I love to thrift. I recently told my dad that all of the household stuff I will ever need has already been made and purchased by someone else and is waiting for me to find it. Reuse, reduce and recycle : )

This is how I furnished my entire home when I moved from the East coast to the West. And I have now redone it all with different colors and fabrics. One of my faves was a 1930's coffee table that was painted cantaloupe, which I did in fire engine red. It's now taupe. I also got a wrought iron dining set off the curb and covered each chair seat in my fave dress and top. They are now basic khaki. I love to reuse and recycle, and get my crafty fix while customizing!

I've been thrifting and flea marketing for over 40 years so there have been some incredible finds over the years. One of my favorite deals was a gorgeous antique dinnerware set from Germany. No idea of the maker or age other than the owner saying her mother brought it here from Germany in the 1910s (this was in 1980). I fell in love as soon as I saw it and despite still being in high school, bought it for my someday home. She charged me $10. A few years pass, I am in my first apartment, using and loving my dishes set. A few moves, a few years and while I still like it, I'm not in love so much so decide to sell it in a yard sale. I put $20 on it thinking I would sell for $15. In the first part of the day, this lady shows up and she's oohing and ahhing over the dishes. She told me she was an antiques dealer and she thinks these are worth way more than 20 bucks. She asked me to hold them while she went to her shop to look them up (this is way before we had the mini computers we put in our pockets). Two hours later, she comes back with some china bible of pricing and shows me the set with all the serving pieces I have is worth at least $500. She offered me $200, explaining how she will price them in her shop and that she hoped to sell for $400-500. I was more than happy to accept it. Wasn't the item I made the most on but definitely memorable for me because of her honesty and kindness.

I go thrifting weekly and love it! I was recently looking for some kind of shelf for our essential oils. I found a nice wood shot glass shelf at Goodwill for $5. Removed a gold strip at the top that was printed "United States Shot Glass Collection," and using my Silhouette Cameo, cut out "There is oil in the house of the wise" from Proverbs 21:20 and placed it at the top. It's perfect!

I've had to update furniture indoors. I skipped the spray paint and broke out paint cans, a brush for details and legs, and a roller designed to paint furniture. I just put a big piece of cardboard underneath, but garbage bags work too (you can split them apart and tape them together if you need to).

I just moved into an apartment and thrifted and DIYed all my furniture. We recently did our dresser too. In the living room I put down a used bed sheet I wasn’t going to use again (twin sized and I have a queen bed now) and put cardboard under the legs. I very carefully brushed all the paint on. Use thin coats and make sure to open a window for proper ventilation. Do 3 coats and finish with a polyurethane top coat. I got no paint on the carpet at all, but it did smell up the place for a day or two. After letting everything dry and moving the dresser to its place we washed the bed sheet and let our roomba go through the room to pick up any dust from sanding. The apartment looked a hot mess for a few days, but I furnished the whole thing for less than a grand including a brand new couch. Completely worth it. Just be careful inside and don’t use spray paint indoors.

They turned out so nice. We also found a gently used sofa with a chaise for $15, and two ottoman storage cubes for $4 each. My favorite though was fixing up and spray painting my parents old 70s stereo cabinet to use in our family room.

Great vid as usual. As a fellow furniture saver, please, please spring for a respirator mask if you continue to use spray paint. They're usually not far away from the spray paint section, are reusable, and use replaceable filters. They cost around 25 bucks- way cheaper than medical issues later. Take care and see you next video!

I love going to thrift stores. Before COVID hit in 2020, I was getting ideas, prices etc... and planning on having a pantry built in my 1940 house. Then everything changed. No pantry. In 2021 when things calmed down a bit I was at the local Salvation Army and found a solid wood wardrobe ( I think). 2 doors on top with 1 adjustable shelf and 2 drawers on the bottom. I took the shelf to Lowe’s and had 2 more shelves cut and matched up the stain pretty good. Salvation Army was less than $100. 2 new shelves and stain around $50. I’ve since added an antique pie cupboard to my kitchen that was less than $200. Everything cost alot less than the pantry I was originally planning for.

Found a solid brass Stiffel lamp that I had restored and rewired. Makes modern glam style look like kids stuff. Hard to find LE Smith glass canisters and an awesome vintage Hazel Atlas mixing bowl. My favorite find is vintage shelf pixies. All items that would go for so much more at an antique store. Vintage glass mixing bowls and Pyrex are the best. New kitchenwares aren't even half as good.

I am a new subscriber - love your videos!! A few years back, I found a brass floor lamp at the Salvation Army store for $14.99. I strongly suspected it was solid brass when I bought it because it was so heavy. Not only did it turn out to be solid brass, but Stiffel to boot!! I don't know what it would appraise for, but there is a dealer on ebay right now that wants $323.00 for that same lamp. I have one bookshelf that is dedicated to a collection of Capodimonte floral figurines found at Goodwill several years back. I knew nothing about Capodimonte at the time, but had an Italian boyfriend that spotted them first (thank God he was with me). I've also got a collection of hand painted German Bavarian, Austrian and Japanese plates that although are not particularly valuable, I find quite beautiful.

If you use the shallow, long and thin wire bin and a few adhesive hooks it makes a perfect mail holder

I always look for older well made wooden furniture and paint/stain it to match my decor. Baskets and dishware are items I also look for! Oh, old books also! 🎅🏼🦌❤️🎄🤶

I found a glass door cabinet and painted it an expresso brown. My first thifting project was a table and chairs. I found the chairs first and reupholstered them. Then i found a small table top, a large table top and a small step ladder and created a table and chairs.

Way to go, I’ve been thrifting for years and never knew about using the gel medium on canvas artwork. Thrift stores can have very different inventory from day to day so plan to go frequently even if you don’t find anything because when you score, you can score big! You’re right sometimes the darndst things are donated. Yesterday I saw a very expensive dog bath that was free standing that connects to your shower or faucet and it was huge, like for a baby horse rather than a dog. They were asking $35 and they retail for about $150 or more on line.

I love your energy. Ur smile is so beautiful. I love to do things on low budget but with class. I love your ideas. Although I just saw 2 of ur vids still I thought to appreciate u.u r doing great. Most of the DIYs use so expensive tools n paints that it's better to buy a high end product then a DIY. But u do cover this..atleast in the 2 videos I saw

Such an amazing idea with the art!! I absolutely loved that piece with her wall paint color. 😲❤❤❤❤❤ Another super cool tip I learned from Cas at Clutterbug- If you see an art piece you like but the colors aren't in your scheme, paint over the piece with the colors you prefer! ❤😊 Edit: "I would never buy anything new from Anthropology. Ever." 😅

Found a large dark, rectangular, chucky coffee table at a thrift store. Used chalk paint on it and a sealer. Added new hardware. Great coffee table with 2 huge dogs in the house.
