My hubby and I lost everything in 2019 because of an unscrupulous businessman. We lived in an RV until moving to Idaho about 2 years ago when we moved into a doublewide in a trailer park. This home had been lived in by destructive people and we have our work set out for us. There was no flooring, the windows are all cracked and the roof needs to be replaced. We had a hooker hole in the living room and knife slashes all over the doors and windows. I'm 70 and loving my new home and the possibi5it has given to us. Your place is lovely, like your attitude!!!! Bless you sweet girl!!!! Blessings abound when we look!!!!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That's an amazing story. I'm so glad you and your husband secured a home. I bet that was a lot of work and it sounds well worth it to create the home you now have. God Bless You! I'm happy you have your home. Thank you for watching my channel!

[@jemreandeau3583]

I love that you take pleasure in the little things, like a lone flower. ❤

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much!

[@janetsplanet4161]

The pictures of the dogs would look nice hung on the wall by the candles for the dark color painted seems dark and depressing, I enjoyed the gardening portion.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I'm glad you enjoyed my gardening segment! Have a great weekend!

[@tinaengle8989]

Loved all the plants in and outside ! The blue curtian looked awesome! That was a great hack with your white picket fence as you called it.great video~Tink

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Hi Tink! Thank you very much! I love having plants, it's great to wake up to and take care of them. I like the blue curtain, too, it's nice to change up things and make it work! That's the fence from the dump, I was so happy to get it rolled out and set in the ground. I always wanted a white picket fence, I got it now (sort of)! Have a beautiful night, Tink!

[@ACCOMPLISHEDSHEIS]

Nice home update. I prefer the color printed curtains in the center instead of the blue. The contrast looks too dark together. Love the garden update.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you! Yes, it is definitely a lot darker with the blue panel added. I like how the light slightly filters through, but it would be pretty to have a contrasting color added! The garden is a work in progress. I have one more fence from the dump, to add to the yard. Have a great day!

[@Linda-in9ns]

Cute channel! Nice and cozy your home! 🦋🪴

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching! I try to make my place cozy, it's small so that means "instant-coziness"!

[@natashadismuke1150]

Although all the different prints and patterns are too much for me its nice to see this in action! Thank you for sharing

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I enjoy playing with patterns! Thank you for watching!

[@ragdollpreppers2648]

I just loved this video ! I use those solar outdoor lamps as well and just love them ! Your new decorating inside looks beautiful.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you very much! The solar lights are fun and affordable. I enjoy fabrics and using them to decorate. I'm loving the table with the curtains!

[@Ms.LisaDawn]

Loved this video!! "Coffee Grounds" ☺️ We made our own little compost mix. You can use egg shells, coffee grounds, fruit peelings, weeds or leaves, vegetable feelings any food matter that you don't eat..and soil mix it up in a pile and let the earth worms go to work! We kept ours in a small vegetable garden, on the end where there was nothing planted. Take a rake, or shovel and mix away. Also any perishable foods that you can't eat, fruit, tomato, lettuce..etc you can add to the pile and let it grow , mix it, after its rotted through use it!! Just keep mixing and layering. Some even use tea bags.☺️ its cheaper to make your own biodegradable compost for plants than buying it! Anything that worms can feed on! We usually broke our egg shells up smaller pieces for compost! You can even add bread crumbs, etc..mix compost with soil. The rich compost helps fertilize the soil.💗 Giving me some great ideas!! I like solar lights. Especially if you have to travel in and out at night or just add light. Pretty accents. We were under A tornado watch yesterday evening and night. We have no storm shelter. Nor basement. Kindly odd West Virginia can't fight of tornadoes because we are mountains!!🌄 So thank the Good Lord we made it through. Other people have basements... If I had one I'd open it up for everyone during the storm if I had the room. We also live in a mobile home. They told people on the news to leave there trailors. We had no where else to go. Anyway... I hope you stay safe. Have a good weekend!! God Bless You!! And personally I liked the green cloth on the table! I love earth tones. Until the next video!!☺️☺️☺️

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Wow! I'm glad you are safe! I know what you mean about having to leave the trailer when the weather is dangerous. When ya gotta go, ya gotta go! Thank you for the info on how to compost, that's good stuff. I will see what I can do. The yard is full of earth worms! I like the green color but would like to use it differently, maybe on the sofa. I think it was competing with my Jesus picture!

[@Ms.LisaDawn]

I thought it matched well with Jesus's picture. 🌼 I'm sure you can use it beautifully on the sofa or anywhere you decide. We didn't leave yesterday. We had no where else to go. My area doesn't have storm shelters. There have been tornadoes and hurricane Hugo come through. We ride them out. Putting our faith in the Lord.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

The Jesus print is a vintage piece, I've not seen many. The colors are perfect, it's a nighttime setting with the moon peeking through! When it storms bad here, folks go to the grocery store or library. Putting faith in God is always a good thing! Have a wonderful day!

[@ragdollpreppers2648]

Yay! I missed your Tuesday ~ can’t wait to catch up ! Happy weekend, Sarah ❤

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

The Tuesday video got posted on Wednesday! I hope you enjoy tonight's video, too!

[@rebekahhansen1112]

You have a cozy, light and happy home. I do the same with layering fabrics etc. Using what i have. Almost everything i own is hand me downs or thrifted 😊

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I love thrifted items! So often they are made better than stuff I might find brand new. I love vintage especially. Layering fabrics make my space feel happy, I enjoy it a lot. Patterns and textures are inspiring to me, it helps me see things in creative ways. One of my favorite places to shop is at the dump! That's where I got the little fence!

[@caroljane75]

Might be easier if you just set the pod aside for the coffee to dry then it might just pour out. Worms love coffee grounds….and tea leaves. I let the tea bag dry on a paper plate then rip the bag open, pours out….less mess. Plants are looking good! Spring has sprung!❤️🧡💚💙🩷🦋🦋🦋🌼🌼🌼

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That's a good idea on the coffee, thank you! I didn't think about using tea leaves, I'll start saving those, too! Yes, Spring is here, the birds are chirping and making music. Have a great day!

[@naomiehall7556]

You may get more benefit if you grind your egg shells, mix into water and pour it around the plants. 😊

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Great suggestion, thank you very much!

[@LindaYassin-n8b]

Good video love every minute of it God bless you much love from Michigan ❤️🙏

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Awww thank you so much! I'm happy you enjoyed it. God Bless You and have a wonderful day!

[@KarenChamp-dd2xt]

Looking at your videos gives me ideas of how to organize things in my small apartment. Thank you.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Glad to hear it! Thank you for watching!

[@tamsenbrodin5819]

Happy Friday! What a pretty yard, it’s so green! The solar lights look great, and your picket fence is so cute. Have a great weekend! 🪴

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Happy Friday to you, too! The yard is green and so pretty against the blue skies. I'm enjoying the solar lights! I love the fence. I found it at the dump, and it was a great find, so glad to set it up! I hope you have a great weekend, too!

[@Nannygoat]

This weekend l am doing yard work and preparing food for a pot luck at church. Using 2 curtains for your office table looked nice. Loved your prints too. I live in a small space too. Organizing is a great tool.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That sounds like a fun weekend event to have a pot luck! I'm enjoying the curtains on the table. I like having the option to store things underneath the table. Living in a smaller home is a challenge for storage. I've been looking at upright storage units with doors but haven't decided on anything. In the meantime, I'm using what I've got and going to make it work! Have a great day!

[@margaretnation7464]

Im not a fan of mixed patterns in small spaces. It makes the room look crowded an your a nik nac person so it looks cluttered an dark fabrics make space look small. Well that's the opinion you asked for.😉 But as long as your happy with it ,that's all that matters. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thanks for watching my video!

[@rosalitamarie8836]

I'm not a nik nac person either. But having a cleaning business for years, I loved to hear the stories behind many of the customers nik nac's. They were often obtained on vacations, given by special people,etc. They truly become part of a home. Besides, those many extra dusting pieces helped keep me in business lol. 💕💕

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

@rosalitamarie8836 I enjoy the stories behind the items, too!

[@csc5410]

Hun, these are called "inside thoughts" for a reason--because they should stay *inside* your head. It's unnecessary to detail everything you dislike about another person's home. Just keep on scrollin'

[@margaretnation7464]

@@csc5410 she ASKED ,take your own advice that I DIDN'T ASK for.

[@heather-cs]

I love your videos! The way you drape all your fabrics looks lovely. Thank you for sharing.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you! I love color and patterns. I'm loving the curtains on top of the table, it's working for me!

[@Bitbit3427]

I love those tables with the lamps…. I love antiques. I’d have a house full if I had the wall space. You would have a great time at my house you would be wore out by 5 o’clock

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I love antiques, too! Things used to be made so well. I'm glad you are enjoying my Living In A Office Trailer series, thank you for watching!

[@darlenehudson7216]

Thank you, your videos inspire me to keep trying, "act as though it is impossible to fail".

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I'm so happy to know that! I love inspirational quotes. One of my favorite speakers to listen to is Les Brown. He has an incredible story! I think the quote in the video is from him.

[@twartist1411]

Love this video! So motivating!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much! I'm happy to know it!

[@nikkiblackwell9553]

Thanks so much Sarah for the inspirational quotes watching you rearrange your space motivates me to try to get my space in order as well. Thank you so much for the videos. Keep them coming.😊

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you for letting me know, I'm happy to hear it! Space can always be improved, re-arranged and cared for. Whenever I get into a rut, I step back and study a section of the room and think "What can I do to make it better?" That gives me a motivational jumpstart! If I had an unlimited budget, my place would have cohesive storage units with doors but I'm working with what I got! Have a great day.

[@csc5410]

Hey Sarah! Whoever recommended using your coffee grounds in the garden was definitely right-- you can also use your leftover K-pod for seed sprouting if you want to try your hand at that

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That’s a great idea! Thank you for the k-cup suggestion for sprouting seeds. I am still saving those coffee grounds! I’m going to make Mr. Turtle a tropical paradise.

[@peggyward9592]

Wow! You have had a busy week. The white fence is adorable and the perfect length. I loved the clear containers for storage.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you! Yes, I've been a busy bee! I got the fence at the dump a while back, so glad I brought it home. I like it a lot, I feel all fancy! The clear container is working great for the jar lids, glad I saved it.

[@sylviafigueroa3501]

I love you thrift finds! Awesome. 😊 your home is so lovely.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much! I love my little home. Shopping at the thrift store makes me happy. I enjoy finding treasures! I have been very fortunate to find nice items at affordable prices.

[@galels1]

Hi Sarah. Thanks for sharing such a fun video. I love how organized you are. And i really like how you used the curtains to cover the table so it makes for hiden storage under the table. And I love the print on the curtains.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much! These curtains were thrifted, I'm trying to remember, I think over 15 years ago. They have been wonderful. Storage is such a challenge in smaller homes. Sometimes I wish I had a "junk room" but I don't so I'm working with what I got! Have a great day.

[@WalterKolek]

Thanks Sarah, Love all your videos!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you very much! Have a great day!

[@judygriffing1276]

Hi Sarah! Good to see you and watch your lovely video. Your life seems calm and well-ordered and your home is charming. I like that! Not much going on in my world-it’s supposed to rain all weekend so I’ll be staying home. Take care. 👋🏻😀

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Hi Judy! I enjoyed making this video. I like making my home the best I can make it. It's come a long way from when I first moved here. So happy to have this life! The rain arrived on the Eastcoast, too. Rainy days can be fun "movie nights" to stay inside. I hope your weekend is good, Judy!

[@zanetag]

Love your channel and your home. Love the cozy vibes.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much! Smaller space living is very cozy, for sure!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

[@sabrinadevol1210]

I have used curtain panels for sofa covers and quilted throws as tablecloths. There are all sorts of great uses for sheets, pillowcases, curtains, quilts, and throws!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I love using fabrics to decorate with, too! A little creativity goes a long way!

[@Madelinechriston]

Hi Sarah! You are doing such a great job with the trailer! It looks really cute and cozy❤ I love the way you find uses for things that would ordinarily be thrown away. You make me believe that almost anything can have purpose. I did have to laugh at your mint experiment- too funny! But hey, you tried. Until next time…❤

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you very much! I love my little trailer home. I'm going to try rooting mint again, in the future. I've gotten some good tips on what to do, so the experiment continues! I want to make Mr. Turtle's outdoor space more lively for him! Make him a little porch paradise.

[@judyzocco1694]

Hi Sarah, loved how you repurposed the curtains. You have a nice organized place. I just moved into a small double wide and I'm trying to downsize alot. Great idea for the fence. Have a great weekend 🎉

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Congratulations on your new home! Downsizing is a big challenge. Yet it's a great opportunity to set up your space for you and to your liking. Make it beautiful just for you! I love the free fence from the dump. I have one more section to put up, still thinking where to add it. Have a great day!

[@DisabledandPrepping]

It all looks great

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you very much!

[@susieramick7202]

Loved your comforter rolled up and placed behind your pillows. You have great storage ideas. Be careful some plants do not like coffee grounds. Geraniums is one of them. I lost a few plants. Ask google you'll get a short list. Thanks for your home tour😊

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you for letting me know! I think I need to make a notebook of "Do's and Don'ts" with gardening. The comforter is oversized, so it takes up a lot of space! I'm glad I rolled it up! Have a great day!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you very much! I am happy you enjoyed my video, it was fun to make. Have a wonderful night!

[@kfitz192]

I love the way you use fabrics in your cozy home. I prefer the blue with the black curtains. Have you considered hanging them lower so they fall to the floor, same as the black pair? Of course you might not care to do that for privacy. Take care!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you! I enjoy how the natural light filters through the blue curtains. Had not considered lowering the center panels, thank you for your suggestion!

[@vickig2907]

Your home is adorable and cozy. I've noticed that your pictures are not hung on the walls. Have you thought about using command strips to hang them. Especially the Jesus picture and the 2 new dog prints would look amazing on the walls and free up space on the surface areas. Just a thought.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you so much! That would be nice to put up the pictures in a more "permanent" home! I'm looking for a slice of wall space that is tall and narrow for the dog prints. I have 2 options in mind, but not settled on which spot to use. We shall see!

[@MarieLalonde-xz8mb]

That's a good idea with the heavier comforter.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you! It's a neat way to "store" the comforter!

[@danilleworthen503]

Wish the blue curtains were longer. They are beautiful. I think I'd leave them up until finding something better.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Good idea! Thanks so much for watching my video tonight!

[@lindanizamoff7981]

Saturday, my church is having a retreat with a speaker, and we will have a potluck luncheon. I made a salad and peach cobbler to bring.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That sounds wonderful! Peach cobbler, what a yummy dessert! Have fun at your event! Thank you for watching my video and enjoy your weekend.

[@laurac5451]

Nice I thought I saw this and commented before but I don't know

It's a series I'm still developing. We are on Video #9 of Living In A Office Trailer and more episodes to come. Slowly but surely! Thank you for watching!

[@lauraburell5679]

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you very much for letting me know!

[@cowdogconnoisseur2809]

We have that same Jesus picture. It belonged to my husbands Grandma. We are in our mid 50s so that gives you a good frame (no pun intended🤪) of reference as to its potential age. I also have a sorta similar one that belonged to my grandparents and we sure treasure them.❤ Have a great day!☺️

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

I love that artwork of Jesus! I went the most affordable route when I had it framed (it was probably 20 years ago!). I've thought to re-do it with some matting. It was passed down to me, just like ya'lls Jesus pictures! I think it belonged to my Great Grandma originally. Then to my Mom then to me. I hope you have a wonderful day, too!

[@julieholbert6146]

Have good weekend ❤

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you for watching! I hope you have a great weekend, too!

[@christophervogt7456]

The wire fencing turned out great Sarah. Can't wait to see how your garden turns out. I have a lot of hostas in my yard that are just starting to reappear too. Unfortunately, the deer around here will eventually find them... They think they're part of a free salad bar! Lol! Have a nice weekend!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you, Chris! I did not know deers eat hostas, I'm learning more every day. I like the fence, too! I have one more panel to add to the yard. I'm glad I brought the fencing home, it came from the dump! Have a great weekend, Chris!

[@christophervogt7456]

@CareFreeLivingChannel The deer love hostas and tulips! ☹️ They don't seem to like daffodils. They tend to eat my hostas once they've fully developed! It can be frustrating, but it's just nature... 🙄

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

They must eat all the pretty flowers! I saw some solar light flowers at the dollar store that seem interesting. Deer won’t eat those!

[@kfitz192]

​@@CareFreeLivingChannelDeer aren't the only ones who enjoy Hostas! The leaves and flowers are edible and used in Japanese cooking. They're really good in stir frys or smoothies. The tasty flowers are beautiful on a salad

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

@kfitz192 Interesting! I'd not heard of eating hostas before.

[@karenjones1897]

Coffee grounds are an excellent compost ingredient and are fine to apply directly onto the soil around most garden plants if used with care and moderation. Coffee grounds contain nutrients that plants use for growth. (looked that up,) i've been doing yard work, so much left to do but rain is coming tomorrow so i'll be working inside. i have a lot of papers to sort and some will be shredded. that will go into the recycle bin. a suggestion to get some roots going - clip the stems a bit on an angle so if one side of the stem isn't picking up water, the other side might since it's a bit higher on the stem about 2 weeks to eye surgery. i'm dreading it because it is a slow heal and i will have to have 2 more some months later

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Hi Karen! I like learning about gardening. I'm going to make a compost bin, eventually. The rain hit hard this week. Thank you for the roots suggestion. I will try cutting on an angle! Paperwork is my least favorite chore to complete, but it's a necessity. I'm glad your procedure is soon, you will do great! Have a wonderful day, Karen!

[@kathycortez232]

Set you a bucket out side and catch you some rain water and water your inside plants I promise I will help I put my rain water in a jug You can take a picture of the plants and google it and it will tell you what you need hugs

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That's a great idea, thank you so much! I will give it a try!

[@sallyvassallo2247]

The mint needed to be put straight in the earth, and then it will grow ❤

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you for the mint tip! I thought it needed roots, but I'll try your suggestion!

[@GrumpyGrandma2423]

start getting small bags of river rock and line your ditch

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Hi Lois! That's a good idea. I'll have to work on that!

[@susieque1351]

I would put the curtain you have long ways underneath the other one. Looks good now but you wouldn't be able to see the folds. Love your channel!

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Thank you for the suggestion! I'm enjoying the "curtain table". I would like to make it "seamless". Thank you for watching my channel and have a great day!

[@susandouthitt2961]

Egg shells need to be crushed and mixed into the soil to help plants grow. Coffee grounds need to be mixed into the ground. Good luck

[@kimberlykelley2602]

Thank you! Congratulations on your new home! I'm glad you have little helpers for your renovation. It will turn out great! I'm in the beautiful Southern Eastcoast. Have a wonderful day!

[@tracieschrock9519]

i was looking for those prints, couldn't find the exact one but they are worth some $$ just being from that company 😉

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

They are very pretty prints! I think they were donated likely because someone cleaned out their parents or grandparents home and didn't know what they had. I had not heard of the Chelsea House before I'd gotten the prints, so it's new to me. Amazing to find something like that at the thrift store!

[@sherrycrutchfield2890]

Do you ever think about hanging stuff on the walls? If you don't want to use nails you can use command strips

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Oh yes. I think it would be nice to have some pieces on the wall. Dress up the walls a little bit!

[@susansmith493]

Aww it would have been much easier to weed the ac condenser garden patch PRIOR to putting in the little fence.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

True! Good thing is I can just pop that fence out and work! Weeding is a challenge this time of year because of the full sun. I have to be covered up so I don't burn!

[@lisaannsaikal8801]

Cut the bottoms of the mint and try again.... it's worth a try !

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Good idea! I'm going to keep trying. Maybe it will work!

[@CAJST-dh3oo]

I enjoyed watching your video.what is a chalk marker? What would you use it on? Happy Friday! Enjoy your weekend 😊 🦋 🌞 🌼

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Great question! It's like a piece of chalk but more fancy. You can use it like a sharpie marker, but it will wipe off, it's temporary just like chalk! I have some labels to put on jars or containers that accept chalk, so I'm going to try that. I hope your weekend is great, too, happy friday!

[@CAJST-dh3oo]

@CareFreeLivingChannel that is cool. It must be like the white crayon seamstresses use.

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

Yes, I think you are right!

[@caitlinross8601]

How did you come about making an office trailer your home?

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

That's a great question! I was renting a place that abruptly changed plans and decided to sell during the Pandemic. So I had to leave. Thank God the little trailer came up and with less than a month's notice to get out, I began the journey of moving. It needed some work, but I thought I could live in one room and fix up as I went along. I was wrong because it was completely infested. After getting that under control, then the cosmetic work began, and now I have my little home!

[@KarenChamp-dd2xt]

I think the curtain pattern on the office table clashes with the pattern on the carpet. Well you asked lol

[@CareFreeLivingChannel]

For sure patterns have a way of either coordinating or clashing! I enjoy textiles. See you tonight for the next video!
