Omg! That Kate Spade dress is such a WIN! 💃🌿

[@LindaVater]

I know!

[@debbiew7496]

A comment to appreciate Stuart’s camera skills. He never speeds around with the shots to make us dizzy. 💕

[@LindaVater]

He’s the best!

[@plantjoy365]

I totally agree! Some channels make me seasick with their filming. I love how Stuart is moved by what he is filming. Sir Stuart seems to laugh, exclaim and asks questions authentically about the topic at hand while filming.

[@coloraturaElise]

That trio of glass candle sticks was really elegant, and that dress was great!

[@wildflowers494]

I just love that you take us with you when you do things in your house or out in the garden and also thrifting! Thank you it’s so fun!

[@annamorreale9458]

Hi Linda. Love all your thrifted items you bought. The red dress looks gorgeous on you too. I really enjoyed this video. Anytime someone goes thrifting it is a good video to watch. 👍🏻❤️

[@LindaVater]

I agree!

[@robbijj]

Linda that dress is just adorable on you! Loved this video, and I am taking inspiration from your decor styling ideas, especially lining the bowls with an inner glass bowl. Just beautiful!

[@cindywooldridge9032]

That dress!!!! I scored a Dana Buchman jacket at Goodwill for $4.99. I almost died!! Please do more thrift videos for garden items = you inspire me so much>

[@LindaVater]

Will do!

[@Itsmebella738]

I just love your goodwill finds happy holidays Linda and Stuart ! 🎄❤️😊

[@suzannebiehle5672]

I love these videos because they inspire so many ideas! I’m really trying hard to not spend so much lately and your voice in my head saying to thrift from your own home and is working! I already have some great vessels to fill with greenery and berries for the holidays and my hubs and I foraged for some pretty greens,berries and branches and voila, I have what I need without spending a dime! Thanks for the inspiration!🥰

[@sharonmclaughlin2258]

Love the dresses and coat!! Great inspiration with the candle stick & Christmas tree and the bowl of fruit & tree!

[@marilynmourdock3688]

I found an antique pink Hall teapot at Goodwill for $2.79 that I filled with assorted herbal tea bags to give to my sister. Then I wrapped it in a pretty pink and cream tea towel.

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

Those Magic Sliders are the best! I can even move furniture by myself!!!!

[@kathleenjohnson3186]

You look beautiful in your Kate Spade dress! And with the boots, it reminds me of Nancy Sinatra “These Boots are Made for Walking”! 😂

[@LindaVater]

Yes!

[@kaylac3367]

I love all of your thrifted finds! But also your ideas of what to do with them. You have such gret creativity! You've inspired me to check out my local thrift stores!

[@LindaVater]

I’m so pleased!

[@brianabouttown256]

You can make anything look good! What a classy and elegant take on your finds

[@margaretfrise8047]

Ah, the basement. Still waiting to see that, and how you store all your treasures.. LOL.

[@LindaVater]

I’ll show again!

[@valjohnson5835]

You really are my inspiration Linda. I have a whole set of Spode Christmas dishes this year because of your home tour last year. I love how kind and thoughtful you are toward the people you love and hold dearly. You look gorgeous in that Kate Spade dress. Well done 👏

[@LindaVater]

Thank you dear

[@joydaniel597]

Wow I’m just in awe with all your thrifted finds! I wish I have a nice good will store like yours.

[@salysellsss]

You are so beautiful anything would look good on you. We have pretty decent thrift stores here but your thrift stores seem to be a cut above. Great finds as usual! Stewart's mom is so lucky!

[@sharfinbean3362]

Great finds, I love to go thrifting. I’ve been doing it more and more. Thanks for taking us along!

[@reneel2502]

The Kate Spade dress!!!!!!! I learn SO much from these thrifting videos! What you're looking for and why. Thank you!

[@shelleyimmel8067]

You did great. That red dress is wonderful but I love the jacket destined for Stewart's, Mom the best especially since it is reversible. I have a light weight reversible jacket that can go from casual to dressy I bought about 20 years ago and it still remains a staple of my travel wardrobe.

[@kimcarpenter6897]

I love that red dress on you!!! I love thrifting as well as my college aged daughters. 3 of them. Love the decor!!!

[@rebeccafrancis8227]

My BFF and I go thrifting every week just for fun. We have found some amazing buys and had fun to boot!! You look incredible in the red dress!!! Such a bargain too!!!

[@roymavistanner8399]

Very fun video, and Stuart is the epitome of a fun shopping buddy! In our 54 years of marriage my husband has never had a clue, or cared about any trends, fabrics, colour, decor.......you name it! We've never shared 'the shopping experience" that's for sure! He's the typical old half asleep guy you see sitting on the couch in the malls. 😂 He's pretty patient so that's a good quality anyway! LOL Love all the items and the Kate Spade dress was made for you! Gorgeous! Bet you were thinking, "START THE CAR"!! :)

[@LindaVater]

Lol! Hubs is the same way. Stewart is more empathetic because he has a young daughter :-)

[@marybrand8269]

I like to thrift jewelry and antique jewelry boxes. This year I collected about 15 to give as gifts with my jewelry finds for the younger generations. I love thrifting!

[@deborahbavas6514]

Love everything especially the Kate Spade dress! You looked gorgeous in it ,too!👏👏👏❤️

[@ellenoconnor1226]

Linda and Stewart!! This was sooooo fun!! I have been out thrifting quite a bit this week. Some top finds were lavender/raspberry-ish Hunter boots for $8 and a black wool boucle J Crew cropped jacket for $4. YAY!! But now I will have to go back out because of your genius idea of glass bowls as liners for my plethora of silver-plated bowls. I can't even talk about the Kate Spade dress. You look FABULOUS.

[@LindaVater]

Score!!

[@mechellemiles903]

You have such awesome taste on home decor, accessories, gardening, clothing, etc!!! Lots of great things and that Kate Spade dress is gorgeous!!! 😍. Thank you Linda and Stewart, I loved the dialogue too!!! 🥰

[@janreynolds3794]

The trio of candle holders are gorgeous…..and I LOVE the red dress!!

[@peggy1844]

Oh Linda, you need a granddaughter! When I listen to how much fun you have curating an outfit I can’t help but think what fun you would have with a granddaughter!! Tell your boys to get a move on!!😉☺️

[@LindaVater]

I do agree!!

[@janetgould6612]

Wow, you scored big on your clothing finds!! That dress looks absolutely adorable on you!

[@emguilbe]

Love thrifting 😊 Christmas gorgeous plates, Waterford wine glasses with hollies! What a set Paid $35 😮 Along with the vase Amazing 😉 Initially, I went for garlands and I hit the thrift jackpot! Found a Balsam Hill garland with lights 😅 I came home vacuumed it wiped it gently and put it on my front doors with a 10 cents velvet red bow 😂😂. I’m so thankful that we have these places Only in USA ❤ Love the dress! 😊 Thank you for sharing I did hit a likey like! 🎄

[@lisatague305]

You are such a beautiful , creative woman who looks good in anything . Fun video always love yours and Stewart’s conversations !

[@GardeningSpirit]

You have given me such ideas! I have to go to my local thift store now. And like you, I'll probably recognize some things that I've donated 🤣 I love those Ikea candle holders! The Kate Spade dress looks fantastic on you! This whole process of using a picture image reminds me of an inspiration board, and if you put it out to the universe it will come to you. 🎅

[@LindaVater]

Couldn’t agree more.

[@deekeene4273]

Love your dress, great score to wear at one Christmas party!!

[@beckybainer9019]

Linda and Stewart, BRAVO! Love your inspiration and so many ideas that are easily doable. Keep up the thrifting, it is so gratifying!

[@jillkeim3587]

Shacket, remember the old CPO jackets? That's what we called them in the 60's or 70's. I had a wool lined one that was my horse/barn jacket. Good memories!

[@LindaVater]

I do!

[@KayeCarterTV]

You find the neatest things. I never find clothes when I’m thrifting…❤❤❤ for some reason. Sending hugs, love, prayers and kindness. Another fun and favorite video of mine…❤

[@cathynefzger8287]

Oh, those are awesome finds Linda!!! The dress has to be the best, you look so cute in it. I would have a hard time giving up that quilt jacket, but I bet Stewart's mom will love it. We need to see her modeling it!

[@amyhoff1501]

That quilted jacket is right up your Alley, Linda , the dress is super cute

[@jeanniecollier6763]

Yes Linda, I see something on KZbin, Pinterest or in a magazine then I like to recreate the same with items I already have

[@PoetiqueMs]

Yes. I do try to recreate things I see that inspire me. Today it was your pinecone tree! I love it! I'm sure I could find a way to recreate it. Also, I love thrifting with you.

[@joliz1234]

Linda, that dress was made for you. You looked stunning in it.

[@jeanniecollier6763]

Loved all your thrifted items.

[@QueenAnnesLace13]

I am green with envy over that incredible red dress. It's Linda perfect!

[@chrismaraccini8108]

I love to gift thrift. I have the thrill of the hunt and the pleasure to give something that would have cost much more than I would normally spend.

[@stephenstokesberry3767]

I love your sincerity and ability to put clothes together and drifted home decor!!

[@LindaVater]

Thank you!

[@lindamiklos4964]

I love it!! Taking a break from decorating and watching this great video.🌲

[@1pixiegirl1]

It’s all so gorgeous, especially that great Christmas Kate Spade dress. Yes, in deed, yesterday it was all BBC about ebay and thrift gifts between my daughter a myself. These gifts are one of a kind perfect gifts for people that have everything they need. Winners!

[@tamaraeppley6426]

You look beautiful in the red dress and boots! I think the pink geometric dress is a cool 70’s vibe!

[@dignit1620]

I always find my soft peppermints at Cracker Barrel. Thought I’d share this tidbit.

[@LindaVater]

🙏🙏🙏‼️

[@sandrasinanian2710]

Absolutely! Saw a cover on 'Flower' magazine and had to attempt to duplicate it. Went nuts on Ebay finding a few vases and containers in the color scheme and went through what I had on hand and while it different it still provided the color and theme impact! Fun to do and why I am now watching your videos..just found you about a week ago...lots of great ideas for home and garden..YAY!

[@donnamullins2089]

Wow you made out like a bandit. Love the Kate Spade dress and the beautiful jacket for Stewarts mom. Very elegant. All your great finds were terrific. Thanks for the adventure.

[@BrightestBlessings7899]

Yes! Your beautiful Kate Spade dress is just perfect on you! Our thrift stores are not as well stocked as yours. If you look carefully, you will have a good chance to find a treasure. Yes, I have found gifts for family and friends, while thrifting. It is almost as much fun as growing things to me! Nearly. Brightest blessings to you and yours.

[@terimurphy9400]

Such great finds! Loved them all. I have given and received thrifted items. No problem with it in my family or circle of friends. We're all thrifters who love a great find including as a gift.

[@DianeML419]

Great finds! Especially that Kate Spade dress, score! Thank you again, love your thrift videos for ideas. I do look at images and then try to recreate them. Have a wonderful holiday season! 🎄♥️

[@pepper6253]

Wow what amazing score at the thrift store. Love the red KATE SPADE dress, it definitely you all over it. looks cool with the suede boots .

[@jeanferrill6304]

Love your thrifting videos😍. I love to thrift but am trying to be more discerning about what I bring home, I just don’t need more stuff at this stage in my life. I had to smile when you mentioned seeing things you returned/donated back to the thrift store! That has happened to me😊

[@LindaVater]

Lol!

[@CandyHolladay]

and me too!

[@rebacarmack8335]

Your family doesn’t mind thrifted gifts- I love it. I have sisters that do not mind thrifted- neither do I.

[@suehy4054]

I’m loving this video, and cracking up that you are walking around with a price tag hanging off your shoulder! I’m sure you’ll tell the story soon.

[@judymiddleswart9350]

Love it all!! What finds you found!! WOW!!

[@cindysmith1830]

Linda, loved your Kate Spade dress on you with the black boots!👍 Also, I lo e your thrift videos and sharing your tips. Have a great holiday!@

[@lindakovacs7904]

You would make a paper bag look good if you wore it. You always look so striking. Have the amazing holiday that you certainly deserve and mend well. Your creativity is so welcoming and that is how you make us all feel when you share all that you do. You make everyone feel welcome. Thank you for being you.

[@LindaVater]

Thank you dear!

[@youbetcha108]

Hi Linda and Stewart So inspiring to see how you put all this together. Really such creativity. I was at an art sale today and I really appreciate hand made jewelry scarves or home items. I was happy to find a few beautiful crafted things and they were reasonably priced. It’s nice to talk to the crafters about their art too. I put tinsel trees in my kids rooms every Christmas. With lights and decorations from their favorite shows. They made the rooms look festive and they are very inexpensive. Got years of use and still have them. The red dress was a real steal and something you will use a lot and in many different ways. You look terrific too! Thanks to Stewart for his banter and patient camera work! Love the Neru jacket too ! 🎄🎄🤗🥰

[@LindaVater]

He’s a gem

[@roberthaynie5292]

Fabulous you inspire us to go thrifting. Your taste is excellent and you have an eye for it. Loved your show

[@cherylmccorkle9715]

Great scores at the thrift store ! Loving your hair too!!!

[@LindaVater]

Thanks!

[@crystallbell5545]

Great finds. You can pull off that funky dress for sure. I love all the clothes.

[@sjerzgrl]

Your clothing finds are fantastic! My Grandmother loved Minnie Pearl and the tag hanging from her hat. I’ll put items on my table and shop from my table.

[@sandradee4470]

Oh my, that dress is amazing on you. You certainly know how to find beautiful things. Stuart's mom will love that jacket.

[@LindaVater]

I think so too!

[@kimbowers3607]

Excellent thrift ideas and finds! Your an inspiration! Yes I "thrift gift"!

[@deliamartinez3186]

I love the dress when you were demonstrating all your hall fines. I couldn’t wait , till you finally told us Kate Spade. Very classy! Thanks for the great ideas Linda and Stewart.

[@jeannettejohnson2572]

Absolutely take inspiration from KZbin, magazines, Pinterest, etc. !🥰

[@rubylongtine9933]

Thank you for today's thrifting video. I love all of the ideas you give with the decor tips, serving item tips and especially the clothing items. My husband and I have enjoyed going to more garage sales, thrift stores, estates sales these last couple years. We always come home with unique items. I have scored on some wonderful things and paid very, very little which is always so satisfying!. I have also shopped my own stash and used as a container to hold Christmas gifts for my family also. Thanks again!!

[@LindaVater]

👍👍👍👍

[@irenetovar7756]

Wow I loved all your finds, AND especially your Kate Spade dress. What a steel.

[@LindaVater]

Thank you!

[@cherylheywood7902]

Love that sweater. You look great in red. ❤️

[@phyllisbowen3698]

That reversible jacket that you found reminds me of one my Mother has. She adores that jacket. This is the second video I have watched of yours and I’m loving it. Love the camera guy Stewart, HI 👋

[@Cmallon81]

Love all your finds, especially the red dress!! I find it funny that everyone is “discovering” the shirt/jacket combination. Those have been around forever. They used to just be call shirt jackets or shirt jacs.

[@edstud1]

I love Linda's Christmas thrifting video!

[@elizabethnicke1095]

Loved going thrifting with you and how to turn finds into something amazing!! Because of watching your videos, I am now hooked on taper candles and holders. I have them spread throughout my home now for the holidays! Linda you really scored with the wardrobe items and your a natural model, everything looked so chic!

[@LindaVater]

Awww🙏

[@dianekoltunovich5944]

I love all your bargains. My favorite thing to do is thrifting. It's definitely the thrill of the hunt. You look fabulous in all your finds. Keep sharing all your goodies.

[@robincrivello3880]

Love the Kate Spade dress....that shade of red looks great on you!!!!!!

[@chrisprpich3278]

Omgosh what lively fines. The Kate Spade dress is gorgeous. 😊❤️🇨🇦🎄🎄

[@LFetterman7903]

❣️👍❣️👍❣️👍 LOVED THIS ENTIRE VIDEO! Your thrifting videos are always great! Many thanks, it was so much FUN! Hope you are feeling well, you look wonderful! Much affection from the city of Detroit!☺️

[@altheab.8907]

Great bargains, Linda. Love the dress….and the reversible jacket is awesome. 😊💖🦋🕊

[@marybeth4002]

Great Kate Spade dress - Boom! Kinda reminds me of Marlo Thomas too. The pink/black print dress does remind me of Goldie Hawn - Sock it to Me! Such fun this was :)

[@LindaVater]

Yes!!!! Marlo!

[@wwfarmhouse9055]

Great video!!! So many great ideas for us to utilize in our own homes. The Kate Spade dress looks gorgeous on you. ❤💚

[@LindaVater]

🙏🙏🙏

[@claireewing6188]

Yay for thrifted finds for the home and your wardrobe! It’s the first place I look.

[@kimirvine6310]

Yes the red dress is spot on cute .

[@lindaplunkett1864]

The dresses are amazing!!! I love all of your thrifted finds. I’ve been thrifting for years and always find unique items. And yes, I definitely gift thrift. Of course I also purchase new items to supplement the thrifted finds, but I’m always so happy to find the truly unique items for friends and family. I have a mid century modern house and have mostly decorate the entire house with thrifted decor and furnishings……so fun!!! I love your channel and you look well and relaxed. I hope your recovery has been complete and you feel like your old self😀. Happy Holidays to you and Stewart.

[@carabaland9202]

I love all of it! I am a thrifter and a gifted and no location is off limits for a find for family or myself. I love making tableau’s and just adding interest and fun to my house. And the fashion, I love how your eye sees the fabric. I see the cut first,and then concerned about drape,😅. I just love how you think, the things that interest you, I feel you need to create another book on how to create a curated and beautiful home.

[@gardeningforfunandlongevit6076]

Love that Kate Spade dress. Gorgeous 🎉😊.

[@patriciamoslow7040]

I did guess it , that is wonderful each of you many blessing in your new homes

[@sweethaven1929]

Linda you have inspired me to find a thrift shop , love , love the look of the red dress and boots ,

[@pegbro6163]

Love the red dress & you look fabulous in it! And I love going thrifting.

[@davelarsen3560]

I'm so excited to have found you today on Utube! Thanks for sharing all your ideas with me!

[@LindaVater]

Welcome!

[@terrihart2133]

You look gorgeous in that red dress and boots. I couldn't hear Stewart's idea. Darn. I could see palmagranete,s in the enamel bowl and maybe some oranges here and there. So much inspiration. Thank you.

[@noraflores9777]

Thrift stores have 50% day. Ours are on Wednesday. Now that would be a neat thing. You look beautiful in red as you do in all. Love your channel. Going back to see your other videos😊

[@jomoney465]

of course I stop the video and get a good look at what you have done inside your house ( love the book shelves in your bedroom ) and especially in your garden. I have even stopped the video and taken a picture with my phone, especially of the pattern of the bricks, so I can replicate. So the answer is yes, we are doing this with your great ideas !

[@jrob8071]

Thrifting is so great! In the chilly part of spring, wear that Kate Spade dress with leggings, sneakers, and a denim jacket! It’s so versatile!

[@LindaVater]

I agree!
