Come Thrift Shopping With Me + Thrift Haul!

[@annicerader6021]

Your popcorn sweater turned out great

[@RoseryApparel]

Thanks! I’m in love with it 😍

[@ChiaraBettaglio]

The wavy hair makes you so fancy!!

[@70sMixTapes]

Leather straps to replace the plastic rope handles.

[@LisaAdams.75]

Yes! I was going to say macrame cord or make a macrame patterned cord. But leather would really set it off.

[@janeseemann2527]

Yes! Perfect choice!

[@karenstimson2683]

You could actually just cover the rope handles with leather or vinyl and not have to take them off.

[@creativemommaof3241]

I went Thrifting and bought this king size sheet in a pale yellow with little flowers on it and so thought of you. It is just your style LOL.

[@RoseryApparel]

Sounds adorable 😍

[@corinlaflamme7471]

I think Macrame straps would look amazing on your picnic basket 🧺☺️

[@josiesilva4077]

You literally read my mind! I was just about to post that same suggestion when I saw you're comment.

[@sarajeanhazeltinenesbitt5108]

My grandmother (in the US) still has those orange floral sheets! And I’m 90% my Easter dress when I was 12 was that Laura Ashley pattern in the most beautiful pink polished cotton with a ribbon border print.

[@melindabanning4497]

I really like thrift shopping too and yes I like watching what people find. I have started buying sheets to sew with because of you . Thanks for the wonderful idea.

[@gisellejones1139]

I think the rope handles are fine and sturdy for when that basket is full Cards is lovely

[@jackalopexjackalope9870]

That sweater is too perfect. Also Tasmania has the best thrift apparently?! Ugh such beautiful finds and you’ll for sure make amazing things!

[@amyofmelbourne]

I literally found that sheet (2 actually) in my grandparents caravan the other week. Must have been very popular!

[@melekkeskin4173]

8:55 i am from turkey and you can definitely find these patterns in old peoples' houses. I think it was very popular during the 70s and 80s and they're not just bedsheet patterns either; you can find tablecloths, couch covers and sometimes even curtains with the same type of pattern

[@Honeytreasures]

I’m so glad I’m not the only one that uses sheets for fabric. I go to my local shops and get brand new flat sheets for a few dollars and the patterns are always unique!

[@korinneguthrie]

Because of your thrifting videos, I found a beautiful white floral bedsheet that I'm going to make a summer dress from.

[@bridgetisadreamer]

Op shopping is such fun! Plz don't feel obliged to share the places you go to. Keeping your location private is so important!

[@judyvanooyen4183]

Your videos are GREAT!! I love thrifting too!! Have a collection of vintage linens!!

[@kathyjohnson1911]

I’m isolating with Covid so I’m watching all of your thrift store videos. Since I can’t go thrifting right now, this is keeping me entertained ❤

[@bludeetu321]

Hi! What a treasure trove of goodies you got on your spree. Among other things, I love the basket. A thought for the basket handles... if you can remove the rope without destroying it, you can cover the rope with fabric. If you use a layer of wadding then fabric, it will be more gentle on your hands when the basket is full and the fabric covering will look super cute. And the rope core will be very strong. Have fun sewing.

[@jacmary6580]

Hi Janelle You could change the rope out for a nice chain handle or even a nice gingham ribbon but if it was too difficult to remove you could twist some nice gold thread around the existing rope to jazz it up a bit xx

[@xc9890]

The basket is great, I suggest leather straps to replace the plastic rope handles.

[@AndiiHolen93]

I'm so glad that i found your KZbin channel, you're so creative and i love all of your thrifts and the clothes you make ❤️ so lovely!

[@RoseryApparel]

Aw thanks, that means a lot 🧡 x

[@greata80]

Aaaaaaaa! That sweater came out super cute!

[@SimplyDelilah]

I remember laura Ashley dresses! You are going to make it amazing! I don’t think I can pull off those fabrics like you do.

[@jennywren1596]

Love your hair❤️

[@RoseryApparel]

Thank you 😄

[@tracyhoffman1901]

Love your new haircut!!! The rose pattern on the one sheet reminds me of an old Laura Ashley Country Roses pattern from the 80’s. The picnic basket is great; I would change the handles to leather straps.

[@RoseryApparel]

Ah maybe that’s why I love it soo much 😍

[@tracyhoffman1901]

@@RoseryApparel that was my bedding for years❤️

[@moyralouise7123]

Hi from Queensland 🙋‍♀️ I love op shopping too and head straight to the sewing section too 😊

[@sarianneroodenburg2092]

Your hair was really nice today,. I loved te blue/white with floral print fabric! Would make such a fun summerdress!

[@GagaKnits]

Your cardigan looks great. All those bobbles. You have more patience than me. Perhaps you could make macrame handles for your picnic basket as they would flop down out of the way. The blue and white check bedding with the flowers on it, was my favourite. X

[@ashextraordinaire]

That Laura Ashley pattern... so many memories of being a child in the 80s. Do make it in casual cotton fabric. That's how we wore them!

I love the final look of the pop corn cardigan

[@bridgetwhite5547]

Love the popcorn cardigan. Really enjoyed see your thrift shopping and hearing your plans. Thanks😊

[@melodine707]

Wish we had Tip Shops in the US. Keeping such treasures out of the landfill is a no brainer.

[@carolem.obrien8991]

Wow, thank you, you have open my eyes with thrift shopping, never tough about looking for materials and patterns in those shops..... On my way I go, thank you for your ideas, you are really inspiring....

[@designerpolly]

Recently I bought a pile of vintage sheets for my students to use for making dolls and I have that print in the pile. We are close neighbours as I am just over the water in New Zealand. I made that mccalls dress back in the 80s!!!

[@ClareAF]

So many treasures at op shops! I have collected so many vintage patterns and fabrics. Only problem is that I am so scared to cut into the fabric, because I know I can never replace it! 🙈

[@RoseryApparel]

It’s scary for sure! But soo worth it 😍

[@uniquewhimsy622]

There will always be more beautiful fabric.

[@vegemitegirl1971]

At 5:35 you have some light brown fabric with darker brown floral things on. I recently bought that exact fabric here in rural SA and made long pj pants for myself. I have enough leftover to make a matching top. I'm 181cm tall and sew because it's near impossible to find legs and sleeves long enough.

[@judyrobinson5044]

I TOTALLY love your thrift shopping trips. Its mind boggling how much fabric you find. I RARELY find that much and additionally here in Oregon USA, although we have lots of GoodWills and plenty of smaller shops, fabric is not nearly as plentiful. Or if it is, so much of it is junk, sadly. So you are really lucky to find so many quality cottons. BUT--one recent trip yielded an adorable ditsy print top --yes, with puff ;sleeves that were flocked at the bottom, and gathered at the top! Thought of you! Love that top!

[@jeanetteposecznick2034]

My Mom sewed me a dress similar to the Laura Ashley pattern style back in the 80s for a college formal! It was velvet! ❤

[@janeseemann2527]

How beautiful!

[@CreateAndCurate]

You have such a good eye for fabrics and patterns, I wish our charity shops had these kinds of gems!

[@charlismith4838]

Janelle your hair is looking so cute at the moment!

[@susanjenningsjones]

Your Op shops look great. In the UK our bedding section in charity shops are quite small and cost anywhere £3-£8 for a duvet cover. I’ve not seen any nice vintage floral as yet.

[@rynb4868]

love the popcorn cardigan!

[@lisamcclintock219]

I’m so into baskets right now too, i want to find one so I can collect my veggies from my garden. I love the patterns you bought also, I have bought some myself lately and will definitely go thrifting for them and vintage buttons when we are in less of a lockdown 😁 love your videos ! You inspire me to challenge myself with sewing because your videos are so easy to follow.

[@777Iwish]

Thankyou, your op shop pics are great

[@AngelDivinity111]

That gold rose bedsheet would be great for the Laura Ashley pattern! Cant wait to see that vid!

[@CreateWithCrystal]

I love that quilted looking blanket!

[@conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509]

Great thrift haul. Thanks for sharing!

[@marymcfarland2089]

I grew up with that gold rose floral sheet in the US. Memories of my mother and her friends.

[@btfielden85]

That mustard flower print was one my grandmother had here in Canada so I'm pretty sure it was world wide. Love all your videos. ❤

[@annebator950]

Love your hair! Love that basket! I may have tried to outbid you on it. But I’m in the United States so you’re safe. That was very satisfying and you have inspired me to thrift more. I have actually found a few gems, a basket included. I’m addicted to them!

[@carolhudak3173]

Ditto on the popcorn sweater! It is so cute on you and the colr is perfect!

[@sekaihatsu]

Great shopping trip! I think you could macrame the handles into something you like. You're sweater turned out great too!

[@AT-fi7tz]

I actually can't believe you made that cardigan 👏 ❤ its amazing! Great video. You found some brilliant patterns and fabric. I've been buying bedsheets from the charity shops here in the UK too!

[@alphie333]

It’s wild it’s already winter in the Southern Hemisphere, especially considering I had snow on the ground about a week ago here in the northern hemisphere! I’m not even *that* far north lol! Great finds! You’ve inspired me to try to go thrifting tomorrow!

[@PatMcFadyenGrowingGradeByGrade]

What successful thrifting trip! I'm getting my courage up to try some again here in the US. Your hair is so lovely!

[@nathaliepalladino4128]

Hi Janelle! Great shopping trip! I think the floral fabric would be great in the Laura Ashley pattern. My daughter (also named Janelle) and I would get matching LA dresses to go to her yearly Mother’s Day Girl Scout tea! I loved it so much and that was 30 years ago😂Thank you so much for all of the joy! I am going to watch this episode again.

[@elaineparker6986]

Yes we get the vintage sheet you do here in the uk. Your OP shops are so much nicer than ours.

[@SuriyaMei]

Oooh that’s basket is so cool! I’ve never seen anything like that before. I personally really like the rope handles? Great thrift adventure! Thanks for taking us along! 💕

[@sharonbrinders1224]

Love your beautiful finds...can't wait to see your next projects. ..aaahhh wish we had such cool op shops ...just adore that basket...really enjoyed shopping with you...remain blessed xxx

[@BrightAsAButton]

Great video. I needed a bit of a boost this morning, thank you. Op shopping is always an adventure, especially when on holidays. I think I've brought half of Tasmania's secondhand goods and fabrics home to Victoria with me over the years LOL Wherever I go, I always look for Op Shops. I hope to run sewing classes from home (or one of the fabric shops) this year. I'm thinking I'll do projects lie make a shopping bag or lined tote, simple toys etc so that people can take an item home with them from the classes. I've been collecting sewing machines from Op Shops too, straight sewing and overlockers (sergers). I am endlessly inspired by all you young women making a living from doing something you love and sharing it all online, such a brilliant career option! Thanks Janelle.

[@RoseryApparel]

Oh what a lovely idea! So many people are wanting to learn how to sew right now so I’m sure it will be very successful! All the best with it x

[@carjen121]

Love those pattern beautiful colors👏🏼

[@jadetotten8706]

I think that basket would look stunning with some pretty pink satin ribbons for the handles. Lots of love from New York ❤️

[@RoseryApparel]

That would be soo cute!

[@dianadaniel3441]

I actually had the McCall's vintage pattern that I bought in the early 80's! Her patterns were so popular.

[@lindsaycate2429]

That blue gingham with the flower clusters is a DREAM!!🤩😍 I can’t wait to see what set you include it in, maybe it will be in one I’ve been saving for!🥰 Your thrift with me videos are some of my favorite. The cardigan turned out perfect, great job! Also, I have a corduroy knee length style skirt that I got on a really good sale, but it’s a size too big. It has front and back pockets similar to a denim skirt/pants. Do you have any tips for where to take it in without making the pockets look off center?

[@monicasmadeinmaine1114]

Love the sweater. As far as the ropes go, get soft cotton meant for macrame. It comes in all widths. You could measure the diameter of the originals for reference.

[@annebrown3538]

Back in the 80s, I used to look at the children’s section in Laura Ashley, I used to love their children’s dungarees, then I would sew a similar pair for my daughter x

[@emilyengeman8431]

Omg love your hair! And obsessed with the cardi 😍 dying to see you make the Laura Ashley pattern!

[@Em-bv7oo]

That blue gingham bedsheet is lovely.

[@smmiller5]

I wish you’d share your modified cardigan pattern! The popcorn style is so cute

[@deannajohnson3933]

I totally understand leaving nice fabrics where they are. They might be pretty, but not your specific style. I love shopping.

[@sophieofnorwich8281]

I could watch these videos all day! So relaxing and I love seeing what you do behind the scenes. I hope your business continues to go from strength to strength, you deserve every success. 🧡

[@RoseryApparel]

Thank you! That really means a lot 🧡

[@FamilyHomeProject]

Oh wow such a good haul 👌 I love thrifting x

[@sarahhardy8649]

I think that McCall pattern was the one I used for my bridesmaids. The young ones had lemon broiderie anglais skirts, and the two oldest had lemon coloured lace added on top of the bodice. They looked lovely.

[@tinao8676]

Great video! Laura Ashley pattern definitely an 80's style, looks exactly like my "going away" dress when I got married in 1984. I love the basket too. Perhaps some leather strap handles? Or rustic rope handles, from a marine shop perhaps.

[@anitajonsson4379]

You could wrap the cord in ribbon. It would make it look even more romantic and whimsical.

[@michelleliquoriross3790]

Great job on the cardigan! Love thrifting myself!

[@melissaockey1346]

Love the handles!!!!!! Hope u find the blouses again😀

[@ohwhatadiy]

Love your thrift trips. You find so much good stuff!!!

[@TheMaryWriter]

You could try square knot macrame around the rope handles of the basket in a lighter color that matches the weave in the basket, or some other type of macrame knot.

[@hawthorngrove3629]

I was op shopping in Burnie today. I picked up quite a few pillowcases with similar tones to sew some clothing or accessories for my granddaughter.

[@giftedafflicted]

Such pretty vintage finds and your hair looks gorgeous too

[@YouHaveAGoodPoint]

Yes I’m in the USA in Pennsylvania and my grandmother had that floral print.

[@thesewinggarden7311]

Love this video, as usual. All your finds were so sweet! I can see why you love op shopping in your area. The basket is so special. You can stitch up the slits in the bright pink skirt to see if you like how it fits before you make your pattern. I think it should fit just fine! Congrats on your beautiful sweater too!

[@kathypatterson9454]

That pink and purple in the 2nd store!!!!!

[@LaurieEggleston37]

Thank you for another great video! I was thinking - before you asked - that leather straps with silver buckles would be fun on that basket! Your choices were wonderful and I love them all!

[@elsa8577]

Love ❤️ your cardigan 👍🏼great job

[@beaveloso3682]

That floral pattern is still super common here in Brazil! Here at home we have a bunch in many different colors since their quality is amazing, I have some that are more than 10 years old and still feel brand new

[@scoobyproof]

The basket is perfect as is. I would just use some oil base soap cleaner for wood to give it a refresh.

[@MandaJayne]

Great finds! Love the basket! Maybe you could macrame some new handles for it. I think that would really suit the vibe of it. 😊

[@sarahbewley362]

I am a op shopper in Newark NJ. I like silk scarves and vintage clothing !!

[@larag1764]

The mustard floral sheet from the tip shop looks familiar to me - I think my Grandma had same in the 70s ? Some great buys ! Hi from northern NSW xx

[@monicas2269]

I've got that nightdress pattern, I bought it new probably in the early 70's

[@saamraa050]

You can add big wooden beads in basket's handles

[@jocelyngleave946]

Some real steals there! Absolutely love the shirt you've picked up, looks similar to the sew over it bonnie blouse, but without the waist detail 😊

[@mariadimaki5742]

really love what you do, it's sad I'm sooo far from where you live,would like a dress.Congrats!🌼❤️

[@myfanwyedwards1580]

I have the matching pillowcases for the flower bedding. I'm in Wales and have been looking for the bed cover for ages.

[@antoinetterussell6546]

You popcorn sweater came out so beautiful! Thank you for another inspirational video!

[@SongbirdCollageArts]

Such awesome finds! Cant wait to see what you make out of the daisy gingham! I see a possible pinafore in your future :)

[@JustLikeSara]

Can't wait to see you sew those patterns! They look super pretty!

[@patbuegeler7770]

Love your popcorn sweater. The picnic basket is great. That was a great find. I would like to find something like that. Your op shop finds were very nice.

[@robynloveschocolate]

Another lovely video! Here in Ontario Canada we are in lockdown again so I miss going thrifting! For the basket maybe you could sew some fabric straps with a fabric that matches the vintage vibe? Or get some leather cording? 😊
