Welcome to a week of giving thrift shops a second chance. This week we take a trip to Ringe where I haven't been thrifting for years, to see if the shops will offer a bit more luck than they've done in the past. I also do some well nedded autumn garden work, hang up a light chain and enjoy the beautiful autumn weather we've been pleased with recently. I hope you enjoy another video from me.

Elise, I am a 71-year-old fan and an avid hand stitcher for most of my life. I have had people say to me many times " Why do you still stitch? They are just going to end up in the 2nd hand stores". I just answer that it is fine, and I hope they bring someone joy. A few years ago, I stumbled across your channel and there you were bringing home hand sewn pillows, and you made me smile. Today it is other pieces that someone stitched in another country bringing you joy. Keep thrifting young lady and bring home our treasures. We thank you.

Hi 71, I'm 61 ... And love Elise (watching since she was 19) and love her needlework finds too. XoXo.

Dear Elise🌺: I'm Laura and I would like to write you a few words. I will use some translator since I haven't spoken English in years and maybe my English is not perfect (I'm from Spain). I look forward to your videos because it relaxes me to see so much sensitivity and beauty in the images, as well as sincerity about your life. I don't know how some people are so intransigent (saying they do it to protect you) about your love life. I, as a 30-year-old woman, will tell you to try to ignore them and that it is great that you are excited again, it shows in your videos and on your face that you are excited and happy. Go ahead, it's your life and you only enjoy living it. Fall in love as many times as you need. Greetings and a big hug from Spain. ❤😊

The needlework is called a SAMPLER. It showed off the work of the sewer. There was embroidery & the squared off is called NEEDLEPOINT.

[@kimberleepearson3269]

I'm sorry to hear about your boyfriend's loss. Times like these are some of the hardest life throws at us, but I'm sure you are a great comfort to each other. And thank you for all the time and effort you put into the videos you share. They are always wonderful and greatly appreciated. Please keep the brocade and velvet jacket, it is so you!

[@wandaraney8342]

I just love it when you travel around the little towns around where you live The countryside and the buildings are so beautiful.I wish I could visit and paint all I see. I just did my DNA and found that I am 45 % Swedish and Danish the other 55% Scottish, what a surprise for me at the age of 80....I was adopted at birth and never felt at home deep in the heart of Texas.

[@TammieWardArt]

Here is a gardening suggestion since you have a lot of cardboard. Cut it around the plants you want to keep, like your roses, then add mulch on top. The cardboard will eventually break down into your soil but it will stop any unwanted plants from growing. I have a front yard with a slope, so I do put big rocks to keep the cardboard from moving but my back yard, I just lay the cardboard flat, with a little over lapping. I just check it every year to ser if I need to put more down. Its cheap free and easy to use. Hope this helps.

[@SonetLandman]

My neighbour across the street did it and I was wondering what she was doing. Thank you for tip and explanation.

[@maureenmunro2826]

Great tip. I use cardboard to create new garden beds in the fall….cardboard on top of grass top with compost and in the spring I have a new garden to plant.

[@luludust]

Never thought of doing this! Thanks for the tip!

[@mirjam1973]

Yes! Very good idea😊

[@susanvelez6534]

Dear Elise, I wanted to express how impressed I am with the stunning hand-embroidered pieces in your thrift stores. It brings me such joy to see them, especially since I can rarely find anything like that in my area. This video was a beautiful way to end my week. On a personal note, my partner is scheduled to have a transplant next week due to his cancer. While I’m feeling scared, I’m doing my best to stay strong for him. I’m also sorry to hear about your boyfriend’s loss. Thank you for sharing this lovely video.

[@kimberly4120]

Watching someone take their last breath Elise is something that truly feels like it is a moment when the whole world stands still. We do continue on and life continues on yet life is forever changed as are we. Take that moment as you say to slow down even if for only a moment. You propel forward at your pace and your spirit is so beautiful. My deepest thoughts to both you , your boyfriend and all those who have felt this loss. God bless you .

Mint is so hard to get rid of in the garden. I ripped it all out and still see it pop up in random places once in a while. I have to be very diligent and dig up any runners around the plant. I did save some to put in pots because I love the plant in spite of its invasive ways. I have to keep the pot on cement because it will eventually try to grow out of the hole in the bottom of the pot 😂

Those vintage covered soup tureens are nice to hold bracelets, or seed packets, small tools or tea and hot cocoa. ❤️❤️ I'm sorry for your boyfriend's loss.🙏🏻💔Hugs and prayers to you both.

[@ehpeachylove]

I loved that painting that had such great texture, I love tureens and feel it’s sad they are not used too often anymore. They were great when families sat at the table at dinner times . I still our foods in pretty bowls and platters. I have a collection of birds too. I love the victory coat on you, the way you style your clothes always makes anything you put on look amazing. The clothes you found are beautiful. That scarf was gorgeous and even if not always used as intended would look great as a table topper over a a plain tablecloth too. It’s very eye catching. Well today is the first day that it feels like Autumn. A cold wind but clear skies . The scenic drive was lovely. Loved your painting in your pink frame . Loss of a family member or friend is hard and brings to surface a lot of emotions. I loss my mum last week in Feb this year and grief is emotional. Sending you love and light. Thank you for being so open and honest . ❤❤❤ condolences to your boyfriend and family too. 🙏🙏🙏✨🤗😘

❤ I think that the purple velvet trimmed brocade jacket is my favourite of all the ones you have found over the years - I would have a hard time giving it up. Love the long plaid jacket❤ both style ways look really good, but if I had to choose I would say with the look with the trousers is my preference. You found so many treasures on your trip.
