirty laundry in the basket, you can immediately take the basket to the washing machine (you won't have to pick it all up from the floor)

Hi Gittermary! You don't need to remove the panels to check for moisture. Most contractors have tools that can sense moisture without tearing anything out. You could probably even borrow or rent one!

We diy a lot of things around our house. FB market place has been a life save for furnishing our son's room before his arrive in July (my husband bragged that I got his crib, dresser, electric swing, some clothes, his bath bassin, bassinet, and more odds and ends for free, which would have cost us hundreds otherwise). If molly needs more rugs to get around go by the local carpet store. My husband re did the lining in his truck for free just by going by one and asking if they had scraps. They were more than happy to give it to him for free because it would have cost them money to throw it away. I've also seen people turn wood pallets into vertical garden space by turning them on their sides, which I think would look great as a kitchen herb garden, or shelving for items as well. Good luck!

Omg the orange mirror would go so well with the painted wall in your office (I paused the video to comment so maybe I am forshadowing) And on that little serving cart there should be a martini glas:) not that you have to put it there just the vibe I got. Super cool room btw!

You can pulp fruit and put it in an icecream maker for a nice refreshing sorbet. Always handy to have! I bought some second hand tapestry fabric samples and cut up my nans old curtains to make some lovely velvet/tapestry cushions. You could save the curtain bottom and make some matching cushions.

I've been planning on going thrifting and just havent gotten the time lately. These vlogs always spark that want again. I also love how you have everything on display even your pantry. If I put things out of site I forget them or I just dont use them the way I normally would so I love finding aesthetic ways to have normal necessary things on display

9:15 - “gasket”… that’s the name for the little rubber thing that seals the jar lids on and prevents leaking. Geez… I’m just in complete awe of the excellent thrift stores in your town. Such amazing finds!! And in the tried and true treasures department… I just love the old table from your previous kitchen. That giant slab of wood is so unique. 12:45 - love that retro looking radio!! Very charming!! I could go on and on about all the great things that you are doing, finding, and creating, but I’ll stop here and just say that I love this video. Your vlogs are always so positive and upbeat. Thanks, Gittemary, for spreading le joie de vivre!! 💦🌎Ⓜary💕

Love your vlog! Not sure if you already know - I recently learnt glasswares that were produced before 1970s may have a substantial amount of lead in it. The lead leaks if you use them for food, especially if you have liquid and the the worst is the liquid is acidic. The amount of lead depend on the glass type. Crystal is the worst but regular glasses made around the same time can have lead as well. I dont really have enough knowledge to give advice whether or not we should use them for food, and whether this kind of glass was made worldwide. Just dropping this here and hope someone else can give more comments.

I think a biscuit colour on the back wall in the games room would look excellent rather than the red colour... it would soften it and look good with the other red on the opposite side. Hope you don't mind me offering this option... its looking good so far!

Everything is coming along great! You got some good deals on those jars. I had to google the exchange rate to dollars, but those were super cheap! Good find! I'm loving the color coordinated books and random decor on the shelves in the game room. I think that's one of my favorite spaces I've seen in your house so far. Random question... do you think you guys would ever do a video of a D&D session?? I would love to see that!! :)
