Let’s go Thrifting Up North, Is it BETTER ?

[@donnamcmillan6950]

When I have an odd salt shaker or pepper shaker without a mate I use it as a cinnamon shaker because some people like cinnamon in their coffee or maple sugar is good too!! I enjoy your channel.

[@mamabrooke]

Hi yes , I have a few of them. I like that as well. I have one with pepper flakes, one with cinnamon and a different kind of salt that I like a lemon pepper one. ♥️🌸🐦‍⬛

[@islandgirl8914]

Get the book. Caribbean ❤❤❤❤always. That second vase was divine.

[@mamabrooke]

Yes it was very pretty 🌸🍃

[@kenyabrunson4985]

Your thrift stores have a lot of things I love! Glad you got those silhouettes -- so pretty! I was sure you were getting that beach scene! That sweater is definitely your color! Great finds! 👀 Thanks for sharing! 🌼

[@mamabrooke]

Thanks 😊 have a fabulous day 💝🍃🌸

[@cathiespalding2083]

Thanks for taking us with you! Sorry you couldn’t find much, but it was nice looking!

[@mamabrooke]

It’s ok it’s the time of year too , no one is doing spring cleaning or moving in the winter much 💗🍃🌸

[@109linbert]

I have quite a few silhouettes and when I spot them , it’s like hitting gold !

[@mamabrooke]

Karen know joke I have about 150 pair in a container under my bed , trust me I have A weakness for stilettos. I just don’t wear them anymore and GuessWhat!!!! today I was out and I bought another pair of pink ones brand new though why I don’t know I’m thinking of returning them I had up to 350 pairs down to 150 I need to get rid off those once as it is🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️I don’t work anymore this is what I do now . When I paired them down I picked my very favourites well how can 150 be my favourites??! lol . I have a A true fetish for stilettos. One day I’ll show on my KZbin . Not to talk highly about myself but I had a great set of legs so I wore nothing but dresses and stilettos, I was in corporate sales for most of my life . I just use my best asset . 💗🍃🌸

[@GardenHappy]

Oh how quaint!!! I have a collection of antique tea cups that have been sitting under the bed for 20 years! I really need to start enjoying them! Fun video as always Mama Brooke!

[@mamabrooke]

Thanks! Yes enjoy them 🌸🍃

[@candacedandrea5677]

At my farmhouse bedroom I have around 50 silhouettes on the wall. Love the way they look. Good choice sweetie, enjoy.

[@mamabrooke]

I would love to see that

[@chasingawaytheshadows]

You could make a "house spice" you use on a regular basis and keep it in a decorative shaker. I use garlic powder, onion, season salt, paprika, etc, mix all together. The orange plate and bowl look like Noritake. I have 3 saucers like this. They are pretty. About $20 each here in Colorado.

[@mamabrooke]

I thought of that too ,,that’s funny but then I thought I got enough stuff on my counter I have one with a sterling silver lid that I use for hot peppers flakes🌸🍃💗 great minds think alike

[@donnastadt4696]

I have used tea cups, pearls, vintage hats and gloves on a 4 1/2' Christmas tree...along with little tea canisters and accessories. Just open a cupboard door it's full of fun things.

[@mamabrooke]

You should enjoy them again

[@islandgirl8914]

[@DebbiesSanctuary49]

No wonder you thrift shop! I had no idea how expensive it is to live in Canada!! I don't understand it. Even here in the Us housing price is outrageous in the Liberal Blue cities while other cities are not. You certainly have great variety and such a large thrift store to explore. I love watching you and love your home...minus the plants, I kill every one I get.

[@mamabrooke]

Yes it’s very expensive in Canada and our taxes are crazy too . Homes in my neighbourhood starts for a small house for about 1,800,000 and up to probably 6 million 3 blocks west of me start at 4 million up to 10/12 million A small condo starts at about 750,000 like 500 ft.² . But also I really enjoy thrifting I’ve really not sold on all the stuff that’s coming in from all these foreign countries it seems cheaply made to me . So I would rather hunt for something old and make it new again. Just better quality all the way around.

[@DebbiesSanctuary49]

@@mamabrooke OMGosh!! I live in a rural city in Kentucky and I love it. I know an apartment complex Where they have !bed room for $750 per month that has big rooms open floor plan in the kitchen living room are. But the best part is that all the utilities are included and also the internet. It has almost no violent crime, descent schools. I moved here from St. Louis and i love it here, it's home. Maybe your friend should have looked a little south in US.

[@mamabrooke]

Well you need a green card or residents to live in this state if you’re Canadian and vice versa 🤷🏼‍♀️ you know we are sister Country at so many thing but we are only allowed 182 days / 1/2 a year in America a year that’s why so many Canadians go to Florida for the winter but they still have a home here in Canada .

Brooke, I was watching another You tuber Alexandria Gaiter who is also from Toronto she went in Value Village looking for ornate frames for her latest redo I swear it was the same one you go too most often. I had a chuckle I never remember her going in those stores before. I would have jumped on the black capped chickadee watercolor as I love bird art. I liked the black and white pictures and the yellow sweater some of those tea cups were really sweet . Enjoyed this latest video
